Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuators for Radially Contracting Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents an Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuator that combines high‐performance electrohydraulic actuation with origami‐inspired folding geometry to achieve constricting radial actuation. This integration yields significant inner lumen constriction, alongside a gripping force capable of holding objects exceeding four times the actuator's ...

Drop‐Shaped Optical Microfiber Enabled Biomechanical Sensor

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel microforce sensor based on a drop‐shaped optical microfiber is presented herein, designed to characterize the biomechanical properties of single cells and microscale living organisms, achieving a force resolution of 24 nN. Leveraging its high sensitivity, facile miniaturization, excellent flexibility, and robust mechanical stability, this ...

Unidirectional Evaporation‐Induced Tunable and Continuous Gradient Composite Structure for Absorption‐Dominant Electromagnetic Interference Shielding

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A continuous conductivity gradient is formed in a porous MXene/melamine foam via directional evaporation, thereby improving impedance matching and enhancing electromagnetic attenuation. The resulting monolithic composite delivers absorption‐dominant EMI shielding with ultralow reflection, offering a simple route toward lightweight EMI shielding ...
