Wherein the actuation of liquid is a key technic. In a variety of methods for controlling microscale liquid, the light actuation is particularly interesting. The light actuation offers a novel way to control the flow of fluids for biomedical and biotechnological applications, etc.. The complexity and cost of devices sometimes may be greatly reduced by using complete optical control and may be more flexible in operation than other methods. However the light actuation of liquid is a burgeoning field as well as optofluidics. There is lots of work to do. Here we systematically describe four mechanisms for the light actuation of liquid based on the following points: optoelectrowetting, photothermal effect, radiation pressure, photosensitive substance.展开更多

Through characterizing the UV-Vis absorption spectra, the photoluminescence spectra of (pbi)2Ir(acac) and DCJTB, and the electroluminescence spectral properties of the WOLEDs, the energy transfer mechanisms of the codoped polymer system were deduced. The results demonstrate that the luminescent spectra with different intensity of (pbi)2Ir(acac) and DCJTB were co-existent in the EL spectra of the blended system, which is ascribed to an incomplete energy transfer process in the EL process. The efficient Forster and Dexter energy transfer between the host and the guests enabled a strong yellow emission from (pbi)2Ir(acac) and DCJTB, where (pbi)2Ir(acac) plays an important role as a phosphorescent sensitizer for DCJTB. With the blue emitting-layer of N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(1- naphthyl)(1,1'-biphenyl)-4,4'-diamine, the codoped system device achieved white emission. The codoped system showed that its Commissions Internationale de 1'Eclairage coordinates were more independent of the variation of bias voltage than those of phosphorescent doped PVK systems.展开更多

Additionally, the biosensor was based on ECL photo-quenching effect of ferrocene (Fc) to tris(2,2-bipyridyl)ruthenium(II) (Ru(bpy)2+). It was built up by modification of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) and Ru(bpy)32+ on one Au electrode firstly, and then self-assembly of one special double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) onto the electrode. This dsDNA was prepared by hybridization of one Fc labeled molecular beacon single-stranded DNA(ssDNA) and one anti-thrombin aptamer ssDNA. Without the target protein, this Fc-dsDNA/Ru(bpy)2+- AuNPs/Au elec- trode trigged strong ECL signal, so we called it ECL "signal on" state. When thrombin was present in the sensing solution, the protein reacted with its aptamer from the Fc-dsDNA/Ru(bpy)3^2+-AuNPs/Au electrode. Then the left molecular beacon ssDNA on the electrode recovered to its normal stem-loop structure and consequently its Fc labeler was close enough to the electrode surface to quench the ECL signal from Ru(bpy)3^2+. It was in ECL "signal off" state. We measured the decrease in ECL intensity to sense the target protein. This was one endeavour to sense protein by using un-labeling target or probe strategy, which gave higher sensitivity and selectivity due to the better combination efficiency of protein and the un-labeled aptamer. 6.25 fmo/L thrombin was detected out,展开更多
