HighlightsWhat are the main findings?A 2 mol% Sn2+-doped CuFe2O4sensor was produced for DMMP detection.The sensor demonstrated suitable sensing performance and selectivity toward DMMP.What is the implication of the main finding?The superior response–recovery characteristics and enhanced moisture resistance compared to the undoped sensor are relevant in gas-sensing applications.Sarin poses a serious threat to human health, necessitating the development of an appropriate sensing technology.Sarin is an extremely toxic and fast-acting chemical warfare nerve agent that poses a serious threat to human health, necessitating the development of appropriate sensing technologies. Dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP), which has a chemical structure similar to that of sarin but is non-toxic, is often used as a simulation agent in related research. Among promising gas-sensing materials, CuFe2O4exhibits suitable thermal stability. It is easily produced and has low toxicity. Its performance can be enhanced using heterogeneous ion doping to increase the number of surface defects and content of adsorbed oxygen. Therefore, a solvothermal method was adopted in this study to prepare CuFe2O4hollow microspheres that were subsequently doped with different ratios of Sn4+or Sn2+. Detailed characterizations of the obtained materials were conducted, and the corresponding CuFe2O4-based gas sensors were fabricated. Their gas-sensing performance against DMMP was studied to analyze and discuss the gas-sensing and sensitization mechanisms associated with Sn4+and Sn2+doping. The CuFe2O4-based sensor doped with 2 mol% Sn2+exhibited excellent gas-sensing performance in response to a 1 ppm concentration of DMMP, with response and recovery times of 12 and 63 s, respectively. Notably, its response to 1 ppm DMMP (16.27) was 3.3-fold higher than that to 1 ppm 2-CEES (4.98). The doped CuFe2O4sensor exhibited superior response–recovery characteristics and enhanced moisture resistance compared to the undoped sensor.

Organic–inorganic metal halides have recently garnered significant interest owing to their excellent photoluminescence performance and high stability. Therefore, a synthetic procedure was designed here to obtain (PPZ)ZnBr 4 (PPZ = 1-phenylpiperazine) nanocrystals (NCs) incorporating Pb 2+ and Sn 2+ ions, obtaining blue and orange light emitters, respectively. Photoluminescence quantum yields of blue and orange emissions were up to 43.2% and 29.9%, respectively, under 365-nm excitation. The prepared NCs also demonstrated long-term stability and humidity resistance. This study not only provided a deep comprehension of low-dimensional perovskites, but also established an avenue for the strategic design of high-performance light-emitting perovskites.

TiO2 nanocrystal (NC)-based photoreversible color switching (PCS) materials, which are capable of actively responding to external light, have significant potential for use in printable rewritable paper in the creation of sustainable technologies. Reductive TiO2 NCs with high hole-scavenging capabilities can be obtained by surface disorder or lattice distortion, but achieving an optimum balance between them is still a great challenge to enable simultaneous retention of the photoreduction performance and visible light catalytic ability of the TiO2 NCs. Here, we demonstrated solvent-controlled synthesis of interstitial Sn2+-doped TiO2 NCs and investigated the effects of solvent-induced surface disorder and doping-induced lattice distortion on the PCS properties of the TiO2 NCs. The midgap state produced by surface disorder combines with the energy level produced by the interstitial Sn2+ dopants in TiO2 NCs to become the main center for photogenerated electron transfer. Thus, efficient PCS was achieved, with the number of switching cycles greatly increased. The ethylene glycol-synthesized TiO2 NCs with a Sn2+-doping concentration of ca. 3% are the most favorable catalyst for achieving PCS performance. The process of PCS can be repeated 48 times without any rest. The results of this work suggest an approach to the design and preparation of PCS materials that exhibit excellent scalability and outstanding reversible performance by using colloidal NCs with optimized surface composition, lattice structure, and particle size as key-functional photocatalysts.

Luminescent metal halides doped with ns2-metal ions, such as 6s2-metal Bi3+, show excellent optoelectronic properties. However, the origin of the high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of Cs2SnCl6:Bi remains controversial and unclear. In this study, a series of Cs2SnCl6:Bi were synthesized by adopting different tin precursors of SnCl2/SnCl4. The samples from SnCl2 exhibited much higher PLQY than those from SnCl4, and the doping concentrations of Bi3+ had little effect on the high PLQY. When H3PO2 is added to the precursor of SnCl4 to reduce Sn4+ to Sn2+, the prepared Cs2SnCl6:Bi shows bright emission light and high PLQY. The high PLQY of Cs2SnCl6:Bi is attributed to the co-doping of Bi3+ and Sn2+. [SnCl4]2− and two VCl induce a large extra vibrational energy of the heavy localized excitons from [BiCl5]2− to enhance the efficiency of radiative recombination for high PLQY. This work deepens the understanding of the luminescence mechanism of Cs2SnCl6:Bi and supplies significant references for developing more perovskite materials with outstanding luminescence.
