Multiscale Superhydrophobic Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework Coating for Static and Dynamic Anti‐Icing Purposes

Advanced Materials Interfaces, 2023
Ice formation is a major challenge for engineering systems. Superhydrophobic surfaces constitute an effective approach to address this challenge. However, in addition to complex preparation methods, surface texture‐ and chemistry‐related shortcomings ...

Embedded Ferroelectric Nanoclusters Can Drive Polarization Reversal in a Non‐Ferroelectric Polar Film via the Proximity Effect

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ferroelectric nanoclusters create local internal fields in a normally non‐switchable polar film because of polarization mismatch at their interfaces. That field opposes polarization in the regions with larger polarization and reinforces polarization in the regions with smaller polarization.

Adhesion Elastic Contact and Hysteresis Effect

, 2004
In this paper, we study the relationship between the pull-off force and the transition parameter (or Tabor number) as well as the variation of the pull-off radius with the transition parameter in the adhesion elastic contact.

Statistical Mechanics of Electrowetting

Entropy
We derive the ab initio equilibrium statistical mechanics of the gas–liquid–solid contact angle on planar periodic, monodisperse, textured surfaces subject to electrowetting. To that end, we extend an earlier theory that predicts the advance or recession

Corrosion and wettability of PEO coatings on magnesium by addition of potassium stearate

Journal of Magnesium and Alloys, 2017
Hydrophobic PEO coatings were fabricated in an electrolyte containing potassium stearate. The wetting behaviour of coated samples was studied using dynamic and static contact angle.

Monolithic Oxidation Enables Ultrathin Vertically Graded Tantalum Oxide for Low‐Voltage, Low‐Variability Memristive Switching

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Monolithic UV‐ozone oxidation of Ta forms an ultrathin Ta2O5/TaOx bilayer enabling resistive switching with a vertical defect gradient. A stoichiometric surface layer over an oxygen‐deficient sublayer promotes localized filament nucleation near the top interface, enabling low‐voltage operation, and reduced cycle‐to‐cycle variability.

Ambient‐Stable Transparent P‐Type CuI Transistors Via Room‐Temperature Pulsed Laser Deposition

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An in situ PLD fabricated AlOx${\rm AlO}_x$/CuI/AlOx${\rm AlO}_x$ sandwich structure enables stable CuI TFTs with a field‐effect mobility of 2.3 ±$\pm$ 0.7 cm2${\rm cm}^{2}$ V−1${\rm V}^{-1}$ s−1${\rm s}^{-1}$ and excellent ambient stability. Complementary inverters based on CuI:Rb and ZnO:Al exhibit rail‐to‐rail voltage transfer characteristics and an

Noise‐Limited Bit Precision in Ferroelectric Synaptic Transistors for High‐Resolution Neuromorphic Computing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Low‐frequency noise spectroscopy defines the resolvable conductance states of synaptic FeFETs by coupling read‐current fluctuation with usable dynamic range. The resulting noise‐limited bit precision establishes a universal, device‐agnostic reliability metric beyond the memory window, enabling quantitative benchmarking and rational design of high ...

Wetting and Contact-Angle Hysteresis [PDF]

Nature, 1950
THE study of contact angles and contact-angle hysteresis in the region of low contact angles is not easy owing to difficulties of technique. The contact angle, θ, is given by where θ is the contact angle measured in the liquid and γSA, γSL and γLA are the surface free energies per
