Article Abstract
Metamaterials are solid lattices with periodicities commensurate with desired wavelengths. Their geometric features can endow the bulk material with unusual properties, such as inter alia, negative indices of refraction or unique absorbing qualities. Mesoscale metamaterials and phononic crystals can be designed to cause the occurence of band gaps in the ultrasonic domain. These localised phenomena induce fixed boundary conditions that correspond to acoustic mirrors which, in turn, can be used to establish waveguides in thin plates. Ultrasonic lubrication has been successfully applied to create haptic interfaces that operate by modulating the apparent friction of a surface. In this article, we demonstrate that phononic crystals can be designed to localise the modulation of friction in specific portions of the surface of a thin plate, opening novel possibilities for the design of surface haptic interfaces.

Selenium, as an important semiconductor material, exhibits significant potential for understanding lattice dynamics and thermoelectric applications through its thermal transport properties. Conventional empirical potentials are often unable to accurately describe the phonon transport properties of selenium crystals, which limits in-depth understanding of their thermal conduction mechanisms. To address this issue, this study developed a high-precision machine learning potential (MLP), with training datasets generated molecular dynamics simulations.

The impact of external pressure on the characteristics of SrTeO has been thoroughly examined using density-functional theory calculations up to 100 GPa. It has been predicted that SrTeO undergoes three phase transitions in the pressure range covered by this study. A first transition occurs at 2.

In this work, we performed systematic simulations on the crystal structures and electronic properties of Sc-S crystalline system at a pressure range of 20 to 200 GPa. Our results reveal several stable stoichiometries, such as ScS3, ScS2, Sc2S, and Sc3S. The further electron-phonon simulations indicate that Sc3S exhibits a superconducting critical temperature (Tc) of approximately 25 K at 200 GPa.

Near-infrared (NIR) detectors, serving as critical technological nodes bridging microscopic molecular recognition and macroscopic intelligent perception, meet the demands of cutting-edge technologies such as multispectral imaging. Organic semiconductor materials demonstrate unique advantages for NIR organic photodetectors (OPDs) due to their precisely tunable bandgaps, solution processability, flexibility compatibility, and biocompatibility. However, the narrow-bandgap intrinsic characteristics required for NIR response inevitably lead to carrier concentration surge that exponentially increases dark current, while hot carriers undergo phonon scattering relaxation that suppresses carrier collection.

0D hybrid manganese halides represent an emerging class of luminescent materials, yet their practical application has been hindered by the intrinsic trade-off between optical performance and mechanical flexibility. Here, a green synthesis of 0D (ECMP)MnBr crystal is reported, exhibiting unprecedented triple-mode emission (photoluminescence, X-ray scintillation, and mechanoluminescence) through rationally designed highly symmetric [MnBr] tetrahedra, achieving near-unity photoluminescence quantum yield (98.97%), record-low X-ray detection limit (15.
