Abstract Long‐lived afterglow emissions, such as room‐temperature phosphorescence (RTP) and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), are beneficial in the fields of displays, bioimaging, and data security. However, it is challenging to realize a single material that simultaneously exhibits both RTP and TADF properties with their relative strengths varied in a controlled manner. Herein, a new design approach is reported to control singlet–triplet energy splitting (∆ E ST ) in graphene qua

Abstract Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have attracted great attention as next‐generation luminescent nanomaterials due to the advantages of a low‐cost process, low toxicity, and unique photoluminescence (PL). However, in the solid‐state, the strong π−π stacking interactions between the basal planes of GQDs lead to aggregation‐caused PL quenching (ACQ), which impedes practical application to light‐emitting devices. Here, surface functionalized GQDs (F‐GQDs) by polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane

Abstract Emerging graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have received much attention for use as next‐generation light‐emitting diodes. However, in the solid‐state, π‐interaction‐induced aggregation‐caused photoluminescence (PL) quenching (ACQ) in GQDs makes it challenging to realize high‐performance devices. Herein, GQDs incorporated with boron oxynitride (GQD@BNO) are prepared from a mixture of GQDs, boric acid, and urea in water via one‐step microwave heating. Due to the effective dispersion in the BNO

A novel trace lead ion (Pb(2+)) detection platform by combining a microfluidic sample pretreatment device with a DNA aptamer linked photoluminescent graphene oxide quantum dot (GOQD) sensor was proposed. The multilayered microdevice included a microchamber which was packed with cation exchange resins for preconcentrating metal ions. The sample loading and recovery were automatically actuated by a peristaltic polydimethylsiloxane micropump with a flow rate of 84 μL/min. Effects of the micropump a

Thermal sensations contribute to our ability to perceive and explore the physical world. Reproducing these sensations in a spatiotemporally programmable manner through wireless computer control could enhance virtual experiences beyond those supported by video, audio and, increasingly, haptic inputs. Flexible, lightweight and thin devices that deliver patterns of thermal stimulation across large areas of the skin at any location of the body are of great interest in this context. Applications rang

We report fabrication and optical characteristics of an InGaP/GaAs heterojunction phototransistor (HPT) transferred to a Si substrate by a metal wafer bonding (MWB) and epitaxial lift-off (ELO) process at room temperature. An intermediate Pt/Au double layer between the HPT layer and Si provided a very smooth surface by which to achieve the MWB, and excellent durability against the acid solution during the ELO process. These processes were observed using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and ato

A series of poly[amide11- alt -poly(dimer acid- alt -1,5-diamino-2-methyl)] multiblock copolymers [PA11 H x - alt -(DA-MP) S y ] with high renewable content (up to 95%) was synthesized via bulk polycondensation of a plant oil-based diacid-terminated PA11 hard block (PA11 H x ) and a diamine-terminated PA soft block [(DA-MP) S y ] ( w soft block = 0.31–0.90). The tunable and superior mechanical properties ( E = 4–233 MPa, σ yield = 20–33 MPa, σ b = 744–2233%, and γ = 222–359 MJ m –3 ) of the PA11

Thermal technologies that effectively deliver thermal stimulation through skin-integrated systems and enable temperature perception via the activation of cutaneous thermoreceptors are key to enhancing immersive experiences in virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) through multisensory engagement. However, recent advancements and commercial adoption have predominantly focused on haptic rather than thermal technology. This review provides an overview of recent advancements in wearable thermal devic

Polyamide 11 (PA11) is a semicrystalline polymer with excellent mechanical property. However, the use of PA11 with high crystallinity as an engineering plastic is limited because of its low impact resistance. In this work, a series of sustainable poly(PA11-co-DA) copolymers (PAx-p-DAy) were synthesized via polycondensation from vegetable oil-based dimer acid (DA) and diamine terminated polyamide 11 (ATPA11-x). The molecular structure of PAx-p-DAy was characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR, XRD,
