    查看更多>>摘要:In recent years,perovskite solar cells(PSCs)have gone through unparalleled rapid expansion and be-come a candidate for solar cells.Among various PSCs,though typical three-dimensional(3D)halide perovskite-based PSCs deliver the highest efficiency,they are subjected to severe instability,which con-strains their commercializability.In comparison,two-dimensional(2D)PSCs have aroused wide-spread concern due to their superior stability.After that,2D/3D perovskite materials combining high ef-ficiency and good stability have emerged as the times require,which are expected to bring about stable and efficient PSCs.Here,this review focuses on selection of functional spacer cations for efficient and stable 2D/3D PSCs.First,the unique function of different spacer groups and the selection of appro-priate spacer cations in 2D perovskites is summa-rized and proposed.Then,by selecting appropriate cations,the role of 2D perovskites is elaborated,including energy level regulation,ion migration sup-pression,defect passivation,residual stress release and improved stability.In addition,the preparation methods of 2D/3D perovskites are comprehensively summarized.Finally,current challenges and future opportunities for the further development of 2D/3D perovskites for solar cells are discussed and pros-pected.

    查看更多>>摘要:The effective encapsulation of antitumor drugs by dynamic host-guest interactions at the submicromo-lar level remains a challenge.Herein,we report a cleavable self-inclusion camptothecin-cucurbit[7]uril(CPT-CB[7])conjugate.The binding affinity of CB[7]to CPT is greatly enhanced owing to the intramolecu-lar self-inclusion,demonstrating a concentration-independent encapsulation efficiency of nearly 100%.The disulfide linker of CPT-CB[7]conjugate can be cleaved in the reductive tumor microenviron-ment,transforming the self-inclusion into a binary host-guest complexation pattern,thus releasing the CPT thoroughly.The enhanced biocompatibility and antitumor bioactivity of the cleavable self-inclusion conjugate have been confirmed by in vitro and in vivo experiments.This line of research will open new hor-izons for supramolecular drug delivery systems oper-ating in diluted and competitive conditions.

    查看更多>>摘要:Plasmonic optical manipulation has emerged as an affordable alternative to manipulate single chemical and biological molecules in nanoscience.Although the theoretical models of sub-5 nm single-molecule trapping have been considered promising,the exper-imental strategies remain a challenge due to the Brownian motions and weak optical gradient forces with significantly reduced molecular polarizability.Herein,we address direct trapping and in situ sensing of single molecules with unprecedented size,down to~5 Å in solution,by employing an adjustable plasmonic optical nanogap and single-molecule con-ductance measurement.The theoretical simulations demonstrate that local fields with a high enhance-ment factor,over 103,were generated at such small nanogaps,resulting in optical forces as large as sev-eral piconewtons to suppress the Brownian motion and trap a molecule of length sub-1 nm.This work demonstrates a strategy for directly manipulating the small molecule units,promising a vast multitude of applications in chemical,biological,and materials sciences at the single-molecule level.
