A comprehensive review on the five levels of hierarchical structures of silk materials and the correlation with macroscopic properties/performance of the silk materials, that is, the toughness, strain-stiffening, etc., is presented. It follows that the crystalline binding force t ...
Wearable electronic textiles based on natural biocompatible/biodegradable materials have attracted great attention due to applications in health care and smart clothes. Silkworm fibers are durable, good heat conductors, insulating, and biocompatible, and are therefore regarded as ...
This work demonstrates that engineering a three-dimensional photonic crystal (3DPC) structure in a highly flexible gel is a potential method to achieve flexible tactile artificial photonic skin (p-skin) for future visible-light communication (VLC). We investigated the photonic ou ...
This work examines the self-collimation effect of silk materials on fluorescence emission/detection. A macroscopic regulation strategy, coupled with meso-reconstruction and meso-functionalization, is adopted to amplify the fluorescence emission of organic fluorescent dyes (i.e., ...
In this work, we demonstrate the principle of mesoscopic construction of silk fibroin (SF) hybrid materials, which endows the materials with new performance. In implementing this strategy, mediating molecules, wool keratin (WK) molecules, were adopted to in-line synthesize Au nan ...
