Mapping of Physiological Signals From Wireless Battery‐Free Implants With Plane‐Wave Ultrasound Imaging

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 9, 6 May 2026.
Combined approach of electromagnetic (Power) and ultrasound (data harvesting) waves is proposed to address the miniaturized ultrasonic implants. Electromagnetic waves trigger the piezoelectric element to generate the acoustic pulse which is modulated by the variations in the sensor's impedance.

Ultrasound Modulation of Visual Circuits in Mice Independent of Auditory Confound

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
In this study, Qiu et al. found that low‐intensity ultrasound can directly activate sparse ultrasound‐sensitive neurons (UNs) in the primary visual cortex (V1) of deafened mice. The proportion of these sparse UNs is pressure‐dependent. Furthermore, ultrasound modulates visual circuitry with distinct excitatory and inhibitory effects.

Magnetoelectric effect of PZT/Ni50.5Mn27.9Ga21.6/PZT laminate composite: design and measurement

Revista Mexicana de Física
In this work we designed an experimental setup based on a double coil and an electromagnet to measure the magnetoelectric effect of a PZT/Ni50.5Mn27.9Ga21.6/PZT laminate composite, made of a bulk single crystal of Ni50.5Mn27.9Ga21.6 shape memory alloy. The shape memory alloy showed a martensitic transformation at 298 K, a Curie temperature at 368 K and
