Abstract Although ionic thermoelectric (iTE) materials can have very high thermopower, it is of great significance to develop novel methods further improve the thermopower and figure merit ( ZT i ). Here, significant improvement in thus value an ionogel by cationic doping, reported. Doping sodium dicyanamide (Na:DCA) into ionogels poly(vinylidene fluoride‐ co ‐hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF‐HFP) 1‐ethyl‐3‐methylimidazolium (EMIM:DCA) that liquid greatly enhance thermopower. This attributed...
The advantages of "printing the right material in position" and unique structure for function" additive manufacturing make design biomimetic graded scaffold bone tissue engineering possible. Here, under different porosities, we propose a TPMS with adjustable pore size, providing guidance designing porous implants without characteristics stress concentration, shielding barrier mass transport. Specifically, structural can be achieved concentration. By adjusting porosity, elastic modulus...
Abstract Poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) is one of the most successful conducting polymers in terms commercialization. A method to readily obtain highly conductive and transparent PEDOT:PSS films urgently needed. simple introduced enhance conductivity such dramatically. By adding a series mineral acids into aqueous solution directly, enhanced by 3–4 orders magnitude. Mechanistic study reveals that enhancement dependent on boiling point, p K value,...
Abstract Jumping is an important locomotion function to extend navigation range, overcome obstacles, and adapt unstructured environments. In that sense, continuous jumping direction adjustability can be essential properties for terrestrial robots with multimodal locomotion. However, only few soft achieve rapid controlled turning obstacle crossing. Here, we present electrohydrostatically driven tethered legless robot capable of rapid, continuous, steered based on a electrohydrostatic bending...
Ionic thermoelectrics (i-TE) possesses great potential in powering distributed electronics because it can generate thermopower up to tens of millivolts per Kelvin. However, as ions cannot enter external circuit, the utilization i-TE is currently based on capacitive charge/discharge, which results discontinuous working mode and low energy density. Here, we introduce an ion-electron thermoelectric synergistic (IETS) effect by utilizing conductor. Electrons/holes drift under electric field...

Soft robotic grippers (SRGs) have been extensively employed in grasping and manipulation applications due to the fact that they are beneficial for pick-and-place of difficult-to-handle delicate objects with various geometries stiffness a comfortable safer way. This article presents bio-inspired shape-adaptive SRG augmented electroadhesion (EA) functionality, FinEA, by cost-effective combination Fin Ray structured two-fingered two soft-stretchable EA pads. The pads were manufactured screen...
Abstract Gallium‐based liquid metal alloys (LMAs) are extensively studied and used recently due to their excellent fluidity, high conductivity, low evaporation pressure. Nonwettable nonsticky marbles (LMMs) also developed address the stickiness issue of oxidized LMAs in air. Current LMMs, however, lack acceptable controllability, shape stability, robustness, greatly limiting practical application. Here, a magnetically controllable marble (MCLMM) that is noncorrosive nonsticky, exhibits good...
Previous studies have revealed the influence of various lattice structures on material density and mechanical properties. However, majority topologies that are considered as study objects directly refer to metal/non-crystal cell configurations. Therefore, this paper proposes a configuration generation approach for generating structure, which can obtain enjoys advantages both ultra-low weight favorable Based approach, new type face-centered cubic (all cubic, AFCC) structure with...
Stretchable conductors are indispensable units of stretchable/wearable electronic devices and systems. However, the conventional including metals, semiconductors, intrinsically conducting polymers, carbon nanotubes, graphene have very limited mechanical stretchability.
