Photothermomechanically Efficient, Low‐Cost, High‐Cycle‐Life, Hybrid MXene‐Polymer Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The addition of MXenes to elastomer‐plastic‐paper films enables the creation of easily prepared actuators that are scalable for small robotic applications. Known as MXene‐polymer Trilayer Actuators (MPTAs), they bend from UV light. Their usefulness is demonstrated through kirigami‐inspired flower‐shaped art design, parallel manipulator for waveguiding,

On the Connection of Coronal Loop Plasma with the Ambient Magnetic Field

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Solar coronal loops are magnetically confined plasma structures whose properties are closely linked to the ambient magnetic field. Using 3D magnetohydrodynamic simulations of kink-unstable coronal flux tubes, we investigate how the intensity of the ...

Helicity Fluxes and Hemispheric Helicity Rule of Active Regions Emerging from the Convection Zone Dynamo

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using a 3D nonlinear mean field solar dynamo model, we investigate the magnetic helicity flux and magnetic twist, as well as tilt parameters of bipolar magnetic regions (BMRs) emerging from the solar convection zone owing to the magnetic buoyancy ...

Mitigating Singlet Exciton Back‐Transfer using 2D Spacer Layers for Perovskite‐Sensitised Upconversion

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
The efficiency of bulk perovskite‐sensitised upconversion is hindered by parasitic singlet back‐transfer. A 2D perovskite spacer layer is introduced to weaken this loss pathway by increasing the separation between the sensitiser and the emitter. The spacer layer enhances the upconversion efficiency at lower excitation powers and improves the stability ...

An Ultra‐Wideband Metasurface Perfect Absorber Based on Hybrid Absorption Modes

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
A Ge2Sb2Te5 metasurface absorber enables polarization‐independent, ultrabroadband (UV–NIR) light absorption with high angular tolerance. Its performance stems from overlapping electric and magnetic dipole resonances in a symmetric structure, achieving 94% average absorption and maintaining 83% even at 70° incidence, promising for integrated ...

Magnetic Flux Emergence and Solar Eruptions in Partially Ionized Plasmas

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We have performed 3D MHD simulations to study the effect of partial ionization in the process of magnetic flux emergence in the Sun. In fact, we continue previous work, and we now focus (1) on the emergence of the magnetic fields above the solar ...
