Digital Actuation Control of Soft Robotic Origami With Self‐Folding Liquid Crystal Elastomer Hinges

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐folding soft‐rigid hybrid robotic origami is enabled by liquid crystal elastomer actuators with embedded Joule heating and closed‐loop digital control. Digitally addressable hinges provide reversible and programmable transitions between distinct folded states while maintaining actuation performance at high cycle counts (over 1500).

2D Magnetic and Topological Quantum Materials and Devices for Ultralow Power Spintronics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
2D magnets and topological quantum materials enable ultralow‐power spintronics by combining robust magnetic order with symmetry‐protected, Berry‐curvature‐driven transport. Fundamentals of 2D anisotropy and spin‐orbit‐coupling induced band inversion are linked to scalable growth and vdW stacking.

Experimental Modeling of Forward Recovery Characteristics of IGBT for DC Circuit Breaker

open access: yesZhongguo dianli, 2021
DC circuit breaker is the main means to clear the faults in VSC-HVDC power grid. Before action of the hybrid DC circuit breaker, the IGBT in the transfer branch is in a state of zero voltage and zero current.

Carbon Contacts to Proteins Enable Robust, Biocompatible Electronic Junctions with Near‐Activation‐less Conduction Down to 10 K

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A robust solid‐state protein junction with a semi‐transparent eC/Au electrode allows photoexcitation of the bacterio‐rhodopsin, bR layer, to isomerize the bR retinal. The resulting photo‐response shows the protein is functional in the solid‐state junction.

DC fault protection structures at a DC-link node in a radial multi-terminal high-voltage direct current system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In a multi-terminal HVDC system, DC circuit breakers (DCCBs) are conventionally connected in a star-configuration to enable isolation of a DC fault from the healthy system parts.
