Understanding the Effects of Conductive Polymer Electrode Coating on Recorded Neural Signals
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Conductive polymer coatings are widely explored to improve the quality of signals recorded with chronically implanted neural electrodes, offering enhanced biocompatibility along with reduced electrode impedance. Combining computational modelling and data from PEDOT:PTS coated and PtIr electrodes in rats, we show that improvements in signal quality with

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This review highlights recent advances in smart face masks that actively monitor breathing. By integrating humidity, gas, temperature, pressure, strain, and triboelectric sensors, these masks track key respiratory parameters in real time. The article summarizes sensor mechanisms, compares performance across studies, and discusses challenges and future ...

Surface Acoustic Wave Driven Microchannel Flow [PDF]
, 2007 We demonstrate that the propagation of surface acoustic waves, arising from the excitation of the acoustic field on a piezoelectric crystal (lithium niobate) substrate, along the sidewalls of microchannels (50 μm or 280 μm wide and 200 μm deep ...

Surface waves and surface wave devices in atmospheric acoustics [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1990 Surface waves exist above porous grounds when the surface can influence the airborne particle velocity near the ground and reduce the phase velocity of sound waves in air at the surface, thereby trapping some of the energy to remain near the surface as the wave propagates. The experimental evidence for the existence of an acoustic surface wave has been

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...
