However, its photoresistivity and photoresonse are still unsatisfied. Herein, we report a novel method to assemble ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) onto the reduced graphite oxide (RGO) sheet by simple hydrothermal process without any surfactant. It is found that the high-quality crystallized ZnO NPs with the average diameter of 5 nm are well dispersed on the RGO surface, and the density of ZnO NPs can be readily controlled by the concentration of the precursor. The photodetector fabricated with this ZnO NPs- RGO hybrid structure demonstrates an excellent photoresponse for the UV irradiation. The results make this hybrid especially suitable as a novel material for the design and fabrication of high performance UV photodector.展开更多

The NYSB is connected to Anju Basin to the east. The SYSSB extends to Subei Basin to the west. The acoustic basement of basins in the North Yellow Sea and South Yellow Sea is disparate, having different stratigraphic evolution and oil accumulation features, even though they have been under the same stress regime since the Late Triassic. The acoustic basement of the NYSB features China-Korea Platform crystalline rocks, whereas those in the SYSNB and SYSSB are of the Paleozoic Yangtze Platform sedimentary layers or metamorphic rocks. Since the Late Mesozoic terrestrial strata in the eastern of the NYSB (West Korea Bay Basin) were discovered having industrial hydrocarbon accumulation, the oil potential in the Mesozoic strata in the west depression of the basin could be promising, although the petroleum exploration in the South Yellow Sea has made no break-through yet. New deep reflection data and several drilling wells have indicated the source rock of the Mesozoic in the basins of South Yellow Sea, and the Paleozoic platform marine facies in the SYSSB and Central Rise could be the other hosts of oil or natural gas. The Mesozoic hydrocarbon could be found in the Mesozoic of the foredeep basin in the SYSNB that bears potential hydrocarbon in thick Cretaceous strata, and so does the SYSSB where the same petroleum system exists to that of oil-bearing Subei Basin.展开更多

The Paleozoic carbonate rock has been strongly reformed and the buried hills with different characteristics of structure are developed in the depression. There exist lots of groups of fault structures with strikes of NNE(or NE),NW, near NS and EW etc., of which the faults with strikes of NNE and NW play an important controlling role on present-day structural framework of the depression. The faults with near NS-striking and EW-striking deeply affect the establishment of structural framework of basement of the depression. Although most of the fractures are filled by calcite and other minerals, under the action of later structural stress, the earlier fractures could change their features into tensional ones. Therefore, much attention should be paid to the exploration and exploitation of Paleozoic oil and gas in Dongpu depression.展开更多

Systematically, a majority of garnets show bell-shaped chemical zoning of pyrope contents and Mg/(Mg+Fe2+) monotonously increasing outward. The grossular component in zonal garnet increases outwards, maximizes at an intermediate part, and then decreases towards the outermost rim, reflecting a process from increasing to decreasing pressure conditions during the prograde metamorphism. Jadeite contents of omphacite range from 25~20mole% within the cores to 15~10 mole% at the rims, implying a pressure-decreasing process (from 11 × 105 Pa to 8 × 105 Pa). The peak pressure-temperature (P-T) condition of 630~680 ℃ and ca. 15× 105 Pa in the western Iratsu mass is much higher than that of (610±25) ℃ and (10± 1)× 105 Pa of the Sambagawa oligoclase-biotite zone schists. The authors suggest a clockwise P-T-t path for the western Iratsu mass.展开更多

The effect of SiO2 concentration in sodium silicate, pH value and polymerization was investigated. The new silica sol binder, which possessed abundant pore volume and suitable acid amount, was an ideal component for preparing cracking catalyst. As a result, the corresponding catalyst comprising the new binder showed excellent performance. Compared with the reference sample, the liquefied petroleum gas(LPG) and propylene yield obtained over this catalyst increased by 3.49 and 1.20 percentage points, respectively. The perfect pore structure and suitable Lewis acid amount of new silica sol were the possible reason leading to its outstanding performance.展开更多

The heterostructures were obtained with a chemical mixing method. Scanning electron microscope images show that the samples appear as a homogeneous powder of rutile with carbon nanotubes intercalated in interspaces between the TiO2 grains. Characterization by both X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and cathodo-luminescence analysis show the formation of CO-Ti chemical bonds with a decrease of 0.8 eV in the band gap compared to pure rutile. The consequence of this band gap modification is a strong change in optical properties. Luminescence emission is drastically reduced and absorption in the visible range is increased of about 6% at very low concentration (1%) of carbon nanotubes.展开更多

Their structure and morphology were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The stability of these Ni-substituted spinel oxides prepared at different temperatures was investigated in acidic medium as well. The results show that Ni can be brought into the spinel framework completely to form well-crystallized product when x〈_0.5 and the optimized synthesis temperature is 800℃. LiNi0.4Mn1.6O4 prepared at 800℃ can maintain the spinel structure and morphology with Li extraction ratio of 30.37%, Mn extraction ratio of 8.78% and Ni extraction ratio of 1,82% during acid treatment. The incorporated Ni not only inhibits the dissolution of Mn, but also reduces the extraction of Li due to the lattice contraction展开更多

The number of coccoliths varies from about 0.5×106 up to almost 53×106 coccoliths/g sediment, with an average of 16×106 coccoliths/g sediment. The accumulation rate of total coccoliths varies from 1×106 to 278×106 coccoliths/cm2 ka. The nannofossil assemblages are usually dominated by a lower-photic species-Florisphaera profunda, of which the average percentage is about 70% in all samples. The absolute abundance and the accumulation rate of nannofossils as well as the percentage ofF. profunda display significant oscillations on two different time scales. One is the fluctuation coincident with the glacial-interglacial cycle, and the other is the long-term changes on a time scale longer than 100 ka. Six evolutionary stages of calcareous nannofossils could be divided for the last 2.32 Ma, from which we can reconstruct the changes in the depth of nutricline of the Nansha area. In this paper, the possible mechanism resulting in these variations is also discussed.展开更多

Using an AC lock-in technique, we are able to separate the thermoelectric contribution to the I-V characteristics of these important device structures. The temperature gradient is measured optically using Raman spectroscopy, which enables us to explore thermoelectric transport produced at material interfaces, across length scales of just 1-2 nm. Based on the observed thermoelectric voltage (AV) and tem- perature gradient (AT), a Seebeck coefficient of -99.3 μV/K is ascertained for the heterostructure device. The obtained Seebeck coefficient can be useful for understanding the thermoelectric component in the cross-plane I-V behaviors of emerging 2D heterostructure devices. These results provide an approach to probing thermoelectric energy conversion in two-dimensional layered heterostructures.展开更多

In this study, we successfully reveal the atomic arrangement and electronic properties of a coherent heterostructure of single-layer graphene and α-Al2O3(0001). The analysis of the atomic arrangement of single-layer graphene on α-Al2O3(0001) revealed an apparentcontradiction. The in-plane analysis shows that single-layer graphene grows not in a single-crystalline epitaxial manner, but rather in polycrystalline form, with two strongly pronounced preferred orientations. This suggests relatively weak interfacial interactions are operative. However, we demonstrate that unusually strong physical interactions between graphene and α-Al2O3(0001) exist, as evidenced by the small separation between the graphene and the α-Al2O3(0001) surface. The interfacial interaction is shown to be dominated by the electrostatic forces involved in the graphene n-system and the unsaturated electrons of the topmost O layer of α-Al2O3(0001), rather than the van der Waals interactions. Such features causes graphene hole doping and enable the graphene to slide on the α-Al2O3(0001) surface with only a small energy barrier despite the strong interfacial interactions.展开更多

文摘Solar‐driven CO_(2)conversion to precious fossil fuels has been proved to become a potential way to decrease CO_(2)with producing renewable fuels,which mainly relies on photocatalysts with efficient charge separation.In this work,a metal free heterostructure of covalent triazine framework(CTF)and graphite carbon nitride(g‐C_(3)N_(4),abbreviated as CN)is applied in the CO_(2)photoreduction for the first time.Detailed characterization methods such as photoluminescence(PL)and time‐resolved PL(TR‐PL)decay are utilized to reveal the photo‐induced carries separating process on g‐C_(3)N_(4)/CTF(CN/CTF)heterostructure.The introduced CTF demonstrated a great boosting photocatalytic activity for CN,bringing about the transform rates of CO_(2)to CO reaching 151.1μmol/(g·h)with a 30 h stabilization time,while negligible CH_(4)was detected.The optimal CN/CTF heterostructure could more efficiently separate charges with a lower probability of recombination under visible light irradiation,which made the photoreduction efficiency of CO_(2)to CO be 25.5 and 2.5 times higher than that of CTF and CN,respectively.This investigation is expected to offer a new thought for fabricating high‐efficiency photocatalyst without metal in solar‐energy‐driven CO_(2)reduction.
文摘The paper presents a study of the growth and characterization of carbon nanotube-rutile nanocomposites. The heterostructures were obtained with a chemical mixing method. Scanning electron microscope images show that the samples appear as a homogeneous powder of rutile with carbon nanotubes intercalated in interspaces between the TiO2 grains. Characterization by both X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and cathodo-luminescence analysis show the formation of CO-Ti chemical bonds with a decrease of 0.8 eV in the band gap compared to pure rutile. The consequence of this band gap modification is a strong change in optical properties. Luminescence emission is drastically reduced and absorption in the visible range is increased of about 6% at very low concentration (1%) of carbon nanotubes.

The number of coccoliths varies from about 0.5×106 up to almost 53×106 coccoliths/g sediment, with an average of 16×106 coccoliths/g sediment. The accumulation rate of total coccoliths varies from 1×106 to 278×106 coccoliths/cm2 ka. The nannofossil assemblages are usually dominated by a lower-photic species-Florisphaera profunda, of which the average percentage is about 70% in all samples. The absolute abundance and the accumulation rate of nannofossils as well as the percentage ofF. profunda display significant oscillations on two different time scales. One is the fluctuation coincident with the glacial-interglacial cycle, and the other is the long-term changes on a time scale longer than 100 ka. Six evolutionary stages of calcareous nannofossils could be divided for the last 2.32 Ma, from which we can reconstruct the changes in the depth of nutricline of the Nansha area. In this paper, the possible mechanism resulting in these variations is also discussed.

文摘Nanopores for DNA sequencing have drawn much attention due to their potentials to achieve amplification-free, low-cost, and high-throughput analysis of nuclei acids. The material configuration and fabrication of the nanopore has become one important consideration in the nanopore based DNA sequencing research. Among various materials, the newly emerged graphene has brought more opportunities to the development of sequencing technology because of its unique structures and properties. This review mainly focuses on the experimental aspects of graphene nanopore research including the nanopore fabrication methods and processes. Meanwhile, the challenges in the present graphene nanopore research including hydrophobicity, translocation velocity and noise are also addressed and discussed.
文摘We report thermoelectric transport measurements across a graphene/hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN)/graphene heterostructure device. Using an AC lock-in technique, we are able to separate the thermoelectric contribution to the I-V characteristics of these important device structures. The temperature gradient is measured optically using Raman spectroscopy, which enables us to explore thermoelectric transport produced at material interfaces, across length scales of just 1-2 nm. Based on the observed thermoelectric voltage (AV) and tem- perature gradient (AT), a Seebeck coefficient of -99.3 μV/K is ascertained for the heterostructure device. The obtained Seebeck coefficient can be useful for understanding the thermoelectric component in the cross-plane I-V behaviors of emerging 2D heterostructure devices. These results provide an approach to probing thermoelectric energy conversion in two-dimensional layered heterostructures.

文摘The ever-growing market demands for lithium ion batteries have stimulated numerous research efforts aiming at the exploration of novel electrode materials with higher capacity and long-term cycling stability.Two-dimensional (2D)nanomaterials and their heterostructures are an intense area of study and promise great potential in electrochemical lithium storage owing to their unique properties that result from structural planar confinement.Here we report a microwave chemistry strategy to integrate ultrathin SnO2 nanosheets into graphene layer to construct surface-to-surface 2D heterostructured architectures,which can provide unique structural planar confinement for highly reversible electrochemical lithium storage.The as-synthesized 2D SnO2/graphene heterostructures can exhibit high reversible capacity of 688.5mAh g^-1 over 500cycles with excellent long-term cycling stability and good rate capability when used as anode materials for lithium ion batteries.The present work definitely reveals the advantages of 2D heterostructures featured with a surface-to-surface stack between two different nanosheets in energy storage and conversion devices.

文摘Direct growth of graphene on insulators is expected to yield significant improvements in performance of graphene-based electronic and spintronic devices. In this study, we successfully reveal the atomic arrangement and electronic properties of a coherent heterostructure of single-layer graphene and α-Al2O3(0001). The analysis of the atomic arrangement of single-layer graphene on α-Al2O3(0001) revealed an apparentcontradiction. The in-plane analysis shows that single-layer graphene grows not in a single-crystalline epitaxial manner, but rather in polycrystalline form, with two strongly pronounced preferred orientations. This suggests relatively weak interfacial interactions are operative. However, we demonstrate that unusually strong physical interactions between graphene and α-Al2O3(0001) exist, as evidenced by the small separation between the graphene and the α-Al2O3(0001) surface. The interfacial interaction is shown to be dominated by the electrostatic forces involved in the graphene n-system and the unsaturated electrons of the topmost O layer of α-Al2O3(0001), rather than the van der Waals interactions. Such features causes graphene hole doping and enable the graphene to slide on the α-Al2O3(0001) surface with only a small energy barrier despite the strong interfacial interactions.
