Geometrically Templated Dynamic Wrinkling From Suspended Poly(vinyl alcohol) Soap Films
When poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) soap films are suspended on 3D‐printed wireframes with near‐zero or negative Gaussian curvatures, a spontaneous wrinkling process occurs, attributed to an in‐plane compressive stress and thickness gradient. The growth of wrinkles is guided by the frame geometry and evolves dynamically; the wavelength and number of ...

The density and ordering of the bubble/skyrmion lattice hosted by Fe/Gd multilayers can be significantly enhanced using an in‐plane field to align the stripe domain state. As a result, the laser‐induced breathing mode dynamics are strongly modified, showing both an increased amplitude and frequency.
