The secondary near-infrared region (NIR-II) fluorescence imaging-guided photothermal therapy (PTT) offers a noninvasive and light-controllable treatment option for deep-seated cancers. However, the development of NIR-II photothermal agents (NIR-II PTAs) that possess the desired properties of high molar absorption coefficient (ε), fluorescence quantum yield (QY), and photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) remain a challenge due to the contradiction between radiative and nonradiative processes. Herein, we propose a novel side-chain heteroatom substitution engineering strategy to simultaneously enhance ε, QY, and PCE by modifying the molecular planarity.

Passive radiative cooling has recently gained significant attention as a highly promising technology that offers a zero-energy and electricity-free solution to tackle the pressing issue of global warming. Nevertheless, research efforts have predominantly focused on enhancing daytime and hot-day radiative cooling efficacy, often neglecting the potential downsides associated with excessive cooling and the consequent increased heating expenses during cold nights and winter days. Herein, we demonstrate a micro-nanostructured engineered composite film that synergistically integrates room-temperature adaptive silica-shell/oil-core phase change microcapsules (S-PCMs) with commercially available cellulose fibers.

We report a comprehensive investigation of the photophysical properties of Hoechst 33258 (HOE) embedded in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films. HOE displays a bright, highly polarized, blue fluorescence emission centered at 430 nm, indicating effective immobilization within the polymer matrix of PVA. Its fluorescence quantum yield is notably high (~0.

This study analyzes the impact of slip-dependent zeta potential on the heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids in cylindrical microchannels with consideration of thermal radiation effects. An analytical model is developed, accounting for the coupling between surface potential and interfacial slip. The linearized Poisson-Boltzmann equation, along with the momentum and energy conservation equations, is solved analytically to obtain the electrical potential field, velocity field, temperature distribution, and Nusselt number for both slip-dependent (SD) and slip-independent (SI) zeta potentials.

The ultrafast excited-state dynamics of endohedral fullerenes are crucial in their photophysical and photochemical processes when they are employed as photovoltaic devices, photocatalytic devices, and single-molecule devices. In this study, by employing the non-adiabatic molecular dynamics simulations based on the time-dependent Kohn-Sham (TD-KS) method, we theoretically studied the size effect on ultrafast excited-state decay dynamics of the photoexcited Be electron in endohedral fullerenes Be@C (2 = 60, 70, and 80). These excited-state decay dynamics, which involve the charge-transfer process, occur in an ultrafast time scale of about 3 ps.
