Solid‐Like yet Reconfigurable 3D‐Printed Liquid Tubular Wires From Nonconductive Molecules

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work shatters the current reliance of liquid electronics on intrinsically conductive materials by introducing a novel interfacial redox strategy that transforms non‐conductive molecules into high‐performance, 3D liquid tubular wires with solid‐like electrical properties and exceptional reconfigurability. It opens a vast design space for all‐liquid

Miniaturized 3D Magnetic Force Sensor via Laser‐Assisted Folding and Magnetization for Enhanced Robotic Dexterity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
To achieve 3D force sensing in confined spaces such as fingertips, we developed a laser‐assisted folding and magnetization method to fabricate miniature films with precise centripetal magnetization. The resulting compact sensor delivers high force resolution, rapid response, and long‐term stability, significantly enhancing the manipulation capabilities

A Dual‐Channel Synergistic Ultrasensitive Biosensor for Tumor Liquid Biopsy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Liquid biopsy technology, which detects circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in cerebrospinal fluid, plays a crucial role in the early diagnosis and precision treatment of gliomas. However, the intrinsically low abundance and rapid clearance of ctDNA pose substantial challenges for conventional analytical techniques, such as droplet digital PCR and ...
