Hybrid Heterostructures of Nanostructured Si Membrane and MoS2 for Self‐Powered Photodetectors
A scalable MoS2/Si nanomesh vertical heterostructure is developed for self‐powered photodetection. The nanostructured junction enhances conductivity, expands the active heterointerface, and enables a transition from photovoltaic to avalanche‐assisted operation, delivering markedly improved photoresponse over planar counterparts.

A Soft Robotic Jellyfish with Decoupled Actuators for Agile 3D Locomotion
This study presents a soft robotic jellyfish featuring a functionally decoupled actuation architecture. By separating propulsion, steering, and vertical regulation into independent modules, the robot overcomes conventional coupled‐motion limitations. Utilizing a passive‐valve‐based differential drag strategy and lateral water jets, it achieves agile 3D

ABSTRACT A new type of thin‐film nanocomposite (TFN) membrane was synthesized by incorporating cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) into a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) top layer on a polycarbonate (PC) substrate via dip‐coating. The synthesized TFC and TFN membranes (PC/PVA TFC and PC/PVA‐CNC TFN membranes) were evaluated using contact angle measurement, field ...
