The construction of three-dimensional (3D) covalent organic frameworks (COFs), especially fully conjugated 3D COFs, is a long-standing challenge. Herein, we report a saddle-like, π-conjugated cyclooctatetrathiophene (COTh) as a tetrahedral node to construct fully conjugated 3D COFs. The present work enriches the structural diversities and potential applications of 3D COFs.

Organic photovoltaic materials that can be processed via non-halogenated solvents are crucial for the large-area manufacturing of organic solar cells (OSCs). However, the limited available of electron acceptors with adequate solubility and favorable molecular packing presents a challenge in achieving efficient non-halogenated solvent-processed OSCs. Herein, inspired by the three-dimensional dimeric acceptor CH8-4, we employed a molecular isomerization strategy to synthesize its isomers, CH8-4A and CH8-4B, by tuning the position of fluorine (F) atom in the central unit.

The use of green fluorescence protein (GFP) has advanced numerous areas of life sciences. An ultra-thermostable GFP (TGP), engineered from a coral GFP, offers potential advantages over traditional jellyfish-derived GFP because of its high stability. However, owing to its later discovery, TGP lacks the extensive toolsets available for GFP, such as heavy chain-only antibody binders known as nanobodies.

Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) film attracted considerable attention in information storage and encryption, three-dimensional display, and chiral recognition. However, due to the limited molecular mobility within thin film, achieving a high asymmetry factor and non-contact modulation of CPL remain challenging. In this work, color-switchable homochiral CPL films with high luminescence asymmetry factor (glum~0.

The development of rapid analysis of human serum for the presence of allergen-specific Immunoglobulin E (IgE) is currently important. Consequently, we developed two types of three-dimensional (3D) protein biochips. The first one is a 3D hydrogel biochip containing hydrogel droplets with protein molecules (allergens, immunoglobulins and others).
