Abstract
Mild photothermal therapy (MPTT) generates heat therapeutic effect at the temperature below 45 °C under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, which has the advantages of controllable treatment efficacy, lower hyperthermia temperatures, reduced dosage, and minimized damage to surrounding tissues. Despite significant progress has been achieved in MPTT, it remains primarily in the stage of basic and clinical research and has not yet seen widespread clinical adoption. Herein, a comprehensive overview of the recent NIR MPTT development was provided, aiming to emphasize the mechanism and obstacles, summarize the used photothermal agents, and introduce various biomedical applications such as anti-tumor, wound healing, and vascular disease treatment. The challenges of MPTT were proposed with potential solutions, and the future development direction in MPTT was outlooked to enhance the prospects for clinical translation.

Abstract
Smart materials demonstrate fascinating responses to environmental physical/chemical stimuli, including thermal, photonic, electronic, humidity, or magnetic stimuli, which have attracted intensive interest in material chemistry. However, their limited/harsh stimuli-responsive behavior or sophisticated postprocessing leads to enormous challenges for practical applications. Herein, we rationally designed and synthesized thermochromic Ni(II) organometallic [(C2H5)2NH2]2NiCl4-xBrx via a facile mechanochemical strategy, which demonstrated a reversible switch from yellow to blue color with a tunable phase-transition temperature from 75.6 to 61.7 °C. The simple electrospinning technology was applied to fabricate thermochromic Ni(II) organometallic-based nanofiber membranes for temperature monitoring. Furthermore, the organic charge-transfer cocrystal with a wide spectral absorption of 300-1950 nm and a high-efficiency photothermal conversion was combined with thermochromic Ni(II) organometallics for the desired dual-stimuli photo/thermochromism. This work supplies a new strategy for realizing multiple stimuli-responsive applications, such as thermal/light sensor displays and information storage.

Abstract
The close relationship between bacteria and tumors has recently attracted increasing attention, and an increasing number of resources are being invested in the research and development of biomedical materials designed for the treatment of both. In this study, prefabricated TiN nanodots (NDs) and Fe(CO)5 nanoparticles are combined into sodium alginate (ALG) hydrogels to create a biomedical material for the topical treatment of breast cancer and subcutaneous abscesses, and a pseudocatalytic hydrogel with intrinsic photothermal and antibacterial activities is synthesized. TiN+Fe(CO)5+ALG hydrogels are used to determine the ability of Fe(CO)5 to promote CO production. Moreover, TiN NDs catalyze the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from hydrogen peroxide in tumor microenvironments and exhibit excellent photothermal conversion properties. After local injection of the TiN+Fe(CO)5+ALG hydrogel into subcutaneous tumors and subcutaneous abscesses, and two-zone near-infrared (NIR-II) irradiation, tumor cells and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus are effectively removed by the hydrogel, the mouse epidermis exhibiting complete recovery within 8 d, indicating that this hydrogel exhibits better antibacterial efficacy than the small-molecule antibiotic penicillin. This study demonstrates the potential of novel hydrogels for antitumor and antimicrobial combination therapy and aims to provide design ideas for the research and development of multifunctional antitumor and antimicrobial drug combinations.

Anion-Counterion Strategy toward Organic Cocrystal Engineering for Near-Infrared Photothermal Conversion and Solar-Driven Water Evaporation. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202318628. [PMID: 38225206 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202318628] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 12/29/2023] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 01/17/2024]
Abstract
An anion-counterion strategy is proposed to construct organic mono-radical charge-transfer cocrystals for near-infrared photothermal conversion and solar-driven water evaporation. Ionic compounds with halogen anions as the counterions serve as electron donors, providing the necessary electrons for efficient charge transfer with unchanged skeleton atoms and structures as well as the broad red-shifted absorption (200-2000 nm) and unprecedented photothermal conversion efficiency (~90.5 %@808 nm) for the cocrystals. Based on these cocrystals, an excellent solar-driven interfacial water evaporation rate up to 6.1±1.1 kg ⋅ m-2 ⋅ h-1 under 1 sun is recorded due to the comprehensive evaporation effect from the cocrystal loading in polyurethane foams and chimney addition, such performance is superior to the reported results on charge-transfer cocrystals or other materials for solar-driven interfacial evaporation. This prototype exhibits the great potential of cocrystals prepared by the one-step mechanochemistry method in practical large-scale seawater desalination applications.

Abstract
Organic semiconductor materials are considered to be promising photocatalysts due to their excellent light absorption by chromophores, easy molecular structure tuning, and solution-processable properties. In particular, donor-acceptor (D-A) type organic photocatalytic materials synthesized by introducing D and A units intra- or intermolecularly, have made great progress in photocatalytic studies. More and more studies have demonstrated that the D-A type organic photocatalytic materials combine effective carrier separation, tunable bandgap, and sensitive optoelectronic response, and are considered to be an effective strategy for enhancing light absorption, improving exciton dissociation, and optimizing carrier transport. This review provides a thorough overview of D-A strategies aimed at optimizing the photocatalytic performance of organic semiconductors. Initially, essential methods for modifying organic photocatalytic materials, such as interface engineering, crystal engineering, and interaction modulation, are briefly discussed. Subsequently, the review delves into various organic photocatalytic materials based on intramolecular and intermolecular D-A interactions, encompassing small molecules, conjugated polymers, crystalline polymers, supramolecules, and organic heterojunctions. Meanwhile, the energy band structures, exciton dynamics, and redox-active sites of D-A type organic photocatalytic materials under different bonding modes are discussed. Finally, the review highlights the advanced applications of organic photocatalystsand outlines prospective challenges and opportunities.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) light is well-suited for the optical imaging and wireless phototherapy of malignant diseases because of its deep tissue penetration, low autofluorescence, weak tissue scattering, and non-invasiveness. Rare earth nanoparticles (RENPs) are promising NIR-responsive materials, owing to their excellent physical and chemical properties. The 4f electron subshell of lanthanides, the main group of rare earth elements, has rich energy-level structures. This facilitates broad-spectrum light-to-light conversion and the conversion of light to other forms of energy, such as thermal and chemical energies. In addition, the abundant loadable and modifiable sites on the surface offer favorable conditions for the functional expansion of RENPs. In this review, the authors systematically discuss the main processes and mechanisms underlying the response of RENPs to NIR light and summarize recent advances in their applications in optical imaging, photothermal therapy, photodynamic therapy, photoimmunotherapy, optogenetics, and light-responsive drug release. Finally, the challenges and opportunities for the application of RENPs in optical imaging and wireless phototherapy under NIR activation are considered.

Abstract
Organic cocrystal engineering provides a promising route to promote the near-infrared (NIR) light harvesting and photothermal conversion (PTC) abilities of small organic molecules through the rich noncovalent bond interactions of D/A units. Besides, the single-bond rotatable groups known as "rotors" are considered to be conducive to the nonradiative transitions of the excited states of organic molecules. Herein, we propose a single-/double-bond dual-rotor strategy to construct D-A cocrystals for NIR PTC application. The results reveal that the cocrystal exhibits an ultra-broadband absorption from 300 nm to 2000 nm profiting from the strong π-π stacking and charge transfer interactions, and the weakened p-π interaction. More importantly, the PTC efficiency of cocrystals at 1064 nm in the NIR-II region can be largely enhanced by modulating the number of rotor groups and the F-substituents of D/A units. As is revealed by fs-TA spectroscopy, the superior NIR PTC performance can be attributed to the nonradiative decays of excited states induced by the free rotation of the single-bond rotor (-CH3) from the donors and the inactive double-bond rotor ([double bond, length as m-dash]C(C[triple bond, length as m-dash]N)2) being in the active form of [-C(C[triple bond, length as m-dash]N)2] in the excited states from the acceptors. This prototype displays a promising route to extend the functionalization of small organic molecules based on organic cocrystal engineering.

Abstract
The specific stacking mode of D/A blocks is often considered to largely determine the physicochemical properties of cocrystals. However, this rule may fail when encountering a large degree of (integer or near-integer) charge transfer situations. Herein, we explore the extensive correlations between the possible smallest structural units, stacking modes, and near-infrared photothermal conversion (NIR-PTC) properties of F4TCNQ-based cocrystals with typical features of integer-charge-transfer. Surprisingly, these cocrystals with distinct stacking modes display analogous D-A interactions, broad red-shift absorption, ultrafast (1-3 ps) relaxation dynamics of excited states, and excellent NIR-PTC properties. This supports that the resulting "D+A-" ion pairs from integer-charge-transfer may serve as the primary structural units beneath the secondary stacking modes to dominate the property of cocrystals. The stacking modes play an important but only secondary role. This work provides new insights into the structure-dynamics-property correlations and modular design of organic cocrystals for PTC and other applications.

Abstract
Harvesting sunlight into cost-effective electricity presents an enticing prospect for self-powered wearable applications. The photothermal materials with an extensive absorption are fundamental to achieve optical and thermal concentration of the sunlight for efficiency output electricity of wearable solar thermoelectric generators (STEGs). Here, we synthesize an organic charge-transfer (CT) cocrystal with a flat absorption from ultraviolet to second near-infrared region (200 to 1950 nanometers) and a high photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) of 80.5%, which is introduced into polyurethane toward large-area nanofiber membrane by electrospinning technology. These corresponding membranes demonstrate a high PCE of 73.7% under the strain more than 80%. Sandwiched with carbon nanotube-based thermoelectric fibers, the membranes as stretchable solar absorbers of STEGs could supply a notably increase temperature gradient, processing a maximum output voltage density of 23.4 volts per square meter at 1:00 p.m. under sunlight. This strategy presents an important insight in heat management for wearable STEGs with a desired electricity output.

Abstract
Organic multilayer heterostructures with accurate spatial organization demonstrate strong light-matter interaction from excitonic responses and efficient carrier transfer across heterojunction interfaces, which are considered as promising candidates toward advanced optoelectronics. However, the precise regulation of the heterojunction surface area for finely adjusting exciton conversion and energy transfer is still formidable. Herein, organic bilayer heterostructures (OBHs) with controlled face-to-face heterojunction via a stepwise seeded growth strategy, which is favorable for efficient exciton propagation and conversion of optical interconnects are designed and synthesized. Notably, the relative position and overlap length ratio of component microwires (LDSA /LBPEA = 0.39-1.15) in OBHs are accurately regulated by modulating the crystallization time of seeded crystals, resulting into a tailored heterojunction surface area (R = Loverlap /LBPEA = 37.6%-65.3%). These as-prepared OBHs present the excitation position-dependent waveguide behaviors for optical outcoupling characteristics with tunable emission colors and intensities, which are applied into two-dimensional (2D) photonic barcodes. This strategy opens a versatile avenue to purposely design OBHs with tailored heterojunctions for efficient energy transfer and exciton conversion, facilitating the application possibilities of advanced integrated optoelectronics.

Abstract
The first coordination-saturated buckyball with a C60 molecule totally encased in an icosidodecahedral Cu30 in a (μ30 -(η2 )30 )-fashion, namely C60 @Cu30 @Cl36 N12 , has been successfully realized by a C60 -templated assembly. The 48 outmost coordinating atoms (36Cl+12N) comprise a new simple polyhedron that is described by a ccf topology. Charge transfer from (CuI , Cl) to C60 explains the expansion of the light absorption up to 700 nm, and accounts for an ultrafast photophysical process that underpins its high photothermal conversion efficiency. This work makes a giant step forward in exohedral metallofullerene (ExMF) chemistry.

Abstract
Three "π"-shaped D-A-type thiodiazoloquinoxaline derivatives with different electronic structures and rotations have been prepared. Their particular structures allow these molecules to possess a broad absorption range and sufficient intramolecular motions, dissipating energy through a thermal deactivation pathway. Among the three materials, TPA-TQN showed the best steam generation efficiency (84.52%) and water-electricity cogeneration efficiency (63.95%). This study suggests that D-A structures with different electronic configurations, free rotors, and hydrophilicities make great contributions to the overall solar energy conversion performances.

Mechanochemistry toward Organic "Salt" via Integer-Charge-Transfer Cocrystal Strategy for Rapid, Efficient, and Scalable Near-Infrared Photothermal Conversion. CHEMSUSCHEM 2023; 16:e202300644.

Abstract
Inspired by the concept of ionic charge-transfer complexes for the Mott insulator, integer-charge-transfer (integer-CT) cocrystals are designed for NIR photo-thermal conversion (PTC). With amino-styryl-pyridinium dyes and F4TCNQ (7,7',8,8'-Tetracyano-2,3,5,6-tetrafluoroquinodimethane) serving as donor/acceptor (D/A) units, integer-CT cocrystals, including amorphous stacking "salt" and segregated stacking "ionic crystal", are synthesized by mechanochemistry and solution method, respectively. Surprisingly, the integer-CT cocrystals are self-assembled only through multiple D-A hydrogen bonds (C-H⋅⋅⋅X (X=N, F)). Strong charge-transfer interactions in cocrystals contribute to the strong light-harvesting ability at 200-1500 nm. Under 808 nm laser illumination, both the "salt" and "ionic crystal" display excellent PTC efficiency beneficial from ultrafast (∼2 ps) nonradiative decay of excited states. Thus integer-CT cocrystals are potential candidates for rapid, efficient, and scalable PTC platforms. Especially amorphous "salt" with good photo/thermal stability is highly desirable in practical large-scale solar-harvesting/conversion applications in water environment. This work verifies the validity of the integer-CT cocrystal strategy, and charts a promising path to synthesize amorphous PTC materials by mechanochemical method in one-step.

Dual Charge Transfer Generated from Stable Mixed-Valence Radical Crystals for Boosting Solar-to-Thermal Conversion. ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2023:e2300980.

Abstract
Realizing dual charge transfer (CT) based on stable organic radicals in one system is a long-sought goal, however, remains challenging. In this work, a stable mixed-valence radical crystal is designed via a surfactant-assisted method, namely TTF-(TTF+• )2 -RC (where TTF = tetrathiafulvalene), containing dual CT interactions. The solubilization of surfactants enables successful co-crystallization of mixed-valence TTF molecules with different polarity in aqueous solutions. Short intermolecular distances between adjacent TTF moieties within TTF-(TTF+• )2 -RC facilitate both inter-valence CT (IVCT) between neutral TTF and TTF+• , and inter-radical CT (IRCT) between two TTF+• in radical π-dimer, which are confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, solid-state absorption, electron spin resonance measurements, and DFT calculations. Moreover, TTF-(TTF+• )2 -RC reveals an open-shell singlet diradical ground state with the antiferromagnetic coupling of 2J = -657 cm-1 and an unprecedented temperature-dependent magnetic property, manifesting the main monoradical characters of IVCT at 113-203 K while the spin-spin interactions in radical dimers of IRCT are predominant at 263-353 K. Notably, dual CT characters endow TTF-(TTF+• )2 -RC with strong light absorption over the full solar spectrum and outstanding stability. As a result, TTF-(TTF+• )2 -RC exhibits significantly enhanced photothermal property, an increase of 46.6 °C within 180 s upon one-sun illumination.
