2D perovskites have attracted tremendous attention due to their superior optoelectronic properties and potential applications in optoelectronic devices. Especially, the larger bandgap of 2D perovskite means that they are suitable for UV photodetection. However, the layered structure of 2D perovskites hinders the interlayer carrier transport, which limits the improvement of device performance. Therefore,...
Photothermal therapy (PTT) and magnetic hyperthermia therapy (MHT) using 2D nanomaterials (2DnMat) have recently emerged as promising alternative treatments for cancer and bacterial infections, both important global health challenges. The present review intends to provide not only a comprehensive overview, but also an integrative approach of the state‐of‐the‐art knowledge on 2DnMat for PTT and MHT...
Colloidal metal nanoparticles dispersions are commonly used to create functional printed electronic devices and they typically require time‐, energy‐ and equipment‐consuming post‐treatments to improve their electrical and mechanical properties. Traditional methods, e.g. thermal, UV/IR, and microwave treatments, limit the substrate options and may require expensive equipment, not available in all the...
Optoelectronic synapses are currently drawing significant attention as fundamental building blocks of neuromorphic computing to mimic brain functions. In this study, a two‐terminal synaptic device based on a doped PdSe2 flake is proposed to imitate the key neural functions in an optical pathway. Due to the wavelength‐dependent desorption of oxygen clusters near the intrinsic selenide vacancy defects,...
Brillouin light scattering and elastodynamic theory are concurrently used to determine and interpret the hypersonic phonon dispersion relations in brush particle solids as a function of the grafting density with perspectives in optomechanics, heat management, and materials metrology. In the limit of sparse grafting density, the phonon dispersion relations bear similarity to polymer‐embedded colloidal...
Thermal management is critical in contemporary electronic systems, and integrating diamond with semiconductors offers the most promising solution to improve heat dissipation. However, developing a technique that can fully exploit the high thermal conductivity of diamond, withstand high‐temperature annealing processes, and enable mass production is a significant challenge. In this study, the successful...
Hierarchical superstructures have novel shape‐dependent properties, but well‐defined anisotropic carbon superstructures with controllable size, shape, and building block dimensionality have rarely been accomplished thus far. Here, a hierarchical assembly technique is presented that uses spinodal decomposition (SD) to synthesize anisotropic oblate particles of mesoporous carbon superstructure (o‐MCS)...
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a systemic autoimmune disease, poses a significant human health threat. Iguratimod (IGUR), a novel disease‐modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD), has attracted great attention for RA treatment. Due to IGUR’s hydrophobic nature, there’s a pressing need for effective pharmaceutical formulations to enhance bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy. The high‐gravity nanoprecipitation...
Due to its tumor homing and long serum half‐life, albumin is an ideal drug carrier for chemotherapy. For endogenous albumin hitchhiking with high cargo loading, a trimeric albumin‐binding domain (ABD), i.e., ABD‐Tri is designed by fusing an ABD with high specificity and affinity for albumin to a self‐trimerizing domain (Tri) with an additional cysteine residue. ABD‐Tri is highly (40 mg L−1) expressed...
High‐value‐added biomass materials like biocarbon are being actively pursued integrating them with soft materials in a broad range of advanced renewable energy technologies owing to their advantages, such as lightweight, relatively low‐cost, diverse structural engineering applications, and high energy storage potential. Consequently, the hybrid integration of soft and biomass‐derived materials shall...
The nucleation stage plays a decisive role in determining nanocrystal morphology and properties; hence, the ability to regulate nucleation is critical for achieving high‐level control. Herein, glass microfluidic chips with S‐shaped mixing units are designed for the synthesis of Au@Pt core/shell materials. The use of hydrodynamics to tune the nucleation kinetics is explored by varying the number of...
