Halogen‐Bonded Liquid Crystal Elastomers as Initiator‐Free Photochemical Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The combination of dynamic disulfide bonds and halogen bonds in chain‐extended liquid crystal elastomers enables the fabrication of photochemical actuators without the need for a photoinitiator, advancing the design of multimodal soft actuators that can be reprogrammed and reprocessed through supramolecular functionalization.

High‐Performance Phototransistor Based on a 2D Polybenzimidazole Polymer

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A crystalline 2D polybenzimidazole polymer (2DPBI), incorporating a porphyrin‐based π‐system linked via 1,3‐diazole units, is synthesized on the water surface over large areas. The 2DPBI thin‐film exhibits high charge carrier mobility (≈240 cm2 V−1 s−1, measured by terahertz spectroscopy), strong photoresponse, and band‐like transport, enabling ...

Ferrofluid‐Based Bioink for 3D Printed Skeletal Muscle Tissues with Enhanced Force and Magnetic Response

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The integration of ferrofluid consisting of citrated iron oxide nanoparticles into muscle cell‐laden ink to obtain magnetic‐responsive muscle tissue (i.e., ferromuscle) allows not only an easy printability process to integrate magnetic components in 3D printed tissues, but also impacts positively in terms of tissue differentiation and increased force ...

Leveraging Design of Experiments to Unravel the Amplification Mechanism of Single‐Molecule Wide‐Field Biosensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Detecting single molecules on large interfaces is challenging due to minimal perturbations on the sensing surface. Some biological systems achieve this feat using amplification mechanisms, but their molecular foundations remain unclear. To investigate, a Design of Experiments (DoE) approach examines how pH and ionic strength in conditioning solutions ...
