Synthesis and characterization of FeAl nanoparticles by flow-levitation method

The synthesis of high purity intermetallic FeAI nanoparticles using the flow-levitation （FL） method was reported. Iron and aluminium droplets were levitated stably at about 2 230℃. The morphology, clystal structure and chemical composition of FeAI nanoparticles were investigated by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）, high-resolution TEM, X-ray diffraction and energy dispersive spectrometry. The results show that the average particle size of these nanoparticles is about 34.5 nm. Measurements of the d-spacing from X-ray diffraction and electron diffraction studies confirm that the intermetallic nanoparticles have the same crystal structure （B2） as the bulk FeA1. A thin oxidation coating is formed around the particles when being exposed to air. Based on the XPS measurements, the surface coating of the FeAI nanoparticles is composed of Fe2O3 and FeAl2O4. Besides, hysteresis curve reveals that saturation magnetization （Ms） of FeA1 is 1.66 A/m2, and the coercivity is about 1.214×10^3 A/re.

Preparation of WC@TiO2 Core-shell Nanocomposite and Its Electrocatalytic Characteristics

Monotungsten carbide and titania nanocomposite with core-shell（WC@TiO2）structure was prepared by a new approach of spray drying and reduction-carbonization reaction,with titania nanopowder and ammonium metatungstate as precursors,methane as carbon source,and hydrogen as reduction gas.The sample was characterized by X-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscope,high resolution transmission electron microscope and X-ray energy dispersion spectroscopy.The results show that its crystal phase is composed of brookite,tungsten and monotungsten carbide.The morphology of the sample particle is irregular sphere-like,with a diameter smaller than 100 nm.Its chemical components are titanium,tungsten,carbon and oxygen.Monotungsten carbide nanoparticles lie on the surface of titania core and form an incomplete shell around titania core in the nanocomposite.The measurement with a microelectrode system of three electrodes shows that the sample is electrocatalytic active to nitrophenol in basic solution at room temperature.Its peak potential is at0.988 V（vs saturated calomel electrode （SCE））,which is more negative than the peak potential,0.817 V（vs SCE）,of mesoporous monotungsten carbide, and its peak current is 8.809μA,which is higher than the peak current,4.058μA,of mesoporous monotungsten carbide.The hydrogen generation potential of the sample is at1.199 V（vs SCE）,which is more negative than that of pure nanosized monotungsten carbide at1.100 V（vs SCE）.These results show that the presence of titania in the sample can lower the peak potential of nitrophenol electrocatalysis and its hydrogen generation potential,and increase its peak current of nitrophenol electrocatalysis in basic solution at room temperature.This indicates a synergistic effect of titania and monotungsten carbide in electrocatalysis.

Effect of Sulfurization Temperature on Thioetherification Performance of Mo-Ni/Al_2O_3 Catalyst

The Mo modified Ni/Al_2O_3 catalysts were prepared and sulfided at different temperatures, and their catalytic activity for thioetherification of mercaptans and olefins(or dienes), hydrogenation of dienes and olefins in the thioetherification process using fluidized catalytic cracking(FCC) naphtha as the feedstock was investigated. In order to disclose the correlation between the physicochemical characteristics of catalysts and their catalytic activity, the surface structures and properties of the catalysts sulfided at different temperatures were characterized by the high resolution transmission electronic microscopy(HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and H2-temperature programmed reduction(H_2-TPR) technique. The results showed that an increase of sulfurization temperature not only could promote the sulfurization degree of active metals on the catalysts, but also could adjust the micro-morphology of active species. These changes could improve the catalytic performance of thioetherification, and hydrogenation of dienes and olefins. However, an excess sulfurization temperature was more easily to upgrade the ability of the catalyst for hydrogenation of olefins, which could lead to a decrease of the octane number of the product. It was also showed that a moderate sulfurization temperature not only could improve the catalytic performance of thioetherification and hydrogenation of dienes but also could control hydrogenation of olefins.

Study of photocurrent generation in InP nanowire-based p＋-i-n＋ photodetectors

We report on electrical and optical properties of p＋-i-n＋ photodetectors/solar cells based on square millimeter arrays of InP nanowires （NWs） grown on InP substrates. The study includes a sample series where the p＋-segment length was varied between 0 and 250 nm, as well as solar cells with 9.3% efficiency with similar design. The electrical data for all devices display clear rectifying behavior with an ideality factor between 1.8 and 2.5 at 300 K. From spectrally resolved photocurrent measurements, we conclude that the photocurrent generation process depends strongly on the p^-segment length. Without a p＋-segment, photogenerated carriers funneled from the substrate into the NWs contribute strongly to the photocurrent. Adding a p＋-segment decouples the substrate and shifts the depletion region, and collection of photogenerated carriers, to the NWs, in agreement with theoretical modeling. In optimized solar cells, clear spectral signatures of interband transitions in the zinc blende and wurtzite InP layers of the mixed-phase i-segments are observed. Complementary electroluminescence, transmission electron microscopy （TEM）, as well as measurements of the dependence of the photocurrent on angle of incidence and polarization, support our interpretations.
