Electrically Tunable Friction: From Sticky to Slippery with Ionic Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates electrically tunable friction “from sticky to slippery” using ionic hydrogels, achieving reversible more‐than‐fifty‐fold modulation without liquid lubricants. An electric field extracts a salt‐rich interfacial layer that dramatically reduces friction.

Mistletoe‐ and Mussel‐Inspired Fabrication of Hierarchically Structured Protein‐Cellulose Scaffolds From Biomolecular Condensates

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Merging materials processing tricks inspired by mussel and mistletoe fiber fabrication, solutions of cationic mussel byssus proteins were mixed with modified anionic nanocrystalline cellulose, producing distinctive core‐shell condensates. Simple processing of condensate suspensions using freeze‐drying produced hierarchically structured porous protein ...

Multi‐scale Engineered Vasculature and Hierarchical Porosity via Volumetric Bioprinting‐Guided Photopolymerization‐Induced Phase Separation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Vascularization in bioprinted hydrogels is limited by nanoscale porosity in hydrogel bionks. Volumetric bioprinting of gelatin–norbornene phase‐separating hydrogels permits to create centimeter‐scale constructs featuring interconnected multi‐scale porosity. Light dose gradients result in spatially controlled pore dimensions. Capillary‐scale vessels are

Scalable and Multifunctional PAN‐MXene Composite Fibers for Thermal Management, Photothermal Conversion, Energy Harvesting, and Sensing for Wearable Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Electrospun PAN‐MXene nanofibers and yarns integrate enhanced thermal conductivity, photothermal conversion, and triboelectric energy harvesting within a flexible architecture. Interconnected MXene networks promote efficient phonon transport, while their surface chemistry strengthens tribo‐negative behavior, enabling a high power density of 432.7 mW m ...

On‐Surface Synthesis of Bismuth Monolayers through Ice‐Confined Redox Reactions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We report an ice‐confined growth strategy for the synthesis of atomically thin 2D bismuth and related 2D metals. This approach involves rapid freezing of a BiCl3 aqueous solution on an aluminum foil using liquid nitrogen, which triggers interfacial redox reactions between the ice and the aluminum surface.

Polystyrene/TiO2 Composite Thin Films by Powder Aerosol Deposition: Film Morphology Control Through Powder Processing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
It's all in the mix! By employing different homogenization strategies for preparing polystyrene/TiO2 polymer‐ceramic composite (PCC) powders, we tune the morphology of PCC films obtained by powder aerosol deposition, ranging from segregated multilayer‐like to finely blended composites.

Cholesterol‐DNA Origami Nanostructures for Synthetic Lipid Rafts Induce Early T Cell Activation Signals

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Here, we present a nanotechnology approach to construct synthetic lipid rafts on the live T cell membrane, leveraging a versatile DNA origami‐enabled platform named as the “cholesterol nano‐patch” (CNP). Our investigation highlights the effectiveness of DNA nanotechnology in exploring the impact of nanoscale arrangement of cholesterols on the ...

Continental ice sheets

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1988
Most of the contributions in the session Continental Ice Sheets at the AGU Spring Meeting in May in Baltimore dealt with issues relating to the stability of the ice sheets in the face of ongoing or projected future changes. One approach involves monitoring the ice sheet by repeated satellite imagery (Richie Williams and Jane Ferrigno, U.S.
