This review summarizes the controllable flow and manipulation of gallium‐based liquid
metals (eg, eutectic gallium indium, EGaIn). There are generally only a few ways to handle …

Roughly 90% of the world's energy use today involves generation or manipulation of heat
over a wide range of temperatures. Here, we note five key applications of research in …

As the cost of renewable energy falls below fossil fuels, the key barrier to widespread
sustainable electricity has become availability on demand. Energy storage can enable …

It is possible to improve the machinability of aluminum nitride-hexagonal boron nitride (AlN-
