Bio‐Inspired Gradient Coatings Enhance the Leading Edge Erosion Resistance of Wind Blades
Rain‐induced erosion of the wind turbine blade leading edge poses a critical challenge to maintenance and operation. Here, we propose a bio‐inspired approach for erosion protection utilising a platelet‐reinforced polyurethane coating with a graded through‐thickness architecture.

Oxygen vacancy migration is a key degradation mechanism for the majority of MLCCs. There are limitations with spatially identifying regions of a capacitor that have degraded due to oxygen vacancy migration. This work showcases ultrasonic attenuation as a non‐electrical and nondestructive technique of identifying oxygen vacancy degraded regions of an ...

Heat‐to‐Electricity Conversion Using Barium Strontium Titanate Multilayer Capacitors
Lead‐free barium strontium titanate multilayer capacitors convert waste heat into electricity via the Olsen electro‐thermodynamic cycle. These capacitors achieve an energy density of 3.7 J cm−3, comparable to the performance of lead‐based ceramics. Their high dielectric strength and broad operating temperature window below 100°C make them practical for

A conductive ZrB2 ceramic composite strategy was developed for Mg3(Sb, Bi)2 thermoelectrics to regulate carrier transport and phonon scattering through heterointerface engineering. The 1.0 wt.% ZrB2 composite achieved enhanced room‐temperature performance, with a power factor of 28.51 µW cm−1 K−2 and a peak ZT of 1.22 at 573 K.

A multi‐fidelity framework integrates sparse direct and abundant indirect electrocaloric measurements. Multi‐objective active learning accelerates BaTiO3‐based electrocaloric materials discovery at –70∘C$^{\circ }{\rm C}$. A diffuse transition enables an electrocaloric strength of 0.06×$\times$10−6 Km/V at –70℃ with an operational temperature span of ...

Magnetoelectric BaTiO3/CoFe2O4 Thin‐Film Meshes for Neuronal Differentiation
We engineer an epitaxial BaTiO3/CoFe2O4 magnetoelectric mesh that overcomes boundary‐induced mechanical clamping. Progressively reducing the mechanical constraint, from substrate‐clamped to PDMS‐transferred and ultimately freestanding, enhances magnetic‐to‐electric transduction and strengthens magnetoelectric coupling.

Bridging Horizontal to Vertical Radiative Cooling
Radiative cooling materials are mature but only work facing the sky, confining them to rooftops. Instead of developing new ones, this system bridges existing horizontal coolers to vertical windows using blades outside the glass. On an occupied urban building, windows stay up to 1.4°C below air temperature while preserving daylight, outward views, and ...

Freestanding hierarchical‐porous BCZT thin films integrate a compliant porous surface with a dense piezoceramic backbone to balance mechanical reliability, voltage sensitivity, and acoustic coupling. The films enable stable wearable pulse‐wave monitoring and enhanced tissue‐coupled ultrasonic energy harvesting, offering a promising route toward soft ...
