Quasicrystalline spin foam with matter: definitions and examples

open access: yesAcademia Quantum
In this work, we define quasicrystalline spin networks as a subspace within the standard Hilbert space of loop quantum gravity, effectively constraining the states to coherent states that align with quasicrystal geometry structures. We introduce quasicrystalline spin foam amplitudes, a variation of the Engle–Pereira–Rovelli–Livine (EPRL) spin foam ...

A Thermally Expandable Resin for the Volumetric Additive Manufacturing of Shape‐Memory Functional Foams

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Volumetric additive manufacturing allows to print parts extremely fast, but is so far is limited by the build volume of the printers. The foaming materials presented here allow to expand printed parts up to 500% reaching densities of 0.16 g cm−3 as well as providing shape memory properties enabling the creation of lightweight, functional parts ...

Adhesive Double‐Network Granular Organogel E‐Skin

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We introduce a double‐network granular organogel adhesive for electronic skin, overcoming adhesion and strength trade‐offs. It provides reversible, robust bonding and ionic conductivity, enabling wearable and soft robotic e‐skin. Thanks to the e‐skin adhesive, a soft robotic trunk can recognize touch, temperature, humidity, and acidity.
