Ultrahigh Piezoelectricity in Truss‐Based Ferroelectric Ceramics Metamaterials
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.By leveraging the unique combination of polarization direction and loading state, ultrahigh piezoelectricity is achieved through careful tuning of the relative density and scaling ratio in truss‐based ferroelectric metamaterials. This approach enables the simultaneous realization of extremely high piezoelectric constants and ultralow dielectric ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Colonoscopic continuum robots lack sensing, endangering intestinal tissue. An ideal sensing array is hard to integrate. This work introduces a 3D crosslinked stretchable E‐armor with full‐coverage and multiplexing. It has bimodal sensing, forms a triboelectric synapse, uses CNN‐LSTM, and has a hydrogel and innovative triboelectric materials.

DYNAMIC PARTICLE SYSTEMS FOR OBJECT STRUCTURE EXTRACTION
Image Analysis and Stereology, 2011 A new deformable model based on the use of a particle system is introduced. By defining the local behavior of each particle, the system behaves as an active contour model showing a variable topology and regularization properties.

Programming Defects and Cavities into Colloidal Crystals Engineered With DNA
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Seed‐mediated crystallization is adapted for colloidal crystals to design cavities and defect architectures through chemically programmed DNA sequences and appropriate seed particle geometry. This synthetic approach combines tenets from both atomic and colloidal crystallization to deliberately control defect formation in superlattices and enables the ...
