Hydrogel Confinement Strategies for 3D Cell Culture in Microfluidic Systems

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 7, 6 April 2026.
Hydrogel confinement structures are key to organizing 3D cell cultures in microfluidic devices. This review classifies five structural strategies (micropillar, phaseguide, porous membrane, stepped‐height, and support‐free) and examines their trade‐offs alongside fabrication methods.

Mechanism of Solid Solution‐Driven Texture Induced by Ag Doping in YBCO Superconductor

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 22, 17 April 2026.
Ag‐doped YBCO with a designed concentration gradient is produced by dual‐material co‐extrusion and freeze‐drying. During annealing, Ag+ ions diffuse into Y123, substituting for Cu(1) and inducing c‐axis relaxation. This leads to the formation of [001]‐oriented YBCAO, creating a coherent interface that templates the textured growth of Y123. Consequently,
