Responsive materials can respond to different external stimuli by changing their chemical
or/and physical properties, thus being useful for various applications such as drug delivery …

Empty spaces are abhorred by nature, which immediately rushes in to fill the void. Humans
have learnt pretty well how to make ordered empty nanocontainers, and to get useful …

The presence and variation of chemical functionality and defects in crystalline materials,
such as metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), have tremendous impact on their properties …

Real-time visualization of assembly processes and sophisticated signal processing at the
nanoscale are two challenging topics in photonic nanomaterials. Here, high-quality light …

A novel system of light‐harvesting supramolecular block copolymers (SBCPs) in water is
demonstrated. To realize cucurbit [8] uril (CB [8])‐based SBCPs generating artificial light …

The elastic behaviour and the structural evolution of microporous materials compressed
hydrostatically in a pressure-transmitting fluid are drastically affected by the potential crystal …

Triplet energy transfer occurs frequently in natural photosynthetic organisms to protect
against photo-oxidative stress. For artificial light-harvesting systems, several challenges …

From the smallest ecological niche to global scale, communities of microbial life present a
major factor in system regulation and stability. As long as laboratory studies remain …

Multifunctional hybrid materials are obtained by modifying zeolite L (ZL) with stopcock
molecules, consisting of a tail group that can enter the ZL nanochannels and a head group …

Turning disorder into organization is a key issue in science. By making use of X‐ray powder
diffraction and modeling studies, we show herein that high pressures in combination with the …
