Abstract The combination of nonsolvent‐induced phase separation and the self‐assembly of block copolymers can lead to asymmetric membranes with a thin highly ordered isoporous skin layer. The effective pore size of such membranes is usually larger than 15 nm. We reduced the pore size of these membranes by electroless…

Recently, methotrexate (MTX) has been used to target to folate (FA) receptor-overexpressing cancer cells for targeted drug delivery. However, the systematic evaluation of MTX as a Janus-like agent has not been reported before. Here, we explored the validity of using MTX playing an early-phase cancer-specific targeting…

Microbatteries are currently the best choice to power microelecronic devices. To maximize both energy density and power density of microbatteries within the areal footprint, the three-dimensional (3D) microbattery architectures have been proposed, comprising a 3D matrix of components (cathode, anode and electrolyte) a…
