Conventional approaches typically adjust the conduction band of the acceptor. In this study, we present a novel strategy for precisely controlling electron trapping and trapped carrier lifetime in PM-OPDs. We synthesized a series of nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs) by modifying the ratio of conducting and insulating components in the conjugated molecular structure. By enhancing the insulating properties of the NFAs, we slowed both electron trapping and de-trapping processes. This resulted in fine-tuned trapped carrier lifetime (280-581 ms), trapped carrier density (2.04-13.4 × 1017 cm-3), and Schottky barrier height (0.334-0.229 eV) under illumination. Higher concentrations of trapped electrons accumulated at the P3HT/Al interface, leading to a thinner Schottky barrier, reduced depletion region, and enhanced band bending, improving hole injection from the cathode. Among the NFAs, A-BTP-DT, with the highest insulating properties, exhibited superior PM effects, achieving a maximum external quantum efficiency of 7520% at -10 V (compared to 564% for the Y6-based device). This work represents the first successful demonstration of fine-tuning of electron trapping and PM effects, not by adjusting energy levels, but by modifying the insulating properties.","PeriodicalId":87,"journal":{"name":"Materials Horizons","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144782961","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}

These surface-conformal films must deliver high chromatic performance while accommodating geometrical flexibility. Crucially, applications such as hidden displays and directional visual cues require distinct color outputs depending on viewing direction or polarization state. To meet this need, we present a flexible, surface-conformal dual-mode spectral-coded color film (DS-CF) that enables independent control over transmitted and reflected colors. By integrating two resonators within a multilayer thin-film structure, the DS-CF leverages both Lorentzian and Fano-type resonances to realize programmable bi-directional coloration. This design overcomes the limitations of conventional dyes and photonic structures that inherently couple transmission and reflection responses. A painting-inspired demonstration validates the vivid and high-purity color expression in both transmission (≈75%) and reflection (≈41%). Additionally, polarization-sensitive reflectance control is achieved by tailoring the deposition angle of the lossy layer. With scalable fabrication and mechanical flexibility, the DS-CF offers a versatile platform for multifunctional optical films in anti-counterfeit labeling, hidden displays, and adaptive camouflage technologies.","PeriodicalId":87,"journal":{"name":"Materials Horizons","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144774359","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}

More importantly, the adsorption properties are correlated with the crystal symmetry of adsorbents: both the adsorption capacity and rate constant of LYH-Cl (orthorhombic P21212 space group) are almost twice of those of LYH-Br (monoclinic P21 space group). A comprehensive study combining multinuclear solid-state NMR spectroscopy and other multiscale characterization techniques was then performed to understand the origin of the symmetry-related adsorption behaviors. The results reveal an increasing trend of change in local environments of Y(OH)7·H2O, Y(OH)8·H2O, and Y(OH)8, implying that the adsorbed nitrate anions are located within the pocket constructed by alternating Y(OH)8·H2O and Y(OH)8. The splitting of the 89Y NMR peak of Y(OH)8·H2O of LYH-Cl after adsorption is consistent with the reduction of crystal symmetry from P21212 to its translationengleiche subgroup P2, providing an additional driving force for nitrate capture. This work thus not only discovers a nitrate adsorbent with a superior capacity of 44.56 ± 0.17 mg g-1, but also demonstrates a new concept of symmetry-driven adsorption enhancement.","PeriodicalId":87,"journal":{"name":"Materials Horizons","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144774360","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}

Such an out-of-plane redistribution of stresses results in nearly stress-free tops of the microprotrusions, allowing the coating to be virtually intact even after 5000 stretch-release cycles. Furthermore, through systematic experiments and theoretical analysis, we studied the influence of elongation on contact angles, sliding angles and breakthrough pressures on our hyperelastic superomniphobic surfaces.

However, suboptimal targeting efficiency to dendritic cells (DCs) and inadequate antigen presentation by metabolically dysfunctional DCs significantly hinder vaccination efficacy. In vitro drug screening reveals that lovastatin (Lov) effectively inhibits antigen degradation in DCs by modulating the mevalonate (MVA) pathway, thereby enhancing antigen presentation. Additionally, tumor-derived water-insoluble neoantigens contain abundant immunogenic mutated components but suffer from limited vaccination efficiency. Based on these findings, a metabolic regulatory nanovaccine (DAL) with excellent lymph node targeting capacity is developed through the self-assembly of dextran derivatives, water-insoluble neoantigens, and Lov to stimulate robust antitumor immunity. DAL effectively targets DCs in lymph nodes, inhibits the MVA pathway to enhance antigen presentation, and promotes cytotoxic T cell infiltration, thereby facilitating long-term immune surveillance. In vivo experiments demonstrate that DAL inhibits tumorigenesis, attenuates tumor progression, and enhances the efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. Collectively, this work provides a metabolic regulatory strategy for tumor vaccination, offering a potential approach to develop personalized vaccines for tumor immunotherapy.","PeriodicalId":87,"journal":{"name":"Materials Horizons","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144758674","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}
