Protease‐Activated Theranostic Nanomedicine for Endometriosis Treatment

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder that affects a substantial proportion of reproductive‐aged women. In this study, we identify aberrant overexpression of matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9) in endometriotic lesions and develop a novel multifunctional nanomedicine that integrates MMP‐9‐targeted therapy, ratiometric photoacoustic (PA ...

Highly Efficient and Stable Roll‐to‐Roll Coated Perovskite Solar Cells Enabled by Antisolvent Vapor‐Assisted Crystallization

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Antisolvent Vapour‐Assisted Crystallization (AVAC) enables controlled perovskite crystallization through precisely metered antisolvent vapour, eliminating liquid antisolvent waste. Compatible with roll‐to‐roll (R2R) slot‐die coating, AVAC produces uniform, pinhole‐free films with enlarged grains, delivering efficiencies of 18.3% for R2R fabricated ...

Automation of heating system with heat pump

, 2016
Because of high prices of energy, we are upgrading our heating systems with newer, more fuel efficient heating devices. Each new device has its own control system, which operates independently from other devices in a heating system. With a relatively low investment costs in automation, we can group devices in one central control system and increase the

An Overlooked Transport Mechanism in Organic Mixed Conductors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electrical transport in organic mixed ionic‐electronic conductors is commonly described by ionic and electronic conduction. Here, eumelanin reveals that polarization‐assisted displacement currents constitute an additional transport component that coexists with conductive transport.

Single‐Cell Resolution Mapping of Osteoarthritis‐Associated Chondrocyte Dynamics Using a High‐Density CMOS MEA Platform

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Single‐cell and spatially resolved impedance mapping using a high‐density CMOS‐MEA platform enables non‐invasive monitoring of osteoarthritis‐associated chondrocyte dynamics. Continuous label‐free measurements reveal heterogeneous remodeling behaviors, including proliferation, migration, and phenotypic transitions, establishing a powerful approach for ...
