Mode‐Resolved Phonon Dynamics Under Chemical Pressure in SnTe Thermoelectrics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chemical pressure reshapes low‐energy optical phonons in SnTe, altering their dispersion and scattering with heat‐carrying acoustic modes. Positive and negative pressure states modify phonon frequencies and lifetimes in distinct ways, revealing how mode‐selective lattice perturbations regulate acoustic–optical interactions and suppress lattice thermal ...

Multifunctional Matrix‐Activated Electrodes Enabling Efficient Proton Transport and Durable Low‐Pt Operation for High‐Temperature Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a CeHP‐enabled multifunctional matrix‐activated electrode (MME) for high‐temperature PEM fuel cells, forming an electrochemically and mechanically functional matrix within the catalyst layer. The design increases peak power density by 38% and reduces voltage decay by 62% at 240 °C, while using only 40% of the Pt loading of a ...

Hydrogen‐Bonding Order Associated With Radical Delocalization in Layered Organic Cathode Materials

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
“TAQ” and TAPT share the same pyrazine‐based molecular structure but differ in degree of crystallinity. Combined x‐ray scattering, solid‐state NMR, MicroED, and EPR reveal that “TAQ”'s higher crystallinity and ordered hydrogen‐bonding network are associated with enhanced radical delocalization and conductivity, highlighting structural order as a design

A Two‐Stage Characterization Pipeline and Open‐Source Framework for Reproducible Tactile Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The same soft tactile sensor returns different numbers when embodied in different robots. This is an Embodiment Gap that no shared framework currently captures transparently. A two‐stage characterization pipeline, paired with a FAIR open‐source digital datasheet, decouples intrinsic sensor behavior from embodiment effects and condenses cross‐laboratory

Dynamic Obstacle Avoidance of Metamorphic Microrobots Using Concentric Sector Navigator

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Metamorphic magnetic microrobots are navigated using a concentric sector navigator for dynamic obstacle avoidance in both microroller and swarm states. After microroller transport, citrate‐triggered dissolution releases nanoparticles that reassemble into a controllable swarm.

Motion and Morphology Planning for Autonomous Manipulation in Clutter With a Shape‐Shifting, Variable‐Stiffness Robot

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A hybrid mobile robot with a modular Variable‐Stiffness Bridge transitions between a rigid locomotion platform and a flexible, shape‐conforming body. By enclosing objects within its deformable structure rather than relying on dedicated end effectors, the robot achieves orientation‐regulated planar transport, with conformal contact quality shown to ...
