Tuning the Dielectric Properties of Individual Clay Nanosheets by Interlayer Composition: Toward Nano‐Electret Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The dielectric properties of clays are studied on the level of individual monolayers and functional double stacks. The material breakdown characteristics and charge storage performance are analyzed. For illustration, a defined charge pattern representing a cuneiform character is produced, written into a microscopic clay tile, referencing the origins of

A New Threshold Switching Device With Tunable Negative Differential Resistance Based on ErMnO3 Polymorphs

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Polymorph engineering in ErMnO3 enables low‐voltage, forming‐free threshold switching with tunable negative differential resistance. Conducting orthorhombic regions embedded in an insulating hexagonal matrix provide controlled Joule‐heating‐enhanced Poole–Frenkel transport. The hexagonal phase prevents excessive heating and breakdown.

An Engineered Living Material With Pro‐Angiogenic Activity Inducible by Near‐Infrared Light

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
NIR‐responsive engineered living materials (ELMs) for controlled angiogenesis: Near‐infrared (800 nm) light activates engineered probiotic bacteria within alginate‐based living materials to secrete a blood vessel‐regenerating protein. The released protein promotes pro‐angiogenic effects in endothelial networks and chick chorioallantoic membranes.

Turnout Switch Machine Fault Diagnosis Based on 1DCBA

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series
Abstract Turnout switch machine fault data is characterized by limited quantity and imbalanced class distribution. This limits the use of deep learning in fault diagnosis applications. Therefore, this paper presents a fault diagnosis method for turnout switch machines based on the 1DCBA model.

Diamagnetic Screening in the Electromagnetic Turnout Switch for a High-Temperature Superconducting Maglev System

open access: yesSustainability, 2023
Maglev systems represent a cutting-edge high-speed transport technology, and turnout switches play a critical role in the creation of a highly branched network. There are two common types of turnouts for high-temperature superconducting (HTS) Maglev systems: mechanical and electromagnetic.

Photon Avalanching Nanoparticles: The Next Generation of Upconverting Nanomaterials?

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This Perspective outlines the mechanistic foundations that enable photon‐avalanche (PA) behavior in lanthanide nanomaterials and contrasts them with emerging application spaces and forward‐looking design strategies. By bridging threshold engineering, energy‐transfer dynamics, and materials engineering, we provide a coherent roadmap for advancing the ...

Study on wear characteristics and authorized limits of switch rails of high-speed turnout

open access: yesRailway Sciences, 2023
PurposeIt is quite universal for high-speed turnouts to be exposed to the wear of the stock rail of the switch rail during the service process. The wear will cause the change of railhead profile and the relative positions of the switch rail and the stock rail, which will directly affect the wheel–rail contact state and wheel load transition when a ...

Omnipolar Magnetic Field Detection by Superlattice‐Based Hall Sensor

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Magnetic‐field‐induced electronic switching is demonstrated in unit‐cell‐engineered La0.7Sr0.3MnO3–BiFeO3 superlattices. Distinct substrate terminations modify magnetic and transport properties. Hall resistance measurements show omnipolar, hysteretic anomalous Hall switching above the Curie temperature, arising from Fe─Mn interfacial exchange, enabling

Wear and Plasticity in Railway Turnout Crossings: A Fast Semi-Physical Model to Replace FE Simulations

open access: yesMachines
Severe changes in the profiles of the crossing nose are caused by large dynamic contact forces. To predict these forces as well as the profile evolution, the Whole System Model (WSM) was developed.
