Beyond Thin Film Limits—Superhard and Hydrogen‐Free Amorphous Carbon Coatings With Over 100 µm Thickness

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
For the first time, an extreme‐thick laser‐arc PVD ta‐C (DLC) coating exceeding 100 µm is demonstrated, opening up new possibilities for ultra‐high load bearing capacity. This superhard amorphous carbon architecture combines >50% sp3 bonding, robust adhesion and self‐supporting performance, shielding substrates from plastic flow under extreme contact ...

Neuromorphic Devices for Extreme Environments: State‐Variable Reliability and Stabilization Strategies

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Neuromorphic devices for extreme environments are interpreted through the physical states that store and process information. Radiation, temperature extremes, and vacuum can perturb vacancies, filaments, trapped charges, polarization, interfaces, and readout signals.

Minimal influence of future Arctic sea ice loss on North Atlantic jet stream morphology [PDF]

Weather and Climate Dynamics
The response of the North Atlantic jet stream to Arctic sea ice loss has been a topic of substantial scientific debate. Some studies link declining Arctic sea ice to a weaker, wavier jet stream, which potentially increases the occurrence of extreme ...
