Although singlefunctional textiles with antibacterial, photochromic, and strain-sensing properties have been developed, they are unable to meet the demand for multifunctional textiles. In this respect, this study developed a poly(lactic acid) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)/thermoplastic polyurethane/carbon black nanoparticle composite nanofiber yarn(PPTCY) with a hollow-core-sheath structure using a simple conjugate electrospinning technology. PPTCY possessed excellent mechanical strength and could be effectively woven. More importantly, it not only enabled real-time visual monitoring of ultraviolet(UV) intensity in the environment but also possessed excellent antibacterial properties and strain-sensing performance. Its ΔE value was up to 58.24, and its antibacterial rates against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were both 99.99%. This fabric had excellent strainsensing performance, high linearity, and durability under both pressure and stretching deformations. This research provides favorable technical support for the application of intelligent textiles in the field of UV protection and traffic safety.展开更多

In contrast to conventional NIR-I window excitation (808nm/980nm), FLI with NIR-II window excitation (1064nm/other wavelength beyond 1000nm) can afford deeper tissue penetration depth with high clarity due to the merits of suppressed photon scattering and diminished autofluorescence. In this review, we have summarized NIR-II window excitable/emissive organic/polymeric fluorophores recently developed. The characteristics of these fluorophores such as chemical structures and photophysical properties have also been critically discussed. Furthermore, the latest development of noninvasive in vivo FLI with NIR-II excitation was highlighted. The ideal imaging results emphasized the importance of NIR-II excitation of these fluorophores in enabling deep tissue penetration and high-resolution imaging. Finally, a perspective on the challenges and prospects of NIR-II excitable/emissive organic/polymeric fluorophores was also discussed. We expected this review will be served as a source of inspiration for researchers, stimulating the creation of novel NIR-II excitable fluorophores and fostering the development of bioimaging applications.展开更多

文摘Molecular tailoring of self-assembled hole-transporting monolayers(SAMs)has been proven as an efficient approach for improving the device performance of inverted perovskite solar cells.Herein,a novel SAM with extended conjugation is designed and synthesized,named NaPh-4PACz.Compared to Ph-4PACz,NaPh-4PACz exhibits a larger adsorption energy with the ITO substrate,enabling the formation of a more uniform and dense film,thereby preventing direct contact between the perovskite and ITO.Additionally,NaPh-4PACz also has a stronger interaction with the perovskite,which can reduce buried interface defects and suppress non-radiative recombination.Consequently,NaPh-4PACz-based devices achieved a power conversion efficiency of 25.48%due to their interfacial“adhesive”ability.Importantly,the stability of the NaPh-4PACz-based devices was significantly improved.

文摘Formamidinium lead iodide(FAPbI_(3))perovskite exhibits an impressive X-ray absorption coefficient and a large carrier mobility-lifetime product(μτ),making it as a highly promising candidate for X-ray detection application.However,the presence of larger FA^(+)cation induces to an expansion of the Pb-I octahedral framework,which unfortunately affects both the stability and charge carrier mobility of the corresponding devices.To address this challenge,we develop a novel low-dimensional(HtrzT)PbI_(3) perovskite featuring a conjugated organic cation(1H-1,2,4-Triazole-3-thiol,HtrzT^(+))which matches well with theα-FAPbI_(3) lattices in two-dimensional plane.Benefiting from the matched lattice between(HtrzT)PbI_(3) andα-FAPbI_(3),the anchored lattice enhances the Pb-I bond strength and effectively mitigates the inherent tensile strain of theα-FAPbI_(3) crystal lattice.The X-ray detector based on(HtrzT)PbI_(3)(1.0)/FAPbI_(3) device achieves a remarkable sensitivity up to 1.83×10^(5)μC Gy_(air)^(−1) cm^(−2),along with a low detection limit of 27.6 nGy_(air) s^(−1),attributed to the release of residual stress,and the enhancement in carrier mobility-lifetime product.Furthermore,the detector exhibits outstanding stability under X-ray irradiation with tolerating doses equivalent to nearly 1.17×10^(6) chest imaging doses.

文摘The light-driven CO_(2)reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR)to CO is a very effective way to address global warming.To avoid competition with water photolysis,metal-free gas-solid CO_(2)RR catalysts should be investigated.Covalent organic frameworks(COFs)offer a promising approach for CO_(2)transformation but lack high efficiency and selectivity in the absence of metals.Here,we have incorporated a pyridine nitrogen component into the imine-COF conjugated structure(Tp Pym).This innovative system has set a record of producing a CO yield of 1565μmol g^(-1)within 6 h.The soft X-ray absorption fine structure measurement proves that Tp Pym has both better conjugation and electron cloud enrichment.The electronic structure distribution delays the charge-carrier recombination,as evidenced by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy.The energy band diagram and theoretical calculation show that the conduction-band potential of Tp Pym is lower and the reduction reaction of CO_(2)to CO is more likely to occur.

文摘π-Conjugated donor-acceptor-donor-acceptor-donor(D-A-D-A-D)type pyrenoviologens(PyV^(2+)),with the 2,7 positions of pyrene serving as connection bridges,were synthesized through SN2 reactions.Specifically,pyrenoviologen 3c was modified with a methylnaphthalene group,while 3a and 3b were modified with methyl and benzyl groups,respectively,for comparison.These pyrenoviologens exhibit reversible redox properties and strong fluorescence emission.Electrochromic devices(ECDs)were prepared using pyrenoviologens as the active materials.Notably,naphthalene-containing pyrenoviologen 3c,with its DA-D-A-D conjugated structure,possesses more stable free radicals,enabling it to maintain the radical color for a longer duration after power loss.A series of color-changing devices were successfully assembled.Due to the strong fluorescence of pyrenoviologens and the unique electron transfer effect between them and picric acid(PA),a sensor film with good selectivity and high sensitivity for PA in aqueous solution was prepared using pyrenoviologens as the fluorescent probe.Specifically,3c exhibited the highest sensitivity to PA due to its lowest energy gap.The introduction of the D-A-D-A-D structure is a strategic approach to enhancing photoelectric performance and broadening the application of viologens.

文摘The fluorescence imaging (FLI) in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000–1700nm) has attracted considerable attention in the past decade. In contrast to conventional NIR-I window excitation (808nm/980nm), FLI with NIR-II window excitation (1064nm/other wavelength beyond 1000nm) can afford deeper tissue penetration depth with high clarity due to the merits of suppressed photon scattering and diminished autofluorescence. In this review, we have summarized NIR-II window excitable/emissive organic/polymeric fluorophores recently developed. The characteristics of these fluorophores such as chemical structures and photophysical properties have also been critically discussed. Furthermore, the latest development of noninvasive in vivo FLI with NIR-II excitation was highlighted. The ideal imaging results emphasized the importance of NIR-II excitation of these fluorophores in enabling deep tissue penetration and high-resolution imaging. Finally, a perspective on the challenges and prospects of NIR-II excitable/emissive organic/polymeric fluorophores was also discussed. We expected this review will be served as a source of inspiration for researchers, stimulating the creation of novel NIR-II excitable fluorophores and fostering the development of bioimaging applications.

文摘A comprehensive understanding of the relevance between molecular structure and passivation ability to screen efficient modifiers is essential for enhancing the performance of perovskite solar cells(PSCs).Here,three similarπ-πstacking molecules namely benzophenone(BPN),diphenyl sulfone(DPS),and diphenyl sulfoxide(DPSO)are used as back-interface modifiers in carbon-based CsPbBr_(3)PSCs.After investigation,the results demonstrate the positive effect of the p-πconjugation characteristic inπ-πstacking molecules on maximizing their passivation ability.The p-πco njugation of DPSO enables a higher coordinative activity of oxygen atom in its S=O group than that in 0=S=O group of DPS and C=O group of BPN,which gives a superior passivation effect of DPSO on defects of perovskite films.The modification of DPSO also significantly improves the p-type behavior of perovskite films and the back-interfacial energetics matching,inducing an increase of hole extraction and a decrease of energy loss.Finally,the unencapsulated carbon-based CsPbBr_(3)PSCs with DPSO achieve a maximum power conversion efficiency of 10.60%and outstanding long-term stability in high-temperature,high-humidity(85℃,85%relative humidity)air environment.This work provides insights into the influence of the structure ofπ-πstacking molecules on their ability to improve the perovskite films quality and therefore the PSCs performance.
文摘BACKGROUND Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease(MASLD)is the most common chronic liver disease worldwide.Its prevalence is closely linked to the dramatic rise in obesity and non-communicable diseases.MASLD exhibits a progressive trajectory that may culminate in development of hepatic cirrhosis,thereby predisposing affected individuals to an elevated likelihood of hepatocarcinogenesis.Diet,especially dietary fatty acids,serves as a key link between nutrient intake and MASLD pathogenesis.AIM To explore the impact of various omega-6 fatty acid subtypes on the pathogenesis and therapeutic strategies of MASLD.METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted across Web of Science,PubMed,Cochrane Central,Scopus,and Embase databases from inception through June 2024 to identify all original studies linking different subtypes of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids to the pathogenesis and management of MASLD.The search strategy explored the linkage between omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids and their subtypes,including linoleic acid(LA),gamma-linolenic acid(GLA),arachidonic acid,conjugated LA,and docosapentaenoic acid,in relation to MASLD and cardiometabolic risk.RESULTS By employing the specified search strategy,a total of 83 articles were identified as potentially eligible.During the title,abstract,and full-text screening phases,27 duplicate records were removed,leaving 56 records for relevance screening.Of these,43 records were excluded for reasons such as irrelevance and language restrictions(limited to English),resulting in 13 full-text articles being included for detailed assessment(10 human studies,1 animal study,and 2 review articles).Although certain subtypes,as GLA,dihomo-GLA,omega-6-derived oxylipins,and most arachidonic acid-derived eicosanoids,exhibit pro-inflammatory effects,our findings suggest that other subtypes such as LA,cis-9,trans-11 conjugated LA,and docosapentaenoic acid have beneficial effects on fatty liver,cardiometabolic risk factors,and inflammation,even at high intake levels.CONCLUSION The varying health effects of omega-6 fatty acids,ranging from anti-inflammatory to pro-inflammatory impacts on the liver,leave the question of their recommendation for MASLD patients unresolved.This underscores the importance of careful selection when considering omega-6 supplementation.

文摘Fully conjugated covalent organic frameworks(COFs)are widely used in electrocatalysis.The COF with-ph-NH_(2)edge poly(1,4-phenyldiazo porphyrin cobalt)(A-PpazoPorCo)is synthesized by adjusting the molar ratio of the reaction material,and exhibits high delocalization energy to significantly enhance thermal stability.The nitrogen in the azo bond improves the adsorption capacity for ORR and OER catalytic intermediates,while the-ph-NH_(2)group further increases the electron cloud density at the Co-N_(4)center in A-PpazoPorCo.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations reveal that the strong electron-donating-ph-NH_(2)groups and the electron-donating azo bonds form an electron donor-π-electron acceptor(D-π-A)structure,which further enhances the electron cloud density.The strongπ-πinteraction between A-PpazoPorCo and three-dimensional graphene(3D-G)significantly boosts the oxygen catalytic performance of the A-PpazoPorCo/3D-G.The catalytic ORR half-wave potential(E_(1/2))of A-PpazoPorCo/3D-G can reach 0.880 V vs.RHE.The total overpotential(ΔE=E_(j=10)-E_(1/2))is 0.617 V,demonstrating excellent bifunctional oxygen catalytic performance.The efficient oxygen catalytic performance indicates that A-PpazoPorCo/3D-G has the potential for application in fuel cells cathodes and overall water splitting anodes.

文摘Tactile perception plays a vital role for the human body and is also highly desired for smart prosthesis and advanced robots.Compared to active sensing devices,passive piezoelectric and triboelectric tactile sensors consume less power,but lack the capability to resolve static stimuli.Here,we address this issue by utilizing the unique polarization chemistry of conjugated polymers for the first time and propose a new type of bioinspired,passive,and bio-friendly tactile sensors for resolving both static and dynamic stimuli.Specifically,to emulate the polarization process of natural sensory cells,conjugated polymers(including poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophen e):poly(styrenesulfonate),polyaniline,or polypyrrole)are controllably polarized into two opposite states to create artificial potential differences.The controllable and reversible polarization process of the conjugated polymers is fully in situ characterized.Then,a micro-structured ionic electrolyte is employed to imitate the natural ion channels and to encode external touch stimulations into the variation in potential difference outputs.Compared with the currently existing tactile sensing devices,the developed tactile sensors feature distinct characteristics including fully organic composition,high sensitivity(up to 773 mV N^(−1)),ultralow power consumption(nW),as well as superior bio-friendliness.As demonstrations,both single point tactile perception(surface texture perception and material property perception)and two-dimensional tactile recognitions(shape or profile perception)with high accuracy are successfully realized using self-defined machine learning algorithms.This tactile sensing concept innovation based on the polarization chemistry of conjugated polymers opens up a new path to create robotic tactile sensors and prosthetic electronic skins.
文摘Organic luminescent materials hold significant promise for applications in modern technology.Traditionally,their design has been guided byπ-conjugation theory.However,the recent discovery of weak interactions-based luminescent materials,such as multiarylalkanes(MAAs),has challenged this paradigm.Emerging research suggests that these materials emit light from through-space conjugation(TSC),includingπ-π,n-π,and n-n TSC.Owing to their well-defined structures and facile chemical modification,MAAs serve as ideal models for investigating TSC.This review systematically examines the mechanisms of TSC in these systems from three key perspectives:conformational regulation,donor-acceptor(D-A)and n-electronic modulation.Studies on their photophysical processes reveal that conformational control and D-A electronic modulation predominantly influence emission throughπ-πTSC.In contrast,tuning the n-electron structure,particularly involving lone pair electrons on nitrogen atoms,introduces n-πand n-n TSC,enabling red-shifted emission and enhanced luminescence efficiency.By providing a comprehensive analysis of TSC in MAAs,this review refines the current understanding of TSC-based luminescence and offers valuable design principles for developing novel,highly efficient,weak interactions-based luminescent materials.

文摘The demand for enhanced optical properties in advanced fluorescence technologies has driven research into the structure-property relationship of fluorophores.In this paper,we use naphthalene fluorophores Na DC-Aze and PhDO-Aze as a case study to emphasize the pivotal role of cross conjugation in tuning the optical structure-property relationship.Na DC-Aze and PhDO-Aze,formed by hybridizing two distinct conjugated systems in a single naphthalene molecule,exhibit spectral characteristics from both conjugated systems.Experimental data and theoretical calculations demonstrate the coexistence of two electron-delocalization systems in a cross-conjugation manner in both Na DC-Aze and PhDO-Aze.The cross-conjugation fluorophores exhibit high brightness,large Stokes shift,and a broad absorption wavelength range by combining distinct spectral properties from its parent fluorophores.These spectral properties will be advantageous for certain applications(i.e.,panchromatic absorption in organic solar cells,and fluorophores compatible with a wide range of excitation wavelengths).

文摘Sonodynamic therapy(SDT)is garnering considerable attention as a promising treatment for deep-seated tumors because of its strong tissue penetration ability,non-invasiveness,and controllability.However,the SDT efficiency of traditional sonosensitizers including porphyrins and their derivatives are limited due to their poor water dissolubility,high aggregation,and low reactive oxygen species(ROS)production efficiency.Consequently,it is crucial to develop novel sonosensitizers with high yields of ROS,outstanding water solubility,and good biocompatibility.Herein,we constructed a new platform for SDT based on unimolecular porphyrin derivatives OPV-C_(3)-TPP.The probe OPV-C_(3)-TPP was synthesized by covalently linking conjugated oligomers(OPV)with 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-aminophenyl)porphyrin(TAPP).The introduction of OPV greatly improves the water solubility of the porphyrins and reduces the self-aggregation of the porphyrins.In addition,OPV-C_(3)-TPP has good intramolecular energy transfer efficiency,thus enhancing the yield of ROS.The experimental results show that OPV-C_(3)-TPP exhibits excellent ROS generation capacity under ultrasound(US)irradiation,which leads to apoptosis and necrosis of tumor cells.In vivo tumor growth is also significantly inhibited in the OPV-C_(3)-TPP t US group,exhibiting better SDT effects than TAPP.Therefore,the unimolecular OPV-C_(3)-TPP can be used as a potential sonosensitizer,providing a promising SDT for deep-tissue tumors.

文摘Chemical modification of native peptides and proteins is a versatile strategy to facilitate late-stage diversification for functional studies.Among the proteogenic amino acids,lysine is extensively involved in posttranslational modifications and the binding of ligands to target proteins,making its selective modification attractive.However,lysine’s high natural abundance and solvent accessibility,as well as its relatively low reactivity to cysteine,necessitate addressing chemoselectivity and regioselectivity for the Lys modification of native proteins.Although Lys chemoselective modification methods have been well developed,achieving site-selective modification of a specific Lys residue remains a great challenge.In this review,we discussed the challenges of Lys selective modification,presented recent examples of Lys chemoselective modification,and summarized the currently known methods and strategies for Lys site-selective modification.We also included an outlook on potential solutions for Lys site-selective labeling and its potential applications in chemical biology and drug development.

文摘Diradicaloid polycyclic hydrocarbons(PHs)own unique open-shell electronic structures and exhibit potential utility in the fields of organic electronics and spintronics.Herein,we disclose precise fusion of B/O-heterocycles onto PHs for control over their electronic structures and diradical properties.We designed and synthesized four B/O-containing diradicaloid isomers that feature the fluoreno[3,2-b]fluorene and fluoreno[2,1-a]fluoreneπ-skeletons,respectively.The precise B/O-heterocycle fusion modes along with the changed conjugation patterns lead to their modulated electronic structures and properties,such as diradical and aromatic structures,energy levels and band gaps,as well as magnetic,electrochemical and photophysical properties.Notably,the mode A may decrease the open-shell extent,whereas the mode B can enhance the diradical nature,leading to their well-tuned diradical characters in the range of0.46-0.70.Moreover,the mode A stabilizes the LUMOs and the mode B obviously increases the HOMO levels,which are remarkably contributed by the B and O atoms,respectively,further giving rise to the decreased band gaps and redshifted absorptions.This study clearly illustrates the electronic effects of B/O-heterocycle fusion on PHs and gains insight into B/O-type organic diradicaloids.These findings will provide an important guideline for the design of more fascinating heteroatom-containing diradicaloids.
