This Review highlights the current understanding of mechanisms underlying the mechanical changes occurring in diseased and immune cells and discusses new approaches to leverage and target biomechanical cues for immune engineering at various length scales for therapeutic interventions.
The Review discusses the state-of-the-art polymer nanocomposites from three key aspects: dipole activity, breakdown resistance and heat tolerance for capacitive energy storage applications.
Nanoparticles naturally accumulate in the liver; this can be a major limitation to any therapy needing delivery to other organs or tissues. Here the authors review the reason for predominant liver uptake and explore different strategies used to target non-viral gene delivery nanoparticles to other organs and tissues.
This Review analyses the mechanisms of light extraction from perovskite light-emitting diodes and suggests new approaches towards ultrahigh electroluminescence efficiencies.
This Review discusses the latest theoretical progress related to exceptional points in non-Hermitian physics and the associated implications for emerging technologies in nanophotonics.
This Review highlights the role of transition metal dichalcogenides, hexagonal boron nitride and stacked heterostructures in applications in quantum communication, computation, sensing and single-photon detection.
This Review presents the most recent ferroelectric materials with wurtzite structure and emphasizes applications in memory and storage-based microelectronic hardware.
This critical Review discusses the molecular sieving behaviour of metal–organic framework and covalent organic framework membranes as thin supported layers and mixed-matrix membranes. This behaviour is different from that of classical zeolite membranes.
This Review discusses how a comprehensive system for defining nanomaterial descriptors can enable a safe-and-sustainable-by-design concept for engineered nanomaterials.
This Review elaborates on the recent developments and the future opportunities and challenges of fundamental research on semiconductor moiré materials, with a particular focus on transition metal dichalcogenides.
This Review discusses how artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms can be used in combination with X-ray computed tomography to study the composition and the dynamics of microstructures in battery materials with nanoscale resolution.
This perspective analyses the adverse reactions reported for mRNA-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in the light of infusion reactions to nanomedicines, which display similar outcomes, suggests possible mechanisms and offers a safety roadmap for vaccine developers.
