Connecting Droplet Adhesion with Sperm Kinematics: A New Paradigm in Sperm Quality Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates direct experimental evidence to establish a nonintuitive connection between the motion characteristics of self‐propelled sperm cells and their surface interaction. Simultaneous motion visualization and cantilever‐deflection‐based adhesion characterization reveal that sperm‐cell droplets with higher motility exhibit lower surface

Ag‐Cu Nanoarchitecture for Enhanced LSPR Absorption: the Role of Surface Roughness and near‐field Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study investigates the plasmonic properties and biosensing capabilities of a nanocomposite incorporating Cu and Ag nanoparticles for detecting anti‐DbpA antibodies associated with Lyme disease. The enhanced LSPR response is explained through FDTD simulations of Cu–Ag near‐field interactions and increased surface roughness.

Energy Transfer from the Liquid Crystal Bulk to the Surface Enables Dynamic Topographies via Anisotropic Plasticized Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Surface topographical deformation is enhanced in liquid crystal polymer/oligomer network coatings by integrating nonreactive liquid crystal 5CB as a plasticizer, which facilitates the creation of dynamic polymer‐based solid optical devices. Abstract Surfaces with dynamic topographies play a pivotal role in modern technology by providing adaptable ...

How to Achieve High Spatial Resolution in Organic Optobioelectronic Devices?

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study explores how the optoelectronic properties of organic semiconductors impact on the resolution of light‐activated bioelectronic interfaces. Using photovoltage and photocurrent microscopy techniques, the authors show that H2PC/PTCDI heterojunctions enable a resolution down to 6.5 µm due to low carrier mobility along the heterojunction.

A Bilayer Micro/Nanostructured Water‐Based Paint With Effective Thermal Insulating and Reflective Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The design, optimization and characterization of a new bilayer painting system is presented. The underlying layer is engineered to provide exceptional thermal insulation through the synergistic effect of hollow perlite microspheres and micrometer‐sized cellulose particles. The external painting layer is designed to induce the formation of a homogeneous

Extracellular Vesicle Crosslinkers Constructing Hydrogels with Stress‐Relaxation and Bioactive Protein Modification

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are functionalized and used as crosslinkers to construct hydrogels, compatible with common crosslinking chemistries in biomaterial scaffolds. EV crosslinkers provided stress relaxation properties, promoting cell growth. They also enabled efficient protein delivery while maintaining biological activity, as VEGF‐loaded EV ...
