Temperature-Tunable Heliconical and Ferroelectric Nematics for White Lasing. [PDF]
The discovery of the ferroelectric nematic (NF) phase in 2017 and the spontaneous symmetry‐breaking of the ferroelectric twist‐bend nematic (NTBF)phase in 2024 have made major breakthroughs in the context of self‐assembly materials. This study presents pioneering temperature and voltage‐tunable lasing in both phases, demonstrating multicolor and in ...

Understanding Volatile Electrical Switching in hBN Nanodevices by Fully Optical Operando Investigation. [PDF]
Operando optical characterization of vertical two‐terminal monolayer hexagonal Boron Nitride devices is used to gain new insight into the key role of defects in the dynamics of switching. Characterization of photoluminescence and dark‐field scattering light signals during electrical switching indicates that the formation of conductive filaments of gold

Evolution of Tungsten Fiber‐Reinforced Tungsten‐Remarks on Production and Joining
Material challenges for future fusion reactors demand advanced materials. W‐fiber‐reinforced W‐composite (W f/W) with improved toughness is a promising candidate. It can be produced via chemical vapor deposition or powder metallurgical routes. This review focuses on upscaling W f/W production for fusion applications.
