Owing to the mixed electron/hole and ion transport in aqueous environment, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate)-based organic electrochemical transistor has been regarded as one of most promising device platforms for bioelectronics. Nonetheless, there exist very few in-depth studies on how intrinsic channel material properties affect their performance long-term stability environments. Herein, we investigated correlation among film microstructural crystallinity/composition,...
Flexible organic optoelectronic devices simultaneously targeting mechanical conformability and fast responsivity in the near-infrared (IR) region are a prerequisite to expand capabilities of practical optical science engineering for on-skin applications. Here, an ultraflexible near-IR responsive skin-conformal photoplethysmogram sensor based on bulk heterojunction photovoltaic active layer containing regioregular polyindacenodithiophene-pyridyl[2,1,3]thiadiazole-cyclopentadithiophene (PIPCP)...
Despite intensive research on photochemical activation of sol–gel metal oxide materials, the relatively long processing time and lack deep understanding underlying chemical courses have limited their broader impact diverse materials applications such as thin‐film electronics, photovoltaics, catalysts.

In the present study, a novel polar-solvent vapor annealing (PSVA) was used to induce significant structural rearrangement in poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) films order improve their electrical conductivity and work function. The effects of on PEDOT:PSS were systematically compared with those conventional solvent additive method (SAM) investigated detail by analyzing changes conductivity, morphology, top bottom surface composition, conformational PEDOT...
ABSTRACT Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are considered to be a potentially useful tool for controlling various pathogens. However, there concerns about the release of AgNPs into environmental media, as they may generate adverse human health and ecological effects. In this study, we developed evaluated novel micrometer-sized magnetic hybrid colloid (MHC) decorated with variously sized (AgNP-MHCs). After being applied disinfection, these particles can easily recovered from media using their...
