Orienting intelligence and multifunction, stretchable semiconductors are of great significance in constructing next-generation human-friendly wearable electronic devices. Nevertheless, rendering semiconducting polymers mechanical stretchability without compromising intrinsic electrical performance remains a major challenge. Combining geometry-innovated inorganic systems and structure-tailored organic semiconductors, a molecular-scale geometric design strategy is proposed to obtain high-performance intrinsically stretchable polymer semiconductors.

Flexible pressure sensors with high sensitivity and wide sensing range are highly desired in e-skins and wearable electronics. However, there is always a trade-off between high sensitivity and broad sensing range for most flexible pressure sensors. Herein, an artificial wheat awn-like hierarchical structure is designed onto the dielectric layer of the iontronic pressure sensor, realizing both high sensitivity and broad working range.

Article Synopsis
  • Quantitative phase contrast microscopy (QPCM) allows for detailed imaging of sub-organelles in live cells without needing fluorescent dyes, but traditionally requires three images shifted in phase.
  • This study introduces a new approach that combines QPCM with a convolutional neural network to achieve high-quality imaging using only two phase-shifted images.
  • The enhanced QPCM setup features a phase-type spatial light modulator for capturing these images in one go, enabling real-time observation of dynamic processes in living cells with impressive resolution and speed.

Background: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the leading cause of neonatal gastrointestinal-related death, while the etiology and pathogenesis are poorly understood.

Methods: The levels of CCL3 in intestinal tissue from modeling mice and patients were measured and analyzed. HE staining, TUNEL, Annexin and FCM were used to assess pathological changes and apoptosis in intestinal tissue and epithelial cells.
