Single doped CaWO:Erphosphors were synthesized and studied for application of optical thermal sensing within a wide range of 98-773 K. Ratiometric strategy utilizing two luminescence intensity ratios, one between host and Erband (LIR) and second between different Ertransitions (LIR), results in self-referencing temperature readouts. The presence of two temperature-dependent parameters could improve thermometric characteristics and broaden the working temperature range compared to a usual single-parameter thermometer. Thermometric performances of prepared samples were evaluated in terms of thermal sensitivities, temperature resolution and repeatability. The highest sensitivity of 2.09% K@300 K was found for LIR, whereas LIRprovided more accurate thermal sensing with a temperature resolution of 0.06-0.1 K. Effect of Erdoping concentration on sensing properties were studied. The presented findings indicate that CaWO:Erphosphors are perspective in dual-mode thermal sensing with high sensitivity and sub-degree resolution.

This study investigates the effects of three brown seaweed species (, , and ), their pre-processing treatments, and incorporation percentages on the physical and sensory properties of crackers. Significant ( ≤ 0.001) two-way and three-way interactions were observed for moisture content, with seaweed addition generally resulting in drier crackers.

Ionic gels (IGs), ionic liquids (ILs) dispersed in polymers, exhibit extremely low vapor pressure, electrochemical and thermal stability, and excellent mechanical characteristics; therefore, they are used for fabricating stretchable sensors, electrochemical transistors, and energy storage devices. Although such characteristics are promising for flexible and stretchable electronics, the mechanical stress-induced ruptured covalent bonds forming polymer networks cannot recover owing to the irreversible interaction between the bonds. Physical cross-linking via noncovalent bonds enables the interaction of polymers and ILs to form supramolecular IGs (SIGs), which exhibit favorable characteristics for wearable devices that conventional IGs with noncovalent bonds cannot achieve.

Hg is highly toxic and can cause serious harm to the environment and humans. Thus, it is vital to develop efficient Hg sensors. In this work, a LMOF-based (LMOF = luminescent metal-organic framework) "turn-on" Hg sensor () is first developed by an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) functional ligand.

Flexible on-skin electronics present tremendous popularity in intelligent electronic skins (e-skins), healthcare monitoring, and human-machine interfaces. However, the reported e-skins can hardly provide high permeability, good stretchability, and large sensitivity and are limited in long-term stability and efficient recyclability when worn on the human body. Herein, inspired from the human skin, a permeable, stretchable, and recyclable cellulose aerogel-based electronic system is developed by sandwiching a screen-printed silver sensing layer between a biocompatible CNF/HPC/PVA (cellulose nanofiber/hydroxypropyl cellulose/poly(vinyl alcohol)) aerogel hypodermis layer and a permeable polyurethane layer as the epidermis layer.

Studies on the compounds of aromatic oils and their effects on psychophysiological changes in humans are often conducted separately. To obtain better validation, a suitable protocol is needed that can be extrapolated to large-scale olfactory stimulation experiments. Unfortunately, this type of study is still rarely performed.
