Ultra‐High Friction and Adhesion in Hydrogel Layer Driven by Wet‐to‐Dry Transition Dynamics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work reveals a critical wet‐to‐dry transition in polyacrylamide hydrogel layers that induces volumetric shrinkage, resulting in enhanced interfacial contact and dramatically increased friction and adhesion. Leveraging this transition enables strong, reversible gripping on diverse surfaces, offering new insights for hydrogel‐based gripping ...

Burn‐Safe Biodegradable Magnetocaloric Composites for Temperature‐Controlled Biomedical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work investigates a magnetocaloric (Mn,Fe)2(P,Si) compound tailored for precise, self‐regulating heating in biomedical use. With a Curie temperature tuned at 43 °C, it enables therapeutic activation without overheating. Encapsulation in a composite ensures controlled temperature rise under an alternating magnetic field (AMF), with high ...

Regulation of Excitonic Behavior in Defective Acetylenic Polymers Enables Mechanism Switching in O2 Activation for Enhanced Water Decontamination

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A molecular defect‐mediated charge accumulation strategy is developed to regulate the exciton behavior for selective molecular oxygen (O2)activation in poly(1,3,5‐triethynylbenzene) (PTEB). Artificial internal electric field (IEF) constructed in defective PTEB provides internal driving force to steer the directed migration of charge carriers, thereby ...

Tunable dipole antennas

Proceedings of IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium, 2002
The concept of extending the operating bandwidth of a dipole has been investigated, and two bandwidth extension approaches were studied. The first approach involves the use of parasitic elements to physically change the length of the dipole. The second approach involves capacitively loading a dipole via varactor diodes to produce a travelling-wave ...

3D-fractal rectangular Koch Dipole and Hilbert Dipole antennas

2007 IEEE Antennas and Propagation International Symposium, 2007
3D-fractal rectangular Koch dipole and 3D-fractal Hilbert dipole antennas made of wires are introduced. Theses antennas exhibit lower resonant frequencies and small volume occupations. The performance characteristics of the proposed antennas are examined and compared with successive iterations for the same antenna height for the 3D-fractal rectangular ...
