Constructing micro-/nanostructure-modulated photofields in upconversion devices to absorb low-energy photons and emit high-energy light is revolutionary for bioimaging, lasers, and photovoltaics, with proven capability to boost upconversion luminescence (UCL) by orders of magnitude. However, photoenergy dissipation and inadequate absorption result in excitation thresholds exceeding 1 mW/cm 2 , which exceeds retinal safety limits and hinders wearable upconversion optics. Here, we report the use of upconversion core-shell microsphere-induced infrared field convergence, NaYF 4 :Yb,Er shell-based resonant cavities for multiple reflection-absorption-upconversion and photonic crystal amplifiers to improve UCL intensity three orders of magnitude, and achieve ultralow threshold (0.0025 mW/cm 2 ). The 500 nm upconversion core-shell microspheres generated 1200-fold stronger electric field through concentrated photofield and attained 8-fold infrared absorption with a forward/backward emission ratio of 150. Fabricated upconversion contact lenses significantly improved dark-light imaging clarity and vision restoration in retinal degeneration rabbits. Microsphere-mediated directional upconversion strategy maximizes photoenergy utilization, paving the way for high-performance wearable upconversion devices.

Swimming microrobots that are actuated by multiple stimuli/fields display various intriguing collective behaviors, ranging from phase separation to clustering and giant number fluctuation; however, it is still chanllenging to achieve multiple responses and functionalities within one colloidal system to emulate high environmental adaptability and improved tasking capability of natural swarms. In this work, a weak ion-exchange based swarm is presented that can self-organize and reconfigure by chemical, light, and magnetic fields, showing living crystal, amorphous glass, liquid, chain, and wheel-like structures. By changing the frequency and strength of the rotating magnetic field, various well-controlled and fast transformations are obtained. Experiments show the high adaptability and functionality of the microrobot swarm in delivering drugs in confined spaces, such as narrow channels with turns or obstacles. The drug-carrying swarm exhibits excellent chemtherapy for Hela and CT26 cells due to the pH-enhanced drug release and locomotion. This reconfigurable microswarm provides a new platform for biomedical and environmental applications.

The ability of controlled pitch variation can give more forms of motion to the micro-rotor. By combining the photothermal conversion material CNTs with temperature-sensitive hydrogel material, the hydrogel can be driven by light to produce a recoverable and controlled deformation, which is verified by the swimming of a bionic jellyfish. Furthermore, we innovatively apply the variable pitch form of helicopters to the motion of micro-propellers. The magnetic field is used to power the rotation of the micro-rotor robot, and the light illumination provides the pitch variation capability to facilitate the manipulation of the motion behavior of the micro-rotor robot. Driven by a magnetic and optical coupling field, the ascending and descending of micro-propellers carrying objects are achieved. Our design provides a novel idea for the control strategy of micro-robots.

The use of multiple pesticides in agriculture has caused mixed residues, complicating food safety testing. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) offers high sensitivity and fingerprinting capabilities for pesticide detection; however,its application is limited by spot size, uneven sample distribution, spectral analysis challenges in mixed samples, and the lack of integrated automated systems for sample preparation, detection, and analysis. Hence, we developed a SERS microfluidic chip integrated with plasmonic microsphere lens arrays, which integrates optical field-modulated microspheres and plasmonic nanostructures to realise the transition of SERS detection from point-hotspots to uniform area-hotspots, achieving high-sensitivity, high-stability Raman detection under wide-field laser excitation. Moreover, a comprehensive a sample-to-answer total analysis system was established with this chip as the core, incorporating the micro-QuEChERS pretreatment module for efficient extraction of pesticides in complex matrices and the random forest-dual annealing spectral parsing algorithm for mixed spectral analysis. The results indicate that the limits of detection for 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, acetamiprid, and thiabendazole were 1.15 nM, 0.63 nM, and 0.69 nM, respectively. The linear ranges were 10⁻⁴–10⁻⁹ M, with R² values of 0.9982, 0.9989, and 0.9996, respectively. Average recoveries ranged from 90.8 % -104.66 %, 89.1 %-107.89 %, and 89.73 %-108.4 %, respectively, with relative standard deviations below 8 %. The algorithm quantified mixed pesticides with mean absolute percentage errors of 4.96 %, 5.35 %, and 7.72 %, respectively. The system showed 3 s detection response and 15-minute analysis time. Thus, the method provides a rapid, on-site solution for detecting mixed pesticides in complex matrices by exceptional optical performance and automated processing functionality.
