Lap shear and peel are common tests for soft materials, but their results are not often compared. In our recent paper, we compare lap shear and peel for measuring toughness Zhigang Suo Tenghao Yin . sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Thank you Rui Huang for getting us together to talk about mechanics of gels for so long, all the way to the Memorial weekend. All: please retweet and watch videos. Yecheng Wang Baohong Chen Junsoo Kim Jason Steck Atte Kadoma Yakov Kutsovsky Guogao Zhang meixuanzi shi

In our new paper, we develop a method for signal transduction between magnets and ions. An ionotronic transformer is designed for noncontact power transmission and motion detection. Thank Prof. Zhigang Suo , Prof. Kun Jia, and all the collaborators! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

So excited to see our new paper online! We develop a new type of thermometer using junctions between mobile ions and mobile electrons. Sincere gratitude to Prof. Zhigang Suo , Prof. Ryan Hayward, Prof. Kun Jia, and all the collaborators! pnas.org/content/119/4/…

A beautifully written story about our recent work: "A soft, stretchable thermometer—Self-powered sensor can be integrated into soft robots, smart clothing". Zhigang Suo Harvard SEAS

Temperature affects every physical property. In principle, every physical property can function as a thermometer. In this PNAS paper, we develop a new class of thermometers that can be made soft, stretchable, transparent, at low cost. Yecheng Wang Harvard SEAS

Our PNAS paper on a new type of soft, stretchable thermometer was reported by Physics Today ! Zhigang Suo Harvard SEAS physicstoday.scitation.org/do/10.1063/PT.…

Congratulations, my dear advisor Zhigang Suo!
