Ultrathin Al-Driven Polarity Engineering in Polycrystalline ZnO Thin Films on Flexible Glass for Sign-Reversible Piezoresistive and Photoconductive Responses

Flexible transparent devices require materials whose mechanical and optoelectronic responses can be tuned in a coordinated manner through interface design. This study shows that an ultrathin Al underlayer enables crystallographic polarity switching in c-axis-oriented polycrystall...

Trace Doping for Changing the Crystallization of Photonic Glass

ABSTRACT Crystallization in glasses is a universal phenomenon and nucleating agents are often employed as they are essential for controlling this crystallization process. It is widely recognized that nucleating agents, such as TiO 2 and ZrO 2 , function by forming heterogeneous i...

Engineered fused optical fiber bundle with embedded electrodes

We introduce a fused optical fiber bundle with embedded electrodes for electrically driven active fiber devices. Well-developed post-processing techniques are used to fuse together a variety of elements to create a structured cross-section enclosing both optical elements and elec...

Observation of Bridging Chlorine in Vitreous SiO2

Abstract The short-range to mid-range structure of inorganic glasses profoundly impacts their physical properties. In this work, we have used multiple spectroscopic methods to examine the change in the network structure of amorphous silica with addition of Cl. Unlike analogous F-...

Silver‐Decorated Graphene Mediates “Lithiene” Structured Interlayers for Ultrafast Lithium Transport in Solid‐State Batteries

ABSTRACT Solid‐state lithium metal batteries (SSLMBs) employing garnet‐type Li 6.5 La 3 Zr 1.5 Ta 0.5 O 12 (LLZTO) electrolytes offer a pathway to high energy density but are plagued by interfacial impedance and catastrophic dendrite propagation. Current interfacial engineering s...

Metastable Fingerprint States in a Frustrated Cholesteric Liquid Crystal

Abstract We demonstrate a metastable fingerprint (mFP) state in a homeotropically aligned cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) with negative dielectric anisotropy. The mFP forms upon gradual removal of a high-voltage, low-frequency electric field and persists for several hours at zer...

Effects of Different Farming Models on Muscle Nutrients, Muscle Transcriptome and Intestinal Microbiota in Pelodiscus sinensis

Farming models profoundly influence the biological traits of aquatic organisms. This study compared muscle nutrients, muscle transcriptome, and gut microbiota of Pelodiscus sinensis reared under rice-field and pond conditions. Compared with the pond group (Group P), the rice-fiel...

Trinity Antennas: flexible active radio frequency systems with intrinsic heat spreading

Conformal, high-density, and high-power integration for radio frequency systems is critical to future wireless communications. Alumina ceramic offers significant potential owing to its ultra-low dielectric loss tangent. However, wireless systems that exploit alumina’s thermal adv...
