A microscopic light-fueled microhand designed to capture microscopic objects.
Multi-functional, biodegradable hydrogel microparticles that provide information on the authenticity and the potential deterioration of a tagged food or pharmaceutical formulation directly prior to consumption/use is presented.
Indium oxide-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized and used as solid phase extraction adsorbent on a chip, held with the help of an external magnetic field.
In this work microfabricated three-dimensional polymeric nanolattices were conformably coated with a thin layer of high-entropy alloy (CoCrFeNiAl0.3) film via physical vapor deposition.
