A Full Physical Strategy for Electrical Contacts on Laser‐Induced Graphene (LIG) Electrodes

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A fully dry fabrication strategy combining PVD and dual‐laser processing enables direct integration of laser‐induced graphene with metallic current collectors. Ultralow Au‐LIG contact resistance is achieved without binders, adhesives, or chemical treatments, while preserving electrochemical performance.

Experimental and Theoretical Study on the Flexural Mechanism of Spliced Timber Columns Under Four-Point Bending Loading

Buildings
To study the effects of different spliced forms and spliced lengths on the flexural performance of traditional spliced timber columns, four-point bending tests were conducted. A total of 14 specimens were designed across three groups, including one group

Colossal Modulation of Mechanical Resonance with temperature in single‐Crystalline SrTiO3 Microbridges Integrated on Silicon

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
The structural characteristics and resonant mechanical behavior of suspended microbridges comprised of single‐crystalline SrTiO3 that has been grown on silicon are presented. Due to differences in thermal expansion between the SrTiO3 and silicon, we find that the resonant frequencies of the microbridges are not only enhanced, but also hyper‐sensitive ...

A Multimodal Piezoelectric Vertical Sidewall Architecture for Scalable In‐Plane NEMS Resonators

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A vertical in‐plane piezoelectric resonator design shifts frequency tuning from film thickness to lithographic lateral definition, facilitating monolithic multiband integration. Initially validated via microscale length‐extensional resonators, this cavities‐first fabrication approach scales to the nanoscale for high‐frequency operation.

Characterizing Biopolymer Electrolytes in Zinc–Air Batteries: Challenges, Best Practices, and a Robust Workflow Guiding Future Research Paths

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based gel polymer electrolytes promise sustainable, mechanically adaptable zinc–air batteries, yet their progress is constrained by inconsistent characterization. This review critically links formulation, structure, interfaces, and cell performance, identifies methodological gaps under alkaline operating conditions, and proposes application ...
