Upscaling Pulsed Laser Fragmentation in Liquids by Advanced Free‐Flow Setups

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Advanced flow setups providing thin colloid films are introduced to upscale pulsed laser fragmentation in liquids for sustainable nanoparticle synthesis. Their potential is demonstrated by yielding remarkably small ZnO nanoparticles of <7 nm. Numerical simulations complement the study, revealing that the superior performance can be attributed to ...

A Constraint‐Based Analytical Framework for Design‐Space Analysis and Material Screening of Tubular Multilayer Dielectric Elastomer Pumps for Extracorporeal Circulatory Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A constraint‐based analytical framework maps the coupled effects of material properties, structural parameters, and operating conditions in tubular dielectric elastomer pumps for extracorporeal circulatory applications. The approach defines performance boundaries through mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic constraints and identifies feasible design ...

Polaritonic Materials: A Comparative Study on the Relaxation Kinetics in Fabry–Perot versus Plasmonic Cavities

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Comparing Fabry–Perot and plasmonic nanorod cavities reveals how the number of dark states dictates polariton relaxation. The high number of dark states results in a polaritonic bottleneck, while reducing the number of dark states enables to measure the polaritonic decay.

Halide Defect Passivation in CsPbBr3 Nanocrystals Mediated by the Friedel–Crafts Reaction: Enhanced PLQY and Structural Stability Without Bandgap Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Post‐treatment of CsPbBr3 nanocrystals with an AlBr3/CH2Br2 solution does not induce Al3+ substitution at Pb2+ sites. Instead, a Friedel–Crafts reaction generates Br− ions that passivate halide defects, markedly increasing PLQY and improving structural stability without bandgap modulation.
