Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.

Defined Matrices Reveal Epithelial‐ and Mesenchymal‐Specific Responses to Stiffness and Adhesion in Human iPSC‐Derived Intestinal Organoids

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Defined PEG hydrogels enable human iPSC‐derived intestinal organoid culture without Matrigel. PEG‐ and Matrigel‐cultured organoids both support duodenal‐like epithelial identity, but direct comparison reveals subtle epithelial differentiation‐marker shifts and stronger mesenchymal ECM‐remodeling/integrin programs in PEG.

Recycled Plastic Fibers for Minimizing Plastic Shrinkage Cracking of Cement Based Mortar

, 2014
The development of new construction materials using recycled plastic is important to both the construction and the plastic recycling industries. Manufacturing of fibers from industrial or post-consumer plastic waste is an attractive approach with such benefits as concrete performance enhancement, and reduced needs for land filling.

Reduced Graphene Oxide Enhances the Vascular Organization and Contractile Performance of Fibrin‐Gelatin‐Based Engineered Cardiac Tissue

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Fibrin–gelatin hydrogels functionalized with reduced graphene oxide create a mechanically stable and bioactive 3D environment for engineered cardiac tissue. The composite matrix promotes endothelial lumen formation, enhances sarcomeric protein expression, and increases contractile performance of embedded cardiomyocytes.

Development of a Solid‐Liquid Hybrid Electrolyte Composed of LiTa2PO8 and [C2mim][FSA]–Li[FSA] Ionic Liquid for Rechargeable Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
LiTa2PO8 (LTPO) suffers from high interfacial resistance when paired with Li metal due to poor solid‐solid contact. Coating LTPO with an ionic liquid (IL) markedly improves interfacial stability, maintaining favorable resistance up to 2000 cycles. However, contact between IL‐coated LTPO and Li metal induces discoloration of LTPO, which is attributed to

Gap‐Filling Stencil Lithography for Precise and High Yield Patterning of Two‐Dimensional Materials

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Gap‐filling lithography (GSL) for simple and precise patterning for two‐dimensional materials (2DMs) is reported. A 100% pattern yield was successfully achieved across large‐area pattern arrays by introducing a PMMA gap‐filling layer. This GSL efficiently overcomes issues that arise when applying conventional lithography to 2DM. This unique lithography
