Quantum-enhanced imaging for characterizing anisotropic material

open access: yesnpj Quantum Information
Polarimetric imaging, a technique that captures the invisible polarization-related properties of given materials, has broad applications from fundamental physics to advanced fields such as target recognition, stress detection, biomedical diagnosis and ...

Stress‐guided photo‐programming of cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers for 2D‐to‐3D shape–color information encoding

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
We reported a stress‐guided photo‐programming strategy that enables cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers (CLCEs) to achieve synchronous 3D shape morphing and structural color evolution from a single 2D film. Abstract Flexible materials with dynamic structural colors have attracted considerable interest for multilevel information interaction, showing ...

Acid Resistant and Highly Silver Selective Membranes Based on Charged Nanoporous 2D‐Materials

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
In this work, new membranes based on charged & nanoporous nanosheets with unprecedented selectivity to silver versus a wide range of other metallic ions are reported. Furthermore, a demonstrated and lead specific intralamellar lead pathway is demonstrated. A potential applicability for ubiquitous silver in WEEE is validated.

Shear‐Induced Anisotropic Supramolecular Gel Noodles for Improved Cell Guidance in Polarized Tissue Engineering

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A simple two‐stage extrusion aligns supramolecular fibrils into 1D gel noodles. The residual pressure in the viscous pre‐gel drives the formation of a thin filament that is locked by Ca2+ cross‐linker into a highly anisotropic segment. The aligned noodles show enhanced tensile strength and guide myoblast elongation along the fiber, mimicking aligned ...

Delamination of Vermiculite into Ultrahigh‐Aspect‐Ratio Nanosheets

open access: yesZeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, EarlyView.
Efficient ion exchange allows for thermodynamically driven delamination of vermiculite into high‐aspect ratio nanosheets. The applicability of sustainable materials in the packaging industry is currently limited by the poor gas barrier performance of most biodegradable polymers.

Investigating Technology and Raw Materials Source of the Archaic and Classical Architectural Terracottas From the Athenaion in Castro (Apulia, Italy)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since 2000, archaeological excavations have brought to light the sanctuary of Athena in Castro (Apulia, Italy), including terracotta roofs dated between the 6th and 4th centuries bce. Based on their morphological and stylistic features, it is suggested that the terracotta items were manufactured in the Greek colony of Taras (modern Taranto ...

First Insights on Photoreceptor Organ Ultrastructure in Marine Chaetonotida (Gastrotricha): Species of Xenotrichula and Draculiciteria (Xenotrichulidae)

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine gastrotrichs inhabit sediments with limited available light, yet evidence suggests that photoreceptor organs are present throughout the phylum Gastrotricha. Here, we confirm this proposition with ultrastructural descriptions of photoreceptive organs in two species of Xenotrichulidae (Order Chaetonotida) that lack pigmented ocelli ...

Compatibility of personal care thickening polymers in sulphate‐free surfactants

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Phase behaviour for alpha olefin sulfonate surfactant 10–15 wt% combined with 1 wt% sodium carboxy methyl cellulose, clearly indicating the sensitivity in miscibility when adding various levels of background salt. Abstract Objective Formulators today know that when traditional surfactants and polymers are replaced new problems occur. What was before a ‘

Advancing collagen‐related pathology assessment through second‐harmonic generation imaging

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Collagen remodelling and dysregulation are the hallmarks of diverse pathological conditions. In this context, second‐harmonic generation (SHG) imaging has emerged as a powerful label‐free modality for assessing collagen. This offers submicron resolution, intrinsic optical sectioning, and deeper imaging capabilities without the need for ...
