Electroadhesion Suction Cups

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Electroadhesion (EA) Suction Cups are electrically operated soft grippers that can pick up a wide range of objects from the top. A soft membrane, driven by electrostatic forces, conforms to surfaces, creating a passive vacuum when lifted. EA suction cups eliminate bulky vacuum systems, offering a compact, efficient, and portable alternative for ...

Traceless Photopolymerization with Non‐Pulsed Red Light Enables 3D‐Printable Cell‐Laden Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The paper presents a red‐light‐induced polymerization process, initiated by the FDA‐approved dye methylene blue and the cytocompatible co‐initiator triethanolamine, for fabricating hydrogels. This photopolymerization process is oxygen‐tolerant, cytocompatible, and, most importantly, leaves no color traces, resulting in completely transparent scaffolds.
