The integration of the KHCO 3 fed bipolar membrane (BPM) electrolyzer with KOH based CO 2 capture enables directly in situ conversion of captured CO 2 into valuable carbonaceous products, eliminating costly CO 2 recovery and compression steps. Even this integrated BPM system assembly holds promise, the critical lack of CO 2 adsorption intermediate species tracking necessitates the development of a monitoring platform. This work pioneers a novel dual-modal strategy employing simultaneous indicator-based sensing with in situ UV-Vis spectroscopy, achieving real time visualization of triphasic dynamics during integrated CO 2 capture-regeneration-conversion. Within this synergistic process involving Ar-saturated KHCO 3 decomposition, and electrochemical reduction, an etched indium (In) catalyst achieves 50% formate Faradaic efficiency (FE) at -1.1 V vs. RHE. The synergistic application of these complementary in situ diagnostics unlocks fundamental mechanistic insights into integrated CO 2 capture and conversion systems, establishing them as critical enablers for advancing efficient and scalable electrochemical CO 2 valorization.

Recent breakthroughs in three-dimensional (3D) printing of glass have enabled precise shaping of glass structures from macro to microscale while retaining their excellent physical and chemical properties. However, current functional developments in 3D printed glass primarily focus on leveraging its intrinsic optical transparency, with limited exploration of photonics application. 3D-printed glass functionalized by quantum dots (QDs) will hold great promise for creating desired photonic functional macro- and microstructures. However, voxel-precision customization of photonic functions in 3D printed glass by the monodispersed and size-controlled QDs is fundamentally conflict with the high-temperature sintering process required in 3D printed glass. Here, we present a simple, cost-effective method for creating a library of QDs functionalized 3D-printed glasses with tunable UV-VIS-IR photoluminescence (PL) by printing nanoporous glass (NG) followed by low-temperature nanoscale engineering of QDs growth. The integration of uniform and size-controlled QDs imparts 3D printed glass with fine tuning in composition, architecture, and photonic functionalities, while nanoscale engineering of the micro-environment enables precise tailoring of various QDs with enhanced optical performance and stability. This universal approach establishes a benchmark for 3D-printed functional glasses with advanced photonic capabilities.

The perovskite single crystals (PSC) produced by solution-processed metallic ions doping have a thick p–n junction (greater than 10 µm). Meanwhile, to achieve high responsivity, the carrier drift length (µτE) has to be larger than the dimensions of the detector. If the p–n junction is quite thick, a high bias voltage is required. For the practical application of photodiode, it is imperative to find a means to generate a thin p–n junction. A productive technique is suggested for forming a thin p–n junction by diffusing metallic ions, resulting in a longer drift length of the carrier than the depletion width. Thinner p–n junction leads to reduced dark current density (0.5 µA cm −2 ), low trap density (5.71 × 10 8 cm −3 ), high mobility (417 cm 2 V −1 s −1 ), and hence increased responsivity (77.69 A W −1 ) for 30 µW cm −2 UV illumination under a low applied voltage of −15 V. A quick response time with a rise/fall duration of 22 ms/30 ms under 0 V and long-term stability for over 3 months in ambient airis achieved. To comprehend the performance with the thinner p–n junction-based photodiodes, the results under UV–Vis illumination are examined and compared. The outcomes hint at a method that holds promise for producing efficient photodiodes.

In the field of environmental monitoring, traditional spectroscopic techniques, despite their high sensitivity in heavy metal (HM) detection, are plagued by complex equipment and high costs. The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) has driven the digitalization and intelligence of spectral analysis. However, the complexity of environmental samples and spectral overlap remain a major challenge. This study proposes a multi-component HM detection method that integrates ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) superimposed spectra with deep learning to address the issue of spectral overlap. By using combinatorial chemical probes to enhance the specificity of colorimetric reactions and conducting high-throughput experiments to collect spectra, a Transformer model is trained to extract qualitative and quantitative information in an end-to-end manner. During the method development phase, the model was trained using five representative HMs (Sb, Fe, Ni, Cd, Cu) to verify its recognition ability under complex conditions (average R² = 0.936, RMSE = 0.132 mg L −1 , MAE = 0.054 mg L −1 ). The method was then extended to detect ten HMs in real-world samples, demonstrating its scalability and robustness (average R² = 0.681, RMSE = 0.189 mg L −1 ). These results show that the method can simultaneously analyze multiple HMs and transition from spectral fingerprints to quantified ecological risk profiles. Additionally, the AI analysis software developed in this study automates the entire process from spectral input to multi-index detection and risk assessment, providing environmental regulatory authorities with minute-level response capabilities and facilitating proactive early warning for HM pollution control.

Tar formation during biomass gasification reduces energy efficiency and poses a negative impact on downstream applications. A photothermal steam reforming (PTR) system based on LaMn x Ni 1-x O 3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) perovskite was developed to convert tar into combustible gas. The effects of Mn substitution, temperature, and the steam to carbon ratio on PTR activity were investigated. Mn substitution increased the content of surface adsorbed oxygen and maintained the perovskite structure of LaMn 0.4 Ni 0.6 O 3 (LM4N6). Moreover, LM4N6 showed improved optical absorption and electron-hole separation properties. LM4N6 presented 90 % carbon conversion during PTR at 400 °C. Due to the introduction of ultraviolet–visible light (UV–vis), LM4N6 obtained better catalytic activity and stability in PTR than in the thermal catalytic reforming process. Detailed characterization and experiments proved that UV–vis effectively activated Ni sites and the oxygen species on LM4N6 and formed a photothermal synergistic effect, which inhibited carbon deposition and improved catalytic activity and stability. This work provides a novel concept for the conversion and utilization of biomass tar at low temperatures.

Recently, a Ti-containing hollownest-structured zeolite (Ti-HSZ) material with the shell constructed by randomly intergrown MWW (framework type code) flaky crystals has been synthesized through one-step rotating hydrothermal method within 3.5 days, which shows predominant catalytic property for the epoxidation of alkenes . Herein, it is firstly reported that the crystallization efficiency of Ti-HSZ material can be notably increased by applying seeds-assisted synthesis method. Thus-crystallized materials have been characterized by XRD , UV–vis, XPS , SEM , TEM, FT-IR, and N 2 adsorption-desorption. Moreover, the key controlling factors are revealed to include the addition percentage of seed crystals, rotating rate and filling degree of autoclave. When 2 wt% or 3 wt% seed crystals are added into the reaction gel, the crystallization time of Ti-HSZ can be sharply reduced to 2.5 days or even 2.0 days, respectively. Particularly, thus-synthesized Ti-HSZ-SM material still maintains hollownest morphology characteristic and excellent catalytic activity and catalytic stability. About 95% allyl chloride can be converted into corresponding epoxide when using H 2 O 2 as oxidant, and about 85% cyclopentene and 87% cyclooctene can be converted into corresponding epoxides when using TBHP as oxidant, with the selectivity for epoxides of nearly 100%.

With the improvement of medical and health care level in our society, the demand for antibacterial materials is increasing. In this work, we prepared the antibacterial materials by loading silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on the dialdehyde cellulose (DAC) with in-situ synthesis method. DAC was prepared by pretreating cellulose fiber with sodium metaperiodate (NaIO 4 ) to convert the hydroxyl group into aldehyde group, and then reacted with silver nitrate (AgNO 3 ) to obtain AgNPs loaded on DAC. UV–Vis results show that the characteristic absorption peak of AgNPs at 428 nm appeared in the AgNPs-loaded-DAC. It was observed by SEM that the spherical AgNPs were distributed uniformly on the DAC surface without obvious flocculation. The color of DAC was not changed significantly, indicating that a small amount of AgNPs was loaded. In addition, sodium citrate (Na 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 ) was added in the reaction of DAC and AgNO 3 and its effect on the formation of AgNPs was studied. The results demonstrated that the color of DAC turned deeper and finally dark yellow with reaction time extended. When the reaction time was 60 h, the spherical AgNPs were gradually grown and transformed into triangular prism on the DAC surface. The antibacterial properties of AgNPs showed inhibition zones of 4.90 mm and 7.35 mm (60 h) against Gram-negative ( E. coli ) and Gram-positive ( S. aureus ), respectively, which increased by 40.00% and 14.85% compared with spherical AgNPs (2.5 h) obtained without Na 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 . The research of AgNPs-loaded cellulose-based materials promotes the development prospect of new nano-antibacterial materials. Graphical abstract

The inhibitory effects of nine ionic liquids (ILs) on the catalase activity were investigated using fluorescence, absorption ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The interactions of ILs and catalase on the molecular level were studied. The experimental results indicated that ILs could inhibit the catalase activity and their inhibitory abilities depended on their chemical structures. Fluorescence experiments showed that hydrogen bonding played an important role in the interaction process. The inhibitory abilities of ILs on catalase activity could be simply described by their hydrophobicity and hydrogen bonding abilities. Unexpected less inhibitory effects of trifluoromethanesulfonate (TfO−) might be ascribed to its larger size, which makes it difficult to go through the substrate channel of catalase to the active site.

The recent trend of combining perovskite with other materials to enhance optoelectronic performance has garnered significant interest. In this paper, MAPb 0.9 Sn 0.1 I 3 and ZnO–MAPb 0.9 Sn 0.1 I 3 photodetector were prepared by frequency magnetron sputtering and sol–gel spin-coating method. Hybrid heterojunction photodetectors have more beneficial optoelectronic performance compared to MAPb 0.9 Sn 0.1 I 3 photodetector, due to the presence of built-in electric fields, which can suppress the recombination of electrons and holes. At 7 V bias conditions, the responsivities of MAPb 0.9 Sn 0.1 I 3 photodetector were 0.022 and 0.015 A/W, and the responsivities of ZnO–MAPb 0.9 Sn 0.1 I 3 photodetector were 0.39 and 0.99 A/W obtained under 350 and 850 nm illumination, respectively. The maximum external quantum efficiency reaches 144.47%, the detection rate was 5.53 × 10 11 Jones and the light to dark ratio was 2.95 × 10 3 of ZnO–MAPb 0.9 Sn 0.1 I 3 photodetector. This study provides a basis for the preparation of perovskite heterojunction photodetectors with high optoelectronic performance. High performance UV–vis–NIR photodetectors based on ZnO/organic–inorganic hybrid Sn–Pb hybrid perovskite heterojunction.

NIR light accounts for 50% of total solar energy, but only a small amount of the energy is applied to photocatalytic reactions. The incorporation of upconversion nanoparticles with semiconductor materials is an effective tactics to exploit NIR-driven photocatalyst . In this work, we report a composite material that can convert NIR light into UV–Vis photons. The light conversion material is composed of NaBiF 4 : Yb 3+ , Tm 3+ up-conversion nanocrystals . The petal-like Bi 2 WO 6 is used as a semiconductor photocatalyst to directly degrade model pollutants, such as RhB. By controlling the morphology of Bi 2 WO 6 , the contact area between the semiconductor photocatalyst and the pollutant molecules is increased. The preparation of “double bismuth” composite material NaBiF 4 :Yb 3+ , Tm 3+ /Bi 2 WO 6 provides the possibility to make full use of sunlight. Under the excitation of simulated sunlight, the photocatalyst of NaBiF 4 :Yb 3+ , Tm 3+ /Bi 2 WO 6 reaches the highest degradation efficiency of 98% in 27 min. Compared with Bi 2 WO 6 , the prepared composite photocatalyst shows better photocatalytic performance, which is attributed to the effective energy transfer between NaBiF 4 :Yb 3+ ,Tm 3+ and Bi 2 WO 6 . The capture tests were used to detect active species used in the degradation process. After four continuous photocatalytic cycles, about 95% of RhB solution is degraded. Under the simulated solar light illumination, the photocatalytic mechanism of the composite photocatalyst is discussed. The results propose a promising system to improve the photocatalytic activity through the efficient use of sunlight.

There are many methods for synthesizing magnetite nanoparticles. Most methods take a long time, and the result is undesirable. In this paper a green method was used to synthesize nanoparticles because it takes a short time and is both straightforward and eco-friendly. It is done by adding : =1:2 molar ratio solution with different amounts of extract and different amounts of NaOH solution for 20 min at different temperatures, in hotplate stirrers, to control their relative size. UV-Vis spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometer technique (VSM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to characterize the magnetite nanoparticles. The result confirms that the changes in amounts of NaOH and extract led to a change in the pH of a solution and that the increase in amounts of the extract caused the low addition of NaOH. These changes influenced the process of synthesis and characterization. The Uv-vis analysis confirms that the surface plasmon resonance had a highly visible brad peak in the 290–460 nm range, as well as a peak shift to shorter wavelengths (blue shift) with a pH change and a peak shift to longer wavelengths (red shift) with a temperature change. TEM imaging confirms that all the synthesized had a spherical shape with size changed according to a parameter change of within 40–9 nm. Magnetic analysis showed the magnetite nanoparticles synthesized have smaller sizes and are superparamagnetic with the influence of particle size on the magnetic properties, including Hc, Ms, and Mr.

Increasing consumer demand for high-quality wines required the introduction of more comprehensive monitoring indicators for quality management, necessitating winemakers to strive for rapid, real-time, and affordable monitoring tools during winemaking. This study investigated the feasibility of cost-efficient and easy-to-implement ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy combined with chemometric methods to predictively monitor the evolution of wine color and phenolics throughout commercial fermentation. Fermentations on a winery scale were carried out with a daily analysis of the UV-Vis spectra, color, and phenolics. Furthermore, characteristic wavelengths were established by a self-compiled Python program to reduce redundancy in spectra. The optimized partial least squares (PLS) model predicted well with a residual prediction deviation (RPD) greater than 2.54, and the robustness was further verified by a robust external Bland-Altman method. UV-Vis spectroscopy can achieve objective monitoring of the practical fermentation profile, which can better help winemakers make decisions to improve wine quality and consistency.
