Discovery of a disorder-driven electronic smectic phase in weakly correlated Dirac nodal line semimetal GdSbTe
2025-06-09 Electrons in solids can organize into unusual patterns, similar to liquid crystals, by breaking the crystalline symmetry of the host material. These so-called electronic liquid crystal phases usually appear in strongly correlated electron systems, such as high Tc cuprat......

Controlled nanoconfinement in a microfluidic modular bead array device via elastomeric diaphragm collapse for enhancing biomolecular binding kinetics
2025-05-23 Nanoconfinement is used to reduce diffusion limitations during biomolecular binding reactions in micro/nanofluidic environments. Under nanoconfined conditions, biomolecules experience an increased collision frequency, thereby enhancing binding efficiency. In this study,......
