Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This work reveals that charge transport in nickel benzenehexathiol coordination nanosheets is governed by variable‐range hopping reflecting structural disorder. Electrolyte gating induces a switch in dominant carrier polarity from p‐type to n‐type and leads to an improvement in thermoelectric performance.

Borate‐Water‐Based 3D‐Slime Interface Quasi‐Solid Electrolytes for Li‐ion Batteries
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This advanced material, composed of lithium borate, lithium salt, and water, is a quasi‐solid that can be handled in air and has a 3D‐conducting‐interface network (3D‐Slime‐Interface Quasi‐Solid Electrolytes: 3D‐SLISE). The 3D‐SLISE is nonflammable and can be used in lithium‐ion batteries, and its water solubility allows direct recycling of active ...

Spatially selective manipulation of cells with single-beam acoustical tweezers
Nature Communications, 2020 Acoustical tweezers can exert forces several orders of magnitude greater than optical tweezers but the absence of spatial selectivity and their limited resolution has prevented their use for many applications in microbiology.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.An electrolyte‐gated field effect transistor sensor is used to detect an environmentally relevant nanoplastic model. The sensor identifies the presence of polystyrene nanoplastics in water dispersions without significantly altering its performance in the presence of mercury on the nanoplastics’ surface, indicating that it may be utilized in ...

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.2D gold nanoparticle superlattices (Au NPSLs) stabilized by Schiff base reaction are formed by a layer‐by‐layer deposition method. As‐synthesized 2D Au NPSLs show high structural stability in solvents of different polarity. Due to their high structural stability, the 2D Au NPSLs can be reused as surface enhanced Raman scattering substrates for 10 ...

Optical trapping and optical binding using cylindrical vector beams
Atti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali, 2011 We report on the use of cylindrical vector beams for optical manipulation of micron and sub-micron sized particles using the methods of a single-beam gradient force trap (optical tweezers) and an evanescent-field surface trap (optical binding).

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.This study presents a platform for simultaneous monitoring and electrical control of cellular responses at the cell–electrode interface. The platform delivers tunable yet uniform electrical cues to cells, revealing that optimal electrical stimulation (ES) conditions vary across cell types.
