In this paper, a series of artificial cilia is prepared using additive micro-manufacturing technologies for direction-sensitive acoustic sensing, including electrospray and 3D micro-direct ink writing. The response of the artificial cilia at resonance is significantly enhanced, while the resonance frequencies decrease with increasing length, and the response increases due to the amplification. Two resonances are achieved on a cilium by printing two independent electrode-to-electrode interconnect bridges. Two signal channels of the artificial cilia produce an ‘8’-shaped loop by varying acoustic excitation angles, showing that both amplitude ratio and phase difference are direction-dependent. The two voltages of the artificial cilia can be decoupled to produce different frequencies, amplitudes, and phase differences, thus enabling directional detection of multiple sound sources. The direction-sensitive acoustic sensing is achieved by micro-manufacturing artificial cilia.

Boron nitride nanosheets (BNNS) have emerged as promising fillers for thermally conductive epoxy based composite. However, the improvement of composite thermal conductivity is often constrained by interfacial thermal resistance (ITR) at filler-filler and filler-matrix interfaces. The smooth and inert surface of BNNS exacerbates this challenge. To address these issues, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are in situ synthesized on BNNS surfaces through a simple annealing process. The BNNS-Ag fillers are subsequently modified using 3-(Mercaptopropyl)triethoxysilane (MPTS) to enhance filler-polymer matrix interactions through thiol-silver and silane-epoxy reaction. This dual modification strategy reduces ITR at both filler-filler and filler-matrix interfaces, enabling the epoxy nanocomposite to achieve a thermal conductivity of 1.64 W (m·K)<sup>−1</sup> at 30 wt.% filler loading, representing an 811.1% improvement compared to neat epoxy. Furthermore, the BNNS-AgNPs@MPTS nanocomposite exhibits excellent electrical properties. Meanwhile, both experimental studies and simulations have demonstrated the promising potential of epoxy nanocomposites as high-performance thermal interface materials (TIMs).

This is achieved through mechanical programming of 2D magnetically immobilized LM paste formed via incorporating magnetic particles into LMs. Such composite effectively resists leakage due to the combined effect of strong magnetic inter‐attraction within the porous magnetic networks and the high surface tension of LMs, while retaining the high conductivity. Diverse freestanding magnetic LM structures, obtained upon LM solidification at ambient temperature, dynamically morph between their 2D and various 3D configurations through multiple cycles of induction heating and magnetic‐assisted reprogramming, featuring large compression resistance and self‐healing capabilities. Potential applications of these leakage‐resistant, shape‐adaptable structures are demonstrated through a helical magnetic LM antenna, which showcases its efficiency in wireless communication and energy harvesting.","PeriodicalId":110,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Electronic Materials","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144701434","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
