Toward Reliable Spectroscopic Analysis of Reaction Kinetics in Polaritonic Chemistry
Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 11, 13 June 2026.Vibrational strong coupling has been reported to modify chemical reaction rates, yet its mechanism remains unresolved. We expose pitfalls in UV/Vis‐based kinetic analyses and emphasize the need for standardized cavity protocols. ABSTRACT Recent reports suggest that chemical reaction rates can change inside an optical cavity.

Geometry Analysis of Two Photon Polymerized Microneedles—An Experimental and Simulated Approach
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 22, June 10, 2026.This research investigates the mechanical stability of hollow, two‐photon‐polymerized microneedles for drug delivery. In an experimental setup, a steel stamp gradually compresses 1000 μm‐tall microneedles while recording their force–deformation response.

Parallel 3D Bioprinting on SLIPS‐Microarrays
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 45, 5 June 2026.This work introduces the first truly parallel 3D bioprinting method, enabling both the simultaneous fabrication of hundreds of cell laden hydrogel 3D structures and their HTS in individual liquid compartments. By integrating Digital Light Processing (DLP) stereolithography with functional micropatterns, the platform decouples printing time from array ...
