Most matter is nominally frozen in the polar regions or space, and liquid crystal materials are no exception. Consequently, soft actuators, including liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs), are inoperative under such extreme cold in response to stimuli, as their motion relies on mechanical deformation.

Engineering Hybrid Extracellular Vesicles for Functional mRNA Delivery
This study optimizes two methods for the generation of extracellular vesicle (EV)‐mimetic‐Lipid Nanoparticle (LNP) (CELLNPs) and EV‐LNP (HEVs) hybrid nanoparticles for messenger (mRNA) delivery. The authors screen lipid compositions to maximize hybrid nanoparticle formation and analyze the resulting nanoparticles with single particle characterization ...

Defect Analysis of the β– to γ–Ga2O3 Phase Transition
The role of defects at all the relevant stages of the β$\beta$‐ to γ$\gamma$‐Ga2O3 polymorph transition is investigated using a multi method approach. The positron annihilation spectroscopy based results show that the defect density decreases after the transition, and that changes in defect configuration within the γ phase occur with increasing ...
