Abstract
Peroxidase-mimetic materials are intensively applied to establish multienzyme systems because of their attractive merits. However, almost all of the nanozymes explored exhibit catalytic capacity only under acidic conditions. The pH mismatch between peroxidase mimics in acidic environments and bioenzymes under neutral conditions significantly restricts the development of enzyme-nanozyme catalytic systems especially for biochemical sensing. To solve this problem, here amorphous Fe-containing phosphotungstates (Fe-PTs) featuring high peroxidase activity at neutral pH were explored to fabricate portable multienzyme biosensors for pesticide detection. The strong attraction of negatively charged Fe-PTs to positively charged substrates as well as the accelerated regeneration of Fe2+ by the Fe/W bimetallic redox couples was demonstrated to play important roles in endowing the material with peroxidase-like activity in physiological environments. Consequently, integrating the developed Fe-PTs with acetylcholinesterase and choline oxidase led to an enzyme-nanozyme tandem platform with good catalytic efficiency at neutral pH for organophosphorus pesticide response. Furthermore, they were immobilized onto common medical swabs to fabricate portable sensors for paraoxon detection conveniently based on smartphone sensing, showing excellent sensitivity, good anti-interference capacity, and low detection limit (0.28 ng/mL). Our contribution expands the horizon of acquiring peroxidase activity at neutral pH, and it will also open avenues to construct portable and effective biosensors for pesticides and other analytes.

Abstract
Defect engineering has received extensive attention as an effective method to tune the gas sensing properties of semiconductor materials. Here, defective WO3 (D-WO3) nanosheets were obtained by a simple hydrogenation process with a detection limit as low as 5 ppb for dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS) and a response of 2.3 times that of the initial WO3 nanosheets to 100 ppb DMTS. Importantly, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy confirmed the partial loss of oxygen atoms in D-WO3 nanosheets, and density functional theory calculations found that the W sites near the oxygen defect showed higher adsorption energy for DMTS and transferred more electrons during the gas interaction, indicating that the active W site caused by oxygen atom loss can effectively enhance the reactivity of two-dimensional WO3 nanosheets. Different from the traditional oxygen defect model, this work reveals the positive effect of active metal sites on gas sensing for the first time, which is expected to provide an effective reference for the sensing application of defect engineering in metal oxides.

Abstract
Due to the unique spiral geometry, different functional helical fibers are fabricated to perform vital tasks, including cargo transportation, medical treatment, cell manipulation, and so on. Although microfluidic techniques are widely used to fabricate helical fibers, the problems of channel blockage and spinning instability have not been well solved, which limits the mass preparation and practical application of spiral microfibers. In addition, the spinning mechanism is simply limited to liquid rope coiling, which has little impact on the design of microfluidic devices. Here, new types of microfluidic devices, which were easy to make and exhibited excellent spiral spinning performance, were designed. It was found that adding a sleeve layer outside the inner core needle in a coaxial microfluidic device could effectively promote the stable formation of helical microfibers. This novel microchannel could fabricate helical microfibers of more than 100 m in length continuously at one time with almost no blockage or deformation, and the key parameters of the fibers could be precisely adjusted. Combined with micro-particle image velocimetry (micro-PIV) measurements, it was confirmed that the improvement in the spinning performances was mainly attributed to the emergence of a focusing flow in the presence of the sleeve layer. After loading magnetic nanoparticles, the helical microfibers exhibited excellent motion manipulation capabilities, which showed great potential for drug delivery, cargo transportation, clogging removal, etc. This new design not only realized the high-throughput fabrication of helical microfibers but also provided deeper insights into the underlying mechanisms of spiral generation and new ideas for the design of microfluidic devices.

Abstract
Chitosan crosslinked with metal-organic framework (MOF-199)@aminated graphene oxide aerogel (MOF-199@AFGO/CS) were prepared to adsorb formaldehyde and methyl orange. The prepared MOF-199@AFGO/CS aerogel was well characterized via SEM, EDX, FT-IR, XRD and XPS to reveal the microstructure and composition. Besides, the mechanical property and the stability of MOF-199@AFGO/CS aerogel were investigated. The results showed that MOF-199@AFGO/CS aerogel had good stability in water, compression resilience and thermostability. The study on the ability to adsorb formaldehyde gas and methyl orange showed that the adsorption capacity of MOF-199@AFGO/CS aerogel was related to the pore size and the surface functional groups of MOF-199@AFGO/CS aerogel. When the pore size is moderate, as the amino group and MOF-199 on the aerogel increased, the adsorption capacity of formaldehyde gas (197.89 mg/g) and methyl orange (412 mg/g) can reach the maximum. Furthermore, the adsorption process at equilibrium followed the Freundlich isotherm model. The kinetic behavior was well fitted by the pseudo-second-order model, indicating chemisorption as the rate-determining step. This work can provide a reliable basis for the adsorbent to remove pollutants in different forms at the same time, and has potential application in simultaneously adsorbing liquid pollutants and gas pollutants.

Abstract
Here, Rare-earth metal oxysulfide Ce2O2S nanostructures with tunable morphology are successfully grown on carbon cloth (CC) for supercapacitors (SCs) via a facile hydrothermal process followed by pyrolysis treatment for the first time. The feeding amount of sulfur source thioacetamide (TAA) plays an important role in the formation of Ce2O2S nanostructures with tunable morphology. Adjusting TAA feeding amount from 0.5 to 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 g, the morphology of the resulted Ce2O2S nanostructure can change from pine bark-like agglomerated nanoparticles to fan-shaped nanosheets with edged branches, cuttlefish-like nanostructure with long terminal whiskers and polygon prism with spikes. Among them, Ce2O2S/CC-1.0 g TAA nanostructure with largest specific surface area and abundant mesopores exhibits a high specific capacitance of 670, 321.5 or 588.3 mF cm-2 at 1 mA cm-2 in an acid, neutral or alkaline electrolyte, respectively. Moreover, Ce2O2S/CC-1.0 g TAA electrode delivers excellent cycling stability with high capacitance retention of 93% after 5000 cycles in alkaline electrolyte. Our findings present a new strategy to fabricate rare-earth metal oxysulfide Ce2O2S nanostructures with controllable morphology and systematically reveal their electrochemical performance for SCs, moreover, provide new perspectives for boosting the preparation and application of metal oxysulfides in energy storage.

Abstract
With the accelerating update of advanced electronic gadgets, a great deal of attention is being paid today to the function integration and intelligent design of electronic devices. Herein, a novel kind of multitasking 3D oxygen-deficient WO3- x ∙ 2H2 O/Ag/ceramic microscaffolds, possessing simultaneous giant energy density, ultrahigh mechanical strength, and reversible electrochromic performance is proposed, and fabricated by a 3D printing technique.

As a result, this 3D-printed multitasking microscaffolds simultaneously perform structure-designable, electrochromic, compression resistant, and energy storage functions, behaving with true 3D structure with tailorable curvatures, excellent compressive strength (61.9 MPa), large color variations (>145% in b* value), good aesthetic visual quality as well as exciting electrochemical performances for energy storage including ultrahigh areal capacitance (10.05 F cm-2 at 5 mA cm-2 ), record-high energy density (0.60 mWh cm-2 ), and superior long-term cycling stability (88.6% capacity retention after 10 000 cycles). This work opens up the possibility for high-performance multi-functional coupling structural materials and integrated systems.
