Polyoxometalate-incorporated metal–organic frameworks as electrochemical sensors for ascorbic acid, dopamine and uric acid

Abstract Real-time analysis of small-molecule metabolites such as ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA), and uric acid (UA) is valuable for investigating biological systems and supporting disease diagnosis. As a representative metal-organic framework (MOF), MIL-101(Cr) combines stron...

A Reversibly Cross‐Linked Network Enables Spider‐Silk‐Like Strain‐Adaptive Mechanical Behavior and Low‐Temperature Tolerance in Artificial Fibers

ABSTRACT Replicating spider‐silk‐like strain‐adaptive mechanical behavior remains challenging because elasticity, rapid stiffening, and energy dissipation must be sequentially activated across distinct deformation regimes. Here, we reproduce this behavior in reversibly cross‐link...

Electrochemical Solubility Switching Enables Lateral Etching Toward Sub‐20 nm Nanopatterning

The miniaturization of patterns to sub-20 nm dimensions remains challenging, owing to the fundamental constraints of optical patterning and the increasing complexity and cost of advanced lithographic technologies such as extreme-ultraviolet lithography. Here, we introduce an elec...

Hydrophobic Microphase Separation‐Driven Polycondensation and Carbonization for the Formation of Carbonized Polymer Dots

ABSTRACT Hydrothermal synthesis has been widely used to prepare carbonized polymer dots (CPDs) in a one‐pot manner, yet how initial precursors evolve into nanoparticles in water‐rich environments remains poorly understood. Here, hydrophobic microphase separation is identified as...

A Superstrong and Ultratough Stretchable Electronic Conductor With Ultradurable Strain‐Insensitive Electromechanical Performance

ABSTRACT Developing high‐performance stretchable electronic conductors (SECs) is vital for advancing soft electronics and robotics. However, existing SECs still suffer from limited mechanical robustness and vulnerable conductive pathways, undermining their electromechanical stabi...

Visualized self-propelled nanorobots overcome tumor barriers for boosted photothermal-nanocatalytic synergistic therapy against triple-negative breast cancer

Conventional nanozyme-based therapeutics for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) are severely hindered by insufficient tumor penetration and lysosomal degradation-induced enzyme inactivation, crippling therapeutic efficacy. Herein, we rationally construct visualized dual-propell...

Controlling the Dynamic Conversion Process of the Water Molecules on the Electrolyte Interface for Producing Free Water

ABSTRACT Proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is a highly promising green hydrogen production method and technology, and it is also one of the important means for scientists and engineers to achieve carbon reduction, carbon emission, and carbon neutrality. Years of...

Manipulation of Molecular Motion in Donor‐Acceptor Organic‐Small‐Molecule towards Efficient Solar‐Thermal Conversion and Electroluminescence Performance

ABSTRACT Radiative decay invariably competes with nonradiative decay during the deexcitation process of materials, organic small molecules with highly efficient solar‐thermal and electroluminescence properties simultaneously remain a great challenge. Herein, we propose a novel st...

Skeletal‐Muscle‐Inspired Superstrong Dynamic Covalent Liquid‐Crystal Elastomers With Exceptional Actuation Performance

ABSTRACT As an emerging actuator material for artificial muscles and soft robotics, dynamic covalent liquid‐crystal elastomers (DCv‐LCEs) enable network reorganization through dynamic bond exchange, allowing actuator reprogramming, actuation‐mode tuning, and material recycling. D...

MMAllo: a multimodal deep learning framework and GaMD simulations for predicting protein allosteric sites and allosteric mutations

Allosteric regulation, whereby small molecules or mutations modulate protein function from sites distal to the orthosteric active site, is a pervasive mechanism of biological control and an important opportunity for drug discovery. Yet the prospective identification of allosteric...

Heterocyclic Nanographenes Doped with Boron and Phosphorus: Post‐Phosphorization Synthesis, Excited‐State Dynamics and Ion‐Responsive Properties

ABSTRACT Incorporating more than one kind of heteroatom into polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is a powerful method for achieving diversiform heterocyclic structures and desirable physical properties. Herein, we disclose precise post‐phosphorization of conjugated organoboranes, wh...

Sustainable ammonia synthesis from nitrate wastewater via graphdiyne Mo–Cu–C≡C interfaces

Electrochemical green ammonia (NH3) production using renewable electricity is sustainable but suffers from selectivity-activity-stability trade-off under industrial conditions. Here we report an atomic interface engineering strategy enabling in-situ assembly and coupling of hexae...
