Here synergistic engineering of GaS–WSe<sub>2</sub> all-vdW photodiodes is investigated, which exhibit broadband detection (275–1064 nm), multispectral unity approaching linearity, alongside a substantial linear dynamic range (LDR) of 106.78 dB. Additionally, the photodiodes achieve a remarkable on/off ratio of 10<sup>5</sup> and rapid response edges of 545/471 µs under a 405 nm pulsed source, exhibiting ultralow light detection capabilities (dark currents ∼fA), culminating in a peak responsivity of 376.78 mA W<sup>−1</sup> and a detectivity of 4.12 × 10¹¹ Jones under 450 nm illumination, complemented by an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 30% and a fill factor of ≈0.33. Based on the analysis of multiple all-vdW devices, the importance of Fermi-level pinning free metal–2D interface engineering that enables effective modulation of the Schottky barrier height via vdW metal contacts is highlighted and meticulous thickness-engineered layers in developing a robust depletion region within the type-II GaS–WSe<sub>2</sub> heterojunction are employed, ultimately achieving a favorable balance among photocarrier generation recombination, separation, transport, and extraction. This comprehensive investigation sets the stage for future developments in critically engineered next-generation vdW optoelectronic devices.","PeriodicalId":228,"journal":{"name":"Small","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143678320","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}

However, the state-of-the-art electrolytes for Li-ion batteries cannot meet the high-voltage stability requirement for high-voltage DRX cathodes, thus new electrolytes are urgently demanded. It has been reported that the solvation structures and properties of the electrolytes critically influence the performance and stability of the batteries. In this study, the structure–property relationships of various electrolytes with different solvent-to-diluent ratios are systematically investigated through a combination of theoretical calculations and experimental tests and analyses.

However, their intrinsic van der Waals gaps result in weak interlayer interactions that destabilize the layered motifs impacting the stability of the X-ray detector. Thus, it is crucial but remains toughly challenge to enhance interlayer interactions exploring stable RP perovskite ferroelectric X-ray detectors. Here, halogen bond is proposed to enhance the interlayer interactions of RP perovskite ferroelectrics obtaining a 2D trilayered ferroelectric, (BrPA)<sub>2</sub>(EA)<sub>2</sub>Pb<sub>3</sub>Br<sub>10</sub> (<b>BEPB</b>, BrPA = 3-bromopropylaminium; EA = ethylammonium). Strikingly, the strong Br···Br halogen bonds lock cations to the inorganic skeletons, and C─H···Br hydrogen bonds bridge adjacent spacing sheets, which effectively improves structural stability and suppresses ion migration. The typical <i>P-E</i> hysteresis loops reveal its concrete ferroelectric behaviors, giving a large polarization of ≈7.3 µC cm<sup>−2</sup>. Consequently, the <b>BEPB</b>-based X-ray detector results in a high sensitivity of 562.6 µC Gy<sup>−1</sup> cm<sup>−2</sup> at 0 V bias, and most importantly, it exhibits low baseline drift and exceptional environmental stability.

However, this approach conflicts with structural coloration designs for vibrant hues, which use ordered and uniform nanostructures. This structural discrepancy presents a challenge when trying to incorporate white and black alongside other colors in dynamic structural colors. Herein, a dynamic reflective coloration strategy is demonstrated, capable of switching between white, black, and other hues from ordered nanostructures. This is accomplished by exploiting reversible Cu electrodeposition within the slits of a nanograting and observing its cross‐polarized reflection, resolving colors from the grating birefringence. By electrochemically modulating the Cu thickness, birefringence is selectively activated, mixed, and eliminated from photonic (Rayleigh‐Wood) and near‐plasmonic resonances, producing blue, orange, white, and black colors. These results offer a pathway to dynamic white and black structural coloration compatible with ordered nanostructures.","PeriodicalId":228,"journal":{"name":"Small","volume":"88 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143677872","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}

Ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations reveal that the diffusion coefficient of Ca<sup>2</sup>⁺ is higher than that of Zn<sup>2+</sup>, leading to the preferential extraction of Ca<sup>2</sup>⁺. The extracted Ca<sup>2</sup>⁺ readily forms a dense cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) with SO₄<sup>2</sup><sup>−</sup> on the electrode surface, effectively mitigating electrode dissolution. Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicate that the incorporation of Ca<sup>2</sup>⁺ lowers the diffusion energy barrier for Zn<sup>2</sup>⁺, facilitating its diffusion. Additionally, PA insertion stabilizes the interlayer spacing of V<sub>6</sub>O<sub>13</sub>, and its strong chelating ability stabilizes the structure by preventing collapse during cycling. Experimental validation through a one-step solvothermal method confirms these theoretical predictions.

Recently, copper single‐atom nanozymes (SAZ) have gained tremendous attention due to its superior peroxidase (POD) activity that has good nonocatalytic tumor therapy (NCT) capabilities, and photothermal properties. Therefore, using a high‐expressing P‐selectin platelet membrane (PM) to encapsulate SAZ and cisplatin is proposed, forming PSC nanoparticles. Due to their exquisite nanoscale size and the unique structure of lymphatic vessels, PSC can highly target cancer cells in invasive primary tumors and metastatic lymph nodes that both highly express CD44. It is noteworthy that cisplatin can simultaneously perform chemotherapy and generate H₂O₂ under the action of NADPH oxidases (NOXs) that further enhance the catalytic activity of SAZ and increase intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Both in vitro and vivo experiments have demonstrated the superior targeting and elimination capability of the PCS system in primary and metastatic tumor cells. In addition, transcriptomic analysis reveals that PSC + NIR induced apoptosis in MFC cells. This marks the first proposal of combining single‐atom nanozymes and chemotherapy drugs for dual‐targeting in gastric cancer and lymphatic metastasis, providing new insights into a challenging clinical issue in the treatment of gastric cancer lymphatic metastasis.","PeriodicalId":228,"journal":{"name":"Small","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143677829","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}
