Mechanoluminescence (ML) materials are featured with the characteristic of “force to light” in response to external stimuli, which have made great progress in artificial intelligence and optical sensing. However, how to effectively enable ML in the material is a daunting challenge. Here, a Lu3Al2Ga3O12:Cr3+ (LAGO: Cr3+) near infrared (NIR) ML material peaked at 706 nm is reported, which successfully...
Organic compounds are regarded as important candidates for potassium‐ion batteries (KIBs) due to their light elements, controllable polymerization, and tunable functional groups. However, intrinsic drawbacks largely restrict their application, including possible solubility in electrolytes, poor conductivity, and low diffusion coefficients. To address these issues, an ultrathin layered pyrazine/carbonyl‐rich...
Cancer Immunotherapy
In article number 2308731, Bing Liu, Chun Xu, Lin‐Lin Bu, and co‐workers explore the innovative use of nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery to lymph nodes, aiming to activate the immune system in the battle against cancer. The image interprets the physiological process of nanoparticles targeting lymph nodes for drug delivery as an approach in immunotherapy.
Immunotherapy has emerged as a potent strategy in cancer treatment, with many approved drugs and modalities in the development stages. Despite its promise, immunotherapy is not without its limitations, including side effects and suboptimal efficacy. Using nanoparticles (NPs) as delivery vehicles to target immunotherapy to lymph nodes (LNs) can improve the efficacy of immunotherapy drugs and reduce...
Non‐aqueous solvents, in particular N,N‐dimethylaniline (NMP), are widely applied for electrode fabrication since most sodium layered oxide cathode materials are readily damaged by water molecules. However, the expensive price and poisonousness of NMP unquestionably increase the cost of preparation and post‐processing. Therefore, developing an intrinsically stable cathode material that can implement...
Lithium‐sulfur battery (LSB) is widely regarded as the most promising next‐generation energy storage system owing to its high theoretical capacity and low cost. However, the practical application of LSBs is mainly hampered by the low electronic conductivity of the sulfur cathode and the notorious “shuttle effect”, which lead to high voltage polarization, severe over‐charge behavior, and rapid capacity...
Elastomers generally possess low Young's modulus and high failure strain, which are widely used in soft robots and intelligent actuators. However, elastomers generally lack diverse functionalities, such as stimulated shape morphing, and a general strategy to implement these functionalities into elastomers is still challenging. Here, a microfluidic 3D droplet printing platform is developed to design...
Hierarchical emulsions are interesting for both scientific researches and practical applications. Hierarchical emulsions prepared by microfluidics require complicated device geometry and delicate control of flow rates. Here, a versatile method is developed to design hierarchical emulsions using microfluidic 3D droplet printing in droplet. The process of droplet printing in droplet mimics the dragonfly...
