Multimodal training on L2 Japanese pitch accent: learning outcomes, neural correlates and subjective assessments

open access: yesLanguage and Cognition
Japanese pitch accent is phonemic, making it crucial for second-language learners to acquire. Building on theories of multimodal learning, the present study explored how auditory, visual and gestural training of Japanese pitch accent affected behavioral,

New Directions in Focused Ion Beam Induced Deposition for the Nanoprinting of Functional 3D Heterostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Here, it is shown that focused ion beam induced deposition (FIBID) using helium and neon ions enables advanced high‐resolution 3D nanoprinting achieving precise multimaterial architectures and engineered internal voids. Thus, FIBID with finely focused noble gas ion species is presented as a unique platform for designing functional nanomaterials for ...

Highly Efficient Pure‐Blue Single‐Layer Organic Light‐Emitting Diodes Without High‐Triplet‐Energy Auxiliary Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Blue organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) comprising triplet‐harvesting emitters require the use of high‐triplet‐energy hosts and blocking layers to confine the triplet excitons to the emitter. Here, we present efficient single‐layer blue hyperfluorescent OLEDs comprising solely of a matrix‐free emissive layer between two charge‐injecting electrodes ...

Material Modification of Borofloat 33 During Scanning‐Based Microforming Using Femtosecond Laser Pulses

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Possibilities for ablation‐free microforming of borosilicate glass using ultrashort laser pulses are presented. Depending on the laser parameters and scanning strategy, surface structures with profile heights of up to 20 µm could be produced. The work provides a comprehensive experimental and analytical characterization of the microforming process ...

Highly Bright Deep‐Blue Perovskite Light‐Emitting Diodes via Dual‐Passivating Additive‐Based Synergetic Solid‐State Halide Exchange

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a dual‐passivating additive‐based synergetic solid‐state halide exchange (DASH) process using chlorodiphenylphosphine (CDPP), which passivates undercoordinated Pb2+ sites and releases chloride ions for uniform halide exchange. The DASH process enhances halide homogeneity and PLQY, enabling bright and spectrally stable deep‐blue ...

Phonology or non phonology? That is the question (in intonation)

open access: yesEstudios de Fonética Experimental, 2008
The paper would like to challenge the basic tenet of Autosegmental Theory of Intonation, i.e. that in non-tonal languages it is possible to deal with intonation in phonological terms.

Micromachined Double‐Membrane Mechanically Tunable Metamaterial for Thermal Infrared Filtering

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2025.
Herein, a mechanically tunable double‐layer plasmonic metamaterial leveraging the extraordinary optical transmission effect observed in subwavelength arrays of openings within thin metal layers is presented. The concept is experimentally validated by integrating the proposed metamaterial structure into an electrostatic parallel‐plate actuator to create

Syllable structure and lexical pitch accent in Split Croatian

open access: yesLaboratory Phonology
Contour tones in most languages are restricted to relatively sonorous syllable types. Relatively rare are languages that permit contour tones on all syllables, including less sonorous ones.

Soft Robotic Snake with Tunable Undulatory Gait for Efficient Underwater Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study designs an underwater soft snake robot using 3D‐printed soft actuators, controlled by specific signals to generate sinusoidal undulation. Results show a positive correlation between speed and swing amplitude, with optimal performance at 2/3π phase offset, PLA tail, 1.2 voltage growth rate, and 6s undulation period achieving a maximum speed ...
