3D Polymeric Nanonetworks: From Self‐Assembly to Advanced Fabrication

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review provides the first systematic cross‐method comparison of fabrication techniques for 3D polymeric nanonetworks. It evaluates five key strategies—block copolymer self‐assembly, hyper‐crosslinking, template‐assisted methods, 3D printing, and nanolithography—across critical metrics including resolution, throughput, scalability, and material ...

CONCERT: A Modular Reconfigurable Robot for Construction

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents CONCERT, a fully reconfigurable modular collaborative robot (cobot) for multiple on‐site operations in a construction site. CONCERT has been designed to support human activities in construction sites by leveraging two main characteristics: high‐power density motors and modularity. In this way, the robot is able to perform a

Subterranean Mine Inspection Using the Prometheus Re‐Configurable Drone

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper describes the design, development, and real‐world testing of an autonomous drone for subterranean exploration, known as “Prometheus.” Driven by requirements from industry that the drone be able to be deployed through areas of restricted access, Prometheus was designed to be directly deployed through a 150 mm aperture.

Unlocking the potential of stimuli‐responsive liquid crystal polymer bio‐interfaces for adaptive cell modulation

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
This Perspective discusses the potential of stimuli‐responsive liquid crystal polymer bio‐interfaces in modulating cell behavior as next generation dynamic artificial scaffolds. Unlike current artificial biomaterials that have static properties, LCPs offer fast, reversible, and spatially programmable deformation that reflects the dynamic properties of ...

NiPS3/GaN photodetector with bias‐selected photoresponse mode for reconfigurable optoelectronic logic and neuromorphic vision

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a NiPS3/GaN photodetector with a broadband response from ultraviolet to visible light. Its performance, enabled by dynamically tuning the competition between photothermoelectric, photovoltaic, and photoconductive effects, facilitates applications in imaging, optoelectronic synapses, and reconfigurable logic gates.
