Our goals were to design, manufacture and test ferromagnetic stents for endothelial cell capture. Ten stents were tested for fracture and 10 more stents were tested for retained magnetism. Finally, 10 stents were tested in-vitro and 8 more stents were implanted in 4 pigs to show cell capture and retention.

Materials like iron, nickel, and cobalt consist of magnetic domains, within which the magnetic dipoles are arranged parallel to each other. The magnetic dipoles are rigidly aligned in the same direction within a domain by quantum mechanical coupling among the atoms. This coupling is so strong that even thermal agitation at room temperature cannot break it. The result is that each domain has a net dipole moment. However, some materials have weaker coupling, and are ferromagnetic at lower...

Protein-protein Interfaces

Many proteins form complexes to carry out their functions, making protein-protein interactions (PPIs) essential for an organism's survival. Most PPIs are stabilized by numerous weak noncovalent chemical forces. The physical shape of the interfaces determines the way two proteins interact. Many globular proteins have closely-matching shapes on their surfaces, which form a large number of weak bonds. Additionally, many PPIs occur between two helices or between a surface cleft and a polypeptide...

A method for the drying-induced self-integration of megamolecular biopolymers on the air-liquid crystalline interface is provided here. This methodology will be useful not only for understanding the macroscopic potentials of biopolymers, but also as an evaluation method for soft materials in biomedical and environmental fields.
FAQs
Exchange coupling transfers the influence of magnetic order across the boundary, but its effect is not always reinforcing. Depending on the interfacial interactions, neighboring spins may align in the same direction or oppose one another. This distinction changes the resulting magnetic configuration and helps explain why interfaces can produce different behavior from the interior of either material.
These factors modify the conditions under which spins arrange themselves and magnetic domains develop. Crystal symmetry can favor particular directions, magnetic anisotropy makes some orientations easier than others, strain alters the interface environment, and roughness creates local variation. Together, they influence domain formation and the way magnetization reverses under changing conditions.
An interface can have atomic structure and interactions that differ from those in the bulk, where the surrounding environment is more uniform. Consequently, magnetic order near the boundary may not follow the behavior expected from either material alone. This interfacial distinction is important when explaining changes in magnetization, domain structure, or coupling in engineered material combinations.
Interactions at a boundary can impose a preferred relationship between magnetic regions, producing effects such as exchange bias or coupling between separate layers. Exchange bias reflects an interface-driven influence on magnetic behavior, while interlayer coupling connects the responses of neighboring magnetic layers. These effects show how localized interactions can control the behavior of a larger multilayer system.
An analysis should begin with the interface’s atomic structure and the interactions linking the adjoining materials. It should then consider crystal symmetry, magnetic anisotropy, strain, and roughness, because each can affect domains and magnetization reversal. Connecting these microscopic features to observed magnetic behavior helps identify which interfacial conditions control the system’s response.
Controlled interface behavior supports the design of spintronic devices, magnetic sensors, and memory technologies. In these applications, interfacial effects can influence spin polarization, magnetic switching, exchange bias, or coupling between layers. Engineering the boundary therefore provides a way to tune device-relevant magnetic properties rather than relying only on the characteristics of the bulk materials.
Engineered multilayers place magnetic materials and interfaces in a controlled sequence, making interlayer magnetic coupling and other boundary effects central to the system’s behavior. They provide a setting for examining how microscopic interface properties influence macroscopic magnetization. This connection is valuable both for fundamental studies of magnetic order and for developing layered magnetic technologies.
