Rigid Boron‐Fused Frameworks for Efficient Near‐Infrared Emission and Optical Gain Beyond 900 nm
Multiple‐resonance (MR)‐derived boron‐fused frameworks were integrated into narrow‐gap, long‐range charge‐transfer emitters to reduce structural relaxation and electron‐vibrational coupling. This strategy significantly decreases nonradiative losses, leading to improved near‐infrared (NIR) luminescence efficiency and low‐threshold amplified spontaneous ...

Automated poultry processing lines still rely on humans to lift slippery, easily bruised carcasses onto a shackle conveyor. Deformability, anatomical variance, and hygiene rules make conventional suction and scripted motions unreliable. We present ChicGrasp, an end‐to‐end hardware‐software co‐designed imitation learning framework, to offer a ...

Numerical Modeling of Photothermal Self‐Excited Composite Oscillators
We present a numerical framework for simulating photothermal self‐excited oscillations. The driving mechanism is elucidated by highlighting the roles of inertia and overshoot, as well as the phase lag between the thermal moment and the oscillation angle, which together construct the feedback loop between the system state and the environmental stimulus.
