Stiffening Liquid Crystal Elastomers with Liquid Crystal Inclusions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Incorporation of low molecular weight liquid crystals (LC) into liquid crystal elastomers (LCE) leads to a significant increase in their stiffness and output work density. Such remarkable stiffening is attributed to nanoscale phase‐separation and the formation of induced‐smectic domains in polydomain and monodomain LC‐LCEs, respectively.

Recruitment of language-, emotion- and speech timing associated brain regions for expressing emotional prosody: Investigation of functional neuroanatomy with fMRI.

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016
We aimed to progress understanding of prosodic emotion expression by establishing brain regions active when expressing specific emotions, those activated irrespective of the target emotion, and those whose activation intensity varied depending on ...

Prosodic description: An introduction for fieldworkers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This article provides an introductory tutorial on prosodic features such as tone and accent for researchers working on little-known languages. It specifically addresses the needs of non-specialists and thus does not presuppose knowledge of the phonetics ...

Synthesis and Electrochemistry of Stacking Fault‐Free β‐NaMnO2

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An inherent tendency to form intergrown stacking faults in corrugated layered β‐NaMnO2 hinders the understanding of its structural transition during electrochemical reaction. The synthesis of fault‐free β‐NaMnO2 unveils in‐plane sliding of corrugated MnO2 as well as excellent capacity retention in Na cells, providing a strategy to exploit Mn‐based ...

Emotional Prosody Measurement (EPM): A voice-based evaluation method for psychological therapy effectiveness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The voice embodies three sources of information: speech, the identity, and the emotional state of the speaker (i.e., emotional prosody). The latter feature is resembled by the variability of the F0 (also named fundamental frequency of pitch) (SD F0).

Microstructure Optimization via Grain‐Boundary Segregation to Enhance DC Bias Dielectric Performance of BaTiO3 Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
By tuning grain size through nanoscale grain‐boundary segregation of single‐element additives, high‐performance BaTiO₃‐based multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) exhibit exceptionally low dielectric loss over a wide frequency range and excellent thermal stability.

Learning word order at birth: A NIRS study

open access: yesDevelopmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2017
In language, the relative order of words in sentences carries important grammatical functions. However, the developmental origins and the neural correlates of the ability to track word order are to date poorly understood.
