Here, screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) were modified with ultrafine and mainly mono-disperse sea urchin-like tungsten oxide (SUWO) nanostructures synthesized by a simple one-pot hydrothermal method for non-enzymatic detection of dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA) in synthetic urine. Sea urchin-like nanostructures were clearly observed in scanning electron microscope images and WO composition was confirmed with XRD, Raman, FTIR and UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Modification of SPCEs with SUWO nanostructures via the drop-casting method clearly reduced the R value of the electrodes, lowered the ∆Ep and enhanced the DA oxidation current due to high electrocatalytic activity. As a result, SUWO/SPCEs enabled highly sensitive non-enzymatic detection of DA (LOD: 51.4 nM and sensitivity: 127 µA mM cm) and UA (LOD: 253 nM and sensitivity: 55.9 µA mM cm) at low concentration. Lastly, SUWO/SPCEs were tested with synthetic urine, in which acceptable recoveries for both molecules (94.02-105.8%) were obtained. Given the high selectivity, the sensor has the potential to be used for highly sensitive simultaneous detection of DA and UA in real biological samples.

Dual-band electrochromic devices capable of the spectral-selective modulation of visible (VIS) light and near-infrared (NIR) can notably reduce the energy consumption of buildings and improve the occupants' visual and thermal comfort. However, the low optical modulation and poor durability of these devices severely limit its practical applications. Herein, we demonstrate an efficient and flexible bifunctional dual-band electrochromic device which not only shows excellent spectral-selective electrochromic performance with a high optical modulation and a long cycle life, but also displays a high capacitance and a high energy recycling efficiency of 51.

The crystal phase of pseudocapacitive materials significantly influences charge storage kinetics and capacitance; yet, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study focuses on tungsten oxide (WO), a material exhibiting multiple crystal phases with potential for energy storage. Despite extensive research on WO, the impact of different crystal structures on charge storage properties remains largely unexplored.

Bioinspired light-driven ion transport has shown great potential in solar energy harvesting. To achieve efficiencies comparable to biological counterparts, effective coregulation of permselectivity and photoresponsivity is crucial. Herein, vacancy engineering has been proven to be a powerful strategy for considerably increasing the efficiency of light-driven ion transport in tungsten oxide (WO) nanofluidic membranes by enhancing the negative surface charges and narrowing bandgaps.

Triethylamine, an extensively used material in industrial organic synthesis, is hazardous to the human respiratory and nervous systems, but its accurate detection and prediction has been a long-standing challenge. Herein, a machine learning-motivated chemiresistive sensor that can predict ppm-level triethylamine is designed. The zero-dimensional (0D) bismuth vanadate (BiVO) nanoparticles were anchored on the surface of three-dimensional (3D) tungsten oxide (WO) architectures to form hierarchical BiVO/WO heterostructures, which demonstrates remarkable triethylamine-sensing performance such as high response of 21 (4 times higher than pristine WO) at optimal temperature of 190 °C, low detection limit of 57 ppb, long-term stability, reproducibility and good anti-interference property.
