Promote Intratumoral Drug Release and Penetration to Counteract Docetaxel-Induced Metastasis by Photosensitizer-Modified Red Blood Cell Membrane-Coated Nanoparticle

The red blood cell membrane (RBCm) provides tight protection, lowers the immunogenicity, and prolongs the circulation time of drugs in vivo when acting as the coating of drug delivery systems. However, the cellular uptake and release of drugs are hindered by RBCm. Docetaxel (DTX) is the first-line medicine for treating triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), but it induces tumor metastasis. To solve these dilemmas, in this study, the photosensitizer 1,1-dioctadecyl-3,3,3,3-tetramethylindotricarbocyanine iodide (DiR)-modified RBCm (DM) is prepared, which is coated onto a hybrid micelle consisting of the prodrugs of DTX and the anti-metastasis agent calcitriol (CTL), obtaining a nanoparticle, named HDC-DM. In a 4T1 tumor-bearing mouse model, after injecting HDC-DM, the intratumoral DTX and CTL concentrations are increased by 1.7 and 2.5 times compared with the free drug groups. After irradiating tumors with near-infrared laser, DiR elicits the photothermal effect, triggering the rupture of RBCm and drug release, promoting drug penetration in tumors, and inducing immunogenic cell death. The tumor growth inhibition rate is 77%, and the formation of lung metastases is reduced by 82%, with good biocompatibility. It is suggested that the combination of phototherapy, chemotherapy, and anti-metastatic therapy using HDC-DM is expected to be a powerful strategy for treating TNBC.     

High-Resolution and Stable Ruddlesden–Popper Quasi-2D Perovskite Flexible Photodetectors Arrays for Potential Applications as Optical Image Sensor

The development of an efficient fabrication route to achieve high-resolution perovskite pixel array is key for large-scale flexible image sensor devices. Herein, a high-resolution and stable 10 × 10 flexible PDs array based on formamidinium(FA⁺) and phenylmethylammonium (PMA⁺) quasi-2D (PMA)₂FAPb₂I₇ (n = 2) perovskite is demonstrated by developing SiO₂-assisted hydrophobic and hydrophilic treatment process on polyethylene terephthalate substrate. By introducing Au nanoparticles (Au NPs),  the perovskite film quality is improved and grain boundaries are reduced. The mechanism by which Au NPs upgrade the photoelectric quality of perovskite is mainly revealed by glow discharge-optical emission spectroscopy (GD-OES) and grazing-incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering (GIWAXS). To further improve the photoelectric performance of the devices, a post-treatment strategy with formamidinium chloride (FACl) is used . The optimized flexible PDs arrays show excellent optoelectronic properties with a high responsivity of 4.7 A W⁻¹, a detectivity of 6.3 × 10¹² Jones, and a broad spectral sensitivity. The device also exhibits excellent electrical stability even under severe bending and excellent flexural strength, as well as excellent environmental stability. Finally, the integrated flexible PDs arrays are used as sensor pixels in an imaging system to obtain high-resolution imaging patterns, demonstrating the imaging capability of the PDs arrays.     

Critical Review of Fluorinated Electrolytes for High-Performance Lithium Metal Batteries

Lithium metal batteries (LMBs), due to their ultra-high energy density, are attracting tremendous attentions. However, their commercial application is severely impeded by poor safety and unsatisfactory cycling stability, which are induced by lithium dendrites, side reactions, and inferior anodic stability. Electrolytes, as the indispensable and necessary components in lithium metal batteries, play a crucial role in regulating the electrochemical performance of LMBs. Recently, the fluorinated electrolytes are widely investigated in high-performance LMBs. Thus, the design strategies of fluorinated electrolytes are thoroughly summarized, including fluorinated salts, fluorinated solvents, and fluorinated additives in LMBs, and insights of the fluorinated components in suppressing lithium dendrites, improving anodic stability and cycling stability. Finally, an outlook with several design strategies and challenges will be proposed for novel fluorinated electrolytes.     

Dual-band reflective polarization converter based on metasurface

In this paper, a dual-band and reflective polarization converter based on metasurface is proposed. Its unit cell is composed of two layers of metal plates separated by a dielectric substrate. The simulation results show that the proposed converter is able to convert x- or y-polarized incident waves into cross-polarized waves perfectly in frequency bands of 6.75—10.59 GHz and 17.78—19.61 GHz, and the polarization conversion ratio (PCR) is nearly 100%, which can also convert linearly polarized waves into circularly polarized waves at four frequencies. It can be widely used in applications of radar satellites, antenna design and telecommunication with the function of realizing polarization conversion in two bands and achieving high PCR simultaneously.     

Structural, electrochemical and cycling properties of Nb5+ doped LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 cathode materials at different calcination temperatures for lithium-ion batteries

LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 cathode material is prepared by sol-gel method and the effects of Nb5+ doping and different calcination temperatures on cathode materials were deeply investigated. Structural and morphological characterizations revealed that the optimal content of 1 mol% Nb5+ can stabilize layered structures, mitigate Ni2+ migration to Li layers, improve lithium diffusion capacity, and reduce lattice expansion/shrinkage while cycling. And calcination temperature at 800 °C can not only ensure good morphology, but also suppress the mixed discharge of lithium and nickel in the internal structure. Electrochemical performance evaluation revealed that Nb5+ doping improves the discharge-specific capacity of the material, which is conducive to ameliorating its rate capability and cycle performance. And the material at 800 °C exhibits the highest discharge specific capacity, the best magnification performance, low polarizability, and the best cycle reversibility.     

Nanocellulose-Carboxymethylcellulose Electrolyte for Stable,High-Rate Zinc-Ion Batteries

Aqueous Zn ion batteries (ZIBs) are one of the most promising battery chemistries for grid-scale renewable energy storage. However, their application is limited by issues such as Zn dendrite formation and undesirable side reactions that can occur in the presence of excess free water molecules and ions. In this study, a nanocellulose-carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) hydrogel electrolyte is demonstrated that features stable cycling performance and high Zn²⁺ conductivity (26 mS cm⁻¹), which is attributed to the material's strong mechanical strength (≈70 MPa) and water-bonding ability. With this electrolyte, the Zn-metal anode shows exceptional cycling stability at an ultra-high rate, with the ability to sustain a current density as high as 80 mA cm⁻² for more than 3500 cycles and a cumulative capacity of 17.6 Ah cm⁻² (40 mA cm⁻²). Additionally, side reactions, such as hydrogen evolution and surface passivation, are substantially reduced due to the strong water-bonding capacity of the CMC. Full Zn||MnO₂ batteries fabricated with this electrolyte demonstrate excellent high-rate performance and long-term cycling stability (>500 cycles at 8C). These results suggest the cellulose-CMC electrolyte as a promising low-cost, easy-to-fabricate, and sustainable aqueous-based electrolyte for ZIBs with excellent electrochemical performance that can help pave the way toward grid-scale energy storage for renewable energy sources.     

Weak signal detection and adaptive synchronous stability of a novel fifth-order memristive circuit system

This paper is devoted to introduce a novel complex fifth-order memristive circuit system and its applications in synchronous stability and weak signal detection. Firstly, the typical dynamical behaviors of the memristive system are discussed by chaotic phase portrait, complexity analysis, one-parameter bifurcation and Lyapunov exponent spectrum. Secondly, the adaptive control method is applied to realize the synchronization between the drive memristive system (DMS) and the response memristive system (RMS). The results indicate that the synchronization method has strong robustness and anti-interference ability. Thirdly, the weak signal detection of the novel five-dimensional memristive system is realized by using the extreme sensitivity of chaotic system to initial values. Finally, the fifth-order memristive circuit is designed by using basic electronic elements and simulated by Multisim software. And the anti-interference ability and sensitivity of the fifth-order memristive circuit are further verified by adding different weak disturbance signals at different positions of the circuit.
