Phase-separating peptides for direct cytosolic delivery and redox-activated release of macromolecular therapeutics by Sun, Yue, Lau, Sze Yi, Lim, Zhi Wei, Chang, Shi Chieh, Ghadessy, Farid, Partridge, Anthony, Miserez, Ali

“…Strategies to overcome this challenge often employ nanoscale carriers that can get trapped in endosomal compartments. Here we report conjugated peptides that form pH- and redox-responsive coacervate microdroplets by liquid-liquid phase separation that readily cross the cell membrane. …”

The effects of processing conditions on the morphology of single conjugated polymers. by Yeo, Hui Lin.

“…Spun-cast single chains were largely found to give neat intensity traces exhibiting discrete emission levels and clear off-states, suggesting a compact and collapsed disordered conformation favoring efficient energy funneling to one or a few low-energy exciton traps. These emissive centers of the collapsed chain were proposed to be intrachain aggregates consisting of closely π-stacked segments, therefore possessing weak oscillator strength and an extended radiative lifetime. …”

Controlled Growth and Reliable Thickness-Dependent Properties of Organic-Inorganic Perovskite Platelet Crystal by Niu, Lin, Zeng, Qingsheng, Shi, Jia, Cong, Chunxiao, Wu, Chunyang, Liu, Fucai, Zhou, Jiadong, Fu, Wei, Fu, Qundong, Jin, Chuanhong, Yu, Ting, Liu, Xinfeng, Liu, Zheng

“…Furthermore, from the time-resolved photoluminescence measurements, the best optoelectronic performance of the perovskite platelet is attributed with thickness of ≈30 nm to its dominant longest lifetime (≈4.5 ns) of perovskite excitons, which means lower surface traps or defects. This work supplies an alternative to the synthesis of high-quality organic perovskite and their possible optoelectronic applications with the most suitable materials.…”
