With the advantages of controllable atomic composition, unique molecular‐like properties, and excellent biocompatibility, atomic precision Au cluster is an ideal candidate for developing materials with customized biological functions to meet the needs of precision medicine. To achieve the rational design of functional materials through structural regulation at the atomic level, it is important to clarify the relationship between the structure and properties of Au clusters. With the development of synthesis methodology, a variety of structural regulation methods of Au clusters have been developed, providing new opportunities for structure–activity relationship establishment and precision medicine application. This review introduces the synthesis and structure regulation methods of atomic precision Au clusters, and the effects of structural regulation on the physicochemical properties are further described. At the same time, the applications of Au clusters in precision medicine, including the detection of biomolecules, functional imaging, and disease therapy are discussed, as well as the recent studies around their biosafety. At last, it also briefly summarizes the current problems and development directions. The present work provides potential theoretical guidance for the rational design of Au clusters with customized biological functions and is of great significance for broadening their applications in the field of precision medicine.

Nanozymes can be used as favorable substitutes for natural enzymes because of their strong catalytic activity and good stability. At the same time, research on single‐atom catalysts (SACs) with isolated metal atoms as active centers is also in full swing, showing excellent performance in a variety of catalytic reactions. With the in‐depth study of SACs, people have a comprehensive understanding of them and put forward the concept of single‐atom nanozymes (SAzymes) by combining nanozymes with SACs. As a new type of nanomaterial, SAzymes have attracted great interest due to their remarkable catalytic activity and rapid energy conversion. However, most applications of SAzymes are mainly in the fields of biomedicine and biosensing, and less research has been done in the field of the environment. Based on the amazing ability of nanozymes to detect and degrade pollutants, SAzymes are also used in the environmental field, and even they will show better capabilities. This review mainly analyses common transition metal‐based SAzymes and describes their applications in the field of environmental pollutants.

Since 2015, m‐phenylenediamines (mPD) have become a popular carbon source for the synthesis of carbonized polymer dots (CPDs). However, their exact fluorescence mechanism is still obscure. To elucidate this, inorganic acids that are carbon‐free are chosen as additives for a comparative study. It is found that the green fluorescence quantum yield (nearly 80%), photostability, and reaction yield (over 90%) can be enhanced by introduction of most of inorganic acids with moderate amount. Besides, green‐blue dual emission is observed in acid‐assisted groups. UV‐vis absorption, Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy, and surface‐enhanced Raman scattering results indicate that the green fluorescence center is composed of quinoid rings, whereas the blue fluorophore contains benzenoid rings. Moreover, room‐temperature afterglow with lifetime up to 1.25 s is observed exclusively in acid‐assisted CPDs composites with urea/biuret. The blue chromophore is proposed to be the origin of the triplet level that induces the long afterglow. This work provides an in‐depth understanding on the macromolecular structures of CPDs derived from phenylenediamines, and contributes a new line of thought to the origin of phosphorescence in N‐doped carbon dots.

Lead sulfide (PbS) is a nanomaterial with excellent optical and chemical properties, such as a narrow bandgap (0.37 eV), high thermal damage threshold, and high stability. Obviously, it is appropriate as a saturable absorber (SA) device for ultrafast photonics. However, PbS nanoparticles (NPs) as the SA of ultrashort harmonic mode-locked pulse still haven't been demonstrated at present. In this paper, the PbS NPs are made into an SA-device-based microfiber by optical deposition method and connected in an integrated Erbium-doped fiber laser. And both characteristics and nonlinear optical properties of PbS NPs have been systemically investigated. A fundamental frequency mode-locked pulsed laser is proposed, whose central wavelength is 1560 nm, and the pulse width is 1 ps. In addition, high repetition rate operations are achieved, with a maximum repetition rate of 833 MHz. This is the first time that PbS NPs are used to generate 96th-order harmonic mode-locking, and the corresponding pulse duration is 987 fs. It is demonstrated that PbS NPs are a kind of SA photonic material with excellent performance. It can improve the communication capacity by applying fiber communication, and it has potential application value even in material processing and optical comb.

Liquid marbles show promising potential for application in the microreaction field. The efficient and precise approach for the remote coalescence of liquid marbles is desirable. Herein, the ultraviolet‐light–induced wettability transition of TiO2 nanoparticles is exploited to develop an ingenious approach for efficient and controlled coalesce of contacting liquid marbles containing separate reagents. This approach is generic and provides ideas for the on‐demand initiation of multistep microreactions inside liquid marbles.

This study presents the development of a hierarchical design concept for the synthesis of multi‐scale polymer particles with up to five levels of organization. The synthesis of core–shell microparticles containing nested sets of dispersed metal and polymer micro‐ and nanoparticles is achieved through in situ photopolymerization using a double co‐axial capillaries microfluidic device. The flow rates of the carrier, shell, and core phases are optimized to control particle size and result in stable core–shell particles with well‐dispersed three‐level composites in the shell matrix. The robustness and reversibility of these core–shell particles are demonstrated through five cycles of drying and re‐swelling, showing that the size and structure of core–shell particles remain unchanged. Additionally, the permeability and mobility of dye molecules within the shell matrix are tested and showed that different molecular weight dyes have different penetration times. This study highlights the potential of microfluidics as a powerful tool for the controlled and precise synthesis of complex structured materials and demonstrates the versatility and potential of these core–shell particles for sensing applications as particle‐based surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS).
