RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Robotic systems are increasingly used to enhance clinical outcomes in prostate intervention. To evaluate the clinical value of the proposed portable robot, the robot-assisted and robot-targeted punctures were validated experimentally. METHOD: The robot registration utilising the electromagnetic tracker achieves coordinate transformation from the ultrasound (US) image to the robot. Subsequently, Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided phantom trials were conducted for robot-assisted, free-hand, and robot-targeted punctures. RESULTS: The accuracy of robot registration was 0.95 mm, and the accuracy of robot-assisted, free-hand, and robot-targeted punctures was 2.38 ± 0.64 mm, 3.11 ± 0.72 mm, and 3.29 ± 0.83 mm sequentially. CONCLUSION: The registration method has been successfully applied to robot-targeted puncture. Current results indicate that the accuracy of robot-targeted puncture is slightly inferior to that of manual operations. Moreover, in manual operation, robot-assisted puncture improves the accuracy of free-hand puncture. Accuracy superior to 3.5 mm demonstrates the clinical applicability of both robot-assisted and robot-targeted punctures.

RESUMO

Development of supramolecular adhesives with strong tolerance to extreme conditions has emerged as an important research area. In this study, by balancing supramolecular interactions such as hydrogen bonding interactions, electrostatic interactions, π-π stacking interactions, and cation-π interactions, we designed and prepared a series of two-component supramolecular adhesives derived from small organic molecules. Highly efficient interfacial adhesion with maximum adhesion strength of ≈10.0 MPa was realized on various surfaces in air, organic solvents, or liquid nitrogen. Owing to balanced supramolecular interactions, water participation prolonged and increased the tolerance of the adhesives in extreme environments. We demonstrate that the combination of imidazole-based ionic liquids and phenols can be applied for various interfacial adhesions, thereby aiding the development of next-generation adhesives capable of adapting to various extreme conditions in a controlled manner.

RESUMO

2D organic molecular crystals (2DOMCs) are promising materials for the fabrication of high-performance optoelectronic devices. However, the growth of organic molecules into 2DOMCs remains a challenge because of the difficulties in controlling their self-assembly with a preferential orientation in solution-process crystallization. Herein, fullerene is chosen as a model molecule to develop a supramolecular gel crystallization approach to grow large-area 2DOMCs by controlling the perfect arrangement on the {220} crystal plane with the assistance of a gelated solvent. In this case, the gel networks provide tuneable confined spaces to control the crystallization kinetics toward the growth of dominant crystal faces by their inhibiting motions of solvent or solute molecules to enable the growth of perfect crystals at appropriate nucleation rates. As a result, a large-area fullerene 2DOMC is produced successfully and its corresponding device on a flexible substrate exhibits excellent bendable properties and ultra-high weak light detection ability (2.9 × 1011 Jones) at a 10 V bias upon irradiation with 450 nm incident light. Moreover, its photoelectric properties remain unchanged after 200 cycles of bending at angles of 45, 90, and 180°. These results can be extended to the growth of other 2DOMCs for potentially fabricating advanced organic (opto)electronics.

RESUMO

Interfacial adhesion under extreme conditions has attracted increasing attention owing to its potential application of stopping leakages of oil or natural gas. However, interfacial adhesion is rarely stable at ultralow temperatures and in organic solvents, necessitating the elucidation of the molecular-level processes. Herein, we used the intermolecular force-control strategy to prepare four linear polymers by tuning the proportion of hydrogen bonding and the number of electrostatic sites. The obtained polymeric ion liquids displayed strong dynamic adhesion at various interfaces. They also efficiently tolerated organic solvents and ultracold temperatures. Highly reversible rheological behaviors are observed within a thermal cycle between high and ultracold temperatures. Temperature-dependent infrared spectra and theoretical calculation reveal thermal reversibility and interfacial adhesion/debonding processes at the molecular level, respectively. This intermolecular force-control strategy may be applied to produce environmentally adaptive functional materials for real applications.
