Field‐Driven Active Colloids as Distributed Micromachines: Bridging Physics, Control, and Function Across Length Scales

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Field‐driven active colloids are framed as distributed micromachines in which externally supplied power, sensing, and control regulate task‐relevant states. By closing the loop between particle behavior, imaging, computation, and electric or magnetic actuation, these systems can progress from programmable motion toward adaptive functional outcomes ...

Catalytic Luminescent Polymer Micromotors With Shape‐Programmed Motion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A Janus micromotor is designed with an SiO2/Ti/ITO/PFN‐Br/Pt heterostructure with an engineered energy level. The ITO conductive interlayer facilitates efficient charge separation, generating interfacial electric fields and ionic gradients for enhanced light‐driven propulsion.

Real‐Time Multicolor Fluorescence Microscopy via Cross‐Channel Acquisition and Deep‐Learning‐Based Inference

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Sequential multicolor fluorescence imaging in dynamic microsystems is constrained by acquisition speed and excitation dose. This study introduces a real‐time framework to reconstruct spectrally separated channels from reduced cross‐channel acquisitions (frames containing mixed spectral contributions).
