Magnetically controlled assembly: a new approach to organic integrated photonics

Abstract

Hierarchical self-assembly of organic molecules or assemblies is of great importance for organic photonics to move from fundamental research to integrated and practical applications. Magnetic fields with the advantages of...

Progress in controllable bioorthogonal catalysis for prodrug activation

“…Magnetic fields, which pose minimal physical interference with the body, have been successfully exploited as external stimuli to guide drug-loaded magnetic nanosystems to the intended diseased region via magnetic attraction. 89 In light of this, integration of magnetically responsive materials and bioorthogonal catalysts can guide the TMCs to the target site for the precise activation of the prodrug. For instance, Hoop et al fabricated heterogeneous nanowires composed of magnetic Fe and catalytic active Pd for targeted cancer therapy (Fig.…”

An unprecedented roll-off ratio in high-performing red TADF OLED emitters featuring 2,3-indole-annulated naphthalene imide and auxiliary donors

“…Along with the miniaturization of electronic components, 1–4 there is a growing demand for the rapid advancement of organic photonics dedicated to novel lighting and display technologies. 5–8 Since 2012, 9,10 when Adachi and co-workers revived the phenomenon of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) for organic emitters, immense research interest has emerged in new molecular design strategies to increase TADF emission efficiency and demonstrate its practical utility for a new generation of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). 8 In this regard, a small energy splitting (Δ E ST ) between their singlet (S 1 ) and triplet (T 1 ) excited states, allowing them to harvest all the electrically generated singlet and triplet excitons, must be induced to trigger effective reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) which is an endothermal process.…”

Theoretical investigation on the optical response of the artificial magnetic–plasmonic nanoclusters

“…Their tunability has attracted tremendous attention in recent years for applications spanning from metamaterials to biomedicine theranostics [16,17]. Furthermore, abundant work has been carried out to exploit the optical response of self-assembled nanostructures [18]. Among them, closely packed dimers consisting of two plasmonic nanoparticles are always used to illustrate how the near-field coupling between particles affects their spectral responses [18][19][20][21][22].…”
