TL;DR: This paper reviews the recent progress in the preparation of oxide-based and heteroatom-doped particles, which are functionalized with organic molecules or doped with heteroatoms, the physicochemical properties of the particles and the possibilities for their photofunctional applications as complex systems.

TL;DR: A novel hybrid nanosystem based on a highly networked silica nanoarchitecture conjugated through covalent bonding to an organic functional molecule, a tetraphenylporphyrin derivative, and its metal complexes is presented, showing excellent performance for acetone sensing at low operating temperatures (37 °C), making it available for diagnostic monitoring.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) micelles on the HAp nanocrystal formation process were investigated through both the morphosynthesis technique and the molecular orbital calculations.

TL;DR: It is reported for the first time that the nanomechanical sensing combined with machine learning realizes the specific information extraction, e.g. alcohol content quantification as a proof-of-concept, from the smells of liquors.

TL;DR: In this paper, a shape-memory surface with on demand, tunable nano-patterns was developed to observe time dependent changes in fibroblast cell alignment using temperature-responsive poly(e-caprolactone) (PCL) films.
