Formation Mechanism and High Thermoelectric Performance of Cu5+3xFe1‐xS4 Icosahedral Nanoparticles with Distinctive Core‐Shell Structures

AbstractMultiply twinned icosahedrons possess a diversity of unique functionalities well‐suited to various applications, such as thermoelectric conversion. Regarding chalcogenide icosahedron, an unconventional yet promising thermoelectric candidate, disclosing its growth mechanism is rather challenging. This study uncovers the formation mechanism of thermoelectric Cu5+3xFe1‐xS4 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.4) core‐shell nano‐icosahedrons, which is distinct from that of well‐known metal icosahedrons. Electron microscopy and molecular dynamics simulations reveal that the evolution into icosahedrons, stemming from the fivefold twin formation in the center of Cu5FeS4 particle aggregates, is accompanied by the gradual formation of Fe‐rich orthorhombic‐structured core and Cu‐rich cubic‐structured shell, which provides a peculiar stress relaxation mechanism. Further identified by density functional theory calculations, Fe atoms have the tendency to transform cubic Cu5FeS4 to its orthorhombic phase and in turn result in varied crystal structures and lattice parameters in the core and shell. Importantly, by adjusting the Cu/Fe ratio of the precursors, the stress‐releasing process and potential energy of icosahedrons are controllably tuned, generating Cu5+3xFe1‐xS4 icosahedrons with tunable diameters. Accordingly, a significantly enhanced thermoelectric zT of 0.90, the largest value for Cu5FeS4, is realized. This study will shed light on the design strategy for Cu‐based ternary chalcogenide icosahedrons with enhanced thermoelectric properties.

Morphing-to-Adhesion Polysaccharide Hydrogel for Adaptive Biointerfaces.

Reliable functions of medical implants highly depend on biocompatible, conformal, and stable biointerfaces for seamless biointegration with biological tissues. Though flexible biointerfaces based on synthetic hydrogels have shown promise in optimizing implant biointegration via surgical suturing, physical attachment, or manual preshaping, they still suffer from poor adaptability, such as tissue damage by surgical suturing, low bioactivity, and difficulties in conformal contact and stable fixation, especially for specific tissues of large surface curvatures. Here, we report a bilayer hydrogel-based adaptive biointerface (HAB) made of two polysaccharide derivates, N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester-activated alginate and chitosan, harnessing dual advantages of their different swelling and active groups. Leveraging on the differential swelling between the two hydrogel layers and covalent linkages with active groups at hydrogel interfaces, HABs can be programmed into sealed tubes with tunable diameters via water-induced compliable shape morphing and instant interfacial adhesion. We further demonstrate that the polysaccharide-based morphing-to-adhesion HAB possesses outstanding bioactivity in directing cellular focal adhesion and intercellular junction, versatile geometrical adaptability to diverse tubular tissues with a wide range of surface curvatures (2.8 × 102-1.3 × 103 m-1), and excellent mechanical stability in high load-/shear-bearing physiological environments (blood flow volume: 85 mm·s-1). HABs overcome the limitations of existing biointerfaces in terms of poor bioactivity and difficult biointegration with biological tissues of large surface curvatures, holding promise to open new avenues for adaptive biointerfaces and reliable medical implants.

Macroporous Aligned Hydrogel Microstrands for 3D Cell Guidance.

Tissue engineering strongly relies on the use of hydrogels as highly hydrated 3D matrices to support the maturation of laden cells. However, because of the lack of microarchitecture and sufficient porosity, common hydrogel systems do not provide physical cell-instructive guidance cues and efficient transport of nutrients and oxygen to the inner part of the construct. A controlled, organized cellular alignment and resulting alignment of secreted ECM are hallmarks of muscle, tendons, and nerves and play an important role in determining their functional properties. Although several strategies to induce cellular alignment have been investigated in 2D systems, the generation of cell-instructive 3D hydrogels remains a challenge. Here, we report on the development of a simple and scalable method to efficiently generate highly macroporous constructs featuring aligned guidance cues. A precross-linked bulk hydrogel is pressed through a grid with variable opening sizes, thus deconstructing it into an array of aligned, high aspect ratio microgels (microstrands) with tunable diameter that are eventually stabilized by a second photoclick cross-linking step. This method has been investigated and optimized both in silico and in vitro, thereby leading to conditions with excellent viability and organized cellular alignment. Finally, as proof of concept, the method has been shown to direct aligned muscle tissue maturation. These findings demonstrate the 3D physical guidance potential of our system, which can be used for a variety of anisotropic tissues and applications.

Sculpting Rupture-Free Nuclear Shapes in Fibrous Environments.

Cytoskeleton‐mediated force transmission regulates nucleus morphology. How nuclei shaping occurs in fibrous in vivo environments remains poorly understood. Here suspended nanofiber networks of precisely tunable (nm–µm) diameters are used to quantify nucleus plasticity in fibrous environments mimicking the natural extracellular matrix. Contrary to the apical cap over the nucleus in cells on 2‐dimensional surfaces, the cytoskeleton of cells on fibers displays a uniform actin network caging the nucleus. The role of contractility‐driven caging in sculpting nuclear shapes is investigated as cells spread on aligned single fibers, doublets, and multiple fibers of varying diameters. Cell contractility increases with fiber diameter due to increased focal adhesion clustering and density of actin stress fibers, which correlates with increased mechanosensitive transcription factor Yes‐associated protein (YAP) translocation to the nucleus. Unexpectedly, large‐ and small‐diameter fiber combinations lead to teardrop‐shaped nuclei due to stress fiber anisotropy across the cell. As cells spread on fibers, diameter‐dependent nuclear envelope invaginations that run the nucleus's length are formed at fiber contact sites. The sharpest invaginations enriched with heterochromatin clustering and sites of DNA repair are insufficient to trigger nucleus rupture. Overall, the authors quantitate the previously unknown sculpting and adaptability of nuclei to fibrous environments with pathophysiological implications.

Self-assembled Cu2−xS nanochains network with tunable diameters for efficient photothermal conversion

Cu 2−x S nanochains network (NCNW) with tunable diameter in the range of 5–9 nm is prepared by a self-assembly strategy. Control experiments reveal that poly (sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) plays a key role in guiding the assembly of the nanochains. The Cu 2−x S NCNW demonstrates a broad localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) band in the near-infrared-Ⅱ region, which matches the optical window of biological tissues. The LSPR band of the Cu 2−x S NCNW red-shifts and intensifies with the increase of diameter. The Cu 2−x S NCNW with an average diameter of 8.7 nm exhibits a high photothermal conversion efficiency of 80.7% under 808 nm laser (0.75 W cm −2 ). Furthermore, the thermal effect stability of the Cu 2−x S NCNW is also good. In vitro experiments demonstrate that all the nanochains possess low cell cytotoxicity. The 8.7 nm Cu 2−x S NCNW own the maximum cellular uptake, and can cause> 90% apoptosis rate of Hela cells under low power density laser (808 nm, 0.75 W cm −2 ), demonstrating its promising application in photothermal therapy. • Cu 2−x S nanochains network with tunable diameter is synthesized. • The Cu 2−x S NCNW exhibits strong LSPR in the Near-Infrared region. • The 8.7 nm Cu 2−x S NCNW exhibits high PCE of 80.7% under 808 nm laser. • The 8.7 nm NCNW has highest cellular uptake and photothermal cell ablation ability.

Nebulization of siRNA for inhalation therapy based on a microfluidic surface acoustic wave platform

The local delivery of therapeutic small interfering RNA or siRNA to the lungs has the potential to improve the prognosis for patients suffering debilitating lung diseases. Recent advances in materials science have been aimed at addressing delivery challenges including biodistribution, bioavailability and cell internalization, but an equally important challenge to overcome is the development of an inhalation device that can deliver the siRNA effectively to the lung, without degrading the therapeutic itself. Here, we report the nebulization of siRNA, either naked siRNA or complexed with polyethyleneimine (PEI) or a commercial transfection agent, using a miniaturizable acoustomicrofluidic nebulization device. The siRNA solution could be nebulised without significant degradation into an aerosol mist with tunable mean aerodynamic diameters of approximately 3 µm, which is appropriate for deep lung deposition via inhalation. The nebulized siRNA was tested for its stability, as well as its toxicity and gene silencing properties using the mammalian lung carcinoma cell line A549, which demonstrated that the gene silencing capability of siRNA is retained after nebulization. This highlights the potential application of the acoustomicrofluidic device for the delivery of efficacious siRNA via inhalation, either for systemic delivery via the alveolar epithelium or local therapeutic delivery to the lung.

A Dual Catalyst Strategy for Controlling Aluminum Nanocrystal Growth.

The synthesis of Al nanocrystals (Al NCs) is a rapidly expanding field, but there are few strategies for size and morphology control. Here we introduce a dual catalyst approach for the synthesis of Al NCs to control both NC size and shape. By using one catalyst that nucleates growth more rapidly than a second catalyst whose ligands affect NC morphology during growth, one can obtain both size and shape control of the resulting Al NCs. The combination of the two catalysts (1) titanium isopropoxide (TIP), for rapid nucleation, and (2) Tebbe's reagent, for specific facet-promoting growth, yields {100}-faceted Al NCs with tunable diameters between 35 and 65 nm. This dual-catalyst strategy could dramatically expand the possible outcomes for Al NC growth, opening the door to new controlled morphologies and a deeper understanding of earth-abundant plasmonic nanocrystal synthesis.

Review of the Electrospinning Process and the Electro-Conversion of 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) into Added-Value Chemicals.

Electrochemical converters (electrolyzers, fuel cells, and batteries) have gained prominence during the last decade for the unavoidable energy transition and the sustainable synthesis of platform chemicals. One of the key elements of these systems is the electrode material on which the electrochemical reactions occur, and therefore its design will impact their performance. This review focuses on the electrospinning method by examining a number of features of experimental conditions. Electrospinning is a fiber-spinning technology used to produce three-dimensional and ultrafine fibers with tunable diameters and lengths. The thermal treatment and the different analyses are discussed to understand the changes in the polymer to create usable electrode materials. Electrospun fibers have unique properties such as high surface area, high porosity, tunable surface properties, and low cost, among others. Furthermore, a little introduction to the 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) electrooxidation coupled to H2 production was included to show the benefit of upgrading biomass derivates in electrolyzers. Indeed, environmental and geopolitical constraints lead to shifts towards organic/inorganic electrosynthesis, which allows for one to dispense with polluting, toxic and expensive reagents. The electrooxidation of HMF instead of water (OER, oxygen evolution reaction) in an electrolyzer can be elegantly controlled to electro-synthesize added-value organic chemicals while lowering the required energy for CO2-free H2 production.

Transforming Capillary Alginate Gel (Capgel) into New 3D-Printing Biomaterial Inks.

Three-dimensional (3D) printing has great potential for creating tissues and organs to meet shortfalls in transplant supply, and biomaterial inks are key components of many such approaches. There is a need for biomaterial inks that facilitate integration, infiltration, and vascularization of targeted 3D-printed structures. This study is therefore focused on creating new biomaterial inks from self-assembled capillary alginate gel (Capgel), which possesses a unique microstructure of uniform tubular channels with tunable diameters and densities. First, extrusions of Capgel through needles (0.1–0.8 mm inner diameter) were investigated. It was found that Capgel ink extrudes as slurries of fractured and entangled particles, each retaining capillary microstructures, and that extruded line widths W and particle sizes A were both functions of needle inner diameter D, specifically power-law relationships of W~D0.42 and A~D1.52, respectively. Next, various structures were successfully 3D-printed with Capgel ink, thus demonstrating that this biomaterial ink is stackable and self-supporting. To increase ink self-adherence, Capgel was coated with poly-L-lysine (PLL) to create a cationic “skin” prior to extrusion. It was hypothesized that, during extrusion of Capgel-PLL, the sheared particles fracture and thereby expose cryptic sites of negatively-charged biomaterial capable of forming new polyelectrolyte bonds with areas of the positively-charged PLL skin on neighboring entangled particles. This novel approach resulted in continuous, self-adherent extrusions that remained intact in solution. Human lung fibroblasts (HLFs) were then cultured on this ink to investigate biocompatibility. HLFs readily colonized Capgel-PLL ink and were strongly oriented by the capillary microstructures. This is the first description of successful 3D-printing with Capgel biomaterial ink as well as the first demonstration of the concept and formulation of a self-adherent Capgel-PLL biomaterial ink.

Stable photoluminescent electrospun CdSe/CdS quantum dots-doped polyacrylonitrile composite nanofibers

Abstract Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) was often used as a composite fiber matrix due to its good spinning characteristics. Herein, photoluminescent quantum dot-doped nanofibers with tunable diameters were successfully prepared using electrospinning by adding CdSe/CdS quantum dots (QDs) in PAN spinning solution. The morphology and structure of CdSe/CdS-PAN nanofibers were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and the mechanical and photoluminescent properties of CdSe/CdS-PAN nanofibers were investigated. Stable photoluminescent nanofibers were obtained owning to the improved stability of photoluminescent property of CdSe/CdS QDs in the PAN nanofiber. The stable photoluminescent CdSe/CdS-PAN nanofibers might be used for anti-fake labels, ultraviolet sensors, smart textiles and optoelectronic devices.

A novel suitable TLC-SERS assembly strategy for detection of Rhodamine B and Sudan I in chili oil

In this work, a facile and effective method for assembly and transfer nanoparticles on thin layer chromatography (TLC) plate was proposed and used to combined with layer chromatography-surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TLC-SERS) strategy for detection of Rhodamine B and Sudan I. First, Monodispersed Ag NCs with broadly tunable diameters (from 41 to 67 nm) and 7.25 × 105 maximum actual enhancement factor (AEF) were successfully prepared and systematically investigated for its optic performance use in TLC-SERS. Au@Ag NCs were monitored by TEM, SEM and UV–Vis spectrometer. The optical properties of Ag NCs were simulated and the experimental results showed good consistency with simulation results of absorption spectra. Through three phases interfacial technique and a simple transfer method, nanostructures were assembled on the TLC plate. Moreover, the semi-quantitative analysis of Rhodamine B and Sudan I in the range of 1–200 ppm was performed based on the assembled TLC plate with the limit of detection as low as 1 ppm. In addition, the practical feasibility of this strategy was verified by the detection of Sudan I and Rhodamine B in chili oil. In general, this assembled TLC-SERS strategy builds a connection for the application of nanomaterials with rich morphology in TLC-SERS, which has a great application prospect and practical application value.

Tunable hierarchical hexagonal nickel telluride (Ni3Te2) laminated microsheets as flexible counter electrodes for high-performance fibrous dye-sensitized solar cells: Accelerated electrocatalysis reduction of I3− ions

To develop highly active catalysts as counter electrodes is another promising way for improving the photovoltaic conversion efficiency (PCE) of fibrous dye-sensitized solar cells (FDSSCs). Then considering their applications in wearable electronic system, the designed fibrous counter electrodes (FCEs) should possess a good mechanical flexibility except high catalysis performances. Here in this work, hexagonal nickel telluride (Ni3Te2) microsheets with tunable diameters and thicknesses were in-situ prepared via an atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition method on nickel wires. Benefiting from their two-dimensional laminated structure and asymmetric crystalline structure, the Ni3Te2 microsheets show a high catalytic activity for the reduction of I3- → I- during the photoelectrochemical processes in FDSSCs. And cell tests show that the maximum PCE of FDSSCs with Ni3Te2 FCEs reaches 11.81% (with an average value of 10.47%), which is 2.10 times that of the ones with Pt FCEs (5.62%). Furthermore, series of optimization on the microscale morphologies of Ni3Te2 microsheets indicates that the suitable diameter (30 ∼ 40 μm) and thickness (ca. 3.0 μm) are suitable for the diffusion and reduction of I3- ions. Besides, the FDDSCs with Ni3Te2 PCEs show a high cycling stability and an excellent dynamic bending stability (attenuation rate of 0.12‰ per bending cycle). This research would provide some insights into the design of high-performance FCEs for FDSSCs towards wearable electronic devices.

Amorphous-to-Crystalline Transformation: General Synthesis of Hollow Structured Covalent Organic Frameworks with High Crystallinity.

Morphological control of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) is particularly interesting to boost their applications; however, it remains a grand challenge to prepare hollow structured COFs (HCOFs) with high crystallinity and uniform morphology. Herein, we report a versatile and efficient strategy of amorphous-to-crystalline transformation for the general and controllable fabrication of highly crystalline HCOFs. These HCOFs exhibited ultrahigh surface areas, radially oriented nanopore channels, quite uniform morphologies, and tunable particle sizes. Mechanistic studies revealed that H2O, acetic acid, and solvent played a crucial role in manipulating the hollowing process and crystallization process by regulating the dynamic imine exchange reaction. Our approach was demonstrated to be applicable to various amines and aldehydes, producing up to 10 kinds of HCOFs. Importantly, based on this methodology, we even constructed a library of unprecedented HCOFs including HCOFs with different pore structures, bowl-like HCOFs, cross-wrinkled COF nanocapsules, grain-assembled HCOFs, and hydrangea-like HCOFs. This strategy was also successfully applied to the fabrication of COF-based yolk-shell nanostructures with various functional interior cores. Furthermore, catalytically active metal nanoparticles were implanted into the hollow cavities of HCOFs with tunable pore diameters, forming attractive size-selective nanoreactors. The obtained metal@HCOFs catalysts showed enhanced catalytic activity and outstanding size-selectivity in hydrogenation of nitroarenes. This work highlights the significance of nucleation-growth kinetics of COFs in tuning their morphologies, structures, and applications.

High-throughput production of kilogram-scale nanofibers by Kármán vortex solution blow spinning.

The interaction between gas flow and liquid flow, governed by fluid dynamic principles, is of substantial importance in both fundamental science and practical applications. For instance, a precisely designed gas shearing on liquid solution may lead to efficacious production of advanced nanomaterials. Here, we devised a needleless Kármán vortex solution blow spinning system that uses a roll-to-roll nylon thread to deliver spinning solution, coupled with vertically blowing airflow to draw high-quality nanofibers with large throughput. A wide variety of nanofibers including polymers, carbon, ceramics, and composites with tunable diameters were fabricated at ultrahigh rates. The system can be further upgraded from single thread to multiple parallel threads and to the meshes, boosting the production of nanofibers to kilogram scale without compromising their quality.

Superparamagnetic iron oxide-enclosed hollow gold nanostructure with tunable surface plasmon resonances to promote near-infrared photothermal conversion

In this study, to enhance deep tissue penetration by near-infrared (NIR) light, a novel superparamagnetic iron oxide-enclosed hollow gold nanoshell (SPIO-HGNS) structure with tunable size and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in the NIR range was designed and synthesized through a two-step template-enabled galvanic replacement reaction. Here, Ag-coated SPIO (SPIO-Ag) was prepared as a template with tunable outer diameters by way of adjusting the Ag content. SPIO-HGNS with variable hollow gold inner diameters can then be synthesized based on the determined outer diameter of the SPIO-Ag template through a galvanic replacement reaction between HAuCl3 and Ag coating on the SPIO surface. With incrementing amounts of Ag, three SPIO-HGNS structures were synthesized with comparable shell thicknesses around 6.7 nm and an average inner diameter of 38.7, 39.4, and 40.7 nm, respectively, evidenced by TEM and ICP results. The structure of SPIO-HGNS was confirmed by identifying Au111 lattice and the elemental mapping of Fe and Au using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The ultraviolet–visible-NIR absorption spectra showed red-shifted SPR peaks (820, 855, and 945 nm) with the increasing inner diameters of SPIO-HGNS, which was also supported by an absorption cross-section simulation. The photothermal results showed that the three SPIO-HGNS structures, when exposed to ~ 30 s of 400 mW laser irradiation, exhibited photothermal temperature rises of 5.9, 4.6, and 2.9 ℃, respectively. This study explored the tuning of SPR properties in NIR-responsive magneto-plasmonic nanoparticles through a facile preparation procedure, paving the way for potential applications in photothermal therapies.Graphical abstractThe NIR-responsive magneto-plasmonic SPIO-HGNS nanostructures were developed with tunable SPR properties and strong photothermal conversion capacities.

ECM-inspired peptide dendrimer microgels with human MSCs encapsulation for systemic lupus erythematosus treatment

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) transplantation is an emerging and attractive therapy for immune dysregulation diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, its application is hindered by short in vivo persistence and poor cellular survival after injection. Here, inspired by the native extracellular matrix (ECM) composition, we presented a novel peptide dendrimer-based microgel encapsulated with MSCs via a microfluidic approach for SLE treatment. By varying microfluidic parameters, monodisperse microgels with tunable diameters, porous microstructures, mechanical stiffness, and immune-isolation potential could be precisely achieved. As the water polymerization environment and ECM like components, the resultant microgels exhibited minimal toxicity in vivo and in vitro. We have also demonstrated that the MSCs encapsulated microgels could significantly increase the cellular bioactivity, enhance the immunomodulatory function, and attenuate disease symptoms in MRL/lpr mice. These results indicate the bioinspired microgels with MSCs encapsulation have potential clinical values in the treatment of SLE and other immune dysregulation diseases.

Inside Back Cover: Kinetics‐Regulated Interfacial Selective Superassembly of Asymmetric Smart Nanovehicles with Tailored Topological Hollow Architectures (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 12/2022)

A kinetics-regulated cooperative polymerization induced interfacial superassembly strategy is used by Biao Kong and co-workers in their Research Article (e202200240) to construct a series of asymmetric hollow porous composites with tunable diameters, architectures, and compositions. Owing to their excellent photothermal conversion performance and unique nanostructures, the resulting nanoparticles can be utilized as NIR light triggered nanovehicles with controllable cargo release.

Deep-learning-based colorimetric polarization-angle detection with metasurfaces

Polarization plays a key role in both optics and photonics. Generally, the polarization states of light are measured with birefringent or dichroic optical elements paired with a power meter. Here we propose a direct polarization detection method based on colorimetric asymmetrical all-dielectric metasurfaces to obtain the polarization angles of the incident light. The independently tunable periods and diameters along the x and y axes enables double-layer nanopillars to realize high-performance dual-color palettes with arbitrary combinations under orthogonal polarization states. The polarization detection network based on residual networks is used to deeply learn the regulations between color palette variations and incident polarization angles, which can accurately recognize extremely slight polarization variations in about 1 s with an accuracy of 81.4% within 0.7° error and 99.5% within 1.4° error. Our strategy significantly improves the compactness of polarization detection, and it can be readily expanded to polarization distribution measurement and colorimetric polarization imaging on an intelligent platform.

Enhance the thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of CF/PPBESK thermoplastic composites by growth ZnO nanowires with tunable length and diameter on prepreg

This study proposes a simple and effective way to modify prepreg by vertically aligned ZnO nanowires (ZnO NWs) with tunable length and diameter to enhance the thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of Carbon fiber/Copoly (phthalazinone ether sulfone ketone) (CF/PPBESK) composites. The effect of the morphology of ZnO NWs on the thermal conductivity and mechanical performance of composites were investigated. Observed by scanning electron microscopy, the surface of the prepregs and the cross-section of the composites showed uniform vertical ZnO NWs dispersion and strong fiber-resin adhesion. The result indicated that the thermal conductivity of ZnO NWs/CF/PPBESK composites were increased by 47.4% after ZnO NWs introducing. Moreover, the flexural strength, compressive strength and ILSS of ZnO NWs-modified composites were increased by 16.5%, 54.7% and 24.1%. The high temperature mechanical properties of ZnO NWs/CF/PPBESK composites were also improved, which suggested that introduction of ZnO NWs between prepreg layers was an effective way to construct structure/function integrated composites.

Kinetics‐Regulated Interfacial Selective Superassembly of Asymmetric Smart Nanovehicles with Tailored Topological Hollow Architectures

AbstractHollow nanoparticles featuring tunable structures with spatial and chemical specificity are of fundamental interest. However, it remains a significant challenge to design and synthesize asymmetric nanoparticles with controllable topological hollow architecture. Here, a versatile kinetics‐regulated cooperative polymerization induced interfacial selective superassembly strategy is demonstrated to construct a series of asymmetric hollow porous composites (AHPCs) with tunable diameters, architectures and components. The size and number of patches on Janus nanoparticles can be precisely manipulated by the precursor and catalyst content. Notably, AHPCs exhibit excellent photothermal conversion performance under the irradiation of a near infrared (NIR) laser. Thus, AHPCs are utilized as NIR light‐triggered nanovehicles and cargos can be controllably released. In brief, this versatile superassembly approach offers a streamlined and powerful toolset to design diverse asymmetric hollow porous composites.
