In this study, ZnO<sub>x</sub>/SU-8 nanocomposite nanopillars with a diameter of 300 nm, fully infiltrated with a uniformly distributed, interpenetrating amorphous ZnO<sub>x</sub> filler network, were synthesized via vapor-phase infiltration (VPI). In-situ uniaxial nano-compression tests revealed that the modulus of resilience of ZnO<sub>x</sub>/SU-8 reaches ∼ 12 MJ/m<sup>3</sup>, which is an ultrahigh value among all engineering materials with comparable strength. In addition, the synthesis fidelity, inorganic infiltration depth, and mechanical performance were all significantly improved compared to VPI-synthesized AlO<sub>x</sub> nanocomposites. Thermal stability, another key requirement for M/NEMS device materials operating under extreme environments, was also notably enhanced. Furthermore, partial crystallization of the amorphous ZnO<sub>x</sub> fillers during annealing contributed to an additional increase in modulus of resilience, reaching up to ∼ 13.9 MJ/m<sup>3</sup>.

The conventional approaches, which typically rely on palladium-based activation to achieve metal-polymer adhesion, suffer from high cost, limited scalability, and environmental concerns. This work proposes a disruptive Pd-free surface modification strategy using a silane coupling agent to address the intrinsic adhesion issue between polycarbonate substrates and silver coatings. The introduced aminosilane layer forms chemical bonds onto the inner surface of a polymer hollow tube, enabling the further growth of silver layer.

Furthermore, we demonstrated a prototype automotive millimeter-wave radar system incorporating the fabricated waveguide for ranging applications.
