Carboxyl-functionalized poly(arylene ether nitrile)-based rare earth coordination polymer nanofibrous membrane for highly sensitive and selective sensing of Fe3+ ions

Two-dimensional bismuth oxyselenide quantum dots as nanosensors for selective metal ion detection over a wide dynamic range: sensing mechanism and selectivity

“…The surface area of the sensor materials, the crystallinity, and the surface defects can influence the movement of electrons of the sensor materials as well as the interfacial charge transfer between the sensor and the metal ions to be probed. 11–13…”

“…The surface area of the sensor materials, the crystallinity, and the surface defects can influence the movement of electrons of the sensor materials as well as the interfacial charge transfer between the sensor and the metal ions to be probed. [11][12][13] Low-dimensional materials are among the first choices for the design of nanosensors due to their unique properties derived from the quantum mechanical size effect. 14,15 Twodimensional nanomaterials are the perfect examples of such sensors.…”

Advances in Carbon-Based Resistance Strain Sensors

“…As essential modules for collecting information, sensors are an indispensable part of smart wearable systems. Sensors can be divided into physical sensors, chemical sensors, and biological sensors. − At present, strain sensors as a kind of physical sensors are primarily used to monitor human physiological signals and human limb rehabilitation in smart wearables. − The types of strain sensors include pressure, torsional, tensile, and bending strain sensors, and the strain sensors can be divided into capacitance-type, piezoelectric-type, and resistance-type based on their working principles. We mainly introduce the tensile resistance strain sensors (RSSs) in this work.…”

A Shish-Kebab Superstructure Film for Personal Radiative Cooling

“…With the aggravation of global warming, heat stress becomes an increasingly serious problem, which could cause physical discomfort to people, increase the risk of disease, and seriously threaten human health. , Rather than cooling the human body directly, buildings around people are cooled first in the traditional cooling process, which will inevitably generate energy waste. − Therefore, the concept of personal thermal management (PTM) has been proposed. − It focuses only on heating and cooling the human body and the local environment, thus reducing unnecessary energy consumption to the surrounding building. − In a normal environment, the body skin, which is approximately 34 °C, emits mid-infrared (MIR) radiation with a wavelength of 7 to 14 μm to the outside. This accounts for nearly 60% of the human body’s heat loss (Figure a) .…”
