Large‐Area Flat Optics Color Routing in Tilted Arrays of 2D Semiconductor Nanostripes

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
We develop a scalable flat optics platform exploiting self‐organised ion‐beam sputtering and maskless glancing‐angle deposition to fabricate centimetre‐scale arrays of tilted MoS2 nanostripes. The engineered geometry activates Rayleigh anomalies, guided modes, and Mie resonances, enabling highly directional color routing and enhanced light harvesting ...

Experimental and Analytical Studies of Door-Type Modular Scaffolds with Initial Geometrical Imperfections

Engineering Journal, 2018
In the study, the performance and structural behaviors of door-type modular steel scaffolds with different degrees of initial geometrical imperfections were evaluated through experimental and analytical investigations. Two one-story and nine two-story modular steel scaffolds were tested to failure. When the number of stories increased from 1 to 2, a 14.

Inverse‐Designed Superchiral Hot Spot in Dielectric Meta‐Cavity Toward Ultra‐Compact Enantioselective Detection

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Linearly polarized incident light with normal incidence creates enhanced optical chirality hotspots on the metasurface. Several orders of magnitude optical chirality enhancement offers a promising route toward highly sensitive, compact chiral spectroscopy.

Stiffness‐Programmable Origami Robots With Tendon‐Driven Actuation via Multimaterial 3D Printing

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Motion diversity is achieved in a tendon‐driven origami robot through programmable stiffness rather than modified actuation. Multimaterial 3D printing embeds soft creases, modular inserts redirect identical tendon inputs into distinct behaviors, and variable‐stiffness inserts enable real‐time switching.
