Micro Elastofluidics for Tuneable Droplet Merging

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This technical paper provides a proof of concept of fully flexible and stretchable microfluidic technology for tuneable droplet mixing and merging. The phenomenon is justified through theoretical, numerical and experimental studies. ABSTRACT Droplet microfluidics enables precise handling of discrete fluid volumes at the microscale, with broad ...

Skin‐Like Tri‐Modal Sensors Based on Soft Piezoelectric and Ionic Composites

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Inspired by the multimodal perception of human skin, a soft, skin‐like tri‐modal sensor is presented. The device incorporates an ionically conductive, piezoelectric, elastic composite as its active layer, enabling independent detection of temperature, static strain, and dynamic strain within a single two‐terminal architecture.

Microstructured Electrode‐Piezopolymer Interface for Ultrasound Transducers With Enhanced Flexibility and Acoustic Performance

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Flexible piezopolymer ultrasound transducers are engineered by tailoring the electrode–piezopolymer interface using metallic, flake‐based, and porous graphene electrodes. Laser‐induced graphene's porous structure enables polymer infiltration, strengthening interfacial coupling and enhancing piezoelectric response and acoustic output.

Reverse Intersystem Crossing and Exciton Harvesting: A Pathway to Low Threshold in Multi‐Resonant TADF Electrically Pumped Organic Semiconductor Lasers

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Electrically pumped organic lasing thresholds are lowered by mitigating triplet accumulation through a tailored host‐guest system. Integrating the multi‐resonant TADF emitter DABNA‐2 into a triplet‐scavenging BSBCz host suppresses singlet‐triplet annihilation.

Controlling Ultrafast Photonic‐Plasmonic Coupling in a Hybrid Platform for Biosensing Applications

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A metal–dielectric hybrid composed of gold nanocaps on opal exhibits a broad near‐infrared plasmonic resonance interacting with the photonic bandgap under ultrafast transient conditions. This coupling can be controlled by varying the excitation wavelength and is responsive to bacterial deposition, opening new opportunities for ultrafast biosensing ...
