Targeted Local Delivery via Fiber‐Embedded Flexible Microchannels Integrated with Film‐Based Implantable Probes

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
In this study, a fiber‐embedded drug delivery channel for implantable microprobes, demonstrating the first functional drug delivery system using flexible LCP‐based probes, is developed. The design incorporates fibers for site‐selective drug delivery and electrical functions. The utilization of monolithic thermal bonding simplifies fabrication.

Flow Analysis in Pathological Microvascular Models by Ultrasound Localization Microscopy

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study presents a new platform combining ultrasound localization microscopy with biomimetic gelatin phantoms to analyze flow dynamics in small vessels with narrowing or obstructions. Using microbubble tracking, the method enables high‐resolution velocity mapping in 100–500 µm channels, revealing flow changes in pathological microvascular conditions

Investigation of Exothermic Behaviors of Energetic Particles in Microfluidics Channels

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Scheme and representative frames of delivery, ignition, and combustion process of core@shell Al@CuO energetic material in a microchannel. The electrical discharge occurred at the throat of microchannel leads to the combustion of the energetic reaction, causing the formation of high‐momentum butterfly‐shaped jet at the throat.

Hygromnemics: Programmable Material Memory Matter Actuators via Wet Pre‐Constraining

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Humidity‐based pre‐constraining creates hygromnemics‐shape memory matter. From identical biocomposites actuation in dry and wet states is obtained via hygromnemic and hygromorphic actuation, respectively. Hygromnemic actuators present long‐ and short‐term shape memory abilities.
