An Ultra‐Wideband Metasurface Perfect Absorber Based on Hybrid Absorption Modes
A Ge2Sb2Te5 metasurface absorber enables polarization‐independent, ultrabroadband (UV–NIR) light absorption with high angular tolerance. Its performance stems from overlapping electric and magnetic dipole resonances in a symmetric structure, achieving 94% average absorption and maintaining 83% even at 70° incidence, promising for integrated ...

On–Off Switchable Micromotors for Use in Steerable Microvehicles
Electrically controllable micromotors and microvehicles are developed by tuning the diffusion of the fuel. Self‐propelled micromotors using bubble propulsion show great promise for miniaturized devices with multiuse purposes such as cargo delivery and sensing. However, there is currently no method to electrically switch the micromotors on or off. Here,
