Multi‐material and dual‐stimulus coupled actuation micro‐gears for shape–rotation control in intelligent micro‐electro‐mechanical systems

FlexMat, EarlyView.
A multi‐material and dual‐stimulus coupled actuation micro‐gear (MDCAMG) is developed via femtosecond‐laser 3D printing combined with magnetic nanoparticle absorption, enabling integrated environmental sensing and remote actuation at the microscale. The device incorporates a pH‐responsive hydrogel matrix for autonomous swelling/shrinking and a magnetic

Molecular Palaeontology Prospects From Exceptionally Preserved Eocene Brackish‐Water Bivalve Batissa sitakaraensis (Venerida: Corbiculidae) From Hokkaido, Japan

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
This study reports the exceptional preservation of the Eocene freshwater bivalve Batissa sitakaraensis from Hokkaido, Japan. Multimodal analyses reveal that both the aragonitic shell mineralogy and the delicate organic periostracum retain their original structural and chemical characteristics after millions of years.
