Flexible Polypyrrole‐Based pH Sensors via Oxidative Chemical Vapor Deposition
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Oxidative chemical vapor deposition (oCVD) of polypyrrole (PPy) thin films yields flexible, electrically conductive, and biocompatible pH sensors for monitoring on‐skin biological events. The highly sensitive, oCVD PPy skin‐conformal sensors enable real‐time, spatially resolved sensing of dynamic pH changes within physiologically relevant ranges (4–9 ...

Solvent‐Free Thermal Defect Engineering in Molecular Frameworks With Volatile Linkers
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Thermal removal of neutral volatile linkers enables precise and solvent‐free generation of metal vacancies in MOFs. This strategy affords redox‐stable, coordinatively unsaturated FeII sites with tunable spin, ligand coordination, and catalytic behavior. The approach offers a general route to design defect‐functional materials through local coordination
