The ceramic cone is post-process fired to achieve a pure ceramic cone that is coated with emitting CNT mesh film. Meanwhile, a cone-based polymer emitter is evaluated. The resulting emitter exhibits non-linear current-voltage characteristics reaching maximum 0.6 mA anode current with a turn-on-field voltage below 1 Vµm<sup>−1</sup> and minimal current fluctuation over time. Additionally, the ceramic emitter arrays fabricated using the same technique are demonstrated: if the tip angle and shape in a microscale have tunability in emission is confirmed, meanwhile, the type of volatile gases released during the emission is confirmed using a residual gas analyzer (RGA). The motivation and challenge are to use 3D printing to enable freedom in designing and forming the emitter tip shape and angle and to present the perspective and challenges to use the 3D printing technique combined with the seamless shaping for the CNT mesh film to tune the emitter performance.

Here, the first successful cell-by-cell evaluation of tissue viscoelastic transition is presented. An in situ micro-mechanical perturbation is applied to a microtissue, and the resulting volumetric deformation is evaluated using 3D light-sheet microscopy and digital image correlation (DIC), quantifying both solid-like, well-aligned displacement and liquid-like swirling motion between individual cells. The viscoelastic transition of fibroblasts is crucial in fundamental physiological events, such as placentation, cancer dissemination, and wound healing. This study investigates 3D organoid systems modeling maternal-fetal and tumor-stroma interfaces, demonstrating established molecular and structural parallels. The analysis visualizes individual cells in stromal-epithelial interactions and how they collectively alter tissue viscoelastic properties. It also enables in-silico microdissection, linking single-cell viscoelasticity with multi-channel fluorescence. RNAseq analysis of endometrial stromal fibroblasts shows that decidualization activates mechano-transcriptional regulators, including myocardin-related transcription factors (MRTFs), associated with increased cellular contractility and actomyosin mobilization. Knocking down MRTFA in cancer-associated fibroblasts in the tumor-fibroblast co-culture 3D model induces significant changes in fibroblast properties, mirroring those observed in the maternal-fetal interface model, highlighting parallels between placentation and cancer invasion. This analysis confirms existing beliefs and discovers new insights broadly applicable to studying organoids, embryos, tumors, and other tissues.</p>","PeriodicalId":7292,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Technologies","volume":"10 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143639187","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
