Role of Amorphous Phases in Mixed Conduction of Conjugated Regioblock Copolymers for Organic Electrochemical Synaptic Transistors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Critical roles of amorphous and crystalline phases in polymer‐based mixed ionic‐electronic conductors for organic electrochemical synaptic transistors using conjugated regioregular‐block‐regiorandom copolymers are demonstrated. Amorphous phases contribute to gradual polaron formation and strong ion trapping by bipolarons, leading to improved synaptic ...

Serological Immunoglobulin-Free Light Chain Profile in Myasthenia Gravis Patients

Journal of Immunology Research, 2018
Background. Serological levels of free immunoglobulin light chains (FLCs), produced in excess of heavy chains during synthesis of immunoglobulins by plasma cells, can be considered a direct marker of B cell activity in different systemic inflammatory ...

Stiffening Liquid Crystal Elastomers with Liquid Crystal Inclusions

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Incorporation of low molecular weight liquid crystals (LC) into liquid crystal elastomers (LCE) leads to a significant increase in their stiffness and output work density. Such remarkable stiffening is attributed to nanoscale phase‐separation and the formation of induced‐smectic domains in polydomain and monodomain LC‐LCEs, respectively.

Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in Bionanotechnology: Current Advances and Future Perspectives

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) enables the nanoscale mapping of electrostatic surface potentials. While widely applied in materials science, its use in biological systems remains emerging. This review presents recent advances in KPFM applied to biological samples and provides a critical perspective on current limitations and future directions for

Solvent‐Free Phase Separation of Polystyrene‐block‐poly(2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) Forming Freestanding Photonic Films

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This work presents a scalable, eco‐friendly approach to forming microstructured block copolymer (BCP) films within 15 min through hot pressing. This process enables phase separation even for high‐molecular‐weight BCPs, which are often trapped in spherical structures using time‐consuming solvent processes.

Formation of Q‐Carbon Nanoballs and Nanodiamonds by Pulsed Laser Annealing of Patterned Polymer Structures

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
2D and 3D patterned structures of Q‐carbon nanoballs and nanodiamonds have been created by laser writing of polymers, carbonization, and pulsed laser annealing. Polymeric structures are prepared by using a direct‐laser‐writing (DLW) process involving two‐photon polymerization (2PP). Patterned nanodiamond and Q‐carbon growth over large areas is obtained
