To address functionality limitations in plant‐based and industrially compostable polymer aerogels, this work introduces bio‐inspired aerogels with broadened functionality. Inspired by functional plant tissues, lightweight biopolymer aerogels based on exclusively stereocomplex crystals are fabricated, featuring hierarchically macro‐/meso‐porous ...

Influence of zonular tension on molecular transport in the porcine ocular lens
IntroductionAccommodation is the process of changing the ocular lens’ refractive power and focal distance. This process involves application of biomechanical forces on the lens by the surrounding musculature.

MRI study of the changes in crystalline lens shape with accommodation and ageing in humans [PDF]
Magnetic Resonance Imaging was used to study changes in the crystalline lens and ciliary body with accommodation and aging. Monocular images were obtained in 15 young (19-29 years) and 15 older (60-70 years) emmetropes when viewing at far (6m) and at ...

Interface‐Mediated Catalysis for Improved Hydrogen Storage in Reactive Hydride Composites
Catalyst–hydride interfaces are engineered in Co@C‐ and Ni@C‐modified 2LiH + MgB2 reactive hydride composites to accelerate hydrogen uptake and release. Multiscale scattering, in‐situ synchrotron radiation powder x‐ray diffraction and density functional theory calculations reveal the structural and electronic origin of the catalytic enhancement ...

Simultaneously measuring ocular aberration and anterior segment biometry during accommodation [PDF]
In the human eye, accommodation is essential for functional vision. However, the mechanisms regulating accommodation and the ocular parameters affecting aberrations remain to be explored.

Plasmon‐Enhanced Second‐Harmonic Generation in Atomically Thin Crystalline Silver Nanostructures
Atomically thin crystalline silver films combine vertical quantum confinement with lateral plasmonic field enhancement to boost second‐harmonic generation. Nanoribbon and nanotriangle arrays enable geometry‐tunable infrared plasmon resonances, producing strong SHG from deeply subwavelength metallic volumes compatible with silicon‐based nanophotonics ...

Chiral Phonon–Driven Ultrafast Spin Currents in a Non‐Magnetic Ferroelectric
Broadband terahertz emission spectroscopy shows signatures of ultrafast spin‐current generation in non‐magnetic ferroelectric β$\beta$’‐In2Se3${\rm In}_2{\rm Se}_3$. Reversal of the emitted field upon sample inversion and substitution of Pt with W indicates spin‐Hall‐mediated charge conversion, while polarization‐resolved measurements reveal ...

Remote catalytic dehydrogenation enables the direct growth of monolayer amorphous carbon on a 2‐inch sapphire wafer by thermal CVD. Spatial separation of the catalyst from the growth substrate eliminates metallic residue and post‐growth processing, yielding a wafer‐scale uniform film with a random polygonal sp2‐hybridized carbon network that exhibits ...
