We report a rapid and facile resonance light scattering (RLS) technique that utilizes CdTe quantum dots (CdTe QDs) probe to detect microRNA-122. The RLS sensor is ingeniously designed with P1 and P2 , two cDNA sequence probes with partially complementary sequences to miRNA-122. The amine-modified P1 and P2 are coupled to the surface of QDs to form functional QDs-P1 and QDs-P2 conjugates, which are collectively referred to as QDs-P. The cDNAs hybridize with the target miRNA to rapidly induce the self-assembly of QDs probe and change RLS intensity. The proposed technique can detect miRNA-122 within 40 min. RLS intensity is enhanced in proportion with miRNA-122 concentrations of 0.16–4.80 nM and has a low detection limit of 9.4 pM. In addition, the assay satisfactorily detects miRNAs in human serum samples. Thus, the assay has considerable potential for the analysis of other interesting tumor makers.

Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are suitable light absorbers for photocatalysis because of their unique properties. However, QDs generally suffer from poor photochemical stability against air, limiting their applications in photocatalysis. In this study, a stable solar-light-driven QDs-containing photocatalytic film was developed to facilitate photocatalytic degradation of the soil fumigant 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D). Highly stable CuInS2/ZnS:Al core/shell QDs (CIS/ZnS:Al QDs) were synthesized by doping Al into the ZnS shell and controlling ZnS:Al shell thickness; the CIS/ZnS:Al QDs were subsequently combined with TiO2 to form a CIS/ZnS:Al-TiO2 photocatalyst. The optimized ZnS:Al shell thickness for 1,3-D photodegradation was approximately 1.3 nm, which guaranteed and balanced the good photocatalytic activity and stability of the CIS/ZnS:Al-TiO2 photocatalyst. The photodegradation efficiency of 1,3-D can be maintained up to more than 80% after five cycles during recycling experiment. When CIS/ZnS:Al-TiO2 was deposited as photocatalytic film on a flexible polyethylene terephthalate substrate, over 99% of cis-1,3-D and 98% of trans-1,3-D were depleted as they passed through the film during 15 h of irradiation under natural solar light. This study demonstrated that the stable CIS/ZnS:Al-TiO2 photocatalyst both in powder and film form is a promising agent for photodegradation and emission reduction of soil fumigants.

CdS hollow spheres (CdS HS) coupled with graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) photocatalysts are synthesized and characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflection spectroscopy (DRS), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). The effect of CdS content on CdS HS/g-C3N4 activity is investigated by the degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB). The sample of 20 wt% CdS content shows the best photocatalytic performance under visible-light irradiation, with the corresponding RhB degradation rate reaching 97.3%. The excellent photoactivity of CdS HS/g-C3N4 is attributed to the synergistic effect of g-C3N4 and CdS HS. A possible photocatalytic mechanism of the CdS HS/g-C3N4 composite is proposed and corroborated by PL.

Thermoset shape-memory polymers (SMPs) are widely applied because of their superiority in maintaining permanent shapes. However, the inferiority of this material is also conspicuous, namely the loss of reprocessing ability owing to the chemically crosslinked structure. Fortunately, a new class of SMPs, known as “vitrimers,” was discovered, which can be reshaped or reprocessed via topological rearrangement due to the existence of dynamic covalent bonds. Thus, this new thermoset SMP could become a novel solution. In this paper, carbon nanotube–polyurethane vitrimer (CNT-PUV) composites have been prepared, which possess the capability of thermally induced shape memory based on entropy changes and thermal reconfiguration based on transcarbamoylation reactions of carbamate bonds. In addition, the introduction of CNTs endows them with properties of near-infrared (NIR) triggered shape memory and reconfiguration due to the photothermal conversion effect of CNTs. Besides, due to the character of the NIR laser, step-by-step shape recovery of CNT-PUVs is realized from predefined temporary shapes to a permanent shape. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 with a narrow band gap ( Eg ∼ 2.93 eV) was self-assembled by Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 nanosheets via a hydrothermal method, and the β-Bi 2 O 3 /Bi 2 O 2.33 @Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 composites were further fabricated using Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 as template by slow thermal decomposition for 4 h, described as: Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 → β-Bi 2 O 3 /Bi 2 O 2.33 @Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 (300 °C) → β-Bi 2 O 3 /Bi 2 O 2.33 (320 °C) → β-Bi 2 O 3 (350 °C). Deep investigation towards the generation and existence of β-Bi 2 O 3 and Bi 2 O 2.33 on the surfaces and interfaces of Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 were also carefully conducted by XRD, HRTEM and XPS analysis. In comparison with pure Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 , β-Bi 2 O 3 /Bi 2 O 2.33 @Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 displayed superior photocatalytic degradation efficiency and stability to cationic dyes under visible-light irradiation. Especially, the as-prepared BOC–300 °C with relatively high specific surface area (12.11 m 2 g −1 ) could entirely remove Rh-B and MB in 45 min and 60 min, which were approximately 4.7 and 6.6 times as high as that of pure Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 , respectively. Further study demonstrated that the enhanced photocatalytic degradation efficiency of β-Bi 2 O 3 /Bi 2 O 2.33 @Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 is surely owing to the well matched band gap and p - n heterojunction, which made it possible for much faster charge transfer rather than electron-hole pairs recombination process.

Cuproptosis, a newly discovered cell death pathway, has shown great potential in cancer treatment. Herein, near-infrared (NIR) light-driven nanomotors (CuSiO 3 @Au-Pd NMs) are designed for cuproptosis-assisted synergistic therapy with autonomous mobility and improved cellular uptake and tumor penetration. Specifically, the released Cu 2+ ions from CuSiO 3 @Au-Pd NMs can induce the Fenton-like reaction, leading to the generation of hydroxyl radicals (·OH), accompanied by the depletion of glutathione within the MCF-7 cells. Additionally, the designed CuSiO 3 @Au-Pd NMs also exhibit excellent photothermal effects, which can further promote the production of ·OH, resulting in intensified oxidative stress and cellular apoptosis. Moreover, the enhanced tumor permeation efficiency and cellular uptake of CuSiO 3 @Au-Pd NMs via autonomous movement under self-thermophoretic forces are proved using 2D cellular experiments and 3D multicellular tumor spheroids. The resultant intracellular accumulation of Cu 2+ can induce the oligomerization of lipoylated proteins, leading to cuproptosis, along with the mitochondrial dysfunction pathway. More importantly, both in vitro and in vivo experiments show that CuSiO 3 @Au-Pd NMs could penetrate deeply into tumors and exhibit great anticancer efficacy through multimodal therapeutic methods. These findings manifest promising potentials of NIR-powered Cu-based NMs with high maneuverability for future smart and synergistic cancer therapy.

The sustainability and additive manufacturing of dielectric insulators are the development direction of the power system. Introducing dynamic covalent bonds in light-based 3D printing have attracted considerable attention as the reversible crosslinks allow for the reprocessing of printed objects. However, there generally exists a trade-off between mechanical strength, glass transition temperature (T g ), and reconfigurability for dynamic covalent networks. The reconfiguring process of the dynamic covalent network often requires high mobility of molecular chains and large free volumes, which in turn decreases the mechanical strength, T g , and electrical insulating performance. Herein, we demonstrate a novel strategy for developing a kind of mechanically robust and sustainable vitrimer by building a rigid-flexible coupling inter-penetration network (IPN). Specifically, a two-stage curing approach was used to prepare high-performance 3D-printing vitrimers by using the plant oil-epoxy hybrid resin, which brings a lot of ester bonds and β -hydroxyl ester for the crosslinking network. Computational techniques with molecular dynamics calculation are used for the design and optimization of the crosslinking network, and then the optimized IPN is prepared by digital light processing 3D printing and subsequent heat curing. In the IPN, the epoxy backbone is rigid to enhance the T g and tensile strength, while the plant-based methacrylate is flexible to guarantee topological rearrangement at elevated temperatures. Compared to reported epoxy vitrimers, the resultant IPN exhibits simultaneous high T g (111 °C), outstanding tensile strength and toughness (tensile strength of 70 MPa, elongation at break of 17.58 %), good topological rearrangement, and excellent dielectric properties (permittivity less than 4, breakdown strength of 49.3 kV/mm). This work provides a new strategy for balancing the strength, toughness, electrical insulating and sustainability of 3D-printed thermosets.

Alfalfa sprouts are popular as a gourmet vegetable that contains a variety of antioxidants with anti-cancer and anti-coronary heart disease properties. In this study, under a photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) of 30 mol·L−1photoperiod of 12 h for 3 days, and a temperature of 25 ± 2 °C, we investigated the effects of different light qualities on the growth, nutritional quality and antioxidant activity of alfalfa sprouts by modulating LEDs with different red and blue ratios, and searched for suitable light-quality conditions for alfalfa sprout growth. The experimental results showed that the dark treatment favored the growth of alfalfa sprout hypocotyls and the increase of soluble sugar content; alfalfa fresh weight was the largest under the white and red light treatments; nitrate content was the lowest in the treatment with a red-to-blue ratio of 2:2 (2R2B); soluble proteins and total phenolic content were the highest in the treatment with red-to-blue ratio of 1:3 (1R3B); and the total antioxidant activity of sprouts was the highest in the blue light treatment.

Quantum dot (QD) based light-emitting diode devices (QLEDs) attracted significant academic interest due to their outstanding color saturation and convenient solution-based manufacturing processes. Currently, the external quantum efficiency (EQE) of red, green, and blue QLEDs reached their own theoretical limits. However, there was still a common phenomenon of roll-off existed in QLEDs. In this work, QLEDs with an ultra low roll-off were realized via simple carrier injection regulation strategy in achieving carrier recombination balance and exhibited excellent repeatability. By modifying quantum dots and electron transport layer (ETL), the champion device with the peak EQE of 15.2 %, and a current efficiency (CE) of 63.4 cd/A was successfully fabricated, which were 1.9 and 2.0 times greater than those of the control devices, respectively. The devices delivered a peak brightness of 266,778 cd/m 2 , and the EQE remained at 15.0 % at a brightness of 50,000 cd/m 2 , staying above 14 % within the range of 3000 to 200,000 cd/m 2 . At a voltage of 10 V, the peak EQE of the optimized devices decreased by only 7.6 % when compared with their optimum value of EQEs, while the EQE of the control device declined by 26.6 %. Finally, analysis of 40 different batches of devices revealed an average EQE of 14.3 %, demonstrating that this strategy exhibited good repeatability. This approach provided a convenient means to regulate carrier injection and further elucidated the relationship between roll-off and carrier injection balance in QLEDs, proposing a strategy to enhance their performance and simultaneously mitigate roll-off.

Achieving materials with low solar reflectance and minimal thermal losses is crucial for efficient solar energy harvesting, but simultaneously attaining these properties is challenging. To address this, we introduce a novel approach by engineering EGaIn photothermal nanoparticles, featuring an EGaIn core as the photothermal layer, encapsulated within a precisely designed conjugated organic shell. The conjugated organic layer was synthesized through a combination of aminoundecanoic acid and tannic acid, utilizing Schiff base and Michael addition reactions. This combination effectively regulates the thickness of the oxide layer on the EGaIn surface, thereby preserving photothermal efficiency and enhancing the interaction between EGaIn and the polymer matrix. Our method involves a hole-making process that firmly adheres nanoparticles to porous material surfaces, creating a photothermal cavity structure. This design integrates photothermal material with an insulating architecture, enhancing solar energy absorption and reducing heat loss. In practical applications, the prepared porous membrane achieved a temperature increase of 15 °C above ambient conditions, generating an output voltage of 100 mV and an output current of 38.8 mA in photothermal power generation. By overcoming traditional limitations of solar energy materials, this research establishes a way for the design and application of materials that successfully balance high solar absorption with minimal thermal losses. The developed membrane could play a pivotal role in the next generation of sustainable and efficient solar energy harvesting technologies, paving the way for more reliable and scalable renewable energy solutions.

Silicon carbide (SiC) ceramic lattice structures (CLSs) hold significant potential for use in structural components and optical mirrors in space exploration due to their light weight, high strength, and excellent dimensional stability. However, they face challenges such as poor curing performance and weak mechanical strength during the digital light processing (DLP) additive manufacturing process. In this study, SiC@Al 2 O 3 powder was prepared, resulting in a 21 % reduction in absorptivity compared to bare SiC powder. The ceramic paste derived from this powder achieved a curing thickness of up to 80 μm, exhibited a reduced over-curing width, and demonstrated a 75 % improvement in stability compared to bare SiC paste. Consequently, high-quality triply periodic minimal surfaces (TMPS) structured SiC@Al 2 O 3 CLSs green bodies were successfully fabricated. By integrating precursor impregnation pyrolysis with the reaction melting infiltration (PIP-RMI) post-treatment densification method, SiC@Al 2 O 3 /Si CLSs were produced, exhibiting superior mechanical properties with low dimensional shrinkage. At 30 % volume fraction, the specific compressive strength of the primitive-TPMS SiC@Al 2 O 3 /Si CLSs reached 24.79 MPa. This study presents an effective method for fabricating SiC-based CLSs and establishes a foundation for the optimization of SiC ceramic fabrication processes.

The photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide into high value-added chemical feedstock is significant for mitigation of the energy crisis and the greenhouse effect. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) possess broad application prospects in photocatalytic CO2 conversion due to the ability to adjust the metal types in metal cluster nodes. Herein, the CO2 photocatalytic performance of trimetallic Fe0.02Ni0.10–Cox–PCN-250 (x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 mol) was investigated by adjusting the content of Co. Notably, the photocatalytic yields of Fe0.02Ni0.10–Cox–PCN-250 (x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 mol) were higher than those of bimetallic Fe0.02Ni0.10–PCN-250 and Fe0.02Co0.10–PCN-250 irradiated by visible light. The optimum yield of CO was obtained by trimetallic Fe0.02Ni0.10–Co0.15–PCN-250, up to 299 μmol g−1 h−1. The enhanced yield of CO might be ascribed to the high CO2 adsorption capacity and photogenerated electron transfer after addition of a suitable amount of the third ion, Co. This study provides new insights by designing trimetallic catalysts to increase the efficiency of photocatalytic CO2 reduction.
