Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics
“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.

Monolithic Fabrication of Silicon Nanowires Bridging Thick Silicon Structures [PDF]
A monolithic process is developed for the fabrication of Si nanowires within thick Si substrates. A combination of anisotropic etch and sidewall passivation is utilized to protect and release Si lines during the subsequent deep etch. An etch depth of $10~\mu \text{m}$ is demonstrated with a future prospect for 50 $\mu \text{m}$ opening up ...

Resonant Domain Wall Dynamics in a Three‐Dimensional Magnetic Nano Double Helix
3D magnetic nanostructures promise exciting possibilities for magnetization dynamics. However, experimental realizations remain scarce. In nanoprinted cobalt double helices, time‐resolved X‐ray microscopy reveals harmonic domain wall dynamics. Simulations identify the mode and additional higher‐frequency resonances, revealing a rich dynamic landscape ...

Thermal transport in 2D and 3D nanowire networks
We report on thermal transport properties in 2 and 3 dimensions interconnected nanowire networks (strings and nodes). The thermal conductivity of these nanostructures decreases in increasing the distance of the nodes, reaching ultra-low values.

Nanodot to Nanowire: A strain-driven shape transition in self-organized endotaxial CoSi2 on Si (100)
We report a phenomenon of strain-driven shape transition in the growth of nanoscale self-organized endotaxial CoSi2 islands on Si (100) substrates. Small square shaped islands as small as 15\times15 nm2 have been observed.
