Micro‐Strain Responsive Near‐Infrared Mechanoluminescence for Potential Nondestructive Artificial Joint Stress Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In situ and real‐time stress sensing during total knee replacement procedure is expected to be realized based on near‐infrared mechanoluminescent phosphor of Sr3Sn1.98Sb0.02O6.99, which has the lowest strain sensitivity as low as 50 µst. Abstract Recently, joint replacement surgery is facing significant challenges of patient dissatisfaction and the ...

Machine Learning‐Enhanced Modular Ionic Skin for Broad‐Spectrum Multimodal Discriminability in Bidirectional Human–Robot Interaction

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A machine learning‐enhanced modular ionic skin with broad‐spectrum multimodal sensing is realized through a synergistic material–algorithm optimization strategy. This strategy involves hard‐segment‐modulated 1D/2D/3D‐ionic conductors and a data‐driven decoupling model trained on a curated multi‐stimuli dataset.

Responsive Polyelectrolyte Brushes in Applications: Functions, Stimuli, and Design Considerations

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
With advances in the synthesis of polyelectrolyte brushes, these coatings of surface‐grafted chains find uses in an increasing number of applications. This review summarizes three core aspects of these brushes: how they introduce functionality to surfaces; how external stimuli influence their properties; and what practical considerations should be ...

Autonomous Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.
