Reactivity of Oxidized Porous Silicon with Calcium Ion in Aqueous Media: Stability, pH Behavior, and Host‐Guest Strategies

Small, EarlyView.
Oxidized porous silicon, composed of an elemental silicon porous skeleton coated with a silica shell, reacts with aqueous Ca2+ to generate a mixed silica–calcium silicate matrix that is remarkably efficient at trapping small molecules. With an emphasis on the engineering of controlled‐release drug delivery systems, this study identifies the factors ...

Synergistic Design of a SiO2–CNT–Amorphous Carbon 3D Host for Stable SEI Formation and Long‐Term Cycling Stability of Lithium Metal Anodes

Small, EarlyView.
SiO2@AC‐CNT microspheres, produced by spray pyrolysis and carbonization, present a 3D host where SiO2 is uniformly embedded within the CNT‐amorphous carbon framework. The architecture balances electronic conductivity and lithiophilicity, guiding uniform, dendrite‐free lithium deposition.

Biomimetic TME‐Responsive Nanotheranostics for Precise NIR‐II Ratiometric Photoacoustic Imaging and Synergistic Immuno‐Photothermal Therapy

Small, EarlyView.
A biomimetic Au/Ag@HMON‐NLG@CCM nanotheranostic is engineered for tumor microenvironment‐responsive NIR‐II ratiometric photoacoustic imaging and immune‐photothermal therapy. The integration of hyperthermia‐triggered immunogenic cell death with IDO‐blockade‐mediated metabolic remodeling promotes dendritic cell maturation and T‐cell activation.

Biomimetic Ion Channel Design for Simultaneous Lithium‐Ion Flux Regulation and Interfacial Stabilization in Lithium Metal Batteries

Small, EarlyView.
Inspired by biological cell membranes, BCE‐encapsulated MOFs create bionic Li+ transport channels. These channels homogenize Li+ flux via Li+‐crown ether ion‐dipole interactions and manipulate solvation structures to form inorganic‐rich SEI layers.
