The carbon-core is usually characterized by a sp2 carbon structure similar to graphite, potentially affected by quantum confinement effects due to the nanosize, whereas surface electronic transitions are related to functional groups10,11,12. The preparation of nitrogen-doped C-dots has been achieved ...
3.2.10 Functional Monomers Functional monomers are those showing particularly reactive side-chain groups that can be used in order to synthesize more complex vinyl compounds, such as macromonomers; or to improve the functionality of preformed polymer chains. Moreover, these monomers and polymers can ...
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with different functional groups have wide applications, while the understanding of functionalization influences remains insufficient. Previous researches focused on the static changes in electronic structure or chemical environment, while it is unclear in the aspect of dynamic...

Materials that can assist with perception and responsivity of an engineered machine are said to promote physical intelligence. Physical intelligence may be
Recently, many groups have investigated therapies for ED through adipose tissue stem cells (ADSC)[20-26]. With the discovery of EVs in recent years, it was gradually recognized that stem cells might function through secretory pathways of EVs (mainly exosomes)[27]. ADSCs have been used to ...
Cellulose is one of the most abundant natural polymers in the nature, which has many attractive advantages, such as renewability, biodegradability, and bio
Microbial communities associated with insects vary from relatively simple and static intracellular bacterial assemblages [14, 15] to highly complex and dynamic communities comprised of different taxonomic groups of microbes (e.g., fungi and bacteria) such as those associated with wood-feeding (xylo...
The surface functional groups further control the electronic properties (metallic conductors to semiconductors, and superconductivity)66,67, and stability. So far, five compositions of high-entropy MXenes have been reported since 2021, and a few of them are being studied in energy storage ...
Mice were housed in sibling groups and given access to chow diet and water ad libitum. Mice were weighed weekly and were within a range of 25–35 g. Housing density was between 1 and 5 animals per cage (up to 25 g) or between 1 and 4 animals per cage (over 25 g). Health...
