Article Abstract

In this review we focus on demonstrating how organic electronic materials can solve key problems in biosensing thanks to their unique material properties and implementation in innovative device configurations. We highlight specific examples where these materials solve multiple issues related to complex sensing environments, and we benchmark these examples by comparing them to state-of-the-art commercially available sensing using alternative technologies. We have categorized our examples by sample type, focusing on sensing from body fluids in vitro and on wearable sensors, which have attracted significant interest owing to their integration with everyday life activities. We finish by describing a future trend for in vivo, implantable sensors, which aims to build on current progress from sensing in biological fluids ex vivo.

The molecular force field (FF) determines the accuracy of molecular dynamics (MD) and is one of the major bottlenecks that limits the application of MD in molecular design. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, such as machine-learning potentials (MLPs), have been rapidly reshaping the landscape of MD. Meanwhile, organic molecular systems feature unique characteristics, and require more careful treatment in both model construction, optimization, and validation.

Life-time of the buildings is generally challenged by the act of nature. In-spite of the fact that the constructions provide minimum guarantee on quality and durability, certain mismatch in the composition of the materials, stress on the building, and chemical or physical imbalance of the materials, lead to surface crack. Cracks are also generated due to the shuffle of climatic conditions, which leads to the contraction and expansion of the building surfaces, and other damages.

Microwave Sensor with Light-Assisted Enhancement Based on TiCT MXene: Toward ppb-Level NO Detection Limits.

ACS Sens

State Key Laboratory of Integrated Optoelectronics, College of Electronic Science and Engineering, Jilin University, Changchun 130012, P. R. China.

Chemiresistive sensors are currently the most popular gas sensors, and metal semiconductor oxides are often used as sensitive materials (SMs). However, their high operating temperature means that more energy is required to maintain normal operation of the SM, resulting in an increase in power consumption of the entire sensing system. In order to solve this problem, a microwave gas sensor embedded with multilayer TiCT MXene and split ring resonator (SRR) for nitrogen dioxide (NO) detection was reported in this work.

Sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (SPAN) exhibits a very high cycle stability by overcoming the shuttle effect of conventional Li-S batteries. However, there are still controversies in SPAN about the bonding types of sulfur with the matrix, their critical synthesis temperature regions, and their roles in the electrochemical lithium storage reaction, seriously hindering the economical synthesis of SPAN, the optimization of performances, and the exploration of other SPAN-like alternatives. The key to solving the above problems lies in accurate measurements of the thermodynamic evolution of bonding interactions in the synthesis process as well as in the electrochemical process.
