Timely clearance of myelin debris is the premise of neuroinflammation termination and tissue regeneration in multiple sclerosis (MS). Microglia are the main scavengers of myelin debris in MS lesions, but its phagocytic capability is limited in MS patients. Here, we develop neutrophil-derived nanovesicles (NNVs) to enhance the efficiency of myelin d...

Boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) possess a broad range of applications because of several engineering-relevant properties, including high specific strength and stiffness, thermal stability, and transparency to visible light. The morphology of these nanoscale fibers must be controlled to maximize such properties, which can be achieved by synthesizing...

Colloidal nanoplatelets (NPLs) are promising materials for lasing applications. The properties are usually discussed in the framework of 2D materials, where strong excitonic effects dominate the optical properties near the band edge. At the same time, NPLs have finite lateral dimensions such that NPLs are not true extended 2D structures. Here we st...

Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are instrumental for fabrication of tailored nanomagnetic structures, especially where top-down lithographic patterning is not feasible. Here, we demonstrate precise and controllable manipulation of individual magnetite MNPs using the tip of an atomic force microscope. We verify our approach by placing a single MNP wit...

Complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) silicon sensors play a central role in optoelectronics with widespread applications from small cell phone cameras to large-format imagers for remote sensing. Despite numerous advantages, their sensing ranges are limited within the visible (0.4-0.7 μm) and near-infrared (0.8-1.1 μm) range , defined by t...

Cocrystals containing distinct atom-precise metal nanoclusters (NCs) provide an opportunity to elucidate the crystallization process, architectural complexity, and newly emerging properties of condensed-state metal NC-assembled materials. However, the controllable preparation of such cocrystals is still challenging. Herein, we present a modular str...
