From In‐Silico Optimized Microfabrication to Experimental Validation: Engineering a Tridimensional Epi‐Intraneural Interface

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An epi‐intraneural interface is developed through in silico optimization and a novel tridimensional microfabrication pipeline. The device integrates penetrating and epineural contacts on a flexible substrate. Mechanical, electrochemical, and in vivo testing in rat and pig reveal robust implantation, low‐threshold activation, and site‐dependent ...

Spatially Tailorable Liquid Crystalline Elastomer Alignment During Digital Light Process 3D Printing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, we report the fabrication of 3D printable liquid crystalline elastomer (LCE) structures with spatially tailorable alignment domains within the same layer. This work addresses the long‐standing challenge of preparing complex 3D LCE architectures with patterned functional domains to achieve nonlinear deformations. Fabrication of multi‐domains in 3D

Ultra-low Amplitude Variables in the LMC -- Classical Cepheids, Pop. II Cepheids, RV Tau Stars and Binary Variables

, 2009
A search for variable stars with ultra-low amplitudes (ULA), in the millimag range, has been made in the combined MACHO and OGLE data bases in the broad vicinity of the Cepheid instability strip in the HR diagram.

Multistackable, Domino‐Overlapped CNT Scaffolds Homogeneously Hybridized with BTO‐P(VDF‐TrFE) for High‐Performance Piezoelectric Nanogenerators

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A multilayer‐stackable carbon nanotuber (CNT) scaffold‐based piezoelectric nanogenerator (CPENG) with domino‐patterned CNT pillars presents high, stable output (12.3 V, size of 1 cm × 1 cm) over 2000 cycles, operates across a wide temperature range, and efficiently converts energy from real‐life stimuli through optimized CNT length, layer stacking, and

EFFECTIVE TEMPERATURE AND RADIAL VELOCITY OF THE SMALL AMPLITUDE CEPHEID POLARIS (alpha UMi) IN 2015

Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2016
We present the results of an analysis of 21 spectra of alpha UMi (Polaris) obtained in September – December 2015. Frequency analysis shows an increase of the pulsation period up to 8.6 min in comparison to the 2007 observational set.

Localized High‐Concentration Electrolyte with Water‐Miscible Diluent Enables Stable Zinc Deposition and Long‐Life Aqueous Zinc Metal Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A diisopropyl ether (DIPE)‐based, localized, high‐concentration electrolyte is developed to stabilize both electrodes in aqueous zinc batteries. By reducing water activity and promoting anion‐rich zinc‐ion solvation, it builds robust interphases at both the cathode and anode, ensuring uniform deposition, suppressed corrosion, and highly reversible ...

External Reflection From Two‐Photon Laser‐Printed Micromirrors Enables Photomechanical Actuation at a 90° Incident Angle

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Light reflectance increases along incidence angle and transmittance significantly drops around 90‐degree incidence angle. Here, we report two‐photon laser printed micro mirrors that redirect the skimming light beam into normal light absorption. Using this technique, light‐driven micro walkers and grippers are demonstrated by using grazing incidence ...

The structure of the Cepheid instability strip

The Astrophysical Journal, 1980
The properties of Ceipheids in the Galaxy, LMC, and SMC are analyzed to compare them with theoretical models. The PLC relationships of the LMC and SMC agree with theoretically derived PLC relationships when fitting of data is done by the maximum likelihood method. Differences in the two relationships can be ascribed to abundance differences.

Conformal Polymer Electrolyte Enabled by Nitrile Coordination for Long‐Cycle Solid‐State Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The replacement of α‐H with methyl groups markedly improves the compatibility between the electrolyte and lithium metal, facilitating the formation of a conformal SEI layer that effectively accommodates volume variations in lithium metal during cycling.

Linear and nonlinear stability of a quasi-geostrophic mixing layer subject to a uniform background shear

, 2018
The aim of this work is to shed light by revisiting - through the kernel-wave (KW) perspective - the breakdown of a quasi-geostrophic (QG) mixing layer (or vortex strip/filament) in atmosphere under the influence of a background shear.
