Emerging Device Applications From Strong Light–Matter Interactions in 2D Materials
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Two‐dimensional semiconductors enable extremely compact optoelectronic devices such as solar cells, sensors, LEDs, and lasers. Their strong light–matter interactions allow efficient light emission, detection, and energy conversion. This review article discusses the recent progress in integrating these materials with optical cavities and nanostructures ...

Rotary Electromechanical System Integrating Non‐Reciprocal Memory and Combinational Logic
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Rotational bistability, interfaced through a conductive network with switchable contacts, unifies logic operations and mechanical memory within a rotary electromechanical system. The author demonstrates how serially coupled configurations of rotationally bistable modules enable reprogrammable sequential logic governed by mechanical state transition and

Shape‐Memory Alloy Torsion Strips for Soft Robotic Manipulation and Morphing
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.In this research, a dedicated configuration of SMA strip is proposed for soft robotic manipulation and morphing. This configuration has broad application prospects and demonstrates remarkable advantages in soft body joint operations. Mimicking invertebrates, soft robots tend to control each of their body joints to achieve the desired shape changes and ...

Soft Adaptive Mechanical Metamaterials
Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2021 Soft materials are inherently flexible and make suitable candidates for soft robots intended for specific tasks that would otherwise not be achievable (e.g., smart grips capable of picking up objects without prior knowledge of their stiffness). Moreover,

Vibration multistability and quantum switching for dispersive coupling
, 2014 We investigate a resonantly modulated harmonic mode, dispersively coupled to a nonequilibrium few-level quantum system. We focus on the regime where the relaxation rate of the system greatly exceeds that of the mode, and develop a quantum adiabatic ...

Multistability Route in a PWL Multi-scroll System through Fractional-Order Derivatives
Chaos, Solitons & Fractals, 2022 Recently, it was discovered that the use of fractional derivatives induces the occurrence of multistable states in PWL systems with multiple scrolls. In this paper, we show the path of the system from monostable to multistable behavior by reducing the ...
