Quasi-2D Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites attract great attention as an optical gain media in lasing applications due to their excellent optoelectronic properties. Herein, a novel quasi-2D Ruddlesden-Popper perovskite based on 2-thiophenemethylammonium (ThMA) is synthesized by a facile solution-processed method. In addition, an anti-solvent treatment method is proposed to tune the phase distribution, and preferential orientation of quasi-2D (ThMA)CsnPbnBr thin films. The large-n-dominated narrow domain distribution improves the energy transfer efficiency from small-n to large-n phases. Also, the highly oriented nanocrystals facilitate the efficient Förster energy transfer, beneficial for the carrier population transfer. Furthermore, a green amplified spontaneous emission with a low threshold of 13.92 µJ/cm is obtained and a single-mode vertical-cavity laser with an 0.4 nm linewidth emission is fabricated. These findings provide insights into the design of the domain distribution to realize low-threshold multicolor continuous-wave or electrically driven quasi-2D perovskites laser.

Microparticle-templated droplets or dropicles have recently gained interest in the fields of diagnostic immunoassays, single-cell analysis, and digital molecular biology. Amphiphilic particles have been shown to spontaneously capture aqueous droplets within their cavities upon mixing with an immiscible oil phase, where each particle templates a single droplet. Here, an amphiphilic microparticle with four discrete hydrophilic patches embedded at the inner corners of a square-shaped hydrophobic outer ring of the particle (4C particle) is fabricated.

Amplified spontaneous emission of CdTe and CdTe-Ag quantum dot composites were compared for increasing the optical stripe length, whereby optical gain coefficients for various emission wavelengths were obtained. In the case of CdTe-Ag nanoparticle composites, we observed that plasmonic coupling causes both optical enhancement and quenching at different wavelengths, where the amplified spontaneous emission intensity becomes enhanced at short wavelengths but suppressed at long wavelengths (>600 nm). To analyze the logistic stripe length dependence of amplified spontaneous emission intensity, we used a differential method to obtain the gain coefficient beyond the amplification range.

Chirality evolution is ubiquitous and important in nature, but achieving it in artificial systems is still challenging. Herein, the chirality evolution of supramolecular helices based on l-phenylalanine derivative (LPF) and naphthylamide derivate (NDIAPY) is achieved by the strategy of electron transfer (ET) assisted secondary nucleation. ET from LPF to NDIAPY can be triggered by 5 s UV irradiation on left-handed LPF-NDIAPY co-assemblies, leading to NDIAPY radical anions and partial disassembly of the helices.

The fusion of wearable soft robotic actuators and motion-tracking sensors can enhance dance performance, amplifying its visual language and communicative potential. However, the intricate and unpredictable nature of improvisational dance poses unique challenges for existing motion-tracking methods, underscoring the need for more adaptable solutions. Conventional methods such as optical tracking face limitations due to limb occlusion.
