Strong Lead‐Free Bioinspired Piezoceramics for Durable Energy Transducers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We fabricated brick‐and‐mortar lead‐free piezoceramics with Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 monocrystal platelets as bricks and amorphous silica as mortar. The alignment of the bricks and the presence of the amorphous silica led to anisotropic residual stresses. These residual stresses increase the samples toughness, strength and durability while the brick alignment ...

Studies of the crystalline lens using magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The eye lens grows continuously throughout life and changes its shape as the eye changes focus from a distant to a near object (the process of accommodation).

Functionalizing Micro‐to‐Mesoscopic Electrode Architectures for Regulating Electron Transfer Behaviors in Electrocatalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A systematic review is conducted to assess the influence of electrode architecture across micro‐ to mesoscopic length scales on electron‐transfer pathways in electrocatalysis. We discuss the structure‐activity relationships in electrocatalytic applications, including resource recovery and environmental remediation, and provide cost‐effective, efficient

Simultaneously measuring ocular aberration and anterior segment biometry during accommodation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences, 2015
In the human eye, accommodation is essential for functional vision. However, the mechanisms regulating accommodation and the ocular parameters affecting aberrations remain to be explored.

The influence of center of gravity and lens mass on rigid lens dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
PURPOSE: Center of gravity and lens mass have both been shown to influence rigid lens centration and stability. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relative contributions of these two factors to rigid lens dynamics.

Ultrafast Thermal Shock Synthesis of CuNiSnLa Medium‐Entropy Metallic Glass for Sustainable Nitrogen Fixation via Plasma‐Coupled Electrocatalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces an ultrafast thermal shock strategy to synthesize a CuNiSnLa medium‐entropy metallic glass (MEMG). The rapid heating and cooling process generates a robust, highly active catalyst for electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonia (NRA).

Meniscus‐Guided Soft‐Lithographic Assembly of Grid‐Type Molecular Martensite Films for Single‐Crystal‐Like Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A meniscus‐guided microtransfer molding strategy enables scalable fabrication of grid‐type molecular martensite films with b‐axis‐correlated preferential texture. Sequential growth across microchannel intersections creates structurally continuous grids and robust thermoelastic actuation (∼11% strain, > 50 cycles, maximum force density: 7.1 × 109 N m−3).

Misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis: Occult lens subluxation in eyes presenting with acute angle closure glaucoma

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology. Case Reports
Anterior subluxation of the crystalline lens can precipitate acute secondary angle closure with a rapid rise in intraocular pressure mimicking an attack of acute primary angle closure glaucoma.

Transient crystalline lens deposits following the insertion of a phakic sulcus-fixated collamer intraocular lens in a hyperopic eye

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2020
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to report crystalline lens deposit formation following ICL implantation for the correction of hyperopia. Observations: A 23-year-old male presented at the American University of Beirut Medical Center in 2008 seeking
