The unique morphology and structure significantly enhance the performance of photoelectric detection. Herein, titanyl phthalocyanine (TiOPc) coarse crystal and microspheres are obtained by a simple physical vapor deposition (PVD) method designed to produce TiOPc structures that undergo significant changes in the crystal structure. The photoelectric experimental results show that the photocurrent of TiOPc coarse crystal and microspheres increases with the increase of voltage and exhibits better stability compared to the raw materials. Under a bias voltage of 10 V, the photoresponsivity of microspheres reaches the maximum, which is 77 times that of raw materials. Under different monochromatic lights, the raw materials are most sensitive to red light (850 nm), with a photocurrent of 1.3556 × 10 −6 mA, but the coarse crystal/microspheres are most sensitive to blue light (455 nm) with photocurrents of 1.281 × 10 −5 mA/2.609 × 10 −5 mA, respectively. It is worth mentioning that although the photocurrent and responsivity of coarse crystal are slightly lower than those of microspheres, the response speed is faster, with a rise/fall time is 271 and 194 ms, respectively. The good photoelectric properties indicate the potential research value of TiOPc coarse crystal and microspheres in the field of photoelectric detection.

Organic–inorganic lead halide perovskite (MAPbX3, X = Cl, Br, I) single crystals exhibit superior optoelectrical and physical characteristics and have been developed in various optical and electrical applications. However, the poor stability against moisture and light remains the most critical demerit of perovskite materials. In this work, light- and waterproof MAPbBr3-MAPbBr3@PbBr(OH) core–shell single crystals were successfully synthesized by surface engineering-induced transformation from MAPbBr3 to MAPbBr3@PbBr(OH). In addition, an in situ electrode preparation method was developed to construct the Ag/MAPbBr3-MAPbBr3@PbBr(OH)/Ag structure during the crystal growing process. The thickness-adjustable MAPbBr3@PbBr(OH) shell can present dual shielding effects and not only sustains the MAPbBr3 single crystal core with the highest responsivity of 31 mA W1–, response time ∼47 ms, and a detection rate of 4.8 × 1011 Jones but also achieves the embedded MAPbBr3 nanocrystal with bright photoluminescence (quantum yield of 56.1%). Moreover, the similar MAPbCl3-MAPbBrnCl3–n@PbBr(OH) and MAPbI3-MAPbBrnI3–n@PbBr(OH) core–shell single crystals have been prepared, which also exhibit excellent photoresponsivity and high emission. This work provides an effective strategy for the fabrication of high-performance and environmentally stable photodetectors.

In this work, a negatively charged poly(3-sulfopropyl methacrylate potassium) (PSPMA) brush has been employed as a model system to demonstrate the tuning of the light response of strong polyelectrolyte brushes (SPBs) with counterions. The substitution of K+ counterions by azobenzene-containing counterions (Azo-N+) renders the PSPMA brush light-responsive in aqueous solutions. Nevertheless, the strength of the light response of the PSPMA brush is weak due to the inefficient disassembly of the micelle-like aggregates in the brush upon irradiation with ultraviolet light. Counterion mixtures of Azo-N+ and K+ are employed to realize a strong light response of the PSPMA brush by incorporating a reasonable amount of Azo-N+ counterions into the brush. The strength of the light response of the PSPMA brush can be tuned by the mole ratio of Azo-N+ to K+. Furthermore, properties including the hydration and conformation of the PSPMA brush can be reversibly switched via alternating ultraviolet and visible light irradiation. This work opens up the opportunities available for the use of counterions to tune the light response of SPBs.

Vitrimers represent a new class of smart materials. They are covalently crosslinked like thermosets, yet they can be reprocessed like thermoplastics. The underlying mechanism is the rapid exchange reactions which form new bonds while breaking the old ones. So far, heating is the most widely used stimulus to activate the exchange reaction. Compared to heating, light not only is much more convenient to achieve remote and regional control, but can also offer fast healing. Gold nanospheres are excellent photothermal agents, but they are difficult to disperse into vitrimers as they easily aggregate. In this paper, we use polydopamine to prepare gold nanospheres. The resultant polydopamine-coated gold nanospheres (GNS) can be well dispersed into epoxy vitrimers, endowing epoxy vitrimers with light responsivity. The composites can be reshaped permanently and temporarily with light at different intensity. Efficient surface patterning and healing are also demonstrated.Keywords:gold nanospheres;vitrimers;light responsive

With the rising demand for high-performance organic small-molecule semiconductor materials in optoelectronic devices, reconstructing specific morphologies of nano-phthalocyanines is of great significance. Herein, TiOPc ultrathin nanosheets (UNSs) and nanosheets (NSs) are reconstructed using a simple and effective physical vapor deposition (PVD) method. The thickness and lateral sizes of the UNSs are between 1 to 10 nm and 50–200 nm, respectively. The subsequent experimental results of photodetection exhibited that the photocurrent of UNSs/NSs is nearly four to five orders of magnitude higher than that of the raw materials at 10 V and show good stability. The photoresponsivity of the UNSs is about 3.37 × 10 4 times that of the raw materials, demonstrating good photoelectric conversion capability. Under different wavelengths, the photocurrents of the UNSs are consistently higher than those of the NSs and the raw materials. The NSs exhibit the fastest response speed, with rise and fall times of 194 ms and 193 ms, respectively, under 395 nm. Furthermore, the photoresponsive properties of the reconstructed UNSs and NSs are better than those of most other reported MPc materials. Our results indicate that TiOPc UNSs and NSs hold great application prospects in high-performance optoelectronic devices.

Perovskites have showed significant potential for the application in photodetectors due to their outstanding electrical and optical properties. Integrating two-dimensional (2D) materials with perovskites can make full use of the high carrier mobility of 2D materials and strong light absorption of perovskite to realize excellent optoelectrical properties. Here, we demonstrate a photodetector based on the WTe2/CsPbI3 heterostructure. The quenching and the shortened lifetime of photoluminescence (PL) for CsPbI3 perovskite confirms the efficient charge transfer at the WTe2/CsPbI3 heterojunction. After coupled with WTe2, the photoresponsivity of the CsPbI3 photodetector is improved by almost two orders of magnitude due to the high-gain photogating effect. The WTe2/CsPbI3 heterojunction photodetector reveals a large responsivity of 1157 A W−1 and a high detectivity of 2.1 × 1013 Jones. The results pave the way for the development of high-performance optoelectronic devices based on 2D materials/perovskite heterojunctions.

Bi 2 O 2 Se has attracted a lot of attention in the field of photodetection due to its ultra-high mobility and tunable band gap. However, the mechanism of controllable preparation of high-quality Bi 2 O 2 Se is unclear and needs further investigation. In this paper, the concentration of reactants in the substrate region was increased by the method of space-compression, the number of nucleation was effectively controlled, and larger size Bi 2 O 2 Se was obtained. And the nucleation and selenylation mechanisms of Bi 2 O 3 were revealed based on the effect of temperatures modificatives growth of Bi 2 O 2 Se. And the controlled growth was achieved in a certain thickness range by increasing the reactant concentration in the substrate region and controlling the nucleation number. Moreover, photodetectors were constructed based on the highly crystalline Bi 2 O 2 Se. The photodetector exhibited a photoresponsivity of up to 9550 A/W under the excitation of 405 nm light and obtained highly stable and recoverable characteristics with multiple laser switches.

In this study, we develop photoresponsive heterogeneous Cobalt-nickel-based MOFs (CoNi-MOFs), cobalt dioxide (CoO 2 ), and tungsten diselenide (WSe 2 ) hybrid device to improve the performance of photo-assisted supercapacitors. We measure the electrochemical characteristics of photo-assisted hybrid electrodes under both dark and light conditions using cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge–discharge. In dark, a high specific capacity (Qs) is estimated at 970 C/g, increased to 1230 C/g under the light in three-electrode assemblies. An FTO/CoNi-MOF@CoO 2 @WSe 2 /Electrolytes//PANI@AC/GS photo hybrid supercapacitors device is designed and measured in both conditions. The hybrid device showed Qs of 325 C/g in light conditions with energy and power densities of 72 Wh/kg and 827 W/kg, respectively. Even after undergoing 6000 cycles, it exhibited a capacity retention (CR) rate of 91 % and columbic efficiency of 93 %, indicating its exceptional durability as an energy storage device. Besides, the composite devices detect zearalenone in agricultural food samples. The optimal signal for Zearalenone in phosphate buffer solution was observed at pH 7.0, yielding the highest detected response. The sensor demonstrated a broad linear dynamic range of 1–300 μM and an impressively low detection limit of 0.5 nM for Zearalenone concentration. The CoNi-MOF@CoO 2 @WSe 2 nanocomposite has a remarkable sensitivity value of 110.72 mA/cm −2 /mM −1 and response against zearalenone in light. The findings also suggest that the capacitance of the CoNi-MOF@CoO 2 @WSe 2 electrode may increase at an optimal temperature. This likely occurs due to enhanced ion diffusion and charge transfer kinetics, which can improve the energy storage device’s efficiency and aid in identifying the cancerous part of the body.

Graphical Reversible photoresponsive alignment of liquid crystals was found upon UV/Vis light irradiation, and persistent stability of liquid crystals at fluid interfaces was obtained by using ionic liquids. This work demonstrates a noninvasive approach to control alignment of liquid crystals persistently and reversibly at fluid interfaces by using a photoresponsive azobenzene-based surfactant dissolved in an ionic liquid (IL), ethylammonium nitrate (EAN). As the first report on the orientational behavior of LCs at the IL/LC interface, our study also expands current understanding of alignment control of LCs at the aqueous/LC interface by adding electrolytes into aqueous solutions. The threshold concentration for switching the optical responses of LCs can be changed just by simply manipulating the ratio of EAN to H 2 O. This work will inspire fundamental studies and novel applications of using the LC-based imaging technique to investigate various chemical and biological events in ILs.

Here, a photoelectrochemical (PEC) photodetector with good flexibility and high photoresponsivity was successfully fabricated in a vertical structure, where the MXene (Ti2CTx) nanosheet and carbon black electrode were separated by adenosine triphosphate/nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (ATP/NADPH)-incorporated solid-state electrolyte. The photocurrent and photoresponsivity can reach 1.84 μA/cm2 and 8.89 μA/W, respectively, under a light intensity of 90 mW/cm2 at a bias potential of 0.6 V, which are approximately 2.3 times those of Ti2CTx nanosheets. The addition of ATP and NADPH to the electrolyte also leads to a large decrease of the rise time from 0.76 to 0.26 s. Furthermore, the photodetector can continue to function and maintain stability under 45° bending and after 500 cycles of bending, indicating a robust device structure and great flexibility. The performance enhancement of the PEC photodetector can be attributed to the synergistic effect of electrolyte additives on Ti2CTx nanosheets, where ATP and NADPH greatly enhance the circulation and utilization of photogenerated carriers. This work suggests that the incorporation of chloroplast-inspired carrier circulation with two-dimensional nanosheets could achieve efficient light-current conversion, providing a new strategy to improve the performance of PEC-type photodetectors.

Smart functional microgels hold great potential in a variety of applications, especially in drug transportation. However, current drug carriers based on physiological internal stimuli cannot efficiently orientate to designated locations. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce the self-propelled particles to the drug release of the microgels. In order to study self-propulsion of microgels induced by light, it is also a challenge to prepare micronsized microgels so that they can be observed directly under optical microscopes. In this work, phototactic microgels with photoresponsive properties are prepared. The microgel particles can be observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy. The photoresponsive properties of microgels are fully investigated by various instruments. Light can also regulate the state of the microgel solution, making it switch between turbidity and clarity. The phototaxis of particles irradiated by UV light was studied, which may be used for microgels enrichment and drug transportation and release.

Synthetic sandela 803 are widely used for creating a clean, fresh and healthy air environment. Nanomicelles based on amphiphilic block copolymers can encapsulate sandela 803 and release their fragrance sustainably and controllably. However, incompact nanostructure and excessively sensitive
controllable release limit their application. In this study, biocompatible and photo-responsive amphiphilic block copolymer PPMM10800-PEG2000 was synthesized to prepare nanomicelles for encapsulating sandela 803. The nanomicelles had dense structures due to the side chains in the hydrophobic
blocks. So, the sandela 803 was hardly released in the dark. Besides, the sandela 803 could be sustainably released with slow degradation of the hydrophobic side chain in the light. Finally, these nanomicelles were applied to wallpaper to prepare the sandela 803-loaded wallpaper, and the wallpaper
showed an excellent sustained and controlled released performance.
