Abstract

In article number 2101195 Chao Shen, Ben Zhong Tang, Ruquan Ye, and co-workers report a hydrophobic laser-induced graphene (HLIG) that enables effective inactivation of coronavirus in mild conditions from the synergy of photothermal effect and hydrophobicity. The non-metal HLIG achieves a 97.5% and 95% virucidal efficacy for HCoV-OC43 and HCoV-229E in 15 min under low-grade energy usage. Additionally, the low cytotoxicity and high stability of HLIG further make it a powerful material for disinfection.
