Can Elastomers Combine Stiffness, Toughness and Fatigue Resistance?
This review studies how the molecular and macroscopic architecture of elastomers influence their mechanical properties including: stiffness, stretchability, toughness, fatigue resistance, and damping behavior. By linking the structure to performance, it proposes design principles for advanced elastomeric systems that combine mechanical properties ...

The interfacial spin‐orbit interaction in single‐crystalline Fe1−xCox thin films grown on GaAs(001) can be continuously tuned via alloying. Using spin‐orbit ferromagnetic resonance, the authors find that the interfacial spin‐orbit fields exhibit a nonmonotonic dependence on Co concentration, with a minimum at 20% Co. ABSTRACT The discovery of intrinsic
