Can Elastomers Combine Stiffness, Toughness and Fatigue Resistance?
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review studies how the molecular and macroscopic architecture of elastomers influence their mechanical properties including: stiffness, stretchability, toughness, fatigue resistance, and damping behavior. By linking the structure to performance, it proposes design principles for advanced elastomeric systems that combine mechanical properties ...

Circular output from a high power Nd:YLF slab laser
, 2008 Neodymium-doped Yttrium Lithium Fluoride (YLF) lasers have traditionally been power-limited by the relatively low tensile strength of the crystal. When power-scaling solid-state lasers, the choice of the gain media geometry, the doping level, and the ...

One-way Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering beyond qubits
, 2022 Quantum steering has been exploited as an important resource in modern quantum information processing. Owing to its directional nature, some quantum states that are asymmetric under the exchange of parties have been found to manifest steering only in ...

Adsorption‐Engineered Hydrocarbon Ionomers for Durable Proton‐Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Hydrocarbon ionomers suffer from oxidation‐driven interfacial degradation in PEM fuel cell cathodes, leading to catalyst instability. Here, adsorption‐engineered poly(fluorene) ionomers decouple interfacial anchoring from oxidative degradation, enabling strong catalyst–ionomer interactions while resisting electrochemical oxidation.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A novel W2TiC2Tx MXene prepared through a MAX‐phase route supports sub‐nanometer Co for highly efficient alkaline hydrogen evolution. Strong Co–W interfacial interactions optimize hydrogen adsorption and catalytic activity, enabling low overpotentials of 63 mV at 10 mA cm−2, small Tafel slope of 44.3 mV dec−1, and exceptional durability at industrially

Flexural Characteristics of Hollow One Way-Ferrocement Slabs
Engineering, Technology & Applied Science ResearchIn this study, five hollow one-way Ferrocement slabs were fabricated, cast, and tested under a four-point loading system. The ferrocement slabs were voided by waste plastic bottles. The main employed parameters were the void presence, void ratio for the waste plastic bottles, and fiber percentage. The waste plastic bottle void method relied on a hollow
