Bimetallic alloys can form three typical structures, including solid solution, heterogeneous structure, and intermetallic compounds, depending on the interactions between identical and different atoms. Although this trend can be predicted through the types of binary phase diagrams, different synthesis methods can trap the system in various dynamical intermediates between these three typical structures. Here, we … Read more
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) have become promising candidate materials for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) electrocatalysts due to their unique cocktail electronic effect and lattice distortion effect. In this study, ultra-small (less than 2 nanometers) nanoparticles of PtRuCoNiCu HEA were highly dispersed on hierarchical nitrogen-doped carbon nanocages (hNCNC) through a low-temperature thermal reduction method, referred to as … Read more
iNature Glioblastoma (GBM) has an immune-suppressive microenvironment and blood-brain barrier (BBB) that severely hinders the infiltration and activity of natural killer (NK) cells, thereby reducing their clinical efficacy in GBM treatment. On December 23, 2024, Zhang Xianzheng from Wuhan University published a study titled “Cationic Magnetic Nanoparticles Activate Natural Killer Cells for the Treatment of … Read more
