Role of the Recombination Zone in Organic Light‐Emitting Devices
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review summarizes the critical role of the recombination zone in organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs). We highlight that broadening the recombination zone in OLEDs based on emissive layers with balanced charge transport and high photoluminescence quantum yields provides a promising route toward achieving both long operational lifetime and high ...

Two‐Photon 3D Printing of Functional Microstructures Inside Living Cells
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study demonstrates 3D printing inside living cells by using two‐photon photo‐lithography. A bio‐compatible photoresist is injected into cells and selectively polymerized with a femtosecond laser, creating custom‐shaped intracellular structures with submicron resolution.

Why Is the Mechanism Underlying the Chiral‐Induced Selectivity Effect Still Challenging?
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The chiral‐induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect is observed in many experimental configurations and for different materials. However, there are theoretical challenges in attempting to explain those results. A qualitative framework for explaining all the results is presented.
