In this article, we prepare corncob-like Cu–Ag and core–shell Cu@Ag bimetallic structures by controlling the concentration of Ag and Cu salts via a galvanic replacement reaction. Moreover, the structure evolution and electrical resistivity of the Cu–Ag corncob nanoparticle deposits were investigated upon heating up to 260 °C by experiments. Afterward, the effect of the distinctiveness and arrangement (such as core@shell, bifacial Janus, and nanowire structure) on the sintering behavior of Cu–Ag systems was investigated by molecular dynamics simulation. The results revealed that both the Ag–Cu ratio and the special structure in the initial stage as well as the sintering temperature play important roles in the morphological formation. Despite limited experimental observation of the structure evolution during sintering, the MD simulation provides a powerful tool to monitor the atom trajectory. The combined information from our experiment and molecular dynamics (MD) results will give guidelines for choosing the preferred structure of Cu–Ag systems when aiming at certain sintering properties.

A rapid and ultrasensitive method for colourimetric/photothermal dual-readout detection was developed using an 808 nm NIR laser and a thermal imaging app on mobile phone. Norfloxacin was used as a model contaminant to demonstrate this universal rapid detection method. It is innovatively, to use the advanced two-dimensional material black phosphorus as a colourimetric/photothermal reagent for the first time. The samples were added to the strip, and the analytes were selectively captured on the conjugate pad by monoclonal antibody-modified magnetic/upconversion nanocomposites . The samples flowed through the strips by capillary action until reaching the control line, where immune complex formation occurred due to the presence of secondary antibody. The added black phosphorus could be captured by the the antigens which were directly exposed to the test line and a brown band could be observed by naked eye. Upon illumination by NIR light for 1 min, the real-time temperature is obtained for quantitative analysis through the thermal imaging performed by mobile phone camera. This method can achieve the detection of norfloxacin in water samples within 20 min, and the detection limits of colorimetric and photothermal readout can reach 45 pg mL −1 . Compared with conventional strips, this method provided an increased sensitivity by about two orders of magnitude, with a integrated portable laser and a mobile phone. It is a valuable method for rapid detection and can be applied to other environmental contaminants as well.

Wearable potentiometric ion sensors are attracting attention for real-time ion monitoring in biological fluids. One of the key challenges lies in keeping the analytical performances under a stretchable state. Herein, we report a highly stretchable fiber-based ion-selective electrode (ISE) prepared by coating an ion-selective membrane (ISM) on a stretchable gold fiber electrode. The fiber ISE ensures high stretchability up to 200% strain with only 2.1% increase in resistance of the fiber electrode. Owing to a strong attachment between the ISM and gold fiber electrode substrate, the ISE discloses favorable stability and potential repeatability. The Nernst slope of the ion response fluctuates from 59.2 to 57.4 mV/dec between 0 and 200% strain. Minor fluctuation of the intercept (E0) (±4.97 mV) also results. The ISE can endure 1000 cycles at the maximum stretch. Sodium, chloride, and pH fiber sensors were fabricated and integrated into a hairband for real-time analysis of human sweat. The result displays a high accuracy compared with ex situ analysis. The integrated sensors were calibrated before and just after on-body measurements, and they offer reliable results for sweat analysis.

Improved device performance of perovskite light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is demonstrated through the synergistic effect of the optimized CsPbI3 nanocrystals (NCs) as the emissive layer (EML) and ZnO/C60 bilayer as electron transport layers (ETLs). The optical characteristics of the CsPbI3 NCs were optimized by strictly controlling the feeding ratio of Cs:Pb:I to 1:1:3 in the synthesis processes of NCs, which leads to enhanced photoluminescence quantum yields (PL QY) from 65% to 92%. Additionally, the introduction of C60 not only optimized the energy level structure of the device, leading to more balanced charge injection and transport, but also smoothed the surface of the ZnO film and perovskite NCs. Consequently, a peak external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 10.7% and maximum luminance of 1377 cd m–2 were achieved.

Novel blue LED excitable Ce 3+ -doped alkaline-earth sulfide nanocrystals are exploited for selective and sensitive Fe 3+ ions sensing in this work. The detection limit is calculated to be as low as 92.5 nM, which is better than most previous ultra-violet light excited fluorescence probes. The decreased radiative probability of the Ce 3+ : 5d by the NC surface environmental variation activates the sensing capability.

The low-Pt bimetal compounds (PtNi 3 -C and PtFe 3 -C) were synthesized via the chemical reduction method and the toluene catalytic oxidation experiments were conducted to test their catalytic performance. The sample of PtFe 3 -C (T 100 = 255 ℃) possessed a better low-temperature catalytic activity than PtNi 3 -C (T 100 = 288 ℃) due to a higher content of Pt (0), while both two catalysts had a desirable catalytic stability (⁓100 % within 72 h). The reaction kinetic parameters were acquired from the Mars-van Krevelen (MVK) model, and the MVK mechanism combined with the in-situ DRIFT was used to investigate the reaction pathway. Moreover, the theoretical calculations based on DFT was applied to study the accessibility of toluene to the surface of metal atoms doping. Herein, this study not only can provide a promising catalyst with the superior low-temperature catalytic activity and stability, but also can give a comprehensive understanding on the toluene catalytic oxidation mechanism over bimetal catalysts.

All inorganic perovskite quantum dots (QDs) have received great attention owing to their excellent performance in optoelectronic applications. However, they often suffer from defect-related photoluminescence (PL) quenching and phase transformation due to the loss of long-chain organic ligands, such as oleic acid (OA) and oleylamine (OAm). Here, we fabricated CsPbBr3 QDs by a one-step microwave method, in the presence of α-phase poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) acing as the surface capping ligands. The PVDF-CsPbBr3 QDs display a photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of up to 98% (much higher than pristine QDs with OA/OAm as capping ligands), excellent stability in the desired cubic phase structure, and enhanced photoluminescence stability under ambient conditions. Using the as-prepared QDs as a light emitter, the efficient green perovskite quantum-dot light-emitting diode (QLED) with an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 1.71% was prepared, exhibiting a peak luminance of 5711 cd m−2 at 516 nm. Theoretical calculations indicate that there exists a much stronger interaction between the CsPbBr3(001) surface and PVDF as compared to OA/OAm ligands, further explicating sufficient surface passivation with the introduced PVDF ligand.

At present, electric lighting accounts for ~15% of global power consumption and thus the adoption of efficient, low-cost lighting technologies is important. Halide perovskites have been shown to be good emitters of pure red, green and blue light, but an efficient source of broadband white electroluminescence suitable for lighting applications is desirable. Here, we report a white light-emitting diode (LED) strategy based on solution-processed heterophase halide perovskites that, unlike GaN white LEDs, feature only one broadband emissive layer and no phosphor. Our LEDs operate with a peak luminance of 12,200 cd m −2 at a bias of 6.6 V and a maximum external quantum efficiency of 6.5% at a current density of 8.3 mA cm −2 . Systematic in situ and ex situ characterizations reveal that the mechanism of efficient electroluminescence is charge injection into the α phase of CsPbI 3 , α to δ charge transfer and α–δ balanced radiative recombination. Future advances in fabrication technology and mechanistic understanding should lead to further improvements in device efficiency and luminance.

Two-dimensional all-inorganic halide perovskites (CsPbX3, X = Cl, Br or I) have emerged as prominent materials due to their unique properties, including ultrathin thickness in high surface area for catalysis, good mechanical flexibility for flexible electronics/optoelectronics, and high charge extraction and transport for photodetectors. However, the high luminescence of two-dimensional Mn-doped CsPbX3 that is crucial to light-emitting diodes and display applications remains unfulfilled. The existing synthesis approaches of two-dimensional Mn-doped CsPbX3 usually result in low luminescence because of either low solubility of precursors at low temperature or high concentrated nanocubes at high temperature (e.g. 180 °C). Herein, we report a moderate-temperature and atmospheric approach to synthesize highly luminescent Mn-doped CsPbCl3 nanoplatelets with only 4 monolayers. Different Mn–Pb feed ratios are explored to study the morphology evolution from nanocubes to nanoplatelets and the corresponding influence of two emission peaks at around 400 nm and 600 nm. The photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of our Mn-doped CsPbCl3 nanoplatelets is up to 53.76%, which is the highest reported value in Mn-doped two-dimensional all-inorganic halide perovskites. The nanoplatelets exhibit excellent stability at room temperature in air (over 60 days). For the first time, both orange-red and warm white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have been achieved through the nanoplatelets as the color conversion materials. Moreover, flexible composite fluorescent polymer films based on the nanoplatelets are demonstrated with high luminescence and stability (over 6 months), which indicate prominent potential in flexible displays.

Three types of linkers (4-mercaptobenzoic acid (MBA, R =phenyl), 3-thiophenecarboxylic acid (TPA, R =thiophene), and thioglycolic acid (TGA, R =alkyl)) were used to functionalize TiO 2 electrodes and prepare TiO 2 /CdSe QDSCs with photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of 5.50%, 4.59% and 4.85%, respectively. Various properties of modified and blank TiO 2 electrodes, such as QDs loading, absorbance, work function, interfacial charge injection, recombination and their influence on PCE were investigated. In spite of low adsorption amounts of MBA on TiO 2 , the phenyl MBA-TiO 2 electrodes obtained the highest Cd content due to regular arrangement and strong affinity to QDs. The FTIR spectra proved strong interactions between MBA and TiO 2 electrodes, leading to fast electron injection from QDs to TiO 2 electrodes. The electron injection rate in MBA-TiO 2 electrodes was the same as blank-TiO 2 , larger than TGA- and TPA-ones. Work function of TiO 2 electrodes modified by linkers could reduce several eV , in which the MBA-one decreased less, corresponding to the highest applied potential difference. The open-circuit voltage-decay measurement demonstrated that the MBA-TiO 2 photoanodes had the least charge recombination. Enhanced light absorption capacity and fast electron injection rate were two key points for modified cell to improve short-circuit current, while low recombination and appropriate energy level positions increased open-circuit voltage. Those make MBA-TiO 2 photoanodes obtain the best efficiency of 5.50%.

Hepatic cancer is a serious disease with high morbidity and mortality. Theranostic agents with effective diagnostic and therapeutic capability are highly needed for the treatment of hepatic cancer. Herein, we aimed to develop a novel mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA)-based theranostic agent for T1/T2 dual magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided cancer chemo-photothermal therapy. Superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-loaded MPDA NPs ( [email protected] ) was firstly prepared, followed by modifying with a targeted molecule of sialic acid (SA) and chelating with Fe 3+ ( [email protected] /Fe 3+ NPs). After that, doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded [email protected] /Fe 3+ NPs ( [email protected] /DOX/Fe 3+ ) was prepared for tumor theranostics. The prepared [email protected] /Fe 3+ NPs were water-dispersible and biocompatible as evidenced by MTT assay. In vitro photothermal and relaxivity property suggested that the novel theranostic agent possessed excellent photothermal conversion capability and photostability, with relaxivity of being r 1 = 4.29 mM −1 s −1 and r 2 = 105.53 mM −1 s −1 , respectively. [email protected] /Fe 3+ NPs could effectively encapsulate the DOX, showing dual pH- and thermal-triggered drug release behavior. In vitro and in vivo studies revealed that [email protected] /DOX/Fe 3+ NPs could effectively target to the hepatic tumor tissue, which was possibly due to the specific interaction between SA and the overexpressed E-selectin. This behavior also endowed [email protected] /DOX/Fe 3+ NPs with a more precise T1-T2 dual mode contrast imaging effect than the one without SA modification. In addition, [email protected] /DOX/Fe 3+ NPs displayed a superior therapeutic effect, which was due to its active targeting ability and combined effects of chemotherapy and photothermal therapy. These results demonstrated that [email protected] /DOX/Fe 3+ NPs is an effective targeted nanoplatform for tumor theranostics, having potential value in the effective treatment of hepatic cancer.

The surface state of all-inorganic cesium lead halide (CsPbX3) perovskite quantum dots (QDs) is a crucial factor for the performance of CsPbX3 QD-based optoelectronic devices. In this research, we demonstrate a rational and efficient approach for regulating the surface state of CsPbBr3 QDs by diluting surface ligands. With a systematic investigation of the optical properties of CsPbBr3 QDs from ensemble to a single particle by decreasing the surface ligands, we proposed that two competitive exciton decay pathways of single exciton deactivation, short-lived band-edge emission (∼3 ns) and long-lived surface trap-state emission (∼6–12 ns), are closely related to the emission behavior and optical properties of CsPbBr3 QDs. These findings are of significance in understanding the nature of surface ligand density, trap states, and their roles in the photoluminescence quantum yield and in improving the optical property, efficiency, and stability of CsPbX3 QD-based devices.
