Laser Ablation Sampling With Low‐Power Plasma: A LA‐MIP‐MS Instrument for Spaceflight

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 3, 15 February 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is a commonly used ion source for mass spectrometry‐based chemical analysis of a wide range of materials. Traditional ICP ion sources use high power (> 1000 W) and significant gas flow (> 10 L/min), rendering them unsuitable for spaceflight, as they are too resource‐intensive for planetary spacecraft.

Smart and Flexible Optical Solar Reflectors for Passive Radiative Cooling Regulation in Space Using a W:VO2 Metasurface

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 3, 12 February 2026.
Passive regulation of thermal management in space relies on engineered radiative coatings that can vary their emissivity with temperature. Here a smart and flexible solution is presented combining a W:VO2 metasurface with a low‐emissivity solar reflector. This highly durable first‐surface coating survives space qualification tests and offers attractive

C+ 133.5 nm Emission Mechanisms on Mars Revealed by the MAVEN Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
C ^+ emission is generated by electron impact, dissociative ionization, photoionization, and resonant scattering with carbon-related atoms, molecules, and ions in the Martian ionosphere and thermosphere. The contribution of each mechanism to the emission,

Synthesis and Electronic Structure of the Fractionally Occupied Double Perovskite EuTa2O6 with Ordered Europium Vacancies

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 10, 2 February 2026.
Two‐dimensional electronic states are the foundation of modern semiconductor technology. Here, we report molecular‐beam epitaxy growth of fractional double perovskite, EuTa2O6. Reciprocal space mapping and transmission electron microscopy confirm a layered ordering of A‐site cations.

Disorder Scattering Induced Large Room Temperature Nonlinear Anomalous Hall Effect in a Semiconductor CdGeAs2

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 7, 2 February 2026.
Bulk CdGeAs2, a well‐known nonlinear optical semiconductor, exhibits an exceptionally large room‐temperature nonlinear Hall effect (NLHE), achieving a record‐high nonlinear Hall responsivity of 2.2 × 10−3 m/V. This pronounced NLHE enables broadband frequency mixing up to the megahertz regime, establishing CdGeAs2 as a promising platform for next ...

Phase Topology Stability of an Optical Vortex via an Electrically Controlled Twist‐Planar Oriented Liquid Crystal Fresnel Lens

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, Volume 14, Issue 5, 2 February 2026.
A simple and efficient method for determining the stability of optical vortices via Fourier transform using a conventional spherical lens is presented. The theoretical and experimental results demonstrate a practical approach to directly and unambiguously measure the magnitude and sign of the topological charge of a beam without altering an ...
