Invited for this month's cover are the collaborating groups of Dr. Yoshiaki Uchida from Osaka University, Japan, Prof. Rui Tamura and Prof. Masahito Sugiyama from Kyoto University, Japan and Dr. Dmitrii G. Mazhukin from Novosibirsk State University, Russia. The cover picture depicts a contrast between localized spins and conductive ions in the newly-synthesized ionic liquid crystalline (ILC) nitroxide radicals. The ILC droplet of the new compounds is magnetically manipulable. More information can be found in the Full Paper by Yoshiaki Uchida, Rui Tamura, and co-workers.

Solar-driven photocatalytic technology holds significant potential for addressing energy crisis and mitigating global warming, yet is limited by light absorption, charge separation, and surface reaction kinetics. The past several years has witnessed remarkable progress in optimizing photocatalysis electron spin control. This approach enhances light absorption through energy band tuning, promotes charge separation by spin polarization, and improves surface reaction kinetics strengthening surface interaction and increasing product selectivity.

Aims: The comorbidity of anxiety-like symptoms in neuropathic pain (NP) is a significant yet often overlooked health concern. Anxiety sufferers may have a lower tolerance for pain, but which is difficult to treat. Accumulating evidence suggests a strong link between astrocytes and the manifestation of NP with concurrent anxiety-like behaviors.

Mass production of biomedical microrobots demands expensive and complex preparation techniques and versatile biocompatible materials. Learning from natural bacteria flagella, the study demonstrates a magnetic polymer multilayer cylindrical microrobot that bestows the controllable propulsion upon an external rotating magnetic field with uniform intensity. The magnetic microrobots are constructed by template-assisted layer-by-layer technique and subsequent functionalization of magnetic particles onto the large opening of the microrobots.

Borophene, as a new material with various configurations, has attracted significant research attention in recent years. In this study, the electronic properties of a series of χ-type borophene nanoribbons (BNRs) are investigated using a first-principles approach. The results show that the width and edge pattern of the nanoribbons can effectively tune their electronic properties.

Language control processes allow for the flexible manipulation and access to context-appropriate verbal representations. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have localized the brain regions involved in language control processes usually by comparing high vs. low lexical-semantic control conditions during verbal tasks.
