Hydrogel‐Based Functional Materials: Classifications, Properties, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Conductive hydrogels have emerged as promising materials for smart wearable devices due to their outstanding flexibility, multifunctionality, and biocompatibility. This review systematically summarizes recent progress in their design strategies, focusing on monomer systems and conductive components, and highlights key multifunctional properties such as

Distributional topological complexity and LS-category

open access: yes
We define a new version of Topological Complexity (TC) of a space, denoted as $\text{dTC}$, which, we think, fits better for motion planning for some autonomous systems. Like Topological complexity, \text{dTC} is also a homotopy invariant. Also, $\text{dTC}$ has a corresponding analog, denoted as $\text{dcat}$, to the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category ...

Substituent Effects on Cyanine Dyes Vary with Position and Chain Length

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
In cyanines, substituent effects vary as a function of substituent position and cyanine length. Electron‐donating‐ and ‐withdrawing groups at meso‐ and α‐positions of 4n+1/4n−1 long cyanines (n = 1, 2, 3…) cause opposing, hypsochromic and bathochromic shifts of the 1st UV–vis absorption bands.

Selective Crystal Growth and Optical Responses of 2H and 3R Polytypes in van der Waals Polar Insulator α‐In2Se3

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Selective growth protocols are established to obtain high‐quality bulk single crystals of the 2H and 3R polytypes of the vdW polar insulator α‐In2Se3, together with rapid, non‐destructive phase‐identification methods. Combined optical transmission and absolute reflectivity measurements, supported by DFT calculations, reveal distinct polytype‐dependent ...

Accelerating Luminescence in Nanostructures: Exploring the Physical Limits and Impact of Ultrafast Emission in Nanoscale Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent advances in accelerating luminescence in nanostructures through cooperative emission, resonator coupling, and nonlocal light–matter interactions. By unifying concepts such as excitonic superradiance, superfluorescence, and the plasmonic Purcell effect, it reveals physical limits of ultrafast emission and their potential ...

Information Transmission Strategies for Self‐Organized Robotic Aggregation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how information transmission influences the neighbor‐based self‐organized aggregation of swarm robots. We focus specifically on local interactions regarding information transfer and categorize previous studies based on the functions of the information exchanged.

Improving the Robustness of Visual Teach‐and‐Repeat Navigation Using Drift Error Correction and Event‐Based Vision for Low‐Light Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Visual teach‐and‐repeat (VTR) navigation allows robots to learn and follow routes without building a full metric map. We show that navigation accuracy for VTR can be improved by integrating a topological map with error‐drift correction based on stereo vision.
