A well-defined method of cleaning, surface modification, and surface functionalization of microlithographically-fabricated biochips composed of heterogeneous, abio surfaces (gold and glass) is presented for the reproducible adhesion of responsive hydrogels. The method uses cleaning approaches adapted from the semiconductor electronics industry and combines these with reactive organosilane chemistry to achieve the specific (covalent) attachment of UV cross-linked, poly(HEMA-<i>co</i>-PEGMA-<i>co</i>-HMMA)-based hydrogels. Specific attachment of hydrogels via acryloyl-poly(ethylene glycol)-3500 n-hydroxysuccinimide (APNHS)-functionalized surfaces and subsequent hydrogel hydration resulted in the strongest adhesive force as determined by centrifugal adhesion testing. Comparison with substrates functionalized via hydroxyl-poly(ethylene glycol)-3500 n-hydroxysuccinimide (PNHS) confirmed the superiority of adhesion involving covalent bonding (APNHS) (4.48 kPa) versus hydrogen bonding (PNHS) (1.29 kPa). Adhered, fully hydrated and dehydrated hydrogels are characterized by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) and their hydration kinetics determined using impedimetry at a rationalized frequency. Impedimetry confirmed that p(HEMA-<i>co</i>-PEGMA-<i>co</i>-HMMA) hydrogels have an equilibration time of ≈30 min, a diffusion-dependent rate coefficient <i>k<sub>1</sub></i> = 0.311 s<sup>−0.5</sup> and relaxation-dependent coefficient <i>k<sub>2</sub></i> = −0.022 s<sup>−1</sup>. Hydrogel swelling may be studied by impedimetry to fashion biomedical devices for co-joined, real-time biosensing with electro-stimulated drug delivery.</p>","PeriodicalId":100037,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Sensor Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/adsr.202300153","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141315513","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although organic luminophores have intrinsic advantages of flexibility and solution processability, they generally suffer from significant emission quenching at high temperatures due to thermally facilitated nonradiative decay. Herein, a heat-resistant blue emitter of C3 based on triarylphosphine oxide has been developed, due to the thermal population of the higher emissive state from its lowest excited state. Based on this, hybridization of C3 with a faster thermally-deactivated yellow dye of T4AC which exhibits a large Stokes shift enables blocking of energy transfer and independent thermal response of the two respective emitters. Thus, sensitive ratiometric film thermometers for high-temperature sensing can be constructed. The relative sensitivity (S<sub>r</sub>) reaches 1.27%°C<sup>−1</sup> at 128 °C and the temperature resolution is < 0.77 °C in a wide sensing range of 20–240°C.
