6%). We were also able to monitor the accumulation and metabolism of CN-NPs in vivo of mice in real time using PAI. The in vivo experiments proved that the CN-NPs could inhibit tumor growth and recurrence completely under 1064 nm. Thus, the proposed innovative strategy would open a new avenue to explore and construct NIR-II responsive nanoplatforms with enhanced performance and safety for multimodal phototheranostics.Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanoflakes are widely used as nano-additives in oil for the excellent lubrication performance. However, the molecular mechanism of MoS2 nanoflakes in oil governing the friction properties remains elusive. In this study, MoS2 homojunctions were constructed by combining the fabricated MoS2 probe and MoS2 crystal with an atomic force microscope (AFM), and the superlubricity with an ultralow friction coefficient of approximately 0.003 at MoS2 homojunctions was attained after the formation of a confined oil layer, exhibiting a 67% reduction of the friction coefficient in comparison to that under a nitrogen atmosphere. The boundary slip of oil molecules on the MoS2 crystal with a small energy barrier was observed, causing the shear to occur at the interface of oil/MoS2 crystal with an extremely low shear strength, which contributes to the achievement of superlubricity. This boundary slip of oil molecules at MoS2 homojunctions can be extended to the macroscale for friction reduction, supplying a fundamental insight into the lubrication mechanism of MoS2 nanoflakes in oil, which has potential applications for designing an efficient lubrication system with nano-additives.The emergence of 2D electrically conductive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has significantly expanded the scope of metal-organic framework applications from electrochemical energy storage to electronic devices. However, their potentials are not fully exploited due to limited accessibility to internal pores in stacked 2D structures. Herein we transform a 2D conjugated MOF into a 3D framework via postsynthetic pillar-ligand insertion. Cu-THQ was chosen due to its ability to adopt additional ligands at the axial positions at the copper nodes. Cu-THQ demonstrates that structural augmentation increases ion accessibility into internal pores, resulting in an increased gravimetric capacitance up to double that of the pristine counterpart. Beyond this, we believe that our findings can further be used to functionalize the existing 2D conductive MOFs to offer more opportunities in sensing, electronic, and energy-related applications by utilizing additional functions and increased accessibility from the pillars.Engineering energy transfer (ET) plays an important role in the exploration of novel optoelectronic devices. The efficient ET has been reasonably regulated using different strategies, such as dielectric properties, distance, and stacking angle. However, these strategies show limited degrees of freedom in regulation. Defects can provide more degrees of freedom, such as the type and density of defects. Herein, atomic-scale defect-accelerated ET is directly observed in MoS2/hBN/WS2 heterostructures by fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy. Sulfur vacancies with different densities are introduced by controlling the oxygen plasma irradiation time. Our study shows that the ET rate can be increased from 1.25 to 6.58 ns-1 by accurately controlling the defect density. Also, the corresponding ET time is shortened from 0.80 to 0.15 ns, attributing to the participation of more neutral excitons in the ET process. These neutral excitons are transformed from trion excitons in MoS2, assisted by oxygen substitution at sulfur vacancies. Our insights not only help us better understand the role of defects in the ET process but also provide a new approach to engineer ET for further exploration of novel optoelectronic devices in van der Waals heterostructures.To achieve large electrostrain and low hysteresis, we further optimized a morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) by modulating its local polar symmetries. The construction of a morphotropic relaxor boundary (MRB) in thin films can be achieved by suitable introduction of Bi(Fe0.95Mn0.03Ti0.02)O3 into (Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3-SrTiO3 to form a solid solution. The designed thin film achieves surprising piezoelectric properties with an inverse piezoelectric coefficient of 179.7 pm V-1 and negligible hysteresis. The composition of two relaxors with different local polar symmetries (tetragonal nanoregions and rhombohedral nanoregions), namely, an MRB, and the coexistence of multiscale domain structures can greatly weaken the anisotropy of polarization, degrade the energy barrier, attenuate the discontinuity of polarization, and achieve a large electrostrain and low hysteresis. The domain dynamics of the PNRs under the action of an external excitation field are analyzed to clarify the enhancement mechanism. This construction of MRBs is feasible for producing lead-free piezoelectric films with high-voltage electrical properties and low hysteresis, and various experimental design and theoretical references are provided.Oleylamine and oleic acid are common organic capping ligands used in the hot injection preparation of perovskite quantum dots (QDs). Their labile nature is responsible for the poor colloidal stability and conductivity that affect the performance of perovskite QD light-emitting diodes (LEDs). We introduced 4-trifluoro phenethylammonium iodide (CF3PEAI) directly in the synthesis and found that CF3PEAI efficiently modified the I- vacancy defects on the QD surface and partially substituted the surface capping ligand oleylamine. The strong electron pulling ability of F in CF3PEAI results in a more positive -NH3+ terminal compared to that of PEAI, which promotes tight bonding of CF3PEAI on the surface of CsPbI3 QDs. As a result, we achieved bright QDs with a photoluminescence quantum yield of 92% and efficient red LEDs. The maximal luminance was improved to 4550 cd m-2 for 685 nm red light, which was nearly 4.6-fold of the LEDs with plain CsPbI3 QDs. Additionally, the peak external quantum efficiency reached 12.5%.Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) hold great potential in various applications because of their well-defined pore structures and morphologies. However, most COF materials demonstrate poor dispersibility in solvents that significantly limits their processing and applications. Herein, we report the synthesis of COF-based hollow nanoparticles (h-NPs) with good water dispersibility, high capacity, and thermal responsiveness to load essential oil molecules for longer-term preservation of fruits. Imine-based COF h-NPs possessing a pore width of 1.3 nm, inner/outer diameters of ∼150/239 nm, and high crystallinity were synthesized and grafted with water-soluble polymers such as polyethylene glycol or poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) with molecular weights of 1-3 kDa. ESI-09 The h-NP products with grafting densities of 0.6-2.1 nm-2 can be well dispersed in water at room temperature. PNIPAM-grafted ones are temperature-responsive in that they can precipitate out from the dispersion at 40 °C and redisperse at 25 °C for at least 15 cycles. The h-NPs are used as nanocarriers to load essential oils such as hexanal and trans-2-hexenal with a high capacity of 1.1 g/g for fruit fresh-keeping, and the encapsulated preservatives can be released controllably at 25-40 °C as regulated by the grafted polymers. As a result, the storage time of cherry tomatoes can be prolonged by 4 days compared to the control run. Moreover, these h-NPs can be recycled and reused. Our work highlights the potential of COF nanomaterials grafting with stimuli-responsive polymers for controlled release application in various food preservation.Acyl-coenzyme A derivatives (acyl-CoAs) are core molecules in the fatty acid and energy metabolism across all species. However, in vivo, many other carboxylic acids can form xenobiotic acyl-CoA esters, including drugs. More than 2467 acyl-CoAs are known from the published literature. In addition, more than 300 acyl-CoAs are covered in pathway databases, but as of October 2020, only 53 experimental acyl-CoA tandem mass spectra are present in NIST20 and MoNA libraries to enable annotation of the mass spectra in untargeted metabolomics studies. The experimental spectra originated from low-resolution ion trap and triple quadrupole mass spectrometers as well as high-resolution quadrupole-time of flight and orbital ion trap instruments at various collision energies. We used MassFrontier software and the literature to annotate fragment ions to generate fragmentation rules and intensities for the different instruments and collision energies. These rules were then applied to 1562 unique species based on [M+H]+ and [M-H]- precursor ions to generate two mass spectra per instrument platform and collision energy, amassing an in silico library of 10,934 accurate mass MS/MS spectra that are freely available at github.com/urikeshet/CoA-Blast. The spectra can be imported into a commercial or freely available mass spectral search tool. We used the libraries to annotate 23 acyl-CoA esters in mouse liver, including 8 novel species.Rechargeable batteries employing aqueous electrolytes are more reliable and cost-effective as well as possess high ionic conductivity compared to the flammable organic electrolyte solutions. Among these types of batteries, aqueous batteries with multivalent ions attract more attention in terms of providing high energy density. Herein, electrochemical behavior of an organic electrode based on a highly aromatic polymer containing 2,3-diaminophenazine repeating unit, namely poly(ortho-phenylenediamine) (PoPD), is tested in two different multivalent ions (Zn2+ and Al3+) containing aqueous electrolytes, that is, in zinc sulfate and aluminum chloride solutions. PoPD is synthesized via electropolymerization, and its ion transport and storage mechanism are comprehensively investigated by structural and electrochemical analyses. The electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance, time-dependent Fourier transform infrared, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analyses as well as ex situ X-ray diffraction observations established that along with the Zn2+ or Al3+ ions, reversible proton insertion/extraction also takes place. Contrary to the most of the organic electrodes that requires the use of conductive carbon additives, the electrodeposited PoPD electrode is intrinsically electrically conductive enough, resulting in a binder and additive free electrode assembly. In addition, its discharge products do not dissolve in aqueous medium. As a whole, the resulting PoPD electrode delivers excellent rate performances with prolonged cycle life in which discharge capacities of ∼110 mAh g-1 in 0.25 M AlCl3 and ∼93 mAh g-1 in 1 M ZnSO4 aqueous electrolyte after 1000 cycles at a current density of 5C have been achieved.Natural polysaccharide (NPH)-based injectable hydrogels have shown great potential for critical-sized bone defect repair. However, their osteogenic, angiogenic, and mechanical properties are insufficient. Here, MgO nanoparticles (NPs) were incorporated into a newly synthesized water-soluble phosphocreatine-functionalized chitosan (CSMP) water solution to form an injectable hydrogel (CSMP-MgO) via supramolecular combination between phosphate groups in CSMP and magnesium in MgO NPs to circumvent these drawbacks of chitosan-based injectable hydrogels. Water-soluble chitosan deviate CSMP was first synthesized by grafting methacrylic anhydride and phosphocreatine into a chitosan chain in a one-step lyophilization process. The phosphocreatine in this hydrogel not only provides sites to combine with MgO NPs to form supramolecular binding but also serves as the reservoir to control Mg2+ release. As a result, the lyophilized CSMP-MgO hydrogels presented a porous structure with some small holes in the pore wall, and the pore diameters ranged from 50 to 100 μm.
