The combination of sensing invisible ultraviolet photons and infrared radiation can significantly enhance target recognition by offsetting their own limit in a short sensing range and poor spatial resolution. However, the difference in their wavelength sets unique requirements for sensing materials and devices, which makes it hard to establish their implementation in a single detector. In this work, we present the design of a single detector with CHNHPbCl (MAPbCl) for distinguishing ultraviolet and IR signals by switching its operating mode in the photo-/thermo-electric effect. The large optical band gap of ∼3.2 eV in MAPbCl ensures the response toward an ultraviolet photon, while its efficient thermoelectric effect allows the sensing of an IR signal. As a result, the detector exhibits a specific detectivity of 4.5 × 10 Jones for 395 nm ultraviolet photons under 0 V, while under the working voltage of 2.5 V, it demonstrates a superior temperature coefficient of resistance of -3.7% K, a specific detectivity of 4.8 × 10 Jones, and a limit of detection of 0.58 mW/cm for 4 μm photons. The functionality of the switching response to ultraviolet or IR photons by working voltage allows background subtraction and enhances the target discrimination in the imaging.

Background: Complex craniofacial trauma is defined as those traumatic injuries that are not responding to initial treatment and may involve chronic infection, tissue exposure, and soft tissue contusions. Typical reconstruction using a Y-shaped microvascular venous anastomotic free flap is labor intensive. Although free flap grafts have been used in many applications, their use for combined microvascular anastomotic therapy remains an unexplored but attractive possibility.

Hydrogen production via electrocatalytic water splitting has garnered significant attention, due to the growing demand for clean and renewable energy. However, achieving low overpotential and long-term stability of water splitting catalysts at high current densities remains a major challenge. Herein, a CoP@CoNi layered double hydroxide (LDH) electrode was synthesized via a two-step electrodeposition process, demonstrating oxygen evolution reaction, with an overpotential (ƞ) of 373 mV and a Tafel slope of 64.

NaV(PO), based on multi-electron reactions between V/V/V, is a promising cathode material for SIBs. However, its practical application is hampered by the inferior conductivity, large barrier of V/V, and stepwise phase transition. Herein, these issues are addressed by constructing a medium-entropy material (NaVTiAlCrMnNi(PO), ME-NVP) with strong ME─O bond and highly occupied Na2 sites.
