Ultra‐Fine 3D Bioprinting of Dynamic Hyaluronic Acid Hydrogel for in Vitro Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
3D bioprinting merges tissue engineering and additive manufacturing to create biological structures. A bioink is developed by modifying hyaluronic acid, a natural extracellular matrix polymer, with cysteine. Potassium iodide is later added to tune gelation kinetics, enabling fine printing with a 32G needle.

Self‐Trapped Excitons Activate Pseudo‐Inert Basal Planes of 2D Organic Semiconductors for Improved Photocatalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
2D organic semiconductors are widely believed to have uniformly active surfaces. This study reveals that their basal planes can be pseudo‐inert due to anisotropic exciton migration. By inducing exciton self‐trapping through dimensional reduction, these inert planes are activated, boosting hydrogen peroxide production by over 350%. The work uncovers key
