Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.Residual tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) from ZnO nanoparticle (NP) synthesis is uncovered as a hidden impurity that migrates into quantum dot emissive layers during thermal processing. The resulting exciton quenching reduces the efficiency of quantum dot light‐emitting diodes despite improved electron transport upon annealing.

Force–Displacement Characterization of PNIPAM Microactuators
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A method to experimentally establish a force–displacement diagram of poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) microactuators, printed by 2PP, is presented herein. PNIPAM is a hydrogel whose volume and stiffness change with temperature due to the absorption or release of water.
