Hydrogel‐Based Method for High‐Resolution Measurements of Contact Mechanics in Rapid Biological Adhesives: A Case Study in Cuttlefish Tentacle Strikes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cuttlefish and squid can catch their prey within milliseconds using specialized tentacles and suckers. The physics of how the suckers can attach so quickly has remained a mystery given the technical challenges of studying them in vivo. In this publication, we develop a hydrogel that retains imprints of the suckers in order to estimate the forces they ...

Multi‐Li+ Coordination for Superior Room‐Temperature Ionic Conductivity in PEO Solid Electrolytes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A phosphonate‐functionalized polycarboxylate ether (P‐PCE) is introduced into PEO electrolytes to induce multi‐Li+ ions coordination, which effectively dissociates lithium salts, liberates Li+ from the strong chelation by PEO chains, and promotes fast Li+ hopping between adjacent coordination sites. Simultaneously, this design establishes dynamic, high‐

Near‐Infrared Imaging of H2O2 in Plants With Nanosensors Under Environmentally Changing Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This paper reports a ratiometric nanosensor enabling robust, multivariate detection of stress signals (H2O2) in plants, with high resistance to light fluctuations and mechanical disturbances. Single‐walled carbon nanotubes serve as the sensor, Egyptian Blue nanosheets serve as a stable reference, and plant autofluorescence serves as a label‐free ...
