Abstract Because of the weak interfacial bonding between substrates and active materials, most stretchable electronics often face problem performance destabilization functional failure, especially under large strains. Herein, a super‐elastic, high conductive core‐shell nanofibrous helix based on polyurethane (PU), silk fibroin (SF) liquid metal (LM) is fabricated. Compared with traditional membrane, that LM@PU/SF fibrous shows wider range workable strain (1500%) reversible elasticity (600%) accompany conductivity found. SF acted as “glue” to strengthen PU LM. The good helical structure polymer well fluidity LM improve stretchability, conductor. Furthermore, an alarming monitoring apparatus using unit multiscale fracture engineered. This composite ultra‐high elasticity, making it promising candidate for electronic devices.

Abstract Shape morphing in bistable kirigami enables remarkable functionalities appealing to a diverse range of applications across the spectrum length scale. At core their shape shifting lies architecture repeating unit, where highly deformable slits and quasi‐rigid rotating units often exhibit multiple symmetries that confer isotropic deployment obeying uniform scaling transformation. In this work, symmetry breaking is investigated access geometric frustration anisotropic morphing, enabling arbitrarily scaled planar spatial domains. With an analysis on properties complemented by systematic investigation integrating semi‐analytical derivations, numerical simulations, experiments elastic sheets, work unveils fundamental relations between slit symmetry, frustration, deployment. Furthermore, asymmetric are leveraged flat‐to‐3D demonstrations showcase pivotal role shear deformation achieving target shapes functions so far unattainable with uniformly stretchable kirigami. The insights provided unveil controlling soft metamaterials, enriching achievable for spanning deployable space structures, wearable technologies, machines.

With the rapid development of micro/nanofabrication technologies, concept transformable kirigami has been applied for device fabrication in microscopic world. However, most nano-kirigami structures and devices were typically fabricated or transformed at fixed positions restricted to limited mechanical motion along a single axis due their small sizes, which significantly limits functionalities applications. Here, we demonstrate precise shaping position control microrotors. Metallic microrotors with size ~10 micrometers deliberately released from substrates readily manipulated through multimode actuation controllable speed direction using an advanced optoelectronic tweezers technique. The underlying mechanisms versatile interactions between electric field are uncovered by theoretical modeling systematic analysis. This work reports novel methodology fabricate manipulate micro/nanorotors well-designed sophisticated morphologies, providing new solutions future micro/nanomachinery.

Chronic wounds affect ~2% of the U.S. population and increase risks amputation mortality. Unfortunately, treatments for such are often expensive, complex, only moderately effective. Electrotherapy represents a cost-effective treatment; however, its reliance on bulky equipment limits clinical use. Here, we introduce water-powered, electronics-free dressings (WPEDs) that offer unique solution to this issue. The WPED performs even under harsh conditions-situations wherein many present fail. It uses flexible, biocompatible magnesium-silver/silver chloride battery pair stimulation electrodes; upon addition water, creates radial electric field. Experiments in diabetic mice confirm WPED's ability accelerate wound closure promote healing by increasing epidermal thickness, modulating inflammation, promoting angiogenesis. Across preclinical models, WPED-treated group heals faster than control with rates comparable requiring expensive biologics and/or complex electronics. results demonstrate potential as an effective more practical treatment dressing.
