Solar desalination technology has garnered considerable attention due to its eco-friendliness, sustainability, and cost-efficiency; however, its practical application is impeded by the drawback of low water yield. To address this challenge, we present a reticulated carpet shark-inspired thermo-responsive pur

Halide perovskites have been considered as promising thermoelectric materials due to their unusual combination of good charge mobility and ultralow thermal conductivity. Low dimensional halide perovsk...

Near-infrared (NIR) emitting materials underpin emerging medical diagnostics and therapeutic bionanotechnologies. Conjugated polymer nanoparticles offer unique advantages due to their remarkable absorption cross-sections, photostability, synthetic tunability, and biocompatibility. Despite the vast library of NIR-ab

To improve the binding energy of hydrogen, incorporation of internally polarized organic units into metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) should be a promising strategy. In this study, two novel MOFs compos...

A series of phenothiazine-based hypercrosslinked p-type porous polymers were synthesized via a knitting polymerization method, incorporating increasing amounts of benzene as a co-monomer for a systema...

Li-rich cathodes are gaining popularity for Li-ion batteries due to their higher capacity compared to standard layered cathodes. However, the redox mechanisms in these materials are still not clear, n...

Light is often the stimulus of choice for dynamically changing structure and function in materials and other contexts, including not only many smart materials and photovoltaics, but also biological an...
