ide, and (±)-enokipodin B.Single-atom and single-particle catalysis is an area of considerable topical interest due to their potential in explaining important fundamental processes and applications across several areas. An interesting avenue in single-particle catalysis is spatial control of chemical reactivity within the particle by employing light as an external stimulus. To demonstrate this concept, we report galvanic replacement reactions (GRRs) as a spatial marker of subparticle chemical reactivity of a silver nanoprism with AuCl4 – ions under optical excitation. The location of a GRR within a single Ag nanoprism can be spatially controlled depending on the plasmon mode excited. This leads to chemomorphological transformation of Ag nanoprisms into interesting Ag-Au structures. This spatial biasing effect is attributed to localized hot electron injection from the tips and edges of the silver nanoprisms to the adjacent reactants that correlate with excitation of different surface plasmon modes. The study also employs low-energy-loss EELS mapping to additionally probe the spatially confined redox reaction within a silver nanoprism. The findings presented here allow the visualization of a plasmon-driven subparticle chemical transformation with high resolution. The selective optical excitation of surface plasmon eigenmodes of anisotropic nanoparticles offers opportunities to spatially modulate chemical transformations mediated by hot electron transfer.We propose a technique of Raman spectroscopy to characterize the excitonic nature and to evaluate the relative contribution of the two kinds of electron/exciton-phonon interactions that are observed in two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs). In the TMDCs, the electron/exciton-phonon interactions mainly originate from the deformation potential (DP) or the Fröhlich interaction (FI) which give the mutually different Raman tensors. Using a circularly polarized light, the relative proportion of the DP and the FI can be defined by the ratio of helicity-polarized intensity that is observed by MoS2. By this analysis, we show that the excitonic FI interaction gradually increases with decreasing temperature, contributes equally to DP at ∼230 K, and dominates at lower temperatures. The excitonic effect in the Raman spectra is confirmed by modulating the dielectric environment for the exciton and by changing the laser power.Cancer metastasis is a central oncology concern that worsens patient conditions and increases mortality in a short period of time. During metastatic events, mitochondria undergo specific physiological alterations that have emerged as notable therapeutic targets to counter cancer progression. In this study, we use drug-free, cationic peptide fibrillar assemblies (PFAs) formed by poly(L-Lysine)-block-poly(L-Threonine) (Lys-b-Thr) to target mitochondria. These PFAs interact with cellular and mitochondrial membranes via electrostatic interactions, resulting in membranolysis. Charge repulsion and hydrogen-bonding interactions exerted by Lys and Thr segments dictate the packing of the peptides and enable the PFAs to display enhanced membranolytic activity toward cancer cells. Cytochrome c (cyt c), endonuclease G, and apoptosis-inducing factor were released from mitochondria after treatment of lung cancer cells, subsequently inducing caspase-dependent and caspase-independent apoptotic pathways. read more A metastatic xenograft mouse model was used to show how the PFAs significantly suppressed lung metastasis and inhibited tumor growth, while avoiding significant body weight loss and mortality. Antimetastatic activities of PFAs are also demonstrated by in vitro inhibition of lung cancer cell migration and clonogenesis. Our results imply that the cationic PFAs achieved the intended and targeted mitochondrial damage, providing an efficient antimetastatic therapy.In the areas of flexible displays and wearable devices, double-sided light-emitting devices have huge commercial applications. Here, we provide a novel form of flexible double-sided light-emitting devices by designing and manufacturing different transparent interdigital electrodes for lighting the structural areas of composite emitting layers. The transparent interdigital electrodes are fabricated by embedding multiwalled carbon nanotubes in interdigital mesh-structured microcavities using a doctor-blading process, and the emitting layers are fabricated by mixing copper-doped zinc sulfide (ZnS/Cu) phosphor particles with the transparent polydimethylsiloxane polymer. The fabricated double-sided light-emitting devices could be in the crimp state, exhibiting excellent flexibility. By designing the structure of the interdigital electrodes and the thickness of the emitting layers, the double-sided emission intensity of the light-emitting devices can be adjusted. Furthermore, based on the flexible double-sided light-emitting devices, various patterns can be successfully programed, such as the digital, grayscale, and ancient Chinese walls. The flexible and programmable double-sided light-emitting films provide a promising strategy for the next generation of customized flexible displays.The photophysics of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is intensively studied due to their potential application in light harvesting and optoelectronics. Excited states of SWCNTs form strongly bound electron-hole pairs, excitons, of which only singlet excitons participate in application relevant optical transitions. Long-living spin-triplet states hinder applications, but they emerge as candidates for quantum information storage. Therefore, knowledge of the triplet exciton energy structure, in particular in a SWCNT chirality dependent manner, is greatly desired. We report the observation of light emission from triplet state recombination, i.e., phosphorescence, for several SWCNT chiralities using a purpose-built spectrometer. This yields the singlet-triplet gap as a function of the SWCNT diameter, and it follows predictions based on quantum confinement effects. Saturation under high microwave power (up to 10 W) irradiation allows the spin-relaxation time for triplet states to be determined. Our study sensitively discriminates whether the lowest optically active state is populated from an excited state on the same nanotube or through Förster exciton energy transfer from a neighboring nanotube.
