We enclose octahedral silver nanocrystals (Ag NCs) in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to make mesoscopic constructs O(h)-nano-Ag⊂MOF which the interface between Ag and MOF is pristine ordered (crystalline) oriented on NCs. This achieved by atomic layer deposition of aluminum oxide NCs addition a tetra-topic porphyrin-based linker, 4,4',4″,4‴-(porphyrin-5,10,15,20-tetrayl)tetrabenzoic acid (H4TCPP), react with alumina [Al2(OH)2TCPP] enclosures around Alumina thickness precisely controlled...
The metallic phase of 1T-MoS2 nanoflowers (NFs) and the semiconducting 2H-MoS2 NFs were prepared by a facile solvothermal combustion method. antibacterial activities, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, light-driven mechanism demonstrated with bacterium Escherichia coli (E. coli) under light irradiation. Results bacterial growth curve ROS generation analyses revealed higher activity compared to NFs. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy that superoxide anion radical •O2–...
Abstract Recent development of molecular imaging probes for fluorescence-guided surgery has shown great progresses determining tumor margin to execute the tissue resection. Here we synthesize fluorescent gold nanoparticles conjugated with diatrizoic acid and nucleolin-targeted AS1411 aptamer. The nanoparticle conjugates exhibit high water-solubility, good biocompatibility, visible fluorescence strong X-ray attenuation computed tomography (CT) contrast enhancement. are applied as a agent...
Elucidating the metabolic mechanism of gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) in bacteria will play a pivotal role bacterial detection and inhibition. A facile method to investigate AuNCs is demonstrated this work. The cysteine-conjugated (Cys-AuNCs) were successfully prepared with orange-red fluorescence, high water solubility, superior biocompatibility by one-pot green synthesis determine metabolism. suggested process was that Cys-AuNCs metabolized Escherichia coli, as verified through decrease...
Photocatalytic water splitting is a key technology for long-term hydrogen evolution with low environmental impact.
Abstract Single‐atom catalysts (SAs) with the maximum atom utilization and breakthrough activities toward hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) have attracted considerable research interests. Uncovering nature of single‐atom metal centers under operating electrochemical condition is highly significant for improving their catalytic performance, yet poorly understood in most studies. Herein, Pt single atoms anchoring on nitrogen–carbon substrate (Pt SA /N–C) as a model system are utilized to...
Metal nanoclusters (NCs) with unique chemical and physical properties have been extensively demonstrated to be emerging nanoantibiotics for fighting bacterial infections. Understanding the antibacterial mechanisms of metal is important evaluating their clinical applications as nanoantibiotics. To understand mechanism, gold (AuNCs) were applied an agent real-time observations interactions bacteria by in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In this work, a surface ligand...
The crystal phase of a nanomaterial can affect its biochemical properties and, as result, greatly influence application performance. Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), group nanomaterials with the ability to crystallize into distinct phases, show electronic structures which are believed be material-dependent. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) phases 1T and 2H, in each these MoS2 shows completely different properties. Although several have been extensively reported, particularly role potent...
Global warming and climate change are among the most immediate challenges confronting humans in 21st century. Artificial photosynthesis represents a promising approach to mitigating environmental crisis. Recently, people demonstrated that interfacing semiconductor, polymer, or metal-based nanomaterials with specific bacteria can generate built-in artificial photosynthetic systems, enabling solar-to-fuel conversion by forming basic unit from network of light-harvesting receptors, molecular...
Abstract A large number of highly active Ru‐based electrocatalysts have been reported for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The utilization synergistic effects promoting HER performance remains inadequate, especially corresponding potential‐driven reactive sites at atomic level. Herein, a Co‐substituted RuRu 2 P structure is employed as model system to reveal effect on and realize during HER. Optimized @ Co 0.6 exhibits superior catalytic in alkaline electrolytes, achieving low...
Abstract Nowadays, high‐valent Cu species (i.e., δ + ) are clarified to enhance multi‐carbon production in electrochemical CO 2 reduction reaction (CO RR). Nonetheless, the inconsistent average valence states reported significantly govern product profile of RR, which may lead misunderstanding enhanced mechanism for and results ambiguous roles species. Dynamic during RR leads erratic challenges determination. Herein, an alternative descriptor (sub)surface oxygen, (sub)surface‐oxygenated...
