Article Abstract

Methane in the solid state is often studied in interaction with water, either as clathrate hydrates or as interstellar ice in a water-rich ice environment. Using free-electron laser infrared irradiation, we studied the interaction between CH and HO through energy dissipation after on-resonance vibrational excitation. The observed changes in the ice structure are largely independent of the vibrational mode excited and suggest an energy-dissipation-induced local heating of the ice. Local heating results in desorption for the two pure crystalline phases of CH, a phase transition to phase II for metastable CH and a 1:10 HO:CH mixture, and segregation for the 1:1 and 1:5 HO:CH ice mixtures. Local heating only occurs when the infrared irradiation is on resonance with a vibrational mode of the system in the case of the pure CH ices, suggesting that a sufficient absorption cross section is required to convert the on-resonance vibrational energy into general heating.

Dynamic micro/nano-structured surfaces play pivotal roles in biological systems and engineering applications. Despite considerable progress has been made in fabricating precisely ordered architectures, achieving controlled motion in top-down fabricated structures remain a formidable challenge. Here, we introduce an advanced dynamic micron-nano optical platform featuring hierarchical microscale wrinkles integrated with ordered nanoscale arrays.

In this study, we successfully developed a diselenide-based, triple-responsive intelligent nanogel, IR780@BEAP, for lung cancer therapy. Exploiting the elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and glutathione (GSH) in the tumor microenvironment (TME), a ROS/GSH dual-responsive diselenide cross-linker (DSe5) was synthesized and used to cross-link betulin (BE) with polysaccharide (AP) while coloading the photosensitizer IR780. The resulting nanogel, IR780@BEAP, exhibited an appropriate particle size (137.
