Photon Avalanching Nanoparticles: The Next Generation of Upconverting Nanomaterials?

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This Perspective outlines the mechanistic foundations that enable photon‐avalanche (PA) behavior in lanthanide nanomaterials and contrasts them with emerging application spaces and forward‐looking design strategies. By bridging threshold engineering, energy‐transfer dynamics, and materials engineering, we provide a coherent roadmap for advancing the ...

Light‐Actuated Fiber‐Climbing Inchworm Robot Toward Endoluminal Navigation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A kirigami‐inspired soft inchworm robot harnesses optical energy from a customized side‐emitting optical fiber, guaranteeing its propulsion along the fiber body. The wavelength‐selective responsiveness of dye‐functionalized liquid crystal elastomers and the application of temporal illumination patterns enable sequential control of robot components. The

Extremal graphs without 4-cycles

Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 2013
We prove an upper bound for the number of edges a C4-free graph on q^2 + q vertices can contain for q even. This upper bound is achieved whenever there is an orthogonal polarity graph of a plane of even order q.

Aqueous Two‐Phase Bioinks for Discrete Packing and Compartmentalization of 3D Bioprinted Cells

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Aqueous two‐phase systems (ATPS) enable the formation of biomimetic interfaces crucial for tissue engineering. However, clinical translation remains limited by the challenge of precisely controlling cellular compartmentalization. Here, we developed ATPS biomaterial inks for 3D bioprinting allowing tuneable droplet formation via NaCl modulation.

On The Graphs and Their Complements with Prescribed Circumference

Jurnal Ilmu Dasar, 2012
Let Gt(n) be the class of connected graphs on n vertices having the longest cycle of length t and let G ∈ Gt(n). Woodall (1976) determined the maximum number of edges of G.

Independence number in graphs and its upper bounds [PDF]

Journal of Mahani Mathematical Research
‎In this paper, we use the double counting method to find some upper bounds for the independence number of a simple graph in terms of its order, size and  maximum degree.   Moreover,  we determine extremal graphs attaining equality in upper bounds.

Dynamic Modulation of the Microenvironment Promotes Functional Maturation of Engineered Tissues

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered tissues lack the dynamic microenvironment of native tissues. A biocompatible, diffusible small molecule to dynamically modulate tissue microenvironments during maturation is used. Timing‐dependent modulation yields distinct outcomes, producing thicker, more native‐like blood vessels, stronger and more mature cardiac tissues, and optimized ...

Extremal graph problems with symmetrical extremal graphs. Additional chromatic conditions

Discrete Mathematics, 1974
AbstractThe main result of this paper is that for a special, but rather wide class of “sample graphs”, the extremal graphs, i.e. the graphs of n vertices without subgraphs isomorphic to the sample graph and having maximum number of edges under this condition, have very simple and symmetric structure.

Extremal Graphs for Intersecting Triangles

Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 1995
A \(k\)-fan is a graph with \(2k+ 1\) vertices consisting of \(k\) 3-cycles having one vertex in common. The authors show that if \(n\geq 50k^2\) and the graph \(G_n\) has more than \([n^2/4]+ k^2- ck\) edges, where \(c\) equals 1 or 3/2 according as \(k\) is odd or even, then \(G_n\) contains a \(k\)-fan; furthermore, the bound for the number of edges

Smart Face Masks as Wearable Respiratory Sensors: A Review of Sensor Technologies, Materials, and Future Directions

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent advances in smart face masks that actively monitor breathing. By integrating humidity, gas, temperature, pressure, strain, and triboelectric sensors, these masks track key respiratory parameters in real time. The article summarizes sensor mechanisms, compares performance across studies, and discusses challenges and future ...
