A universal hydrochloric acid-assistant powder-to-powder strategy for quick and mass preparation of lead-free perovskite microcrystals

Lead-free halide perovskite materials possess low toxicity,broadband luminescence and robust stability compared with conventional lead-based perovskites,thus holding great promise for eyes-friendly white light LEDs.However,the traditionally used preparation methods with a long period and limited product yield have curtailed the commercialization of these materials.Here we introduce a universal hydrochloric acid-assistant powder-to-powder strategy which can accomplish the goals of thermal-,pressure-free,eco-friendliness,short time,low cost and high product yield,simultaneously.The obtained Cs_(2)Na_(0.9)Ag_(0.1)In_(0.95)Bi_(0.05)Cl_(6)microcrystals exhibit bright self-trapped excitons emission with quantum yield of(98.3±3.8)%,which could retain(90.5±1.3)%and(96.8±0.8)%after continuous heating or ultraviolet-irradiation for 1000 h,respectively.The phosphor converted-LED exhibited near-unity conversion efficiency from ultraviolet chip to self-trapped excitons emission at~200 mA.Various ions doping(such as Cs_(2)Na_(0.9)Ag_(0.1)InCl_(6):Ln^(3+))and other derived lead-free perovskite materials(such as Cs_(2)ZrCl_(6)and Cs_(4)MnBi_(2)Cl_(12))with high luminous performance are all realized by our proposed strategy,which has shown excellent availability towards commercialization.

Synergistic effect enhances the peroxidase-like activity in platinum nanoparticle-supported metal—organic framework hybrid nanozymes for ultrasensitive detection of glucose

The metal—organic frameworks(MOFs)are expected as ideal biomimetic enzymes for colorimetric glucose detection because of their large surface areas,well defined pore structures,tunable chemical composition,and multi-functional sites.However,the intrinsically chemical instability and low mimetic enzyme activity of MOFs hinder the application of them in imitating the enzyme reactions.In this work,we demonstrated a metal-MOF synergistic catalysis strategy,by loading Pt nanoparticles(Pt NPs)on MIL-88B-NH2(Fe-MOF)to increase peroxidase-like activity for the detection of glucose.The induced electrons transfer from Pt atom to Fe atom accelerated the redox cycling of Fe^(3+)/Fe^(2+),improved the overall efficiency of the peroxidase-like reaction,and enabled the efficient and robust colorimetric glucose detection,which was proved by both experiments and density functional theory(DFT)calculation.Additionally,the sensitivity and chemical stability of this synergistic effect strategy to detect the glucose are not affected by the complex external factors,which represented a great potential in fast,easy,sensitive,and specific recognition of clinical diabetes.

Synthesis of Co_(4)S_(3)/Co_(9)S_(8) nanosheets and comparison study toward the OER properties induced by different metal ion doping

Regulation of chemical composition and nanostructure, such as the introduction of dopant into two-dimensional nanomaterials, is a general and valid strategy for the efficient electrocatalyst design. In this work, Co_(4)S_(3)/Co_(9)S_(8) nanosheets, with an ultrathin layer structure, were successfully synthesized via an efficient solvothermal process combined with ultrasonic exfoliation. Different metal ions (M = Fe^(3+), Cr^(3+), Mn^(2+) and Ni^(2+)) were then doped by a simple cation exchange method and the effects of different dopants on the OER activities of Co_(4)S_(3)/Co_(9)S_(8) NS were further investigated in alkaline media. The corresponding results implied that M-doped Co_(4)S_(3)/Co_(9)S_(8) NS (M = Fe^(3+), Cr^(3+), Mn^(2+) and Ni^(2+)) exhibited different electrocatalytic properties. Evidenced by XPS spectra, the different OER activities were mainly aroused by the redistribution of charge at the interface due to an electronic interaction between the doped metal ions and Co_(4)S_(3)/Co_(9)S_(8) NS.

Friction of MoO_(3) Nanoflakes on Graphite Surface with an Ace-like Intercalation Layer

How water layer adsorbed on solid surface under ambient conditions affects the interfacial friction is a fundamental question for understanding the friction and lubrication phenomena in practical system.We investigate the formation of ice-like(IL)water layers on the hydrophobic surface of graphite with partially covered MoO_(3)nanoflakes(NFs)using atomic force microscopy(AFM)based techniques.The IL water layers are found surrounding the MoO_(3)NFs and also intercalated at the MoO_(3)/graphite interface,as proved by thickness measurements as well as local adhesion force and surface potential mappings.AFM manipulations carried out on MoO_(3)NFs on graphite show that the presence of the IL water layers increases the frictional resistance of the interface.Comparing the results on continuous and discontinuous IL water layers,we can identify the different sliding interfaces in the two scenarios.The increased friction for MoO_(3)NFs sliding on graphite with an intercalated water layer is attributed to the energy dissipation originated from the metastable nature of the IL layers.

多模态疗法是结合多种疗法治疗通常复杂而隐蔽的肿瘤组织的最有希望的策略之一.尽管多功能纳米材料已被设计用于构建多模态疗法,但普遍存在的各组成部分之间的不充分协调可能导致协同治疗效果不佳,并妨碍其充分实现临床潜力.在此,受可控“集束炸弹”模型的启发,我们设计了一种智能、生物相容、多功能的纳米工厂系统(PDA@GOx@MnO_(2)-PEG),它封装了多种纳米试剂,以达到对肿瘤组织的高破坏效率.刺激反应性的外层二氧化锰作为“炸弹”的外壳可触发级联催化反应,并与GOx形成一个自给自足的环形催化链.PDA作为一种具有良好蛋白质携带能力的基质,实现了高的GOx负载.同时,其高效的光热转换效率显示了低温(~45℃)进一步提高GOx酶活性的潜力.值得注意的是,内部的GOx就像一个“子炸弹”,通过控制释放来增加肿瘤缺氧部位的积累,并在充足的氧气和低热度的帮助下充分发挥其葡萄糖消耗能力进行饥饿治疗.在这个体系中,各种纳米试剂相互配合,层层推进,充分发挥其威力,形成了一个自给自足的纳米工厂模型,通过协同策略实现了良好的低温光热-饥饿协同治疗.此外,该纳米复合材料表现出三态成像能力,可用于敏感诊断和实时监控治疗.这项研究为设计生物相容性和智能治疗纳米平台提供了新的见解,使精准医疗中的多模式治疗效果最大化.
