Large-Scale, Uniform-Patterned CsCu I Films for Flexible Solar-Blind Photodetectors Array with Ultraweak Light Sensing.

Cesium copper halide perovskite is one of the promising materials for solar-blind light detection. However, most of the cesium copper halide perovskite-based photodetectors (PDs) are focused on ultraviolet A detection and realized on the rigid substrate in the single device configuration. Here, a flexible solar-blind PDs array (10 × 10 pixels) based on the CsCu I film patterns for ultraweak light sensing and light distribution imaging is reported.

Biologically Inspired Stretchable, Multifunctional, and 3D Electronic Skin by Strain Visualization and Triboelectric Pressure Sensing.

Electronic skins have been developed for sensing vertical pressure and tensile strain individually. Here, a stretchable, multifunctional, and 3D electronic skin (SMTE) is fabricated to imitate the squid's natural structure to achieve strain visualization and pressure sensing at the same time. The SMTE consists of an anisotropic and elastic light shutter to tune the natural color or fluorescence, which converts the in-plane strain to the visual changes in color and intensity.

Environmentally friendly antibacterial cotton textiles finished with siloxane sulfopropylbetaine.

This paper reports a novel environmentally friendly antibacterial cotton textile finished with reactive siloxane sulfopropylbetaine(SSPB). The results show that SSPB can be covalently bound onto the cotton textile surface, imparting perdurable antibacterial activity. The textiles finished with SSPB have been investigated systematically from the mechanical properties, thermal stability, hydrophilic properties and antibacterial properties.
