Quasi‐Periodic Surface Functionalization by Ultra‐Short Pulsed Laser Processing: Unlocking Superior Heat Transfer in Vapor Chambers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ultra‐short pulsed laser processing (ULSP) enables scalable, open‐air fabrication of self‐organized, quasi‐periodic micro/nanostructures on copper using 100 µm laser beams, orders of magnitude larger than the resulting surface features. Integrated into ultra‐thin, wick‐free vapor chambers, these laser‐functionalized surfaces dramatically enhance ...

Substrate Stress Relaxation Regulates Cell‐Mediated Assembly of Extracellular Matrix

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Silicone‐based viscoelastic substrates with tunable stress relaxation reveal how matrix mechanics regulates cellular mechanosensing and cell‐mediated matrix remodelling in the stiff regime. High stress relaxation promotes assembly of fibronectin fibril‐like structures, increased nuclear localization of YAP and formation of β1 integrin‐enriched ...

A general class of iterative splitting methods for solving linear systems. ETNA - Electronic Transactions on Numerical Analysis

Recently Ahmadi et al. [IEEE Trans. Parallel Distrib. Syst., 32 (2021), pp. 1452–1464] and Tagliaferro [Research Square (2022)] proposed some iterative methods for the numerical solution of linear systems which, under the classical hypothesis of strict diagonal dominance, typically converge faster than the Jacobi method but slower than the forward ...

Unlocking the Full Potential of MgAgSb by Unravelling the Interrelation of Phase Constitution and Thermoelectric Properties

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Persistent secondary phases govern the performance of many thermoelectric materials, particularly of high performance MgAgSb. In this study advanced microstructural characterization for unequivocal phase identification combined with transport modeling and statistical analysis enabled the quantification of each phase's impact, revealing the most ...

Domain Nucleation and Growth in an Epitaxially Grown Wurtzite Ferroelectric

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ferroelectric domain nucleation and growth in epitaxial wurtzite (Al, B, Sc)N films are visualized through in situ transmission electron microscopy. Domains initiate near the bottom electrode and propagate laterally with zigzag walls, while unswitched regions remain near the electrode interfaces.
