This review consolidates the latest advancements in stretchable organic photovoltaic (s-OPV) materials, providing a comprehensive overview of the field's progress.

Three main systems for electrochemical H/D separation, including water electrolysis, fuel cell, and electrochemical hydrogen pump systems.

We demonstrate, for the first time, a quinoidal cathode interlayer that achieves a power conversion efficiency exceeding 19% in binary organic solar cells.

Se-PC, a novel nuclear DNA-targeted type I photosensitizer, exhibits strong DNA affinity and generates superoxide radicals under low-dose light, directly damaging DNA for potent tumor ablation, enhancing PDT efficacy.

The two-dimensional endohedral metallofullerene (EMF) single-molecule magnet materials were designed by utilizing fullerene confinement-induced unpaired f-electrons.

Constant potential simulations reveal that ionomer backbone rigidity strongly influences electric double-layer structures at electrode interfaces, providing insight into tuning interfacial behavior in electrocatalytic systems.

A remarkable phosphorescence quantum yield (69.6%) was obtained, and then decreased to 2.7% with the variation in the methyl substituent position due to the extremely strong association between the substituent position and electron–phonon coupling.

A dual-functional activatable probe reveals spatiotemporal dynamics of lipid peroxidation-driven membrane rupture during photodynamic inactivation, highlighting division-specific vulnerability for precision antibacterial design.

This work describes the introduction of amorphism-dominated polytetrafluoroethylene into molecular catalysts for electrochemical CO₂ reduction. This strategy enhances the hydrophobicity of the microenvironment and improves the performance.

This study is the first to demonstrate that, in addition to molecular structure, molecular conformation (such as the ax and eq conformations of the phenothiazine unit) also plays a crucial role in determining the redox potential of the electrode.

In this work, holey nitrogen-doped carbons with various coordination configurations of N have been synthesized to explore the active centers for producing high value-added thiobenzamide by nucleophilic addition of the cyano group using H₂S.

Oxime organic electrode materials with reduced solubility achieve excellent cycling stability for 12 000 cycles.

The local PO microenvironment activates the adjacent C atom to modulate the oxygen adsorption through the Yeager model, thereby enhancing the ORR kinetics even in hostile environments with low temperatures and proton concentrations.

A hydrophobic microenvironment near SnS₂ was constructed using polyvinylidene fluoride modification, which could increase the CO₂ concentration around SnS₂ surface. This strategy could enhance catalytic performance of SnS₂ across a wide pH range.
