Liquid‐Crystal‐Based Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface for 7 GHz Mobile Communication
The glass‐based liquid‐crystal reconfigurable intelligent surface (LC‐RIS) integrates active‐matrix driving and blind‐greedy phase optimization within a 5G‐NR OFDM framework. This enables continuously tunable and autonomous enhancement of wireless coverage. Leveraging the transparency and manufacturability of liquid crystal panels, it is ideally suited

Dense tactile streams from across the humanoid body converge on collide in a central wiring and data bottleneck. By relocating computation closer to and then into the skin itself, near‐ and in‐sensor architectures, together with neuromorphic computing, chart a path toward perception‐native electronic skin, in which the conversion of stimulus into ...

Near‐Field Nanoimaging of Programmable Phase Transitions in Ga+‐Irradiated VO2
Focused Ga+ ion irradiation locally reprograms the insulator‐to‐metal transition in VO2 thin films. Infrared and terahertz near‐field nanoimaging reveals that low irradiation doses localize the resistive‐switching filament within the defect region, while high doses suppress switching there and redirect the filament into pristine VO2.

A back‐end‐of‐line‐compatible microheater platform enables localized synthesis and reversible switching of high‐quality VO2 directly on silicon photonic chips. The approach overcomes conventional thermal‐budget and patterning constraints while delivering device performance comparable to high‐temperature‐grown films, providing a scalable pathway for ...

A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in
