An Injection‐Molded Modified Silicone Rubber for Cancer‐on‐Chip Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This study describes the characterization and application of an injection‐molded functionalized PDMS fluidic insert for the commercially available Micronit system. Modified PDMS can accommodate cell culture and is able to covalently bind proteins for long‐lasting coatings under flow‐conditions.

Half-Skyrmions, Tensor Forces and Symmetry Energy in Cold Dense Matter

, 2010
In a previous article, the 4D half-skyrmion (or 5D dyonic salt) structure of dense baryonic matter described in crystalline configuration in the large $N_c$ limit was shown to impact nontrivially on how anti-kaons behave in compressed nuclear matter with

Surface induced ordering effects in soft condensed matter systems [PDF]

Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2004
The symmetry break of the particle interaction field at surfaces causes a variety of interfacial effects including the variation of the relative stability of different phases of a given compound. In many materials surface melting is observed, i.e. a surface near a portion of the system is in a less ordered state than the bulk. Over the last two decades,

Unraveling the Effects of Improved Cooling and Bias Force in the Actuation of a Shape‐Memory Soft Multimaterial Gripper

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study examines a soft gripper with a NiTiCu6 Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) wire embedded in a graphene nanoparticle (GNP)‐functionalized PDMS matrix. Comparing GNP‐enhanced and plain elastomer prototypes, results show that GNPs improve cooling rates, accelerating release by 40%, but increase energy consumption in low‐current activations.

How to Manufacture Photonic Metamaterials

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Metamaterials boast applications such as invisibility and “hyperlenses” with resolution beyond the diffraction limit, but these applications haven’t been exploited in earnest and the market for them hasn’t grown much likely because facile and economical methods for fabricating them without defect has not emerged.

Locking in Color: Stable RGB Perovskite Nanocrystal Films via UV Cross‐Linking

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Combining block copolymer stabilized lead halide nanocrystals with a UV light‐based cross‐linking procedure yields ultra‐stable nanocrystal thin films, which are resistant to dissolution by organic solvents and impervious to interlayer ion exchange. This allows for the fabrication of stacked layer RGB all‐perovskite white light‐emitting phosphors with ...

Casimir forces in modulated systems

, 2004
For the first time we present analytical results for the contribution of electromagnetic fluctuations into thermodynamic properties of modulated systems, like cholesteric or smectic liquid crystalline films.

Optical Properties of Thin Films of Tin Iodide Perovskite Nanostructures

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A comprehensive spectroscopic study of thin films of 3D CsSnI3 nanocrystals (NCs) that coexist with residual 2D Ruddlesden‐Popper nanosheets (NSs) has been performed. Polymer encapsulation enables solid‐state stabilization of the tin iodide perovskite nanostructures, while insight into the energetics and dynamics of the NC and NS excitons is provided ...

Scintillation Response of 0D Cs3Cu2I5 Thin Layers to Light‐ and Heavy‐Ion Irradiation

Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
Driven by increasing interest in uncovering the remarkable photoluminescence quantum yield of Cs3Cu2I5, polycrystalline thin layers are synthesized to investigate its radioluminescence response to energetic ions. Its spectroscopic capability is assessed in a wide range of ion mass and internal excitation processes are explored.

Nanocrystalline Cellulose from the Solitary Tunicate Phallusia Mammillata, a Valuable Nanocellulose Precursor

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
This study explores the potential of locally harvested Phallusia mammillata, a tunicate usually discarded as waste from mussles farming as a viable source for producing various high‐grade cellulose derivatives in the form of nanofibrils (NFC) and nanocrystals (CNC). Abstract Ascidians are ubiquitous filter‐feeding marine invertebrates, the only animals
