g-C3N4 Coated Upconversion Nanoparticles for 808 nm Near-Infrared Light Triggered Phototherapy and Multiple Imaging

Abstract: Exploring novel photosensitizer (PS) with good stability and high light converting efficiency and designing novel structure to integrate deep penetrating near-infrared (NIR) light excitable up-conversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) and PS into one system are highly fascinating in the photodynamic therapy (PDT) field. In this study, a novel core–shell structured platform (UCNPs@g-C3N4–PEG) with all-in-one “smart” functions for simultaneous photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy (PTT), and trimodal imaging properties has been rationally designed and fabricated. This system is composed of a core–shell–shell structured NaGdF4:Yb/Tm@NaGdF4:Yb@NaNdF4:Yb up-conversion luminescence (UCL) core and photoactive graphitic-phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4) mesoporous shell closely coated on individual core. This designed structure allows large specific surface area, high loading amount, close proximity to the UCL core, and almost no leakage of g-C3N4 PS, thus ensuring sufficient reactive oxygen species (ROS) to damage tumor...

KOH self-templating synthesis of three-dimensional hierarchical porous carbon materials for high performance supercapacitors

Abstract: We report a KOH self-templating synthesis of three-dimensional hierarchical porous carbon using resol as the precursor and KOH as both the template and activating agent. The resulting resol-derived porous carbon (RPC) exhibits a high surface area (up to 2700 m2 g−1) and well-interconnected macropores with micropores and mesopores decorated on the carbon walls. Consequently, the RPC shows low internal resistance, high specific capacitance, good rate capability and excellent cycling stability in 6 M KOH as a supercapacitor electrode. Because of its easy fabrication and low cost, it offers a good alternative method for synthesis of carbon electrodes for energy-storage devices such as Li-ion batteries, fuel cells and supercapacitors.
