3D‐Printed Actuator Powered by Liquid Crystal Elastomer Muscles at the Water–Air Interface
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Soft robots for unstructured environments require responsive, durable actuators. Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) provide large reversible deformations under thermal or optical stimuli. Direct ink writing enables fabrication of LCE actuators integrated with silicone, with mesogen chemistry and oligomers optimized for printable inks.

Angled Nozzle Aerosol Jet Printing to Streamline Conformal Patterning of Electronics
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A modular, angled aerosol jet printhead is demonstrated to streamline patterning on nonplanar surfaces, including 90° step edges and confined internal geometries. A detailed analysis of gravitational settling for a sheathed aerosol flow and deconvolution of oblique deposition and gravitational effects supports the versatility of this approach for ...

Dynamic Fluorescence Modulation via Light‐Driven Competitive Protonation
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.A two‐component molecular system demonstrates reversible, light‐driven fluorescence write–erase cycling and thermal imaging. Illumination of a merocyanine photoacid transfers a proton to a highly efficient fluorescent pyridinium dye, switching its emission color; thermal relaxation reverses the process in the dark.
