MIL-100(Fe) has been demonstrated as a commonly used photocatalyst but is limited by the deficient charge separation efficiency and difficult recovery. In this work, by taking advantages of the strong plasmonic absorption and electron conductivity of Ag nanoparticles, as well as the fast magnetic response of the Fe 3 O 4 , core/shell Ag/Fe 3 O 4 @MIL-100(Fe) (AFM) was facilely prepared by a direct hydrothermal reaction between H 3 btc and Ag/Fe 3 O 4 (AF) for photo-Fenton degradation of RhB assisted by H 2 O 2 . Specifically, the Fe 3 O 4 in AF acted as both ion precursor and protector to inhibit Ag aggregation to obtain uniform and dispersed core/shell AFM. By adjusting the MIL-100(Fe) thickness and the Ag proportion, the optimum AFM exhibits superior photo-Fenton activity to decompose 88.5% RhB within 30 min under visible-light irradiation and H 2 O 2 addition, which is much higher than that of AFM in the presence of either light (58.5%) or H 2 O 2 (46.6%) due to the synergistic effects of visible-light absorption by MIL-100(Fe) and ·OH generation from H 2 O 2 . Moreover, the catalyst can be collected conveniently for its strong magnetic responsibility. This work may be beneficial to the development of effective photo-Fenton catalysts. Graphical abstract A novel magnetically recyclable Ag/Fe 3 O 4 @MIL-100(Fe) with special core/shell structure was facilely synthesized by hydrothermal method with superior photo-Fenton activity for dye degradation.

Due to the rapid development of information technology and the trend toward miniaturization of electronic equipment, the research on electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials is rapidly moving toward low-dimensional, core–shell, and lightweight directions, with a wide range of application prospects in various fields. In this study, using pDA as a binder, poly(vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF)/Fe3O4@pDA@Ag nanofiber membranes (NFMs) with a multicore–shell structure were prepared by in situ growth of Ag nanoparticle (NP) layers on the fiber surface of electrospun PVDF/Fe3O4 NFMs fabricated in batch. Compared to PVDF@pDA@Ag NFM, the average EMI shielding efficiency (SE) of PVDF/Fe3O4@pDA@Ag NFM reached 82.31 dB because of the increased hysteresis and multireflection losses inside the NFM caused by the moderate addition of Fe3O4 NPs. In addition, the synergistic effect of Fe3O4 and Ag NPs increased the microwave attenuation and impedance matching of composite NFM, further enhancing its EMI SE.

Nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) is a common gas that can cause irreversible damage to human health, emphasizing the essentiality of developing highly sensitive NO 2 sensors with good selectivity and low consumption. Here, a facile in–situ cation exchange method was employed to successfully synthesize interlayer expansion Ag intercalated SnS 2 with S vacancies for NO 2 gas sensing. The presence of S vacancies strongly improves the electronic structure of SnS 2 and significantly facilitates the interaction of NO 2 with the sensor. Moreover, the interlayer spacing of SnS 2 is expanded by 0.48 Å after Ag intercalation, prompting diffusion behavior of NO 2 molecules between the interlayers. Benefiting from the factors above, SnS 2 –Ag exhibited excellent gas sensing performance for NO 2 with a high response to 5 ppm NO 2 (response value = 8.37) and detection limits as low as 200 ppb at a low temperature of 100 °C. This work combines defect engineering with interlayer engineering to provide a new perspective for extending the application of SnS 2 gas sensors.

Photothermal therapy is a promising approach for cancer treatment. In our study, we investigate the photothermal effect of different concentrations of the Ag@Fe3O4 nanoparticles on apoptosis and proliferation in the human epithelial ovarian cancer cells SKOV3. Ovarian cancer cells SKOV3 were treated with the Ag@Fe3O4 nanoparticles under an 808 nm near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation at different concentrations. The cell proliferation was measured by the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. The results show that the Ag@Fe3O4 nanoparticles with NIR laser irradiation could markedly inhibit the proliferation of the ovarian cancer cells SKOV3 independent of a concentration-time manner. Meanwhile, the cell morphology was also seriously damaged under the treatment of high-concentration nanoparticles. However, Ag@Fe3O4 nanoparticles have almost no obvious effect on the growth of SKOV3 cells without NIR laser illumination treatment. Therefore, it is reasonable to believe that the Ag@Fe3O4 nanoparticles have promising applications in photothermal treatment of cancer cells.

In this work, we synthesized Au-Ag alloy nano-garlands with multiple petal-like branches and internal cavities in two steps. First, we etched silver nanospheres with HAuCl 4 to obtain Au-Ag alloy nanoshells with different shell layer thicknesses and hollow core sizes. After that, based on different nanoshells, 4-NTP was used as a shape-directing agent, HAuCl 4 and AgNO 3 as precursor raw materials, and AA as a reducing agent for the growth of petals to form Au-Ag bimetallic nano-garlands with multi-branching structure. The regulation of the branching morphology of the nano-garlands could be achieved by changing the amounts of 4-NTP and HAuCl 4 . The SERS activity of the nano-garlands could be further improved by changing the AA concentration, the size of nanoshells, and the Au/Ag ratio of the precursor raw materials. Because the bimetallic nano-garlands have hollow cavities and petal-like branches, there are couplings between the cavities and the branches, between the adjacent branches, and between the metals inside and outside of the cores, which can achieve a good enhancement of SERS. The highest SERS enhancement factor of Au-Ag bimetallic nano-garlands can reach 4.47×10 8 , which can be used as a good candidate for SERS substrate for the trace detection of biomolecules , pesticides, and other substances.

The quaternary diamond-like compounds, A 2 Cu 3 In 3 Te 8 ( A = Cd, Zn, Mn, Mg), are a new class of thermoelectric materials recently proposed by complex structure design. Among them, the Zn 2 Cu 3 In 3 Te 8 compound possesses reasonable electrical transport properties but relatively high lattice thermal conductivity. Herein, the effects of Ag substitution on the phase stability and thermoelectric properties of Zn 2 Cu 3 In 3 Te 8 compound are reported. It is revealed that only the In sites show an appreciable tolerance for Ag doping. Ag substitution at the In sites introduces extra holes and thus results in improved electrical transport properties. Furthermore, the introducing of Ag lowers the sound velocities and enhances the phonon scattering of the Zn 2 Cu 3 In 3 Te 8 compound, which leads to a substantially reduction in lattice thermal conductivity. Finally, in virtue of the optimization in both electrical and thermal transport properties, the maximal zT value of Zn 2 Cu 3 In 2.8 Ag 0.2 Te 8 sample reaches 0.62 at 823 K, which is 43% higher than the pristine sample.

A biomass cellulose-based colorimetric sensor for Ag + and Cu 2+ was prepared by grafting 2,5-dithiourea (DTu) onto biomass-pulp cellulose. The as-prepared sensor (cellulose-DTu) showed excellent selectivity and sensitivity towards Cu 2+ over other common metal ions (Pb 2+ , Mn 2+ , Mg 2+ , Zn 2+ , Hg 2+ , K + , Al 3+ , Ca 2+ , Na + , Cd 2+ , Ni 2+ , Ba 2+ , and Li + ), exhibiting a color change from white to light grey. However, the sensor exhibited a remarkable color change from white to yellow-red upon the addition of Ag + . The naked-eye-detection concentration limits for Ag + and Cu 2+ were 10 −3 and 10 -4 mol/L, respectively. Furthermore, cellulose-DTu responded to both Ag + and Cu 2+ within 5 s. A mechanism for the selective identification of Ag + and Cu 2+ by cellulose-DTu was proposed based on 13 C solid NMR, XPS, and TEM analyses. In addition, the application of cellulose-DTu in real water confirmed that it exhibits the advantages of simplicity, rapidity, and high selectivity for in-situ identification of Ag + and Cu 2+ .

Herein, we successfully obtained Ho 3+ and Ag + -codoped Cs 2 NaBiCl 6 halide double perovskites (DPs) via a hydrothermal method , which exhibit orange-red broadband self-trapped excitons (STE) emission and visible (Vis) and near-infrared (NIR) narrow band emission attributed to Ho 3+ f-f transition, under 360 nm excitation. Compared to the single Ho 3+ -doped sample, the Vis PL intensity of the codoped sample was increased by nearly 13.8 times, and an enhanced photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 87.45 % was achieved. The PL enhancement is attributed to the partial substituting of Na + with Ag + , leading to an efficient STE emission, and the more energy transition from STE to Ho 3+ . Moreover, the synthesized phosphor exhibits good stability in thermal and atmospheric environments. White light-emitting diode (WLED) is fabricated by employing Cs 2 Na 0·997 Ag 0·003 Bi 0.935 Ho 0.065 Cl 6 on near-ultraviolet (n-UV) LED chips, achieving a color rendering index (CRI) of 95.0 and correlated color temperature (CCT) of 3814 K. Anti-counterfeit patterns and the application for night vision monitoring were also discussed. This study inspires the designing of high-quality phosphors of rare earth-doped DPs and expands the multi-domain luminescence applications of halide DPs.

A chitin-fastening Ag@AgCl composite film with decontamination properties was successfully prepared by one-step coagulation method of the chitin- LiCl/Dimethyl Acetamide (DMAc) solution with AgNO 3 . In this process, AgCl was formed in a chitin solution with the addition of AgNO 3 solution, and with the help of excess Cl − a solution of AgCl was formed. AgCl nanocrystals embedded on the surface of chitin were obtained after the solution was put into coagulation bath . The AgCl nano-crystals embedded on the surface of chitin film could be partly transformed into the Ag@AgCl by appropriate visible-light irradiation in the air. In order to explore the morphology and the formation mechanism of the composites, the well-prepared films were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy (XPS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), ultraviolet spectro-photometry and UV–visible absorption spectrum . The decontamination ability and recyclability of composite film was evaluated by the degradation rate of methyl orange (MO) in recycling process. By comparison, the Ag@AgCl fastened in chitin matrix was more stable than fastened by cellulose matrix. Its photo-degradation efficiency could be still retained up to 95% after 5-cycle testing. Meanwhile, the composite film could be also kept excellent mechanical properties. This work provided a simple pathway to construct the functional chitin film which could be applied as a kind of stable recycling decontamination materials.

A novel composite structure of reduced graphene oxide (rGO)–Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) nanocomposite, which was integrated on the indium tin oxide (ITO) glass by a facile and rapid two-step chronoamperometry electrodeposition route, was proposed and developed in this paper. SERS-activity of the rGO/Ag NPs nanocomposite was mainly affected by the structure and size of the fabricated rGO/Ag NPs nanocomposite. In the experiments, the operational conditions of electrodeposition process were studied in details. The electrodeposited time was the important controllable factor, which decided the particle size and surface coverage of the deposited Ag NPs on ITO glass. Under the optimized conditions, the detection limit for rhodamine6G (R6G) was as low as 10 −11 M and the Raman enhancement factor was as large as 5.9 × 10 8 , which was 24 times higher than that for the ITO–Ag NPs substrate. Apart from this higher enhancement effect, it was also illustrated that extremely good uniformity and reproducibility with low standard deviation could be obtained by the prepared ITO-rGO/Ag NPs nanocomposite for SRES detection.

Given the increasingly severe environmental problems caused by water pollution, the degradation of organic dyes can be effectively achieved through the utilization of photocatalysis. In this work, metal alkoxides and a combination of alcohol/hydrophobic solvents are employed to prepare BaTiO3aerogels via a liquid-phase and template-free synthetic route. The preparation process of the aerogels solely entails facile agitation and supercritical drying, eliminating the need for additional heat treatment. The binary solvent of ethanol and toluene is identified as the optimal choice, resulting in a significantly enhanced surface area (up to 223 m2/g) and an abundant pore structure of BaTiO3aerogels compared to that of the BaTiO3nanoparticles. Thus, the removal efficiency of the BaTiO3aerogel sample for MO is nearly twice as high as that of the BaTiO3nanoparticles sample. Noble metal Ag nanoparticles’ deposition onto the BaTiO3aerogel surface is further achieved via the photochemical deposition method, which enhances the capture of photogenerated electrons, thereby ensuring an elevated level of photocatalytic efficiency. As a result, Ag nanoparticles deposited on BaTiO3aerogel can degrade MO completely after 40 min of illumination, while the corresponding aerogel before modification can only remove 80% of MO after 60 min. The present work not only complements the preparatory investigation of intricate aerogels but also offers a fresh perspective for the development of diverse perovskite aerogels with broad applications.

An Ag/TiO 2 coating was deposited onto glazed ceramic tiles by a sol-gel and spraying method at high temperatures. The coating was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy . The results showed that silver was present in rutile-TiO 2 , and the temperature did not change the phase composition of the samples. The Ag/TiO 2 coating had a higher roughness than the TiO 2 coating. The tape test (D 3359–08) showed that the coatings prepared at 950 °C and 1000 °C had good adhesion to the ceramic tile substrate. The antibacterial activity of the coating was tested by photocatalytic sterilization experiments. The results showed that the Ag/TiO 2 coating had a higher antibacterial activity than the TiO 2 coating, and the sterilization efficiency of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Shigella , and Salmonella exceeded 99.655% under 2 h of visible light irradiation. This research provides a method to create Ag/TiO 2 coatings with good thermal resistance, adhesion, and antibacterial activity. This improves the low photocatalytic activity caused by the anatase-to-rutile transformation of TiO 2 at high temperatures and the poor adhesion at low temperatures.
