Red ionic iridium-based transition metal complex light-emitting electrochemical cells (iTMC-LECs) with emission centered at ca. 650 nm, maximum efficiency of 0.3%, maximum brightness above 650 cd m, and device lifetime well above 200 and 33 h at brightness levels of 10 and 210 cd m, respectively, are realized by the introduction of a p-type polymer interface to the standard design of [Ir(ppy)(pbpy)][PF] (Hppy = 2-phenylpyridine, pbpy = 6-phenyl-2,2'-bipyridine) iTMC-LEC. The unexpected color shift from yellow to red is studied in detail with respect to operation conditions and material combination. The experimental data suggest that either exciplex formation or subordinate, usually suppressed optical transitions of the iTMC might become activated by the introduced interface, causing the pronounced red shift of the peak emission wavelength.

A fluorescence "turn-off-on" nanoprobe is designed by using europium-doped strontium molybdate perovskite quantum dots (Eu:SMO PQDs) for the sequential detection of hypoxanthine (Hx) and Fe. The Eu:SMO PQDs were prepared by the sol-gel method using Sr(NO), (NH)MoO.4HO, and Eu(OCOCH) as precursors.

Radical covalent organic frameworks (RCOFs) have demonstrated significant potential in redox catalysis and energy conversion applications. However, the synthesis of stable RCOFs with well-defined neutral carbon radical centers is challenging due to the inherent radical instability, limited synthetic methods and characterization difficulties. Building upon the understanding of stable carbon radicals and structural modulations for preparing crystalline COFs, herein we report the synthesis of a crystalline carbon-centered RCOF through a facile post-oxidation process.

Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS), have emerged as a generation of nonprecious catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), largely due to their theoretical hydrogen adsorption energy close to that of platinum. However, efforts to activate the basal planes of TMDs have primarily centered around strategies such as introducing numerous atomic vacancies, creating vacancy-heteroatom complexes, or applying significant strain, especially for acidic media. These approaches, while potentially effective, present substantial challenges in practical large-scale deployment.

Currently, the development of red Mn-activated fluoride luminescent materials attracts a lot of attention in optical thermometry sensors, solid lighting, display, and plant growth areas. Nevertheless, the thermal stability of Mn-activated fluoride luminescent materials is still a crucial issue. Herein, a new red RbNaVF:Mn luminescent material with outstanding thermal stability was successfully synthesized through the facial coprecipitation method.
