While modifying the emission wavelength of Cr³⁺ can be achieved by adjusting its coordination environment, the parity-forbidden d-d transition presents a challenge by limiting absorption and resulting in a low external quantum efficiency (EQE) in Cr³⁺-doped phosphors. Moreover, longer emission wavelengths often coincide with reduced thermal stability. To address these issues, energy transfer from a sensitizer to Cr³⁺ has been proposed as a strategy to enhance both EQE and thermal stability of NIR emission. The selection of an appropriate host structure is crucial. In this study, a garnet structure, Ca₂LuMgScSi₃O₁₂, was identified as a promising candidate for achieving efficient broadband NIR emission under blue light excitation. Specifically, Ca₂LuMgScSi₃O₁₂:Ce³⁺ exhibited a yellow emission with exceptional internal quantum efficiency and EQE of up to 94.6% and 64.8%, respectively. By leveraging efficient energy transfer from Ce³⁺ to Cr³⁺, the Ca₂LuMgScSi₃-O₁₂:Ce³⁺,Cr³⁺ phosphors exhibited tunable yellow to NIR emission. Notable, the highest EQE recorded for Ca₂LuMgScSi₃O₁₂:Ce³⁺,Cr³⁺ was 56.9%, significantly surpassing that of the Cr³⁺ single-doped counterpart. Furthermore, the co-doped phosphor demonstrated thermal stability comparable to that of Ce³⁺ single-doped phosphor. Of particular significance, the developed prototype pc-LED emitted a combination of broadband white and NIR light, demonstrating potential applications in solar-like lighting, food analysis, and biomedical imaging.</p><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":773,"journal":{"name":"Science China Materials","volume":"67 12","pages":"3932 - 3940"},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142714361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs), as a category of eco-friendly solvents, exhibit low vapor pressure, good conductivity, biodegradability, non-flammability, and affordability. Eutectogels using DESs as a solvent not only retain the mechanical strength and functionality of hydrogel systems but also circumvent the limitations imposed by water evaporation in conventional hydrogels, which presents a promising direction and material framework for more personalized and efficacious wound management strategies. In this study, we have successfully synthesized a novel ternary deep eutectic solvent composed of glycerol, zinc chloride, and choline chloride, and subsequently incorporated polymerizable double bonds to fabricate an eco-friendly, antimicrobial-sensing eutectogel. This gel possesses a unique combination of high mechanical strength, universal adhesion capabilities, persistent bactericidal activity, superior sensing properties, and excellent biocompatibility. Its potential application as a wound dressing was explored, with results demonstrating the ability of eutectogel to accelerate wound healing and prevent bacterial colonization at the wound site.

Exposure to hydrogen poses a significant threat to the mechanical integrity of such materials. This review article briefly discusses the fundamentals of hydrogen embrittlement, including its mechanisms and the effects of various factors, such as chemical composition and environmental conditions. Several heat treatments have been developed to eliminate the risk of hydrogen embrittlement. Among various suggested heat treatments, the retrogression-reaging (RRA) treatment has proven effective in optimizing the balance between mechanical properties and resistance to hydrogen embrittlement. This review highlights the role of RRA treatment in modifying the microstructure of Al-Zn-Mg alloys to enhance their ability to resist hydrogen embrittlement, building on existing literature. An interesting aspect explored in this article is the intricate relationship between pre-deformation and subsequent RRA treatment. Additionally, the review discusses the use of RRA as a post-weld heat treatment to mitigate the susceptibility of weldments to hydrogen embrittlement. A comprehensive exploration of these topics is beneficial for a thorough understanding of the multifaceted functions of RRA treatment. However, despite its advantages, the widespread adoption of RRA treatment in the industry is hindered by certain challenges. This review addresses these challenges, offering insights into the latest strategies to overcome them.\u0000</p><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":773,"journal":{"name":"Science China Materials","volume":"67 11","pages":"3468 - 3490"},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142540555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The emergence of flexible electronic devices has broken the limits of physical space, as they can be bent and twisted at will. However, this characteristic exacerbates unwanted coupling of their internal sensing elements, which can interfere with each other. At present, the solution to EMI is based on electromagnetic shielding (EMS), but this method alone cannot solve internal EMI of flexible sensor devices. In this study, the gallium-based liquid metal (LM) circuits are printed on the Ecoflex@Fe film to realize a stretchable film with both EMS and wave-absorbing functions, which is expected to simultaneously address the effects of internal and external EMI. The results show that the shielding efficiency of the electromagnetic wave shielding and absorbing (EWSA) film is as high as 54.5 dB on one side, while the reflection loss on the other side is as low as −43.5 dB. In addition, the LM-based EWSA film maintains positive wave-absorbing and EMS properties during stretching in different directions and it can also effectively avoid EMI after 1000 times of stretching. Overall, the LM-based EWSA film, which enables broadband EMS and wave-absorption, provides a solution for the development of next-generation flexible electronic skin that eliminates both internal and external EMI.\u0000</p><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":773,"journal":{"name":"Science China Materials","volume":"67 12","pages":"3976 - 3985"},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142714350","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
