Stimuli-responsive assembly of iron oxide nanoparticles into magnetic flexible filaments [PDF]
The combination of multiple functionalities in a single material is an appealing strategy for the de-velopment of smart materials with unique features. In this work, we present the preparation of thermoresponsive magnetic nanoparticles and their one-dimensional assembly into transient micro-filaments.

Structured light projection using image guide fibers for in situ photo-biofabrication
Light‐based biofabrication is typically performed with single wavelength light sources and within benchtop devices. This work demonstrates FaSt‐Light (Fiber‐assisted Structured Light) as a new approach to achieve multiwavelength image projection using flexible image guide fibers, which enables a variety of applications for in situ biofabrication ...

Flow-Induced Buckling of Elastic Microfilaments with Non-Uniform Bending Stiffness [PDF]
Buckling plays a critical role in the transport and dynamics of elastic microfilaments in Stokesian fluids. However, previous work has only considered filaments with homogeneous structural properties. Filament backbone stiffness can be non-uniform in many biological systems like microtubules, where the association and disassociation of proteins can ...

MEMS-Based Planar Incandescent Microfilaments With Low Voltage Operation
In this article, we report the design and fabrication for planar-type incandescent microfilaments on the silicon on insulator (SOI) wafer. The micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) process with XeF2 etching is used to construct the suspension structure
