Self‐Spiking Linear Neuromorphic Soft Pressure Sensor for Underwater Sensing Applications
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study presents a novel design of a neuromorphic pressure sensor that can generate self‐spiking symmetric signals with direct event‐based encoding through the integration of magnetic spheres and alternating coil circuits. The key advantages of this work include high linearity up to 200 kPa (R2 = 0.997), self‐spiking behavior for simplified signal ...

Light‐Activated Micromotors in Air Propelled by Thermal Convection
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Near‐infrared‐driven micromotors in air can overcome gravity and generate convective motion by a light‐induced thermal mechanism driven by a temperature gradient in the air caused by the interaction of the gold nanoparticles present on the surface of ZnO and NIR irradiation.

Programmable Continuous Electrowetting of Liquid Metal for Reconfigurable Electronics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This work introduces a programmable continuous electrowetting (CEW) approach for the dynamic manipulation of liquid metal (LM), enabling directional control via electrochemical modulation. By leveraging laser‐induced graphene (LIG) substrates, a wide range of utilities is demonstrated, including fluidic “valves,” logic gates, and reconfigurable ...

Laser‐Patternable and Stretchable Metal Electrodes Using Metal–Amine Coordination Complexes
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A stretchable electrode, called the metal–amine coordination‐complex‐based electrode (MACE), is introduced, which involves the formation of coordination complexes between a metal and an organic layer. MACE exhibits excellent stretchability of up to 70% and stability under both air and wet conditions.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The photothermally powered microgel is designed to mechanically train mesenchymal stem cells using spatially patterned exogenous forces in three‐dimensional (3D) workspaces. When microgels are activated selectively via photothermal actuation, locally confined tens of nN forces are exerted on cells, triggering osteogenic differentiation in encapsulated ...
