High‐Performance Self‐Powered Sensing System for Power Grid Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study presents a lateral swing electromagnetic generator (LS‐EMG) for harvesting overhead transmission line vibration energy. With a compact 24.32 cm3 volume, it achieves 2.28 mW output power and 93.75 µW/cm3 power density. A self‐powered wireless sensor system was developed using this generator, enabling real‐time temperature and humidity ...

Phase transition structural superlubricity

open access: yes
Structural superlubricity refers to a state with almost vanishing friction and wear between crystalline surfaces in incommensurate configurations. However, thus far, this phenomenon has been observed only at solid-solid interfaces.

The Promise of Solid Lubricants for a Sustainable Future

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 8, 6 February 2026.
Lubricants are vital for technology, saving energy and resources. The industry seeks sustainable solutions beyond fossil fuels. Solid lubricants offer extremely low friction and reduce environmental impact, especially in harsh conditions. Can these solids truly replace liquid lubricants, or are they limited to extreme applications?
