Patterning the Void: Combining L‐Systems with Archimedean Tessellations as a Perspective for Tissue Engineering Scaffolds

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel multi‐scale scaffold design using L‐fractals arranged in Archimedean tessellations for tissue regeneration. Despite similar porosity, tiles display vastly different tensile responses (1–100 MPa) and deformation modes. In vitro experiments with hMSCs show geometry‐dependent growth and activity. Over 55 000 tile combinations

Toward Robust Ionic Conductivity Determination of Sulfide‐Based Solid Electrolytes for Solid‐State Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The ionic conductivity of a solid electrolyte is just the “tip of the iceberg”. There are many parameters to consider to quantify it reliably in powdered solid electrolyte samples. Abstract All‐solid‐state batteries (ASSBs) are taking the lead as the next‐generation energy storage systems, mainly to the development of new solid electrolytes with high ...

Single‐Step Electrochemical Battery Recycling

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the use of single‐step recovery, an electrochemical process combining electrodeposition and electro‐dissolution, to recover lithiated transition metal oxides (LTMOs). The batteries produced through this recycling method perform similarly to batteries made from pristine materials.
