Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent

Role of Amorphous Phases in Mixed Conduction of Conjugated Regioblock Copolymers for Organic Electrochemical Synaptic Transistors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Critical roles of amorphous and crystalline phases in polymer‐based mixed ionic‐electronic conductors for organic electrochemical synaptic transistors using conjugated regioregular‐block‐regiorandom copolymers are demonstrated. Amorphous phases contribute to gradual polaron formation and strong ion trapping by bipolarons, leading to improved synaptic ...

THz‐Driven Coherent Phonon Fingerprints of Hidden Symmetry Breaking in 2D Layered Hybrid Perovskites

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Intense THz pulses are employed to drive coherent phonons in 2D Ruddlesden‐Popper hybrid metal‐halide perovskites (HOIPs) from the (PEA)2(MA)n‐1PbnI3n+1 family, revealing mode‐selective spectroscopic signatures of inversion symmetry breaking in those nominally centrosymmetric materials. These findings provide a handle to decode nonlinear phonon driving

Bio‐Inspired Artificial Muscle‐Tendon Complex of Liquid Crystal Elastomer for Bidirectional Afferent‐Efferent Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The Muscle–tendon complex (MTC)‐inspired Liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) artificial muscle integrates actuation (efferent) and proprioceptive sensing (afferent) by combining contractile nematic and elastic isotropic LCEs within a single soft structure. Embedded liquid metal channels enable simultaneous Joule heating and real‐time sensing of length and ...
