Abstract
It is challenging to detect and differentiate multiple diseases with high complexity/similarity from the same organ. Metabolic analysis based on nanomatrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (NMALDI-MS) is a promising platform for disease diagnosis, while the enhanced property of its core nanomatrix materials has plenty of room for improvement. Herein, a multidimensional interactive cascade nanochip composed of iron oxide nanoparticles (FeNPs)/MXene/gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), IMG, is reported for serum metabolic profiling to achieve high-throughput detection of multiple liver diseases. MXene serves as a multi-binding site and an electron-hole source for ionization during NMALDI-MS analysis. Introduction of AuNPs with surface plasmon resonance (SPR) properties facilitates surface charge accumulation and rapid energy conversion. FeNPs are integrated into the MXene/Au nanocomposite to sharply reduce the thermal conductivity of the nanochip with negligible heat loss for strong thermally-driven desorption, and construct a multi-interaction proton transport pathway with MXene and AuNPs for strong ionization. Analysis of these enhanced serum fingerprint signals detected from the IMG nanochip through a neural network model results in differentiation of multiple liver diseases via a single pass and revelation of potential metabolic biomarkers. The promising method can rapidly and accurately screen various liver diseases, thus allowing timely treatment of liver diseases.

ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2024; 36:e2311762.

Abstract
The use of mechanically flexible molecular crystals as optical transuding media is demonstrated for a plethora of applications; however, the spectral peaks of optical outputs located mainly in the range of 400-600 nm are insufficient for practical telecommunication and full-color display applications. Herein, two elastically bendable organic crystals are reported that show red emission of the rec.709 gamut under 365 nm UV light irradiation yet generate rec.2020 gamut red optical waveguides and amplified spontaneous emissions when irradiated by a 355 nm laser. Capitalizing on the extended π-conjugation and donor-acceptor character, as well as mechanical elasticity, these organic crystals exhibit flexible optical waveguides with Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.70, 0.29), nearly identical to the red chromaticity of the rec.2020 gamut required for ultrahigh-definition (UHD) displays. Notably, one of the elastic crystals functions as a soft resonance cavity, resulting in amplified spontaneous emission waveguides with CIE coordinates of (0.71, 0.29) and the standard red chromaticity of the rec.2020 gamut, both in straight and bent states. This study presents a new avenue for the development of high-purity red-emissive crystalline materials to create all-organic, lightweight, and mechanically compliant optical telecommunication and UHD display devices.

Abstract
Organic molecular crystals have historically been viewed as delicate and fragile materials. However, recent studies have revealed that many organic crystals, especially those with high aspect ratios, can display significant flexibility, elasticity, and shape adaptability. The discovery of mechanical compliance in organic crystals has recently enabled their integration with responsive polymers and other components to create novel hybrid and composite materials. These hybrids exhibit unique structure-property relationships and synergistic effects that not only combine, but occasionally also enhance the advantages of the constituent crystals and polymers. Such organic crystal composites rapidly emerge as a promising new class of materials for diverse applications in optics, electronics, sensing, soft robotics, and beyond. While specific, mostly practical challenges remain regarding scalability and manufacturability, being endowed with both structurally ordered and disordered components, the crystal-polymer composite materials set a hitherto unexplored yet very promising platform for the next-generation adaptive devices. This Perspective provides an in-depth analysis of the state-of-the-art in design strategies, dynamic properties and applications of hybrid and composite materials centered on organic crystals. It addresses the current challenges and provides a future outlook on this emerging class of multifunctional, stimuli-responsive, and mechanically robust class of materials.

[PMID: 38239690 PMCID: PMC10793602 DOI: 10.1039/d3sc04796b] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2023] [Accepted: 12/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Materials displaying negative thermal expansion (NTE), in contrast to typical materials with positive thermal expansion (PTE), are attractive for both fundamental research and practical applications, including the development of composites with near-zero thermal expansion. A recent data mining study revealed that approximately 34% of organic crystals may present NTE, indicating that NTE in organic crystals is much more common than generally believed. However, organic crystals that switch from NTE to PTE or vice versa have rarely been reported. Here, we report the crystal of N-3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylide-3-nitroaniline in the enol form (enol-1) as the first organic crystal in which the axial thermal expansion changes from negative to positive at around room temperature. When heated, the crystal shrinks along the a-axis below 30 °C and then it expands above 30 °C. Geometric calculations revealed that below 30 °C, the decrease in the tilt angle of the molecule exceeds the increase in the interplanar distance, causing NTE, whereas above 30 °C, the increase in the interplanar distance outweighs the decrease in the tilt angle, resulting in PTE. By combining photoisomerisation and the NTE-PTE switching induced by the photothermal effect, multistep crystal photoactuation was achieved. Moreover, actuation switching of the same crystal sample by changing atmosphere temperature was realised by utilising the NTE-PTE change. Such NTE-PTE switching without a thermal phase transition provides not only new insight into organic crystals but also a new strategy for designing crystal actuators.
