Nevertheless, the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) significantly attenuates the therapeutic efficacy of anti-tumor immune response, posing challenges in effectively preventing tumor recurrence and metastasis. Pyroptosis, a recently identified form of programmed cell death triggered by inflammasomes, presents unique inflammatory and immunogenic properties that hold promise for cancer immunotherapy. Herein, microwave-responsive AlEu-MOFs are designed and synthesized to boost NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis via a “Triple Initiating” tactic for breast cancer microwave-immunotherapy. The potent microwave thermal effect of AEM facilitates the up-regulation of HSP90, thereby initiating NLRP3 expression. Concurrently, it induces mitochondrial dysfunction to generate substantial quantities of ROS, further enhancing NLRP3 expression to achieve a targeted amplification of microwave thermotherapy-induced pyroptosis. Simultaneously, the microwave-responsive directed anchoring release of highly active metal ions promotes the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome jointly, ultimately inducing high-efficiency pyroptosis. This innovative “2M” (materials and methods) dual-pronged strategy not only significantly inhibits primary tumor proliferation, but also further impedes distant tumor progression and lung metastasis. This work provides a novel strategy to accurately and effectively achieve pyroptosis and offers a new approach to overcome the obstacles of clinical microwave thermotherapy.","PeriodicalId":228,"journal":{"name":"Small","volume":"118 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143927008","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials that combine multiple functionalities, such as semiconducting and piezoelectric properties, offer an excellent opportunity to harvest energy from multiple sources in a single device. As such, we report a hybrid energy harvester (HEH) combining a piezoelectric nanogenerator and a perovskite solar cell to simultaneously harvest mechanical and solar energy. The HEH exhibited the piezo-phototronic effect, where strain-induced shifts in the energy bands of ZnO nanorods modulated the photovoltaic (PV) output under mechanical deformation. The output of the HEH under light and oscillation conditions combined PV variations driven by the piezo-phototronic effect and piezoelectric signals generated by the ZnO nanorods. Furthermore, the piezoelectric output showed distinct variations between dark and illuminated conditions, attributed to differences in the electrical conductivity of ZnO and perovskite, which influenced charge screening. Additionally, morphological variations in ZnO nanorods were found to significantly impact performance. Overall, these findings provide guidance for optimizing nanostructures and device designs to enhance multi-source energy harvesting efficiency and further explore the piezo-phototronic effect.","PeriodicalId":394,"journal":{"name":"Nano Energy","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":17.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143927067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, iodides in perovskites are easily oxidized by oxygen, especially under light exposure, leading to reducing the shelf-life of precursor solutions and compromising perovskite films. Herein, we introduce sodium thiosulfate (ST) into perovskite inks to in-situ tailor the crystallization of perovskites and suppress oxidation of iodides. As expected, this ST strategy effectively suppresses the iodide oxidation, inhibits phase transition and separation, thereby obtaining high-quality perovskite films with enhanced high crystallinity and reduced non-radiative recombination. Interestingly, the shelf-life of precursor solutions was extended over 60 days, and no phase transition can be found in perovskite films under 60 days of 1 sun light exposure. As a result, the champion ST-treated device achieves a PCE of 25.25% with a minimal voltage deficit of 0.35 V. More importantly, the unencapsulated devices demonstrate excellent long-term storage, thermal and light-soaking stability, which deliver 93 %, 85 % and 85 % of their original efficiencies after ageing, respectively.

The materials design philosophy is successfully verified in a system mixing conventional austenitic stainless steel and ferritic steel powder and consolidating it by hot isostatic pressing. Significant strengthening and work hardenability are achieved at no expense of ductility compared to the ferrite and austenite on their own. Such extraordinary strength-ductility synergy is attributed to the well-architected compositional gradients across different phases resulting in soft and hard regions at the scale of the original powder without sharp interfaces. Accordingly, plasticity progresses from soft to hard regions during mechanical loading, which is the key to mitigating the deformation incompatibility and enabling remarkable ductility.
