Atmospheric Doping of Stretchable Polymer Semiconductors for Skin Electronics

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An atmospheric doping system using oxygen molecules in air as dopants is introduced for stretchable polymer semiconductors. The chemisorbed oxygen molecules act as acceptor, lead to increase not only the hole concentration of the semiconductor film over two orders of magnitude (3.37 × 1017 cm−3) but also electrical properties of the field‐effect ...

Indications and the requirements for single-use medical gloves

GMS Hygiene and Infection Control, 2016
Aim: While the requirements for single-use gloves for staff protection are clearly defined, the conventional medical differentiation between “sterile surgical gloves” used during surgical procedures and “single-use medical gloves” used in non-sterile ...

Quantum Dots and Perovskites‐Based Physically Unclonable Functions for Binary and Ternary Keys via Optical‐to‐Electrical Conversion

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates optoelectronic PUFs that improve on traditional optical and electrical PUFs. The absorber materials are randomly coated through spray coating, ligand exchange, and dynamic spin coating. Incident light generates wavelength‐dependent binary multikey and enhances security ternary keys, approaching near‐ideal inter‐ and intra ...

Donning Gloves Before Surgical Gown Cross-contaminates the Assistant

Arthroplasty Today, 2022
Background: Maintaining a sterile surgical environment is of the upmost importance in total joint arthroplasty. The surgical gown-glove interface is a frequent and known cause of bacterial contamination. A variation of the traditional staff-assisted open-

Graft Copolymer‐Stabilized Liquid Metal Nanoparticles for Lithium‐Ion Battery Self‐Healing Anodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a self‐healing liquid metal anode for lithium‐ion batteries, where graft copolymer‐stabilized eutectic gallium indium (EGaIn) nanoparticles enhance stability and rate performance. The fluorinated grafted copolymer forms ionic channels, preventing EGaIn aggregation and facilitating lithium‐ion migration.

Self‐Reinforcing Degradation of Solution‐Processed Small‐Molecule OLEDs: Excited‐States and Molecular Interactions as Key Triggers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐reinforcing degradation in solution‐processed small‐molecule organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) arises from charge accumulation and exciton‐polaron interactions, leading to molecular aggregation and efficiency loss. This study uncovers the fundamental mechanisms behind this degradation and introduces strategic material engineering approaches ...

Dynamic Gesture Recognition Using a Smart Glove in Hand-Assisted Laparoscopic Surgery

Technologies, 2018
This paper presents a methodology for movement recognition in hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery using a textile-based sensing glove. The aim is to recognize the commands given by the surgeon’s hand inside the patient’s abdominal cavity in order to guide
