Conventional perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) suffer long-term stability, further limiting practical application of luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs). In this work, novel dendritic CsPbBr 3 @SiO 2 particles with bright solid-state green light emission and 46 % of photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) have first been synthesized via one-step solid-phase calcination method. The dendritic CsPbBr 3 @SiO 2 particles have then been used as fluorescent material for construction of LSCs along with using organosilicon polymers with better compatibility as waveguide materials. Single-layer thin film LSCs and overall curing LSCs are easily prepared by the casting and curing method, exhibiting high external optical efficiency ( η opt ) of 7.88 % and 10.92 %, respectively. The maximum internal quantum efficiency ( η int ) of thin film LSCs and overall curing LSCs reach 45.09 % and 44.07 %, respectively, while their maximum external quantum efficiency ( η ext ) of 29.42 % and 34.07 % are obtained, respectively. Importantly, both types of LSCs show excellent stability, maintaining above 92 % of the initial η opt under high-relative-humidity (RH = 90 %), high-temperature (60 °C) and sunlight exposure conditions for two weeks or room temperature environment for twenty weeks. Moreover, both types of LSCs at optimal conditions have good transparency (>40 % over 515 nm of light wavelength). Otherwise, both types of LSCs have higher η opt than that of the previous related work.

The self-cleaning coating has both superhydrophobic physical and photocatalytic chemical self-cleaning properties, which has attracted the wide attention of researchers in recent years. First, the flower-like hollow SiO2@TiO2 spheres with oxygen vacancies (rFHSTs) were prepared by the liquid-phase reduction method, in which several different functional components were integrated. Meanwhile, the influence mechanisms of the physical structure and chemical composition on the photocatalytic properties are discussed in detail. The results proved that rFHSTs exhibited the enhanced photoresponse range and photocatalytic degradation performance in visible light because of the synergistic effect of the microstructure (internal cavity, 3D flower-like nanosheet), SiO2/TiO2 heterojunction structure, and oxygen vacancies. After that, superhydrophobic modified rFHSTs were used as fillers to fabricate PVA/PFDTS-rFHSTs composite coatings with both physical and chemical self-cleaning properties. The self-cleaning performances and principles of the composite coating were examined and explored. The results showed that the low surface energy of the hydrophobic chain segment, the inherent particle effect, and the photocatalytic activity of rFHSTs were responsible for the superhydrophobic and photocatalytic effects, finally endowing the composite coating with self-cleaning performance. In short, this study is profound for the development and application of self-cleaning coatings with both physical and chemical performances.

Cancer starvation/photothermal combined tumor therapy (CST/PTT) has attracted great interest attributed to their mutual compensation and synergistically enhanced effect. However, the very low O2 supply in the tumor microenvironment (TME) greatly limits the CST efficiency of glucose oxidase (GOx). Additionally, the easy degradation in blood circulation and significant off-target effects are big challenges for clinical applications of the GOx-based CST. In this study, a drug delivery system (DDS) with specific tumor-targeted GOx delivery, near-infrared (NIR) light and TME responsive O2 generation, NIR-responsive glucose consumption, high GOx loading, and efficient NIR photothermia was developed. Positively charged AuNRs@MnO2@SiO2 nanoparticles (named AMS+ NPs) were synthesized. GOx was covalently loaded with a high loading ratio of 36.0%. Finally, a thermosensitive biomimetic hybrid membrane composed of a thermosensitive lipid (TSL) membrane, red blood cell membrane (RBCM), and 4T1 cancer cell membrane (CCM) was coated on the NPs through a double-layer strategy. The AMS+-G@TSL@[RBC-CC-TSL]M NPs consumed 32.7 times glucose at 50 °C as that at 37 °C and generated 4.9 times O2 upon NIR laser irradiation. The thermosensitive biomimetic NPs showed an efficient targeting capability to the homotypic 4T1 cancer cells/tumors accompanied by good biocompatibility, macrophage evading capability, high cancer cell cytotoxicity, and excellent antitumor efficacy. The tumor growth inhibition ratio with NIR laser irradiation reached 92.8%. The AMS+-GOx@TSL@[RBC-CC-TSL]M NPs provide a smart, efficient, safe, PTT/CST combined DDS for highly efficient tumor therapy.

Polymer nanocomposites with high energy-storage capability have been widely used in electronic devices. To achieve further enhanced energy density, developing nanofillers with tailored compositions and nanostructures is demonstrated to be an effective strategy. Especially, hybrid nanoparticles (NPs) with abundant internal interfaces are acknowledged as a promising candidate. Here, a class of carbon/silica hybrid nanoparticles (C/SiO 2 h-NPs) with disorderly mixed nanostructures are synthesized and employed to prepare C/SiO 2 h-NPs/polyimide nanocomposites. To reveal the influence of internal interfaces on dielectric properties, a series of comparative composites co-filled with C and SiO 2 NPs are also prepared. The breakdown strength of the C/SiO 2 h-NPs/polyimide composites can reach 303.96 kV/mm, which is over 200% that of their counterparts. It is believed that the abundant heterogeneous interfaces inside the C/SiO 2 h-NPs can effectively impede the development of conductive paths, thereby obviously enhancing breakdown strengths. Furthermore, the C/SiO 2 h-NPs/polyimide composite with 5 wt% C/SiO 2 h-NPs demonstrates a high discharged energy density of ~0.612 J/cm 3 at 150 kV/mm, which is about 2.29 times higher than pure polyimide (PI) (~0.267 @ 150 kV/mm), along with a high discharge energy efficiency of 85.9%. This work offers a practicable strategy for the design of functional NPs toward high-performance dielectric composites.

AgNbO 3 -based ceramics have been the spotlight for the lead-free dielectric capacitors due to its unique antiferroelectric feature and the ever-increasing environmental concerns. Herein, synergic modulation on the energy storage properties of AgNbO 3 -based ceramics was reported, in which the over-stoichiometrical introduction of only 0.10 wt% MnO 2 at the atomic-scale leads to reduced leakage current, P r and enhanced antiferroelectric stability while the SiO 2 coating on the AgNbO 3 particles at the micro-scale greatly inhibits the grain growth, increases the breakdown strength and the electric filed inducing the AFE-FE transitions. As a result, a large recoverable energy density up to 3.34 J/cm 3 with efficiency of 60.0% was obtained in 0.10 wt% MnO 2 -doped AgNbO 3 @SiO 2 ceramic, which is 2.3 times larger than that of the pristine AgNbO 3 . This work provides a rational approach to synergically modulate the energy storage properties.

In this work, Ta was firstly reported as an efficient promoter of MgO–SiO 2 for the conversion of ethanol and acetaldehyde to 1,3-butadiene. The doping of Ta into MgO–SiO 2 forms Ta–O–Si bonds and generates more strong Lewis acid sites, which not only promote the aldol condensation reaction but also significantly facilitate the Meerwein–Ponndorf–Verley reduction, the total conversion around 80% which drops to 65% after 24 h. In addition, the catalyst showed desirable stability in 24 h long-term stability evaluation, the selectivity remained stable at 80%. Graphic Abstract

CaO-B 2 O 3 -SiO 2 (CBS) glass ceramic with various glass network modifiers were synthesized to develop a kind of material sintered at low temperature for multi-layer ceramic substrates. The influence of double alkali metal oxides (Na 2 O and K 2 O) on sintering characteristics, microstructures and dielectric properties of CBS glass ceramic were investigated. XRD analysis showed that the major crystalline phase was β-CaSiO 3 and CaB 2 O 4 , and the strength of the peak increased with the addition of network modifiers. DSC curve revealed that the process of crystallization and softening were obviously affected. SEM photographs exhibited that the microstructures were composed of amorphous phases, pores and crystalline phases. FTIR showed that the additives changed the continuity of CBS glass structure. An appropriate amount of Na 2 O and K 2 O additives could significantly improve the sintering characteristics and dielectric properties. CBS samples with 1.5 wt% (Na 2 O + K 2 O) sintered at 850 °C for 15 min presented the best performances with the bulk density of 2.53 g/cm 3 , ε r = 5.94 and tan δ = 1.22 × 10 −3 at 10 GHz.

A core-shell structured Zn/SiO 2 @ZSM-5 catalyst was prepared by a hydrothermal coating method, and its physicochemical properties and catalytic performance in methane co-aromatization with propane were studied using a conventional solid catalyst (Zn/ZSM-5) as the comparison. Results revealed that methane was activated on Zn sites to form a large number of Zn methyl species and then incorporated during the aromatic formation process to promote the formation of aromatics. At a space velocity of 3600 mL g −1 h −1 and the reaction temperature of 550 ℃, the methane, propane conversion and the aromatics selectivity of Zn/SiO 2 @ZSM-5 catalyst were 7.9 %, 95.9 % and 88.1 %, respectively, which were higher than those of Zn/ZSM-5 catalyst by 2.8 %, 6.7 % and 6.8 %, respectively. The unique reaction pathway of core (Zn/SiO 2 , Zn sites)-shell (ZSM-5, acid sites) was mainly responsible for the superior performance in methane co-aromatization with propane. Meanwhile, the core-shell structured Zn/SiO 2 @ZSM-5 catalyst aroused the formation of distinct micro-macroporous system, which facilitated quick diffusion of desired products out of the intraframework channels and inhibited the formation of carbon deposits. These features of Zn/SiO 2 @ZSM-5 catalyst granted it superb diffusion ability and unique core-shell structure, which greatly enhanced the methane, propane conversion and aromatic selectivity together with a preeminent catalytic stability.

Nowadays, 3D polymer-derived silicon oxycarbide ceramics (SiOC) can be fabricated by the stereolithography method successfully. However, due to their intrinsically poor ceramic content and the large thermal shrinkage during the pyrolysis, it is difficult for the bulk 3D polysiloxane precursors to be pyrolyzed into dense 3D-ceramics. Herein, the ceramic content of the photocurable polysiloxane precursors was increased by adding a large amount of SiO 2 powders into the low solid content epoxy-acrylic siloxane. After being added with proper dispersant, the viscosity of the high solid loading polysiloxane/SiO 2 slurry can reach a proper level. Bulk 3D-silica ceramics with the wall-thickness around 8 mm can be conveniently fabricated from the polysiloxane/SiO 2 slurry by stereolithography and a two-step sintering process. The addition of a proper sintering aid NaF can promote the 3D-PSO/SiO 2 precursor to be converted into dense and crack-free 3D-silica ceramics with good mechanical proprieties.

Fluorescent nanobeads are widely used due to their advantages of visualization, sensitivity and the quantitative measurement of target analytes. In terms of their applications, the stability and biocompatibility of fluorescent nanobeads are very important. In this work, “pomegranate”-like QD/SiO2/poly(St-co-MAA) (QSIP-COOH) nanobeads were synthesized by two-step strategies. First, quantum dots (QDs) were covered by a silica layer using the reverse hydrolysis method to form a core–shell structure like the seed and flesh of a pomegranate, and then a poly(St-co-MAA) layer was formed as the skin of the pomegranate. The structure and morphology of nanobeads were investigated by FTIR, TG, TEM and HRTEM. The results confirmed that QSIP-COOH nanobeads had a pomegranate structure with a QD core, an intermediate silica shell, and a carboxylated polystyrene outermost shell. TEM and HRTEM results showed that the size of the typical product was about 170 nm with the QDs of about 8 nm and the MPS-modified QD/SiO2 (QSI-CC) of about 27 nm, respectively. The in vitro cytotoxicity test showed that nanobeads had desirable stability and good biocompatibility, which made them applicable for various bioassays and diagnostics. Here, QSIP-COOH fluorescent nanobeads were applied to immunochromatography test strip (ICTS) and the result proved that QSIP-COOH fluorescent nanobeads could be used for the sensitive detection of immune human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG).

Ag2O/SiO2–TiO2-n aerogel composites with different molar ratios of Si/Ti, prepared by a sol–gel method followed by the ambient pressure drying technique, were used for the adsorptive removal of thiophenic compounds from model fuels, along with Ag2O/SiO2-50. The physicochemical properties of aerogel composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, NH3 temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), and pyridine (Py) FT-IR spectroscopy. The results indicated that doping Ti into Ag2O/SiO2-50 led to a slight decrease in the specific surface area, an obvious increase in the actual content of Ag, and the appearance of weak Lewis acid centers on the surface. The data for equilibrium adsorption of thiophene over Ag2O/SiO2-50 and Ag2O/SiO2–TiO2-50 were well fitted to the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm equations. The kinetic experimental data of Ag2O/SiO2–TiO2-50 was well fitted by a pseudo-second-order model. For two adsorbents, negative values of ΔG indicated that the adsorption processes were spontaneous. The adsorption process on Ag2O/SiO2–TiO2-50 was more favorable at higher temperatures, which was contrary to that on Ag2O/SiO2-50. The incorporation of Ti into Ag2O/SiO2-50 can improve the adsorptive desulfurization performance owing to the increase in the actual content of Ag species (π-complexation centers), and thiophenic compounds can be adsorbed via Lewis acid–base interaction and S–Ti binding besides π-complexation. Among Ag2O/SiO2–TiO2-n, Ag2O/SiO2–TiO2-50 performed the best.

In this work, a solid-state electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor based on resonance energy transfer (RET) was proposed using MoS2QDs@g-C3N4 as a donor and NH2-SiO2@PTCA as an acceptor. Herein, MoS2QDs could significantly facilitate the stability and efficiency of the ECL of g-C3N4. PTCA provided a large platform to anchor NH2-SiO2 nanoparticles. The prepared MoS2QDs@g-C3N4 exhibited good spectral overlap with the UV–vis absorption spectrum of NH2-SiO2@PTCA. Based on this, we designed an “off–on” ECL sensing strategy for sensitive and selective detection of glutathione (GSH). Under the best conditions, the linear range of the sensor for GSH detection was from 0.001 to 100 μM with a detection limit of 0.63 nM (S/N = 3). More importantly, GSH in commercial samples can be detected using the proposed sensor, which indicated its superior detection capabilities and potential application value in commercial medicines.
