It is highly desired that satisfactory photoactive agents with ideal photophysical characteristics are explored for potent cancer phototherapeutics. Herein, bifunctional nanoparticles of low-bandgap donor-acceptor (D-A)-type conjugated-polymer (CP-NPs) developed to afford a efficient singlet-to-triplet transition and photothermal conversion near-infrared (NIR) light-induced photodynamic (PDT)/photothermal (PTT) treatment. CP-NPs display remarkable NIR absorption the peak at 782 nm, perfect...
Because of its ultrahigh specific capacity, lithium metal holds great promise for revolutionizing current rechargeable battery technologies. Nevertheless, the unavoidable formation dendritic Li, as well resulting safety hazards and poor cycling stability, have significantly hindered practical applications. A mainstream strategy to solve this problem is introducing porous media, such solid electrolytes, modified separators, or artificial protection layers, block Li dendrite penetration....
The transport behavior of water molecules inside a model carbon nanotube is investigated by using nonequilibrium molecular dynamcis (NMED) simulations. shearing stress between the wall and identified as key factor in determining nanofluidic properties. Due to effect nanoscale confinement, effective not only size sensitive but also strongly dependent on fluid flow rate. Consequently, nominal viscosity confined decreases rapidly tube radius reduced or when faster rate maintained. An...
