Salt Water Drops Slide Faster: Ionic Modulation of Drop Friction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Salt ions markedly accelerate water drops on conductive substrates coated with nanometer‐thin hydrophobic layers. Across diverse electrolytes and surfaces, higher ion concentration consistently lowers kinetic friction by reducing contact angle hysteresis.

Tunable Sound Absorption via Evanescent‐Wave Coupling in Asymmetric Bilayer Metasurfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tunable sound absorption is realized through a bilayer metasurface system governed by evanescent‐wave coupling. This work demonstrates that such evanescent‐wave coupling provides a controllable scattering channel that destructively interferes with the specular reflection.

In‐Wheel Piezoelectric DC Power Generator With Zero Resistive Torque

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this paper, we present a wheel‐shaped direct‐current piezoelectric generator (DC‐PG) that fundamentally overcomes these constraints by producing phase‐stable DC electricity directly from rolling motion. By embedding this system into suitcase wheels, we demonstrated a fully integrated real‐time location tracking system powered solely by mechanical ...

Exploring Linkages Between Rule of Law Backsliding and Human Rights: How to Find the Brakes on a Slippery Slope?

open access: yesUtrecht Law Review
Backsliding is a global phenomenon that does not only occur in terms of the level or quality of democracy. It also can be traced in an, often deliberate, weakening of the rule of law and a connected deterioration of human rights protection. We argue that

Recent Progress and Opportunities in Oxide Semiconductor Devices for In‐Memory and Neuromorphic Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
This review surveys oxide‐semiconductor devices for in‐memory and neuromorphic computing, highlighting recent progress and remaining challenges in charge‐trap, ferroelectric, and two‐transistor devices. Oxide semiconductors, featuring ultra‐low leakage, low‐temperature processing, and back‐end‐of‐line compatibility, are explored for analog in‐memory ...
