Quasi‐Random Nanostructured Substrates for Enhancing Light Outcoupling in OLEDs

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Organic light–emitting diodes (OLEDs) suffer from low light outcoupling efficiency, with much of the generated light trapped within the device. To address this issue, we present a scalable, maskless, polymer‐free strategy for fabricating quasi‐random external nanowire (ENW) and internal nanocorrugation (INC) structures directly on glass ...

Piezoresistivity Enhancement by Graphite Flake Alignment in Thin Composite Films for Dielectric Elastomer Switches

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article presents dielectric elastomer switch (DES) materials, based on composite thin films. Alignment of graphite flakes due to their physical confinement within the thin films lead to much stronger piezoresistive responses than bulk composites, while their durability exceeds that of conventional liquid‐based DES materials.

Biodegradable Carbonate Nanogels Loaded with Anti MFAP‐5 siRNA for Anti‐stromal Therapy of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polycarbonate nanogels enable lipid‐free delivery of anti‐MFAP‐5 siRNA into cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAF) in hepatocellular carcinoma. In a cirrhotic murine model, this approach silences MFAP‐5, reduces fibroblast activation, and suppresses tumor growth by inhibiting NOTCH/Hes1‐driven angiogenesis. CAF‐targeted MFAP‐5 RNAi and conserved signaling

Determination of optimum printing direction of the polycarbonate parts produced by additive manufacturing

Materials Research Express
In this study, the effect of printing direction on the tensile properties of polycarbonate (PC) parts produced using a 3D printer was investigated. A total of 9 samples were produced with printing directions of 0°, 45° and 90° with infill density of 20%.

A Biomarker‐Driven Ovary–Endometrium Organ‐on‐a‐Chip Mimicking 3D Multicellular Complexity and Menstrual Cyclicity for Predicting Reproductive Toxicity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We present a dual‐organ, biomarker‐integrated ovaryendometrium organ‐on‐a‐chip that recapitulates 3D tissue complexity, menstrual cycle dynamics, and hormonal crosstalk. This platform enables real‐time, cell‐typespecific fluorescent readouts of reproductive toxicity using ANGPTL4 and SERPINB2 as early‐response reporters.
