In particular, these nonconductive LMMs in aqueous solutions are discovered to turn into conducive materials with an impedance change of about 105 times. The present discovery is of fundamental and practical significance, and would open new venues in fields such as fluid mechanics, thermal science, flexible electronics, biomedicine, and so forth.Large-area horizontal-aligned ZnO nanotubes (ZNTs), TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs), TiO2-ZnO core-shell nanotubes (TZNTs) and ZnO-TiO2 core-shell nanotubes (ZTNTs) were successfully synthesized by electrospinning combined with pulsed-laser deposition. The morphology, structure, and composition of the samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra of these samples indicate that the addition of a TiO2 layer greatly decreases the recombination of photogenerated carriers in the heterojunction nanotubes. The photodetectors (PDs) were fabricated by assembling horizontally ordered nanotubes on the gold interdigital electrode, and their ultraviolet (UV) detection performances were compared. The test results at room temperature show that the PD with aligned ZTNTs have the best UV response and a short response recovery time. In addition, the performance of ZTNT PDs and TZNT PDs are further improved under heating. The photo/dark current ratio, responsivity (Rλ), detectivity (D*), and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of ZTNTs increased to 388, 450 uA·W-1, 1.1 × 1010 cm·Hz1/2·W-1, and 0.15%, respectively, under the condition of 365 nm UV radiation with a power density of 4.9 mW·cm-2 and a 1 V bias at 90 °C. The UV response mechanism and structural superiority of the horizontally ordered coaxial heteronanotube were also discussed. In addition, this work provides an important method for the design of other ordered nanomaterials and structures, which have a wide range of applications in the fields of sensors, transistors, transparent flexible electrodes, and other multifunctional devices.With the advent of the smart factory and the Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, organic photovoltaics (OPVs) gained attention because of their ability to provide indoor power generation as an off-grid power supply. To satisfy these applications, OPVs must be capable of power generation in both outdoor and indoor at the same time for developing environmentally independent devices. For high performances in indoor irradiation, a strategy that maximizes photon utilization is essential. In this study, graphene quantum dots (GQDs), which have unique emitting properties, are introduced into a ZnO layer for efficient photon utilization of nonfullerene-based OPVs under indoor irradiation. GQDs exhibit high absorption properties in the 350-550 nm region and strong emission properties in the visible region due to down-conversion from lattice vibration. Using these properties, GQDs provide directional photon energy transfer to the bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) layer because the optical properties overlap. Additionally, the GQD-doped ZnO layer enhances shunt resistance (RSh) and forms good interfacial contact with the BHJ layer that results in increased carrier dissociation and transportation. Consequently, the fabricated device based on P(Cl-Cl)(BDD = 0.2) and IT-4F introduces GQDs exhibiting a maximum power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 14.0% with a superior enhanced short circuit current density (JSC) and fill factor (FF). Furthermore, the fabricated device exhibited high PCEs of 19.6 and 17.2% under 1000 and 200 lux indoor irradiation of light emitting diode (LED) lamps, respectively.Luminescence Boltzmann thermometry is one of the most reliable techniques used to locally probe temperature in a contactless mode. However, to date, there is no report on cryogenic thermometers based on the highly sensitive and reliable Boltzmann-based 4T2 → 4A2/2E → 4A2 emission ratio of Cr3+. On the basis of structural information of the local HfO6 octahedral site we demonstrated the potential of the CaHfO3Cr3+ system by combining deep theoretical and experimental investigation. The material exhibits simultaneous emission from both the 2E and 4T2 excited states, following the Boltzmann law in a cryogenic temperature range of 40-150 K. The promising thermometric performance corroborates the potential of CaHfO3Cr3+ as a Boltzmann cryothermometer, being characterized by a high relative sensitivity (∼ 2%·K-1 at 40 K) and exceptional thermal resolution (0.045-0.77 K in the 40-150 K range). Moreover, by exploiting the flexibility of the 4T2-2E energy gap controlled by the crystal field of the local octahedral site, the design proposed herein could be expanded to develop new Cr3+-doped cryogenic thermometers.Transporting oil droplets is crucial for a wide range of industrial and biomedical applications but remains highly challenging due to the large contact angle hysteresis on most solid surfaces. A liquid-infused slippery surface has a low hysteresis contact angle and is a highly promising platform if sufficient wettability gradient can be created. Current strategies used to create wettability gradient typically rely on the engineering of the chemical composition or geometrical structure. However, these strategies are inefficient on a slippery surface because the infused liquid tends to conceal the gradient in the chemical composition and small-scale geometrical structure. Magnifying the structure, on the other hand, will significantly distort the surface topography, which is unwanted in practice. In this study, we address this challenge by introducing a field-induced wettability gradient on a flat slippery surface. By printing radial electrodes array, we can pattern the electric field, which induces gradient contact angles. SHP099 Theoretical analysis and experimental results reveal that the droplet transport behavior can be captured by a nondimensional electric Bond number. Our surface enables no-loss transport of various types of droplets, which we expect to find important applications such as heat transfer, anticontamination, microfluidics, and biochemical analysis.
