The charge and energy transfer dynamics in colloidal CdSeTe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs)/monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS) heterostructures have been investigated by time-resolved single-dot photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. A time-gated method is used to separate the PL photons of single QDs from the PL photons of monolayer MoS, which are impossible to be separated by the spectral filter due to their spectral overlap. It is found that the energy transfer from MoS to single QDs increases the exciton generation of the QDs by 37.5% and the energy transfer from single QDs to MoS decreases the PL quantum yield of the QDs by 66.9%. In addition, it is found that MoS increases the discharging rate of single QDs by 59%, while the charging rate remains unchanged. This investigation not only provides valuable insight into the exciton generation and recombination at the single-dot level across such hybrid 0D-2D interfaces but also promotes the application of the hybrid system in various optoelectronic devices.

Weather recognition is crucial due to its significant impact on various aspects of daily life, such as weather prediction, environmental monitoring, tourism, and energy production. Several studies have already conducted research on image-based weather recognition. However, previous studies have addressed few types of weather phenomena recognition from images with insufficient accuracy.

The general control non-repressible 5 (GCN5)-related N-acetyltransferase (GNAT) SbzI, in the biosynthesis of the sulfonamide antibiotic altemicidin, catalyzes the transfer of the 2-sulfamoylacetyl (2-SA) moiety onto 6-azatetrahydroindane dinucleotide. While most GNAT superfamily utilize acyl-coenzyme A (acyl-CoA) as substrates, SbzI recognizes a carrier-protein (CP)-tethered 2-SA substrate. Moreover, SbzI is the only naturally occurring enzyme that catalyzes the direct incorporation of sulfonamide, a valuable pharmacophore in medicinal chemistry.

Smart control of energy interactions plays a key role in manipulating upconversion dynamics and tuning emission colors for lanthanide-doped materials. However, quantifying the energy flux in particular energy migration in the representative sensitizer-activator coupled upconversion system has remained a challenge. Here we report a conceptual model to examine the energy flux in a single nanoparticle by designing an interfacial energy transfer mediated nanostructure.

Tightly bound electron-hole pairs (excitons) hosted in atomically-thin semiconductors have emerged as prospective elements in optoelectronic devices for ultrafast and secured information transfer. The controlled exciton transport in such excitonic devices requires manipulating potential energy gradient of charge-neutral excitons, while electrical gating or nanoscale straining have shown limited efficiency of exciton transport at room temperature. Here, we report strain gradient induced exciton transport in monolayer tungsten diselenide (WSe) across microns at room temperature via steady-state pump-probe measurement.
