Self‐Refraction of Nonlinear Capillary‐Gravity Waves
Self‐refraction effects have been observed during the propagation of deep‐water capillary‐gravity waves. The observations are shown to be in qualitative agreement with the theory of self‐focusing and defocusing in a cubically nonlinear medium in the ...

Microfabrication using nano‐ to micron‐sized blocks has transformative potential for next‐gen electronics, optoelectronics, and materials. Traditional methods are limited by scalability and precision. STIC, a single‐laser system for precise colloid manipulation and immobilization using femtosecond lasers, is introduced that enables efficient 3D ...

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

Dispersion of extremely nondegenerate nonlinear refraction in semiconductors
Dispersion of nondegenerate nonlinear refraction in semiconductors is measured using the Beam-Deflection technique. With large nondegeneracy, n2 is greatly enhanced and exhibits a strong nonlinear dispersion, which rapidly switches sign to negative near ...
