Researchers at Westlake University have disclosed a two-dimensional (2D) mechanically interlocked polymer (MIP) that mimics medieval chainmail at the molecular scale. This micrometer-scale 2D material ...

High-performance photodetectors with great detection capability have been widely deployed in our daily life, such as driverless technology, intraoperative navigated surgery, face recognition, ...

A postfunctionalization strategy using blue LED light and an organophotoredox catalyst generates carbocation intermediates on polymer chains, enabling the incorporation of phosphonate esters. This ...
