Article Abstract
Perovskite colloidal quantum dots (PQDs) are nanoscale crystals renowned for their exceptional optical properties, making them ideal for next-generation laser technologies. Their solution-processability supports thin-film fabrication and microcavity integration, yet micro-nano laser development remains challenging. In this study, we present a template-confined growth approach to fabricate hybrid microring (HMR) arrays, embedding PQDs within a 4,4'-bis(9-carbazolyl)-1,1'-biphenyl (CBP) matrix. This method produces uniform structures with improved processability. Structural characterization reveals a vertically graded PQD distribution, with higher concentrations near the substrate due to accumulation during CBP's bottom-up precipitation. CBP integration enhances processability and lowers PQD density, suppressing Auger recombination. These HMRs, featuring smooth surfaces, serve as efficient whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonators, achieving laser emission at a threshold of 6.64 μJ cm and a quality factor of 1808. Tunable ring dimensions enable precise mode control, while scalability supports large-area production of blue, green, and red HMRs, advancing integrated photonics.

Globular proteins as functional-mechanical materials: a multiscale perspective on design, processing, and applications.

Globular proteins, traditionally regarded as non-structural biomolecules due to the limited load-bearing capacity in their monomeric states, are increasingly recognized as valuable building blocks for functional-mechanical materials. Their inherent bioactivity, chemical versatility, and structural tunability enable the design of materials that combine biological functionality with tailored mechanical performance. This review highlights recent advances in engineering globular proteins-spanning natural systems (serum albumins, enzymes, milk globulins, silk sericin, and soy protein isolates) to recombinant architectures including tandem-repeat proteins-into functional-mechanical platforms.

Presented herein is a protocol for the iron-catalyzed [4 + 1] cycloadditions of -Boc-imines with β-ketosulfoxonum ylides through a succession of nucleophilic additions and intramolecular annulation, giving access to functionalized oxazolidine-2-ones in generally good yields. In contrast to the renown Corey-Chaykovsky reaction via N attack to furnish aziridines, this method afforded oxazolidine-2-ones via an O-nucleophilic attack. Features of this strategy include readily accessible starting materials, sustainable catalyst, post-functionalizations of complex molecules, scalability, and exceptional control over diastereoselectivity.

Supercoiled (Sc) circular DNA, such as plasmids, are essential in molecular biology and hold strong therapeutic potential. However, they are typically produced in Escherichia coli, resulting in bacterial methylations, unnecessary sequences, and contaminants that hinder certain applications including clinical uses. These limitations could be avoided by synthesizing plasmids entirely in vitro, but synthesizing high-purity Sc circular DNA biochemically remains a significant technical challenge.

Environmental phenols are widely used in consumer products and are of increasing concern due to their potential endocrine-disrupting effects. Physiologically based toxicokinetic (PBTK) models offer a powerful tool for estimating human exposure by translating biomonitoring data into external intake values. However, conventional PBTK models are typically chemical-specific and resource-intensive.
