Porous BiO-BiS composite sheets were constructed through a combinational methodology of chemical bath deposition and hydrothermal reaction. The NaS precursor concentration in the hydrothermal solution was varied to understand the correlation between the vulcanization degree and structure evolution of the porous BiO-BiS composite sheets. The control of the etching rate of the BiO sheet template and the regrowth rate of BiS crystallites via suitable sulfide precursor concentration during the hydrothermal reaction utilizes the formation of porous BiO-BiS sheets. Due to the presence of BiS crystallites and porous structure in the BiO-BiS composites, the improved visible-light absorption ability and separation efficiency of photogenerated charge carriers are achieved. Furthermore, the as-synthesized BiO-BiS composite sheets obtained from vulcanization with a 0.01M NaS precursor display highly enhanced photocatalytic degradation toward methyl orange (MO) dyes compared with the pristine BiO and BiS. The porous BiO-BiS sheet system shows high surface active sites, fast transfer, high-efficiency separation of photoinduced charge carriers, and enhanced redox capacity concerning their constituent counterparts. This study affords a promising approach to constructing BiO-based Z-scheme composites with a suitable microstructure and BiO/BiS phase ratio for photoactive device applications.

The abnormally viscous and thick mucus is a hallmark of cystic fibrosis (CF). How the mutated CF gene causes abnormal mucus remains an unanswered question of paramount interest. Mucus is produced by the hydration of gel-forming mucin macromolecules that are stored in intracellular granules prior to release.

High capacity, selective recovery and separation of precious metals from complex aqueous solutions is essential but remains a challenge in practical applications. Here, we prepared a thiophene-modified aromatic porous organic cage (T-PAC) with high stability for precise recognition and recovery of gold. T-PAC exhibits an outstanding gold uptake capacity of up to 2260 mg/g with fast adsorption kinetics and high adsorption selectivity.

Modification of silica interfaces by covalent attachment of functional ligands is a primary means of controlling the interfacial chemistry of porous silicas used in separations, environmental cleanup, and biosensing. Recently, modification of hydrophobic, -alkyl-silane-functionalized interfaces has been achieved through self-assembly of zwitterionic phospholipids or mixed-charged surfactants to form "hybrid bilayers", producing interfaces that mimic lipid-bilayer partitioning and provide shape-selective partitioning of aromatic hydrocarbons. Charged headgroups, however, introduce electrostatic interactions that strongly influence the retention of ionizable solutes and require careful control over pH and ionic strength in the solution phase.

Despite rapid developments of wearable self-powered sensors, it is still elusive to decouple the simultaneously applied multiple input signals. Herein, we report the design and demonstration of stretchable thermoelectric porous graphene foam-based materials via facile laser scribing for self-powered decoupled strain and temperature sensing. The resulting sensor can accurately detect temperature with a resolution of 0.

Carbon dioxide capture underpins an important range of technologies that can help to mitigate climate change. Improved carbon capture technologies that are driven by electrochemistry are under active development, and it was recently found that supercapacitor energy storage devices can reversibly capture and release carbon dioxide. So-called supercapacitive swing adsorption (SSA) has several advantages over traditional carbon dioxide capture technologies such as lower energy consumption and the use of nontoxic materials.
