Abstract
Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) are emerging gas-sensing materials and have attracted considerable attention in gas sensors due to their unique bandgap structure and tunable optoelectronic properties. The past decade has witnessed significant developments in the gas-sensing field; however, their intrinsic structural instability and ambiguous gas-sensing mechanisms hamper their practical applications. Herein, we summarize the recent advances in MHP-based gas sensors. The physicochemical properties of MHPs are discussed at first. The structure design, including dimension design and engineering design, is overviewed as well as their fabrication methods, and we put forward our insights into the gas-sensing mechanism of MHPs. It is believed that enhanced understanding of gas-sensing mechanisms of MHPs are helpful for their application as gas-sensing materials, and structure design can enhance their stability, sensing sensitivity, and selectivity to target gases as gas sensors. Subsequently, the latest developments in MHP-based gas sensors are summarized according to their different application scenarios. Finally, we conclude with the current status and challenges in this field and propose future perspectives.

Abstract
Paper-integrated configuration with miniaturized functionality represents one of the future main green electronics. In this study, a paper-based respiration sensor was prepared using a multiwalled carbon nanotube-templated nickel porphyrin covalent organic framework (MWCNTs@COFNiP-Ph) as an electrical identification component and pencil-drawn graphite electric circuits as interdigitated electrodes (IDEs). The MWCNTs@COFNiP-Ph not only inherited the high gas sensing performance of porphyrin and the aperture induction effect of COFs but also overcame the shielding effect between phases through the MWCNT template. Furthermore, it possessed highly exposed M-N4 metallic active sites and unique periodic porosity, thereby effectively addressing the key technical issue of room-temperature sensing for the respiration sensor. Meanwhile, the introduction of a pencil-drawing approach on common printing papers facilitates the inexpensive and simple manufacturing of the as-fabricated graphite IDE. Based on the above advantages, the MWCNTs@COFNiP-Ph respiration sensor had the characteristics of wide detection range (1-500 ppm), low detection limit (30 ppb), acceptable flexibility for toluene, and rapid response/recovery time (32 s/116 s). These advancements facilitated the integration of the respiration sensor into surgical masks and clothes with maximum functionality at a minimized size and weight. Moreover, the primary internal mechanism of COFNiP-Ph for this efficient toluene detection was investigated through in situ FTIR spectra, thereby directly elucidating that the chemisorption interaction of oxygen modulated the depletion layers, resulting in alterations in sensor resistance upon exposure to the target gas. The encouraging results revealed the feasibility of employing a paper-sensing system as a wearable platform in green electronics.

Abstract
Creating a microenvironment for enhanced peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation is vital in advanced oxidation processes. The objective of this study was to fabricate nanoshells composed of titanium dioxide embedded with cobalt titanate nanoparticles of perovskite to act as nanoreactors for effectively initiating PMS and degrading contaminants. The unique porous structure and confined space of the nanoreactor facilitated reactant absorption and mass transfer to the active sites, resulting in exceptional catalytic performance for pollutant elimination. Experimental findings revealed close to 100% decomposition efficiency of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) within an hour utilizing the nanoreactors over a wide pH range. The TiO2/CoTiO3 hollow nanoshells catalysts also displayed adaptability in disintegrating organic dyes and antibiotics. The radicals SO4•-, •OH, and non-radicals 1O2 were determined to be accountable for eliminating pollutants, as supported by trapping experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance spectra. The catalyst was confirmed as an electron donor and PMS as an electron acceptor through electrochemical tests and density functional theory calculations. This study underscores the potential of incorporating stable perovskite catalysts in hollow nanoreactors to enhance wastewater treatment.

Abstract
High-performance perovskite materials with excellent physical, electronic, and optical properties play a significant role in artificial neuromorphic devices. However, the development of perovskites in microelectronics is inevitably hindered by their intrinsic non-ideal properties, such as high defect density, environmental sensitivity, and toxicity. By leveraging materials engineering, integrating various materials with perovskites to leverage their mutual strengths presents great potential to enhance ion migration, energy level alignment, photoresponsivity, and surface passivation, thereby advancing optoelectronic and neuromorphic device development. This review initially provides an overview of perovskite materials across different dimensions, highlighting their physical properties and detailing their applications and metrics in two- and three-terminal devices. Subsequently, we comprehensively summarize the application of perovskites in combination with other materials, including organics, nanomaterials, oxides, ferroelectrics, and crystalline porous materials (CPMs), to develop advanced devices such as memristors, transistors, photodetectors, sensors, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and artificial neuromorphic systems. Lastly, we outline the challenges and future research directions in synthesizing perovskite composites for neuromorphic devices. Through the review and analysis, we aim to broaden the utilization of perovskites and their composites in neuromorphic research, offering new insights and approaches for grasping the intricate physical working mechanisms and functionalities of perovskites.

Abstract
Perovskites are bringing revolutionization in a various fields due to their exceptional properties and crystalline structure. Most specifically, halide perovskites (HPs), lead-free halide perovskites (LFHPs), and halide perovskite quantum dots (HPs QDs) are becoming hotspots due to their unique optoelectronic properties, low cost, and simple processing. HPs QDs, in particular, have excellent photovoltaic and optoelectronic applications because of their tunable emission, high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY), effective charge separation, and low cost. However, practical applications of the HPs QDs family have some limitations such as degradation, instability, and deep trap states within the bandgap, structural inflexibility, scalability, inconsistent reproducibility, and environmental concerns, which can be covered by encapsulating HPs QDs into porous materials like metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) or covalent-organic frameworks (COFs) that offer protection, prevention of aggregation, tunable optical properties, flexibility in structure, enhanced biocompatibility, improved stability under harsh conditions, consistency in production quality, and efficient charge separation. These advantages of MOFs-COFs help HPs QDs harness their full potential for various applications. This review mainly consists of three parts. The first portion discusses the perovskites, halide perovskites, lead-free perovskites, and halide perovskite quantum dots. In the second portion, we explore MOFs and COFs. In the third portion, particular emphasis is given to a thorough evaluation of the development of HPs QDs@MOFs-COFs based materials for comprehensive investigations for next-generation materials intended for diverse technological applications, such as CO2 conversion, pollutant degradation, hydrogen generation, batteries, gas sensing, and solar cells. Finally, this review will open a new gateway for the synthesis of perovskite-based quantum dots.

Molecularly specific detection towards trace nitrogen dioxide by utilizing Schottky-junction-based Gas Sensor. Nat Commun 2024; 15:5991.

Abstract
Trace NO2 detection is essential for the production and life, where the sensing strategy is appropriate for rapid detection but lacks molecular specificity. This investigation proposes a sensing mechanism dominated by surface-scattering to achieve the molecularly-specific detection. Two-dimensional Bi2O2Se is firstly fabricated into a Schottky-junction-based gas-sensor. Applied with an alternating excitation, the sensor simultaneously outputs multiple response signals (i.e., resistance, reactance, and the impedance angle). Their response times are shorter than 200 s at room temperature. In NO2 sensing, these responses present the detection limit in ppt range and the sensitivity is up to 16.8 %·ppb-1. This NO2 sensitivity presents orders of magnitude higher than those of the common gases within the exhaled breath. The impedance angle is involved in the principle component analysis together with the other two sensing signals. Twelve kinds of typical gases containing NO2 are acquired with molecular characteristics. The change in dipole moment of the target molecule adsorbed is demonstrated to correlate with the impedance angle via surface scattering. The proposed mechanism is confirmed to output ultra-sensitive sensing responses with the molecular characteristic.

Abstract
As trimethylamine (TMA) is widely used in agriculture and industry, inhalation of TMA can cause very serious negative effects on human health. However, most of the current gas sensors for detecting TMA are commonly performed at high temperatures and cannot meet market needs. Inspired by this, we prepared imine covalent organic frameworks (TB-COF) synthesized from two monomers, 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenyl)benzene (TAPB) and 1,3,5-benzotricarboxaldehyde (BTCA), using acetic acid as a catalyst at room temperature. Based on this, three sensors were prepared for gas sensitivity testing, namely, TA, BT, and TB-COF sensors. The three sensors were tested for 15 different gases at room temperature. From the whole gas sensitivity data, the TB-COF sensor made by compositing TA and BT has a higher sensitivity (6845.9%) to TMA at 500 ppm, which is 6.1 and 5.4 times higher than the response of TA and BT sensors, respectively. The TB-COF sensor adsorbs and desorbs TMA in a controlled 23 s cycle with a low detection limit of 28.6 ppb. This result indicates that TB-COF prepared at room temperature can be used as a gas-sensitive sensing material for real-time monitoring of TMA. The gas sensing results demonstrate the great potential of COFs for sensor development and application and provide ideas for further development of COFs-based gas sensors.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) mesoporous transition metal oxides are highly desired in various applications, but their fast and low-cost synthesis remains a great challenge. Herein, a Maillard reaction inspired microexplosion approach is applied to rapidly synthesize ultrathin 2D mesoporous tin oxide (mSnO2). During the microexplosion between granular ammonia nitrate with melanoidin at high temperature, the organic species can be carbonized and expanded rapidly due to the instantaneous release of gases, thus producing ultrathin carbonaceous templates with rich functional groups to effectively anchor SnO2 nanoparticles on the surface. The subsequent removal of carbonaceous templates via calcination in air results in the formation of 2D mSnO2 due to the confinement effect of the templates. Pd nanoparticles are controllably deposited on the surface of 2D mSnO2 via in situ reduction, forming ultrathin 2D Pd/mSnO2 nanocomposites with thicknesses of 6-8 nm. Owing to the unique 2D mesoporous structure with rich oxygen defects and highly exposed metal-metal oxide interfaces, 2D Pd/mSnO2 exhibits excellent sensing performance toward acetone with high sensitivity, a short response time, and good selectivity under low working temperature (100 °C). This fast and convenient microexplosion synthesis strategy opens up the possibility of constructing 2D porous functional materials for various applications including high-performance gas sensors.

Abstract
Redox-active tetrathiafulvalene (TTF)-based covalent organic frameworks (COFs) exhibit distinctive electrochemical and photoelectrical properties, but their prevalent two-dimensional (2D) structure with densely packed TTF moieties limits the accessibility of redox center and constrains their potential applications. To overcome this challenge, an 8-connected TTF linker (TTF-8CHO) is designed as a new building block for the construction of three-dimensional (3D) COFs. This approach led to the successful synthesis of a 3D COF with the bcu topology, designated as TTF-8CHO-COF. In comparison to its 2D counterpart employing a 4-connected TTF linker, the 3D COF design enhances access to redox sites, facilitating controlled oxidation by I2 or Au3+ to tune physical properties. When irradiated with a 0.7 W cm-2 808 nm laser, the oxidized 3D COF samples (I X - ${\mathrm{I}}_{\mathrm{X}}^{-}$ @TTF-8CHO-COF and Au NPs@TTF-8CHO-COF) demonstrated rapid temperature increases of 239.3 and 146.1 °C, respectively, which surpassed those of pristine 3D COF (65.6 °C) and the 2D COF counterpart (6.4 °C increment after I2 treatment). Furthermore, the oxidation of the 3D COF heightened its photoelectrical responsiveness under 808 nm laser irradiation. This augmentation in photothermal and photoelectrical response can be attributed to the higher concentration of TTF·+ radicals generated through the oxidation of well-exposed TTF moieties.

Abstract
Gas sensors are crucial in environmental monitoring, industrial safety, and medical diagnostics. Due to the rising demand for precise and reliable gas detection, there is a rising demand for cutting-edge gas sensors that possess exceptional sensitivity, selectivity, and stability. Due to their tunable electrical properties, high-density surface-active sites, and significant surface-to-volume ratio, nanomaterials have been extensively investigated in this regard. The traditional gas sensors utilize homogeneous material for sensing where the adsorbed surface oxygen species play a vital role in their sensing activity. However, their performance for selective gas sensing is still unsatisfactory because the employed high temperature leads to the poor stability. The heterostructures nanomaterials can easily tune sensing performance and their different energy band structures, work functions, charge carrier concentration and polarity, and interfacial band alignments can be precisely designed for high-performance selective gas sensing at low temperature. In this review article, we discuss in detail the fundamentals of semiconductor gas sensing along with their mechanisms. Further, we highlight the existed challenges in semiconductor gas sensing. In addition, we review the recent advancements in semiconductor gas sensor design for applications from different perspective. Finally, the conclusion and future perspectives for improvement of the gas sensing performance are discussed.

Abstract
In all their applications, gas sensors should satisfy several requirements, including low cost, reduced energy consumption, fast response/recovery, high sensitivity, and reliability in a broad humidity range. Unfortunately, the fast response/recovery and sensing reliability under high humidity conditions are often still missing, especially those working at room temperature. In this study, a humidity-resistant gas sensor with an ultrafast response/recovery rate was designed by integrating a defect-rich semiconducting sensing interface and a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) with controllable wettability. As a proof-of-concept application, ammonia (NH3), one of the atmospheric and indoor pollutants, was selected as the target gas. The decoration of interconnected defective CeO2 nanowires on spaced TiO2 nanotube arrays (NTAs) provided superior NH3 sensing performances. Moreover, we showed that manipulating the functional end group of SAMs is an efficient and simple method to adjust the wettability, by which 86% sensitivity retention with an ultrafast response (within 5 s) and a low limit of detection (45 ppb) were achieved even at 75% relative humidity and room temperature. This work provides a new route toward the comprehensive design and application of metal oxide semiconductors for trace gas monitoring under harsh conditions, such as those of agricultural, environmental, and industrial fields.

Abstract
Efficient artificial photosynthesis of disulfide bonds holds promises to facilitate reverse decoding of genetic codes and deciphering the secrets of protein multilevel folding, as well as the development of life science and advanced functional materials. However, the incumbent synthesis strategies encounter separation challenges arising from leaving groups in the ─S─S─ coupling reaction. In this study, according to the reaction mechanism of free-radical-triggered ─S─S─ coupling, light-driven heterojunction functional photocatalysts are tailored and constructed, enabling them to efficiently generate free radicals and trigger the coupling reaction. Specifically, perovskites and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are screened out as target materials due to their superior light-harvesting and photoelectronic properties, as well as flexible and tunable band structure. The in situ assembled Z-scheme heterojunction MAPB-M-COF (MAPbBr3 = MAPB, MA+ = CH3 NH2 + ) demonstrates a perfect trade-off between quantum efficiency and redox chemical potential via band engineering management. The MAPB-M-COF achieves a 100% ─S─S─ coupling yield with a record photoquantum efficiency of 11.50% and outstanding cycling stability, rivaling all the incumbent similar reaction systems. It highlights the effectiveness and superiority of application-oriented band engineering management in designing efficient multifunctional photocatalysts. This study demonstrates a concept-to-proof research methodology for the development of various integrated heterojunction semiconductors for light-driven chemical reaction and energy conversion.
