Among them, fiber-type devices with high mechanical conformability hold great potential to enable next-generation wearable and interactive applications with their special structure and high compatibility with the well-established textile industries. In this study, a hydrogel fiber providing large moisture retention and high mechanical compliance is fabricated, with which a new approach to enable highly stretchable electromechanical sensors based on knot structures is developed. Comparative analysis with common orthogonal textile structures reveal the superior performance of sensors based on ionotronic knots. Stress sensors with the double overhand knot exhibit ≈four times greater variation in capacitance than those with orthogonal structures, and sensors with the clove hitch knot exhibit a fast response time of 57 ms. Based on the characteristics of different knots, a sensor matrix based on clove hitch knots to map the pressure distribution, and a wearable mole code generator based on reef knots to recognize and encode wrist motions are developed. These applications demonstrate the excellent performance of knot-architecture sensors and their great potential in the fields of smart fabrics and human–machine interactions.</p>","PeriodicalId":7292,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Technologies","volume":"9 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141613247","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}

Two critical physical parameters, surface slip length, and surface charge, play a vital role in the channel transport process. However, effectively controlling these parameters under such tight constraints remains a significant challenge. Here, it is developed a novel method that combines oxygen ion etching and layer-by-layer assembly of 2D material, to prepare graphene nanochannels. During the assembly process, defects are introduced into the graphene surface via oxygen ion etching. A significantly higher conductivity is observed for the pristine graphene channels compared to those with defects on both the upper and lower surfaces. Consistent with this observation, the conductivity of graphene channels with defects on only one surface falls between the two aforementioned values. Combined with theoretical analysis, the conductivity difference is attributed to the surface slip inhibition due to the introduced defects, and the change of surface charge, both caused by oxygen ion etching. By introducing defects, a new method is uncovered for fine-tuning ion transport in graphene nanochannels.</p>","PeriodicalId":7292,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Technologies","volume":"9 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141613245","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}

Here, a novel microfluidic platform is reported for the cultivation of transwell-based lung tissues providing the possibility to alternate between air–liquid and liquid–liquid interfaces. While the air–liquid interface recapitulates physiological conditions for the lung model, the liquid–liquid interface enables live imaging of the tissue at high spatiotemporal resolution. The plastics-based microfluidic platform enables the insertion and recuperation of the transwell inserts, which allows for tissue cultivation and analysis under standardized well plate conditions. The device is used to monitor infections of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> in human stem-cell-derived bronchial epithelial tissue. The progression of a <i>P. aeruginosa</i> infection in real-time at high resolution is continuously imaged, which provides insights into bacterial spreading and invasion on the apical tissue surface, as well as insights into tissue breaching and destruction over time.

The lattice design relies on the unit cell size, type, strut diameter, surface wetting, and distribution of cellular structures to control liquid flow and retention. Individual unit cells are tuned to achieve reliable infilling and combined into higher-order architectures to achieve multiscale composite materials with disparate mechanical properties, including those considered non-printable.
