Generalized finite-time optimal control framework in stochastic thermodynamics

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
Optimal processes in stochastic thermodynamics represent a frontier for understanding the control and design of nonequilibrium systems, with broad practical applications in biology, chemistry, and nanoscale/mesoscale systems. Optimal transport theory and

Recent Progress in the Phase‐Controlled Synthesis of Ruthenium Nanocrystals for Catalytic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Template effect and kinetic control enable crystal‐phase engineering of Ru nanocrystals, granting access to either metastable fcc‐Ru or stable hcp‐Ru with distinct surface structures, thermal stabilities, and catalytic behaviors. Moreover, the hcp‐Ru can further serve as an epitaxial template to direct Pd and Rh nanocrystals into the metastable hcp ...

Epitaxially Integrated Electro‐Optic KNbO3 Thin Films on Silicon

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We demonstrate the first epitaxial integration of electro‐optic KNbO3 thin films on silicon using suboxide molecular‐beam epitaxy. Combining adsorption‐controlled molecular‐beam epitaxy, advanced characterization, and phase‐field modeling, we demonstrate phase‐pure crystalline films mirroring bulk crystals with robust Pockels response, enabling future ...

The Action Principle for Equilibrium Thermodynamics

open access: yesIranian Journal of Science
The action principle is introduced to describe the thermodynamic processes of the state functions from the initial equilibrium state to the final equilibrium state. To capture the path-independent property of the state functions through the thermodynamic processes, one requires an integrability condition called the Lagrangian 1-form closure relation as

Radiative Thermal Management for Extreme Environments: Mechanisms and Design Strategies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss the fundamental mechanisms of radiative cooling and solar heating, material and structural design strategies, hybrid approaches integrating additional heat transfer pathways, and durability‐oriented designs addressing environmental stresses.
