Benzoselenadiazole-containing inhibitors of protein kinases were constructed and their capability to emit phosphorescence in the kinase-bound state was established. Labelling of the inhibitors with a red fluorescent dye led to sensitive responsive photoluminescent probes for protein kinase CK2 that emitted red light with a long (microsecond-scale) decay time upon excitation of the probes with a pulse of near-UV light.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has long been receiving increasing attention for the minimally invasive treatment of cancer. The performance of PDT depends on the photophysical and biological properties of photosensitizers (PSs). The always-on fluorescence signal of conventional PSs makes it difficult to real-time monitor phototherapeutic efficacy in the PDT process.

In this work, we present an experimental approach for monitoring the temperature of submicrometric, real-time operating electrical circuits using luminescence thermometry. For this purpose, we utilized lanthanide-doped up-converting nanocrystals as nanoscale temperature probes, which, combined with a highly sensitive confocal photoluminescence microscope, enabled temperature monitoring with spatial resolution limited only by the diffraction of light. To validate our concept, we constructed a simple model of an electrical microcircuit based on a single silver nanowire with a diameter of approximately 100 nm and a length of about 50 µm, whose temperature increase was induced by electric current flow.

Singlet exciton fission has the potential to increase the efficiency of crystalline silicon solar cells beyond the conventional single junction limit. Perhaps the largest obstacle to achieving this enhancement is uncertainty about energy coupling mechanisms at the interfaces between silicon and exciton fission materials such as tetracene. Here, the previously reported silicon-hafnium oxynitride-tetracene structure is studied and a combination of magnetic-field-dependent silicon photoluminescence measurements and density functional theory calculations is used to probe the influence of the interlayer composition on the triplet transfer process across the hafnium oxynitride interlayer.

A dual supersaturation recrystallization method was employed to synthesize water-stable, highly sensitive cesium-lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (CsPbBr PNCs). The PNCs exhibited excellent water stability, a significant photoluminescence quantum efficiency of 83.03%, along with a narrow full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 20 nm.

This research delves into the holistic hydrothermal synthesis of VS QDs and their subsequent utilization as a fluorescent probe for the subtle detection of ferric ions (Fe) in practical sample matrices. The detection paradigms harness a colorimetric sensing mechanism, amplified by smartphone-enabled analytical integration for improved precision and real-time monitoring. A comprehensive suite of analytical characterization techniques has been employed, revealing that the as-synthesized VS QDs feature a surface densely populated with functional groups.
