Abstract
Given that exosomes released from cancer cells carry various tumor-specific proteins on their surface, they have emerged as a source of biomarkers for cancer diagnosis. However, developing accurate and reliable assays to detect exosomes in the early stages of disease with low abundance and complex systems remains challenging. Here, the prepared PDIG film has the ability to sense multiple signals from a single stimulus, in which the presence of cobalt(II) chloride and deep eutectic solvents (DES) endows PDIG with thermochromic and thermosensitive properties. Concretely, the PDIG served as the recognition interface in series with a bipolar electrode (BPE) that exhibits a highly sensitive color and conductivity response to temperature stimuli triggered by the light-harvesting probe TiO2@CNOs introduced via proximity hybridization assay triggering a rolling circle amplification strategy, resulting in the output of colorimetric, photoacoustic, and electrochemiluminescent signals for the detection of colorectal cancer exosomes. This work is expected to provide a new direction for exploring the multisignal amplification strategy of BPE, broaden the application of BPE in biological analysis, and provide new insights for developing highly information-sensing elements to ensure the multimodal coupling for cancer-specific exosome detection.

Abstract
We have developed large-scale one-dimensional photonic crystals from standard recordable Blu-ray disks, tailored to sense unlabeled biorecognition events on their surface. These materials rely on coating, with layers of 80 nm of titanium oxide, nanogrooved polycarbonate plates obtained from regular disks. As a result, they present guided-mode resonances that we have demonstrated that can be exploited to quantify biorecognition events by means of the bandgap positions in the transmission spectra. These photonic crystals have displayed well-correlated dose-response curves in immunoassays to quantify IgGs, C-reactive protein, and lactate dehydrogenase. The detection limit reached is 16 ng/mL, 2μg/mL, and 18 ng/mL, respectively. Herein we describe the experimental procedures and methods to fabricate and functionalize these photonic crystals, perform immunoassays on them, set up an optical system to measure their response, and process the resulting data to perform bioanalytical determinations in label-free format.

Abstract
Photochemical reactions that produce a detectable change in the spectroscopic properties of organic chromophores can be exploited to harness the principles of Boolean algebra and design molecule-based logic circuits. Moreover, the logic processing capabilities of these photoactive molecules can be directed to protect, encode, and conceal information at the molecular level. We have designed a photochemical strategy to read, write and encrypt data in the form of optical signals. We have synthesized a supramolecular system based on the known dye resazurin, and investigated a series of photochemical transformations that can be used to regulate its absorption and emission properties upon illumination with ultraviolet or visible light. We have then examined the logic behaviour of the photochemistry involved, and illustrated its potential application in data encryption.

Abstract
The incorporation of photoactive donor-acceptor Stenhouse adduct (DASA) moieties into Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) provides a new route to the development of visible light switching materials. Herein, a DUT-5 mixed-linker defect series was exploited to produce a derivative group of DASA-modified materials via postsynthetic modification (PSM). The photoactive MOFs exhibited conversion stimulated by visible wavelengths and were stable following multiple cycles. Thermodynamic and metastable states persisted over an extended time period.

Abstract
Time-resolved absorption spectroscopy measurements were performed to study the dynamics of photochromic 1,2-Bis(2,4-dimethylthiophene-3-yl)perfluoro-cyclopentene (DMTPF) in chloroform, including antiparallel conformer ring-closure reaction and parallel conformer photophysics. All characteristic times are given, discussed and compared to a previous publication concerning the close molecule substituted with phenyl rings. (Hamdi et al., PCCP, 2016). Apart from the expected photocyclization process, condensed ring by-product formation is observed and hypotheses concerning the origin of this by-product are presented.

Abstract
Light-controlling the physical and chemical properties of smart polymers by using photochromic compounds has been an interesting research subject. Incorporation of spiropyran (SP) on the surface of particles can induce photoswitchable aggregation/disaggregation to stimuli-responsive colloids. Herein, we developed a novel class of stimuli-responsive latex particles bearing SP with different contents (0, 0.5, 1, 3, and 5 wt %) by semicontinuous emulsifier-free emulsion copolymerization, which is able to change the particle size by light-induced aggregation/disaggregation in response to ultraviolet (UV) irradiation and visible light. The scanning electron microscopy images revealed the spherical morphology of the latex particles, with the size in the range of 400-900 nm. Light-induced aggregation and disaggregation of stimuli-responsive latex particles were investigated by dynamic light scattering and also confirmed by variation of transmittance during UV illumination time using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The range of the light-induced shift in the particle size is about 200-600 nm (depending on the concentration of SP), where the reduction of transmittance upon UV irradiation (and conversely upon visible light) confirms the ability of latex particles for displaying reversible photoswitchable aggregation/disaggregation and also light-controlling the particle size. The kinetics of SP to merocyanine (MC) and MC to SP isomerizations were experimentally investigated and fitted by exponential equations. The photochromic latexes displayed remarkable photoswitchability and photofatigue resistant properties under alternating UV and visible light irradiation cycles. Additionally, these stimuli-responsive latexes displayed potential applications such as anticounterfeiting inks in erasable and rewritable writings on cellulosic papers for increasing safety in security documents.

Abstract
Increase of safety in security documents by using anticounterfeiting inks based on fluorochromic and photochromic compounds has attracted a great deal of attention in the recent years. Herein, we developed novel functionalized stimuli-responsive latex particles containing spiropyran (1 wt %) by semicontinuous emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization, which are usable as anticounterfeiting inks for marking on security documents and also photopatterning on cellulosic papers. The size and morphology of the latex particles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering and their functionality was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. All the stimuli-responsive latexes are composed of spherical particles with different hydroxyl, epoxy, and carboxylic acid functional groups, and the size of the particles varies in the range of 400-900 nm. Additionally, the latex particles undergo a remarkable light-induced size variation (aggregation-disaggregation) upon UV illumination (365 nm), depending on the functional group type, as a result of π-π stacking interactions and also electrostatic attractions between the different particles. The photochromic behavior, kinetics of the SP ⇌ MC isomerization, photoswitchability, and photofatigue-resistant characteristics of the prepared latexes were extensively investigated. The results display that the photochromic behavior and SP ⇌ MC isomerization can significantly be influenced by the polar interactions between the functional groups and MC molecules. As a novel application, the prepared stimuli-responsive latexes were used as anticounterfeiting inks for writing on cellulosic paper and also security marking on several monies, where the written phrase displayed red fluorescence emission and coloration under and after UV illumination (365 nm), respectively. Additionally, the latexes were sprayed on cellulosic papers to prepare stimuli-responsive papers for investigation of their photopatterning ability under UV irradiation and different masking. The presence of functional groups and large particle sizes are the main effective factors for stabilization of the latex particles on cellulosic papers. This is the first report on application of functionalized stimuli-responsive latex particles containing spiropyran as anticounterfeiting inks for security marking and photopatterning on cellulosic papers, directly and without using further additives.

Abstract
One-dimensional photonic crystal slabs are periodic optical nanostructures that produce guided-mode resonance. They couple part of the incident light into the waveguide generating bandgaps in the transmittance spectrum, whose position is sensitive to refractive index variations on their surface. In this study, we present one-dimensional photonic crystal slab biosensors based on the internal nanogrooved structure of Blu-ray disks for label-free immunosensing. We demonstrated that this polycarbonate structure coated with a critical thickness of TiO2 generates guided-mode resonance. Its optical behavior was established comparing it with other compact disk structures. The results were theoretically calculated and experimentally demonstrated, all them being in agreement. The bioanalytical performance of these photonic crystals was experimentally demonstrated in a model assay to quantify IgGs as well as in two immunoassays to determine the biomarkers C-reactive protein and lactate dehydrogenase (detection limits of 0.1, 87, and 13 nM, respectively). The results are promising towards the development of new low-cost, portable, and label-free optical biosensors that join these photonic crystals with dedicated bioanalytical scanners based on compact disk drives.

Abstract
Photo-responsive multifunctional nanomaterials are receiving considerable attention for biological applications because of their unique properties. The functionalization of the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene, among other carbon based nanomaterials, with molecular switches that exhibit reversible transformations between two or more isomers in response to different kind of external stimuli, such as electromagnetic radiation, temperature and pH, has allowed the control of the optical and electrical properties of the nanomaterial. Light-controlled molecular switches, such as azobenzene and spiropyran, have attracted a lot of attention for nanomaterial's functionalization because of the remote modulation of their physicochemical properties using light stimulus. The enhanced properties of the hybrid materials obtained from the coupling of carbon based nanomaterials with light-responsive switches has enabled the fabrication of smart devices for various biological applications, including drug delivery, bioimaging and nanobiosensors. In this review, we highlight the properties of photo-responsive carbon nanomaterials obtained by the conjugation of CNTs and graphene with azobenzenes and spiropyrans molecules to investigate biological systems, devising possible future directions in the field.
