Hierarchical Multi‐Material Architectures With Gradient Design for Dynamic‐Range Flexible Tactile Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Hierarchical multi‐material TPMS lattices are engineered as flexible tactile sensors by combining soft and stiff elastomeric layers with a conformal conductive coating. The bilayer architecture delivers sensitivity at low pressures while maintaining a broad detectable range under large loads, enabling reliable pressure and vibration monitoring for ...

A U‐shaped Microfluidic Platform for Culturing Vascularized Colorectal Cancer Spheroids Reveals Tumor–Endothelial Crosstalk and Invasion‐Associated Remodeling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A closed U‐shaped microfluidic platform symmetrically embeds a single, size‐controlled HT29 colorectal cancer spheroid within a GFP‐HUVEC‐laden fibrin matrix. HT29 spheroids are associated with hyper‐branched endothelial network remodeling, while vascularized co‐culture is accompanied by anisotropic protrusive growth and EMT‐like marker changes in the ...

4D–Printed Photothermally Actuated Soft Microgripper on an Optical Fiber Tip for Biomedical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
In this study, we developed a light–driven soft microgripper by 3D–printing a photo–crosslinkable, temperature–responsive hydrogel with embedded silver particles onto an optical fiber tip. The microgripper actuates via photothermal effects at cell culture temperature and can gently grasp spheroids without minimal damage, offering a compact, actuator ...

3D‐Printed Actuator Powered by Liquid Crystal Elastomer Muscles at the Water–Air Interface

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Soft robots for unstructured environments require responsive, durable actuators. Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) provide large reversible deformations under thermal or optical stimuli. Direct ink writing enables fabrication of LCE actuators integrated with silicone, with mesogen chemistry and oligomers optimized for printable inks.

Self‐Sealing Microneedles Improve Precision and Reduce Reflux in Subretinal Cell Transplantation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Ultrafine 49G microneedles enable subretinal delivery of induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived retinal pigment epithelial cells through a 50 µm outer diameter tip. Compared with conventional 38G microcannulas, these microneedles reduce cell suspension reflux in a rabbit model, highlighting the potential of microinvasive delivery instruments to improve ...

Single‐Step Fabrication of Smart 3D Microstructures Exploiting Naphthopyrans as Photoinitiators and Photochromic Molecules

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Naphthopyran–benzophenone compounds can act simultaneously as photoinitiators and photochromic molecules for two‐photon polymerization. Using a single‐step process, liquid photoresist is encapsulated within polymerized 3D microstructures, preserving reversible UV–vis photochromism after fabrication.
