Exposure to UV radiance predicts repeated evolution of concealed black skin in birds
Nature Communications, 2020 In contrast to bird plumage, little is known about the evolution of bird skin color. Here, Nicolaï et al. find that black skin has evolved over 100 times in birds and is associated with baldness and/or white feathers as well as with high irradiation ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.DNA strands are employed both as dynamic linkers and nanoscale templates for the integration of Ag2S nanoparticles on MoS2, which in turn imparted photothermal responsiveness; this feature permits the selective cargo (fluorophore, quantum dots or an enzyme) release from the MoS2 surface in response to local heat induced by light irradiation.

Counterion Dependent Side‐Chain Relaxation Stiffens a Chemically Doped Thienothiophene Copolymer
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Oxidation of a thienothiophene copolymer, p(g3TT‐T2), via different doping strategies and dopant molecules resulted in materials with similar oxidation levels and a high electrical conductivity of ≈100 S cm−1. However, mechanical properties varied significantly, with sub‐glass transition temperatures and elastic moduli spanning from –44°C to –3°C and ...

Synthesis of multicomponent nanocomposites containing filamentary carbon nanostructures
, 2020 In this work, the multicomponent nanocomposites containing filamentary carbon nanostructures were synthesized using materials based on iron oxides with a predominant content of the epsilon phase (epsilon-Fe2O3).

Laser-surface nanostructures in carbon coating
, 2005 In this paper we propose a theoretical basis of a new method of Laser Ablation Lithography (LAL) using coherent laser beams interference patterns. The advantage of our method is the absence of the need to use a mask.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.P4bm framework in NaNbO3‐Ba(Ti, Hf)O3 ferrodistortive relaxor entails short‐range and highly‐polar ferrodistortive orders. The abundant highly‐polar orders facilitate to increase entropy change, and robust octahedral oxygen tilt enables to impede thermal perturbations.

Cellulose Structures as a Support or Template for Inorganic Nanostructures and Their Assemblies
, 2022 Cellulose is the most abundant natural polymer and deserves the special attention of the scientific community because it represents a sustainable source of carbon and plays an important role as a sustainable energent for replacing crude oil, coal, and ...

Glissile Interphase Boundaries Enable Collective Phase Switching in Epitaxial Polar Oxides
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A triple point is identified in the phase diagram of low‐symmetry epitaxial BiFeO3 thin film along with an extended regime of phase competition associated with a flattened energy landscape. The electromechanical response is shown to be governed by correlated interphase‐boundary motion, including scale‐free avalanche dynamics characteristic of systems ...
