Hierarchical Multi‐Material Architectures With Gradient Design for Dynamic‐Range Flexible Tactile Sensing

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Hierarchical multi‐material TPMS lattices are engineered as flexible tactile sensors by combining soft and stiff elastomeric layers with a conformal conductive coating. The bilayer architecture delivers sensitivity at low pressures while maintaining a broad detectable range under large loads, enabling reliable pressure and vibration monitoring for ...

Microfluidic Droplet Plate Preserving Single Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell‐Derived Cardiomyocytes Morphology and Function

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We introduce a novel method combining microfluidics, optogenetics, and human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology to encapsulate single iPSC‐derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC‐CMs) in an optimal environment for functional characterization. This method enables direct genotype‐phenotype correlation for genetic studies and high‐throughput screening ...

TiO2 as Trap Sensitizer for Enhanced Persistent Luminescence in ZnGa2O4:Cr3+ Nanoparticles

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Interfacial engineering enables non‐optical charging enhancement in persistent phosphors. By coupling ZGO:Cr nanoparticles with TiO2 through a porous SiO2 interlayer, photogenerated carriers are efficiently transferred and stored in additional trapping states.

Spectral Splitting Using Luminescent Solar Concentrator Lightguides

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Attaching selective reflectors to the edges of a luminescent solar concentrator containing two different fluorescent dyes makes it possible to parse the incident white light spectrum into two separate edge emission wavelengths. Separation may be enhanced by aligning the dichroic dyes on the lightguide surface.
