A Transparent Membrane for Active Noise Cancelation
Philipp Rothemund,Xavier Morelle,Kun Jia,Kun Jia,George M. Whitesides,George M. Whitesides,Zhigang Suo +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, an optically transparent membrane is used for active noise cancellation, which consists of a prestretched hydrophobic elastomer, attached to a rigid frame and sandwiched between two hydrogels swollen with an aqueous solution of salt.

Magnetic Filtration of Small Heterogeneous Catalyst Particles. Preparation of Ferrimagnetic Catalyst Supports
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report a general technique for the preparation of magnetically responsive, ferrimagnetic, supported heterogeneous catalysts, and illustrate the usefulness of high-gradient magnetic separation (HGMS) techniques for separating these as well as ferromagnetic and certain paramagnetic catalyst particles from suspension.

Charge Transport Across Insulating Self-Assembled Monolayers: Non-equilibrium Approaches and Modeling To Relate Current and Molecular Structure
TL;DR: This work indicates that significant control over SAMs largely composed of nominally insulating groups may be possible when tail groups are used that are significantly larger than those used in the experiments of Yoon et al.1.
