Soft technology has been an emerging field since flexible and wearable electronics started flourishing. In this research field, oxides can play an important role due to their intriguing functionalities and superior thermal and chemical stabilities. To deliver high-quality thin films or structures based on oxides, heteroepitaxy is essential. However, the lack of a suitable approach remains an obstacle for flexible oxide heteroepitaxy. Recently, due to the advancement of growth facilities and characterization tools, various techniques have been employed to acquire flexible oxide heteroepitaxy. This review highlights the methods as well as direct and indirect approaches that are essential for developing oxide heteroepitaxy with mechanical flexibility. We also provide an overview, classifying the fields in terms of applications involving flexible oxide heteroepitaxy and the development of oxide-based approaches.

Diverse insects are associated with ancient bacterial symbionts, whose genomes have often suffered drastic reduction and degeneration. In extreme cases, such symbiont genomes seem almost unable to sustain the basic cellular functioning, which comprises an open question in the evolution of symbiosis. Here, we report an insect group wherein an ancient symbiont lineage suffering massive genome erosion has experienced recurrent extinction and replacement by host-associated pathogenic microbes. Cicadas are associated with the ancient bacterial co-obligate symbionts Sulcia and Hodgkinia, whose streamlined genomes are specialized for synthesizing essential amino acids, thereby enabling the host to live on plant sap. However, our inspection of 24 Japanese cicada species revealed that while all species possessed Sulcia, only nine species retained Hodgkinia, and their genomes exhibited substantial structural instability. The remaining 15 species lacked Hodgkinia and instead harbored yeastlike fungal symbionts. Detailed phylogenetic analyses uncovered repeated Hodgkinia-fungus and fungus-fungus replacements in cicadas. The fungal symbionts were phylogenetically intermingled with cicada-parasitizing Ophiocordyceps fungi, identifying entomopathogenic origins of the fungal symbionts. Most fungal symbionts of cicadas were uncultivable, but the fungal symbiont of Meimuna opalifera was cultivable, possibly because it is at an early stage of fungal symbiont replacement. Genome sequencing of the fungal symbiont revealed its metabolic versatility, presumably capable of synthesizing almost all amino acids, vitamins, and other metabolites, which is more than sufficient to compensate for the Hodgkinia loss. These findings highlight a straightforward ecological and evolutionary connection between parasitism and symbiosis, which may provide an evolutionary trajectory to renovate deteriorated ancient symbiosis via pathogen domestication.

Hierarchical structures are commonly observed in nature and possess unique properties. The fabrication of hierarchical structures with well-controlled sizes in different length scales, however, is still a great challenge. To further understand the morphologies and properties of the hierarchical structures, here we present a novel strategy to prepare hierarchical polymer structures by combining the modified breath figure method and the template method. Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) honeycomb films with regular micropores are first prepared using the modified breath figure method by dipping PMMA films into mixtures of chloroform and methanol. The polymer chains on the honeycomb films are then annealed and wetted into the nanopores of anodic aluminum oxide templates via capillary forces, resulting in the formation of hierarchical polymer structures. The morphologies of the polymer structures, which can be controlled by the molecular weights of the polymers and the concentrations of the polymer solutions, are characterized by scanning electron microscopy. The surface wettabilities of the polymer structures are also examined by water contact angle measurements, and the hierarchical structures are observed to be more hydrophobic than the flat films and honeycomb films. This work not only provides a feasible approach to fabricate hierarchical polymer structures with controlled sizes but also gives a better understanding of the relationship between surface morphologies and properties.

The device performance of inverted organic metallohalide perovskite solar cells (OMPSCs) is optimized via tailoring the electrode surfaces with electron- and hole-transporting materials. This work demonstrates the fabrication of PEDOT:PSS-free OMPSCs using' a hole-transporting composite material consisting of bilayered vanadium oxide (VOx) and a thermally cross-linked triarylamine-based material X-DVTPD, which contributes to higher V-oc and J(sc) values. The hydrophobicity of X-DVTPD resulted in the formation of large perovskite crystals and enhanced the stability of OMPSCs. Integration of ionic fullerene derivative, fulleropyrrolidinium iodide, in OMPSCs as a hole-blocking interfacial layer at the interface with Ag proves effective to further boost the device efficiency to 18.08%.

We investigated femtosecond laser trapping dynamics of silica nanoparticles with different hydrophobic surface properties. We demonstrated that the hydrophobic surface on the silica nanoparticles facilitates mutual association of the nanoparticles in the optical trapping site. Such association of optically trapped nanoparticles is a prerequisite to induce their directional ejection away from the trapping site. The directional ejection of the optically trapped nanoparticles is most probably due to asymmetric three-dimensional ejecting forces generated by the electromagnetic interaction between transient assembly in the focal spot and the incident pulses. These findings provide important insights into the directional ejection of nanoparticles from the trapping site in the femtosecond laser trapping, and this physicochemical phenomenon is controlled by both the trapping laser and material properties.

We will study the cosmological implications of the five dimensional scalar-vector and scalar-Kalb-Ramond model. In particular, a new set of Bianchi type I power-law analytic solution will be obtained for this model. The cosmic no-hair conjecture can be shown to break down in the presence of the scalar-vector and scalar-Kalb-Ramond couplings. The effect of the Kalb-Ramond field in the presence of the power-law solution will be shown explicitly. We will also show that the presence of a phantom field does, however, destabilize the corresponding Bianchi type I power-law inflationary solutions.

The plasmon-induced charge separation between metallic nanoparticles and a semiconductor following an electron transfer process has been extensively studied as one of the mechanisms in plasmonic light energy conversion devices. In this study, we propose that the switching of photocurrent polarity can be realized by changing the rectification properties of plasmonic photoelectric conversion devices and utilizing the difference in carrier mobility between electrons and holes. We fabricated plasmonic photoelectric conversion devices using gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs), nickel oxide (NiO), and mobility-limited TiO2 (ML-TiO2) to control the photocurrent polarity according to irradiation wavelengths of visible and UV light. A pulsed laser deposition technique was employed to deposit the ML-TiO2 and NiO layers. The photoelectric properties were measured, and in situ spectroelectrochemical measurements were performed to investigate the relationship between the rectification properties of the plasmonic photoelectric conversion devices and the change in the Fermi level of the Au-NPs under UV light irradiation condition. Additionally, UV and visible light irradiation selectively induced the current of opposite polarity with the small applied voltage. The electron transfer phenomena from ML-TiO2 to Au-NPs and from Au-NPs to ML-TiO2 give us important information to understand plasmon-related charge separation.

An error in tomographic reconstruction parameters can result considerable artifacts in the reconstructed image, particularly in micro-computed tomography and nano-computed tomography. This study involved designing an automatic method for efficiently correcting errors resulting from incorrectly determined rotational axes and projection angles. In this method, errors are corrected by minimizing the "total variation" of a reconstructed image, and minimization is accomplished by using the gradient descent method. Compared with two previous methods, the proposed method achieved the best reconstruction results.

關於倒社

成立社團和結束社團那個比較困難？我的答案是，都很難。成立的元老滿腔熱血，不一定能順利傳承給後代，但他們終究會畢業，沒有接班人或是接班人硬著頭皮撐，終究還是會倒。新成立的社團在三年內結束的，應該有一半以上。不過，沒有沉重的歷史包袱，這些社團多數可以走得很瀟灑，大不了等創社學長姐畢業後再倒。最難結束的是老社團，有的有學長姐，有的有老師，有的有校外機構等外部壓力，只剩唯一的社長，沒有新生接棒，還是不能倒。「不能倒在我手上」、「下學期新生進來，讓他接手」、「老師說……」類似「不倒翁」的說詞耳熟能詳，聽起來社團像是手握鬼牌，等著脫手抽身──我遊戲結束，抽到的人慢慢玩。我認為，如果你沒辦法熱血創一個社團，卻有機會冷血結束一個社團，那麼我會給你同樣高度的評價。或許有人會說，課外組不是應該鼓勵經營社團，怎麼會鼓勵倒社？我必須澄清，假設社長還有意願經營社團，那怕只剩社長一個人，我都願意幫他想辦法繼續，但我不能接受「不倒翁」的說詞。我認為能夠有勇氣面對歷史壓力，有責任感地結束社團，反而是值得肯定的。「倒社會記過嗎？」我曾不只一次被試探性地詢問。我不確定，是否因為現在國高中倒社有記過，導致有這樣的誤解。「不會！」從來沒有人因為倒社被記過。所以，如果你累了，一個人好苦，記得可以找我辦理停社。對了，我們行政程序稱它「停社」，停社是不是聽起來優雅多了？

撥穗典禮司儀初體驗
(國立陽明大學, 2018-06-29)

六月是台灣的畢業季，當大家都結束了在大學或研究所的生活時，今年六月我卻有了一次全新的生命體驗！五月中時，經由前一屆撥穗典禮司儀的推薦，我被推薦為這一屆撥穗典禮的司儀。這樣一件突如其來的消息，讓我有些許措手不及，也讓我遲疑了一下，心想是否該接下這個任務。一方面想著班上其實還有其他適合的司儀人選；另一方面，心又糾結在想要在人生中放手一搏，脫離自己的舒適圈，嘗試一些不同的人生經驗。最終，我被第二個理由說服了，決定接下此次的工作，想要為自己的人生添加不同的色彩。五月三十日，我帶著一顆既緊張又期待的心情，進入生命科學院的辦公室，準備領取司儀稿，並在現場演示一次。處室人員先將司儀稿與整個撥穗暨授證典禮的流程順了一次後，即叫我現場看司儀稿演示一遍。此時，我的心不停狂跳，手也緊張到不停發冷汗，但我還是努力地一字一句，依照自己的語調念了一次，也得到了不少的回饋以及建議，讓我更有信心能做好這件事。
