Multimodal Locomotion in Insect‐Inspired Microrobots: A Review of Strategies for Aerial, Surface, Aquatic, and Interfacial Motion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Heterogeneous Integration of Flipped Oxide Heterostructure Membranes for Nanoelectronics

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A flipped electronically reconfigurable STO/LAO freestanding membrane is demonstrated and integrated with various host platforms via controlled transfer. Using ultra‐low‐voltage electron‐beam lithography, conductive nanostructures are created at the buried STO/LAO interface. This novel approach enables heterogeneous integration of flipped complex oxide
