    Revelation of Interfacial Energetics in Organic Multiheterojunctions

    Christian Kästner, Koen Vandewal, Daniel Ayuk Mbi Egbe and Harald Hoppe

    Version of Record online: 1 DEC 2016 | DOI: 10.1002/advs.201600331

    Efficient charge generation via exciton dissociation in organic bulk heterojunctions necessitates donor–acceptor interfaces. It is shown that their energy landscape is reflected in interfacial charge transfer transitions, probed via luminescence spectroscopy, and depended on the existence of disordered/ordered interfacial domains, which are experimentally applied by ternary blending of amorphous and semicrystalline polymer, in various ratios, with fullerenes.

    Light Like a Feather: A Fibrous Natural Composite with a Shape Changing from Round to Square

    Bin Wang and Marc André Meyers

    Version of Record online: 1 DEC 2016 | DOI: 10.1002/advs.201600360

    Thumbnail image of graphical abstract

    Why is the proximal base of flight feather shaft round but the distal end square? Nature seldom produces square shapes, but the feather rachis is one exception. Here fundamental reasons are provided explaining the unique structural design: the gradient in shape and the varying fiber orientations work synergistically, tailoring the flexural stiffness along the shaft length while minimizing weight.

    Transition Metal-Involved Photon Upconversion

    Shi Ye, En-Hai Song and Qin-Yuan Zhang

    Version of Record online: 29 NOV 2016 | DOI: 10.1002/advs.201600302

    This review focuses on recent advances in the photon upconversion of transition metal ions with an emphasis on room temperature upconversion, the upconversion of Ln3+ tuned by TM or d0 ions (anion groups), and the upconversion of d0 ions (anion groups), as well as their potential applications in bioimaging, solar cells and multifunctional devices.

    Sequential Double “Clicks” toward Structurally Well-Defined Heterogeneous N-Glycoclusters: The Importance of Cluster Heterogeneity on Pattern Recognition In Vivo

    Liliya Latypova, Regina Sibgatullina, Akihiro Ogura, Katsumasa Fujiki, Alsu Khabibrakhmanova, Tsuyoshi Tahara, Satoshi Nozaki, Sayaka Urano, Kazuki Tsubokura, Hirotaka Onoe, Yasuyoshi Watanabe, Almira Kurbangalieva and Katsunori Tanaka

    Version of Record online: 28 NOV 2016 | DOI: 10.1002/advs.201600394

    Structurally well-defined heterogeneous N-glycoclusters are prepared on albumin via a double click procedure. The number of glycan molecules present, in addition to the spatial arrangement of glycans in the heterogeneous glycoclusters, plays an important role in the in vivo kinetics and organ-selective accumulation through glycan pattern recognition mechanisms.

    Ultrathin Fluidic Laminates for Large-Area Façade Integration and Smart Windows

    Benjamin P. V. Heiz, Zhiwen Pan, Gerhard Lautenschläger, Christin Sirtl, Matthias Kraus and Lothar Wondraczek

    Version of Record online: 21 NOV 2016 | DOI: 10.1002/advs.201600362

    Thumbnail image of graphical abstract

    Glass–glass fluidic devices are presented for large-area integration with adaptive façades and smart windows, enabling harnessing and dedicated control of liquids for added functionality in the building envelope by wrapping buildings into a fluidic layer.
