Thickness‐Defined Transport Regime Toward Near‐Ideal Area‐Type Switching

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
By thinning the oxide layer, memristors pass from diode‐like and battery‐effect‐dominated behavior toward eventual short‐circuit failure. Within the intermediate 5–6 nm window, they reach a near‐ideal analog area‐type switching regime, featuring symmetric hysteresis, area‐dependent conductance, and continuous linear programming of HRS and LRS with ...

Millifluidic Synthesis of Core–Shell Resonators For Tunable Sonic BandGaps in Acoustic Metamaterials

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Millimeter‐scale core–shell acoustic resonators are fabricated by a gravity‐assisted dripping approach and incorporated into epoxy composites at controlled volume fractions. The resulting alumina–core resonator composites show tunable low‐frequency acoustic attenuation, demonstrating a scalable route for integrating locally resonant metamaterial units ...

High Energy Photon Induced Defect Engineering in Ultra‐Thin Indium Oxide Transistors for BEOL‐Compatible Logic Circuits

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Xenon flash lamp annealing modulates oxygen‐vacancy states in 1‐nm‐thick ALD In2O3 transistors within a single 139 µs pulse. The photon‐induced defect engineering shifts the threshold voltage, improves bias‐stress stability, and narrows device‐to‐device variation across 64 devices. Combining pristine and treated transistors yields NMOS inverters with a
