Composite materials are made from two or more constituent materials with distinct physical
or chemical properties that, when combined, produce a material with characteristics which …

Interfacing inorganic nanoparticles and biological systems with the aim of developing novel
imaging and sensing platforms has generated great interest and much activity. However, the …

The therapeutic effect of chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is significantly restricted by the stern
reaction conditions and slow reaction rate of the Fenton reaction (pH 3–4). Herein, we report …

We introduce a set of multicoordinating imidazole-and zwitterion-based ligands suited for
surface functionalization of quantum dots (QDs). The polymeric ligands are built using a one …

The oxygen-dependent feature of most photosensitizers (PSs) and the aggravated hypoxia
tumor microenvironment seriously impede the photodynamic therapy (PDT) effectiveness …

Conspectus In the past three decades, interest in using nanoparticles as diagnostic tools to
interrogate various biosystems has witnessed remarkable growth. For instance, it has been …

The design and development of a multifunctional and stimuli‐responsive magnetic
nanoparticle (MNP)‐based drug delivery system has attracted great interest for the …

Over the past decade, N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) have attracted remarkable attention
as metal-coordinating ligands because of their ability to strongly interact with transition metal …

We introduce a new set of multicoordinating polymers as ligands that combine two distinct
metal-chelating groups, lipoic acid and imidazole, for the surface functionalization of QDs …

In this feature article, we provide an overview of our research on statistical copolymers as a
coating material for metal oxide nanoparticles and surfaces. These copolymers contain …
