Talanta 2024; 279:126629. [PMID: 39106649 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126629] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2024] [Revised: 07/17/2024] [Accepted: 07/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/09/2024]
Abstract
Considering the excellent properties such as deep tissue penetration, high signal-to-noise ratio, and in-situ recharge and reactivation, near-infrared luminescence long afterglow nanoparticles show considerable promise for biological application, especially in multifunctional imaging, targeting, and synergistic therapeutic. In this paper, Zn3Ga4GeO11: 0.1 % Cr3+, 1 % Yb3+, 0.1 % Tm3+@Ag-FA (ZGGO@Ag-FA, ZGA-FA) nanoparticles were synthesized by in-situ growth of Ag nanoparticles on the surface of long afterglow nanoparticles, and further modified with folic acid. Through precise adjustments, the luminescent properties of ZnGa2O4 were enhanced and notably boosted the photothermal effect of Ag by leveraging the upconversion emission of ZGGO, with a photothermal conversion efficiency reaching about 59.9 %. The ZGA-FA nanoparticles are ultra-small, measuring less than 50 nm. The modification with folic acid provides the ZGA-FA nanoparticles with excellent tumor-targeting capabilities, demonstrating effective enrichment and retention in tumor tissues, thus enabling long-term imaging and therapy through in vivo re-excitation. Due to its stable photothermal effect, outstanding near-infrared (NIR) afterglow imaging, and red-light charged characteristics, combined with effective tumor-targeting abilities, the therapeutic strategy proposed by this study has significant potential for clinical applications.

Abstract
The dental implant market has experienced explosive growth, owing to the widespread acceptance of implants as the core of oral rehabilitation. Clinically, achieving simultaneous anti-infective effects and rapid osseointegration is a crucial but challenging task for implants. The demand for implants with long-term broad-spectrum antibacterial and immune-osteogenic properties is growing. Existing methods are limited by a lack of safety, efficiency, short-lasting anti-infective ability, and inadequate consideration of the immunomodulatory effects on osteogenesis. Herein, a ZnO/black TiO2-x heterojunction surface structure was designed as a near-infrared (NIR) light-responsive nanofilm immobilized on a titanium (Ti) implant surface. This nanofilm introduces abundant oxygen vacancies and heterojunctions, which enhance the photothermal and photoelectric abilities of Ti implants under NIR illumination by narrowing the band gap and improving interfacial charge transfer. The "photo-thermo-electric" implant exhibits excellent broad-spectrum antibacterial efficacy against three dental pathogenic bacteria (Porphyromonas gingivalis, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and Staphylococcus aureus, >99.4%) by destroying the bacterial membrane and increasing the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species. Additionally, the implant can effectively eliminate mature multispecies biofilms and kill bacteria inside the biofilms under NIR irradiation. Meanwhile, this implant can also induce the pro-regenerative transformation of macrophages and promote osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. Moreover, in vivo results confirmed the superior antibacterial and osteoimmunomodulatory properties of this dental implant. RNA sequencing revealed that the underlying osteogenic mechanisms involve activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and bone development. Overall, this versatile "photo-thermo-electric" platform endows implants with anti-infection and bone integration performance simultaneously, which holds great potential for dental implants.

Enhanced photothermoelectric conversion in self-rolled tellurium photodetector with geometry-induced energy localization. LIGHT, SCIENCE & APPLICATIONS 2024; 13:153. [PMID: 38965220 PMCID: PMC11224300 DOI: 10.1038/s41377-024-01496-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Revised: 05/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/26/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
Photodetection has attracted significant attention for information transmission. While the implementation relies primarily on the photonic detectors, they are predominantly constrained by the intrinsic bandgap of active materials. On the other hand, photothermoelectric (PTE) detectors have garnered substantial research interest for their promising capabilities in broadband detection, owing to the self-driven photovoltages induced by the temperature differences. To get higher performances, it is crucial to localize light and heat energies for efficient conversion. However, there is limited research on the energy conversion in PTE detectors at micro/nano scale. In this study, we have achieved a two-order-of-magnitude enhancement in photovoltage responsivity in the self-rolled tubular tellurium (Te) photodetector with PTE effect. Under illumination, the tubular device demonstrates a maximum photovoltage responsivity of 252.13 V W-1 and a large detectivity of 1.48 × 1011 Jones. We disclose the mechanism of the PTE conversion in the tubular structure with the assistance of theoretical simulation. In addition, the device exhibits excellent performances in wide-angle and polarization-dependent detection. This work presents an approach to remarkably improve the performance of photodetector by concentrating light and corresponding heat generated, and the proposed self-rolled devices thus hold remarkable promises for next-generation on-chip photodetection.

Abstract
Due to the prevalence of electronic devices, intelligent sensors have attracted much interest for the detecting and providing alarms with respect to indoor electrical safety. Nonetheless, how to effectively identify various indoor electrical safety hazards remains a challenge. In this study, we fabricated single-walled carbon nanotube/poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (SWCNT/P3HT) composites with exceptional bifunctional thermoelectric and photoelectric responses. Through synergy of the thermo-/photoelectric effects, the composites yielded greatly enhanced output voltages compared with the use of thermoelectric effects alone. Interestingly, modes of heat transfer can be effectively distinguished using the nominal Seebeck coefficients. Based on the remarkable output voltages and deviations in the nominal Seebeck coefficients, we developed indoor intelligent sensors capable of effectively identifying and monitoring diverse indoor electrical conditions, including electrical overheating, fire, and air conditioning flow. This pioneering investigation proposes a novel avenue for designing intelligent sensors that can recognize heat transfer modes and hence effectively monitor indoor electrical safety hazards.

Abstract
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials with lightweight, high shielding effectiveness, excellent chemical stability, especially minimized secondary electromagnetic pollution, are urgently desired for integrated electronic systems operating in harsh working environments. Here in this study, by systematically engineering and matching the interfacial properties of carbon-based membrane materials, i.e., graphite paper, whisker carbon nanotube paper (WCNT paper), carbon nanotube film (CNT film), bucky paper (BP), and carbon cloth (CC) with three-dimensional (3D) porous carbon nanotube sponge (CNTS), we successfully constructed a series of multifunctional all-carbon EMI shielding materials, which exhibit excellent average shielding effectiveness of over 90 dB with a thickness of about 1 mm and dramatically minimized secondary electromagnetic reflection. Moreover, benefiting from the all-carbon nature and engineered interfaces, our CMC materials also exhibit excellent photothermal and Joule heating performances. These results not only provide guidance for designing advanced multifunctional all-carbon EMI shielding materials but also shed light on the hidden mechanism between interfaces and performances of composite materials.

Abstract
Artificial skin, endowed with the capability to perceive thermal stimuli without physical contact, will bring innovative interactive experiences into smart robotics and augmented reality. The implementation of touchless thermosensation, responding to both hot and cold stimuli, relies on the construction of a flexible infrared detector operating in the long-wavelength infrared range to capture the spontaneous thermal radiation. This imposes rigorous requirements on the photodetection performance and mechanical flexibility of the detector. Herein, a flexible and wearable infrared detector is presented, on basis of the photothermoelectric coupling of the tellurium-based thermoelectric multilayer film and the infrared-absorbing polyimide substrate. By suppressing the optical reflection loss and aligning the destructive interference position with the absorption peak of polyimide, the fabricated thermopile detector exhibits high sensitivity to the thermal radiation over a broad source temperature range from -50 to 110 °C, even capable of resolving 0.05 °C temperature change. Spatially resolved radiation distribution sensing is also achieved by constructing an integrated thermopile array. Furthermore, an established temperature prewarning system is demonstrated for soft robotic gripper, enabling the identification of noxious thermal stimuli in a contactless manner. A feasible strategy is offered here to integrate the infrared detection technique into the sensory modality of electronic skin.

Here, we explore a pulse irradiation synthesis (PIS) to prepare thermoelectric metal chalcogenide (e.g., Bi2Se3, SnSe2, and Bi2Te3) films on multiple polymeric substrates. The self-propagating combustion process enables PIS to achieve a synthesis temperature as low as 150 °C, with an ultrafast reaction completed within one second. Beyond the photothermoelectric (PTE) property, the thermal coupling between polymeric substrates and bismuth selenide films is also examined to enhance the PTE performance, resulting in a responsivity of 71.9 V/W and a response time of less than 50 ms at 1550 nm, surpassing most of its counterparts. This PIS platform offers a promising route for realizing flexible PTE or thermoelectric devices in an energy-, time-, and cost-efficient manner.

Abstract
Thermoelectric therapy has emerged as a promising treatment strategy for oncology, but it is still limited by the low thermoelectric catalytic efficiency at human body temperature and the inevitable tumor thermotolerance. We present a photothermoelectric therapy (PTET) strategy based on triphenylphosphine-functionalized Cu3VS4 nanoparticles (CVS NPs) with high copper ionic mobility at room temperature. Under near-infrared laser irradiation, CVS NPs not only generate hyperthermia to ablate tumor cells but also catalytically yield superoxide radicals and induce endogenous NADH oxidation through the Seebeck effect. Notably, CVS NPs can accumulate inside mitochondria and deplete NADH, reducing ATP synthesis by competitively inhibiting the function of complex I, thereby down-regulating the expression of heat shock proteins to relieve tumor thermotolerance. Both in vitro and in vivo results show notable tumor suppression efficacy, indicating that the concept of integrating PTET and mitochondrial metabolism modulation is highly feasible and offers a translational promise for realizing precise and efficient cancer treatment.

Abstract
Partial cation exchange reactions can be used to rationally design and synthesize heterostructured nanoparticles that are useful targets for applications in photocatalysis, nanophotonics, thermoelectrics, and medicine. Such reactions introduce intraparticle frameworks that define the spatial arrangements of different materials within a heterostructured nanoparticle, as well as the orientations and locations of their interfaces. Here, we show that upon heating to temperatures relevant to their synthesis and applications, the ZnS regions and Cu1.8S/ZnS interfaces of heterostructured ZnS-Cu1.8S nanorods migrate and restructure. We first use partial cation exchange reactions to synthesize a library of seven distinct samples containing various patches, bands, and tips of ZnS embedded within Cu1.8S nanorods. Upon annealing in solution or in air, ex situ TEM analysis shows evidence that the ZnS domains migrate in different ways, depending upon their sizes and locations. Using differential scanning calorimetry, we correlate the threshold temperature for ZnS migration to the superionic transition temperature of Cu1.8S, which facilitates rapid diffusion throughout the nanorods. We then use in situ thermal TEM to study the evolution of individual ZnS-Cu1.8S nanorods upon heating. We find that ZnS domain migration occurs through a ripening process that minimizes small patches with higher-energy interfaces in favor of larger bands and tips having lower-energy interfaces, as well as through restructuring of higher-energy Cu1.8S/ZnS interfaces. Notably, Cu1.8S nanorods containing multiple patches of ZnS thermally transform into ZnS-Cu1.8S heterostructured nanorods having ZnS tips and/or central bands, which provides mechanistic insights into how these commonly observed products form during synthesis.

Abstract
Near-infrared photodetectors (NIR PDs) are devices that convert infrared light signals, which are widely used in military and civilian applications, into electrical signals. However, a common problem associated with PDs is a high dark current. Interestingly, gate voltage can regulate carrier migration in the channels. In this study, a PbS quantum dot heterojunction combined with a carbon nanotube (CNT) field effect transistor (FET) is designed and described. Significantly, this NIR PD achieves field-modulated carrier transport in a CNT transistor, in which the dark current is effectively regulated by the gate voltage. In this PD, an ultra-low dark current of 8 pA is obtained by gate voltage regulation. Moreover, the device shows a fast response speed of 6.5 ms and a high normalized detectivity of 4.75 × 1011 Jones at 0.085 W cm-2 power density and -0.2 V bias voltage. Overall, this work details a novel strategy for the fabrication of a PD with an ultra-low dark current based on a FET.

Abstract
The development of fifth-generation (5G) communications and the Internet of Things (IoT) has created a need for high-performance sensing networks and sensors. Improving the sensitivity and reducing the energy consumption of these sensors can improve the performance of the sensing network and conserve energy. This paper reports a large enhancement of the photovoltaic effect in a 3C-SiC/Si heterostructure and the tunability of the photovoltage under the impact of a temperature gradient, which has the potential to increase the sensitivity and reduce the energy consumption of microsensors. To start with, cubic silicon carbide (3C-SiC) was grown on a silicon wafer, and a micro-3C-SiC/Si heterostructure device was then fabricated using standard photolithography. The result revealed that the sensor could either capture light energy, transform it into electrical energy for self-power purposes, or detect light with intensities of 1.6 and 4 mW/cm2. Under the impact of the temperature gradient induced by conduction heat transfer from a heater, the measured photovoltage was improved. This thermo-phototronic coupling enhanced the photovoltage up to 51% at a temperature gradient of 8.73 K and light intensity of 4 mW/cm2. Additionally, the enhancement can be tuned by controlling the direction of the temperature gradient and the temperature difference. These findings indicate the promise of the temperature gradient in SiC/Si heterostructures for developing high-performance temperature sensors and self-powered photodetectors.

Abstract
Visual adaptation that can autonomously adjust the response to light stimuli is a basic function of artificial visual systems for intelligent bionic robots. To improve efficiency and reduce complexity, artificial visual systems with integrated visual adaptation functions based on a single device should be developed to replace traditional approaches that require complex circuitry and algorithms. Here, we have developed a single two-terminal opto-sensor based on multilayer γ-InSe flakes, which successfully emulated the visual adaptation behaviors with a new working mechanism combining the photo-pyroelectric and photo-thermoelectric effect. The device can operate in self-powered mode and exhibit good human-eye-like adaptation behaviors, which include broadband light-sensing image adaptation (from ultraviolet to near-infrared), near-complete photosensitivity recovery (99.6%), and synergetic visual adaptation, encouraging the advancement of intelligent opto-sensors and machine vision systems.

Abstract
Effective modification of the structure and properties of halide perovskites via the pressure engineering strategy has attracted enormous interest in the past decade. However, sufficient effort and insights regarding the potential properties and applications of the high-pressure amorphous phase are still lacking. Here, the superior and tunable photoelectric properties that occur in the pressure-induced amorphization process of the halide perovskite Cs3 Bi2 I9 are demonstrated. With increasing pressure, the photocurrent with xenon lamp illumination exhibits a rapid increase and achieves an almost five orders of magnitude increment compared to its initial value. Impressively, a broadband photoresponse from 520 to 1650 nm with an optimal responsivity of 6.81 mA W-1 and fast response times of 95/96 ms at 1650 nm is achieved upon successive compression. The high-gain, fast, broadband, and dramatically enhanced photoresponse properties of Cs3 Bi2 I9 are the result of comprehensive photoconductive and photothermoelectric mechanisms, which are associated with enhanced orbital coupling caused by an increase in BiI interactions in the [BiI6 ]3- cluster, even in the amorphous state. These findings provide new insights for further exploring the potential properties and applications of amorphous perovskites.

Abstract
Photothermoelectric (PTE) detectors receive much attention owing to the superiority of self-powered, non-bias input, and friendly ambient environments, facilitating abundant prospective applications in industrial inspection, medical diagnostics, homeland security, and wearable Internet of Things. However, many drawbacks of currently applicable PTE materials, involving unstable material oxidation, an uncontrollable fabrication process, and unscalable manufacturing, hinder the development of industrial productions. Herein, we demonstrate a vertical graphene/polyethylenimine composite PTE detector fabricated with an optimized spray-coating method in compact alignment on various surfaces, achieving a significant photovoltage detectivity and responsivity of 6.05 × 107 cm Hz1/2 W-1 and 2.7 V W-1 response at a 973 K blackbody temperature radiation (2.98 μm peak wavelength). In addition, the long-term stability and resistible concave and convex bending flexibility are presented. Furthermore, a nondestructive testing system is established and verified through high-spatial-resolution and high-penetration illustration. Overall, the spray-coated and flexible PTE graphene/polyethylenimine multi-elements with broadband infrared absorption compatibility and stable energy conversion are promising candidates for future health monitoring and wearable electronics.

Abstract
Polypyrrole@cellulose fibers (PPy@CFs) electrode materials are promising candidates in the energy storage. Various strategies have been pursued to improve their electrochemical performance. However, the poor conductivity, specific capacitance, and cyclic stability still hindered its application. Compared with the previous studies, we selected AQS with electrochemical activity as a dopant to improve these defects. It exhibits a high capacitance of 829.8 F g−1 at a current density of 0.2 A g−1, which is much higher than that of PPy@CFs electrode material (261.9 F g−1). Moreover, the capacitance retention of PPy:AQS/p-PTSA@CFs reaches up to 96.01% after 1000 cycles, indicating superior cyclic stability. Therefore, this work provides an efficient strategy for constructing high-performance electrode materials for energy storage.
