Slight Truncation Changes in Iron Oxide Nanocubes Strongly Affect Their Magnetic Properties

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Subtle variations in nanoparticle morphology can lead to significant changes in functional properties. An automated shape‐fitting method captures minor differences in corner truncation between iron oxide nanocubes of similar sizes synthesized under identical conditions, revealing pronounced disparities in their magnetic and hyperthermia behavior ...

4.5kV FRD Development for high current power modules

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
A 4.5kV/100A FRD was designed by simulation, which had optimized carrier density distribute cell and ruggedness terminal. The cell was composed of P-body/N-sub/N+ layers, when the P-body doping concentration is lower, the carrier density distribution on ...

Strain‐Programmable Luminescent Adhesive Patch With Tartrazine‐Mediated Optical Skin Clearing for Photochemical Tissue Bonding

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We propose a suture‐complementary approach that integrates optical skin clearing with a strain‐programmable luminescent adhesive patch. Hyaluronic acid promotes transdermal delivery of tartrazine to improve optical clearing and stabilizes its interaction with a photosensitizer. Optical clearing increases the penetration depth of visible light into skin,

Scale effects of topographic ruggedness on precipitation over Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau

Atmospheric Science Letters, 2019
Due to the complex topography in mountainous areas, the pattern of precipitation is impacted by the topographic ruggedness (TR) that is characterized from Digital Elevation Model and thus scale‐dependent.

Tough Injectable Hydrogels Enabled by Integrating Rigid Homogeneous Framework With Flexible Chains

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Tough injectable hydrogels are constructed by integrating a rigid, homogeneous hyaluronic acid framework with flexible long‐chain connectors. This framework–flexible structure simultaneously enhances network uniformity and promotes effective energy dissipation by enlarging plastic deformation zones under compression.
