Abstract
Fingerprints provide sufficient and reliable discriminative characteristics which have been considered one of the most robust evidence for individualization. The limitation of current minutiae-based fingerprint technology seems to be solved with the development of level 3 features since they can offer additional information for problematic fingerprint recognition and even donor profiling. So far, tremendous efforts have been devoted to detecting and analysing the third-level details. This review summarizes the advances in level 3 details with an emphasis on their reliability assessment, visualization methods based on physical interaction, residue-response, mass spectrometry and electrochemical techniques, as well as the potentiality for individualization, donor profiling and even other application scenarios. In the end, we also give a personal perspective on the future direction and the remaining challenges in the third-level-detail-related field. We believe that the new exciting progress is expected in the development of level 3 detail detection and analysis with continued interest and attention to this field.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) have attracted increasing interest in recent years owing to their desirable properties. Despite the availability of diverse elaborate CDs, the function and application of CDs are far to be fully exploited. Here, biomass-derived carbon dots dispersed in a polymer matrix are found to behave as ink-free patterned substrates, which are demonstrated to be useful for nondestructive collection and recognition of latent fingerprints (LFPs), as well as printing. The coating of CD/poly(vinyl alcohol) solution on a LFP yields a flexible transparent film; a stable fluorescent fingerprint with clear ridge details enabling personal identification is formed on this film. Encouragingly, this method can be applied to nondestructively lift and recognize long-timely exposed LFPs from various surfaces. The mechanism for LFP collection and visualization is proposed, which should be ascribed to the interfacial segregation of CDs in the polymer matrix during the film forming process. This mechanism is further validated by and utilized for application of CD/polymer composites in relief printing, intaglio printing, and micro-trace transferring.

Abstract
Rapid, simple and highly sensitive identification of latent fingerprints (LFPs) is an important issue related to national security and recognition of potential crimes. Here, we synthesize a series of covalent organic polymers (COPs) with colorful fluorescence (from blue to green, pale yellow, bright yellow, and red) and further investigate their performance for fluorescence imaging of LFPs. Results indicate that the COP materials can be used as fluorescence probes to rapidly visualize the precision substructure of LFPs within 5 s by simply spraying method, and tunable fluorescent color makes the COP probes have a high contrast and low interference for fluorescence imaging of LFPs on different substrates (including glass slides, paper, aluminum foil, plastic, ironware) in different backgrounds. We also further reveal the mechanism of COP probes for fluorescence imaging of LFPs. Importantly, the COP probes show high stability and could successfully achieve the fluorescence imaging for LFPs after aged for 45 days or washed by water. In short, this is the first report on the porous polymers for fluorescence imaging of LFPs and expected that it can be also applied to the fluorescence imaging of other fields.

Abstract
The development of highly efficient latent fingerprint (LFP) technology remains extremely vital for forensic and criminal investigations. In this contribution, a straightforward, rapid, and cost-effective method has been established for the quick development of well-preserved latent fingerprint on multiple substrates, including plastic, glass, aluminum foil, metallic surfaces, and so forth, without any additional treatment, based on aggregation-induced enhanced emission-active conjugated polyelectrolyte (CPE) 3,3'-((2-(4-(1,2-diphenyl-2-(p-tolyl)vinyl)phenyl)-7-(7-methylbenzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazol-4-yl)-9H-fluorene-9,9-diyl)bis(hexane-6,1-diyl))bis(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium) bromide, revealing clearly the third-level details (ridges, bifurcations, and pores) with high selectivity, high contrast, and no background interference even by blood stains, confirming the ability of the proposed technique for LFP detection with high resolution. The LFP development process was accomplished simply by immersing fingerprint-loaded substrate into the CPE solution for ∼1 min, followed by shaking off the residual polymer solution and then air drying. The CPE was readily transferred to the LFPs because of the strong electrostatic and hydrophobic interaction between the CPE molecules and the fingerprint components revealing distinct fluorescent images on various smooth nonporous surfaces.

Abstract
Poly(p-phenylenevinylene) (PPV) nanoparticles in aqueous colloidal solution have been prepared via a modified Wessling method, with the addition of surfactant. The fluorescent colloidal solution was used as the developing solution to develop the fingerprints on different substrates. The developing process was accomplished simply by immersing the substrates into developing solution and then taking out, followed by rinsing with deionized water. The initial study about the fingerprints on the adhesive tapes showed that the developing solution is very effective in fluorescence development on both fresh and aged visible fingerprints; and such an effect was negligibly affected by treating the fingerprints with water or other organic solvents, whether before developing or after. Further study on latent fingerprints (LFPs) demonstrated that PPV nanoparticles in colloidal solution have high sensitivity in developing fingerprints to give very clearly fluorescent patterns. At least 6 months of storage of the colloidal solution did not reduce the developing effect; and each developing solution (3.6 mg/mL, 5.0 mL) can be used to develop at least 30 fingerprints without sacrificing the legibility of the pattern. The preliminary mechanism investigation suggested that selectivity achieved toward the ridge of the fingerprint is very likely due to the affinity between PPV molecules and oily secretions of the fingerprints. Digital magnification of the developed fingerprints provided more details about the fingerprint.

Abstract
Search for traces: Aptamer-bound Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) were used to provide high-resolution dark-field microscopy images of latent fingerprints (LFPs) with level 2 and level 3 details. Furthermore, the cocaine-induced aggregation of Au NPs results in a true green-to-red color change of the scattered light, providing a quasi-quantative method to identify cocaine loadings in LFPs.
