Adhesive-free bonding of PI/PDMS interface by site-selective photothermal reactions

Jaemook Lim et al.

Summary: By inducing laser-induced photothermal reactions at a specific site on the PI/PDMS interface, an unexpected reinforcement of adhesion strength between the two materials can be achieved. This method has the potential to enable continuous bonding at the microscopic level and can be easily scaled up for practical applications.

Observably boosted electrochemical performances of roughened graphite sheet/polyaniline electrodes for use in flexible supercapacitors

Guangli Li et al.

Summary: This work presents a facile and scalable mechanically exfoliated method to fabricate roughened graphite sheet (RGS) current collector. The electropolymerization parameter-dependent supercapacitive performance of polyaniline (PANI) films is investigated. The dispersed morphology and increased roughness of PANI films contribute to the improved electrochemical performances. The capacitive behaviors of PANI electrodes are further enhanced by using RGS current collector.

State-dependent responses to intracranial brain stimulation in a patient with depression

Katherine W. Scangos et al.

Summary: Deep brain stimulation shows promise in treating severe depression, but questions about anatomical targeting remain. A study implanting intracranial electrodes in a depressed patient found rapid, reproducible emotional responses that were context and state dependent, providing proof of concept for personalized, circuit-specific medicine in psychiatry.

A Review: Electrode and Packaging Materials for Neurophysiology Recording Implants

Weiyang Yang et al.

Summary: This review discusses a wide range of neural tissue implants for neurophysiological recording and emphasizes the critical role of materials in fabricating neural recording implants. It categorizes materials into electrode materials, packaging, and substrate materials, focusing on their properties such as electrical, mechanical, and biocompatibility. The review also highlights the importance of different material properties for chronic implantation and summarizes common packaging materials and biopolymers used in neural interface electrode designs. Additionally, it provides a benchmark analysis of the materials discussed and offers insights into future research trends.

Electrical stimulation mediated the neurite outgrowth of PC-12 cells on the conductive polylactic acid/reduced graphene oxide/polypyrrole composite nanofibers

Rongtao Liu et al.

Summary: The study successfully prepared PLA/rGO/PPy composite nanofibers with stable conductivity, dense and continuous PPy on the surface, and significantly improved wettability. With the presence of PPy and rGO, the conductivity and stability of the composite nanofibers increased, and the proliferation and differentiation of PC-12 cells seeded on the surface were enhanced.
