Co-detection: Ultra-reliable Nanoparticle-Based Electrical Detection of Biomolecules in the Presence of Large Background Interference [PDF]
, 2010 Contrary to popular belief, we report that background interference in conductimetric biochips can be exploited using a novel "co-detection" principle to significantly improve the reliability of detecting trace quantities of biomolecules.

A Biochar‐Based Composite Hydrogel Microenvironment for Enhanced Biocatalysis
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This work presents the synthesis of a polyacrylamide hydrogel wherein biomass‐derived biochar is co‐encapsulated with the enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The resulting composite hydrogel possesses balanced electron‐rich and electron‐deficient domains, creating an optimal microenvironment that concentrates both hydrogen peroxide and phenol ...

Stable P‐Type PbS Quantum Dot Ink for all‐Blade‐Coated Short‐Wavelength Infrared Photodiodes
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Stabilization of p‐type PbS quantum dot ink is achieved through hydrogen bonding between fluorinated alcohols solvent and the MP ligand, allowing a six‐day shelf‐life. The solvent does not compromise pre‐deposited layers, enabling fully blade‐coated photodiodes in both n–p and p–n architectures, with enhanced detectivity and bandwidth compared to layer‐

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Spectroscopic ellipsometry in the Kretschmann‐Raether configuration (KRSE) is employed to characterize a DNA‐functionalized platform for viral sequence recognition. By merging SE with surface plasmon resonance, KRSE outperforms conventional SE, achieving nanomolar targeting through resonance wavelength shifts (δλ) measurements. Its enhanced interfacial
