Open-Loop Woofer-Tweeter Control on the LAO Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics Testbed

open access: yes, 2007
Advances in micro deformable mirror (DM) technologies such as MEMs, have stimulated interest in the characteristics of systems that include a high stroke mirror in series with a high actuator count mirror.

A Visible Light‐Responsive Hydrogel to Study the Effect of Dynamic Tissue Stiffness on Cellular Mechanosensing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A visible light‐responsive polyacrylamide‐azobenzene hydrogel enables safe, reversible stiffness control for studying cell mechanobiology without harmful UV exposure. This approach reveals stem cells respond rapidly to mechanical changes, showing altered shape and protein distribution within one hour.

Payload characterization for CubeSat demonstration of MEMS deformable mirrors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Coronagraphic space telescopes require wavefront control systems for high-contrast imaging applications such as exoplanet direct imaging. High-actuator-count MEMS deformable mirrors (DM) are a key element of these wavefront control systems yet have not ...

A Comparison of the Mechanical Properties of ECM Components and Synthetic Self‐Assembling Peptides

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐assembling peptide hydrogels are increasingly utilized in biomedical applications. The authors review the key mechanical properties of these structures across multiple size scales and compare them to that of native extracellular matrix components, which are found to display a much wider range of structural attributes.

Novel unimorph deformable mirror for space applications

open access: yesInternational Conference on Space Optics, 2017
We have developed a new type of unimorph deformable mirror, designed to correct for low-order Zernike modes. The mirror has a clear optical aperture of 50 mm combined with large peak-to-valley Zernike amplitudes of up to 35 μm.

Interpenetrating Polymer Network Hydrogels with Tunable Viscoelasticity and Proteolytic Cleavability to Direct Stem Cells In Vitro

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A cell‐instructive hydrogel platform is introduced of interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) containing sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) and polyethylene glycol cross‐linked through chemical and physical interactions, respectively. The materials allow for the precise systematic modulation of stiffness, viscoelasticity, and proteolytic cleavability ...

Probiotic‐Based Mineralized Living Materials to Produce Antimicrobial Yogurts

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The self‐assembly and mineralization of collagen in the presence of probiotics produces hybrid living materials that hosts and protects the cells. Intra‐ and interfibrillar mineralization of collagen fibers, as occurring in bone, results, respectively, in a bulk and single‐cell protective layer of cells, that survive in simulated gastric conditions and,
