Bamboo-Slip-Inspired Conformal Reconfigurable Metasurfaces. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Bamboo‐slip‐inspired conformal reconfigurable metasurface system. The structure is mainly composed of three parts, which are conformal metasurface, pattern reconfigurable antenna, and control components (such as Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)). Conformal metasurfaces draw inspiration from the design of ancient Chinese bamboo slips.

Mechanical Stress Effects on 4H-Silicon Carbide Power Diodes

IEEE Open Journal of Power Electronics
This study discusses the effect of stress on 4H-silicon carbide (4H-SiC) power diodes using numerical simulations. Two power diodes were evaluated; namely, a 600 V PiN diode and 1.8 kV junction barrier Schottky (JBS) diode.

Microstrip 3-Bit Fractal-based Phase Shifter

Journal of Microwaves, Optoelectronics and Electromagnetic Applications, 2022
This paper presents the implementation of a 3-bit microstrip fractal-based phase shifter operating in the 430 MHz to 470 MHz frequency range. The fractal structure is used to confine different delay line lengths in the same area due to the space-filling ...

Covalent Functionalization of 2D Semiconductors: A Roadmap to Advanced Electronic Devices

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This Review presents recent advances in the covalent functionalization strategies for two‐dimensional semiconductors and their implementation in modern technologies. Layered materials are modified through diverse molecular chemistries (e.g., thiols, diazonium salts, alkyl halides, and electron‐deficient species) to tailor their surface properties ...

Hybrid Ferroelectric Tunnel Junctions with Intrinsic Nonlinearity and Self‐Rectification via Interfacial Reconstruction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Rapid thermal annealing reconstructs the BCFO/Nb:STO interface into an atomically thin reconstructed interfacial layer, which reshapes the tunneling barrier and converts a high‐TER ferroelectric tunnel junction into an intrinsically nonlinear, self‐rectifying device.

Intracrystalline Void‐Mediated Toughening of Brittle Crystals in Quail Eggshells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In quail eggshells, the high density and disordered arrangement of intracrystalline voids inhibit lattice cleavage, suppress long‐range crack propagation, and promote deformation twinning and quasi‐plasticity, serving as an essential toughening motif. We show that these voids remain within a narrow subcritical size range and therefore predominantly do ...

Near‐Infrared Light‐Activated Polydopamine Nanoparticles Conjugated With Transferrin Peptides for Enhanced Brain Accumulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that Tf‐PDA NPs combine a receptor‐mediated targeting with mild photothermal activation to enhance nanoparticle accumulation in the brain. NIR‐activated Tf‐PDA NPs increase BBB permeability to NPs in vitro and in vivo without inducing cytotoxicity or adverse immune responses.
