Abstract
A simple and efficient strategy for enhancing the interfacial interaction in carbon fiber-reinforced poly(arylene sulfide sulfone) (CF/PASS) composites by grafting polymeric chains via thiol-ene click chemistry is reported here. Simultaneously, three thiol compounds and carbon nanotubes were grafted on CFs to explore the reaction between the CF and thiol groups. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and normalized temperature-dependent IR spectroscopy results confirm the successful grafting of three thiol compounds, carbon nanotubes, and polymer chains. Similarly, obvious changes on the CF surface can be seen before and after modification via scanning electron microscopy, such as grafted nanotubes and polymeric resin, and the increase in the modulus gradient and interfacial thickness of CF/PASS can be clearly seen via atomic force microscopy. All the results of micro and macro tests on mechanical properties indicate that connecting low molecular weight thiol-terminated PASS (HS-LPASS) onto CFs enhances the interfacial property and mechanical performance of CF/PASS to a greater extent. The interfacial shear strength, interlaminar shear strength, and tensile strength of CF@HS-LPASS-reinforced PASS (CF@HS-LPASS/PASS) increase significantly by 38.5, 43.6, and 24.4%, respectively. All the results demonstrate that thiol-ene click reactions can be used for CF modification; furthermore, in the presence of external stress, the grafted polymeric interphase can act as a "bridge layer" to improve the stress transfer efficiency.

Abstract
The construction of an efficient conductive interface between electrodes and electroactive proteins is a major challenge in the biosensor and bioelectrochemistry fields to achieve the desired nanodevice performance. Concomitantly, metallo-organic terpyridine wires have been extensively studied for their great ability to mediate electron transfer over a long-range distance. In this study, we report a novel stepwise bottom-up approach for assembling bioelectrodes based on a genetically modified model electroactive protein, cytochrome c553 (cyt c553) and an organometallic terpyridine (TPY) molecular wire self-assembled monolayer (SAM). Efficient anchoring of the TPY derivative (TPY-PO(OH)2) onto the ITO surface was achieved by optimising solvent composition. Uniform surface coverage with the electroactive protein was achieved by binding the cyt c553 molecules via the C-terminal His6-tag to the modified TPY macromolecules containing Earth abundant metallic redox centres. Photoelectrochemical characterisation demonstrates the crucial importance of the metal redox centre for the determination of the desired electron transfer properties between cyt and the ITO electrode. Even without the cyt protein, the ITO-TPY nanosystem reported here generates photocurrents whose densities are 2-fold higher that those reported earlier for ITO electrodes functionalised with the photoactive proteins such as photosystem I in the presence of an external mediator, and 30-fold higher than that of the pristine ITO. The universal chemical platform for anchoring and nanostructuring of (photo)electroactive proteins reported in this study provides a major advancement for the construction of efficient (bio)molecular systems requiring a high degree of precise supramolecular organisation as well as efficient charge transfer between (photo)redox-active molecular components and various types of electrode materials.

Abstract
The effective synthesis and self-assembly of graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposites are of key importance for a broad range of nanomaterial applications. In this work, a one-step chemical strategy is presented to synthesize stable GO-polymer Langmuir composite films by interfacial thiol-ene photopolymerization at room temperature, without use of any crosslinking agents and stabilizing agents. It is discovered that photopolymerization reaction between thiol groups modified GO sheets and ene in polymer molecules is critically responsible for the formation of the composite Langmuir films. The film formed by Langmuir assembly of such GO-polymer composite films shows potential to improve the mechanical and chemical properties and promotes the design of various GO-based nanocomposites. Thus, the GO-polymer composite Langmuir films synthesized by interfacial thiol-ene photopolymerization with such a straightforward and clean manner, provide new alternatives for developing chemically modified GO-based hybrid self-assembled films and nanomaterials towards a range of soft matter and graphene applications.

Abstract
In the field of material chemistry, it is of great significance to develop abundant and sustainable materials for solar energy harvesting and management. Herein, after evaluating the energy band characteristics of 13 kinds of polyoxometalates (POMs), the trisubstituted POM compound K6H4[α-SiW9O37Co3(H2O)3]·17H2O (SiW9Co3) was first studied due to its relatively smaller band gap (2.23 eV) and higher lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) level (-0.63 V vs NHE). Additionally, the preliminary computational modeling indicated that SiW9Co3 exhibited the donor-acceptor (D-A) structure, in which the cobalt oxygen clusters and tungsten skeletons act as the electron donor and electron acceptor, respectively. By employing SiW9Co3 to modify the TiO2 film, the visible photovoltaic and photocurrent response were both enhanced, and the light-induced photocurrent at 420 nm was improved by 7.1 times. Moreover, the highly dispersive and small sized SiW9Co3 nanoclusters loading on TiO2 were successfully achieved by fabricating the nanocomposite film of {TiO2/SiW9Co3}3 with the layer-by-layer method, which can result in the photovoltaic performance enhancement of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), of which the overall power conversion efficiency was improved by 25.6% from 6.79% to 8.53% through the synergistic effect of POMs and Ru-complex.

Abstract
The multilayer films were fabricated by layer-by-layer electrostatically coassembling graphene oxide and a ruthenium complex of [Ru(bpy)2L](ClO4)2 {L = 2-(2,6-di(pyridin-2-yl)pyridine-4-yl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f]-1,10-phenanthroline} and characterized using UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and cyclic voltammetry. The dependence of redox properties and cathodic photocurrents on the number of layers deposited and the photocurrent generation mechanism and polarity were studied in detail. The homogeneous growth and close packing of the two film-forming components, linear relationships of the dark cyclic voltometry peak currents and photocurrents vs number of layers deposited, and large cathodic photocurrent density of 4.1 μA/cm(2) for a four-layer film make this novel hybrid thin film promising applications ranging from molecular photovoltaic and photocatalytic molecular devices to photoelectrochemical sensing.
