Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...

The use of budgets by small and medium enterprises in Cape Metropolis, South Africa [PDF]
Problems and Perspectives in Management, 2016 Failure to budget has been identified as one of the main causes of failure of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). This study seeks to determine the extent to which SMEs in the Cape Metropolis use budgets.

Characterization of Complex Stacking of Semiconductors Through Near Field Imaging and Spectroscopy
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.SNOM imaging and spectroscopy on a mechanically cleaved facet is used to characterize the different layers of complex epitaxial heterostructures composed of a type II superlattice and highly doped semiconductors. Both the geometrical parameters of the stack and the optical properties of the individual layers and of the interfaces are retrieved, as well

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study demonstrates a self‐assembly process to generate free‐standing piezoelectric nanomembranes, forming ultracompact microtubular acoustic wave sensors and actuators. The miniaturized 3D piezoelectric platform reported in this work can be applied in telecommunication, energy harvesting, and acoustofluidics. Moreover, the 3D self‐assembly can add

High‐Performance Air‐Stable Polymer Monolayer Transistors for Monolithic 3D CMOS logics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A fibrillar polymer monolayer with a self‐confinement effect is demonstrated, in which aligned chains parallel the nanofiber axis. Employing a top‐gate CYTOP dielectric, this monolayer transistor achieves high mobility (7.12 cm2 V−1 s−1) and exceptional stability over 1260 days in air.
