Polaritonic Materials: A Comparative Study on the Relaxation Kinetics in Fabry–Perot versus Plasmonic Cavities

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Comparing Fabry–Perot and plasmonic nanorod cavities reveals how the number of dark states dictates polariton relaxation. The high number of dark states results in a polaritonic bottleneck, while reducing the number of dark states enables to measure the polaritonic decay.

Two‐Dimensional Isotropic Spatial Differentiation Through Complete Polarization Control

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This work enables two‐dimensional isotropic spatial differentiation at planar interfaces over a wide range of incident angles by extending the output polarization from linear to elliptical. The choice of incident angle can be used to balance broader spectral response at low angles and higher edge‐detection efficiency at larger angles.

Soft Robotic Excretory Care Simulator for Nursing Education: Functional and Perceptual Biomimetics Approach

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.
