Highly efficient and excitation tunable two-photon luminescence platform for targeted multi-color MDRB imaging using graphene oxide.

ABSTRACT: Multiple drug-resistance bacteria (MDRB) infection is one of the top three threats to human health according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Due to the large penetration depth and reduced photodamage, two-photon imaging is an highly promising technique for clinical MDRB diagnostics. Since most commercially available water-soluble organic dyes have low two-photon absorption cross-section and rapid photobleaching tendency, their applications in two-photon imaging is highly limited. Driven by the need, in this article we report extremely high two-photon absorption from aptamer conjugated graphene oxide (σ₂PA = 50800 GM) which can be used for highly efficient two-photon fluorescent probe for MDRB imaging. Reported experimental data show that two-photon photoluminescence imaging color, as well as luminescence peak position can be tuned from deep blue to red, just by varying the excitation wavelength without changing its chemical composition and size. We have demonstrated that graphene oxide (GO) based two-photon fluorescence probe is capable of imaging of multiple antibiotics resistance MRSA in the first and second biological transparency windows using 760-1120 nm wavelength range.

Highly efficient perovskite solar cells with tunable structural color.

Project description:The performance of perovskite solar cells has been progressing over the past few years and efficiency is likely to continue to increase. However, a negative aspect for the integration of perovskite solar cells in the built environment is that the color gamut available in these materials is very limited and does not cover the green-to-blue region of the visible spectrum, which has been a big selling point for organic photovoltaics. Here, we integrate a porous photonic crystal (PC) scaffold within the photoactive layer of an opaque perovskite solar cell following a bottom-up approach employing inexpensive and scalable liquid processing techniques. The photovoltaic devices presented herein show high efficiency with tunable color across the visible spectrum. This now imbues the perovskite solar cells with highly desirable properties for cladding in the built environment and encourages design of sustainable colorful buildings and iridescent electric vehicles as future power generation sources.

Non-iridescent transmissive structural color filter featuring highly efficient transmission and high excitation purity.

Project description:Nanostructure based color filtering has been considered an attractive replacement for current colorant pigmentation in the display technologies, in view of its increased efficiencies, ease of fabrication and eco-friendliness. For such structural filtering, iridescence relevant to its angular dependency, which poses a detrimental barrier to the practical development of high performance display and sensing devices, should be mitigated. We report on a non-iridescent transmissive structural color filter, fabricated in a large area of 76.2 × 25.4 mm(2), taking advantage of a stack of three etalon resonators in dielectric films based on a high-index cavity in amorphous silicon. The proposed filter features a high transmission above 80%, a high excitation purity of 0.93 and non-iridescence over a range of 160°, exhibiting no significant change in the center wavelength, dominant wavelength and excitation purity, which implies no change in hue and saturation of the output color. The proposed structure may find its potential applications to large-scale display and imaging sensor systems.

Multi-color tunable circularly polarized luminescence in one single AIE system.

Project description:Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) materials with a large luminescence dissymmetry factor (g lum) and multi-color properties are very attractive. While multi-color tunable CPL can be realized by different organic dyes, the challenge of realizing both a higher g lum and multiple colors using a single component remains. Here, we design an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorophore, which is a pyridine functionalized cyanostilbene attached to a chiral unit, and realize multi-color tunable CPL with a high g lum. The compound can self-assemble into a nanohelix and form both gel and xerogel films, exhibiting blue CPL with large g lum values of -3.0 × 10-2 and -1.7 × 10-2, respectively. With the assistance of pyridine protonation, the xerogel films exhibit red-shifted CPL signals from 480 nm to 530 nm, covering from blue via green and yellow to orange. Additionally, the g lum remains constant during the process. This work paves a simple and convenient way to construct multi-color tunable CPL materials using a single molecule.

Highly stable color-tunable organic long-persistent luminescence from a single-component exciplex copolymer for <i>in vitro</i> antibacterial.

Project description:Developing exciplex-based organic long-persistent luminescence (OLPL) materials with high stability is very important but remains a formidable challenge in a single-component system. Here, we report a facile strategy to achieve highly stable OLPL in an amorphous exciplex copolymer system via through-space charge transfer (TSCT). The copolymer composed of electron donor and acceptor units can not only exhibit effective TSCT for intra/intermolecular exciplex emission but also construct a rigid environment to isolate oxygen and suppress non-radiative decay, thereby enabling stable exciplex-based OLPL emission with color-tunable feature for more than 100 h under ambient conditions. These single-component OLPL copolymers demonstrate robust antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli under visible light irradiation. These results provide a solid example to exploit highly stable exciplex-based OLPL in polymers, shedding light on how the TSCT mechanism may potentially contribute to OLPL in a single-component molecular system and broadening the scope of OLPL applications.

Breaking the 1,2-HOPO barrier with a cyclen backbone for more efficient sensitization of Eu(iii) luminescence and unprecedented two-photon excitation properties.

Project description:A cyclen backbone was utilized to study the effect of backbone rigidity on Eu(iii) luminescence sensitization using a 1,2-HOPO derivative and 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetonate (TTA) as chromophores. The restriction of molecular movement of Eu-Cy-HOPO brought about by the increased rigidity provided a tightly packed coordination environment for the octadentate Eu(iii) center which resulted in the highest overall quantum yield (30.2%) and sensitization efficiency (64.6%) among 1,2-HOPO sensitized Eu(iii) complexes. Eu-Cy-HOPO is also the first 1,2-HOPO-based lanthanide complex to emit Eu(iii) luminescence under two-photon excitation.

Efficient single photon source based on ?-fibre-coupled tunable microcavity.

Project description:Efficient and fast on-demand single photon sources have been sought after as critical components of quantum information science. We report an efficient and tunable single photon source based on an InAs quantum dot (QD) embedded in a photonic crystal cavity coupled with a highly curved ?-fibre. Exploiting evanescent coupling between the ?-fibre and the cavity, a high collection efficiency of 23% and Purcell-enhanced spontaneous emissions are observed. In our scheme, the spectral position of a resonance can be tuned by as much as 1.5 nm by adjusting the contact position of the ?-fibre, which increases the spectral coupling probability between the QD and the cavity mode. Taking advantage of the high photon count rate and the tunability, the collection efficiencies and the decay rates are systematically investigated as a function of the QD-cavity detuning.

Modulating Emission of Boric Acid into Highly Efficient and Color-Tunable Afterglow via Dehydration-Induced Through-Space Conjugation.

Project description:Inorganic boric acid (BA) is generally not considered an efficient afterglow material, and several groups have reported its extremely weak room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) in the blue spectral region. It is discovered that heat treatment of BA results in increased afterglow intensity (27-fold increase) and prolonged emission lifetime (from 0.83 to 1.59 s), attributed to enhanced through-space conjugation (TSC) of BA. The afterglow intensity of BA can be increased further (≈415 folds) by introducing p-hydroxybenzoic acid (PHA), which contains a conjugated molecular motif, to further promote the TSC of the BA system. This combination results in the production of afterglow materials with a photoluminescence quantum yield of 83.8% and an emission lifetime of 2.01 s. In addition, a tunable multicolor afterglow in the 420-490 nm range is achieved owing to the enhancement of the RTP and thermally activated delayed fluorescence of PHA, where BA exerts a confinement effect on the guest molecules. Thus, this study demonstrates promising afterglow materials produced from extremely abundant and simple precursor materials for various applications.

Highly Efficient Processing of Multi-photon States.

Project description:How to implement multi-qubit gates is an important problem in quantum information processing. Based on cross phase modulation, we present an approach to realizing a family of multi-qubit gates that deterministically operate on single photons as the qubits. A general n-qubit unitary operation is a typical example of these gates. The approach greatly relax the requirement on the resources, such as the ancilla photons and coherent beams, as well as the number of operations on the qubits. The improvement in this framework may facilitate large scale quantum information processing.

Highly tunable aptasensing microarrays with graphene oxide multilayers.

Project description:A highly tunable layer-by-layer (LbL)-assembled graphene oxide (GO) array has been devised for high-throughput multiplex protein sensing. In this array, the fluorescence of different target-bound aptamers labeled with dye is efficiently quenched by GO through fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), and simultaneous multiplex target detection is performed by recovering the quenched fluorescence caused by specific binding between an aptamer and a protein. Thin GO films consisting of 10 bilayers displayed a high quenching ability, yielding over 85% fluorescence quenching with the addition of a 2 ?M dye-labeled aptamer. The limit for human thrombin detection in the 6- and 10-bilayered GO array is estimated to be 0.1 and 0.001 nM, respectively, indicating highly tunable nature of LbL assembled GO multilayers in controlling the sensitivity of graphene-based FRET aptasensor. Furthermore, the GO chip could be reused up to four times simply by cleaning it with distilled water.

Fluorescence Spectral Properties of 2,5-Diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole with Two-Color Two-Photon Excitation.

Project description:We observed fluorescence emission from 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (PPD) resulting from two-photon excitation with two different wavelengths near 380 and 760 nm. For this two-color two-photon (2C2P) excitation the emission spectra and intensity decays were the same as observed with single-photon excitation with an equivalent energy at 250 nm. The two-color two-photon-induced emission was observed when the PPD sample was illuminated with both wavelengths, but only when the picosecond laser pulses were spatially and temporally overlapped. The signal was about 70-fold and 1000-fold less for illumination at 380 or 760 nm alone, respectively. When illuminated with both wavelengths, the emission intensity of PPD depended quadratically on the total illumination power, when both beams were simultaneously attenuated to the same extent, indicating two-photon excitation. When the intensity at one wavelength was attenuated, the signal depended linearly on the power at each wavelength, indicating the participation of one-photon at each wavelength to the excitation process. For 2C2P excitation the time-zero anisotropy was larger than possible for single-photon excitation and was consistent with collinear electronic transitions for both wavelengths. The intensity depended on the polarization of each beam in a manner consistent with collinear transitions. These results demonstrate that two-color two-photon excitation can be readily observed with modern laser sources. This phenomenon can have numerous applications in the chemical and biomedical sciences, as a method for spatial localization of the measured volume.
