Optical interrogation of cellular electrical activity has proven itself essential for understanding cellular function and communication in complex networks. Voltage-sensitive dyes are important tools for assessing excitability but these highly lipophilic sensors may affect cellular function. Label-free techniques offer a major advantage as they eli...

We describe the outcome of a large international interlaboratory study of the measurement of particle number concentration of colloidal nanoparticles, project 10 of the technical working area 34, "Nanoparticle Populations" of the Versailles Project on Advanced Materials and Standards (VAMAS). A total of 50 laboratories delivered results for the num...

The terahertz (0.1–10 THz) range represents a fast-evolving research and industrial field. The great interest for this portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, which lies between the photonics and the electronics ranges, stems from the unique and disruptive sectors where this radiation finds applications in, such as spectroscopy, quantum electronic...

Nanoparticles (NPs)-based cancer therapeutics is generally impeded by poor drug penetration into solid tumors due to their dense tumor extracellular matrix (ECM). Herein, we develop pH/redox-responsive dendritic polymer-based NPs to amplify the neighboring effect for improving drug penetration and driving cell apoptosis via combination therapy. Pyr...

Non-precious iron-based catalysts (Fe-NCs) require high active site density (SD) to meet the performance targets as cathode catalysts in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). SD is generally limited to that achieved at 1-3 wt%(Fe) loading due to the undesired formation of iron-containing nanoparticles at higher loadings. Here we show that b...

The development of aqueous rechargeable zinc-iodine (Zn-I2 ) batteries is still plagued by the polyiodide shuttle issue, which frequently causes batteries to have inadequate cycle lifetimes. In this study, quaternization engineering based on the concept of "electric double layer" is developed on a commercial acrylic fiber skeleton ($1.55-1.7 kg-1 )...

Advancements in understanding and engineering of virus-based nanomaterials (VBNs) for biomedical applications motivate a need to explore the interfaces between VBNs and other biomedically-relevant chemistries and materials. While several strategies have been used to investigate some of these interfaces with promising initial results, including VBN-...

Recently discovered magnetic van der Waals (vdW) materials provide an ideal platform to explore low-dimensional magnetism and spin transport. Its vdW interaction nature opens up unprecedented opportunities to build vertically stacked heterostructures with novel properties and functionalities. By engineering the planar structure as an alternative de...

Metal-organic species can be designed to self-assemble in large-scale, atomically defined, supramolecular architectures. A particular example is hybrid quantum wells, where inorganic two-dimensional (2D) planes are separated by organic ligands. The ligands effectively form an intralayer confinement for charge carriers resulting in a 2D electronic s...

Recent efforts in the field of organic photodetectors (OPD) have been focused on extending broadband detection into the near-infrared (NIR) region. Here, two blends of an ultralow bandgap push–pull polymer TQ-T combined with state-of-the-art non-fullerene acceptors, IEICO-4F and Y6, are compared to obtain OPDs for sensing in the NIR beyond 1100 nm,...
