Emergent Freestanding Complex Oxide Membranes for Multifunctional Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 16, 17 March 2026.
This review surveys freestanding oxide membranes and covers fabrication and three pathways for studies and devices: strain‐free and strained membranes, and van der Waals‐integrated heterostructures. We show how coupled oxide responses map onto these routes and cross‐couple to expand behaviors.

A quantitative model of triboelectric charge transfer

open access: yesFriction
Triboelectricity, when rubbing or contacting materials causes electric charge transfer, is ubiquitous across many fields, and has been studied in detail for centuries. Despite this, a complete description of triboelectricity remains elusive.
