TL;DR: FGCs derived imaging nanoprobes offer stable and tunable visible emission, small hydrodynamic size, high biocompatibility and have been exploited in variety in vitro and in vivo imaging applications.
Abstract: Development of unique bioimaging probes offering essential information's about bio environments are an important step forward in biomedical science. Nanotechnology offers variety of novel imaging nanoprobes having high-photo stability as compared to conventional molecular probes which often experience rapid photo bleaching problem. Although great advances have been made on the development of semiconductor nanocrystals-based fluorescent imaging probes, potential toxicity issue by heavy metal component limits their in vivo therapeutic and clinical application. Recent works show that fluorescent gold clusters (FGCs) can be a promising nontoxic alternative of semiconductor nanocrystals. FGCs derived imaging nanoprobes offer stable and tunable visible emission, small hydrodynamic size, high biocompatibility and have been exploited in variety in vitro and in vivo imaging applications. In this review, we will focus on the synthetic advances and bioimaging application potentials of FGCs. In particular, we will emphasize on functional FGCs that are bright and stable enough to be useful as bioimaging probes.

TL;DR: In this paper, a covalent organic framework (COF), TFPB-TAPT COF, is used as an anode with high capacity in rechargeable sodium batteries.
Abstract: Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) promise several benefits as materials in terms of gas adsorption, for use in optoelectronic devices, etc. However, the energy storage ability of COFs has not been well studied, especially in sodium batteries. In this report, for the first time, a covalent organic framework (COF), TFPB-TAPT COF, is used as an anode with high capacity in sodium batteries. The TFPB-TAPT COF exhibits an initial reversible capacity of 246 mA h g−1 and a capacity of 125 mA h g−1 is retained after 500 cycles. The TFPB-TAPT COF further exhibits Na+ ion storage capability at different current rates. The Na+ ion storage viability of the TFPB-TAPT COF arises mainly because of its open ordered nanoporous framework, which provides reversible accommodation for ions. This work opens up a promising new approach for further utilization of COFs as electrode materials in rechargeable sodium batteries.

TL;DR: The synthesis of surfactant-assisted different morphologies of meso-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin assemblies (spherical to flower shaped) are demonstrated, which could pave the way for designing new optical based materials for the applications in photocatalytic, photovoltaic, and light harvesting system.
Abstract: In this report, we have demonstrated the synthesis of surfactant-assisted different morphologies of meso-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin assemblies (spherical to flower shaped). These nano/micro assemblies are well characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The formation of assemblies is driven by noncovalent interactions such as hydrophobic–hydrophobic and aromatic π–π stacking between the molecules. The steady state and time-resolved spectroscopic investigation reveal that different assemblies are formed by virtue of special supramolecular organizations. The photocatalytic activities of different assemblies have been demonstrated with an organic pollutant Rhodamine B dye under the visible light irradiation. Such porphyrin based assemblies could pave the way for designing new optical based materials for the applications in photocatalytic, photovoltaic, and light harvesting system.
