Active biointegrated living electronics for managing inflammation.

Seamless interfaces between electronic devices and biological tissues stand to revolutionize disease diagnosis and treatment. However, biological and biomechanical disparities between synthetic materials and living tissues present challenges at bioelectrical signal transduction interfaces. We introduce the active biointegrated living electronics (ABLE) platform, encompassing capabilities across the biogenic, biomechanical, and bioelectrical properties simultaneously.

Silicon Vacancies Diamond/Silk/PVA Hierarchical Physical Unclonable Functions for Multi-Level Encryption.

Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) have emerged as a promising encryption technology, utilizing intrinsic physical identifiers that offer enhanced security and tamper resistance. Multi-level PUFs boost system complexity, thereby improving system reliability and fault tolerance. However, crosstalk-free multi-level PUFs remain a persistent challenge.

Facile Preparation of Polysiloxane-Modified Asphalt Binder Exhibiting Enhanced Performance.

The development of polymer-modified asphalt (asphalt = asphalt binder) is significant because the polymer modifier can improve the performance of asphalt mixture and meet the requirements of the modern asphalt pavement. Herein, we present a novel polysiloxane-modified asphalt with enhanced performance, formed by simply mixing hydroxy-terminated polysiloxane (HO-PDMS) into base asphalt at 140 °C. The interaction mechanism of HO-PDMS in base asphalt was characterized by FT-IR, GPC, and DSC.
