Passive radiative cooling is an environmentally friendly and energy-free cooling method, but the practical application of radiative cooling materials is still limited by high costs and cumbersome preparation processes. Here, low-cost and chemically stable polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) was selected as the raw material and porous P-PVDF films for daytime radiative cooling were prepared by a simple phase separation method. A solar reflectivity of 95.6% and an atmospheric window emissivity of 99.1% were obtained, resulting in high-performance radiative cooling without a metal reflective layer. A cooling power of 69.43 W · m − 2 was achieved in direct sunlight, achieving sub-ambient cooling of 4.2°C. This work provides a unique solution for radiative cooling materials, which is expected to be implemented in practical applications of passive radiative cooling.

In recent years, lead-free metal halide luminescent materials have attracted extensive attention because of their excellent properties including but not limited to good environmental compatibility, ultrawide emission band, and high photoluminescence quantum yield. They are considered to have great application potential in the photoelectric field. We modified the previously reported synthesis and prepared pure phase Cs2SnCl6 : Bi3 + , Te4 + using simple solution method. Then the emitter was further coated with polysiloxane to form polysiloxane luminescent ceramic (PSOLC). The prepared PSOLCs have almost the same luminescence as the powders, and their color coordinates and color temperature can be tuned freely by adjusting the ratio of blue and yellow emission, which both encourage outdoor-lighting application. Additionally, they are demonstrated to support flexible luminescence and show highly improved machinability. To test their performance in practical application, we apply the PSOLCs to safety identification board and finally get a satisfactory result, directly indicating that the PSOLCs prepared from lead-free perovskite are quite suitable for flexible-lighting-related display applications.

Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) play a significant role in catalysis, biosensor, antibacterial activity, SERS spectroscopy, and photoelectric materials. These prominent applications are strongly dependent on the size and uniformity of Ag NPs. However, a variety of preparation methods such as electrochemical and green synthesis methods are of difficulties to obtain extra-small and uniform Ag NPs due to complex growth environment, which is prone to render anisotropy of nanoparticles thereby limiting the development of Ag NPs. To address the unmet need, tremendous effort has been made synthesizing extra-small Ag NPs with the outstanding monodispersity and remarkable stability in reverse micelles. The efficient and facile method is established employing a high-performance protective agent, i.e., octadecylamine (ODA) with the average diameter of 3.36 ± 1.0 nm. Moreover, by adjusting octadecylamine concentration, the versatile method has the capability of controlling the size of Ag NPs precisely. In addition, the growth mechanism of Ag NPs based on nucleation theory is described schematically, which is of widespread generality to adapt our method for the preparation of other nanoparticles in the similar system. Overall, the promising strategy to the synthesis of extra-small Ag NPs lays a solid foundation for potential applications in wound healing, health care, medical diagnosis, and environmental remediation.

Polyvinyl pyrrolidone- (PVP) and ethylene glycol- (EG) coated water dispersible mesoporous CaF2:Eu3+,Li+ nanocrystals were synthesized by a simple one-pot hydrothermal method. The role of Li+ ions on the morphology and spectra in the CaF2 nanocrystals have been reported. The synthesized nanocrystals were monodisperse with regular sphere-like shapes and exhibited obvious hollow mesoporous structure. The results from x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy determined the successful incorporation of Eu3+ ions and Li+ ions into the CaF2 host lattice. The excitation and emission intensity of Eu3+ enhanced with Li+ concentration until 7 mol.%. The nanocrystals could disperse in water for more than a month due to the EG and PVP molecules coated over the nanocrystals.

Highly active and sensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates were prepared by n -type (1 to 10 Ω⋅cm in resistivity) porous silicon (PS) substrates of Ag nanoparticles. SERS studies were carried on these substrates with R6G as a test molecule with a λ ex =785 nm laser. We optimized the fabrication procedure, which is easy and rapid, for nanostructured silver particles on the surface of PS. The maximum of SERS enhancement for R6G is observed for PS with an anodization current density of 6 mA/cm 2 and an etching time of 8 min. The detection limit for R6G absorbed on Ag-coated PS (Ag-PS) is 10 nM and SERS spectra show that the Ag-PS substrate has high SERS activity. The larger pore diameter of this new Ag-PS substrate is expected and the size of the pore diameter is about 1.2 μm, which permits better biomolecule infiltration. This new Ag-PS substrate can be applied in SERS in biochemical and biomedical fields.

Cellular senescence is an irreversible and multifaceted process inducing tissue dysfunction and organismal aging, and thus the clearance of senescent cells can prevent or delay the onset of aging-related pathologies. Herein, we developed an augmented photothermal therapy strategy integrated with an antibody against β2-microglobulin (aB2MG) and an immune adjuvant imiquimod (R837) to effectively accelerate senescent cell apoptosis and clearance under a near-infrared light. With this strategy, the designed CroR@aB2MG enables the targeting of senescent cells and the application of photothermal therapy concomitantly, the initiation of immune clearance subsequently, and finally the realization of protective effects against senescence. Our results showed that the photo-induced heating effect caused senescent cells to quickly undergo apoptosis and the synchronous immune response accelerated the clearance of senescent cells in vitro and in vivo . Therefore, this photoactivated speedy clearing strategy may provide an efficient way for the treatment of senescence-related diseases by eliminating senescent cells with biomaterials.

Three-dimensional visualization of the innervation in skeletal muscles is helpful for understanding the morphological structure and function. iDISCO, a whole-mount immunolabeling and clearing technique, provides a valuable tool for volume imaging of intramuscular nerve fibers but suffers from the nonspecific staining caused by the anti-mouse secondary antibody when using the murine primary antibody. We developed a modified iDISCO method by introducing pretreatment of ScaleCUBIC-1 reagent, termed m-iDISCO. The m-iDISCO method could eliminate the nonspecific staining and achieve uniform and complete labeling of nerve fibers in various muscles with mouse anti-neurofilament primary antibody. Combining the m-iDISCO method with light-sheet microscopy enabled us to visualize the innervation of adult mouse tibialis anterior and trace the nerve fibers from extramuscular branches to intramuscular terminal branches. This method represents an effective alternative for studying the innervation of intact skeletal muscles in health and disease.

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), as a great potential label-free tool in metabolite detection, offers a strategy for rapid bacterial identification. However, it still lacks experimentally supported spectral interpretation at the metabolite level for complex biosamples. We present a SERS-based method for reliable bacterial intracellular metabolic profiling using plasmonic colloids with high rapidness and cost-efficiency. A convolutional neural network model was constructed to accurately classify eight types of bacteria with an overall accuracy as high as 90.44% and identify the key spectral features for classification by Shapley Additive Explanations. Molecule-level interpretation of the SERS metabolic profiles has been further realized in combination with laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry, evidencing the primary metabolite contribution to the bacterial spectral signatures and molecule-level distinctions among different bacterial types. We provide insights into the mechanism of bacterial identification by label-free SERS and pave the way for interpretable SERS diagnostic tools for various diseases.

A laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy-coupled optical system is reported to demodulate digitally encoded suspension array in fluoroimmunoassay. It takes advantage of the plasma emissions of assembled elemental materials to digitally decode the suspension array, providing a more stable and accurate recognition to target biomolecules. By separating the decoding procedure of suspension array and adsorption quantity calculation of biomolecules into two independent channels, the cross talk between decoding and label signals in traditional methods had been successfully avoided, which promoted the accuracy of both processes and realized more sensitive quantitative detection of target biomolecules. We carried a multiplexed detection of several types of anti-IgG to verify the quantitative analysis performance of the system. A limit of detection of 1.48×10−10 M was achieved, demonstrating the detection sensitivity of the optical demodulation system.

We studied the knockdown activity and lethal toxicity of 6 essential oil compounds—methyl salicylate, linalool, 2-phenethyl alcohol, eugenol, β-citronellol, and trans-cinnamaldehyde—as fumigants against adult female Culex pipiens pallens in the laboratory. Of the 6 products tested, trans-cinnamaldehyde was the most toxic (LC50 = 0.26 µl/l air, 24 h) with a slow knockdown time (KT95 = 176.5 min at 0.5 µl/l air). Methyl salicylate displayed a lower toxicity (LC50 = 1.17 µl/l air, 24 h) but the fastest knockdown activity (KT95 = 16.8 min) at the sublethal concentration 0.5 µl/l air. Furthermore, the binary mixture of methyl salicylate and trans-cinnamaldehyde exhibited a combined effect of fast knockdown activity and high toxicity against Cx. p. pallens adults, showing potential for development as natural fumigants for mosquito control.

The objective is to investigate the effects of two different sized (60 and 100 nm) titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) penetration and accumulation in in vitro human normal lung (NL) tissue, lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) tissue, and 650-nm diode laser-pretreated tissue on their optical properties studied with optical coherence tomography monitoring and diffuse reflectance (DR) spectra measurement. As with TiO2 NPs penetrating into the tissues, the intensities of DR of the samples increase, and then the enhancements of DR and the attenuation coefficients of the tissues were quantitatively calculated. The results suggest that 650-nm diode laser pretreatment increased the amounts of TiO2 NPs penetration and accumulation in NL and LSCC tissues, and the tissue optical properties were significantly influenced by accumulation of TiO2 NPs.

A fiber-optic carbon monoxide (CO)-sensing system with high sensitivity was proposed by combining Fabry–Perot interferometer (FPI) sensor with sensing material Au/ZnO. The sensitivity is 814 pm / % within the CO concentration range of 0% to 4%. The FPI sensor was fabricated by inserting single-mode fiber into a partially polymer-filled glass capillary to form an air cavity; the length of the air cavity is 76.83 μm. The temperature sensitivity of the FPI is −2.7 nm / ° C, which provides better conditions for measurement of CO. The catalyst Au/ZnO was prepared by coprecipitation, which could catalyze the oxidation of CO at ambient temperature and humidity. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope analysis were employed to reveal the crystalline structure and morphology of the catalyst. To eliminate the influence of ambient temperature change on the accuracy of the concentration test, a fiber Bragg grating with central wavelength of 1550.24 nm was introduced in the experimental setup for the temperature compensation.
