Self-propelled particles driven by light

Recent advances in the field of active soft matter promise a lot. Both, experimental advances and theoretical understanding point towards new material classes in reach, for example self-healing materials that might switch their properties from elastic to solid easily or switch their macroscopic shapes.

A 3D‐Printed SFE‐Graded Alloy Mitigates Cryogenic Discontinuous Plastic Flow and Hydrogen Embrittlement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel strategy features gradient composition and stacking fault energy‐tuned (CoCrMn)100‐2xFexNix fabricated via in situ alloying additive manufacturing. This design circumvents cryogenic discontinuous plastic flow and hydrogen embrittlement of metallic materials under quasi‐static loading and hydrogen‐rich environment relevant to lunar polar ...

Spontaneous Cyclic Levitation of Glycerol‐Water Droplets at Low Pressures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Under low pressure, a minute glycerol addition transforms the chaotic dynamics of freezing water droplets into cyclic levitation. Freeze‐concentration preserves liquid pathways that relax expansion‐induced stress, while freezing point depression weakens asymmetric vaporization recoil.
