This report describes the actuator functionality of a ceramic composite that uses the volume change caused by the insulator–metal (I–M) transition of VO2. When an electrical field was applied at 295 ...
Refractory high- or medium-entropy alloys (RHEAs or RMEAs) with excellent high-temperature mechanical properties and softening resistance have been proven to be the potential candidates for advanced ...
A robust radial junction (RJ) structure directly constructed upon the surface of a flexible Al foil substrate shows a promising potential to boost wearable and portable applications, where the ...
Floquet engineering is a widely applied method for temporally periodic driving in various quantum systems, capable of inducing emergent phenomena, such as Floquet states, Floquet topological ...
Thin ( ∼ 100 nm thick) hydrophobic polymer films are used in a plethora of applications where water repellency is required. However, hydrophobic film implementation in industry is limited due ...
In a gas adsorption–desorption process, gas desorption consumes energy, as well. Hence, the development of gas adsorption–desorption methods and/or adsorbent materials with low-energy consumption for ...
Lead halide perovskite photodetectors exhibit outstanding photoelectric performance in multiple parameters and have become a widely studied hotspot. The perovskite with single crystal structures ...
The acoustic impedance mismatch between water and air limits the acoustic communication through the water–air interface. Here, based on the resonances of bubbles, we propose a metasurface consisting ...
Electromagnetic waves carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM and vortex waves) attract much attention due to their specific characteristics and prospects for use in wireless communication, biomedical ...
