Can Elastomers Combine Stiffness, Toughness and Fatigue Resistance?

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review studies how the molecular and macroscopic architecture of elastomers influence their mechanical properties including: stiffness, stretchability, toughness, fatigue resistance, and damping behavior. By linking the structure to performance, it proposes design principles for advanced elastomeric systems that combine mechanical properties ...

Moiré Phase Mapping in Twisted Bilayer Liquid Crystals with Reconfigurable Light Polarization States

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Twisted bilayer liquid crystals are developed by vertical stacking assembly of two liquid crystals having designer domains and optical properties. These moiré‐symmetry, twisted liquid crystals demonstrate reconfigurable polarization states, moiré patterns and phases controlled by twist angles, providing a route to design active optical devices for ...

Introduction: Rethinking Freedom of Expression and Media Freedom

open access: yes, 2016
FROM THE INTRODUCTION: Freedom of expression is an essential part of democracy, and free speech goes hand in hand with a free media. Thomas Jefferson, the principal author of the American Declaration of Independence, wrote in 1816: “Where the press is ...

Alloying‐Controlled Tuning of Interfacial Spin‐Orbit Interaction and Magnetic Damping in Crystalline FeCo Thin Films Grown on GaAs(001)

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The interfacial spin‐orbit interaction in single‐crystalline Fe1−xCox thin films grown on GaAs(001) can be continuously tuned via alloying. Using spin‐orbit ferromagnetic resonance, the authors find that the interfacial spin‐orbit fields exhibit a nonmonotonic dependence on Co concentration, with a minimum at 20% Co. ABSTRACT The discovery of intrinsic

Freedom of expression, the double-edged sword

open access: yes
openThis thesis explores how freedom of expression, traditionally a cornerstone of Western democracies, is increasingly instrumentalized by politicians and corporations for their own interests.

Toward Pore‐Engineered 3D‐Printed Materials for Sorption Water Harvesting, Interfacial Evaporation, and Radiative Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Water harvesting, radiative cooling, and interfacial solar evaporation are fundamentally governed by coupled heat, mass, and light transport processes. These processes are mediated by pore architecture, including pore size, connectivity, and hierarchical organization.

Descriptors to Dynamics: A Materials and Device Perspective on in‐Materio Physical Reservoir Computing for Neuromorphic Edge Intelligence

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Intrinsic material dynamics are harnessed as computational resources for neuromorphic in‐materio physical reservoir computing. Defects, ionic motion, interfaces, percolation, geometry, and biasing shape transient states that provide fading memory, nonlinearity, and high‐dimensional projection for simple readout. A descriptor‐to‐dynamics framework links

The Concept of “Tolerance” in John Locke’s Liberal System 2. The principles of freedom and expression in John Locke

open access: yes
In John Locke’s liberal system, it is necessary to highlight the moral and juridical nature of the concepts of “toleration” (relating to the indulgence granted to the citizen) and “tolerance” (relating to freedom of thought and religious belief).
