Abstract Biological‐machine interface (BMI) devices represent a significant step toward adaptive and cognitive technologies. However, current BMI emphasize the analysis of electrophysiology often overlook chemical information neurotransmitters in process signaling between neurons. To bridge this gap, light‐gated artificial postsynaptic membrane (APM) is introduced, capable reading dopamine (DA) released from rat pheochromocytoma cells regulate neural signal transmission. Like biological membrane, APM porous functionalized by DA‐specific aptamers azobenzene (Azo) molecules different regions. Azo act as light‐responsive trigger that controls DA release, while capture DA, which converts its concentration into an ionic signal. By light‐enhanced responses to exocytosis (PC12) cells, confirms ability communicate with systems, lays foundation for developing biological‐machine interaction systems more advanced functionalities.

Nanofluidic ionic and molecular transport through atomically thin nanopore membranes attracts broad research interest from both scientific industrial communities for environmental, healthcare, energy-related technologies. To mimic the biological ion pumping functions, recently, light-induced quantum effect-facilitated charge separation in heterogeneous 2D-material assemblies is proposed as fourth type of driving force to achieve active noninvasive species synthetic membrane materials. However, date, engineering versatile van der Waals heterostructures into 2D remains largely unexplored.

Abstract Water molecules are ubiquitous disruptors of conventional gas sensing materials, often leading to diminished performance in materials that reliant on electronic signal transmission. This creates the pressing need for efficient with anti‐humidity interference properties. Here, a hammerhead shark‐inspired microvillus‐structured ionic elastomer based transmission nanoconfined space is constructed by incorporating liquids into polymer matrix. The elastomers optimized microvillus structure demonstrated 1.68‐fold higher response than flat ones, short time (9 s) toward 30 ppm triethylamine (TEA), excellent selectivity and low limit detection (LOD) (104.56 ppb). Such serves as proof‐of‐concept effectively combining solvated ion transport design develop advanced systems. With such an evident (23.52%), similar (12 s), LOD (498.05 ppb), long‐term stability (at least days) achieved at relative humidity 70%. Mechanistic investigations revealed effective ions facilitated after sequential water TEA surroundings while significantly enhanced transport. Furthermore, utility system shrimp decay monitoring under wet conditions.
