Abstract
The nanocrystallization of functional molecules has been a subject of recent interest in the current development of nanotechnology. Herein, we report the unprecedented synthesis of single nanocrystals of a molecular gold nanocluster in a homogeneous solution by using surfactant-based nano-envelopes. The co-assembling of a Au8 nanocluster carrying lipophilic phosphine ligands with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in an aqueous solution results in the formation of sphere-shaped amorphous nano-aggregates coated with the surfactant. Upon sonication, the spherical amorphous aggregates are smoothly shape-shifted into discrete rhombic nanocrystals, which can be tracked by TEM and solution XRD. The transformation into single nanocrystals occurs exclusively without further growth or agglomeration, implying that the crystal growth is restricted within the surfactant nano-envelopes. The robust but flexible nature of the wrapped surfactant is likely responsible for the controlled crystallization. We also demonstrate that the amorphous-to-nanocrystalline transition in solution remarkably enhances the photoluminescence emission from the nanocluster, providing a clear example of crystallization-induced emission enhancement. Notably, the obtained nanocrystals showed high stability in solution and retained their shape, size, and PL intensity even after several months, owing to the densely packed surfactant shell. The present surfactant-directed nanocrystallization method may be applicable to other molecular species to contribute to the development of nanocluster science as well as the designed synthesis of nanomaterials.

Abstract
Photocatalytic systems have attracted research interest as a clean approach to generate energy from abundant sunlight. In this context, developing efficient and robust photocatalytic structures is crucial. Recently, self-assembled organic chromophores have entered the stage as alternatives to both molecular systems and (in)organic semiconductors. Nanostructures made of self-assembled π-conjugated dyes offer, on the one hand, molecular customizability to tune their optoelectronic properties and activities and on the other hand, provide benefits from heterogeneous catalysis that include ease of separation, recyclability and improved photophysical properties. In this contribution, we present recent achievements in constructing supramolecular photocatalytic systems made of chromophores for applications in water splitting, H2O2 evolution, CO2 reduction, or environmental remediation. We discuss strategies that can be used to prepare ordered photocatalytic systems with an emphasis on the effect of packing between the dyes and the resulting photocatalytic activity. We further showcase supramolecular strategies that allow interfacing the organic nanostructures with co-catalysts, molecules, polymers, and (in)organic materials. The principles discussed here are the foundation for the utilization of these self-assembled materials in photocatalysis.

Abstract
Designing and constructing supramolecular photosensitizer nanosystems with highly efficient photodynamic therapy (PDT) is vital in the nanomedical field. Despite recent advances in forming well-defined superstructures, the relationship between molecular arrangement in nanostructures and photodynamic properties has rarely been involved, which is crucial for developing stable photosensitizers for highly efficient PDT. In this work, through a microemulsion-assisted self-assembly approach, indium porphyrin (InTPP) was used to fabricate a series of morphology-controlled self-assemblies, including nanorods, nanospheres, nanoplates, and nanoparticles. They possessed structure-dependent 1O2 generation efficiency. Compared with the other three nanostructures, InTPP nanorods featuring strong π-π stacking, J-aggregation, and high crystallinity proved to be much more efficient at singlet oxygen (1O2) production. Also, theoretical modeling and photophysical experiments verified that the intermolecular π-π stacking in the nanorods could cause a decreased singlet-triplet energy gap (ΔEST) compared with the monomer. This played a key role in enhancing intersystem crossing and facilitating 1O2 generation. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that the InTPP nanorods could trigger cell apoptosis and tumor ablation upon laser irradiation (635 nm, 0.1 W/cm2) and exhibited negligible dark toxicity and high phototoxicity. Thus, the supramolecular self-assembly strategy provides an avenue for designing high-performance photosensitizer nanosystems for photodynamic therapy and beyond.

Abstract
Porphyrins and their derivatives are widely used as photosensitizers and sonosensitizers in tumor treatment. Nevertheless, their poor water solubility and low chemical stability reduce their singlet oxygen (1O2) yield and, consequently, their photodynamic therapy (PDT) and sonodynamic therapy (SDT) efficiency. Although strategies for porphyrin molecule assembly have been developed to augment 1O2 generation, there is scope for further improving PDT and SDT efficiencies. Herein, we synthesized ordered manganese porphyrin (SM) nanoparticles with well-defined self-assembled metalloporphyrin networks that enabled efficient energy transfer for enhanced photocatalytic and sonocatalytic activity in 1O2 production. Subsequently, Au nanoparticles were grown in situ on the SM surface by anchoring the terminal alkynyl of porphyrin to form plasmonic SMA heterostructures, which showed the excellent near-infrared-II (NIR-II) region absorption and photothermal properties, and facilitated electron-hole pair separation and transfer. With the modification of hyaluronic acid (HA), SMAH heterostructure nanocomposites exhibited good water solubility and were actively targeted to cancer cells. Under NIR-II light and ultrasound (US) irradiation, the SMAH generates hyperthermia, and a large amount of 1O2, inducing cancer cell damage. Both in vitro and in vivo studies confirmed that the SMAH nanocomposites effectively suppressed tumor growth by decreasing GSH levels in SDT-augmented PDT/PTT. Moreover, by utilizing the strong absorption in the NIR-II window, SMAH nanocomposites can achieve NIR-II photoacoustic imaging-guided combined cancer treatment. This work provides a paradigm for enhancing the 1O2 yield of metalloporphyrins to improve the synergistic therapeutic effect of SDT/PDT/PTT.

Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) exert their biological functions by perturbation with cellular membrane. Conjugation of AMPs with photosensitizer (PS) is a promising strategy for enhancing the efficacy and reducing systemic toxicity of AMPs. However, it is still elusive how the conjugated PS impacts the perturbation of AMPs on cell membrane from molecular level. Here, we addressed this issue by a multiscale computational strategy on pyropheophorbide-a (PPA) conjugated K6L9 (PPA-K6L9), a PS-AMP conjugate developed by us previously. Our atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations revealed that the porphyrin moiety of PPA enhanced the stability of the conjugate in a lipid bilayer membrane model. Moreover, such moiety also maintained the amphipathic structure of K6L9, which is crucial for membrane pore formation. Coarse-grained MD simulations further showed that the conjugates aggregated in membrane environment and formed more stable toroidal pores with respect to K6L9 alone, suggesting the conjugation of PPA may enhance the membrane-disruption activity of K6L9. Consistent with this, our cellular experiments confirmed that PPA-K6L9 was more toxic to 4 T1 tumor cells than K6L9. This study provides insights into the mechanism by which PS-AMP conjugates disrupt cellular membranes and could aid in the design of more potent AMP conjugates.

Abstract
Porphyrins easily aggregate due to unfavorable π-π accumulation, causing luminescent quenching in the aqueous phase and subsequently reducing luminescent efficiency. It is a feasible way to immobilize porphyrin molecules through metal-organic framework materials (MOFs). In this study, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis (4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (TCPP) was introduced into the metal-organic skeleton (PCN-224) as a ligand. The result showed that the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and photoluminescence (PL) efficiency of the MOF skeleton was 8.2 and 6.5 times higher than TCPP, respectively. Impressively, the periodic distribution of porphyrin molecules in the MOF framework can overcome the bottleneck of porphyrin aggregation, resulting in the organic ligand TCPP participating in the electron transfer reaction. Herein, based on the PCN-224, a sandwich-type ECL immunosensor was constructed for the determination of cardiac troponin I (cTnI). It provided sensitive detection of cTnI in the range of 1 fg/mL to 10 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.34 fg/mL. This work not only innovatively exploited a disaggregation ECL (DIECL) strategy via the crystalline framework of MOF to enhance the PL and ECL efficiency of porphyrin but also provided a promising ECL platform for the ultrasensitive monitoring of cTnI.

Abstract
Coordination polymers (CPs) have emerged as promising candidates for photocatalytic H2 production owing to their structural tailorability and functional diversity. However, the development of CPs with high energy transfer efficiency for highly efficient photocatalytic H2 production in a wide pH range still faces many challenges. Here we constructed a novel tube-like Pd(ii) coordination polymer with well-distributed Pd nanoparticles (denoted as Pd/Pd(ii)CPs) based on the coordination assembly of rhodamine 6G and Pd(ii) ions and further photo-reduction under visible light irradiation. Both the Br- ion and double solvent play a key role in forming the hollow superstructures. The resulting tube-like Pd/Pd(ii)CPs exhibit high stability in aqueous solution with the pH range from 3 to 14 due to the high Gibbs free energies of protonation and deprotonation, which provides the feasibility of photocatalytic hydrogen generation in a wide pH range. Electromagnetic field calculations showed that the tube-like Pd/Pd(ii)CPs have a good confinement effect on light. Therefore, the H2 evolution rate could reach 112.3 mmol h-1 g-1 at pH 13 under visible light irradiation, which is far superior to those of reported coordination polymer-based photocatalysts. Moreover, such Pd/Pd(ii)CPs could also reach a H2 production rate of 37.8 mmol h-1 g-1 in seawater under visible light with low optical density (40 mW cm-2) close to morning or cloudy sunlight. The above unique characteristics make the Pd/Pd(ii)CPs possess great potential for practical applications.

Abstract
Transforming solar energy into chemical bonds is a promising and viable way to store solar energy. Porphyrins are natural light-capturing antennas, and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is an effective, artificially synthesized organic semiconductor. Their excellent complementarity has led to a growing number of research papers on porphyrin/g-C3N4 hybrids for solar energy utilization. This review highlights the recent progress in porphyrin/g-C3N4 composites, including: (1) porphyrin molecules/g-C3N4 composite photocatalysts connected via noncovalent or covalent interactions, and (2) porphyrin-based nanomaterials/g-C3N4 composite photocatalysts, such as porphyrin-based MOF/g-C3N4, porphyrin-based COF/g-C3N4, and porphyrin-based assembly/g-C3N4 heterojunction nanostructures. Additionally, the review discusses the versatile applications of these composites, including artificial photosynthesis for hydrogen evolution, CO2 reduction, and pollutant degradation. Lastly, critical summaries and perspectives on the challenges and future directions in this field are also provided.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with donor-acceptor (D-A) units are credible photocatalysts for their per-designed structure, inherent porosity, large surface area, splendid stability and so forth. Developing COFs with an excellent photocatalytic efficiency for hydrogen evolution is of a great significance in alleviating the energy crisis. Herein, a D-A type imine-linked crystalline Zn-Por-TT COF was fabricated successfully via the co-polymerization of electron-deficient Zinc (II) 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(para-aminophenyl) porphyrin (Zn-TAPP), and electron-rich thieno[3,2-b]thiophene-2,5-dicarbaldehyde (TT). Profiting from the D-A complex structure, the obtained Zn-Por-TT COF showcases an excellent photocatalytic activity with a hydrogen evolution rate of 8200 μmol/g/h, while the Zn-TAPP monomer presents practically no capacity for the generation of hydrogen under identical conditions. In addition, the counterparts Por-TT COF and COF-366-Zn were employed to illustrate the enhancement of the photocatalytic performance by metal catalytic sites and D-A structures. In addition, the counterparts Por-TT COF and COF-366-Zn were employed to illustrate the enhancement of metal catalytic sites and D-A structures for the photocatalytic performance.

Abstract
The increasing energy demand and environmental issues caused by the over-exploitation of fossil fuels render the need for renewable, clean, and environmentally benign energy sources unquestionably urgent. The zero-emission energy carrier, H2 is an ideal alternative to carbon-based fuels especially when it is generated photocatalytically from water. Additionally, the photocatalytic conversion of CO2 into chemical fuels can reduce the CO2 emissions and have a positive environmental and economic impact. Inspired by natural photosynthesis, plenty of artificial photocatalytic schemes based on porphyrinoids have been investigated. This review covers the recent advances in photocatalytic H2 production and CO2 reduction systems containing porphyrin or phthalocyanine derivatives. The unique properties of porphyrinoids enable their utilization both as chromophores and as catalysts. The homogeneous photocatalytic systems are initially described, presenting the various approaches for the improvement of photosensitizing activity and the enhancement of catalytic performance at the molecular level. On the other hand, for the development of the heterogeneous systems, numerous methods were employed such as self-assembled supramolecular porphyrinoid nanostructures, construction of organic frameworks, combination with 2D materials and adsorption onto semiconductors. The dye sensitization on semiconductors opened the way for molecular-based dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical cells (DSPECs) devices based on porphyrins and phthalocyanines. The research in photocatalytic systems as discussed herein remains challenging since there are still many limitations making them unfeasible to be used at a large scale application before finding a large-scale application.

Abstract
Currently, organic semiconductors (OSs) are widely used as active components in practical devices related to energy storage and conversion, optoelectronics, catalysis, and biological sensors, etc. To satisfy the actual requirements of different types of devices, chemical structure design and self-assembly process control have been synergistically performed. The morphology and other basic properties of multiscale OS components are governed on a broad scale from nanometers to macroscopic micrometers. Herein, the up-to-date design strategies for fabricating multiscale OSs are comprehensively reviewed. Related representative works are introduced, applications in practical devices are discussed, and future research directions are presented. Design strategies combining the advances in organic synthetic chemistry and supramolecular assembly technology perform an integral role in the development of a new generation of multiscale OSs.

Abstract
Abstract:
Conjugated materials have emerged as a new class of photocatalysts for solar fuel generation, thus allowing for the Sun’s energy to be converted into a storable fuel that can be used without further emissions at the point of use. Many different building blocks have been used to make conjugated materials that act as photocatalysts allowing for efficient light absorption and tuing of photophysical properties. The porphyrin moiety is a very interesting building block for photocatalysts as the large π-conjugated system allows efficient light absorption. Metalation of porphyrins allows for further tuning of the materials’ properties, thus further expanding the property space that these materials can cover. This allows to design and better control over the properties of the materials, which is discussed in this review together with the state-of-the-art in porphyrin photocatalysts and hybrid systems.

Abstract
There has been rapid progress on the chemistry of supramolecular scaffolds that harness sunlight for aqueous photocatalytic production of hydrogen. However, great efforts are still needed to develop similar photosynthetic systems for the great challenge of CO2 reduction especially if they avoid the use of nonabundant metals. This work investigates the synthesis of supramolecular polymers capable of sensitizing catalysts that require more negative potentials than proton reduction. The monomers are chromophore amphiphiles based on a diareno-fused ullazine core that undergo supramolecular polymerization in water to create entangled nanoscale fibers. Under 450 nm visible light these fibers sensitize a dinuclear cobalt catalyst for CO2 photoreduction to generate carbon monoxide and methane using a sacrificial electron donor. The supramolecular photocatalytic system can generate amounts of CH4 comparable to those obtained with a precious metal-based [Ru(phen)3](PF6)2 sensitizer and, in contrast to Ru-based catalysts, retains photocatalytic activity in all aqueous media over 6 days. The present study demonstrates the potential of tailored supramolecular polymers as renewable energy and sustainability materials.

Abstract
The preparation of self-assembled porphyrins with orderly stacked nanostructures for emulating natural photosynthesis has stimulated extensive efforts to optimize the energy conversion efficiency. However, the elucidation of how orderly stacked structures promote photocatalysis at the molecular level remains a great challenge. Here, unique porphyrin nanoleaves with designed and ordered structure are synthesized and show a hydrogen evolution rate higher than that of commercial powder. Photodeposition of cocatalysts and Kelvin probe force microscopy measurement suggest selective aggregation of photogenerated electrons and holes at different active sites. Combined with theoretical calculations, we find that the orderly packing changes molecular symmetry and induces a molecular dipole, which increases linearly along the π-π stacking direction and forms a strong built-in electric field. The built-in electric field drives photogenerated electrons and holes for the unique crossed transportation along different directions. These findings reveal how orderly stacked structures promote photocatalysis and provide a novel approach for highly efficient water splitting.

Abstract
Adding ferromagnetism into semiconductors attracts much attentions due to its potential usage of magnetic spins in novel devices, such as spin field-effect transistors. However, it remains challenging to stabilize their ferromagnetism above room temperature. Here we introduce an atomic chemical-solution strategy to grow wafer-size NiO thin films with controllable thickness down to sub-nanometer scale (0.92 nm) for the first time. Surface lattice defects break the magnetic symmetry of NiO and produce surface ferromagnetic behaviors. Our sub-nanometric NiO thin film exhibits the highest reported room-temperature ferromagnetic behavior with a saturation magnetization of 157 emu/cc and coercivity of 418 Oe. Attributed to wafer size, the easily-transferred NiO thin film is further verified in a magnetoresistance device. Our work provides a sub-nanometric platform to produce wafer-size ferromagnetic NiO thin films as atomic layer magnetic units in future transparent magnetoelectric devices.

Abstract
A Good's buffer ionic liquid (GB-IL) composed of quaternary ammonium cations and Good's buffer anions is first introduced into a microemulsion system as a self-buffering and biocompatible electrolyte. The effects of the constituting ions of a GB-IL and their concentrations on the phase behavior of the anionic surfactant SDBS stabilized n-octane-H2O microemulsion system were studied for the first time using the ε-β fish-like phase diagram method. The result indicates that the phase behavior of the above microemulsion system is greatly affected by GB-IL cations with a longer alkyl chain on the cation being more favorable for phase inversion. Compared with NaCl, a GB-IL of the same concentration is more efficient for achieving phase inversion, due to the dual role of an electrolyte and a co-alcohol. In addition to the phase behavior, the stability of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) solubilized in an SDBS stabilized bicontinuous microemulsion is also affected by a GB-IL. It is found that the variation of the cationic alkyl chain has a negligible effect on the microemulsion microstructure, but has a significant influence on the stability of the solubilized HRP. At a fixed concentration of the GB-IL, the quaternary ammonium cation with a longer alkyl chain is better for the stabilization of the HRP activity. For a given GB-IL, a higher level of the GB-IL results in a better HRP stability. More importantly, the GB-IL-buffered microemulsion, at the same level of the buffering salt, is more advantageous than the phosphate-buffered one for the stabilization of the HRP activity. This advantage is more pronounced for higher concentrations of the GB-IL. This difference in the HRP stability, caused by the buffering salts, should be ascribed to the microemulsion microstructure effect as well as the Hofmeister effect. The present study provides a guideline for the construction of a bicontinuous microemulsion with a simplified composition and stabilizing effect on the solubilized enzyme.

Abstract
Herein, we show that chiral metal nanoparticle superlattices can be produced through coassembly of achiral metal nanoparticles and porphyrin-based organic molecules. This chirality transfer from molecules to nanoparticle superstructures across three orders of magnitude in length scale is enabled by the hetero chain-chain van der Waals interactions. As far as we know, these are the first chiral nanoparticle assemblies based on chirality transfer through weak van der Waals forces. The dimensionality of the nanoparticle superlattices (1D chiral chains, 2D chiral sheets (cones), and 3D chiral particles) can be controlled based on a same synthetic chiral porphyrin molecule. Metalation of these porphyrin molecules with zinc cations results in the switching of molecular packing from J-type to H-type, which thereby produces 1D chiral nanoparticle chains. Functionalization of these zinc porphyrins with oleylamine can induce the assembly of nanoparticles into 2D chiral nanoparticle sheets.

Abstract
The excellent characteristics of porphyrins have inspired widespread interest in electrochemiluminescence (ECL). However, the limited ECL intensity and poor stability of porphyrins in aqueous solution are still severely restricted further biological application. Here, we subtly synthesized a functionalized europium and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis (4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (TCPP) coordination polymer (Eu-PCP) by a one-step solvothermal method. In sharp contrast to the pristine TCPP, Eu-PCP showed a higher and more stable ECL red-light emission (673 nm) at low potential (-1.1 V, vs Ag/AgCl), which was 7.7-fold higher ECL intensity and 4.6-fold efficiency. In view of the crucial role of mucin 1 (MUC1) in tumor overexpression, it was selected as the target molecule. Combined with exonuclease III (Exo III)-assisted recycling amplification strategy, a ternary ECL biosensor was constructed for the MUC1 detection based on Eu-PCP as a satisfied ECL emitter, gold nanoparticles capped CeO2 (CeO2@Au) as the coreactant accelerator and peroxydisulfate as coreactant. Meanwhile, gold nanoparticles capped MnO2 (MnO2@Au) was used as the quenching probe to achieve a highly sensitive detection of MUC1. The proposed biosensor exhibited a wide linear range from 1 fg mL-1 to 10 ng mL-1 with a low limit of detection (0.32 fg mL-1). By changing the corresponding target recognition DNA, this strategy could be expanded to detect other biomarkers.

Abstract
Porphyrin nanostructures are widely used in the field of visible light catalysis due to their superior light absorption properties and good controllability in size, shape and function. In this paper, the development of various morphologies in three types of porphyrins with three different phenyl substituents (designated as H2TTP, H2TPP and H2TCPP, respectively) is demonstrated. The formation mechanism proposed was based on the evolution of morphology as functions of molecular structure and solvent mixture. These nano/micro assemblies are well characterized by SEM, IR, UV-vis, X-ray diffraction and photoelectric conversion. The photocatalytic oxidation reactions under visible light irradiation of 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) in water is utilized to evaluate the photoactivity of the as-prepared porphyrin assemblies. The photocatalytic results indicate that the obtained porphyrin assemblies exhibit enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activity. In addition, the photocatalyst is easy to separate and recover, and has good stability. The possible photocatalytic degradation mechanism of DHN by the porphyrins nanopolyhedron photocatalyst was also proposed.

Abstract
Biomimetic construction of artificial photosystem capable of converting light energy to chemical energy is a promising strategy in solving the increasing serious energy and environmental problems. Herein, we present a new strategy to construct light-harvesting antenna via hierarchical co-assembly of short-peptide and porphyrin and subsequent self-metallization process. The hierarchically organized antenna exhibits both excellent photocatalytic performance and remarkable sustainability under strong light irradiation (35000 lx) and extraordinary sensitivity to weak light (700 lx). In such cases, light energy can be converted into chemical energy and stored in the energy-storage molecules (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, NADH) even under weak light irradiation. This provides a promising step towards an artificial photosystem that can utilize weak light. Moreover, the structures and properties of the antenna are dependent on the competition of short-peptide self-assembling and co-assembling with porphyrin molecules and can be regulated by their molar ratio. This provides new insights into the design and construction of light-harvesting antennas with integrated functionality via precise control of pigments aggregation and coupling of different functional units.

Abstract
The development of photocatalysts is an essential task for clean energy generation and establishing a sustainable society. This paper describes the aggregation-induced photocatalytic activity (AI-PCA) of amphiphilic rhodamines and photocatalytic functions of the supramolecular assemblies. The supramolecular assemblies consisting of amphiphilic rhodamines with octadecyl alkyl chains exhibited significant photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation in water, while the corresponding monomeric rhodamines did not exhibit photocatalytic activity. The studies on the photocatalytic mechanism by spectroscopic and microscopic analyses clearly demonstrated the AI-PCA of the rhodamines. Moreover, the supramolecular assemblies of the rhodamines exhibited excellent photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rates (up to 5.9 mmol g-1 h-1).

Abstract
Self-assembly is a bioinspired strategy to craft materials for renewable and clean energy technologies. In plants, the alignment and assembly of the light-harvesting protein machinery in the green leaf optimize the ability to efficiently convert light from the sun to form chemical bonds. In artificial systems, strategies based on self-assembly using noncovalent interactions offer the possibility to mimic this functional correlation among molecules to optimize photocatalysis, photovoltaics, and energy storage. One of the long-term objectives of the field described here as supramolecular energy materials is to learn how to design soft materials containing light-harvesting assemblies and catalysts to generate fuels and useful chemicals. Supramolecular energy materials also hold great potential in the design of systems for photovoltaics in which intermolecular interactions in self-assembled structures, for example, in electron donor and acceptor phases, maximize charge transport and avoid exciton recombination. Possible pathways to integrate organic and inorganic structures by templating strategies and electrodeposition to create materials relevant to energy challenges including photoconductors and supercapacitors are also described. The final topic discussed is the synthesis of hybrid perovskites in which organic molecules are used to modify both structure and functions, which may include chemical stability, photovoltaics, and light emission.

[PMID: 32075049 PMCID: PMC7075202 DOI: 10.3390/nano10020326] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2019] [Revised: 02/02/2020] [Accepted: 02/08/2020] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
Porphin-based carbon dots (denoted as PCDs) are prepared through a one-step hydrothermal method by using meso-tetra (4-carboxyphenyl) porphin (TCPP), citric acid, and ethanediamine as precursor. PCDs give rise to the optimal photoluminescence at λex/λem = 375/645 nm, exhibit an excitation-independent property, excellent water solubility, and good biocompatibility, which provide red emission and avoid the autofluorescence as an efficient fluorescent imaging probe. On the other hand, when Eu3+ is added into PCDs, the carboxylate groups located on the surface of PCDs exhibit high affinity to Eu3+, resulting in the fluorescence of PCDs turning off via static quenching. In the presence of phosphate, owing to the strong coordination with Eu3+, the fluorescence of PCDs turns on. Based on this performance, a novel "turn off-on" phosphate sensing system is developed. The detection limit of this sensing system can attain 3.59 × 10-3 μmol L-1. This system has been utilized for the detection of phosphate in real samples successfully, which further demonstrates potential applications in biological diagnostic and environmental analysis.

Abstract
Metal-free porphyrin with good planarity is beneficial to π-π stack interactions, which promotes electron coupling and the separation and transfer of photogenerated carriers. It is necessary to develop metal-free porphyrin-based photocatalysts and exploit the photocatalytic mechanism. Herein, metal-free porphyrin (5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin, TCPP) was self-assembled through an acid-based neutralization reaction and mixing dual-solvents under surfactants to form different aggregates. Morphology structures, optical and optoelectronic properties of the TCPP aggregates were characterized in detail. TCPP self-assemblies showed higher photocatalytic activities for the degradation of phenol under visible light than untreated TCPP powders, and the aggregates of nanorods formed through the acid-based neutralization reaction in the presence of hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) possessed 2.6 times more activity than the nanofiber aggregates formed through mixing dual-solvents. It was proved that self-assembly methods are crucial for controlling the aggregation of porphyrins to form different aggregations, which have a profound impact on the photocatalytic activity.

Abstract
Nanoparticle (NP) high pressure behavior has been extensively studied over the years. In this review, we summarize recent progress on the studies of pressure induced NP phase behavior, property, and applications. This review starts with a brief overview of high pressure characterization techniques, coupled with synchrotron X-ray scattering, Raman, fluorescence, and absorption. Then, we survey the pressure induced phase transition of NP atomic crystal structure including size dependent phase transition, amorphization, and threshold pressures using several typical NP material systems as examples. Next, we discuss the pressure induced phase transition of NP mesoscale structures including topics on pressure induced interparticle separation distance, NP coupling, and NP coalescence. Pressure induced new properties and applications in different NP systems are highlighted. Finally, outlooks with future directions are discussed.
