Backbone‐Controlled Ion‐Side Chain Accessibility in Conjugated Polymers for Organic Electrochemical Synaptic Transistors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Backbone modulation in glycolated conjugated polymers governs ion accessibility to side chains, strengthes anion adsorption, and suppresses back‐diffusion. As the number of thiophene units increases, structural reorganization, retention, and synaptic plasticity are enhanced, leading to improved neuromorphic performance in electrolyte‐gated organic ...

Earthquake-induced rotational ground motions from G-Pisa ring laser gyroscope.

, 2012
In order to fully characterize the local ground motion induced by earthquakes, one needs to determine three components of translation, six components of strain and three components of rotation (Aki and Richards, 2002).

Time‐Resolved Magnetization Switching Dynamics Driven by Orbital Torques

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Du et al. reveal nanosecond magnetization switching driven by orbital currents using time‐resolved Hall detection. The measurements separate domain nucleation from domain wall propagation and show that Joule heating strongly assists switching by lowering energy barriers.
