Abstract in brief

  • The study found that most bacteria on common face masks remain alive after 8 hours, but using laser-induced graphene (LIG) significantly improves bacterial inhibition when combined with photothermal effects, achieving up to 99.998% bacterial kill rate within 10 minutes.
  • LIG can be made from various biomass sources, making it a sustainable and eco-friendly option to help meet increased demand during outbreaks.
  • The research also introduces a self-reporting feature, where moisture-induced electricity from gradient graphene allows users to monitor mask condition and safety in real time.]
