However, 2D TMDCs are difficult to heavily dope reversibly, which limits their resistive switching performances. Inspired by the biological gas-receptor signaling pathway, we report a gas (H2O)-receptor (defect) synergistic interaction (GRSI) mechanism to greatly enhance the resistive switching capabilities of 2D TMDC-based memristors by over 10,000 times. Employing the GRSI, the synaptic device emulates multiple synaptic plasticities and exhibits outstanding long-term potentiation and depression with a large dynamic range (>200), multiple resistance states (28 levels), and ultralow programming/reading powers (Pprog < 100 pW, Pread < 1 pW). As an artificial nociceptor, the device precisely simulates characteristic behaviors of biological nociceptors. More importantly, the GRSI is universally applicable to various 2D TMDCs including MoS2, WS2, SnS2, and ReS2. This work provides a bioinspired solution to high-performance, multifunctional 2D neuromorphic devices, stepping further toward their practical applications.","PeriodicalId":388,"journal":{"name":"Matter","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143635767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We found that long, flexible spacers yield stable zwitterionic liquids (ZILs), which we attribute to amplified entropy of fusion. Remarkably, stable ZILs with an elongated (6–16 atom length) inter-charge spacer, flexible tail, and a CF3-sulfonimide anion are 100- to 500-fold less viscous at room temperature than a benchmark supercooled ZI with a 4-atom spacer and a sulfonate anion. Moreover, these previously unreported ZILs exhibit high permittivities ranging from εr,s = 290 (6-atom spacers) to εr,s = 404 (16-atom spacers), highlighting the promise of this class of polarizable soft matter.","PeriodicalId":388,"journal":{"name":"Matter","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143635768","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, achieving similar microstructures in engineering materials remains a formidable challenge. In this study, we combine the wet rotary jet spinning (WRJS) system with a salting-out process to fabricate highly anisotropic fibrous poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogels with controlled crystallinity and interfacial adhesion between fibers. We engineered hydrogels to emulate the mechanical characteristics of structural materials in nature. The resulting materials demonstrate excellent anisotropic alignment at both the molecular and fiber scales. By controlling adhesion between fibers, we obtain a compact material that is more ductile than both of the individual fibers of which it is composed and isotropic bulk PVA. Overall, these fibrous hydrogels exhibit mechanical properties comparable to various natural tissues, offering significant potential for applications in soft devices and tissue engineering.","PeriodicalId":388,"journal":{"name":"Matter","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143635763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we present a wearable transdermal device (WTD) system composed of a portable iontophoresis device with an electroresponsive hydrogel (electrogel) and polymeric MN patches. When activated by a programmed current of the WTD, the macroporous electrogel shrinks to control drug solution release and further transport into the skin via MN-generated microchannels, providing efficient, on-demand transdermal drug administration. In vivo experiments in a diabetic model demonstrated that the WTD system rescued mice from hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia by transdermally delivering insulin or glucagon, respectively. It enabled programmed delivery based on blood glucose levels to avoid multiple injections. Moreover, the WTD system could deliver high-dosing required chemo drug and effectively inhibited tumor growth in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice.","PeriodicalId":388,"journal":{"name":"Matter","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143608641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study presents an approach to convert hard keratin proteins into flexible, moldable, and freestanding bioplastics. This method relies on reprogramming the keratin’s structure by grafting building blocks on fully unfolded keratin via the thiol-based Michael-type addition between double bonds of the building blocks and thiols of keratin. The engineered protein showed new functionalities, resulting in: thermoplastic keratin after grafting with poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate; and increased toughness with poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate, a fully bio-based, flexible, and tough material (that outperformed every other regenerated keratin material) from epoxidized soybean oil acrylate. This efficient reaction occurs at room temperature in the same aqueous solution used for the extraction, without the need for additional steps. This approach emphasizes the potential of proteins as sustainable plastic alternatives.","PeriodicalId":388,"journal":{"name":"Matter","volume":"183 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143608743","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This specialized microstructure enables rapid liquid absorption from the tips to the base within seconds, making it an effective tear-sampling tool to monitor tear biomarkers—a capability confirmed in rat models of dry-eye disease and diabetes. Additionally, these anisotropic porous MNs facilitate the active loading of various drugs, including γδ T cells, from the base to the tips without the need for specialized equipment. The delivery of γδ T cells via MNs has shown efficacy against tumors in both xenograft melanoma and pleural mesothelioma mouse models, presenting a novel approach to adoptive cell therapy.","PeriodicalId":388,"journal":{"name":"Matter","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143561151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Elastomeric interlayers are shown to promote a uniform pressure distribution, which can compensate for interfacial roughness and/or misalignment of the external plates used to apply stack pressure. Owing to the improved pressure uniformity, the Li plating coverage increases from 49% to 70% after charging to 2 mAh/cm2, and Coulombic efficiency increases from 89% to 94%. The interfacial stress distribution is quantified using finite-element simulations under different interlayer conditions. This work demonstrates that stack pressure should not be defined as a singular quantity but as a parameter that varies in space and time as cycling evolves.
