A Universal Way to Manipulate Droplet via Light‐Fueled Thermocapillary Convection

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A non‐contact light‐induced droplet manipulation strategy fueled by mid‐infrared (MIR) light irradiation is introduced. No additional additives and/or complex substrate are required. Here, thermocapillary convection, directly generated by temperature gradient at outer surface of droplet via localized surface heating, plays a key role to propel the ...

Reconfigurable Nucleic Acid Nanoparticles with Therapeutic RNAi Responses to Intracellular Disease Markers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Many known diseases arise from dysregulated gene expression, and differentially expressed genes can serve as biomarkers to distinguish diseased cells from healthy tissues. In this study, reconfigurable nucleic acid nanoparticles (recNANPs) are introduced that can detect overexpressed cancer biomarkers and subsequently release RNAi inducers to silence ...

Self‐Reinforcing Degradation of Solution‐Processed Small‐Molecule OLEDs: Excited‐States and Molecular Interactions as Key Triggers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐reinforcing degradation in solution‐processed small‐molecule organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) arises from charge accumulation and exciton‐polaron interactions, leading to molecular aggregation and efficiency loss. This study uncovers the fundamental mechanisms behind this degradation and introduces strategic material engineering approaches ...

Edge‐Delocalized Electron Effect on Self‐Expediating Desolvation Kinetics for Low‐Temperature Li─S Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The self‐transformed Schottky heterojunction on MXene is developed to facilitate the dissociation of Li (solvent)x+ to achieve fast Li+ desolvation to promote rapid sulfur conversion kinetics by decreasing the related barriers, contributing to high‐performance Li─S batteries under low‐temperatures.

Fluorophobic Effect Enables Selective Detection of PFAS in Water with Electrolyte‐Gated Organic Transistors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
PerFluoroAlkyl Substances (PFAS) are responsible of major and persistent environmental pollution worldwide. This work demonstrates an ultra‐sensitive sensor for PFAS based on an organic transistor whose gate is functionalized with a binary self‐assembled monolayer containing a perfluorinated molecule.
