Summary: The ferroelectric properties and resistive switching behaviors of PZT/LSMO/NSTO heterostructures with different LSMO thicknesses were investigated. It was found that the ferroelectric properties were almost unaffected by the LSMO thickness, while the resistive switching behaviors were closely related to the LSMO thickness, with the maximum switching ratio occurring in the structure with LSMO thickness of 18 nm. Analysis of the energy band structures and I-V curves revealed that the resistive switching behaviors depended on the competition between the tunability of the depletion layer width and the ability of ferroelectric field effect.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of the interface contact condition on the resistive switching effects of metal/Nb:SrTiO3 heterojunctions. It is observed that in situ substrate cleaning treatment significantly weakens the resistive switching effect. SEM images show intimate contact between the metal and the in situ cleaned substrate, while poor contact is observed in the untreated interface. Our research provides an innovative approach to elucidate the mechanism of the resistive switching effect.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of oxygen vacancy profiles on the resistive switching (RS) behaviors in perovskite oxide-based memristors. It is found that improving the oxygen vacancies concentration in the LaNiO3 (LNO) film can enhance the resistance on/off ratio of high and low resistance states, with different conducting mechanisms involved. Increasing the oxygen vacancies at the LNO/Nb:SrTiO3 (NSTO) interface enables trap-assisted tunneling, thus improving the device performance. This work provides physical insights into strategies for enhancing the performance of Schottky junction-based memristors.

Summary: This study investigates current-induced magnetization switching and dampinglike field in Pt/Co/PtMn trilayer films with a wedged ultrathin antiferromagnetic (AFM) PtMn layer. By breaking the symmetry with the effective shape anisotropy in the wedged AFM PtMn layer, field-free SOT switching is observed. The study finds that the dampinglike field is boosted by up to 30% through wedging the AFM PtMn layer, and the canting of spins caused by the wedge shape accounts for the observed field-free switching and enhancement of SOT efficiency.

Summary: Many dopants have been explored to improve the heat storage performance and sintering resistance of Co3O4, but the performance of these materials is not comparable due to different synthesis methods and test conditions. This study systematically compared and screened nine dopants, including four unreported ones, under the same conditions. The results showed that Cu and Zr doping had the highest re-oxidation rate, while Si and Mg doping had adverse effects on the conversion rate. Cu-doped sample exhibited higher re-oxidation rate and energy density, while Zr-doped sample exhibited more stable cyclability.

Summary: In this paper, the application of active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) based on a neural network for the attitude control of a hypersonic vehicle (HV) with uncertain disturbances is investigated. The strong coupling of the HV poses challenges for separate ADRC design for each channel. A cascade active-rejection control scheme is proposed to mitigate this issue, using a Radial Basis Function (RBF) Neural Network instead of the Extended State Observer (ESO) in ADRC. The proposed NNESO-based cascade ADRC demonstrates effective disturbance resistance for HV control.

Summary: This paper investigates the robust approximate optimal control problem for air-breathing hypersonic vehicle (AHV) and proposed a robust approximate optimal controller based on adaptive dynamic programming (ADP). By input-output linearization and introducing auxiliary variables, the high-order nonlinear AHV dynamics are transformed to a second-order feedback decoupling model. The proposed controller considers both robustness and input cost, optimizes control actions, and avoids chattering. The use of a single critic network design ensures system stability and simplifies implementation. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Summary: In this paper, a new adaptive time-varying barrier Lyapunov function (A-TBLF) is proposed for spacecrafts with adaptive time-varying state constraints. The A-TBLF method adapts the barrier in real-time to ensure convergence of the constrained state into a predefined domain. It also includes a barrier update restart scheme to prevent barrier violations. Additionally, a nonlinear margin function is introduced to avoid input saturation and a finite-time estimation adaptive observer chain is proposed for accurate control input design.

Summary: Efficient integration of cell membrane-nanomaterial hybrids (CN hybrids) is crucial in bioanalysis. However, the poor dispersity of nanomaterials hinders its development. A method was proposed to improve integration efficiency by establishing a dynamic dispersion system to enhance the interaction between cell membranes and nanomaterials. The addition of dextran as a macromolecular stabilizer improved the dispersity of the nanomaterials and avoided resistance to membrane coating. The design principle provided a new perspective for optimizing the behavior of CN hybrids and enhancing their effectiveness in bioanalytical applications.

Summary: This paper studies the fault-tolerant control problem for a class of nonlinear systems with uncertain parameters and unknown actuator failures. An adaptive fault-tolerant control scheme based on event-triggered strategy is proposed, and a set of event-triggering conditions are designed for both the controller and the parameter estimators. It has been proven that the closed-loop signals are globally uniformly bounded and the system output converges to a compact set. A modified fault-tolerant control scheme is also designed for the case with a finite number of failures, ensuring the asymptotic convergence of system states. The effectiveness of the proposed schemes is illustrated through a robot manipulator example.
