Light‐Induced Field‐Tunneling Synapses in Solution‐Processed Van Der Waals Heterostructures for Scalable, Retina‐Inspired Optical Sensing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A scalable, solution‐processed WSe2/ZrO2‐x van der Waals heterostructure realizes a light‐induced field‐tunneling synapse (LIFTS) that activates exclusively under bright illumination, emulating the photopic adaptation of the human retina at the device level.

Chitin‐Derived Carbon‐Metal Functional Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Functional carbon materials are synthesized from combination of biopolymer (chitin) and iron precursors. The resultant material exhibits superior surface area and adsorptive properties compared to carbon materials synthesized directly from pure chitin.

A PDMS Coating-Based Balloon-Shaped Fiber Optic Respiratory Monitoring Sensor

Sensors
A respiratory monitoring sensor based on a balloon-shaped optical fiber is proposed. The sensor consists of a single-mode fiber (SMF) coated with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) bent into a balloon shape to form a fiber optic Mach–Zehnder interferometer. The

Programmable Soft Actuator with Multi‐Responsiveness Based on Conductive MOF‐Liquid Crystal Polymer Composite

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A sequential dual‐alignment strategy independently programs the orientation of conductive metal‐organic framework (c‐MOF) microrods and liquid crystals within a composite film. This approach creates an asymmetric bilayer structure that enables precise, multi‐responsive actuation.

Melanin's Role in Balancing Mechanical Strength and Reproductive Output in Environmentally Stressed Fungal Spores

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Melanin content directly controls fungal spore mechanical properties, with pigmented spores achieving rupture forces two orders of magnitude higher than hyaline spores. Environmental stress drives this quantity‐quality tradeoff; stressed species invest energy in melanin‐reinforced, mechanically superior thick‐walled, super‐hydrophobic spores, while ...

Multiplexed Fiber-Optic Interferometric System With Down-Lead Insensitive Fiber-Optic Probes

, 1989
A Fiber-Optic Interferometric Sensor with multiplexing capability and noise free behaviour of the leading fiber is presented. The FOIS is based on a differential scheme, where both the reference and the sensing beam are guided by the same polarization ...

Laboratory Tests Using Distributed Fiber Optical Sensors for Strain Monitoring

Sensors
Using fiber optics as a tool for different kinds of geotechnical monitoring can be highly attractive and cost-effective when compared to conventional instruments, such as piezometers and inclinometers, among others. A single fiber optic cable may cover a

Upcycling Keratin‐Based Textile Waste Into High‐Performance Hybrid Fibers Via Tuning the Interfacial Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Keratin recovered from animal‐hair textile waste is fractionated and blended with cellulose to produce continuously spun hybrid fibers. Selecting the high‐molecular‐weight keratin fraction enables 30 wt.% keratin incorporation while maintaining high strength in dry and wet states.
