Abstract: Actuators which change shape in response to ambient pressure have great potential for use in extreme environments, from space to the deep ocean. Bi-layer actuators have so far not been explored to this end, despite their lightness and mechanical simplicity (there is no requirement for a separate power source or pump, for example) making them ideal for applications where transport and maintenance are difficult. In this paper, foam-based bilayer actuators powered by ambient pressure change have been constructed, modelled mathematically, characterised in terms of their actuating force, and built into deployable devices and metamaterial structures to showcase properties such as negative pressure expansivity. Actuators such as these are ideally suited for a range of applications, from deploying solar panels and sensors in space and extra-terrestrial atmospheres, to under-sea expandable structures and sensing.

Abstract: We report on the implementation of a radiotracer photoluminescence spectroscopy setup at the ISOLDE radioactive ion beam facility at CERN, enabling element-specific identification of optically active defects in solids. The method combines radioactive ion implantation with optical spectroscopy, allowing the temporal evolution of photoluminescence signals to be correlated directly with nuclear decay. The setup is currently optimized for color centers in diamond and related wide-bandgap materials and enables room-temperature measurements. The system consists of an optical microscope coupled to a fiber-fed Czerny-Turner spectrometer with a liquid-nitrogen-cooled CCD detector, providing the stability required for long-duration measurements. As a proof-of-principle, radioactive $^{75}$Ga was implanted into diamond as a precursor to produce $^{75}$Ge impurities. The photoluminescence band extending from 600 nm, corresponding to the well-known GeV$^{-}$ center, exhibits an exponential decay with a half-life of $82.3^{ 2.5}_{-2.3} \mathrm{min}$, in agreement with the known $\beta^{-}$ decay half-life of $^{75}$Ge of $82.78(4) \mathrm{min}$. This establishes a direct and unambiguous correlation between the observed spectral feature and its germanium origin. These results demonstrate the capability of the setup to perform element-specific optical spectroscopy and extend radiotracer methods to color centers in wide-bandgap materials, taking advantage of the uniquely broad range of radioactive isotopes available at ISOLDE.

The Trump administration has stacked a top chemical safety board with industry-aligned scientists
who have a range of financial conflicts of interest and stand to profit from deregulation,
public health advocates say.
The Environmental Protection Agency’s science advisory committee on chemicals (SACC)
is slated to review research for dozens of toxic chemicals during the new members’ terms.
At least 13 proposed Trump appointees are probably conflicted on the che…
