Article Abstract

Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite (OIHP) has attracted a great deal of interest with respect to diverse optoelectronic devices. However, the photophysical properties of the OIHP require further understanding because most of the investigations have been conducted with polycrystalline perovskites, which contain high-density structural defects. Here, diverse photophysical properties, including structural characterization, spectroscopic features, and photoexcited products, are studied in submicrometer CHNHPbBr ultrathin single-crystal (UTSC) films. Unlike polycrystalline films and large single crystals, the UTSC film provides a unique platform for studying spectroscopic characteristics of single-crystal perovskites. Compared with the polycrystalline film, the UTSC film presents an atomically flat morphology and near-perfect lattice with a lower defect density, leading to an isotropic system that can be applied in the construction of high-performance optoelectronic devices. Furthermore, a long lifetime emissive channel assigned to the trion is indicated, which is scarcely found in perovskite polycrystalline films. Our results profoundly improve our understanding of their photophysical properties and expand the horizons for perovskite materials in photonic applications.

Background: The development of specific fluorescent probes for cancer cell discrimination holds significant promise for advancing cancer diagnostics. Conventionally, these probes operate by translating differences in biomarkers or microenvironmental factors into variations in whole-cell fluorescence intensity. However, this dominant, intensity-based strategy is highly susceptible to extraneous fluctuations arising from probe concentration, illumination instability and complex intracellular environment.

Water-insensitive down-shifting nanoparticles for sensitive biosensing.

Conventional optical probes suffer from signal degradation in aqueous media, hindering sensitive biodetection. To overcome this, newly developed water-insensitive down-shifting nanoparticles (WINPs) possess superior photophysical properties in the NIR-I window, including high quantum yield and negligible thermal effects, permitting stable, high-contrast signal generation under low excitation power. This advantage facilitated a low-power lateral flow assay capable of highly sensitive avian influenza virus (AIV) detection in the opaque biological matrices (such as avian swabs), mitigating interference issues relying on visible-range signals.

To assess the efficacy of a mixed-dimensional van der Waals (vdW) heterostructure in modulating the optoelectronic responses of nanodevices, the charge transport properties of the transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD)-based heterostructure comprising zero-dimensional (0D) WS quantum dots (QDs) and two-dimensional (2D) MoS flakes are critically analyzed. Herein, a facile strategy was materialized in developing an atomically thin phototransistor assembled from mechanically exfoliated MoS and WS QDs synthesized using a one-pot hydrothermal route. The amalgamated photodetectors exhibited a high responsivity of ∼8000 A/W at an incident power of 0.

This research provides a constructive approach for developing high-performance polymer nanohybrids toward enhancing optoelectronic properties, fluorogenic viscosity sensing, and metal-free electrocatalytic oxidation of glycerol to value-added organic(s). Herein, reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and mildly oxidized RGO (MRGO) are strategically combined with fluorescent electroactive polymers (FEPs) to develop a promising sustainable metal-free electrocatalytic system suitable for amplifying opto-electrochemical properties, multiplatform sensing capacity, and electrocatalytic efficiency. The optimized polymeric counterpart (FEP2) promotes dual-state emission in the supramolecular network of RGO-/MRGO-incorporated fluorescent electroactive hybrid polymers (RFEHPs/MFEHPs) through physicochemically confined atypical electron-rich -C(═O)NH-/-C(═O)O-/-SOH fluorophores of (hydroxyethyl)methacrylate and 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane-1-sulfonic acid monomers.

BN-fused aromatic compounds have garnered significant attention due to their unique electronic structures and exceptional photophysical properties, positioning them as highly promising candidates for applications in organic optoelectronics. However, the regioselective synthesis of BN isomers remains a formidable challenge, primarily stemming from the difficulty in precisely controlling reaction sites, limiting structural diversity and property tunability. Herein, we propose a regioselective synthetic strategy that employs 2,1-BN-naphthalene derivatives, wherein selective activation of N-H and C-H bonds is achieved in conjunction with -halogenated phenylboronic acids.
