Abstract
In this investigation, transparent photothermal coatings utilizing plasmonic copper chalcogenide (Cu2-xS) nanoparticles were designed and fabricated for the deicing of glass surfaces. Cu2-xS nanoparticles, chosen for their high near-infrared (NIR) absorption and efficient photothermal conversion, were analyzed via finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations to optimize nanoparticle morphology, thus avoiding costly trial-and-error synthesis. FDTD simulations determined that Cu2-xS nanorods (Cu-NRs) with an optimal aspect ratio of 2.2 had superior NIR absorption. Guided by FDTD simulations, the composite coating composed of Cu-NRs in clear acrylic resin paint was brush-coated to glass, achieving 62.4% visual transmittance and over 95% NIR absorbance. Photothermal conversion tests exhibited a significant temperature increase, with the coating reaching 65 °C under NIR irradiation within 6 min. The dynamic deicing process of ice beads on the coating at -20 °C completed within 220s, in contrast to the frozen state on glass coated with clear acrylic resin paint. Furthermore, heat transfer simulations in COMSOL illustrated melting initiation at the ice-coating interface and subsequent progression through the ice layer. This simulation-driven synthesis method and photothermal testing offer a design framework for the fabrication of photothermal deicing coatings with applications for automobiles, buildings, and aircraft in cold environments.

Abstract
Plasmonic semiconductors are promising candidates for developing energy conversion devices due to their tunable band gap, cost-effectiveness, and nontoxicity. Such materials exhibit remarkable capabilities for harvesting infrared photons, which constitute half of the solar energy spectrum. Herein, we have synthesized near-infrared (NIR) active CuxInyS nanocrystals and CuxInyS/CdS heterostructure nanocrystals (HNCs) to investigate plasmon-induced charge transfer dynamics on an ultrafast time scale. Employing femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy, we demonstrate that upon exciting the HNCs with sub-band gap NIR photons (λ = 840 nm), the hot holes are generated in the valence band of plasmonic CuxInyS and transferred to the adjacent semiconductor. The decreased signal intensity and accelerated hole phonon relaxation dynamics for HNCs reveal efficient transfer of plasmon-induced hot carriers from CuxInyS to CdS under both 840 and 350 nm laser excitations, providing a pathway for enhanced carrier utilization. These findings shed light on the potential of ternary chalcogenides in plasmonic applications, highlighting efficient hot carrier extraction to adjacent semiconductors.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy has attracted extensive attentions in cancer treatment due to its precise spatial-temporal controllability, minimal invasiveness, and negligible side effects. However, two major deficiencies, unsatisfactory heat conversion efficiency and limited tissue penetration depth, hugely impeded its clinical application. In this work, hollow carbon nanosphere modified with polyethylene glycol-graft-polyethylenimine (HPP) was elaborately synthesized. The synthesized HPP owns outstanding physical properties as a photothermal agent, such as uniform core-shell structure, good biocompatibility and excellent heat conversion efficiency. Upon NIR-II laser irradiation, the intracellular HPP shows excellent photothermal activity towards cancer cell killing. In addition, depending on the large internal cavity of HPP, the extended biomedical application as drug carrier was also demonstrated. In general, the synthesized HPP holds a great potential in NIR-II laser-activated cancer photothermal therapy.

Abstract
Biofunctionalized quantum dots (QDs) are effective target fluorescent labels for bioimaging. However, conventional synthesis of biofunctionalized I-III-VI core-shell CuInS2/ZnS QDs requires complex bench-top operations, resulting in limited product performance and variety, and is not amenable to a 'one-step' approach. In this work, we have successfully demonstrated a fully automated method for preparing denatured bovine serum albumin (dBSA)-CuInS2/ZnS QDs by introducing microfluidic (MF) chips to synthesize biofunctionalized QDs, hence establishing a 'one-step' procedure. We have also studied and optimized the reaction synthesis parameters. The emission wavelength of the dBSA-CuInS2/ZnS QDs is located in the near-infrared range and can be tuned from 650 to 750 nm by simply varying the reaction parameters. In addition, the 'one-step'-synthesized dBSA-CuInS2/ZnS QDs have a long average fluorescence lifetime of 153.76 ns and a small particle size of 5 ± 2 nm. To demonstrate the applicability of the 'one-step'-synthesized dBSA-CuInS2/ZnS QDs in bioimaging studies, we modified the QDs with folic acid and hyaluronic acid, and then performed target bioimaging and cytotoxicity tests on macrophages, liver cancer cells and pancreatic cancer cells. The cell images show that the red emission signals originate from the QDs, which indicates that the dBSA-CuInS2/ZnS QDs prepared by the MF approach are suitable optical contrast agents for target bioimaging. This 'one-step' MF-based QD synthesis approach could serve as a rapid, cost-effective, and small-scale nanocrystal production platform for complex QD formulations for a wide range of bioapplications.

Abstract
Size- and shape-dependent features of plasmonic nanocrystals govern the development of their applications. In the past decades, gold nanostructures, such as gold nanorods and nanoshells, have been well studied and applied for sensing, bioimaging, and photothermal generation. However, knowledge of copper chalcogenide, a new generation of plasmonic nanomaterials, is limited, especially about their preparation and size- and shape-dependent photothermal properties. In this work, controllable size and shape Cu2-x S nanocrystals (NCs) are synthesized by a facile aqueous route. Using low-molecular-weight polyethylenimine (PEI) as the reducing and capping agents, the size and shape of Cu2-x S NCs can be controlled with lengths from 6.5 to 46.5 nm and the aspect ratio from 2.2 to 7.5 by adjusting the concentration of PEI. The plasmonic peak of Cu2-x S experiences a redshift (from 1145 to 1369 nm) when the length increases from 6.5 to 44.5 nm. Under the irradiation of 1064 nm laser with 1.33 W/cm2, an excellent photothermal conversion rate (from 34.9 to 49.0%) is obtained. The characterization of Cu2-x S NCs is conducted with a UV-vis spectrometer, transmission electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction measurements, and 1064 nm laser.

Abstract
One of the obstacles preventing the commercialization of colloidal nanoparticle catalysts is the difficulty in fabricating these materials at scale while maintaining a high level of control over their resulting morphologies, and ultimately, their properties. Translation of batch-scale solution nanoparticle syntheses to continuous flow reactors has been identified as one method to address the scaling issue. The superior heat and mass transport afforded by the high surface-area-to-volume ratios of micro- and millifluidic channels allows for high control over reaction conditions and oftentimes results in decreased reaction times, higher yields, and/or more monodisperse size distributions compared to an analogous batch reaction. Furthermore, continuous flow reactors are automatable and have environmental health and safety benefits, making them practical for commercialization. Herein, a discussion of continuous flow methods, reactor design, and potential challenges is presented. A thorough account of the implementation of these technologies for the fabrication of catalytically active metal nanoparticles is reviewed for hydrogenation, electrocatalysis, and oxidation reactions.

Abstract
In recent years, a broad range of nanocrystals have been synthesized in droplet-based microfluidic reactors which provide obvious advantages, such as accurate manipulation, better reproducibility and reliable automation. In this review, we initially introduce general concepts of droplet reactors followed by discussions of their main functional regions including droplet generation, mixing of reactants, reaction controlling, in situ monitoring, and reaction quenching. Subsequently, the enhanced mass and heat transport properties are discussed. Next, we focus on research frontiers including sequential multistep synthesis, intelligent synthesis, reliable scale-up synthesis, and interfacial synthesis. Finally, we end with an outlook on droplet reactors, especially highlighting some aspects such as large-scale production, the integrated process of synthesis and post-synthetic treatments, automated droplet reactors with in situ monitoring and optimizing algorithms, and rapidly developing strategies for interfacial synthesis.

Abstract
Surficial defects in semiconductor can induce high density of carriers and cause localized surface plasmon resonance which is prone to light harvesting and energy conversion, while internal defects may cause serious recombination of electrons and holes. Thus, it is significant to precisely control the distribution of defects, although there are few successful examples. Herein, an effective strategy to confine abundant defects within the surface layer of Cu1.94 S nanoflake arrays (NFAs) is reported, leaving a perfect internal structure. The Cu1.94 S NFAs are then applied in photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. As expected, the surficial defects give rise to strong LSPR effect and quick charge separation near the surface; meanwhile, they provide active sites for catalyzing hydrogen evolution. As a result, the NFAs achieve the top PEC properties ever reported for Cux S-based photocathodes.

Abstract
The continuous synthesis of biodegradable photothermal copper sulfide nanoparticles has been carried out with the aid of a microfluidic platform. A comparative physicochemical characterization of the resulting products from the microreactor and from a conventional batch reactor has been performed. The microreactor is able to operate in a continuous manner and with a 4-fold reduction in the synthesis times compared to that of the conventional batch reactor producing nanoparticles with the same physicochemical requirements. Biodegradation subproducts obtained under simulated physiological conditions have been identified, and a complete cytotoxicological analysis on different cell lines was performed. The photothermal effect of those nanomaterials has been demonstrated in vitro as well as their ability to generate reactive oxygen species.
