[PMID: 38714058 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134524] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/09/2024]
Abstract
Developing semiconductor substrates with superior stability and sensitivity is challenging in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) research. Here, a snowflake Cu2S@ZIF-67 heterostructure was fabricated using a straightforward method, exhibiting a notable enhancement factor of 9.0 × 109 and a limit of detection (LOD) of 10-14 M for methylene blue (MB). In addition, the Cu2S@ZIF-67 heterostructure substrate demonstrates outstanding homogeneity (relative standard deviation (RSD) = 9.2%) and stability (120 days). Employing Cu2S generates highly sensitive hotspots via an electromagnetic (EM) mechanism, and the growth of ZIF-67 on its surface augments the adsorption capacity and charge transfer capability (chemical mechanism, CM), thereby enhancing the SERS detection sensitivity. Furthermore, the Cu2S@ZIF-67 heterostructure, which was used as a SERS substrate, facilitated the detection of bisphenol A (BPA) with an LOD of 10-11 M. The Cu2S@ZIF-67 heterostructure substrate has excellent selectivity and anti-interference, which is very suitable for BPA detection in complex environment applications. The accuracy of the Cu2S@ZIF-67 heterostructure as a SERS substrate for detecting BPA in real water samples (water bottles, tap water, and pure milk) was confirmed by comparison with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). These results demonstrate that through the rational design of heterostructures can achieve the quantitative and accurate detection of hazardous substances in food and the environment can be achieved.

Abstract
In this study, new composite materials comprising zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) structures and microchannel glass (MCG) plates were fabricated using the hydrothermal method and their morphological and spectral properties were investigated using XRD, SEM, FTIR, and Raman spectroscopy. XRD studies of powder samples revealed the presence of an additional phase for a ZIF-8 sample, whereas ZIF-67 samples, which were prepared through two different chemical routes, showed no additional phases. A detailed analysis of the FTIR and micro-Raman spectra of the composite samples revealed the formation of stable ZIF structures inside the macropores of the MCG substrate. The hydrophilic nature of the MCG substrate and its interaction with the ZIF structure resulted in the formation of stable ZIF-MCG composites. We believe that these composite materials may find a wide range of important applications in the field of sensors, molecular sieving.

Abstract
In recent years, optical crystals for 1.3 μm all-solid-state passively Q-switched lasers have been widely studied due to their eye-safe band, atmospheric transmission characteristics, compactness, and low cost. They are widely used in the fields of high-precision laser radar, biomedical applications, and fine processing. In this review, we focus on three types of optical crystals used as the 1.3 μm laser gain media: neodymium-doped vanadate (Nd:YVO4, Nd:GdVO4, Nd:LuVO4, neodymium-doped aluminum-containing garnet (Nd:YAG, Nd:LuAG), and neodymium-doped gallium-containing garnet (Nd:GGG, Nd:GAGG, Nd:LGGG). In addition, other crystals such as Nd:KGW, Nd:YAP, Nd:YLF, and Nd:LLF are also discussed. First, we introduce the properties of the abovementioned 1.3 μm laser crystals. Then, the recent advances in domestic and foreign research on these optical crystals are summarized. Finally, the future challenges and development trend of 1.3 μm laser crystals are proposed. We believe this review will provide a comprehensive understanding of the optical crystals for 1.3 μm all-solid-state passively Q-switched lasers.

Abstract
In the present work, we report the structural properties of the two dimensional (2D) few-layered Ti3C2(OH)2/Ti3C2F2 hybrid MXene synthesized via the HF acid etching method. Various characterizations were exploited to demonstrate the 2D layered structural properties of the hybrid MXene membranes. The density functional theory (DFT) simulation indicated the hybrid MXene possessed the small enough band gap, which could benefit the nonlinear optical applications in the infrared region. By the conventional open-aperture Z-scan technique, typical nonlinear saturable features were measured. Consequently, the hybrid MXene membranes exhibited the excellent saturable absorption properties at 1 and 1.3 µm. As a saturable absorber, passively Q-switched Nd:YVO4 lasers with the prepared hybrid MXene membranes were realized at 1 and 1.3 µm, respectively, producing the stable Q-switching pulse train with a shortest duration of 130 ns.

Abstract
We report the first passive Q-switching operation at 1.95 µm utilizing the disordered Tm:CaLu0.1Gd0.9AlO4 (Tm:CLGA) crystal and the hematite (α-Fe2O3) nanosheets as the saturable absorber. The nonlinear saturable absorption properties of the hematite nanosheets were investigated by the conventional Z-scan technology. The modulation depth of 14.3% with the low saturation intensity of 205 kW/cm2 was obtained, indicating that the hematite could be a suitable saturable absorber for the mid-infrared pulse generation. Using the disordered Tm:CLGA crystal as the gain medium, the passive Q-switching operation could be realized with the hematite nanosheets as the saturable absorber, producing the shortest pulse duration of 402 ns with a repetition rate of 76 kHz. The experimental results convinced us that the hematite nanosheets could be of great interest in the optical pulse generation in the mid-infrared region.
