A Flexible Photovoltaic Fatigue Factor for Quantification of Mechanical Device Performance
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The flexible Photovoltaic fatigue factor (F) quantifies mechanical and photovoltaic performance as a function of the power conversion efficiency (PCE), the strain (ε${\varepsilon}$), and the number of bending cycles (NBC) in bending tests. The strain depends on the bending radius (R) and the thicknesses of the substrate (ts) and the photovoltaic device

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A novel stratum corneum‐inspired zwitterionic hydrogel is developed for intelligent, flexible sensors, featuring intrinsic water retention and anti‐freezing properties. The quasi‐gel, composed of hygroscopic polymers and bound water, maintains its softness across a wide range of humidity.

Inverse problem for multi-body interaction of nonlinear waves
Scientific Reports, 2017 The inverse problem is studied in multi-body systems with nonlinear dynamics representing, e.g., phase-locked wave systems, standard multimode and random lasers. Using a general model for four-body interacting complex-valued variables we test two methods

The spherical coordinate form of three-dimensional generalized dynamics of soft-matter quasicrystals with 12-fold symmetry [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 This article reports the spherical coordinate form of three-dimensional generalized dynamics of soft-matter quasicrystals with 12-fold symmetry which provides a basis for solving initial-boundary value problems of the equations under some important cases. Some relevant solving methods are discussed as well.

Tunable Tactile Synapses Enabled by Erasable Doping in Iongel‐Gated Nanotube Network Transistors
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Artificial tactile synaptic sensors are realized by an iongel‐gated single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) transistor with reversible doping characteristics. The device senses and memorizes tactile stimuli and exhibits gate bias‐dependent excitatory or inhibitory synaptic behavior.

Elastically driven intermittent microscopic dynamics in soft solids
Nature Communications, 2017 Soft solids have important applications in industry but their material properties can be compromised by aging. Here Bouzidet al. present a large-scale study of a model gel to investigate the aging of soft matter which can help unravel the microscopic ...

, 2014 We consider a dilute system of small hard beads or hard fibers immersed in a very soft gel able to withstand large elastic deformations. Because of its low to very low shear modulus, this system is very sensitive to small forces. We calculate the local deformation induced by a constant volume force, the inclusion weight. We explain how this deformation
