Summary Lung cancer is an extremely heterogeneous disease, and its treatment remains one of the most challenging tasks in medicine. Few existing laboratory lung cancer models can faithfully recapitulate the diversity of the disease and predict therapy response. Here, we establish 12 patient-derived organoids from the most common lung cancer subtype, lung adenocarcinoma (LADC). Extensive gene and histopathology profiling show that the tumor organoids retain the histological architectures, genomic landscapes, and gene expression profiles of their parental tumors. Patient-derived lung cancer organoids are amenable for biomarker identification and high-throughput drug screening in vitro . This study should enable the generation of patient-derived lung cancer organoid lines, which can be used to further the understanding of lung cancer pathophysiology and to assess drug response in personalized medicine.
Although the concepts of relational and contractual governance in inter-organizational relationships have attracted academic and practitioner interest over the last decades, to date there have been limited comprehensive and systematic efforts to review, analyse and synthesise extant literature. We review and analyse 1,415 publications identified from a wide range of management disciplines and journals from 1990 to 2018. We deploy bibliographic and content analyses to offer a comprehensive literature analyses and synthesis and subsequently develop and position a multidimensional framework of exchange governance. The proposed framework covers existing conceptualisations of exchange governance and its diverse mechanisms, environmental dimensions influencing the use of exchange governance mechanisms and performance implications. We uncover areas that are currently under-studied and draw out fruitful future research avenues.
Emitting wavelength of cesium copper halides can be effectively tuned by regulating the process of mechanochemical reaction firstly.
Screen printing is an important technique for creating 2D conductive patterns with high conductivity and resolution. Non‐conductive additives are thus required in printable ink formulation in order to achieve appropriate viscosity and rheological behaviors. However, it is still a challenge to recover the conductivity of the printed networks after screen printing, while keeping the integrity of the patterns during repeated water‐washing. Herein, a series of post‐treatments are introduced into the washing process in order to achieve high‐quality silver nanowire (Ag NW) transparent conductive films. Screen‐printed patterns can be well maintained because of the enhanced adhesion between the Ag NW networks and flexible poly(ethylene terephthalate) substrates. High‐performance transparent conductive film with extremely low sheet resistance (0.72 Ω sq−1) is achieved by combining plasma treatment, thermal annealing, and high pressure, making screen‐printed Ag NW conductive networks promising to be used in the next‐generation flexible optoelectronic devices.
Organic photodetectors displaying efficient photoelectric response in the near-infrared are typically based on narrow bandgap active materials. Unfortunately, the latter require complex molecular design to ensure sufficient light absorption in the near-infrared region. Here, we show a method combining an unconventional device architecture and ad-hoc supramolecular self-assembly to trigger the emergence of opto-electronic properties yielding to remarkably high near-infrared response using a wide bandgap material as active component. Our optimized vertical phototransistors comprising a network of supramolecular nanowires of N,N′-dioctyl-3,4,9,10-perylenedicarboximide sandwiched between a monolayer graphene bottom-contact and Au nanomesh scaffold top-electrode exhibit ultrasensitive light response to monochromatic light from visible to near-infrared range, with photoresponsivity of 2 × 105 A/W and 1 × 102 A/W, at 570 nm and 940 nm, respectively, hence outperforming devices based on narrow bandgap materials. Moreover, these devices also operate as highly sensitive photoplethysmography tool for health monitoring.
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) monolayers have been widely used for optoelectronic devices because of their ultrasensitivity to light detection acquired from their direct gap properties. However, the small cross-section of photon absorption in the atomically thin layer thickness significantly limits the generation of photocarriers, restricting their performance. Here, we integrate monolayer WS2 with 2D perovskites Cs2AgBiBr6, which serve as the light absorption layer, to greatly enhance the photosensitivity of WS2. The efficient charge transfer at the Cs2AgBiBr6/WS2 heterojunction is evidenced by the shortened photoluminescence (PL) decay time of Cs2AgBiBr6. Scanning photocurrent microscopy of Cs2AgBiBr6/WS2/graphene reveals that improved charge extraction from graphene leads to an enhanced photoresponse. The 2D Cs2AgBiBr6/WS2/graphene vertical heterostructure photodetector exhibits a high detectivity (D*) of 1.5 × 1013 Jones with a fast response time of 52.3 μs/53.6 μs and an on/off ratio of 1.02 × 104. It is worth noting that this 2D heterostructure photodetector can realize self-powered light detection behavior with an open-circuit voltage of ∼0.75 V. The results suggest that the 2D perovskites can effectively improve the TMDC layer-based photodetectors for low-power consumption photoelectrical applications.
Lead‐free double perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6 has attracted significant research interests for optoelectronic applications because of its nontoxicity, inherent stability, and high detection sensitivity. In this work, the 2D Cs2AgBiBr6 with a thickness of ≈5 nm and lateral length larger than 50 µm is successfully fabricated by a space‐confined method. The fabricated ultra‐thin 2D Cs2AgBiBr6 exhibits significant advantages on photodetection, due to its enhanced light–matter interaction. Remarkably, compared with bulk Cs2AgBiBr6, 2D Cs2AgBiBr6‐based photodetectors exhibit dramatically improved optoelectronic properties including ultra‐high detectivity (D*) of 7.4 × 1014 Jones (more than ten times), photoresponsivity (R) of 54.6 A W−1 (exceeding 4.7 times), an on/off ratio of 7.4 × 104 (more than ten times), and a fast response time of ≈1.7 ms (exceeding 30 times). In addition, due to the strong photon recycling effect of Cs2AgBiBr6, optical properties in both light absorption and emission can be effectively engineered by the material thickness, which enables a tunable wavelength‐dependent photodetection. The results provide further insights on the light–matter interaction of environmentally friendly 2D perovskites related materials and shine light on their high‐performance optoelectrical applications.
Two‐dimensional (2D) semiconducting boron nanosheets (few‐layer borophene) have been theoretically predicted, but their band gap tunability has not been experimentally confirmed. In this study, hydroxy‐functionalized borophene (borophene‐OH) with tunable band gap was fabricated by liquid‐phase exfoliation using 2‐butanol solvent. Surface‐energy matching between boron and 2‐butanol produced smooth borophene, and the exposed unsaturated B sites generated by B−B bond breaking during exfoliation coordinated with OH groups to form semiconducting borophene‐OH, enabling a tunable band gap of 0.65–2.10 eV by varying its thickness. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) measurements demonstrated that the use of borophene‐OH to fabricate working electrodes for PEC‐type photodetectors significantly enhanced the photocurrent density (5.0 μA cm−2) and photoresponsivity (58.5 μA W−1) compared with other 2D monoelemental materials. Thus, borophene‐OH is a promising semiconductor with great optoelectronic potential.
