Topology in Biological Piezoelectric Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the topological structures in biological piezoelectric materials, covering morphology evolution, spatial arrangement, and biomimetic strategies. These topologies modulate structure‐property relationships across multiple scales, enabling performance enhancement and multifunctional integration.

Manipulating the Assembly and Architecture of Fibrillar Silk

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, advanced in situ AFM, PiFM, and Cryo‐EM are leveraged to realize in situ observations of nucleation, growth, and degradation of silk nanofibrils. A clear picture of the assembly and structural evolution of regenerated silk nanofibrils is defined and demonstrates a novel strategy for manipulating their structure and properties, which ...

Spiders in the agricultural landscape [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Spiders in agroecosystems play a role in natural pest suppression and contribute to biodiversity. In this thesis I have investigated if and when spiders recolonise cereal fields in spring when they have the potential to suppress establishing pest aphid ...

Unperceivable Designs of Wearable Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Unperceivable wearable technologies seamlessly integrate into everyone's daily life, for healthcare and Internet‐of‐Things applications. By remaining completely unnoticed both visually and tactilely, by the user and others, they ensure medical privacy and allow natural social interactions.
