Pt nanoparticles(NPs) of different contents(0.5 wt%,1 wt% and 2 wt%) were subsequently deposited on the PbW O4 microcrystals,producing robust Pt/PbW O4 composite microcrystals. The PbW O4 microcrystals and Pt/PbW O4 photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction,N2 sorption measurements,scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy,and X-ray photoelectron,photoluminescence,Fourier-transform infrared,and ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopies. The photocatalytic performances of the catalysts were evaluated by the consecutive photocatalytic degradation of acid orange II dye. The Pt/PbW O4 composite microcrystals exhibited high photocatalytic activity and stability. The deposition of Pt NPs produced surface plasmon resonance(SPR),which induced a large visible light absorption. A Pt NP content of 1-2 wt% resulted in an ~2 times increase in photocatalytic activity,compared with the activity of Pt/PbW O4. The crystal structure and high crystallinity of PbW O4 resulted in its favorable photocatalytic property,and the SPR effect of the Pt NPs promoted visible light harvesting. The Pt NPs also enhanced the separation of photo-generated electrons and holes,which further promoted the photocatalytic reaction.展开更多

The tunnel face under the ultimate limit state is analyzed from the perspective of energy balance. The work rates of external forces and internal energy dissipation are calculated. An analytical solution of necessary face pressures is derived. The optimal upper-bound solution of the face pressures is obtained by optimization. The results show that the three dimensionless parameters A, T, n of nonlinear Baker failure criterion have different effects on the necessary face pressures and the pattern failure mechanisms ahead of tunnel face. A is the most important one;n takes the second place, and T is the least one. The computed necessary face pressures are nonlinearly increasing when A is reduced. Combined with the actual monitoring data of Taxia tunnel, the calculation results in this paper is verified. It is suggested that the tunnel face supports should be strengthened timely in soft rocks to prevent the occurrence of face collapse.展开更多

Analysis of Sum Frequency Generation (SFG) vibrational peak of the free O-H stretching band at 3700 cm^-1 in four experimental configurations showed that orientational motion of water molecule at air/water interface is libratory within a limited angular range. The free OH bond of the interracial water molecule is tilted around 33°from the interface normal and the orientational distribution or motion width is less than 15°. This picture is significantly different from the previous conclusion that the interracial water molecule orientation varies over a broad range within the ultrafast vibrational relaxation time, the only direct experimental study concluded for ultrafast and broad orient, ational motion of a liquid interface by Wei et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett. 86, 4799, (2001)) using single SFG experimental configuration.展开更多

[Method] The particular variation phenotypes, a- gronomic traits, and protein and wet gluten contents of progenies derived from the same ion beam induced mutant were investigated. [Result] Morphological polymor- phism existed in some individuals. Plant height, spike length and protein content were significantly influenced by ion beam, and effective tiller number and wet gluten content were moderately influenced. Multiple comparisons of all the indices within groups indicated genomic instability among these groups. Coefficient of variation im- plied the differences within group were very low. [Conclusion] Ion beam irradiation displayed characteristics of multi-directivity and non-directiveness. It aroused multiple variations in the same mutant. Instability among progeny indicates cells had different fate even in the same irradiated tissue. It may take several generations for mutants to stabilize particular phenotypes. The effects of ion beam irradiation may be the in- terrelated direct irradiation damage, indirect irradiation damage and late effect, such as bystander effect and adaptive response.展开更多

UV-Vis spectra were employed to monitor the growth of the silver nanoplates. The resulting spectra indicated that, at an early stage, the products were spherical particles with planar nanoparticles appearing and growing subsequently. In the last stages of the process, some spherical particles were consumed by the growth of the nanoparticles, through an Ostwald ripening mechanism. Furthermore, it was found that the addition of either Poly(Vinyl Pyrrolidone) (PVP) or excessive citrate could stabilize the colloidal system effectively, and that rigorous stirring was necessary for the anticipant products, Introduction of a large quantities of sodium hydroxide can dramatically accelerate the reactive rate of the photoreduction process.展开更多

Acco...The adsorption state and catalytic properties of pepsin and acidic protease from microorganisms Asp. awamori and Asp. oryzae were studied in solid phase system (in presence of sorsilen, DEAE- and CM-cellulose). According to the results, adsorption capacity and catalytic activity of enzymes depend on the physical nature of surface groups of the solid phase. Changing the stability of enzymes in the system with solid phase is observed even the adsorption bond is less stable (in the case of DEAE- and CM-cellulose in acidic media). Injection to the medium ethanol, surfactants, sodium chloride and changing the temperature of the incubation medium could prevent the negative effects of the solid phases. When sorsilen is used as solid phase, pepsin and acidic protease from Asp. awamori suffer from high surface inactivation. Various surfactants influence adsorption state of enzymes differently. Non-ionic surfactants (Triton X-100) prevent adsorption and restore catalytic properties of enzymes.展开更多

The effect of sur- face protonation by HCI chemical treatment on the performance of DSSCs was studied. The results showed that the short-circuit current Jsc increased significantly upon the HCI treatment, while the open-circuit voltage Voc decreased slightly. Compared to the untreated DSSC, the Jsc and energy conversion efficiency was increased by 31% and 25%, respectively, for the 1 mol/L HCI treated cell. TiO2 surface protonation improved electronic coupling between the chemisorbed dye and the TiO2 surface, resulting in an enhanced electron in- jection. The decreased open-circuit voltage after TiO2 surface protonation was mainly due to the TiO2 conduction band edge downshift and was partially caused by increased electron recombination with the electrolyte. In situ Raman degradation study showed that the dye stability was improved after the TiO2 surface protonation. The increased dye stability was contributed by the increased electron injection and electron back reaction with the electrolyte under the open-circuit condition.展开更多

Changing the stability of enzymes in the system with solid phase is observed even the adsorption bond is less stable (in the case of DEAE- and CM-cellulose in acidic media). Injection to the medium ethanol, surfactants, sodium chloride and changing the temperature of the incubation medium could prevent the negative effects of the solid phases.

文摘NiO_(x)as a hole transport material for inverted perovskite solar cells has received great attention owing to its high transparency,low fabrication temperature,and superior stability.However,the mismatched energy levels and possible redox reactions at the NiO_(x)/perovskite interface severely limit the performance of NiO_(x) based inverted perovskite solar cells.Herein,we introduce a p-type self-assembled monolayer between NiO_(x)and perovskite layers to modify the interface and block the undesirable redox reaction between perovskite and NiO_(x)The selfassembled monolayer molecules all contain phosphoric acid function groups,which can be anchored onto the NiOr surface and passivate the surface defect.Moreover,the introduction of self-assembled monolayers can regulate the energy level structure of NiO_(x),reduce the interfacial band energy offset,and hence promote the hole transport from perovskite to NiO_(x)layer.Consequently,the device performance is significantly enhanced in terms of both power conversion efficiency and stability.

文摘The investigation on the cathode material of potassium ion batteries(PIBs),one of the most promising alternatives to lithium ion batteries,is of great significance.Potassium vanadium fluorophosphate(KVPO4F)with a high working voltage is an appealing cathode candidate for PIBs,while the poor cycling performance and low electronic conductivity dramatically hinder the application.Herein,a plum pudding model inspired three-dimensional amorphous carbon network modified KVPO4F composite(KVPO4F@3DC)is successfully designed in this study to tackle these problems.In the composite,KVPO4F particles are homogeneously wrapped by a layer of amorphous carbon and bridged by crosslinked large area carbon sheets.As the cathode for PIBs,the KVPO4F@3DC composite exhibits a high average operating voltage about 4.10 V with a super-high discharge capacity of 102.96 mAh g^-1 at 20 mA g^-1.An excellent long cycle stability with a capacity retention of 85.4%over 550 cycles at 500 mA g^-1 is achieved.In addition,it maintains 83.6%of its initial capacity at 50 mA g^-1 after 100 cycles at 55℃.The design of KVPO4F@3DC with plum pudding structure provides facilitative electron conductive network and stable electrode/electrode interface for electrode,successfully innovating an ultra-stable and high-performance cathode material for potassium ion batteries.
