Sandwiching analytes with structurally diverse plasmonic nanoparticles on paper substrates for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy
摘要： This report describes the systematic combination of structurally diverse plasmonic metal nanoparticles (AgNPs, AuNPs, Ag core–Au shell NPs, and anisotropic AuNPs) on flexible paper-based materials to induce signal-enhancing environments for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) applications. The anisotropic AuNP-modified paper exhibits the highest SERS response due to the surface area and the nature of the broad surface plasmon resonance (SPR) neighboring the Raman excitation wavelength. The subsequent addition of a second layer with these four NPs (e.g., sandwich arrangement) leads to the notable increase of the SERS signals by inducing a high probability of electromagnetic field environments associated with the interparticle SPR coupling and hot spots. After examining sixteen total combinations, the highest SERS response is obtained from the second layer with AgNPs on the anisotropic AuNP paper substrate, which allows for a higher calibration sensitivity and wider dynamic range than those of typical AuNP–AuNP arrangement. The variation of the SERS signals is also found to be below 20% based on multiple measurements (both intra-sample and inter-sample). Furthermore, the degree of SERS signal reductions for the sandwiched analytes is notably slow, indicating their increased long-term stability. The optimized combination is then employed in the detection of let-7f microRNA to demonstrate their practicability as SERS substrates. Precisely introducing interparticle coupling and hot spots with readily available plasmonic NPs still allows for the design of inexpensive and practical signal enhancing substrates that are capable of increasing the calibration sensitivity, extending the dynamic range, and lowering the detection limit of various organic and biological molecules.

Highly Foldable and Efficient Paper-Based Perovskite Solar Cells
摘要： Foldable paper-based solar cells are attractive power sources for wearable and portable applications. Currently, low power conversion efficiency (PCE) and degradation under different folding conditions restrict practical applications of paper-based solar cells. Herein are constructed solar cells on cellophane paper using oxide/ultrathin Ag/oxide (OMO) and perovskite as electrodes and absorbers, respectively. The perovskite solar cell (PSC) on cellophane exhibits a PCE of 13.19%, the highest among all the paper-based solar cells. More importantly, beneficial from ultrathin cellophane substrates combined with foldable OMO electrodes, PSCs on paper exhibit 50 single folding and 10 dual folding stability: they preserve 85.3 and 84.1% of the initial PCE after (cid:1)180(cid:3) and t180(cid:3) single folding for 50 cycles, respectively; and they remain 67.2 and 55.3% of the initial PCE after 10 inner and outer dual folding cycles, respectively. Furthermore, the solar cells after dual folding show serious cracks and delamination, leading to faster degradation than single folding. The highly efficient, foldable, and lightweight PSCs on cellophane are promising for future self-powered paper-based electronic applications.

[IEEE 2018 48th European Microwave Conference (EuMC) - Madrid, Spain (2018.9.23-2018.9.27)] 2018 48th European Microwave Conference (EuMC) - Implementing Wideband Monopole/Dipole Antennas on Paper Substrates
摘要： Advanced internet and multimedia set-top boxes are today massively based on 4*4 MIMO systems, with multi-sub-bands standards (Wifi bands, LTE, Bluetooth,…). Multiple antennas spatially distributed on the plastic casing become therefore a great challenge for cost and performances motivations, thus promoting flexible technology and substrate, for assembling sub-systems, under compactness considerations, as well as electrical performances improvement. In this paper, we discuss about the characterisation of Multi-band antennas designed on an ultra-low cost material (a cellulosic substrate, i.e. a paper) with design challenges in terms of radiation efficiency maximization and wideband properties under compactness constraints. Simulation and measurements are proposed to validate the designs
