Charge‐Induced Morphing Gels for Bioinspired Actuation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a novel electroactive actuation mechanism that enables the gel material to generate substantial and reversible shape‐changing while preserving topological and isochoric (volumetric) equivalence. The resultant morphing behaviors can mimic the movements of muscle‐driven organelles in nature, including cilia‐like beating and ...

Machine Learning meets Number Theory: The Data Science of Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer [PDF]
Empirical analysis is often the first step towards the birth of a conjecture. This is the case of the Birch-Swinnerton-Dyer (BSD) Conjecture describing the rational points on an elliptic curve, one of the most celebrated unsolved problems in mathematics.

Microsphere Autolithography—A Scalable Approach for Arbitrary Patterning of Dielectric Spheres
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.MicroSphere Autolithography (µSAL) enables scalable fabrication of patchy particles with customizable surface motifs. Focusing light through dielectric microspheres creates well defined, tunable patches via a conformal poly(dopamine) photoresist. Nearly arbitrary surface patterns can be achieved, with the resolution set by the index contrast between ...

Quantifying Spin Defect Density in hBN via Raman and Photoluminescence Analysis
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.An all‐optical method is presented for quantifying the density of boron vacancy spin defects in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). By correlating Raman and photoluminescence signals with irradiation fluence, defect‐induced Raman modes are identified and established an relationship linking optical signatures to absolute defect densities. This enables direct
