Functionalized MoS₂ Nanoflowers with Excellent Near-Infrared Photothermal Activities for Scavenging of Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria.

ABSTRACT: Presently, antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) have been commonly found in environment, such as air, soil and lakes. Therefore, it is urgent and necessary to prepare antimicrobial agents with excellent anti-antibiotic resistant bacteria. In our research, poly-ethylene glycol functionalized molybdenum disulfide nanoflowers (PEG-MoS₂ NFs) were synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method. As-prepared PEG-MoS₂ NFs displayed excellent photothermal conversion efficiency (30.6%) and photothermal stability. Under 808 nm NIR laser irradiation for 10 min, the inhibition rate of tetracycline-resistant Bacillus tropicalis and Stenotrophomonas malphilia reached more than 95% at the concentration of 50 μg/mL. More interestingly, the photothermal effect of PEG-MoS₂ NFs could accelerate the oxidation of glutathione, resulting in the rapid death of bacteria. A functionalized PEG-MoS₂ NFs photothermal anti-antibiotic resistant system was constructed successfully.

Near Infrared Random Lasing in Multilayer MoS2.

Project description:We demonstrated room temperature near infrared (NIR) region random lasing (RL) (800-950 nm), with a threshold of nearly 500 μW, in ∼200 nm thick MoS2/Au nanoparticles (NPs)/ZnO heterostructures using photoluminescence spectroscopy. The RL in the above system arises mainly due to the following three reasons: (1) enhanced multiple scattering because of Au/ZnO disordered structure, (2) exciton-plasmon coupling because of Au NPs, and (3) enhanced charge transfer from ZnO to thick MoS2 flakes. RL has recently attracted tremendous interest because of its wide applications in the field of telecommunication, spectroscopy, and specifically in biomedical tissue imaging. This work provides new dimensions toward realization of low power on-chip NIR random lasers made up of biocompatible materials.

Enhanced sunlight driven photocatalytic activity of In2S3 nanosheets functionalized MoS2 nanoflowers heterostructures.

Project description:Visible light-sensitive 2D-layered based photocatalytic systems have been proven one of the effective recent trends. We report the preparation of a 2D-layered based In2S3-MoS2 nanohybrid system through a facile hydrothermal method, capable of efficiently degrading of organic contaminants with remarkable efficiency. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results inferred the attachment of 2D-layered In2S3 sheets with the MoS2 nanoflakes. Field emission SEM studies with chemical mapping confirm the uniform distribution of Mo, In, and S atoms in the heterostructure, affirming sample uniformity. X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy results confirm the appearance of 2H-MoS2 and β-In2S3 in the grown heterostructures. UV-DRS results reveal a significant improvement in the optical absorbance and significant bandgap narrowing (0.43 eV) in In2S3-MoS2 nanohybrid compared to pristine In2S3 nanosheets in the visible region. The effective bandgap narrowing facilitates the charge transfer between MoS2 and In2S3 and remarkably improves the synergistic effect. Effective bandgap engineering and improved optical absorption of In2S3-MoS2 nanohybrids are favorable for enhancing their charge separation and photocatalytic ability. The photocatalytic decomposition efficiency of the pristine In2S3 nanosheets and In2S3-MoS2 nanohybrids sample is determined by the decomposing of methylene blue and oxytetracycline molecules under natural sunlight. The optimized In2S3-MoS2 nanohybrids can decompose 97.67% of MB and 76.3% of OTC-HCl molecules solution in 8 min and 40 min of exposure of sunlight respectively. 2D-layered In2S3-MoS2 nanohybrids reveal the tremendous remediation performance towards chemical contaminations and pharmaceutical waste, which indicates their applicability in industrial and practical applications.

Plasmonic-tape-attached multilayered MoS2 film for near-infrared photodetection.

Project description:Molybdenum disulfide has been intensively studied as a promising material for photodetector applications because of its excellent electrical and optical properties. We report a multilayer MoS2 film attached with a plasmonic tape for near-infrared (NIR) detection. MoS2 flakes are chemically exfoliated and transferred onto a polymer substrate, and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) dewetted thermally on a substrate are transferred onto a Scotch tape. The Scotch tape with AgNPs is attached directly and simply onto the MoS2 flakes. Consequently, the NIR photoresponse of the MoS2 device is critically enhanced. The proposed tape transfer method enables the formation of plasmonic structures on arbitrary substrates, such as a polymer substrate, without requiring a high-temperature process. The performance of AgNPs-MoS2 photodetectors is approximately four times higher than that of bare MoS2 devices.

Novel near-infrared emission from crystal defects in MoS2 multilayer flakes.

Project description:The structural defects in two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides, including point defects, dislocations and grain boundaries, are scarcely considered regarding their potential to manipulate the electrical and optical properties of this class of materials, notwithstanding the significant advances already made. Indeed, impurities and vacancies may influence the exciton population, create disorder-induced localization, as well as modify the electrical behaviour of the material. Here we report on the experimental evidence, confirmed by ab initio calculations, that sulfur vacancies give rise to a novel near-infrared emission peak around 0.75 eV in exfoliated MoS2 flakes. In addition, we demonstrate an excess of sulfur vacancies at the flake's edges by means of cathodoluminescence mapping, aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy imaging and electron energy loss analyses. Moreover, we show that ripplocations, extended line defects peculiar to this material, broaden and redshift the MoS2 indirect bandgap emission.

Plasmonic Ag@Cu2O core-shell nanostructures exhibiting near-infrared photothermal effect.

Project description:This work was devoted to the investigation of the optical properties, structural characterization, and photothermal conversion performance of Ag@Cu2O nanostructures. The selection of anisotropic silver core, specifically Ag nanocubes, was driven by the possibility to tune LSPR across a broader range of the electromagnetic spectrum. The thickness of the Cu2O shell was intentionally changed through the variation in the Cu salt to the metal core nanoparticles ratios. The LSPRs of Ag(nanocube)@Cu2O core-shell nanoparticles can be fine-tuned to the spectral region to become resonant with the excitation wavelengths of 808 nm NIR laser. Due to the high refractive index of the deposited Cu2O, the redshifts of the plasmon band wavelength in the extinction spectra were observed. Consequently, the photothermal activities of the Ag(nanocube)@Cu2O core-shell NPs have been controlled by the shell thickness at the nanoscale. Ag@Cu2O nanoparticles with thickest shell (∼70 nm) exhibit the most efficient NIR photothermal effect under the irradiation of 808 nm laser at ambient conditions. Results of this work demonstrate that Ag@Cu2O hetero-nanostructures may be optimized and used for the efficient transformation of light into other forms of energy, specifically heat.

Spatially Bandgap-Graded MoS2(1-x)Se2x Homojunctions for Self-Powered Visible-Near-Infrared Phototransistors.

Project description:Ternary transition metal dichalcogenide alloys with spatially graded bandgaps are an emerging class of two-dimensional materials with unique features, which opens up new potential for device applications. Here, visible-near-infrared and self-powered phototransistors based on spatially bandgap-graded MoS2(1-x)Se2x alloys, synthesized by a simple and controllable chemical solution deposition method, are reported. The graded bandgaps, arising from the spatial grading of Se composition and thickness within a single domain, are tuned from 1.83 to 1.73 eV, leading to the formation of a homojunction with a built-in electric field. Consequently, a strong and sensitive gate-modulated photovoltaic effect is demonstrated, enabling the homojunction phototransistors at zero bias to deliver a photoresponsivity of 311 mA W-1, a specific detectivity up to ~ 1011 Jones, and an on/off ratio up to ~ 104. Remarkably, when illuminated by the lights ranging from 405 to 808 nm, the biased devices yield a champion photoresponsivity of 191.5 A W-1, a specific detectivity up to ~ 1012 Jones, a photoconductive gain of 106-107, and a photoresponsive time in the order of ~ 50 ms. These results provide a simple and competitive solution to the bandgap engineering of two-dimensional materials for device applications without the need for p-n junctions.

Visible and Near-Infrared Photothermal Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Gaseous CO2 over Nanostructured Pd@Nb2O5.

Project description:The reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reaction driven by Nb2O5 nanorod-supported Pd nanocrystals without external heating using visible and near infrared (NIR) light is demonstrated. By measuring the dependence of the RWGS reaction rates on the intensity and spectral power distribution of filtered light incident onto the nanostructured Pd@Nb2O5 catalyst, it is determined that the RWGS reaction is activated photothermally. That is the RWGS reaction is initiated by heat generated from thermalization of charge carriers in the Pd nanocrystals that are excited by interband and intraband absorption of visible and NIR light. Taking advantage of this photothermal effect, a visible and NIR responsive Pd@Nb2O5 hybrid catalyst that efficiently hydrogenates CO2 to CO at an impressive rate as high as 1.8 mmol gcat-1 h-1 is developed. The mechanism of this photothermal reaction involves H2 dissociation on Pd nanocrystals and subsequent spillover of H to the Nb2O5 nanorods whereupon adsorbed CO2 is hydrogenated to CO. This work represents a significant enhancement in our understanding of the underlying mechanism of photothermally driven CO2 reduction and will help guide the way toward the development of highly efficient catalysts that exploit the full solar spectrum to convert gas-phase CO2 to valuable chemicals and fuels.

Dandelion-Like CuCo2O4@ NiMn LDH Core/Shell Nanoflowers for Excellent Battery-Type Supercapacitor.

Project description:Dandelion-like CuCo2O4 nanoflowers (CCO NFs) with ultrathin NiMn layered double hydroxide (LDH) shells were fabricated via a two-step hydrothermal method. The prepared CuCo2O4@NiMn LDH core/shell nanoflowers (CCO@NM LDH NFs) possessed a high specific surface area (~181 m2·g-1) with an average pore size of ~256 nm. Herein, the CCO@NM LDH NFs exhibited the typical battery-type electrode material with a specific capacity of 2156.53 F·g-1 at a current density of 1 A·g-1. With the increase in current density, the rate capability retention was 68.3% at a current density of 10 A·g-1. In particular, the 94.6% capacity of CCO@NM LDH NFs remains after 2500 cycles at 5 A·g-1. An asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) with CCO@NM LDH NFs//activated carbon (AC) demonstrates a remarkable capacitance of 303.11 F·g-1 at 1 A·g-1 with excellent cycling stability. The coupling and synergistic effects of multi-valence transition metals provide a convenient channel for the electrochemical process, which is beneficial to spread widely within the realm of electrochemical energy storage.
