Double Helical Plasmonic Antennas

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Plasmonic double helical antennas funnel circularly polarized light to the nanoscale, offering strong chiroptical interaction and directional light emission. Extending a single helix design tool, this study combines numerical modeling with experimental validation, revealing large, broadband dissymmetry factors in the visible range.

Solvent‐Induced Octahedral Self‐Assembly of Prussian Blue and Its Applications in Sodium‐Ion Capacitors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the stepwise assembly process of octahedral Prussian Blue (PB) particles in glycerol. Initially, smaller cubic PB nanoparticles form and interact in the solvent. Over time, these particles undergo dissolution and reassembly, leading to the formation of well‐defined octahedral structures with minimized surface energy.

Synergistic Osteogenesis After Co‐Administration of cmRNAs Encoding BMP‐2 and BMP‐7 Utilizing a Transcript‐Activated Matrix

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that the dual delivery of BMP‐2/‐7 coding cmRNAs for bone healing is demonstrated as feasible, safe, and highly osteogenic. Compared to single BMP‐2 or BMP‐7 cmRNAs, the combination enhances the production of both mineral and organic components of the extracellular matrix when delivered using a collagen‐HA scaffold, supporting ...
