Abstract
Graphitic-phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4) materials have exhibited increasingly remarkable performance as emerging electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitters, owing to their unique optical and electronic properties; however, the ECL merits of porous g-C3N4 nanofibers doped with ternary metals are not yet explored. Deciphering the ECL properties of trimetal-doped g-C3N4 nanofibers could provide an exquisite pathway for ultrasensitive sensing and imaging with impressive advantages of minimal background signal, great sensitivity, and durability. Herein, we rationally synthesized g-C3N4 nanofibers doped atomically with Mn, Fe, and Co elements (Mn/Fe/Co/g-C3N4) in a one-pot via the protonation in ethanol and annealing process driven by the rolling up mechanism. The ECL performance of g-C3N4 with and without metal dopants was investigated and compared with standard Ru(bpy)32+ in the presence of potassium persulfate (K2S2O8) as the coreactant. Notably, g-C3N4 nanofibers doped with metal ions exhibited an ECL efficiency of 483% that was 4.83 times higher than that of Ru(bpy)32+. Mechanistic investigations unveiled that the g-C3N4 nanofibers possess a large surface area and, as a result, exhibit a reduced interfacial impedance within the porous microstructure. These factors contribute to the acceleration of charge transfer rates and the stabilization of charge carriers and excitons, ultimately facilitating the ECL process. This research endeavor may pave the way for a new hot research area and serves as a powerful tool for elucidating fundamental inquiries of ECL on one-dimensional g-C3N4 nanostructures.

Abstract
It is of great significance for the analysis of multiple biomarkers because a single biomarker is difficult to accurately achieve early diagnosis, disease course monitoring, and prognosis evaluation. Herein, a luminescence thermosensitive hydrogel was synthesized by radical polymerization using a methacrylic acid derivative monomer of luminol (LuMA) as luminescent, N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) as thermosensitive monomer, and acrydite-oligonucleotides [dopamine (DA) aptamer, DNA C1, and DNA C2] as recognition elements. The combined DA based on the affinity interaction between the DA and the aptamer on the hydrogel polymer chain was electrochemically oxidized to dopamine quinone during the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) scanning, which effectively quenched the ECL signal of LuMA due to the resonance energy transfer (RET). In addition, the thermosensitive hydrogel showed swelling-collapse characteristics when the temperature was below and above the volume phase transition temperature. Undergoing the collapse process initiated by the temperature, the RET efficiency was further enhanced due to the shortened distance between the energy donor and acceptor, showing a 1.4 times signal amplification and achieving sensitive detection of DA with a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.7 × 10-10 M. For a proof of concept application, coupled with the target-induced release of DA from the DNA-magnetic beads bioconjugations based on duplex-specific nuclease (DSN)-assisted target recycling amplification strategy and DNAzyme cleavage reaction, this ECL-RET approach was successfully used to evaluate multiple targets including miRNA-141 and MUC1 with the LOD of 2.5 aM and 1.6 fg/mL, respectively. The excellent performances of the versatile and robust ECL-RET hydrogel in multiple target sensing showed potential applications in clinical diagnosis and disease therapeutic assay.

Abstract
In recent years, electrochemiluminescence (ECL) has received enormous attention and has emerged as one of the most successful tools in the field of analytical science. Compared with homogeneous ECL, the heterogeneous (or solid-state) ECL has enhanced the rate of the electron transfer kinetics and offers rapid response time, which is highly beneficial in point-of-care and clinical applications. In ECL, the luminophore is the key element, which dictates the overall performance of the ECL-based sensors in various analytical applications. Tris(2,2'-bipyridyl)ruthenium (II) complex, Ru(bpy)32+, is a coordination compound, which is the gold-standard luminophore in ECL. It has played a key role in translating ECL from a "laboratory curiosity" to a commercial analytical instrument for diagnosis. The aim of the present review is to provide the principles of ECL and classical reaction mechanisms-particularly involving the heterogeneous Ru(bpy)32+/co-reactant ECL systems, as well as the fabrication methods and its importance over solution-phase Ru(bpy)32+ ECL. Then, we discussed the emerging technology in solid-state Ru(bpy)32+ ECL-sensing platforms and their recent potential analytical applications such as in immunoassay sensors, DNA sensors, aptasensors, bio-imaging, latent fingerprint detection, point-of-care testing, and detection of non-biomolecules. Finally, we also briefly cover the recent advances in solid-state Ru(bpy)32+ ECL coupled with the hyphenated techniques.

Abstract
Bead-based assays are successfully combined with electrochemiluminescence (ECL) technology for detection of a wide range of biomarkers. Herein, we demonstrate a novel approach to enhance the ECL signal by decorating micrometric beads with [Ru(bpy)3]2+-grafted microgels (diameter ∼100 nm). Rapid and stable light emission was spatially resolved at the level of single functionalized beads. An enhancement of the ECL signal of microgel-labeled beads by 9-fold was observed in comparison to molecularly linked [Ru(bpy)3]2+ beads prepared by a sandwich immunoassay or an amide bond. Imaging the ECL signal at the single bead level shows that the size of the ECL-emitting layer is extended using the microgels. The reported method offers a great promise for the optimization of bead-based ECL detection and subsequent development of ECL microscopy.

Abstract
Herein, for the first time, we introduced a novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) luminophore based on a one-dimensional g-C3N4 nanotube using K2S2O8 as the coreactant. The g-C3N4 nanotube/K2S2O8 couple displayed very satisfactory ECL performance, i.e., an ECL efficiency (ΦECL) of 437% (vs 100% for the Ru(bpy)32+/K2S2O8 reference) and excellent ECL stability (the relative standard deviation (RSD) = 0.78%). By contrast, ΦECL and RSD of the control g-C3N4 nanosheet/K2S2O8 couple were merely 196% and 45.34%, respectively. The mechanism study revealed that the g-C3N4 nanotube features a large surface area and much lower interfacial impedance in the porous microstructure, which are beneficial for accelerating the charge transfer rate and stabilizing charge/excitons for ECL. Moreover, using the g-C3N4 nanotube/K2S2O8 system as a sensing platform, excellent Cu2+ detection capability was also achieved. Our work thus triggers a promising g-C3N4 nanomaterial system toward ECL application.

Abstract
A combination of plasmonic nanoparticles with a semiconductor is a feasible approach to realize multiple color exhibitions. The phenomenon is based on plasmon-driven charge separation between electrons and metal ions, but suitable only for light excitation with different wavelengths. Here, we introduce a color-adjustable method under monochromatic light irradiation. A smart strategy is proposed to construct sandwich structures of a hydrogel coating layer, thermally deposited Ag nanoparticles, and mesoporous TiO2 matrices. The contacting mode of TiO2 and nano-Ag at the Schottky interface is strongly dependent on the pore morphology of the oxide. Surface and interface plasmon resonances result in sample color switching from cyan to green and from brown to purple, respectively. The color response ability is further controlled by hydrogel coating, besides the exciting light wavelength. This Letter paves a bright way for colorful displays and information encryption.

Abstract
Boronic acids can reversibly bind diols, a molecular feature that is ubiquitous within saccharides, leading to their use in the design and implementation of sensors for numerous saccharide species. There is a growing understanding of the importance of saccharides in many biological processes and systems; while saccharide or carbohydrate sensing in medicine is most often associated with detection of glucose in diabetes patients, saccharides have proven to be relevant in a range of disease states. Herein the relevance of carbohydrate sensing for biomedical applications is explored, and this review seeks to outline how the complexity of saccharides presents a challenge for the development of selective sensors and describes efforts that have been made to understand the underpinning fluorescence and binding mechanisms of these systems, before outlining examples of how researchers have used this knowledge to develop ever more selective receptors.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) showed great potential in various analytical applications, especially in the sensing of biotargets, taking advantage of its high sensitivity, selectivity, ease of spatial and temporal control, and simplified optical setup. However, during the sensing of complex biological samples, ECL sensors often suffered severe interferences from unavoidable nonspecific-binding of biomacromolecules and physical damages of ECL sensing interfaces. Herein, a hydrogel based ECL biosensing system exhibiting excellent anti-biofouling and self-healing properties is developed. A protein hydrogel composed of bovine serum albumin (BSA) directed fluorescent Au/Ag alloy nanoclusters (Au/Ag NCs) is applied in building ECL sensing systems. The hydrogel matrix facilitates the immobilization of fluorescent Au/Ag NCs as excellent ECL probes, and the porous hydrophilic structure allows the free diffusion of small molecular biotargets while rejecting macromolecular interferences. Moreover, the hydrogel exhibits excellent self-healing property, with the ECL intensity recovered rapidly in 10 min after cutting. The hydrogel ECL system is successfully applied in sensing glutathione (GSH) in serum, confirming the applicability of the hydrogel based anti-biofouling ECL sensing system in sensing complex biological samples. This research may inspire the development of novel anti-biofouling and self-healing ECL biosensors for biosensing applications.

Abstract
In this work, bipolar electrochemistry is used to perform wireless indirect electrodeposition of two different polymer coatings on both sides of carbon nanotube arrays. Using a thermoresponsive hydrogel on one side and an inert insoluble polymer on the other side, it is possible to generate, in a single step, a nanoporous reservoir with Janus character closed on one side by a thermoresponsive membrane. The thermoresponsive polymer, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAM), is generated by the local reduction of persulfate ions, which initiates radical polymerization of NIPAM. Electrophoretic paint (EP) is chosen as an inert polymer. It is deposited by precipitation because of a local decrease in pH during water oxidation. Both polymers can be deposited simultaneously on opposite sides of the bipolar electrode during the application of the electric field, yielding a double-modified Janus object. Moreover, the length and thickness of the polymer layers can be controlled by varying the electric field and the deposition time. This concept is applied to vertically aligned carbon nanotube arrays (VACNTs), trapped inside an anodic aluminum oxide membrane, which can further be used as a smart reservoir for chemical storage and release. A fluorescent dye is loaded in the VACNTs and its release is studied as a function of temperature. Low temperature, when the hydrogel layer is in the swollen state, allows diffusion of the molecule. Dye release occurs on the hydrogel-modified side of the VACNTs. At high temperatures, when the hydrogel layer is in the collapsed state, dye release is blocked because of the impermeability of the pNIPAM layer. This concept paves the way toward the design of advanced devices in the fields of drug storage and directed delivery.

Abstract
A multi-color-tunable supramolecular hydrogel is constructed from aminoclay (AC), sulfato-β-cyclodextrin (SCD), and 4-methyl-styrylpyridinium (SP), in which the SCD⊃SP complex emits monomer fluorescence, and AC provides a restricted environment for excimer emission. The emission color of the supramolecular hydrogel can be tuned from yellow → white → blue by adjusting the SCD/SP molar ratio.

Abstract
Developing ultrasensitive chemical sensors with small scale and fast response through simple design and low-cost fabrication is highly desired but still challenging. Herein, a simple and universal sensing platform based on a hydrogel interferometer with femtomol-level sensitivity in detecting (bio)chemical molecules is demonstrated. A unique local concentrating effect (up to 109 folds) in the hydrogel induced by the strong analyte binding and large amount of ligands, combined with the signal amplification effect by optical interference, endows this platform with an ultrahigh sensitivity, specifically 10-14 m for copper ions and 1.0 × 10-11 mg mL-1 for glycoprotein with 2-4 order-of-magnitude enhancement. The specific chemical reactions between selected ligands and target analytes provide high selectivity in detecting complex fluids. This universal principle with broad chemistry, simple physics, and modular design allows for high performance in detecting wide customer choices of analytes, including metal ions and proteins. The scale of the sensor can be down to micrometer size. The nature of the soft gel makes this platform transparent, flexible, stretchable, and compatible with a variety of substrates, showing high sensing stability and robustness after 200 cycles of bending or stretching. The outstanding sensing performance grants this platform great promise in broad practical applications.

Abstract
One strategy that has gained much attention in the last decades is the understanding and further mimicking of structures and behaviours found in nature, as inspiration to develop materials with additional functionalities. This review presents recent advances in stimuli-responsive gels with emphasis on functional hydrogels and microgels. The first part of the review highlights the high impact of stimuli-responsive hydrogels in materials science. From macro to micro scale, the review also collects the most recent studies on the preparation of hybrid polymeric microgels composed of a nanoparticle (able to respond to external stimuli), encapsulated or grown into a stimuli-responsive matrix (microgel). This combination gave rise to interesting multi-responsive functional microgels and paved a new path for the preparation of multi-stimuli "smart" systems. Finally, special attention is focused on a new generation of functional stimuli-responsive polymer hydrogels able to self-shape (shape-memory) and/or self-repair. This last functionality could be considered as the closing loop for smart polymeric gels.
