In Situ Magnetic Ordering and Microfabrication of Liquid Crystal Networks with Discretized Alignment
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Miniaturizing liquid crystal network actuators typically demands costly laser writing or digital light processing. A low‐cost photolithography platform couples rotating photomasks with a Halbach magnetic array to discretize in‐plane molecular alignment down to 50 µm, producing programmable, light‐responsive grippers, checkerboards, and origami‐inspired

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work reveals the UV‐curing‐induced monomer‐rich domain, oligomer‐rich domain, and entangled oligomer domain. The cured submicron films in stressed state induce interlayer nano‐wrinkle structures during the deposition of the second layer. Stress‐free cured films in relaxed state form non‐diffusive, diffusive and semi‐diffusive interlayer ...

Nano-to-micro self-assembly using shear flow devices
, 2004 This work aims at developing a new technique to precisely assemble nano-materials into micro- or even meso-scale devices. For example, our long-term goal is to use massively architected motor-molecules to build muscle-like actuators in which these ...

Making the Case for Organ‐on‐Chip Platforms in Long‐Acting Therapeutics Development
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.LATs release drug from a tissue‐resident depot over weeks to months, improving adherence, but their development is hampered by preclinical models that cannot reproduce the coupled tissue processes, sustained release, local microenvironment change, interstitial transport, immune and foreign‐body responses, and clearance that govern depot performance in ...
