Upconversion Nanoparticle‐Covalent Organic Framework Core–shell Particles as Therapeutic Microrobots Trackable With Optoacoustic Imaging

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Upconversion nanoparticle‐covalent organic framework core–shell particles provide enhanced contrast for optoacoustic imaging by leveraging the optical absorption of upconversion luminescence within the covalent organic framework matrix. Beyond their role as contrast agents, these particles enable customizable therapeutic agent loading and release, as ...

Fabricating Mass‐Producible High‐Performance Metaholograms Using Sol‐Gel‐Processed TiO2

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Mass production of metaholograms on 6‐in. glass is achieved through nanoimprint lithography. TiO₂ sol‐gel is used as an imprint resist, exhibiting a high refractive index in the visible region. Through heat treatment at 600 °C, TiO₂ gel crystallizes into the anatase phase, allowing the fabrication of high‐resolution images with high optical efficiency.

An Aerial–Aquatic Hitchhiking Robot with Remora‐Inspired Tactile Sensors and Thrust Vectoring Units

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView., 2023
An untethered aerial–aquatic hitchhiking robot that can be remotely controlled for flying, swimming, and transiting air–water boundaries rapidly (0.16 s), is presented. Notably, it can autonomously attach to various surfaces in both air and water environments using a remora‐inspired suction disc with flexible tactile sensors.

Crystallization Dynamics of Hybrid Perovskite Mediated by a Biopolymer: From Precursor Solution to Thin Film

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
In order to better understand the complex crystallization dynamics of starch‐assisted metal halide perovskites (MHPs), the properties of colloidal precursor suspensions and the thermodynamic evolution of the crystallization reaction are investigated by a comprehensive set of characterization techniques, from solutions to films.

The static electric polarizability of a particle bound by a finite potential well [PDF]

, 2010
In this paper we derive an expression for the static electric polarizability of a particle bound by a finite potential well without the explicit use of the continuum states in our calculations. This will be accomplished by employing the elegant Dalgarno-Lewis perturbative technique.

The pattern and distribution of deleterious mutations in maize [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
Most non-synonymous mutations are thought to be deleterious because of their effect on protein sequence. These polymorphisms are expected to be removed or kept at low frequency by the action of natural selection, and rare deleterious variants have been implicated as a possible explanation for the "missing heritability" seen in many studies of complex ...
