ABSTRACT Electronic waste has emerged as a major environmental challenge, driven by the massive consumption and a limited lifetime of modern electronic devices, stimulating the development of sustainable electronics. Here, an all‐biomaterial gelatin‐choline‐citric acid ([Ch][CA]) ionogel is developed as an active binder to realize self‐sintered ...

Ironless magnetically levitated planar actuator [PDF]
This paper describes a magnetically levitated planar actuator with moving magnets. This ironless actuator has a stationary coil array above which a translator with a permanent-magnet array is levitated and propelled in the xy plane. During the movements in the xy plane, the set of active coils is switched, as a result of which the stroke in the xy ...

We use scanning nitrogen vacancy magnetometry to directly image the weak in‐plane magnetic moments in mixed phase BiFeO3 at the nanoscale and quantify the local magnetic moments to be 18.8±2.0 μB/nm2 in the rhombohedral‐like phase and 1.5±0.6 μB/nm2 in the well‐known non‐magnetic tetragonal‐like phase.

Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are a class of smart materials that can be programmed to recover from temporary shape to permanent shape by applying external stimuli (temperature, magnetic field, light, electric field, and moisture, etc.).

Chiral Phase Change Nanomaterials
This work demonstrates reversible, non‐volatile phase transitions in chiral Ge2${\rm Ge}_2$Sb2${\rm Sb}_2$Te5${\rm Te}_5$ (GST) nanohelices for high‐speed optical modulation of chirality and dynamic control of the state of polarization (SOP). The chiral nanostructures are fabricated using a highly directional, wafer‐scale physical vapor deposition ...

Magnetic Actuation of Smooth Muscle Cells Loaded with Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles [PDF]
Faecal incontinence (FI) is a debilitating disorder that affects a significant portion of the population. The research included in this thesis aimed to test the hypothesis that magnetic actuating of smooth muscle cells loaded with superparamagnetic iron ...

Magnetic Actuation Methods in Bio/Soft Robotics [PDF]
In recent years, magnetism has gained an enormous amount of interest among researchers for actuating different sizes and types of bio/soft robots, which can be via an electromagnetic‐coil system, or a system of moving permanent magnets.

Characterization of Ferrofluid-based Stimuli-responsive Elastomers
Stimuli-responsive materials undergo physicochemical, and/or structural changes when a specific actuation is applied. They are heterogeneous composites, consisting of a non-responsive matrix where functionality is provided by the filler.
