Peptides, due to their favorable biocompatibility and stable non-covalent interaction, are highlighted in construction of biomedical materials, especially for self-assembly of peptides in living cells via enzyme stimuli or in situ peptide nanostructures which lead the frontier in disease diagnosis and treatment. However, such assembly strongly depends on enzyme overexpression, thus inapplicable to detecting early stage pathological cells or interfering their fate. For this problem, Zhilin Yu’s g

The ordered channel structure facilitates ions transfer and makes the COF follow a redox pseudocapacitance mechanism. Thus, it delivers a high reversible capacity of 225

Purely organic phosphors, with its excellent bio-compatibility, convenience for modification, superior long-lived emission and afterglow, have attracted widespread attention in fields of bioimaging, sensors, photoelectric materials, anti-counterfeiting field, and so forth. In recent years, Prof. Yu Liu’s Research Group of Nankai University found 4-phenylpyridinium derivatives with various substituent groups and cucurbituril exhibiting room-temperature phosphorescence, and carried out a series o
