Elasticity‐Driven Periodic Polarization Patterns in a Chiral Ferroelectric Nematic Fluid
Chiral polar ferroelectric nematic fluids exhibit spontaneous formation of stripe, square, and hexagonal polarization textures under confinement. Controlled by thickness and anchoring, these patterns produce spatially modulated nonlinear optical responses.

Epitaxially Integrated Electro‐Optic KNbO3 Thin Films on Silicon
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 ...

Sub‐nm2 Ferroelectric Domains via Charged 180° Walls in ZrO2
Ferroelectric ZrO2${\rm ZrO}_2$ thin films host closely spaced charged 180∘$^{\circ }$ domain walls that vertically compress polar domains beyond their lateral half‐unit‐cell limit. These head‐to‐head and tail‐to‐tail walls show distinct bulk‐like structures, natural oxygen‐mediated stabilization, and highly asymmetric mobility, highlighting new ...

Plasmon‐Enhanced Second‐Harmonic Generation in Atomically Thin Crystalline Silver Nanostructures
Atomically thin crystalline silver films combine vertical quantum confinement with lateral plasmonic field enhancement to boost second‐harmonic generation. Nanoribbon and nanotriangle arrays enable geometry‐tunable infrared plasmon resonances, producing strong SHG from deeply subwavelength metallic volumes compatible with silicon‐based nanophotonics ...

Chiral Phonon–Driven Ultrafast Spin Currents in a Non‐Magnetic Ferroelectric
Broadband terahertz emission spectroscopy shows signatures of ultrafast spin‐current generation in non‐magnetic ferroelectric β$\beta$’‐In2Se3${\rm In}_2{\rm Se}_3$. Reversal of the emitted field upon sample inversion and substitution of Pt with W indicates spin‐Hall‐mediated charge conversion, while polarization‐resolved measurements reveal ...

Dense tactile streams from across the humanoid body converge on collide in a central wiring and data bottleneck. By relocating computation closer to and then into the skin itself, near‐ and in‐sensor architectures, together with neuromorphic computing, chart a path toward perception‐native electronic skin, in which the conversion of stimulus into ...

Copper electroplating transforms lightweight 3D‐printed TPMS polymer lattices into effective electromagnetic shields. Topology, relative density, and conductive seed layer continuity govern copper penetration, electrical resistance, and attenuation. SEA consistently exceeds SER, while 35% RD Diamond lattice gives the best performance, reaching 48.72 dB
