Reconfigurable Magnetic Soft Microrobot for Acoustically Triggered Targeted Bacterial Sterilization
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Reconfigurable magnetic soft microrobots integrate in situ‐grown piezoelectric zinc oxide nanorods that produce reactive oxygen species upon acoustic excitation. Combining magnetically guided transport with thermally induced planar reconfiguration, the microrobots achieve targeted delivery and enhanced bacterial sterilization through efficient on ...

Improving guidewire-mediated steerability of a magnetically actuated flexible microrobot
Micro and Nano Systems Letters, 2018 Here, we develop a flexible microrobot enhancing the steerability of a conventional guidewire. To improve steerability, a microrobot is attached to the tip of the guidewire and guided using an external magnetic field generated by an electromagnetic coil ...

Soft Lithography Replica Molding of Critically Coupled Polymer Microring Resonators [PDF]
IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 2004 We use soft lithography replica molding to fabricate unclad polystyrene (PS) and clad SU-8 microring resonator filters. The PS resonator has an intrinsic quality factor of 1.0/spl times/10/sup 4/ at /spl lambda/=1.55 /spl mu/m, while that of the SU-8 resonator is 7100.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.DNA strands are employed both as dynamic linkers and nanoscale templates for the integration of Ag2S nanoparticles on MoS2, which in turn imparted photothermal responsiveness; this feature permits the selective cargo (fluorophore, quantum dots or an enzyme) release from the MoS2 surface in response to local heat induced by light irradiation.

From Waste to Value: Conversion of Calcium Sulfate to Vaterite via Carbon Capture and Storage
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a new concept for carbon management that relies on the carbonation of industrial gypsum waste and yields phase‐pure vaterite at ambient conditions without any additives. The obtained vaterite is further shown to be a reactive material that develops compressive strength in aqueous suspensions like conventional cements.

Baccio Bandinelli, Carlo V e una nuova ipotesi sulla Venere bronzea del Prado
Boletín del Museo del Prado, 2012 The Venus in the Prado is one of the most mysterious large bronzes of the Renaissance: its authorship has not been determined, and the early history of its model, the marble Belvedere Venus (today in Florence, Uɷ zi) is not clear.

Interconnected Porous Hydrogels with Tunable Anisotropy Through Aqueous Emulsion Bioprinting
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A 3D bioprintable microporous bioink is developed using an aqueous two‐phase system (ATPS) composed of extracellular matrix (ECM) mimetic biopolymers. The ATPS bioink enables the fabrication of interconnected porous architectures with up to 70% porosity, supporting long‐term cell viability and 3D cell alignment, enabling a simultaneous generation of ...

High-Resolution Structure-from-Motion for Quantitative Measurement of Leading-Edge Roughness
Energies, 2020 Over time, erosion of the leading edge of wind turbine blades increases the leading-edge roughness (LER). This may reduce the aerodynamic performance of the blade and hence the annual energy production of the wind turbine.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Microscale hydrogels (microgels) feature improved mass transport characteristics supportive of fast actuation and chemical tunability amenable to programmed stimuli response. A unique soft actuator architecture is realized by encapsulating microgels in soft microcirculatory systems which enable the convenient delivery of liquid stimuli for powering and
