Raman Line Scan Analyses and a New Hypothesis for the Formation of Anatase‐Hosting Microbialites: Study of the Stromatolites From Saint‐Jean‐de‐la‐Rivière, Cotentin, France

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Micrometer analysis of millimeter lines of Raman spectra concludes in the association of anatase and graphitized organic matter (graphogen). The photosynthetic microorganisms at the origin of the microbialites produce O2, which is transformed by TiO2 into reactive species that, in turn, decompose the organic matter of the microorganisms.

Black Phosphorus/Ferroelectric CuInP2S6 Heterostructures Empowering Nonvolatile Photonic Convolutional Computing

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing demands of artificial intelligence require new energy‐efficient and nonvolatile computing paradigms. To meet this challenge, we demonstrate a foundational device platform for optical fiber computing that targets the signal decay and power consumption bottlenecks of conventional systems.

Efficient and Tunable Narrowband Second‐Harmonic Generation by a Large‐Area Etchless Lithium Niobate Metasurface

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
An etchless lithium niobate (LN) metasurface with a slanted periodic TiO2 grating enables efficient and narrowband second‐harmonic generation (SHG) thanks to the light confinement in the LN film granted by quasi‐bound‐state‐in‐the‐continuum (q‐BIC) modes.

Made in the shade: Leaf responses of native wildflowers to single‐axis photovoltaic solar energy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As solar energy expands globally, balancing renewable power generation with biodiversity and ecosystem health has become an urgent challenge. This study investigated how native wildflowers respond at leaf level to the unique microclimates created by rotating solar panels in California's Central Valley.

The Evolution of Autonomous Systems for Planetary Cave Exploration: A Review

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The exploration of Subsurface Access Points (SAPs), such as lava tubes on the Moon and Mars, has gained significant interest due to their potential as stable environments shielded from surface radiation and temperature extremes. These sites are considered high‐value targets for detecting water and signs of ancient life, and assessing their ...

From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Insights From the Alphasat Aldo Paraboni Experiment at Tito Scalo and Spino d'Adda: Characterizing Scintillation and Rain Attenuation at Ka‐ and Q‐Band Frequencies

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present experimental results on the relationship between rain attenuation and simultaneous scintillation during rain events, based on beacon signal measurements at 19.7 (Ka‐band) and 39.4 GHz (Q‐band) from the geosynchronous Alphasat satellite (25° E), received at two Italian ground stations, Spino d'Adda (42.1° slant path) and Tito Scalo ...

Soft Colloidal Robots: Magnetically Guided Liquid Crystal Torons for Targeted Micro‐Cargo Delivery

Small, EarlyView.
Torons, topological quasiparticles in liquid crystals, can be propelled using electric fields and precisely steered with magnetic alignment, enabling programmable motion without fluid flow. In microfluidic channels, they transport colloidal cargo and exhibit novel dynamic behavior. Their uniformity, softness, and reconfigurability make torons ideal for

Binary‐Solvent‐Programmed Single‐Step Inkjet Printing of Self‐Confined Micro‐Inlaid OLED Arrays

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Solvent‐programmed micro‐inlay inkjet printing enables lithography‐free, high‐resolution μ‐OLED arrays in a single step. A thermodynamically tuned 3:1 (w/w) chloroform/dichloroethane blend not only drives interfacial phase separation between the solute and polymers but also stabilizes droplet ejection, forming rim‐confined emissive domains in one pass.

GIWAXS using microbeam applied in halide perovskite films for high spectral resolution and mapping capability

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
This article demonstrates that microbeam GIWAXS (µ‐GIWAXS) effectively overcomes the distorting footprint effects of conventional GIWAXS analysis of perovskite films. This advancement not only delivers higher reciprocal‐space resolution data but also unlocks the unique capability to spatially map microstructural inhomogeneity, which is vital for the ...
