Summary: A novel bis-BODIPY-based sensor, BODIPY-NN, has been reported for selective and sensitive recognition of F- and CN- ions. The sensor undergoes a marked color change and fluorescence quenching exclusively in the presence of F- and CN- ions. The mechanism of anion binding to BODIPY-NN has been elucidated through NMR, mass spectra, and theoretical calculations. The sensor can be regenerated by adding water in the F- system, while CN- ions irreversibly disrupt the sensor.

Summary: A C-2-symmetry dianthrimide based probe and its hydroxide complex have been reported as a chromo-fluorogenic sensor for detecting trace amounts of water in polar aprotic solvents. The probe exhibits higher sensitivity towards pure water in DMSO, with LOD measured at 0.0067% v/v. The dissociation of OH- from D in the presence of water is responsible for the colorimetric and fluorometric responses.

Summary: A water-stable bidentate pnictogen bond donor has been found to have high binding affinities for cyanide, cyanate, and acetate. This opens up possibilities for anion recognition and noncovalent catalysis using this pnictogen bond donor motif. The binding behavior of the pnictogen bond donor was studied, and the high binding constants were confirmed through calculations.

Summary: In this study, a novel coumarin derivative-modified cellulose acetate (DCB-CA) was synthesized as a fluorescent probe for the highly selective and sensitive determination of CN- in food samples. Different characterization methods were used to analyze the DCB-CA, and it showed a significant fluorescence response to CN- with a distinct color change. The detection limit of CN- using DCB-CA was much lower than the recommended threshold limit by the World Health Organization. The favorable solubility and processability of CA allowed for the easy fabrication of different fluorescent materials, including films and coatings, for CN- detection.

Summary: The advent of laser-driven high-intensity gamma-photon beams has opened up new opportunities for designing advanced photon-photon colliders. In our recent work, we investigated the polarization characteristics of linear Breit-Wheeler pair production in circularly-polarized gamma-photon collisions. By using a new spin basis for positrons and electrons, we were able to decouple the transverse and longitudinal spin components, and found that the linear polarization of photon can induce highly angle-dependent pair yield and polarization distributions.

Summary: By introducing an additional NaGdF4 layer, spatial control of energy migration among the Gd sublattice within the core-shell nanostructure can enhance the upconversion luminescence of Mn2+. This design effectively isolates the interfacial quenching interactions between the sensitized core and luminescent shell, providing an efficient channel for energy transport.

Summary: This study systematically investigated the effect of Ag nanowires (NWs) on the optical properties of optoelectronic polymer poly[2-methoxy-5-(2ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene] (MEH-PPV). The decoration of Ag NWs with an average diameter of 160 nm leads to improved absorption and photoluminescence ability due to the coexistence of localized surface plasmons and propagating surface plasmons. The results showed significant enhancement, with 180% improvement in absorption and 190% improvement in photoluminescence at around 630 nm. Furthermore, the Ag NWs were found to effectively suppress non radiative recombination and enhance radiative recombination.

Summary: This study systematically investigated the optical properties of four fluorenone-based conjugated oligomers, and found that one of the oligomers has an extremely low color temperature and can be used as a physiologically-friendly light source. The substituent groups and spacer units enhance the optical performance of the oligomers. These findings are significant for the design and optimization of universal light-emitting materials in optoelectronic devices.
