The photo-controlled shift of pH titration curves, describing the acidochromic behaviour of a spiropyran switch network, was harnessed for the realisation of a molecular triode. The intricate network can be correctly interpreted with respect to the pH dependence of the main involved species.

A series of self-assembled mixed micelles composed of TPGS and Pluronics were fabricated and their cellular uptake and exocytosis behaviors were studied in 2D cell and 3D tumor spheroid models. Together with in vivo efficacy studies, our results demonstrate that TPGS is not only critical to stabilize the mixed micelle…

During cooling, considerable changes such as wrinkle formation and edge passivation occur in graphene synthesized on the Cu substrate. Wrinkle formation is caused by the difference in the thermal expansion coefficients of graphene and its substrate. This work emphasizes the cooling-induced edge passivation. The graphe…

Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are very important fluorescent nanocrystals with excellent optical properties. However, QDs, at the single-particle level, show severe fluorescence intermittency (or blinking) on a wide time scale from milliseconds to minutes, which limits certain optical and biological applications.

The study of perovskites has been active for a long time. Here, we rationally designed and prepared a double perovskite, LaBaZnSbO6, by selecting Zn(2+) and Sb(5+) with large size and charge differences, and, indeed, complete B-site ordering can be achieved. Careful study using powder X-ray diffraction data pinpointed…
