The design of light-responsive peptide hydrogels with controllable drug release characteristics is still a challenge. Here, we fabricated a NIR light-responsive short peptide hydrogel by using a thermo-responsive short peptide hydrogel and PEGylated NbSe2 nanosheets, namely, the NbSe2–PEG@YD hydrogel. Under NIR light irradiation, the hydrogel began to collapse owing to the local heating, leading to the release of the cargos. The hydrogel exhibited recoverability and the release rate of the cargos could be accurately modulated by the NIR light irradiation according to the requirement. The excellent biocompatibility of this hydrogel ensured that it could be further developed as a drug carrier for clinical application.

Aim: To develop a H2O2/near-infrared (NIR) laser light-responsive nanoplatform (manganese-doped Prussian blue@polypyrrole [MnPB@PPy]) for synergistic chemo/photothermal cancer theranostics. Materials & methods: Doxorubicin (DOX) was loaded onto the surface of polypyrrole shells. The in vitro and in vivo MRI performance and anticancer effects of these nanoparticles (NPs) were evaluated. Results: The MnPB@PPy NPs could not only generate heat under NIR laser irradiation for cancer photothermal therapy but also act as an excellent MRI contrast agent. The loaded DOX could be triggered to release by both NIR light and H2O2 to enhance synergistic therapeutic efficacy. The antitumor effects were confirmed by in vitro cellular cytotoxicity assays and in vivo treatment in a xenograft tumor model. Conclusion: The designed H2O2/NIR light-responsive MnPB@PPy-DOX NPs hold great potential for future biomedical applications.

Photo-controlled release hydrogel provides a new strategy for treating tumours. Under the stimulation of external light sources, the ability to release the entrapped drug on time and space on demand has outstanding advantages in improving drug utilisation, optimising treatment, and reducing toxicity and side effects. In this study, a photo-controlled drug delivery system for disulphide cross-linked polyaspartic acid (PASP-SS) hydrogels encapsulating proteinase K (ProK) adsorbed with platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) was designed. The injectable cysteamine-modified polyaspartic acid (PASP-SH) sol and PtNPs adsorbed by ProK (ProK-PtNPs) as regulatory factors were prepared. Then, ProK-PtNPs and lentinan were dissolved in the sol, and the oxidant was added to the matrix to form the gel in situ quickly after injection. Finally, the degradation of PASP-SS hydrogel by ProK and the controllability of drug release under near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation were elucidated. In vitro degradation of hydrogels and drug release experiments showed that the degradation rate of PASP-SS hydrogel significantly increased and the drug release rate increased significantly under near-infrared radiation. The results of cytotoxicity test showed that PASP-SS, ProK-PtNPs, and lentinan all had more than 90% cell survival rate on NIH3T3, and the lentinan released from the carrier obviously inhibited the proliferation of MCF7. PASP hydrogel has the potential to respond to on-demand light control.

Photocatalytic selective oxidation of hydrocarbons to oxygenated chemicals greatly relies on catalytic materials that show high efficiency of photogenerated holes and electrons separation and visible light absorption capacity. We, herein, report one facile calcination approach with ammonium chloride and melamine as the template to synthesize nitrogen-modified Nb2O5 nanomeshes material (Nb2O5-N), which exhibits a 37-fold reaction rate larger than its commercial counterpart in photocatalytic oxidation of toluene into benzaldehyde under visible light irradiation. The reactivity is ascribed to an extended absorption spectrum within 700 nm by nitrogen modification. In addition, photocurrent response results suggest that a relaxation effect induced by nanomesh structure is beneficial for the separation of charge carriers for enhanced reactivity. This work sheds light on regulating the structure of metal oxides and the application of nanomesh materials in photocatalytic hydrocarbon conversion.

We describe a route to the preparation of (metal yolk)/(porous ceria shell) nanostructures through the heterogeneous growth of ceria on porous metal nanoparticles followed by the calcination-induced shrinkage of the nanoparticles. The approach allows for the control of the ceria shell thickness, the metal yolk composition and size, which is difficult to realize through common templating approaches. The yolk/shell nanostructures with monometallic Pt and bimetallic PtAg yolks featuring plasmon-induced broadband light absorption in the visible region are rationally designed and constructed. The superior photocatalytic activities of the obtained nanostructures are demonstrated by the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol under visible light. The excellent activities are ascribed to the synergistic effects of the metal yolk and the ceria shell on the light absorption, electron-hole separation and efficient mass transfer. Our synthesis of the (metal yolk)/(porous ceria shell) nanostructures points out a way to the creation of sophisticated heteronanostructures for high-performance photocatalysis.

Here, light and ferric ion (Fe3+) responsive fluorochromic hydrogels with high strength and self-healing ability were designed and synthesized. The hydrogels were prepared via physical crosslinking of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), in the presence of γ-cyclodextrin-spiropyran (γ-CD-SP) and tannic acid (TA). By utilizing the hydrogen bonding interaction between the γ-CD moiety and PVA chain, the fluorophore γ-CD-SP could be incorporated into the PVA gel successfully. Owing to photo-isomerization of the SP moiety, the hydrogel showed “on/off” fluorescence behavior upon ultraviolet/bright light irradiation. Moreover, the fluorescence emission of the hydrogel could also be turned off in the presence of Fe3+ by fluorescence inner filter effects, and then recovered by adding EDTA. The hydrogel possessed high tensile strength (i.e. 2.18 MPa) and self-healing ability. With the features of high strength, self-healing, and tunable fluorescence properties, the hydrogels would have potential applications in wearable devices, fluorescent sensors, and optical switches.

Achieving efficient blue emission with spectrum stability in perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) is a great challenge, although the external quantum efficiency (EQE) of PeLEDs for red and green emission has exceeded 20%. Here, we report efficient sky-blue PeLEDs with high brightness based on mixed-ligand confined quasi-2D perovskites. By detailed characterization of the optical and physicochemical properties of n-butylammonium (BA) or 2-phenylethylammonium (PEA)-based perovskites with various alkyl ammonium bromides as co-ligands, it is found that the molecular size and charge on the amino-groups of the co-ligand hold the key to constructing effective mixed-ligand systems. Accordingly, dimethylammonium (DMA) is an ideal co-ligand in both BA- and PEA-based quasi-2D perovskites. Thanks to its appropriate molecular size, DMA could help to confine the diameter of perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) and improve their dispersity in organic ligands. Besides, DMA is prone to disperse among PEA or BA molecules to cap the perovskite synergistically, and the phase of n = 1 caused by excess co-ligands could be effectively avoided benefiting from the relatively weak coordination ability of DMA due to the relatively small positive charge on amino-groups. The optimized PeLEDs based on BA2DMA1.6Cs2Pb3Br11.6 and PEA2DMA1.2Cs2Pb3Br11.2 exhibit color-stable sky-blue (490 nm) and bluish green (499 nm) emission with a record maximum luminance of 2825 and 7760 cd m−2 respectively. The applicability of this approach in the red emission region is also demonstrated, which provides a versatile strategy for full spectrum modulation.

Graphical Reuse, recycle : A benzodithiophenedione-based conjugated microporous polymer (CMP-BDD) was synthesized which showed effective heterogeneous catalytic activity for typical oxidative organic transformations, such as selective oxidation of organic sulfides and thiocyanation of imidazoheterocycles in the presence of light and oxygen. In addition, the polymer exhibited good recyclability in the photocatalytic oxidation of thioanisole. Searching for catalysts that are cost-effective, efficient, recyclable and capable of harvesting light for aerobic oxidation reactions remains a challenge for material scientists. Herein, we have designed and developed a task-specified heterogeneous photocatalyst, which was built by a two-step reaction starting from a commercially available compound named benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′] dithiophene-4,8-dione (BDD). Through the molecular engineering strategy integrating an electron-output BDD, the obtained BDD-based conjugated microporous polymer (CMP-BDD) exhibits efficient visible light absorption due to the incorporation of a BDD moiety and an extended π-conjugated structure. Remarkably, the CMP-BDD showed an effective heterogeneous catalytic activity for typical oxidative organic transformations, such as selective oxidation of organic sulfides, and thiocyanation of imidazoheterocycles in the presence of light and oxygen. In addition, the CMP-BDD exhibited good recyclability in the photocatalytic oxidation of thioanisole, which can be used for at least five times without substantial decline in photocatalytic activity, demonstrating its promising potential in industrial applications.

Recently, metal halide perovskite quantum dots (QDs) have been becoming a kind of promising efficient luminescent material and drawn remarkable attention in the development of light-emitting devices. However, during the fabrication process of perovskite QDs based light emitting diodes (Pe-QLED), the vacuum processing is necessary for constructing of perovskite QDs/charge transport layer (CTL) structure. Taking the large-scale production into consideration, the all-solution processed Pe-QLED have great potential, but remain great challenge. Herein, we show that by employing hydrofluoroethers (such as HFE 7100) as the orthogonal solvent, the perovskite QDs/CTL multilayer structure can be effectively obtained via solution process, thus promoting the successful fabrication of all-solution Pe-QLED. Through the surface fluorous ligand modification, ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) are directly dispersed in HFE 7100 and used for solution processed electron transport layer. As the result, all-solution processed CsPbBr 3 Pe-QLEDs have been realized with the performance of a luminance of 1661 cd/m 2 , a peak EQE of 0.37%, and a peak CE of 0.72 cd/A. These results indicate that our strategy is highly effective in the development of high-performance all-solution processed perovskite based optoelectronic devices.

Epoxy resins are the main encapsulation materials for light-emitting diodes (LEDs) due to their high transparency, appropriate mechanical strength, and excellent thermal stability. However, environmentally benign materials needed to be developed with improving performances. Transparent wood and its nanocomposites prepared from natural biomass are potential alternative materials to them. Green preparation of transparent wood incorporating with trichromatic systems is an attractive topic, especially for white LEDs (W-LEDs). Here, multiple-color-emission carbon dots (CDs), serving as trichromatic systems in W-LEDs, were synthesized by tuning the extent of graphitization and surface function of the nanoparticles using citric acid and urea as feedstocks. Then, a green, facile, and energy-efficient method for the preparation of carbon dots/transparent wood (CDs-TW) composites was raised by the ultrafast removing of lignin from wood using deep eutectic solvent (DES, oxalic acid and choline chloride) under microwave-assisted treatment, and then, CDs and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) were filled into the delignified wood through an in situ polymerization. The transparent wood film embedding multicolor CDs was fabricated, which showed white light emission under ultraviolet light excitation and enhanced mechanical tensile strength (60.92 MPa). Simultaneously, the as-prepared film can be used as an encapsulation film for white LEDs, which exhibited excellent color characteristics with the Commission Internationale Eclairage (CIE) color coordinates, a correlated color temperature (CCT), and a color rendering index (CRI) of (0.33, 0.32), 5237 K, and 83, respectively. This provides a simple route to prepare metal-free wood-based encapsulating materials for W-LEDs.

With the development of nanotechnology, nanomaterials have been widely applied in anti-bacterial coating, electronic device, and personal care products. NanoZnO is one of the most used materials and its ecotoxicity has been extensively studied. To explore the potential phototoxicity of nanoZnO induced by visible light, we conducted a long-term experiment on litter decomposition of Typha angustifolia leaves with assessment of fungal multifaceted natures. After 158 d exposure, the decomposition rate of leaf litter was decreased by nanoZnO but no additional effect by visible light. However, visible light enhanced the inhibitory effect of nanoZnO on fungal sporulation rate due to light-induced dissolution of nanoZnO. On the contrary, enzymes such as β-glucosidase, cellobiohydrolase, and leucine-aminopeptidase were significantly increased by the interaction of nanoZnO and visible light, which led to high efficiency of leaf carbon decomposition. Furthermore, different treatments and exposure time separated fungal community associated with litter decomposition. Therefore, the study provided the evidence of the contribution of visible light to nanoparticle phototoxicity at the ecosystem level.

Coenzyme regeneration is important for the industrial utilization of oxidoreductase. In this work, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) was regenerated under visible light via a photosensitizer and an electron donor. First, several photosensitizers including 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP), zinc porphyrin (ZnTCPP) and eosin Y (EY) with varied concentrations were compared. Next, using TCPP as the photosensitizer, the type and concentration of the electron donor, pH value and concentration of the buffer system for the reaction were optimized. Following that, TCPP was immobilized onto the surface of various supports for screening. Then, the immobilization conditions were optimized and the photocatalytic performance of silica-attached TCPP was studied. Lastly, the effect of a rhodium mediator on NADH regeneration was evaluated. The results show that the optimum concentration of TCPP, ZnTCPP and EY was 2, 1 and 4 mM, respectively, and the highest NADH yield of the TCPP system was 2.37 and 1.47 times those of the ZnTCPP and EY systems. With TCPP as the photosensitizer, triethanolamine was the most efficient electron donor and its appropriate concentration was 5 mM. The optimal pH value and concentration of the phosphate buffer was 7.0 and 0.05 M. Under these conditions, a high NADH yield of 81.5% was achieved after 60 min. For the supports examined, the thiol-containing silica microspheres coated with polydopamine and polyethyleneimine had the highest loading capacity of TCPP (9.15 mg per g-support). Via sensitization, the NADH yield was 9.64% after 90 min and was upgraded to 22.5% with the addition of the rhodium mediator.
