New paper on Liquid Metal-Vitrimer Conductive Composite for Recyclable and Resilient Electronics with @JoshWorchPhD Electrically conductive, plastic-like, and recyclable through liquid metal and a dynamic covalent polymer network In Advanced Materials: advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…
See our new article "Liquid metal pumps itself out of gels to make artificial vasculature" in @Nature Enjoyed writing this as a News & Views for some interesting work using liquid metal to make biomaterial vasculature by Sundaram and Chen et al nature.com/articles/d4158…
New paper on soft electronic vias and interconnects through rapid three-dimensional assembly of liquid metal microdroplets We leverage a curing anomaly to electrically connect across & through circuits for multilayer soft electronics In @NatureElectron: nature.com/articles/s4192…
This octopus-inspired adhesive can stick to just about anything trib.al/E721Dvh
New paper on octopus-inspired adhesives with switchable attachment to challenging underwater surfaces. It works on soft and rigid objects that are flat, rough, and even curved (think rocks, shells, and delicate gel beads)! See it in Advanced Science onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…
New paper on programmable adhesion through triangular and hierarchical cuts in metamaterial adhesives We use triangular & hierarchical cut designs to control peel adhesion force, dissipation, and crack behavior See it in Philos. Trans. Royal Society A royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…
New paper: Multiscale crack trapping for programmable adhesives Micropillars & macroscopic metamaterial adhesives combine for multiscale control, enabling breathable, strong skin adhesives that remove easily! Collab. w/ Hoon Eui Jeong in Science Advances science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
New paper on Direct Ink Write 3D Printing of Fully Dense and Functionally Graded Liquid Metal Elastomer Foams with @emarkvicka. We use DIW to control both LM microstructure and material architecture. See it in Advanced Functional Materials: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…
Want electronics that are robust in harsh, underwater environments? Check out our work towards this goal on Liquid metal‐elastomer composites for water‐resilient soft electronics published in the @UMassPSE special issue in @JPolymSci ! doi.org/10.1002/pol.20…
A postdoc position in the area of soft electronics and integration is immediately available in my group at #VirginiaTech. The research will focus on fabrication, evaluation, and implementation of liquid metal-based soft devices. Please share! Apply: careers.pageuppeople.com/968/cw/en-us/j…
A special issue focused on liquid metals research A nice collection of impressive research in "Advanced Materials Technologies" Guest editors Aaron Ohta, Michael Bartlett, and Michael Dickey and myself @SMSLaboratory @DickeyGroupNCSU onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…
Check out the SPECIAL ISSUE on liquid metal in Advanced Functional Materials Enjoyed co-guest editing with @DickeyGroupNCSU, @K_KalantarZadeh, and Aaron Ohta Big thanks to the authors, reviewers, and editors for 49 great papers See the editorial here onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…
New paper on direct ink write (DIW) printing of a liquid metal-Ag biphasic conductive ink. We enhance the electrical conductivity of stretchable conductors by elongating liquid metal droplets during printing for soft electronics. See it in @ACS_AMI : pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…
See our new article "At the breaking point" out in @NaturePhysics Enjoyed writing this as a News & Views for some interesting work on fracture and toughness from Kolinski et al @EPFLEngineering nature.com/articles/s4156…
Check out our new paper on Kuttsukigami: Sticky Sheet Design with Andrew Croll @crollab! We use adhesion to sculpt thin sheets in a broad range of materials for a versatile and reconfigurable thin-sheet engineering design scheme. See it in @softmatter and featured on the cover!
