Liquid crystal flexoelectric actuation uses an imposed electric field to create membrane bending and it is used by the Outer Hair Cells (OHC) located in the inner ear, whose role is to amplify sound through generation of mechanical power. Oscillations in the OHC membranes create periodic viscoelastic flows in the contacting fluid media. A key objective of this work on flexoelectric actuation re...

Electric field control of magnetism provides a promising route towards ultralow power information storage and sensor technologies. The effects of magneto-ionic motion have been prominently featured in the modification of interface characteristics. Here, we demonstrate magnetoelectric coupling moderated by voltage-driven oxygen migration beyond the interface in relatively thick AlOx/GdOx/Co(15 n...

We design a magneto-electro-elastic piezoelectric phononic crystal (MPPC) using one-dimensional superlattice (with 3m point group) and split-ring resonators. The effect of the resonators is to enhance superlattices. This will create elastic anomalies generate band gaps. These are first proposed theoretically. calculate transmission function MPPC through Transfer Matrix Method crystal. By functi...

This paper introduces a novel harvester to store the electrical power, which comes from power of external applied voltage. In last decade, most energy harvesters have been designed and analyzed in form cantilever beams. present article, are as beam with Euler-Bernoulli assumptions. The consists an active Magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) layer attached piezoelectric layer. Assuming that connection ...

In the present work, a nonlinear coupled electro-magneto-elastic membrane formulation is developed for soft functional materials starting from variational form of 3D governing equations. The resulting 2D model applied to an internally pressurized cylindrical in azimuthal magnetic field and radial electric field. results our are verified with existing literature some special cases. subsequently ...

External magnetic fields affect various electrochemical processes and can be used to enhance the efficiency of water splitting reaction. However, driving forces behind this effect are poorly understood due analytical challenges available interface-sensitive techniques. Here, we present a set-up based on magneto- electro-optical probing, which allows juxtapose properties electrode with current d...

We observe the phenomenon of the Faraday-like effect, which occurs in periodically poled lithium niobate with odd number of domains (OPPLN) by the transverse electro-optic (EO) effect under the quasi-phase-matching condition. In this case, light rotates in the reverse sense during the forward and the backward path, and OPPLN shows a nonreciprocal process that is similar to the magneto-optical F...
