The Fourth Dimension: Fabricating Artificial Blood Vessels with 4D Bioprinting
An advanced 4D bioprinting approach uses shape-morphing, biopolymer hydrogels to form the basis for blood vessels and other tubular structures in artificial tissues and organs.
Harnessing the Marangoni Effect in Semiconductor Manufacturing
Researchers from the University of Hong Kong report how solution shearing of organic semiconductor crystals is influenced by a surface tension gradient. Using a Marangoni-effect-assisted bar coating method, ultrathin, uniform layers of crystals with large domain sizes are obtained that show excellent performance in organic field-effect transistors.
Flexible Electroluminescent Device for Modular Sensing Applications
Researchers introduce a new device concept for electroluminescent displays, which does not require transparent electrodes and can be used as remotely readable, spatially-responsive sensors that emit light in response to the accumulation and distribution of materials on the device surface.
A Powerful Tool for Nanostructures
Abetz Volker and his team demonstrate how complex nanostructures can be achieved by polymer blending.
Plasma Makes POSS Nanomaterials More Effective and Environment Friendly
A new study introduces an innovative and cost-effective technique for the plasma functionalization of POSS micro-powders without damaging the nanocage structure they are based on.
