Spatially Confined/Ligand‐Directed Ultrabright NIR‐AIE Nanoprobe for In Vitro Rapid Detection and In Situ Imaging of Bacterial Septic Arthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inorganic PbS quantum dots spatially confine AIEgens and enable cooperative luminescence within a ligand‐directed core–shell–shell nanoassembly, generating ultrabright NIR PPANPs with enhanced fluorescence and photothermal performance. The platform enables 10‐min S.

Ionically Counter‐Programmable Phase‐Separation of Superstable Star‐Biopolyamide Coacervates for Electrothermally‐Responsive Pseudosolid Smart Windows

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We develop bio‐based, star‐branched polyamides from itaconic acid and cadaverine with tunable lower critical solution temperature (LCST) transitions for dynamic solar modulation. Specific metal ion coordination with pyrrolidone moieties drives precise phase transitions via calcium‐induced salting‐in and sodium‐induced salting‐out mechanisms. Formulated

Understanding soft condensed matter via modeling and computation

open access: yes, 2011
All living organisms consist of soft matter. For this reason alone, it is important to be able to understand and predict the structural and dynamical properties of soft materials such as polymers, surfactants, colloids, granular matter and liquids ...

Skyrmion Bubbles by Design in a Centrosymmetric Kagome Magnet

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chemical tuning of magnetocrystalline anisotropy in the centrosymmetric kagome magnet TmMn6Sn6 is shown to drive a spin reorientation transition via an intermediate magnetic fan state and to stabilize an emergent skyrmion bubble lattice. Four‐dimensional cryogenic Lorentz scanning transmission electron microscopy confirms the nanoscale texture ...

Habitat‐Specific Design Strategies for Untethered Soft Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Habitat shapes the design of untethered soft robots. Across land, water, air, and living tissues, environmental constraints govern viable combinations of compliant structures, actuation mechanisms, and energy delivery. This review connects these constraints with robotic performance and identifies design principles for advancing adaptable, durable, and ...

Therapeutic Peptide‐Programmed Liquid‐Crystalline Topology Switching for pH‐Gated Postoperative Cancer Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A VDAP‐programmed liquid‐crystalline depot enables pH‐responsive postoperative immunotherapy for triple‐negative breast cancer. VDAP stabilizes a leakage‐resistant HII mesophase through peptide–lipid electrostatic assembly, whereas tumor acidosis unlocks the matrix and promotes graded topology remodeling toward a bicontinuous Im3̄m cubic phase for ...

Spontaneous unidirectional rotation of a symmetric gear driven by spherical active particles

open access: yesNational Science Open
Time reversal asymmetry and spatial anisotropy are considered two prerequisites for Brownian ratchet. An intriguing realization can be achieved by placing an asymmetric gear in the suspension of motile rod-like bacteria.
