Programming Neuromorphic Plasticity Through Ionic and Electronic Coupling in Organic Electrochemical Transistors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Neuromorphic plasticity in OECTs is governed by the post‐stimulus evolution of coupled ionic and electronic states. Semiconductor chemistry and morphology, electrolyte composition and interfaces, and device architecture regulate ion injection, transport, confinement, and release, shifting responses from rapidly relaxing STP to metastable memory and ...

Microfluidic Architecting of Patchy MXene Core‐Shell Particles for Ultralow‐Loading Photothermal Shape‐Memory Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Spatially distributing Ti3C2Tx nanosheets into core‐shell architecture, rather than as directly dispersed flakes, mitigates aggregation and enhances photon harvesting. When the Ti3C2Tx core‐shell particles are incorporated into a shape‐memory polymer matrix at an ultralow loading of 0.0024 wt%, the improved photothermal conversion translates into ...

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 ...
