Hierarchical Artificial Muscle with Nonlinear Elasticity for Antagonistic and Cyclic Robotics
We construct hierarchical muscles by plying nylon fibers around a heating wire. The hierarchical muscle shows a J‐shaped passive curve, which shows benefit in antagonistic muscle pair and work accumulation mechanism. We also develop a computational, first‐principle model to understand the physics of both active actuation stroke and passive J‐curve ...

Inherently Disordered Auxetic Metamaterials
Inherently disordered auxetic metamaterials based on random chiral Delaunay triangulations are designed and investigated using numerical simulations and experimental tests. These disordered frameworks exhibit orthotropic behavior and a large negative Poisson's ratio (ca.

Organic Crystal‐MXene Composites as Temperature‐Tolerant Strain Sensors
ABSTRACT Flexible organic crystals offer significant opportunities for organic electronics; however, their potential applications in fields like flexible sensors are at present limited by poor charge transport that result in failure under reversible conditions.

Diffusion–Model–Driven Discovery of Ferroelectrics for Photocurrent Applications
We developed a diffusion model–based generative AI and high‐throughput screening framework that accelerates the discovery of photovoltaic ferroelectrics. By coupling AI driven crystal generation with machine learning and DFT screening, we identified Ca3P2 and LiCdP as new ferroelectric materials exhibiting strong polarization, feasible switching ...
