Mechanisms of Degradation in Li‐Ion Batteries Under Low Temperature Exposures

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Low‐temperature exposures, or freeze‐thaw cycles, are observed to significantly accelerate the degradation of Li‐ion batteries. A combination of electrolyte phase separation and mechanochemical stress leads to reversible and irreversible performance losses.

Lidar study of wind turbulence, low level jet streams, and atmospheric internal waves in the boundary layer of atmosphere

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
The results of lidar study of wind turbulence, low level jet streams, and internal atmospheric waves in the stable boundary layer of atmosphere on the coast of Lake Baikal are presented. Few events of the atmospheric internal waves (AIWs) were registered

An Edible Chitosan‐Based Acoustic Sensor for Sound‐Responsive Actuation in Edible Robots

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces an edible acoustic sensor for robotic food and edible robotics. Built from a chitosan piezoelectric film between gold electrodes, the sensor enables acoustic communication through ON/OFF keying. Integrated into an edible robot with pneumatically actuated arms and neck, it responds to high‐frequency tones.

Enhancing Great Plains Nocturnal Precipitation and Low‐Level Jets in AM4 With an Extended CLUBB Closure

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
In this study, we extend the Cloud Layers Unified by Binormals (CLUBB) turbulence scheme within the GFDL atmospheric model (AM4) by implementing direct momentum‐flux prognosis and a multiscale turbulent lengthscale, to improve the simulation of nocturnal

An Electrowetting Pump

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A tubular electrowetting pump moves alternating droplets through a millimeter‐wide channel in discrete, reversible steps, functioning as a fluidic stepper motor. With no moving parts and electrodes insulated from the liquid, it delivers silent, accurate flow. Flexibility allows the pump to be woven directly into textiles for wearable, medical, and soft‐

Boosting Conversion Efficiency in Zn3P2/InP Solar Cells Via Nanoscale Junction Engineering

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the efficacy of selective area epitaxy (SAE) in enhancing the conversion efficiency of a Zn3P2${\rm Zn}_3{\rm P}_2$/InP heterojunction solar cell. The impact of the SAE pattern dimensions on the performance parameters is investigated. Small size opening limits Jsc because of current crowding whereas large size opening limits Voc

Bioprinting High‐Cell‐Density Cardiac Tissue Constructs With Sustained Contractile Function

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Contractile cardiomyocytes in 3D culture provide insights into the behavior of the heart. Combining a 3D bioprinting approach with a multi‐electrode array allows the development of the 3D culture to be monitored over time, and matured cultures allow the effect of drugs on cardiac function to be modelled, replicating effects seen in clinical application.
