Photochromic Diarylethene‐doped SU‐8 for Rewritable Optics and Integrated Photonic Switching

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A CMOS‐compatible photochromic host–guest material platform is realized by incorporating diarylethene molecules into SU‐8 photoresist. Reversible photoisomerization enables light‐programmable optical absorption, allowing rewritable optical patterning and port‐selective attenuation in integrated waveguides.

Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots for Targeted In Vivo Drug Delivery in the GI Tract

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We introduce a microrobot design and integrated system for on‐demand targeted drug release in the gastrointestinal tract. The microrobot has an embedded magnet for actuation with external magnetic fields and is visualized in real time using ultrasound. It has two drug release ports sealed with a thermally sensitive wax. Local heating of the wax using a

3D‐Printing Aided Rapid Prototyping of Pretensioned Tensegrity Structures for Robotic Applications

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Printing, injection molding, and assembly (PMA) is a method for rapid prototyping mesoscale, topologically complex, and tensioned tensegrity structures. In combination with PMA method, two mold design strategies: modular mold and compact channel layout, enable efficiency and scalability for tensegrity fabrication.

CESSATION OF RESPIRATORY EXCHANGE

Annals of Surgery, 1941
In observing the artificial state of disturbed function known as anesthesia, the anesthetist has almost constant occasion to study respiratory problems, which in other branches of medicine are encountered so infrequently as to prevent familiarity. It therefore seems to be within the anesthetist's province to offer his views on this subject.
