The Dy3＋-doped chalcohalide glasses exhibit good thermal stability and intense MIR emissions around 2.96 μm and 4.41 μm. These emissions show quantum efficiencies （η） as high as ～ 60%, and have relatively large stimulated emission cross sections （σem）. The low phonon energy （～ 307 cm-1） of the host glass accounts for the intense MIR emissions, as well as the high η. These favorable thermal and emission properties make the Dy3＋-doped Ga2S3-Sb2S3-CsI glasses promising materials for MIR fiber amplifiers or lasers.展开更多

The NGs promote the progress of self-powered biomedical devices. Moreover, NGs can also be used as sensors to detect a variety of important physiological signals, which brings us closer to real-time, high-fidelity monitoring of physical and pathological information. This paper summarizes the in vivo applications of NGs as biomedical sensors, including in cardiac sensors, respiration sensors, blood pressure sensors, gastrointestinal sensors and bladder sensors.However, there are still many challenges in using NGs as sensors in vivo. For example, how can we minimize and encapsulate the NGs, how can we increase the stability and reliability during long-term detection, and how can we establish a corresponding relationship between the NG’s electrical output and the physiological signals. It is also critical to follow the medical principles more closely in the development of self-powered sensors in the future. We believe that the self-powered sensors would promote the development of the next-generation healthcare monitoring systems.展开更多
