Directional Torsion Sensor Based on a Paired Helical-Type Multimode Fiber

Sensors
A torsion sensor with directional discrimination based on a single-mode–twisted multimode–single-mode (STMS) fiber structure is demonstrated. The STMS fiber structure is fabricated by fusion-splicing a segment of multimode fiber (MMF) between two single ...

Randomly Twisted Hypercubes: Between Structure and Randomness

Random Structures & Algorithms
ABSTRACTTwisted hypercubes are generalizations of the Boolean hypercube, obtained by iteratively connecting two instances of a graph by a uniformly random perfect matching. Dudek et al. showed that when the two instances are independent, these graphs have optimal diameter.

Using the Photostationary State of Arylazopyrazoles to Control Phase Transitions of Liquid Crystals

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A series of new arylazopyrazole photoswitches is designed as dopants for liquid crystalline materials. Unprecedented, the distribution of photoisomers at the photostationary state upon irradiation with light of specific wavelengths (365, 460, 520 nm) is used to control the liquid crystalline phase transitions under isothermal conditions, including ...

Tuning the lattice thermal conductivity of Janus SnSSe by interlayer twisting: a machine-learning-based study

New Journal of Physics
Twisted two-dimensional materials have recently attracted tremendous interest owing to their unique structures and fantastic electronic properties. However, the effect of interlayer twisting on the phonon transport properties is less known, especially ...

Bio‐Inspired Nanoarchitected LiFePO4 Cathodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) is synthesized using a bio‐inspired method, using acidic macromolecules similar to those found in many calcareous mineralized organisms to modulate the morphology and crystal growth of LFP‐carbon composite particles. The observations from this process indicate a non‐classical crystallization process, which subsequently ...

Encoding Magnetic Anisotropies in Digital Light Processing 3D Printing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid magnetic device—combining a coaxial coil within a nested Halbach array—is presented, integrated into a DLP 3D printer to enable spatially resolved magnetic field control. This system enables complex, multimodal responses by programming liquid crystal elastomer resins for magnetic and thermal actuation, and by inducing electrically conductive ...

Spin–orbit interactions of twisted random light

APL Photonics
The twist phase of random light represents a nontrivial two-point phase, endowing the field with orbital angular momentum. Although the mutual transition of the spin and orbit angular momenta of coherent light has been revealed, the relationship between ...

An Ultrafast Self‐Gelling Versatile Hydrogel for Rapid Infected Burn Wound Repair in Military Medicine

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A self‐gelling PG@PAC (POD/Gel‐CDH@PA/CHX) powder is developed for infected burn care in austere settings. Upon contact with wound exudate, it instantly forms an adhesive hydrogel, providing simultaneous hemostasis, broad‐spectrum antibacterial activity, reactive oxygen species scavenging, and immunomodulation. In a murine model of S.
