Dual‐Functionality, Bio‐Friendly Artificial Muscles for Actuation and Motion Sensing in Smart Wearable Systems

Small, EarlyView.
This work presents a biofriendly carbon nanotube yarn artificial muscle operating either as an in‐air unipolar actuator or as a self‐powered ionotronic strain sensor. Using a non‐volatile eutectogel‐derived electrolyte, the system achieves up to 2.9% contraction and 0.5 mV/% strain sensing sensitivity.

A Polar Topology Network Induces Elastic Stiffening in Ferroelectric Oxide Superlattices

Small, EarlyView.
The periodicity in BiFeO3/SrTiO3 superlattices tunes the system into a dense, elastically constrained polar texture state. This topology‐rich regime reveals a collective mechanical response in which interactions among polar topological defects restrict local deformations, producing a pronounced elastic stiffening.

Anisotropy Thermal Properties of Electrically Insulating Thin Films and Sheets: A Review

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Thermally conducting and electrically insulating materials with anisotropy properties play an integral role in advanced thermal management, in particular for electronic devices. This review discusses recent progress in enhancing thermal conductivity and controlling the thermal anisotropy between in‐plane and cross‐plane (through‐thickness) directions ...

Polynomial‐shaped electrodes for adaptive X‐ray optics

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
A shaped electrode design for lithium niobate adaptive X‐ray mirrors connects actuator degrees of freedom to specific polynomial orders, enabling general shape control and the correction of defocus, coma and fourth‐order aberrations with a limited number of inputs.For adaptive mirrors on X‐ray beamlines and optical systems, we describe a strategy for ...
