Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Material‐Induced Nuclear Deformation Controls Chromatin Architecture in Adipose Stem Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tuning cell and cytoskeleton mechanics modulated nuclear shape and heterochromatin organization in ASCs. Distinct cytoskeletal architectures induced nuclear morphologies from oblate to prolate ellipsoids. Large elongated cells with a structured actin cap exhibited high nuclear strain, driving nuclear envelope deformation and heterochromatin ...

Planar biaxial testing of CXL strengthening effects

Experimental Eye Research
The stiffening effect of corneal crosslinking (CXL) treatment, a therapeutic approach for managing the progression of keratoconus, has been primarily investigated using uniaxial tensile experiments. However, this testing technique has several drawbacks and is unable to measure the mechanical response of cornea under a multiaxial loading state.

Rigid‐Flexible Coupling Units Enable Robust Large Birefringence

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A rigid–flexible coupling strategy, combining flexible (S3)2− linear units with rigid (VO4)3− tetrahedra, yields Sr4(VO4)2S3—a robust crystal exhibiting large birefringence (Δn = 0.52@550 nm) and remarkable thermal, air, and water stability. ABSTRACT Birefringent crystals are central to polarization control in laser technologies (e.g., wave plates and ...

Flexible Unusual Ternary‐Component Graded‐Modulus Dielectric Films with High‐Density Capacitive Energy Storage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hierarchical PP–LSR107–BaTiO3 nanocomposite films are fabricated by one‐step extrusion and stretching for roll‐to‐roll manufacture, combining high energy storage and processing flexibility. LSR107 surrounds BaTiO3‐rich regions, locating amorphous PP, decreasing defects, and introducing deep traps that homogenize the electric field and suppress charge ...
