Although Ag NPs are known for their excellent plasmonic properties, their susceptibility to oxidation in ambient conditions significantly reduces SERS activity. To overcome this, a femtosecond laser-assisted single-step novel approach is developed for synthesizing hybrid Ag-hBN nanocomposites via ablating Ag target in a solution of exfoliated hBN nanosheets, forming uniformly embedded Ag NPs on hBN nanosheets. The morphological characteristics and elemental compositions were validated by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). TEM analysis revealed that Ag NPs averaged 15 nm in size, while hBN nanosheets had lateral dimensions of approximately 250 nm. The SERS activity of the prepared nanocomposites was investigated using dye and explosive molecules, achieving detection sensitivities of 1 μM and 100 μM, respectively, with high reproducibility. These detection sensitivities are significant as they demonstrate the potential of the Ag-hBN nanocomposites for sensitive and reliable detection of trace amounts of analytes. Notably, the Ag-hBN nanocomposites showed enhanced SERS activity compared to pure Ag NPs, with a 2.5-fold improvement for Nile blue, 3.6-fold for methylene blue, and 2.4-fold for RDX. The current study also demonstrates that hBN prevents Ag NPs’ oxidation and preserves the SERS functionality even at elevated temperatures. Furthermore, the NLO properties of the nanocomposites were investigated using the standard Z-scan technique, revealing two-photon and three-photon absorption coefficients of 3 × 10<sup>−4</sup> cm/GW and 6.5 × 10<sup>−5</sup> cm<sup>3</sup>/GW<sup>2</sup>, respectively.

The composite was prepared via a co-precipitation method followed by calcination, which facilitated the uniform dispersion of TiO<sub>2</sub> quantum dots within the bentonite matrix. The resulting material exhibited a high specific surface area of 205.45 m<sup>2</sup>/g and an optimized band gap of 3.15 eV, making it suitable for visible light photocatalysis. The photocatalytic efficiency of Bent/TQ was evaluated under both xenon lamp irradiation and natural sunlight. The composite demonstrated a significant degradation rate constant of 23.35 × 10⁻³ s⁻<sup>1</sup>, which is comparable to that of pure TiO<sub>2</sub> quantum dots (28.86 × 10⁻³ s⁻<sup>1</sup>). Mechanistic studies revealed that the primary active species responsible for the degradation were hydroxyl radicals (•OH), generated through the interaction of photogenerated electron-hole pairs with H<sub>2</sub>O molecules and molecular oxygen. Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) analyses were employed to assess the mineralization efficiency of the composite. The Bent/TQ catalyst achieved a COD removal efficiency of 84.5 % and a TOC reduction of 76.2 % after 240 min of irradiation under natural sunlight. Reusability tests indicated that the photocatalyst retained approximately 80 % of its original efficiency after seven consecutive cycles, though a slight decline was observed due to particle agglomeration under prolonged light exposure. The economic analysis suggested that the use of Bent/TQ nanocomposites could reduce operational costs by 29.12 % compared to conventional TiO<sub>2</sub>-based systems, making it a cost-effective solution for large-scale wastewater treatment.
