This article investigates the micromechanics of bamboo epidermis, focusing on how anisotropic silica particle distributions enhance toughness. By integrating experimental imaging, 3D printing, and generative AI, the study develops bio‐inspired particle‐reinforced composites with mechanical properties akin to bamboo.

Sustainable 4D Printed Meta Biocomposite Materials for Programmable Structural Shape Changing
In this work, the architecture of a plant fiber cell wall is simplified to design novel concepts of 4D printed tubular moisture‐driven structural actuators, using the hygromorphic properties of continuous flax fiber (cFF) reinforced materials named meta biocomposites.

3D Hollow MoS2 Architecture Enabled Highly Sensitive SERS Detection
A single‐layer MoS2 self‐assembled 3D nanostructure as a novel metal‐free SERS substrate enables effectively improved SERS performance both experimentally and theoretically. The EF and LOD of the substrate reaches 1.68 × 106 and 10−8 M, respectively. The distinct SERS properties are attributed to the enhanced charge transfer between the substrate and ...
