Stretchable electronic platform for soft and smart contact lens applications [PDF]

, 2017
A stretchable platform with spherical-shaped electronics based on thermo- plastic polyurethane (TPU) is introduced for soft smart contact lenses. The low glass transition temperature of TPU, its relatively low hardness, and its proven biocompatibility (

Designing of Self‐Dispersing Soft Dendritic Microcleaners for Microplastics Capture and Recovery

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The capture and recovery of microplastics from open aquatic systems is a complex problem, which necessitates nontrivial solutions. The principles of a comprehensive multistage process based on sustainably sourced microcleaners with hierarchical morphology are demonstrated.

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

Photonics
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

Exchange of Tears under a Contact Lens Is Driven by Distortions of the Contact Lens [PDF]

Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2014
We studied the flow of the post-lens tear film under a soft contact lens to understand how the design parameters of contact lenses can affect ocular health. When a soft contact lens is inserted, the blinking eyelid causes the lens to stretch in order to conform to the shape of the eye.

Roulette‐Inspired Physical Unclonable Functions: Stochastic yet Deterministic Multi‐Bit Patterning through the Solutal Marangoni Effect

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Geometric multi‐bit patterning based on dynamic wetting and dewetting phenomena creates roulette‐like Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) labels with stochastic yet deterministic properties. This method leverages the solutal‐Marangoni effect for high randomness while achieving deterministic multinary patterns through polygonal confinement of binary ...
