Although many approaches for the modification of surface wettability have been developed, the practical application of superhydrophobic surfaces has been limited by the need for toxic materials and specialized equipment. Herein, a one-step coating method is developed for the fabrication of a superhydrophobic surface to eliminate these limitations. This environmentally friendly coating process uses only two reagents, namely, polydimethylsiloxane and ammonium bicarbonate, to minimize the inconvenience and costs associated with the disposal of used toxic materials. The superhydrophobic surface exhibits excellent durability, and the method is applicable to a variety of target surface shapes, including three-dimensional and complex structures. Besides, a wettability patterned surface and a functional filter for oil/water separation can be fabricated using this method. The numerous advantages of this approach demonstrate great practical application potential of these superhydrophobic surfaces.Plasmonic nanostructure/semiconductor nanohybrids offer many opportunities for emerging electronic and optoelectronic device applications because of their unique geometries in the nanometer scale and material properties. However, the development of a simple and scalable synthesis of plasmonic nanostructure/semiconductor nanohybrids is still lacking. Here, we report a direct synthesis of colloidal gold nanoparticle/graphene quantum dot (Au@GQD) nanohybrids under ambient conditions using microplasmas and their application as photoabsorbers for broad band photodetectors (PDs). Due to the unique AuNP core and graphene shell nanostructures in the synthesized Au@GQD nanohybrids, the plasmonic absorption of the AuNP core extends the usable spectral range of the photodetectors. It is demonstrated that the Au@GQD-based visible light photodete
