Triblock Polymer Engineering Enables Hydration‐Rich, High‐Performance, Fouling‐Resistant Interfaces
A molecularly engineered triblock polymer (PHZ) rapidly reorganizes into a hydration‐rich interfacial layer on diverse surfaces, strongly suppressing hydrophobic attraction and fouling. The triblock polymer provides robust energy and steric barriers to oily foulants, enabling high‐performance antifouling at ultralow dosage.

Enhancing the Aggressive Strength of a Cavitating Jet and Its Practical Application
A cavitating jet is a useful tool for the practical application of cavitation. Cavitation impact arises when bubbles collapse and can be utilized to modify the surfaces of materials as an alternative to shot peening.

Strong gate coupling of high-Q nanomechanical resonators
The detection of mechanical vibrations near the quantum limit is a formidable challenge since the displacement becomes vanishingly small when the number of phonon quanta tends towards zero.

Radiation‐Resistant Aluminum Alloy for Space Missions in the Extreme Environment of the Solar System
A novel ultrafine‐grained aluminum crossover alloy exhibits unprecedented radiation resistance and mechanical stability under extreme irradiation doses up to 100 dpa. The exceptional resilience arises from thermodynamically stable T‐phase precipitates, enabling lightweight structural materials for next‐generation spacecraft and extraterrestrial ...

Visualizing and Quantifying microRNA‐Induced DNA Origami Separation at the Nanoscale
Clinically relevant miRNA biomarkers trigger the disassembly of DNA origami dimers into monomers through a toehold‐mediated strand displacement reaction. High‐speed AFM was used to visualize this reaction in real time, while solid‐state nanopore measurements quantified the populations of dimers and monomers, as well as the resulting miRNA concentration,

Making pipe-undulation shape measurement highly accurate by a pipe inner-wall shape sensor
We have investigated reconstruction of the pipe-undulation shape throughout the length of a pipe from the measured data of the interior profiles by using a laser-beam scanning sensor.

Role of friction-induced torque in stick-slip motion [PDF]
We present a minimal quasistatic 1D model describing the kinematics of the transition from static friction to stick-slip motion of a linear elastic block on a rigid plane.

Chirality Transfer via Orientational Order of Micellar Assemblies on Gold Nanocrystals
A mechanism for chiral growth of Au nanocrystals mediated by orientational order of chiral micelles at seed surfaces is demonstrated. 3D electron microscopy and molecular dynamics simulations reveal how alignment of the micelles along crystal directions and torsion–orientation coupling govern chirality transfer, providing a framework to rationalize ...
