Cryogenic spatiotemporal characteristics and microevolution of 316LN discontinuous plastic flow

open access: yesCommunications Materials
Alloys exhibit discontinuous plastic flow (DPF) at cryogenic temperatures; however, the mechanism is not fully understood. The DPF on 316LN stainless steel is investigated via the digital image correlation (DIC) technique.

Nanomechanical Traceable Metrology of Vertically Aligned Silicon and Germanium Nanowires by Nanoindentation

open access: yesProceedings, 2017
Silicon and germanium pillar structures (i.e., micro- and nanowires) were fabricated by a top-down approach including nanoimprint lithography and cryogenic dry etching. Various etching parameters were tested to ensure a reliable fabrication process.

Beyond the Edge: Charge‐Transfer Excitons in Organic Donor‐Acceptor Cocrystals

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Complex excitonic landscapes in acene–perfluoroacene cocrystals are unveiled by polarization‐resolved optical spectroscopy and many‐body theory. This systematic study of a prototypical model system for weakly interacting donor–acceptor compounds challenges common views of charge‐transfer excitons, providing a refined conceptual framework for ...

Clean Up Behind You ‐ Novel Patterning Approach for Solid Immersion Lenses

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A focused ion beam (FIB) milling strategy enables rapid fabrication of solid immersion lenses (SILs) with smooth, debris‐free surfaces eliminating the need for post‐processing. The optimized pattern improves efficiency and surface quality. SILs containing NV centers are also investigated, confirming the technique's suitability for quantum and photonic ...

Effects of magnetic field topography on the ion thruster discharge chamber performance

open access: yesAIP Advances
It is the magnetic field topography that determines the ion thruster discharge performance. A three-dimension numerical model of the 20 cm ion thruster discharge chamber was established, and a particle-in-cell method was used to model the discharge ...

LL‐37 Driven Phase Transition and Stacking in Oligolamellar Gram‐Negative Bacterial Membrane Models

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work establishes oligolamellar bacterial membrane models to investigate how LL‐37 disrupts the complex dual‐bilayer architecture of Gram‐negative bacteria. Combining SAXS, cryo‐TEM, electrophoretic mobility measurements, and coarse‐grained simulations, it reveals cardiolipin‐driven phase transitions leading to bicelle‐like structures and membrane ...

Structure Formation in Butterfly Scales: Interplay of Genetic Control, Mechanical Instabilities, and Dynamic Material Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Butterfly wing scales are intricate cuticular functional nanosctructures. This perspective suggests that spatially varying material properties, cytoskeletal constraints, and growth‐driven mechanical instabilities shape the resulting nanoscale architectures created from single cells.
