A microRNA-responsive drug release system will strengthen the selectiveness of the photodynamic therapy system.
250 Years TU Bergakademie Freiberg
This special issue of steel research international is dedicated to the 250th jubilee of the foundation of Technische Universität Bergakademie Freiberg.
The Effects of Molecular Chirality on Liquid Crystals
Liquid crystals with a bent-core have revolutionized research in soft condensed matter chemistry and physics.
1D nanostructures enable novel photonic devices in lieu of liquid crystal-based techniques
The ability to control the structural properties at the microscopic level in real-time allows the optical properties of the host medium to dynamically change .
Advanced Optical Materials – July Issue Covers
Check out the articles highlighted on the covers of the latest issue of Advanced Optical Materials.
Sticking electric vehicles
A broad range of adhesive tapes of tesa support for electric cars.
Impact of size and loading direction on the strength of architected lattice materials
Researchers from KIT show that the strength of polymer-alumina core-shell composite microlattices doubles when their size is scaled down by 50%.
Efficient radiative pumping of polaritons in a strongly coupled microcavity
This analysis demonstrated that the polariton states are most likely formed when the excited dye molecules in the cavity emit a photon, with this photon then directly exciting the photon-like part of the polariton.
A novel 14-chamber human body-on-a-chip device
Researchers describe a novel “body-on-a-chip” device that consists of 14 interconnected compartments, each representing a different organ of the human body.
