Bioengineered Interfaces for Peripheral Nerve Sensory Restoration
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Half of amputees abandon their prosthetics for lack of feeling. This review charts the full path from peripheral nerve injury to restored sensation, through surgical, regenerative, noninvasive, and implanted approaches, and shows how injury type and interface material properties determine which strategy can deliver naturalistic feedback, and why ...

Low‐Temperature Gold Deposition Improves CdTe Back Contacts
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Cd(Se,Te) samples are cooled during the evaporation of Au back contacts to thermally quench CdTe degradation. Reduced temperature during Au evaporation boosts PV efficiency, open‐circuit voltage, and fill factor. XPS associates these improvements with less chemical perturbation of the CdTe surface during metallization.

Additively Manufactured Porous Ceramics as Tunable Dielectrics for Passive Temperature Sensing
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Porous ceramic lattices, 3D‐printed from a multicomponent oxide ink, are integrated with LC resonators for passive wireless temperature sensing. By tuning porosity, the dielectric properties and RF response are engineered to produce distinct resonant frequency shifts with temperature. The results establish a structure‐driven approach to customizing the

Fabrication of Fibers With Complex Features Using Thermal Drawing of 3D‐Printed Preforms
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.3D printing enables rapid fabrication of macroscale polymer preforms with complex geometries. Thermal drawing then scales these structures into long fibers while preserving micron‐scale cross‐sectional features. This workflow provides a fast, low‐cost route to functional fibers with tailored geometries and material combinations for catheter, robotic ...
