Self-Assembly of Zinc Oxide Photonic Crystals in Viscous Liquids: Synthesis, Characterization, and Application to Colored Contact Lenses

open access: yesPhotonics
Structural color is a kind of natural color that widely exists in nature. The ordered microstructure of nano materials can absorb or reflect light of specific wavelength, thus showing colorful colors. Structural color is an ideal choice for color contact

A Prototype Antifungal Contact Lens [PDF]

open access: yesInvestigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2011
PURPOSE. To design a contact lens to treat and prevent fungal ocular infections.METHODS. Curved contact lenses were created by encapsulating econazole-impregnated poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) films in poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA) by ultraviolet photopolymerization.

Eco‐Fabricated Nanowave‐Textured Implants Drive Microtubule‐Assisted Nuclear Mechanotransduction and Chromatin Modification: Biophysical Priming for Osteogenesis and Bone Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Eco‐friendly nanowave‐textured implants produced via femtosecond laser fabrication enhance bone regeneration by orchestrating a precise mechanotransduction cascade. This nanotopography directs mesenchymal stem cell alignment and cytoskeletal organization, triggering changes in nuclear shape and chromatin acetylation that prime cells for osteogenesis ...

Decoding the Structure of Benzodithiophene Polymers for High‐Efficiency Organic Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique solid mesophase in top‐performing benzodithiophene‐based polymers for solar cells, comprising stacked solid‐like and liquid‐like layers. Combining nanoscale fibrillar domains with amorphous regions, it introduces a new structural paradigm.

Increase in choroidal thickness after blue light stimulation of the blind spot in young adults

open access: yesBioelectronic Medicine
Background Blue light activates melanopsin, a photopigment that is expressed in intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs). The axons of ipRGCs converge on the optic disc, which corresponds to the physiological blind spot in the visual ...

Stratification of Individual Symptoms of Contact Lens–Associated Dry Eye Using the iPhone App DryEyeRhythm: Crowdsourced Cross-Sectional Study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Internet Research, 2020
BackgroundDiscontinuation of contact lens use is mainly caused by contact lens–associated dry eye. It is crucial to delineate contact lens–associated dry eye's multifaceted nature to tailor treatment to each patient’s individual needs for future ...

Stein fillings of planar open books [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We prove that if a contact manifold $(M,\xi)$ is supported by a planar open book, then Euler characteristic and signature of any Stein filling of $(M,\xi)$ is bounded.

Influence of frozen capillary waves on contact mechanics

open access: yes, 2005
Free surfaces of liquids exhibit thermally excited (capillary) surface waves. We show that the surface roughness which results from capillary waves when a glassy material is cooled below the glass transition temperature can have a large influence on the ...
