Photothermal Heat Spreading for Uniform Pixel Activation in NIR Laser‐Driven Thermochromic Liquid Crystal Displays

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A pixelated full‐color display is driven by a 1064 nm near‐infrared laser without electrical wiring. A graphite photothermal layer converts light into heat, while an aluminum heat‐spreading layer redistributes it for uniform color within each pixel. Optimizing pixel size and spacing suppresses thermal crosstalk, enabling non‐contact reproduction of ...

Smart Contracts - Dumb Idea [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Internet Computing, 2017
Increasingly in e-commerce, smart contracts have relied on the code as the contract. But code can be hacked and fail, leaving multiple parties potentially exposed to legal gray areas, great financial loss, and little recourse. Here, Kieron O'Hara considers the ramifications of such contracts by exploring what happened when the Ethereum platform was ...

Light‐Controlled Localized Delamination and Blistering of Azobenzene‐Containing Polymer Thin Films in an Aqueous Environment

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
When exposed to light of a defined wavelength, the photoisomerization of azobenzene chromophores leads to polymer reorientation, generating stresses that result in solvent‐facilitated localized delamination of the film from the substrate. Additionally, blisters that form spontaneously when exposed to an aqueous environment can be manipulated via ...
