Tuning the Morphology of Self‐Assembled Nanopatterns on MgO(001) Surfaces by Sequential Broad‐Beam Ion Irradiation

open access: yesphysica status solidi (RRL) – Rapid Research Letters, EarlyView.
A two‐step approach based on broad‐beam ion irradiation is demonstrated to produce fine‐tuned self‐assembled surface patterns on MgO(001). It shows an efficient route to modifying the crystalline MgO(001) surface topography in a controlled way, making use of its very specific behavior in terms of both the pattern morphology and patterning dynamics.

How digital platforms affect local entrepreneurial activities: Evidence from the staggered entry of craigslist

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Access to markets is critical for entrepreneurial success, yet many face significant barriers. This study argues that digital platforms functioning as peer‐to‐peer marketplaces can facilitate entrepreneurial activity by improving market access for new ventures.

Network Latency Estimation for Telesurgery Using Deep Reinforcement Learning

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Overview of the proposed two‐stage deep reinforcement learning framework for network latency prediction in telesurgery. The pipeline includes data collection from simulated catheter navigation sessions (Philippines–Botswana), feature engineering, DQN‐based direction prediction (85.8% accuracy), direction‐to‐value transformation, and value forecasting ...

Hierarchically Biporous Wick Vapor Chamber With Micro/Nano Condenser for Exceeding 600 W/cm2 Heat Dissipation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
An integrated vapor chamber couples a hierarchically biporous copper wick with a micro/nano‐textured superhydrophobic condenser to form a self‐sustained liquid–vapor loop. The device dissipates extreme heat fluxes above 600 W/cm2, even when the condenser is above the heater, by overcoming the permeability‐capillarity trade‐off in conventional vapor ...

Exploiting Device Deformability for Fluid and Particle Manipulation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Deformable devices enable fluid and particle manipulation modes that are inaccessible to rigid platforms. This review examines soft materials and architectures that translate controlled deformation into microscale fluid operations such as pumping, valving, mixing, and particle handling.
