Pressure-Perceptive Actuators for Tactile Soft Robots and Visual Logic Devices

Peidi Zhou et al.

Summary: This study introduces a new-type pressure-perceptive actuator that integrates sensing, actuating, and decision-making functions at material level without complex combination. The actuator, composed of actuating and pressure-sensing units fabricated by carbon nanotube (CNT), silk, and polymer composite, operates on low voltages and can control current passing the pressure-sensing unit through tactile pressure. A portable tactile-activated gripper is demonstrated for object manipulation, and visual logic gates using CNT-silk-based material for sensing and actuating are proposed for decision-making processes in intelligent soft robots and logic devices.

Interrogating Plant-Microbe Interactions with Chemical Tools: Click Chemistry Reagents for Metabolic Labeling and Activity-Based Probes

Vivian S. Lin

Summary: The continued expansion of the chemical biology toolbox provides new opportunities to investigate the fundamental molecular mechanisms driving complex plant-microbe interactions. Through the use of metabolic labeling and activity-based probes, researchers can study the impacts of plant-associated microbes on plant growth, metabolism, and immune responses. While current studies mainly focus on the effects of pathogens on plants, chemical biology will also be valuable in exploring mutualistic associations between beneficial microbes and their plant hosts in the future.

Monolithic superaligned carbon nanotube composite with integrated rewriting, actuating and sensing multifunctions

Peidi Zhou et al.

Summary: This study presents a multifunctional integration strategy using monolithic superaligned carbon nanotube (SACNT) composite to achieve functions such as flexible rewritable medium, actuator, and strain sensor. The composite demonstrates excellent rewriting performances, bending-morphing as actuator under near-infrared light, and change in electrical resistance as a strain sensor. Two smart wearable devices are fabricated to showcase human-motion detection and rewritable information display functions simultaneously. This multifunctional SACNT composite is expected to have potential applications in next-generation wearable devices and smart clothing.

A comparative study on the circadian rhythm of the electrical signals of Broussonetia papyrifera and Morus alba

Jinjin Xie et al.

Summary: The study showed that plants exhibit circadian variations in electrical signals, with changes in resistance, impedance, and capacitance throughout a 24-hour cycle. Environmental factors like temperature and light intensity can influence the periodic changes in plant electrical signals within the plant's physiological tolerance. Despite all plant electrical signals showing cyclic behavior, their circadian rhythm characteristics differ, indicating the endogenous maintenance of plant electrical signals.
