Functional Disorder at the Neural Interface: How Disordered Nanostructures Promote Proper Growth and Differentiation in In Vitro Neural Cultures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work provides a practical guide for neuroengineers to design advanced neural interfaces, embracing and tailoring the concept of functional disorder. By bridging 2D and 3D in vitro models, this work highlights how non‐periodic, spatially heterogeneous, multiscale nanotopography can enable more physiologically relevant platforms for studying neural ...

Chiral Plasmonic Printing of Discrete Hierarchical Chiral Au@Chiral Ag Semi‐Core‐Shell Nanorods With Chiral Plasmon‐Enhanced Photocatalysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chiral plasmonic printing uses CPL as a chiral stimulus to guide asymmetric Ag deposition on chiral Au NRs seeds. Under CPL, hot carriers reduce Ag+, and the process is controlled by both the CPL handedness and the chiral SPR. L‐dc Au generates more hot electrons under LCP than RCP, while D‐dc Au shows the opposite, revealing chiral photon‐selective ...

Structural Colors from Modulated Topological Defects in Molecular Smectic Liquid Crystals

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rather than using dyes and pigments, nature produces the colors of some butterflies and beetles through optical interference phenomena. This study describes an original biomimetic strategy exploiting the spontaneous formation of modulated linear defects in thin films of 8CB, a common molecular liquid crystal.

Black Hole Quencher‐Enhanced Plasmonic Photothermal Conversion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Researchers have developed a universal method to boost plasmonic photothermal conversion by attaching black hole quencher (BHQ) molecules to matched metal nanostructures. This hybrid approach increases efficiency by roughly threefold, reaching up to 69.1% in the near‐infrared‐II window.
