Entropy engineering strategies provide a broader platform for exploring the behavior of electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption materials and their absorption mechanisms on the microscopic scale. In this work, a novel entropy engineering strategy was developed to improve the EMW absorption properties of MoS2. A hierarchical N-doped carbon nanofiber/MoS2 (NCNF/MS) composite was synthesized using the electrospinning and hydrothermal methods. Then, the conformational entropy of MoS2 was increased by sequentially integrating elements such as W, Se, and Te. Although MoS2 maintains a single 2H-phase structure throughout the entropy increase process, it triggers a series of complex changes at the microscopic level, including lattice distortion, ingenious electronic structure adjustments, and an increase in defect density. These changes provide more possibilities for the EMW interaction with the absorber, which significantly enhances the dielectric behavior of the composites, including conduction and polarization losses. Owing to the unique hierarchical structure and rich defect structure, the obtained entropy-increased NCNF/MWSST exhibits excellent EMW absorption performance. The minimum reflection loss reaches −60.7 dB, and the maximum effective absorption bandwidth is 6.48 GHz, which is improved by almost 584% and 810% compared to NCNF/MS. This study provides a new way to design efficient and high-performance MoS2-based absorbers and provides valuable insights for exploring the entropy-increasing strategies to optimize the EMW absorption properties.

Lead selenide colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) are widely used in infrared photodetectors due to their size-dependent bandgap tunability, facile solution-processing techniques and low cost. Heterojunctions (HJs) are usually used to construct device to facilitate the separation of excitons and the transportation of photogenerated carriers. Based on the solution-processed HJ photodetector ITO/ZnO/PbSe/Ag, in which PbSe CQDs layer acts as the active layer and ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) layer as the electron-transporting layer, a greatly enhanced-performance was obtained after inserting 10 nm Ag NPs layer within the ZnO NPs layer close to the HJ ZnO/PbSe interface. By optimizing the concentration of Ag NPs solutions and the location of Ag NPs thin layer in ZnO film, the maximum responsivity of the self-driven HJ photodetector ITO/ZnO(50 nm):Ag-NPs(10 nm):ZnO(50 nm)/PbSe(300 nm)/Ag reaches to 6.25 mA/W with a specific detectivity D * of 5.17 × 10 11 Jones under 8.5 μ W / c m ² 1550 nm illumination at zero bias. Further, the underlain physical mechanisms for the enhanced-performance were discussed in details. In this way, it provides a very efficient method for enhanced-performance self-driven HJ photodetectors by inserting a thin layer of metal NPs into the electron-transporting layer close to the heterojunction interface.

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are considered to have remarkable electromagnetic (EM) wave attenuation due to their perfect dielectric property and graphene-like structure, but they still often fail to function due to impedance mismatch problems. Here, using a multilayer coating strategy, we prepared flower-like Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @MoSe 2 absorbers with core–shell structure. SiO 2 can form the Fe 3 O 4 -SiO 2 and SiO 2 -MoSe 2 heterogeneous interfaces when it is applied to the Fe 3 O 4 surface as an impedance matching layer in the Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @MoSe 2 composite, increasing the interfacial polarization loss to the absorber. In addition, Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 as a magnetic core also reduces the relative density of the substance compared to Fe 3 O 4 . Products with the absorption performance of various electromagnetic waves were produced by varying the amount of magnetic components (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 ) in the absorber. With a minimal reflect loss (RL) of − 51.86 dB and an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB, RL < -10 dB) of 4.96 GHz at a matching thickness of 1.8 mm, the Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @MoSe 2 (sample S3) demonstrated exceptional properties in EM wave absorption. In addition, we synthesized Fe 3 O 4 @MoSe 2 and determined its RL value and maximum EAB (EAB max ) in order to highlight the significance of the impedance matching layer SiO 2 . Fe 3 O 4 @MoSe 2 appears to perform less well than Fe 3 O4@SiO 2 @MoSe 2 in terms of EM wave absorption, with a minimal RL value of -50.20 dB and an EAB max of only 2.00 GHz at the matching thickness of 4.8 mm. The remarkable properties in EM wave absorption of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @MoSe 2 is the result of the combined effect from impedance match and loss mechanisms of various compositions, so the component SiO 2 has a non-negligible function as an impedance matching layer. This study has blazed the trail for developing the lightweight and excellent performance of absorbers.

Due to the component advantages and structural features, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonic acid) (PEDOT:PSS) based inorganic–organic composite films shows huge application potential in various fields. However, there are few reports on the bi-functions of thermoelectric (TE) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding for the PEDOT:PSS-based functional films. Herein, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs)-derived Bi x Se y @C sheets with average size about ∼ 7.32 μm are obtained via the solvothermal reaction and selenization pyrolysis treatment, and then flexible free-standing Bi x Se y @C/PEDOT: PSS (BSCP) composite films are obtained by a feasible vacuum filtration combined with cold pressing treatment, using different contents of Bi x Se y @C content as inorganic component. Micrometer Bi x Se y @C sheets are uniformly dispersed in the PEDOT:PSS matrix constructing bi-functional composite films with unique layered structure. When the MOFs-derived Bi x Se y @C content is 70%, BSCP-70 composite film gets a power factor of 11.23 μW m −1 K −2 at 340 K. Meanwhile, the BSCP-70 composite film reaches the highest average total EMI shielding effectiveness (SE T ) value of 45.0 dB at only 41.9 μm thickness at X-band. Based on multi-physical properties of MOF-derived Bi x Se y @C and PEDOT:PSS, flexible Bi x Se y @C/PEDOT:PSS composite films display good application potentiality in the flexible TE devices and EMI shielding protection.

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) based on TiO2 nanotube/nanoparticle (NT/NP) photoanodes and Cu2SnSe3 (CTSe) counter electrodes were fabricated. The effect of the thickness of the CTSe films on the DSSC performance was investigated. It was found that DSSC efficiencies firstly increased and then decreased with increasing the film thickness. The optimized DSSC efficiency of 3.14% was achieved at a suitable film thickness (2.9 μm). This work presents a new approach for developing low-cost alternative for expensive Pt in TiO2-nanotube-based DSSCs.

BiCuSeO oxyselenides possess a highlighted thermoelectric performance among oxides, which originates from their intrinsically low thermal conductivity. However, intrinsic factors causing low thermal transport are also detrimental to carrier transport, leading to ultralow carrier mobility and relatively low electrical transport properties. Here, high-conductivity single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are adopted as the charge channels to be embedded in a BiCuSeO-based matrix, providing a transport pathway for charge carriers. The results show that carrier mobility is increased to 188 cm 2 V −1 s −1 due to the SWCNTs composited, triggering an enhancement in electrical transport properties. Besides, the SWCNTs embedded in the matrix introduce abundant interfaces, suppressing phonon transport and depressing lattice thermal conductivity. With these achievements, a maximum zT of 0.84 at 818 K is realized in the composite with 0.1 wt% SWCNTs. The mechanical property of the composites is strengthened as well because of the SWCNTs. The work indicates that the SWCNTs, as the charge channels, propose an effective approach for enhancing carrier mobility in BiCuSeO-based materials, finally optimizing the thermoelectric performance as well as the mechanical property.

Aluminum-selenium (Al-Se) batteries, which possess a high theoretical specific capacity of 1357 mA h g −1 , represent a promising energy storage technology. However, they suffer from significant attenuation of capacity and low cycle life due to the shuttle effect. To mitigate the shuttle effect induced by soluble selenium chloroaluminate compound that tends to migrate towards the negative electrode, a quasi-solid-state Al-Se battery was fabricated through the synthesis of a multi-aperture structure quasi-solid-state electrolyte (MOF@GPE) based on metal–organic framework (MOF) material and gel-polymer electrolyte (GPE). The high ionic conductivity (1.13 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ) of MOF@GPE at room temperature, coupled with its wide electrochemical stability window (2.45 V), can facilitate ion transport kinetics and enhance the electrochemical performance of Al-Se batteries. The MOF@GPE-based quasi-solid-state Al-Se batteries exhibit outstanding long-life cycling stability, delivering a high specific discharge capacity of 548 mA h g −1 with a maintained discharge specific capacity of 345 mA h g −1 after 500 cycles at a current density of 200 mA g −1 . The stable ion transmission and high ion transport kinetics in MOF@GPE can be attributed to the stable structure and permeable channel of MOF , which effectively captures the soluble selenium chloroaluminate compound and further restrains the shuttle effect, resulting in improved cycling performance.

MiRNA-155 is a typical biomarker for breast cancer. Since its low concentration in the physiological environment and the limitations of conventional miRNA detection methods like Northern imprinting and RT-qPCR, convenient, real-time, and rapid detection methods are urgently needed. In this work, an electrochemical biosensor was constructed based on the flower-like MoSe 2 @1T-MoS 2 heterojunction electrode material and specific RNA recognition probes, which can realize the rapid determination of miRNA-155 content with a wide detection range from 1 fM to 1 nM and a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.34 fM. Furthermore, the contents of miRNA-155 in blood samples of tumor-bearing mice and normal mice were measured as 724.93 pM and 21.42 pM, respectively by this biosensor, demonstrating its strong identification ability and miRNA-155 can be regarded as an ideal diagnostic marker. On this basis, a portable sensor platform was designed for on-site detection simulation and showed good recovery efficiency from 95.80% to 98.69%. Meanwhile, compared with the standard detection method RT-qPCR, the accuracy and reliability of the biosensor were verified, indicating that the biosensor has the potential to provide point-of-care testing (POCT) for the early diagnosis of breast cancer.

Exploring high-efficient, earth-abundant and stable electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is of vital importance for large-scale implementation of energy converting and storing. Thus, we fabricated a free-standing hierarchical heterostructure electrode of Ni 0.85 Se@CoFe LDH/NF via a rational combination of hydrothermal, selenization and electrodeposition process, among which the ultrathin CoFe LDH nanosheets intimately assembled onto the vertical aligned Ni 0.85 Se nanosheets supported on Ni foam. The constructed core-shell nanosheet arrays hold the plentiful hetero-interfaces and intimate interactions through metal-oxygen bonds between two individuals, which guarantee the fast OER kinetic processes. Additionally, CoFe LDH with crystalline/amorphous hybrid structure favors providing more reaction sites. Remarkably, the optimal Ni 0.85 Se@CoFe LDH/NF binary composites possess outstanding OER activity with a low overpotential of ∼223 and 280 mV at 10 mA cm −2 and 100 mA cm −2 in alkaline solution as well as good durability. This research offers an alternative approach for improving electrocatalytic water splitting through constructing 3D hierarchical heterostructures.

Two-dimensional colloidal CdSe nanoplatelets (NPLs) have been considered as ideal emitting materials for high performance light-emitting devices due to their excellent optical properties. However, the understanding of defect related radiative and nonradiative recombination centers in CdSe NPLs is still far from sufficient, especially their physical distribution locations. In this work, CdSe core and CdSe/CdS core/crown NPLs have been successfully synthesized and their optical properties have been characterized by laser spectroscopies. It is found that the photoluminescence quantum yield of CdSe NPLs is improved by a factor of 4 after the growth of the CdS crown. At low temperatures, the change in the ratio of low and high energy emission intensities from NPLs suggests that the radiative recombination centers are mainly located on the lateral surface of the samples. This finding is further confirmed by the surface passivation experiment. Meanwhile, the nonradiative recombination centers of NPLs located on the lateral surface are also confirmed by ligand exchange. These results demonstrate the importance of understanding the optical properties of the lateral surface of NPLs, which are important for the design of material structures for optoelectronic applications.

In this work, a novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor based on the CdSe@ZnSe and CNTs was constructed for the detection of melamine. CdSe@ZnSe acted as the co-reaction promoter for the enhancement of Ru(bpy) 3 2+ /tri- n -propylamine (TPrA) system and CNTs acted as carriers to immobilize more CdSe@ZnSe. The initial ECL signal significantly amplified due to the synergistic effect of CNTs and CdSe@ZnSe. The ECL signal decreased with the addition of melamine, and the change value of ECL intensity (ΔI) was linearly related to the logarithm of melamine concentration. The constructed ECL sensor was able to detect melamine in the range of 1.0 × 10 −11 − 1.0 × 10 −7 M, and the detection limit was 3.3 × 10 −12 M (S/N = 3). It can be used to detect melamine in milk samples.

As a representative anodic reaction, the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is often combined with hydrogen evolution, carbon dioxide reduction, and other cathodic reactions. Bimetallic selenides can satisfy the requirement of efficiency and economy for OER. However, the OER performance of Fe-Co-Se is less than satisfactory, restricted by the limited inherent active sites. Therefore, by doping P into Fe-Co-Se, the electron density and mass transfer were successfully adjusted. The 3D dandelion-like flower Fe-Co-Se-P/CC showed η 10 of 210 mV and the 45.3 mV dec −1 Tafel slope better than Fe-Co-Se/CC and RuO 2 . Experimental investigations demonstrated that outstanding OER activity was ascribed to the double modulation influences of P dopant both in electron environment and morphology which could not only improve conductivity but also enrich catalytic reactive sites. This work presents another choice for the design of a transition metal OER catalyzer and propels the development of electrocatalytic oxygen production to higher efficiency and lower cost. Graphical Abstract 3D dandelion-like flowers Fe - Co-Se-P structure anchored on carbon cloth has been firstly synthesized as economy and efficient OER electrocatalyst, which displays outstanding catalytic perform ance (equipped with 210 mV low overpotential at η 10 ) and stability benefited from the double modulation effect of P doping on the electronic environment and morphology.
