Surface‐host dialogue at the implant interface governs biological fate and osseointegration. Surface physicochemical properties of titanium (Ti) dental implants, including microgrooves, nanopatterns, nanotopography, roughness, and wettability, modulate the initial adsorption of proteins and the formation of a dynamic biointerface.

FPGA-Based Control System of an Ultrasonic Phased Array
One of the main features of ultrasonic phased arrays is the ability to create an ultrasonic focused beam by applying time-delayed signals to each one of the elements of the array. If the focused beam can sweep a certain area it is possible to obtain a B-scan image. This process is called beamforming.

Intelligent Acousto‐Electrical Metamaterials (IAM) for Sound Source Detection
Our proposed metamaterial concept enables sound source detection using a single material, in contrast to conventional arrays that require dozens or even hundreds of transducers. We show that the coupled acoustic–vibrational–electrical responses in piezoelectric metamaterials give rise to topology‐governed charge transport, producing distinct voltage ...
