Near-infrared light occupies 54.3% of the solar spectrum and has greater penetration depth, and its effective utilization is of great significance in the practical application of photocatalysis on a larger scale. However, the development of catalysts that can directly utilize near-infrared light is still a huge challenge. This paper proposes a strategy to directly utilize near-infrared light (excitation wavelength extending to 850 nm) by creating carbon material doped with a high-spin-state Co(II)-Nx single-atom site. In the near-infrared-light-irradiated photooxidation of 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene, the yield of juglone can reach 45% without a significant decrease, even when the catalytic volume is increased by 20 times, which was much higher than that irradiated by 460 nm wavelength (reduced by about 23%). Our study sets the stage for fabricating stable NIR photocatalysts and provides a solution to directly enhance NIR photooxidation in a large-scale manner.

In this study, we provided a facile method to prepare adsorbents with high content of amino groups for bilirubin removal. Poly (glycidyl methacrylate- co -N-vinylpyrrolidone) particle adsorbents were prepared through free radical solution copolymerization followed by a phase inversion technique. Amino groups were further introduced onto the particles by grafting 1,6-hexanediamine molecules. The porosity and specific surface area of the functional particles were 92.9% and 11.8 m 2 /g, respectively. Flourier transform infrared spectroscopy and elemental analysis confirmed the successful functionalization of polymeric particles. The cross-linker content and N-vinylpyrrolidone ratios had significant influence on the pore structure of the polymeric particles, as observed by scanning electron microscopy. Batch adsorption experiments were performed to verify bilirubin adsorption behavior of the particles, and a particle column was fabricated to further study the bilirubin removal. The particles exhibited good adsorption capacity of bilirubin without procoagulant activity , and had great potential to be used in hemoperfusion. The study opens a new route to fabricate functional polymer adsorbents.

In this study, hollow Co@SiO 2 @PPy composites with excellent electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption performance were successfully synthesized. The monodisperse hollow Co microspheres were prepared using a solvent-thermal method. The microspheres were then coated with an SiO 2 layer by a modified Stöber method. Finally, the SiO 2 layer was surface-coated by polypyrrole (PPy) through in-situ polymerization to obtain Co@SiO 2 @PPy composite materials with hollow core–shell structures. The prepared CSP2 composite achieved a minimum reflection loss (RL min ) of −65.83 dB at 1.86 mm, demonstrating an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 4.84 GHz. The CSP3 composite achieved a widest EAB (EAB max ) of 5.4 GHz at a thickness of 1.83 mm, while simultaneously maintaining the RL level at −50.70 dB. Additionally, it demonstrated an RL min value of −61.66 dB with a thickness as thin as 1.66 mm. The observed shift of FTIR absorption peaks by 20 cm −1 in the PPy ring provides compelling evidence for the involvement of multilayered structures in polarization loss. The SiO 2 layer not only enhances the interface polarization but also prevents corrosion of the Co core by acidic solutions. The exceptional EMW absorption characteristics can be attributed to the effective impedance matching and the combined effect of magnetic and dielectric losses.

Magnetothermal therapy (MT) is a noninvasive cancer treatment that has shown great promise in recent years. However, the low magnetothermal efficiency of the existing magnetic nanoparticles used in MT has been an obstacle to their widespread applications. In this work, we report a new class of Fe-Co-Ni-Cu high-entropy magnetic nanoparticles (HEMNPs) with exceptional magnetothermal properties synthesized by a thermal decomposition method. The fabricated HEMNPs, having an average diameter of 60–70 nm, exhibited a saturation magnetization of 42.4 emu/g and coercivity of 129.5 Oe. The hyperthermia measurement reveals that the HEMNPs have a maximum specific loss power of 202 W/g at the concentration of 2 mg/ml under an alternating magnetic field with an intensity of 46 Oe and a frequency of 266 kHz, demonstrating the great potential for MT applications. Our results demonstrate that the high-entropy concept can be extended to develop high-performance magnetic nanoparticles for MT applications.

All inorganic double perovskites have been adopted as photo-luminescent hosts due to their high stability, absorption coefficient and carrier mobility. Various photo-luminescent properties are being investigated in double perovskites including infrared emitting, upconverting, afterglowing, temperature sensing and so on. Taking advantage of the Boltzmann distributed energy levels, erbium ions are gifted as spectral temperature sensing centers. Here, we synthesized Er 3+ doped monoclinic Ba 2 SrWO 6 (BSWO) double perovskites and carried out a series of examinations for their upconverting as well as temperature sensing characteristics. Upon 980 and 1550 nm excitation, the upconversion processes are determined by the relationship between emission intensities against excitation powers. The optical temperature sensitivities are evaluated by exploiting fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) and lifetime, where the maximum values for FIR and lifetime sensitivities are 14.3 × 10 −3 and 2.2 × 10 −3 K −1 respectively, suggesting that Er 3+ doped double perovskites hold great potential for the development of novel optical temperature sensing materials.

In this paper, iron–copper bimetallic nanosheet materials (FeCu/CNS) were prepared using hydrothermal and pyrolysis methods to develop a dual-mode electrochemical and colorimetric sensing platform for detecting acetaminophen (ACM). The glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with FeCu/CNS to enhance its electrocatalytic activity and develop an electrochemical sensor for detecting ACM. The linear range of the sensor was 0.01–7 × 10–6 mol/L, and the detection limit (LOD) was 2.5 × 10–8 mol/L. In addition, FeCu/CNS possesses an efficient peroxidase-like activity that converts colorless 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into a blue oxidized state product (oxTMB) in the presence of H2O2, which exhibits a characteristic absorption peak around 652 nm. However, ACM has reducing properties and can reduce oxTMB to TMB, thereby reducing the intensity of the characteristic absorption peak of oxTMB. Based on this principle, a colorimetric sensor was constructed for the detection of ACM, which had a linear range of 0.5–1625 × 10–6 mol/L and an LOD of 2.63 × 10–6 mol/L. Compared with other single methods, the method exhibited a wider linear range and lower detection limit, confirming the complementary and superior nature of the dual-mode sensor designed in this paper for ACM detection. Meanwhile, the detection of ACM in human serum was also carried out with satisfactory results.

The novel photovoltaic effect mechanism has been consistently corroborated over the last decade, however, the low photocurrent density remains a significant impediment to its practical applications. In this study, an extra-large photocurrent density is achieved in the acceptor (A 2+ , A = Ca, Sr, Ba)-donor (W 6+ ) co-doped BiVO 4 (BVO) films prepared with a sol-gel method. A photocurrent density of 4.05 mA/cm 2 under 450 nm light illumination and a large detection rate of 8.4 × 10 11 Jones and 5.4 × 10 11 Jones for 365 nm and 450 nm are respectively obtained. The high photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of 2.4 % is obtained in the Au/BVO/Pt sandwich structure under 365 nm (10 mW/cm 2 ) light illumination using Sr 2+ -W 6+ co-doped film, even if the light is obstructed by Au top electrode. A possible mechanism based on uneven composition formed by acceptor-donor ions is proposed to explain the enhancement of the photovoltaic effect in A 2+ -W 6+ co-doped BVO films. The composite ion doping engineering presents a novel strategy for improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency in single-layer films.

Carbon dots (CDs) have emerged as significant fluorescent nanomaterials due to their bright, stable fluorescence, good biocompatibility, facile synthesis, etc. They are widely used in various scientific and practical applications, particularly in combination with mesoporous, florescent, or magnetic nanomaterials to enhance their properties. Recent research has focused on employing CDs and their composites in drug analysis, drug loading, biological imaging, disease diagnosis, and temperature sensing, with a growing interest in their biological and medical applications. In this study, we synthesized blue-fluorescent S, N-co-doped CDs (cys-CDs) using hydrothermal synthesis with L-cysteine and sodium citrate. These resulting cys-CD particles were approximately 3.8 nm in size and exhibited stable fluorescence with a quantum yield of 0.66. By leveraging the fluorescence quenching of the cys-CDs, we developed a rapid and sensitive method for baicalein detection, achieving high sensitivity in the low micromolar range with a detection limit for baicalein of 33 nM. Our investigation revealed that the fluorescence-quenching mechanism involved static quenching and inner-filter effect components. Overall, cys-CDs proved to be effective for accurate quantitative baicalein detection in real-world samples.

Aqueous supercapacitors have occupied a significant position among various types of stationary energy storage equipment, while their widespread application is hindered by the relatively low energy density. Herein, N/F co-doped carbon materials activated by manganese clusters (NCM) are constructed by the straightforward experimental routine. Benefiting from the elevated conductivity structure at the microscopic level, the optimized NCM-0.5 electrodes exhibited a remarkable specific capacitance of 653 F g−1at 0.4 A g−1and exceptional cycling stability (97.39% capacity retention even after 40,000 cycles at the scanning rate of 100 mV s−1) in a neutral 5 M LiCl electrolyte. Moreover, we assembled an asymmetric device pairing with a VOxanode (NCM-0.5//VOx), which delivered a durable life span of 95% capacity retention over 30,000 cycles and an impressive energy density of 77.9 Wh kg−1. This study provides inspiration for transition metal element doping engineering in high-energy storage equipment.

Multicompartmented nanostructures, which mirror the complexity of living cells, are promising for bio-related applications. However, controlling the spatial arrangement within natural biopolymer assemblies, like protein nanoparticles, is challenging. In our study, we reveal a facile method for compartmentalizing the interiors of protein nanoparticles by co-assembling rice proteins (RPs) and soy protein isolates (SPIs) through simultaneous folding. The assembly of these two protein types results in nanoparticles with a hydrophobic core to accommodate hydrophobic substances, such as eugenol, leading to its internalization. The protein–ligand (SPI-eugenol) interaction then triggers SPI gelation within the nanoparticle cores, forming distinct physical barriers hindering the complete merging of eugenol droplets. Subsequent dialysis of the nanoparticles containing eugenol against water facilitated the removal of eugenol. This step was crucial for forming multicompartmented nanoparticles (MCNPs) with adjustable interior complexities, including varying numbers of compartments and different hollowing rates related to various SPI:RP mass ratios. This allows us to endow MCNPs with adjustable barrier effects tailoring controllable responses of the encapsulated payload, vitamin D 3 (VD 3 ), under different physicochemical conditions. Our study demonstrates a straightforward method for constructing biomacromolecular architectures with precise control over their compartmentalization.

The design of a low-cost, efficient and durable co-catalyst for hydrogen evolution is of great significance for improving photocatalytic activity. In this work, a NiMoP 2 /Cu-ZnS composite photocatalyst was prepared by in-situ growth of NiMoP 2 on the surface of copper-doped zinc sulfide (Cu-ZnS). The test results showed that the hydrogen production rate of the optimized NiMoP 2 /Cu-ZnS under visible light irradiation was significantly improved. Among them, NiMoP 2 /Cu-ZnS-1 exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity (5.13 mmol·g −1 ·h −1 ), which was 2.47 times that of Cu-ZnS and maintained good stability during the reaction. The improvement of hydrogen production performance of the photocatalyst was mainly attributed to the synergistic effect of Cu-ZnS and co-catalyst NiMoP 2 . The ohmic contact formed between Cu-ZnS and NiMoP 2 could improve the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers and reduce the overpotential of H 2 evolution. Besides, NiMoP 2 was found to provide the active site for the reduction reaction, and accelerate the transfer efficiency of photogenerated electrons. This strategy opens up a new way for the construction of co-catalyst modified semiconductor materials to improve the photocatalytic hydrogen production rate.

The integration of multiple therapeutic agents within a single nano-drug carrier holds promise for advancing anti-tumor therapies, despite challenges posed by their diverse physicochemical properties. This study introduces a novel multi-stage microfluidic co-encapsulation platform designed to address these challenges. By carefully orchestrating the nano-precipitation process sequence, this platform achieves sequential encapsulation of two drugs with markedly different physicochemical characteristics. Using the multi-stage microfluidic TrH chip, hybrid nanoparticles (HNPs) loaded with paclitaxel (PTX)-simvastatin (SV), PTX-lenvatinib (LV), and SV-LV were synthesized. Unlike conventional Bulk methods and existing commercial microfluidic Tesla and Baffle chips, the HNPs produced here exhibit a core–shell structure and uniform particle size distribution, crucial for enhancing drug delivery efficacy. Notably, this method achieves nearly 100 % encapsulation efficiency for both drugs across a dual-drug feed ratio range from 1:4 to 4:1. Drug loading efficiencies were quantified for PTX-SV/HNPs (14.97 ± 1.19 %), PTX-LV/HNPs (16.58 ± 0.69 %), and SV-LV/HNPs (19.21 ± 2.38 %). PTX-SV/HNPs demonstrated sequential release characteristics of SV and PTX, as confirmed by in vitro drug release experiments. Significantly, PTX-SV/HNPs exhibited superior cytotoxicity against HepG2 cells compared to individual PTX and SV treatments, underscoring their potential in cancer therapy. In conclusion, the developed multi-stage microfluidic platform represents a robust strategy for co-encapsulating drugs with substantial physicochemical disparities, thereby offering a promising avenue for advancing multi-drug delivery in nanomedicine applications.
