Lightweight and High‐Performance Ankle Braces Enabled by 3D Printed Metamaterial Liquid Crystal Polymer

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A flexible, lightweight ankle brace made from 3D‐printed liquid crystal polymer metamaterials offers targeted support without restricting movement. Programmable stiffness provides protection during risky motions. Biomechanical tests suggest performance comparable to commercial braces with reduced bulk, highlighting potential for broader orthotic ...

Event‐Driven Elongation Monitor for Soft Devices Using a Deformation‐Activated Piezoconductive Switch

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A stretchable, event‐driven strain sensor with low energy consumption is developed using positive piezoconductive composites. These composites remain insulative when relaxed, while they become conductive when stretched. Their electrical characteristics are modifiable by the nickel's weight ratio and cross‐sectional geometry. Strain‐induced switching is

Nanomodification of Polyethylene via Focused Electron Beam Irradiation: Controlled Crazing and Application to Crack Arresting

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Focused electron beam (FEB) irradiation precisely modifies polyethylene (PE) at the nanoscale, resulting in controlled crazing characterized by microvoids and microfibrils. Additionally, the technique can be applied for crack arrest under tensile stress.

A New Class of Diarylethene Compounds that Exhibit Turn‐On Emission: From Aggregation‐Induced Emission to Anti‐Kasha Emission

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A new class of diarylethene compounds containing backbone phosphine oxide groups are reported, exhibiting turn‐on aggregation‐induced emission. Side chain functionalization enabled emission color tunability and turn‐on anti‐Kasha emission. Abstract Diarylethenes (DAE) are a well‐known class of photochromic compounds with diverse applications ranging ...
