Light‐Harvesting Photothermal Hotspots Enabled by NIR Scattering‐Absorption Coupling
By coupling the broadband scattering of nanodiamonds with the plasmonic absorption of gold nanostars, this work proposes a novel strategy for the active modulation of photon transport. This strategy creates localized photothermal hotspots in turbid media and achieves a supra‐additive heating efficiency, thereby providing a universal platform for low ...

Reinforcing Oxygen Activation of Spinel Oxide via Mn─O Covalency Engineering for VOCs Oxidation
A MnCo spinel catalyst with weakened Mn─O covalency was synthesized via a hard‐template method. The reduced Mn─O covalency facilitates localized electron redistribution, promoting the activation of both molecular oxygen and lattice oxygen, and thereby enabling the efficient and complete oxidation of VOCs (ethyl acetate, toluene, and propane).
