The introduction of new materials for the production various types constructs that can connect directly to tissues has enabled development such fields science as medicine, tissue, and regenerative engineering. implementation these materials, called biomaterials, contributed a significant improvement in quality human life terms health. This is due constantly growing availability implants, prostheses, tools, surgical equipment, which, thanks their specific features biocompatibility, appropriate mechanical properties, ease sterilization, high porosity, ensure an living. Biodegradation ensures, among other things, ideal rate regenerated tissue. Current tissue engineering medicine strategies aim restore function damaged tissues. current gold standard autografts (using patient’s accelerate healing), but limitations limited procurement certain tissues, long operative time, donor site morbidity have warranted search alternative options. use biomaterials this purpose attractive option number being developed tested rapidly.

Abstract Lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) are one of the most exciting inventions 20th century and have been widely employed in modern society. LIBs powered many our electronics, such as laptop computers, smartphones, even large‐scale energy storage systems. With development technology, next‐generation with higher density demand. A number electrode materials high theoretical capacity, including Sn, Si, Li metal anode, S cathode materials, explored. Nevertheless, they usually suffer from structural or interface failure during cycling, limiting their practical application. Ga‐based liquid metals (LMs) possess self‐healing capability, fluidity, metallic advantages so skeletons interfacial protective layers to minimize negative impact volume expansion dendritic growth on materials. Herein, features LMs briefly discussed indicate potential for battery In addition, recent developments applied summarized, aspects anodes, cathodes, electrolytes. Finally, future opportunities challenges highlighted.

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors are promising channel materials for continued downscaling of complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) logic circuits. However, their full potential continues to be limited by a lack scalable high-k dielectrics that can achieve atomically smooth interfaces, small equivalent oxide thicknesses (EOTs), excellent gate control, and low leakage currents. Here, large-area liquid-metal-printed ultrathin Ga2O3 2D electronics optoelectronics reported. The Ga2O3/WS2 interfaces enabled the conformal nature liquid metal printing directly visualized. Atomic layer deposition compatibility with Ga2O3/HfO2 top-gate dielectric stacks on chemical-vapor-deposition-grown monolayer WS2 is demonstrated, achieving EOTs ∼1 nm subthreshold swings down 84.9 mV/dec. Gate currents well within requirements ultrascaled low-power These results show oxides bridge crucial gap in integration next-generation nanoelectronics.
