As sensor networks have the constrained and not rechargeable energy resource, energy efficiency is an important design issue for its topology. In this paper, the energy consumption issue under the different topology is studied. We derive the exact mathematical expression of energy consumption for the fiat and clustering scheme, respectively. Then the energy consumptions of different schemes are compared. By the comparison, multi-level clustering scheme is more energy efficient in large scale networks. Simulation results demonstrate that our analysis is correct from the view of prolonging the large-scale network lifetime and achieving more power reductions.展开更多

Ultrafast synthesis of ZIFs at room temperature and pressure is particularly desirable for large-scale industrial production. Here, we developed a green and versatile method using organic amines as supramolecular templates (organic amine-template) to rapidly synthesize hierarchical porous ZIFs (ZIF-8, ZIF-61 and ZIF-90) at room temperature and pressure. The synthesis time was reduced dramatically to within 1 min, and the resulting ZIFs had multimodal hierarchical porous structures with mesopores/ macropores interconnected with micropores. Notably, the space-time yield (STY) of hierarchical porous ZIF-8 was up to 1.29×10^4 kg m^-3 d^-1, which is more than three times higher than that reported using other methods. Furthermore, the morphologies and porosities of the produced ZIFs could be readily tuned by controlling the synthesis time or type of organic amine. The organic amine played two roles in the synthesis: (1) a protonation agent to deprotonate organic ligands, facilitating the formation of ZIF crystals, and (2) an structure directing agent to direct mesopore/macropore formation. The resulting hierarchical porous ZIF-8 exhibited enhanced uptake capacities and diffusion rates for guest molecules relative to its microporous counterpart. This work provides a new direction for the green and efficient synthesis of various hierarchical porous ZIFs with high STYs for a wide range of applications.展开更多
