The stretchable sensor skin we propose uses microwaves propagating in a two-Dimensional Signal Transmission (2DST) sheet. A small tactile sensor chip with a pair of Resonant Proximity Connectors (RPCs) couples with 2D microwaves carrying signals. Chip operating power is also supplied by 2D microwaves. The RPC is a spiral electrode whose arc length is a quarter of the electromagnetic wavelength. Chip operating power is supplied by 2D microwaves. Sensor chips are connected to the 2DST sheet by RPCs without electrical contacts anywhere on the sheet. Resonance induced at the electrode reduces impedance between the connector and the conductive layer of the 2DST sheet, enabling sensor chips to be connected stably to the sheet. Experimental results on the RPC show the concept to be effective. We fabricated a 1-bit (touch detection) tactile sensor element consisting of a RFID-tag and RPCs, and confirmed in experiments that the sensor element operates in a stretchable 2DST sheet.

Abstract A passive method of realizing nonreciprocal wave propagation in a two-dimensional (2D) lattice is proposed, using bilinear springs combined with the necessary spatial asymmetry to provide a stable and strong departure from reciprocity. The bilinear property is unique among nonlinear mechanisms in that it is independent of amplitude but sensitive to the sign of the wave motion; the 2D setup allows the flexibility of generating spatial asymmetry at both small and large scales. The starting point is a linear 2D monatomic spring-mass lattice with strong directionally dependent wave propagation. The source and receiver are aligned so that there is virtually no direct wave transmission between them. Adding a region of bilinearity combined with spatial asymmetry that is not in the direct path between the source and receiver causes signal transmission via nonreciprocal scattering. A variety of spatially asymmetric bilinear configurations are considered, ranging from compact modulations confined within the unit cell to extended ones over the whole section, to obtain different dynamic nonreciprocal effects. Simulations illustrate how the combination of bilinearity and spatial asymmetry ensures a passive amplitude-independent nonreciprocal 2D system for a variety of different excitations.

Platelets were metabolically labelled with 32P and the phosphoproteins examined by two-dimensional non-reduced/reduced gel electrophoresis and isoelectric-focusing/gel electrophoresis. Comparison with similar separations of surface-labelled platelets showed that the only major glycoprotein which is phosphorylated is the beta-subunit of glycoprotein Ib, indicating that this subunit contains a cytoplasmic segment. The identification was confirmed using immunoblotting with an antibody to the beta-subunit. Phosphoserine was the principal phosphorylation site, with some phosphothreonine, but phosphotyrosine was absent. No quantitative or qualitative differences could be detected in the phosphorylation of glycoprotein Ib beta from resting or activated platelets. These results exclude changes in phosphorylation of the major platelet membrane glycoproteins as a method of signal transmission by these receptors.

Mammalian nervous systems, as natural ionic circuitries, stand out in environmental perception and sophisticated information transmission, relying on protein ionic channels and additional necessary structures. Prosperously emerged ionic regulated biomimetic nanochannels exhibit great potentialities in various application scenarios, especially signal transduction. Most reported direct current systems possess deficiencies in informational density and variability, which are superiorities of alternating current (AC) systems and necessities in bioinspired nervous signal transmission. Here, inspired by myelinated saltatory conduction, alternating electrostatic potential controlled nanofluidics are constructed with a noncontact application pattern and MXene nanosheets. Under time-variant external stimuli, ions confined in the interlaminar space obtain the capability of carriers for the AC ionic circuit. The transmitted information is accessible from typical sine to a frequency-modulated binary signal. This work demonstrates the potentiality of the bioinspired nervous signal transmission between electronics and ionic nanofluidics, which might push one step forward to the avenue of AC ionics.
