Photochemical Action Plots Reveal the Fundamental Mismatch Between Absorptivity and Photochemical Reactivity

Advanced Science
Over the last years, the authors' laboratory has employed monochromatic tuneable laser systems to reveal a fundamental mismatch between the absorptivity of a chromophore and its photochemical reactivity for the vast majority of covalent bond forming ...

Nanoconfinement‐Induced Second‐Harmonic Circular Dichroism via Chirality–Ferroelectric Coupling

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Nanoconfinement of a ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal within a chiral nanoporous sponge yields an enhanced second‐harmonic generation circular dichroism (|gSHG–CD| ≈ 1.1). Polarization‐resolved analysis suggests an additional magnetic‐dipole‐associated nonlinear contribution under nanoconfinement, highlighting chirality–ferroelectric coupling as a ...

2D Skeletal Muscle Thin Film Actuators Enhance Efficiency of Biohybrid Robots

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
2D skeletal muscle thin film actuators generate millinewton‐scale forces and millimeter‐scale strokes while remaining functional for over 30 days. Their force density is 20‐fold higher than 3D skeletal muscle actuators, enabling multi‐fin robots with tunable speed and multidirectional steering.

Bio‐inspired inorganic/organic semiconductor heterostructure synapses with UV–visible–NIR wavelength‐dependent responses for image recognition

InfoMat
Neuromorphic vision systems (NVSs) that integrate perception and computing functions are important for edge intelligence. However, the existing implementations suffer from narrow spectral selectivity, the lack of wavelength‐programmable functionality ...

ATP‐Mediated Bidirectional Communication Between Natural and Artificial Cells for Controlled Bioreactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Establishment of bidirectional communication behavior between natural and artificial cells. The first type of communication from natural dendritic cells to artificial polymeric cells was achieved via ATP release after cell lysis. The released ATP was taken up via gated UV‐controlled permeability increase of the polymeric membrane for performing ...

Concentration‐Dependent Self‐Assembly and Nanoparticle Maturation of Reflectins

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Within squid skin, structural coloration arises from iridophores whose Bragg reflector‐like ultrastructures contain high‐refractive‐index reflectin proteins. Coarse‐grained molecular dynamics simulations and dynamic light scattering measurements reveal how concentration modulates reflectin A2 self‐assembly.

Upcycling Keratin‐Based Textile Waste Into High‐Performance Hybrid Fibers Via Tuning the Interfacial Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Keratin recovered from animal‐hair textile waste is fractionated and blended with cellulose to produce continuously spun hybrid fibers. Selecting the high‐molecular‐weight keratin fraction enables 30 wt.% keratin incorporation while maintaining high strength in dry and wet states.
