Dynamic Physicochemical Gradients for Tendon–Bone Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Dynamic physicochemical gradients offer a framework for reconnecting soft tendon and hard bone. This Review examines how hydration, transport, loading and degradation reshape these gradients during healing. Coordinating regional biological cues with progressive transfer of load from scaffold to tissue guides the design of interfaces that retain ...

Recyclable Lignin‐Based Thermadapt Shape Memory Polymers With Near‐Infrared Light Response

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Covalent adaptable networks (CANs) have been designed to address the recycling challenges associated with thermosets, while preserving their mechanical properties. However, producing biobased CANs with intelligent response capabilities remains challenging.

Material Coupling in Hybrid Neuromorphic Devices: From Fundamentals to System‐Level Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hybrid neuromorphic devices utilize heterointerfaces between emerging semiconductors, where charge transfer and trapping, ion or defect modulation, and photogating are translated into synaptic functions. This paper discusses coupling strategies that tailor interfacial electronic and ionic properties in organic semiconductors, metal oxides, two ...

Hydrogel‐Based Method for High‐Resolution Measurements of Contact Mechanics in Rapid Biological Adhesives: A Case Study in Cuttlefish Tentacle Strikes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cuttlefish and squid can catch their prey within milliseconds using specialized tentacles and suckers. The physics of how the suckers can attach so quickly has remained a mystery given the technical challenges of studying them in vivo. In this publication, we develop a hydrogel that retains imprints of the suckers in order to estimate the forces they ...

Voltage Gated Ion Entry Into Two‐dimensional Angstrom‐Scale Channels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We demonstrate voltage‐gated ion transport through artificial Å‐scale slit channels (∼4 Å high) formed by van der Waals assembly of 2D materials. At low electric fields, ions are excluded while water permeates. Above a threshold voltage, nonlinear hysteretic conduction emerges, driven by ion dehydration and concentration‐dependent barriers, mimicking ...

Biodegradable Conductors for Implantable and Wearable Transient Bioelectronics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biodegradable conductors are essential building blocks for transient bioelectronics, enabling temporary sensing, stimulation, and energy transfer while eliminating the need for device retrieval. This review summarizes biodegradable metals, conducting polymers, ionic conductors, and conductive composites, highlighting degradation mechanisms, material ...

An Overlooked Transport Mechanism in Organic Mixed Conductors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electrical transport in organic mixed ionic‐electronic conductors is commonly described by ionic and electronic conduction. Here, eumelanin reveals that polarization‐assisted displacement currents constitute an additional transport component that coexists with conductive transport.
