Nano-hydroxyapatite(HAP) was prepared by a hydrothermal method with calcium nitrate and diammonium hydrogen phosphate as raw material, to study its characteristics for morphology modification by arginine-functionalization and doping with rare earth such as Tb^(3+). The crystallization, grain size and dispersibility of the sample HAP were analyzed and discussed. The results show that the surface Zeta potential of arginine-functionalized HAP is changed, and the growth rate of HAP is inhibited to a certain extent during the synthesis. The structure of HAP/Arg is not affected during the synthesis by a small amount of rare earth ions doped such as Tb^(3+), and has a single phase of HAP with good dispersibility. The synthesized HAP is also of nano-sized level. Nano-hydroxyapatite argininefunctionalized and doped with rare earth such as Tb^(3+), is suitable for the application of gene delivery as a gene carrier.展开更多

It was found that unlike the pristine sheet, the Al-doped sheet can effectively interact with the N2O molecule so that its electronic properties and conductivity are dramatically changed. We believe that replacing a B atom of the BN sheet with an Al atom may be a good strategy for improving the sensitivity of these nanosheets toward N2O, which cannot be trapped and detected by the pristine sheet.展开更多

We used the method of quantitative analysis to research the gas-sensitive properties for Yb（1-x）CaxFeO3 to CO2. Also, we investigated the effects of various factors on gas sensing properties by simple variable method. The doping of Ca could not only decrease the resistance of YbFeO3, but also enhance its sensitivity to CO2. When the Ca content x=0.2, Yb（1-x）CaxFeO3 showed the best response to CO2. The response Rg/Ra to 5000 ppm CO2 for Yb（0.8）Ca（0.2）FeO3 at its optimal temperature of 260 °C with the room temperature humidity of 28%RH was 1.85. The response and recovery time decreased with an increase of the operating temperature for Yb（0.8）Ca（0.2）FeO3 sensor to 5000 ppm CO2. Furthermore, with an increase of CO2 concentration from 1000 to 50000 ppm, the response time of Yb（0.8）Ca（0.2）FeO3 became shorter, and meanwhile the recovery time was longer. CO2-sensing response for Yb（0.8）Ca（0.2）FeO3 increased with the increase of relative humidity. The response for Yb（0.8）Ca（0.2）FeO3 in the background of air（with the room temperature humidity of 39%RH） at 260 °C could reach 2.012 to 5000 ppm CO2, which was larger than the corresponding value（1.16） in dry air.展开更多
