CuS and CuS have been investigated respectively as anodes of lithium-ion batteries because of their abundant resources, no environment pollution, good electrical conductivity, and a stable discharge voltage plateau. In this work, CuS/CuS nanocomposites were firstly prepared simultaneously by the one-pot synthesis method at a relatively higher reaction temperature 200 °C. The CuS/CuS nanocomposites anodes exhibited a high initial discharge capacity, an excellent reversible rate capability, and remarkable cycle stability at a high current density, which could be due to the nano-size of the CuS/CuS nanocomposites and the assistance of CuS. The high electrochemical performance of the CuS/CuS nanocomposites indicated that the CuS nanomaterials will be a potential lithium-ion battery anode.

The development of intelligent nanotheranostic technology that integrates diagnostic and therapeutic functions holds great promise for personalized nanomedicine. However, most of the nanotheranostic agents exhibit "always-on" properties and do not involve an amplification step, which may largely limit imaging contrast and restrict therapeutic efficacy. Herein, we construct a novel nanotheranostic platform (Hemin/DHPs/PDA@CuS nanocomposite) by assembling DNA hairpin probes (DHPs) and hemin on the surface of PDA@CuS nanosheets that enables amplified fluorescence imaging and activatable chemodynamic therapy (CDT) of tumors.

Cervical cancer stands is a formidable malignancy that poses a significant threat to women's health. Calcium overload, a minimally invasive tumor treatment, aims to accumulate an excessive concentration of Ca within mitochondria, triggering apoptosis. Copper sulfide (CuS) represents a photothermal mediator for tumor hyperthermia.

Efficient wastewater treatment, particularly the removal of heavy metal ions, remains a challenging priority in environmental remediation. This study introduces a novel sandwich-structured nanocomposite, RGO-CuS-PPy, composed of reduced graphene oxide (RGO), copper sulfide (CuS), and polypyrrole (PPy), synthesized via a straightforward hydrothermal method. The unique combination of RGO, CuS, and PPy offers enhanced adsorption capacity for Ni(II) ions due to RGO's high surface area and CuS's active binding sites, supported by PPy's structural stability contributions.
