Architectural Tuning of Bouligand Electrospun Laminates Enables Coupled Mechanical Robustness and Electromechanical Sensing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioinspired Bouligand architectures are translated into biodegradable polymer laminates with integrated sensing, revealing how structural design governs multifunctional performance. A 20° interlayer rotation optimizes strength, flexibility, and electromechanical response, while embedded nanotube networks enable real‐time damage detection and wearable ...

Poisson's Ratio‐Driven Control of Myogenic Differentiation and Maturation in Auxetic Metamaterials under Dynamic Mechanical Stimulation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study explored how innovative “auxetic” scaffolds, which expand when stretched, influence skeletal muscle development. Researchers cultured muscle cells on different scaffold designs and applied repeated stretching over 10 days. They found that scaffold geometry affected muscle cell differentiation and fiber formation.

Hydrogel‐Based Method for High‐Resolution Measurements of Contact Mechanics in Rapid Biological Adhesives: A Case Study in Cuttlefish Tentacle Strikes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cuttlefish and squid can catch their prey within milliseconds using specialized tentacles and suckers. The physics of how the suckers can attach so quickly has remained a mystery given the technical challenges of studying them in vivo. In this publication, we develop a hydrogel that retains imprints of the suckers in order to estimate the forces they ...

Biomimetic Hybrid‐Membrane Nanoreactor for Deep‐Seated Photodynamic Immunotherapy of Hepatocellular Carcinoma via Dual Catalysis‐Enhanced ROS Amplification and cGAS‐STING Activation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
UCNP@MnOx‐Hyp@HRM (UMHM) enables tumor targeting and accumulation. Under 808 nm NIR irradiation, PDT/CDT synergistically triggers ICD and cGAS–STING immunity for deep hepatocellular carcinoma therapy. ABSTRACT Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is promising against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

A Particle‐Level Dual‐Polymer Interphase for Coupled Interfacial and Contact Stabilization of Zinc Metal Powder Anodes in Aqueous Zinc‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A particle‐level dual‐polymer interphase of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) stabilizes zinc metal powder anodes by coupling CMC‐mediated water regulation with PAA‐derived Zn2+ affinity. This synergy suppresses hydrogen evolution, corrosion, and byproduct accumulation while preserving electrode‐level electrical contact ...

Voltage Gated Ion Entry Into Two‐dimensional Angstrom‐Scale Channels

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We demonstrate voltage‐gated ion transport through artificial Å‐scale slit channels (∼4 Å high) formed by van der Waals assembly of 2D materials. At low electric fields, ions are excluded while water permeates. Above a threshold voltage, nonlinear hysteretic conduction emerges, driven by ion dehydration and concentration‐dependent barriers, mimicking ...
