A Body Conformal Ultrasound Receiver for Efficient and Stable Wireless Power Transfer in Deep Percutaneous Charging

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Implantable devices rely on batteries that demand surgical replacement, posing risks, and financial burdens. Ultrasound energy transfer (US‐ET) offers a revolutionary wireless alternative but struggles with efficiency. The presented dielectric‐ferroelectric‐boosted US‐TENG (US‐TENGDF‐B) is thin, flexible, and biocompatible that provides high‐efficiency

Length Functions and the Dimension of Points in Self-Similar Fractal Trees [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Theory, Volume 69, Issue 10, October 2023
In this paper, we study the effective dimension of points in infinite fractal trees generated recursively by a finite tree over some alphabet. Using unequal costs coding, we associate a length function with each such fractal tree and show that the channel capacity of the length function is equal to the similarity dimension of the fractal tree (up to a ...

Efficient Autonomous Dew Water Harvesting by Laser Micropatterning: Superhydrophilic and High Emissivity Robust Grooved Metallic Surfaces Enabling Filmwise Condensation and Radiative Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Laser micropatterning is presented as a promising technology in the search for autonomous dew water harvesting materials. Laser‐grooved metallic surfaces achieve simultaneously high infrared emissivity and superhydrophilicity, which gives them self‐cooling properties under atmospheric radiative deficit and the ability to condense water in an efficient ...

An evolutionary theory on virus mutation in COVID-19

open access: yesVirus Research
With the rapid evolution of SARS-CoV-2, the emergence of new strains is an intriguing question. This paper presents an evolutionary theory to analyze the mutations of the virus and identify the conditions that lead to the generation of new strains.

Enhanced Deformability Through Distributed Buckling in Stiff Quasicrystalline Architected Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Quasi‐periodic metamaterials combine stiffness and large‐strain deformability, overcoming limitations of traditional stretching‐dominated periodic designs that are prone to global buckling instabilities and catastrophic layer collapses. By leveraging non‐uniform force chains, they achieve high isotropic stiffness, stable deformation, and remarkable ...

Electron‐Beam‐Induced Adatom‐Vacancy‐Complexes in Mono‐ and Bilayer Phosphorene

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The stability of adatom‐vacancy‐complexes in mono‐ and bilayer phosphorene is shown via atomically‐resolved scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). With the help of density‐functional theory (DFT) simulations also several additional defect configurations were identified. Simulations are also used to understand defect dynamics.

Self‐Organized Growth of Catalyst‐Free Single Crystal WnO3n‐2 (n = 25) Nanowire Bundles on Si (111) via Selective He+ Ion Irradiation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A novel and efficient method is explored to synthesize 1D single‐crystal sub‐stoichiometric WnO3n‐2 (n = 25) nanowire bundles. The approach utilizes selective low‐energy He+ ion irradiation (27 eV) on Mo‐Ni doped WOx surface, achieving efficient catalyst‐free self‐organized growth of high aspect ratio nanowires at the temperature of 700 °C.
