A new method for synthesizing freestanding PbS-CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 (MAPI) core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) with enhanced light absorption and photoelectric properties was reported. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) analysis confirmed the core-shell structure of the obtained sample. The Vis-NIR spectra proved the core-shell sample absorbed light both in visible and near infrared region . For comparison, oleic acid/oleylamine molecule capping PbS NPs, MAPI molecule capping PbS NPs, and PbS-MAPI core-shell NPs were used to fabricate Schottky solar cells. PbS-MAPI core-shell NPs based solar cells delivered a photocurrent response from both the PbS and MAPI, and achieved the highest overall PCE.

Wearable devices have become very important for collecting health information and monitoring the condition of seriously ill patients. However, most recently developed wearable devices can only monitor limited signals within a very small range of values. A novel sensor is fabricated by modifying the surface of polyimide nanowires with silver nanoparticles. These nanowire sensors can sense both pressure and temperature changes and have antimicrobial properties. The fabricated sensor can detect a wide range of pressure variation from 5 KPa to 100 KPa. A theoretical model is developed to explain the sensing mechanism of the silver-nanoparticle-modified polyimide nanowires. The experimental and theoretical results for the nanowires are in good agreement. By attaching these sensors to human joints and fingers, real-time information can be detected for human motion, such as walking or holding a hot cup of water. The excellent performance of this device shows that it has great potential for use in artificial skins for detecting temperature and human motion.

Constructing robust anode with strong aluminophilicity and rapid desolvation kinetics is essential for achieving high utilization, long-term durability, and superior rate performance in Al metal-based energy storage, yet remains largely unexplored. Herein, molybdenum nanoparticles embedded onto nitrogen-doped graphene (Mo@NG) are designed and prepared as Al host to regulate the deposition behavior and achieve homogeneous Al plating/stripping. The monodispersed Mo nanoparticles reduce the desolvation energy barrier and promote the deposition kinetics of Al. Additionally, Mo nanoparticles act as aluminophilic nucleation sites to minimize the Al nucleation overpotential, further guiding uniform and dense Al deposition. As a result, the dual-functional Mo@NG endows Al anodes with low voltage hysteresis, reversible Al plating/stripping with high coulombic efficiency, and excellent high-rate capability under 5 mA cm −2 . Moreover, the as-designed Al metal full batteries deliver a high capacity retention of 92.8% after 3000 cycles at 1 A g −1 . This work provides an effective solution to optimize the electrochemical properties of Al metal anode from the perspective of desolvation and deposition reactions, towards the development of high-safety and long-cycling aluminum-ion batteries.

Novel nanoplatform with excellent photothermal conversion and temperature feedback are preferable in clinical photothermal therapy (PTT). In this work, a hybrid of NaYF 4 :Er 3+ ,Yb 3+ @NaYF 4 upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) conjugated with gold nanorods (GNRs) was fabricated in order to achieve effective photothermal conversion and excellent temperature detection. In this nanoplatform, the GNRs as photo-activated nano-heaters could effectively convert the 808 nm photoenergy into heat, meanwhile UCNPs as 980 nm triggered temperature probe could read the temperature in an exact microdomain where the nanocomposite was located at. The effects of excitation source, GNRs concentration and power density on photothermal conversion were investigated. In addition, the difference between eigen temperature of nanoparticles and solution temperature, and the potential for temperature feedback were analyzed under double lasers excitation. Moreover, the photothermal conversion efficiency was experimentally confirmed from thermodynamic analysis. It was found that the nanocomposite can be an excellent nanoplatform for potential application in advanced PTT.

The fabrication of flexible electronics has gained extensive attention due to the growing demand of flexible devices. Among various methods, laser direct writing technology has emerged as a promising approach due to its advantages of high processing accuracy and simplicity. This research focuses on the preparation of copper microelectrodes using laser-induced reduction of CuO nanoparticles (Cu NPs) on polyethylene terephthalate films. First, the influence of various parameters on the conductivity of the copper microelectrodes is investigated. Second, flexible copper microelectrodes with a minimum resistivity of 62.29 μΩ cm and an adhesion grade of 4B level are successfully fabricated. Building upon these results, a capacitive pressure sensor is developed with optimal sensitivity of 3.99 Pa −1 , good hysteresis of 3.99%, and response and recovery times of 1.2 and 1.3 s, respectively. Repeatability tests confirm the sensor's stability and fatigue resistance. This research provides valuable insights for the production of flexible sensors.

Magnetic-dielectric composites attract numerous attentions for good microwave absorption performances based on magnetic-dielectric loss mechanism and tunable electromagnetic parameters. Fe/carbon fibers are prepared through carbonization of Fe doped polyaniline nanotubes , in which Fe nanoparticles are embedded in carbon fibers. The introduction of Fe nanoparticles results in good electromagnetic impedance and proper quarter-wavelength cancellation induced, which ensure that microwave penetrate composites to the great extend and is consumed as much as possible, leading to enhanced microwave absorption performance. The minimal reflection loss of Fe/carbon fibers composites starts being less than −10 dB from 1.7 mm and is up to −44.09 dB at 6.62 GHz and 4.1 mm and the effective bandwidth reaches 6.0 GHz with 2.4 mm.

Gaseous Hg 0 is one of the most deadly and hard-to-dispose pollutants. The oxidation of Hg 0 is a promising route, but the rational design and synthesis of highly efficient catalysts still remain grand challenges. Herein, CuO@Cu 2 O (or Cu x O) heterostructured nanoparticles uniformly monodispersing on porous carbon monolith were designed and successfully synthesized using oligo( m -phenylenediamine)-Cu 2+ complex as raw material. The Cu x O-carbon catalyst contains ∼28 wt% of Cu. Based on density functional theory calculation, the CuO@Cu 2 O junction interfaces can accelerate the Hg 0 oxidation by significantly reducing the energy barriers of reaction. Only 1 mg of the catalyst can catalyze the oxidation of more than 90 % of Hg 0 with [HCl] = 0.5 ppm, [O 2 ] = 6 vol%, T = 150 °C. The poisoning effect of either SO 2 or H 2 O on the catalysts is weak. Moreover, a long-term test confirmed that the Hg 0 oxidation rate can maintain more than 90 % even in the co-presence of SO 2 (5000 ppm) and H 2 O (10 vol%).

Ultra-small Au nanoparticles (<2 nm) supported on hollow silica nanospheres were successfully fabricated with the aid of chemical modification (–SH groups) or through simple immersion method, leading to supported catalysts Au/SH-HNS and Au/HNS. The resulting solid catalysts showed good thermal stability and the small particle sizes could be remained even at high temperature of 350 °C. Such catalysts were catalytically active in the oxidation of styrene using O2 as oxidant under 1 atm pressure. The catalytic results showed that the activity strongly depends on the Au loading amount, and the loading of 4–5 wt% led to the highest activity. Significant rate enhancement was observed with gold nanoparticles supported on pure silica in comparison with thiol modified silica nanospheres, suggesting the negative effects of thiol groups. The solid catalyst could be reused at least 8 reaction cycles without significant decrease in activity and selectivity. This study not only supplies an active, recoverable catalyst for the green transformation of styrene, but also demonstrates that the hollow silica nanosphere material has a superior ability in stabilizing metal nanoparticles against growth.

The reactive and stable catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction are highly desirable for low temperature fuel cells. The commercial oxygen reduction reaction electrocatalysts generally reply on noble metal based nanomaterials, which suffer from inherent cost and selectivity issues. At present, it still remains challenge for designing efficient non-noble metal-based oxygen reduction reaction electrocatalysts. Herein, we successfully synthesize Co nanoparticles supported on three-dimensionally N-doped holey graphene aerogels hybrids by the high-temperature calcination of the graphene aerogels-polyallylamine-Co II hybrids. The component optimized hybrids show the excellent electrocatalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction in alkaline media, which is comparable to commercial Pt/C electrocatalyst. Meanwhile, the hybrids also show eminent tolerance for CO and methanol, attributing to their excellent oxygen reduction reaction selectivity. The three-dimensionally interconnected structure of graphene aerogels, N-doping, uniform dispersion and high crystallinity of Co nanoparticles, and holey structure of graphene contribute to the striking oxygen reduction reaction activity of hybrids.

Growing of ZnO nanoparticles on PET films without crystal seeding has been achieved by employing polydopamine as the anchor. The PDA layer was formed on the surface of PET film by the polymerization of dopamine. The PDA-PET was dipped into zinc precursors for hydrothermal growth of ZnO nanoparticles. Cluster-like ZnO nanoparticles were obtained and the special structure was affected by the growing time and zinc ion concentration. The surface morphology, structure and properties were characterized, and the functions including antimicrobial activity and UV protection of the ZnO-coated PET film were investigated. The developed facile hydrothermal approach without seeding will benefit the development of UV resistant and antimicrobial PET films.

Aiming at deep profile control in water flooding reservoirs, a heterogeneous combination flooding system, composed of dispersed particle gel (DPG) and a zwitterionic surfactant (THSB), was developed. The mean particle diameter was adjusted and then the DPG morphology and diameter were characterized using a laser scanning, confocal microscope, and dynamic light scattering. The effects of DPG concentration, temperature, pH, and salinity on THSB interfacial tension (IFT) were investigated. A method for determining DPG concentration was proposed, and the dynamic retention and migration mechanisms of the particles were evaluated, using cores with different permeabilities. Finally, the oil displacement mechanism of the combination flooding system was explored through visual simulation experiments and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the particle diameter was 2.5 μm, that compared with a surfactant system, the IFT of the combination flooding system was relatively low, and that the temperature, pH, and NaCl content of solutions had little effect on THSB IFT. Since specific matching relationships between DPG particles and reservoir pore throats existed, the retention amount and injection pressure were improved with the increased core permeability. Visual simulation experiments revealed the oil recovery mechanism of the combination flooding system. This combination flooding system can be used in reservoirs under varied conditions, as the particle diameter can be adjusted on a case-by-case basis, and the THSB surfactant proved to be high-temperature resistant and high-salinity tolerant. The combination flooding system can be applied to deep profile control and oil displacement, in oil fields.

The aim of the study was to explore the synergistic effects of nanostructure size and surface treatment of TiO 2 coatings on its wettability and bacteria adhesion. The coatings were fabricated by TiO 2 particles with a diameter ranging from 25 nm to 300 nm. The surface wettability of coatings was tuned by chemical treatment. The anti-adhesion property of as-prepared coatings was evaluated with Streptococcus mutans in two types of solutions: phosphate buffer solution (PBS) and PBS with 1 wt% sucrose. The results show that particle size and surface treatment have significant influences on the wettability (with contact angles of 0–160°) and bacterial adhesion. The coating prepared by chemically modified 25 nm particles has a superhydrophobic property, and could inhibit bacterial adhesion in aqueous solutions with sucrose or not. The study also provides a facile, universal and low-cost process to fabricate anti-adhesion coating, which is applicable for diverse of substrates.
