Nitrogen and silicon co-doped carbon nanodots (N/Si-CDs) were synthesized by one-step hydrothermal carbonization of folic acid and 3-aminopropyl trimethoxy silane with the assistance of glycerol. The resultant N/Si-CDs present intense excitation-independent photoluminescence (PL) emission
owing to their monodisperse sizes and specific surface states. In comparison to nitrogen single doped CDs (N-CDs), the co-doped N/Si-CDs possess better PL properties following different emission manner due to the synergistic effects of the nitrogen and silicon dopants. Besides, the functionalized
surfaces of N/Si-CDs endow them with superior solubility and stability. The as-synthesized N/Si-CDs demonstrate selective and sensitive fluorescence response to Fe3+, which could be explained by the PL quenching effects of Fe3+ on N/Si-CDs. Based on this finding, the
quantitative analysis of aqueous Fe3+ by N/Si-CDs was established, showing good linearity in a range of 10 nM~45 μM and good sensitivity with a detection limit of 3.8 nM, so did for the detection of Fe3+ in fetal bovine serum (FBS) spiked samples. Therefore,
the N/Si-CDs as a novel fluorescence probe hold promising for monitoring environmental and clinical Fe3+.

N–Si co-doped TiO 2 nanoparticles for the photodegradation of phenol were prepared by SiCl 4 and TiCl 4 co-hydrolysis and the effect of H 2 O 2 modification was studied. The characterization results revealed that the Si doped into the TiO 2 lattice was limited and the redundant silicon existed in segregated amorphous silica. The average crystallite size of the photocatalysts reduced from 14.8 to 5.5 with increasing Si doping ratio. The absorption edges of the as-prepared samples got an obvious red shift in which the best one reached 526 nm. N and Si co-doped into the photocatalysts replaced Ti and formed the Ti–O–Si and O–Ti–N link-ages. The photocatalysts modified by H 2 O 2 were well dispersed and changed the molecular structure. The degradation effect of the used Si doped photocatalysts was better than for undoped photocatalysts, and the H 2 O 2 modification could not further enhance the photocatalytic activity for N–Si doped TiO 2 . For the photodegradation of phenol, the optimal molar ratio of Si/Ti and the calcination temperature was 1:4 and 650 °C, respectively. For the optimal photocatalyst, the molar ratios of O/Ti, N/Ti, and Si/Ti were 0.54, 0.19, 0.29, and the phenol removed 94.4 % in 6 h under solar light. The reusability of N–Si co-doped TiO 2 was relatively good.

A series of Sr 1 . 9 6 Sn 1 − x Si x O 4 :0.04Sm 3 + ( x = 0 , 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4) were synthesized from solid-state reaction. The mechanoluminescence (ML) performance of Sr 1 . 9 6 SnO 4 :0.04Sm 3 + was greatly enhanced by partial Si 4 + substitution for Sn 4 + , and the sample of Sr 1 . 9 6 Sn 0 . 8 Si 0 . 2 O 4 :0.04Sm 3 + showed weaker afterglow and twice stronger ML intensity than that in Sr 1 . 9 6 SnO 4 :0.04Sm 3 + . The stress response of Sr 1 . 9 6 Sn 0 . 8 Si 0 . 2 O 4 :0.04Sm 3 + ranged from 250 to 1200 N, and its linearity was greatly restored. Particularly, it was very sensitive in the minimal stress response range. These properties of no load threshold for stress sensing and weak afterglow make Sr 1 . 9 6 Sn 0 . 8 Si 0 . 2 O 4 :0.04Sm 3 + superior to other excellent ML materials. The introduction of Si 4 + caused lattice distortion and promoted defect formation in the system. The trap level energy greatly increased and the trap depth changed, which enhanced the trap ability and therefore improved effectively the ML properties.

Doping the host materials with either electron-rich heteroatoms or electron-deficient heteroatoms have been applied as a straightforward and main-stream method to modify the electronic structures and boost the electrochemical activity for various reactions, including nitrogen reduction reactions (NRR). As the third type of dopants, isoelectric heteroatoms (exemplified with Si atoms in carbon framework in this work) have been designed as highly efficient active centers for NRR. As the same group element with a different size and electronegativity to carbon support, the isoelectric Si heteroatom (Iso-e Si) creates localized singularities with a lone orbital that can act as an electron trap for pre-adsorbed N 2 molecules through coulomb interaction and thus facilitates the following activation process for NRR. Iso-e Si atom thus functions as a special type of metal-free single atom-based electrocatalyst to largely boost the faradaic efficiency of pristine carbon support for NRR by a factor of 12, giving a remarkably high turnover frequency value of 0.52 h −1 , comparable to atomically dispersed transition metal-based electrocatalysts.

Dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene in the presence or absence of CO 2 over silica-doped TiO 2 supported Ga 2 O 3 catalysts was investigated. The silica doping of TiO 2 support greatly improved the dehydrogenation activity in the absence of CO 2 , which can be ascribed to the increased acid sites. The initial activity in the presence of CO 2 decreased after the silica doping, due to the reduction in reverse water-gas shift ability. However, the selectivity as well as the stability increased, resulting in higher steady ethylene yield. A dynamic process consisting of alternative oxidative dehydrogenation/regeneration cycles by gasifying the carbon deposit with air for 10 min after each cycle of 6 h reaction was also performed and relatively stable ethane conversion ~30% and ethylene yield ~25% can be achieved. The different catalytic behaviors are probably associated with the different state of gallium species, caused by the different interaction between the Ga 2 O 3 and support.

The remarkable optical properties of carbon dots , particularly their tunable room-temperature phosphorescence, have garnered significant interest. However, challenges such as aggregation propensity and complex phosphorescence control via energy level manipulation during synthesis persist. Addressing these issues, we present a facile gel platform for tunable afterglow materials. This involves chemically cross-linking biomass-derived silicon-doped carbon dots with carboxymethylcellulose and incorporating non-precious metal salts (BaCl 2 , CaCl 2 , MgCl 2 , ZnCl 2 , ZnBr 2 , ZnSO 4 ) to enhance phosphorescence. Metal salts boost intersystem crossing via spin–orbit coupling, elevating triplet state transitions and activating phosphorescence. Chemical bonding and salt-induced coordination/electrostatic interactions establish confinement effects, suppressing non-radiative transitions. Diverse salt-gel interactions yield gels with tunable phosphorescence lifetimes (9.48 ms to 32.13–492.39 ms), corresponding to afterglow durations ranging from 3.20 to 11.86 s. With its broad tunability and high recognition, this gel material exhibits promising potential for dynamic multilevel anti-counterfeiting applications.

Si-doped α-Fe 2 O 3 by controlling the atom ratio of Si/Fe was synthesized for catalytic ozonation of nitrobenzene in aqueous solution. Basing on the results of batch oxidation experiments, the catalysts in Si/Fe ratios of 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 showed various activities for ozone decomposition into hydroxyl radical ( OH), which obviously enhanced the removal efficiency of nitrobenzene in aqueous solution compared with sole ozonation. The best Si/Fe ratio was 0.5 in present study. The dose of the catalyst, solution pH and reaction temperature can significantly affect the removal efficiency of nitrobenzene. Moreover, the catalyst was composed of Si–Fe binary oxides and α-Fe 2 O 3 . With the increase of Si/Fe ratio, the surface relative content of Si-Fe binary oxides increases and the relative content of α-Fe 2 O 3 decreases, which promotes the ozone adsorption-desorption on the surface of the catalyst. The generation of hydroxyl radical in catalytic ozonation was dependent on the synergy of ozone adsorption-desorption by Si–Fe binary oxides and ozone decomposition by α-Fe 2 O 3 on the surface of the catalyst.

Aggregation-induced phosphorescence (AIP) has attracted much attention for its unique luminescent characteristics. Nevertheless, this fascinating phenomenon is rarely reported in the field of carbon dots (CDs). Herein, a simple method to prepare CDs simultaneously with dispersion-state fluorescence, aggregation-state fluorescence, and phosphorescence is presented by a one-step solvothermal process. The resultant AIP CDs (A-CDs) display a long afterglow lifetime of 0.51 s in the aggregation state, lasting about 5 s to the naked eye. The phosphorescence emission of A-CDs resulted from the rigid, protective structure due to the aggregation state. In addition, inorganic silica has been employed as a doping matrix to effectively improve phosphorescent properties (1.11 s). Benefitting from the unique luminescence feature and excellent water dispersibility, the A-CDs can be dispersed directly in water, and the phosphorescent emission could be controlled by regulating the concentration, thus enabling information encryption.

Carbon molecular sieve (CMS) membranes present significant advantages and considerable potential for the precise separation of hydrogen gas, promoting the utilization of clean hydrogen energy. Recently, molecular or atomic-level doping exhibits a strong capacity to adjust the structure and performance of CMS membranes. However, there is limited understanding of how fine-tuning through molecular doping can adjust the physical properties of the microscopic carbon structures within CMS membranes. In this study, small molecule siloxanes are incorporated into precursor to facilitate the in-situ formation of silicon-doped CMS membranes at the molecular level. Interestingly, by modulating the side groups of the siloxanes, we can selectively adjust the morphology and size of the micro-carbon sheets within CMS membranes, thereby enabling precise tuning of the pore structure, separation performance and anti-aging ability. The resulting CMS membranes exhibit exceptional H 2 /CH 4 separation capabilities, significantly surpassing 2015 upper bounds. Besides, silicon-based functional groups and enlarged carbon structure effectively inhibit the physical aging of CMS membranes. This insight offers a more nuanced and controlled approach to precisely tailor microstructure of CMS membranes for efficient H 2 separation.

Non-metal doping is an effective strategy to enhance the photocatalytic performance of polymeric carbon nitride (CN), but silicon (Si) doping in CN has never been realized yet. Herein, Si-doped CN (CNSi) was firstly prepared via a simple calcination process, by using (NH 4 ) 2 SiF 6 as the Si source, and exhibits prominently enhanced photocatalytic activity in H 2 evolution from water splitting and for environmental purification. Its photocatalytic H 2 production rate under visible light irradiation is 2.24 mmol g −1 h −1 which is ∼3 times that of CN, with an apparent quantum yield reaching ∼7% at 420 nm. The photoactivity improvement of CNSi arises from its prominent increase in photoinduced charge separation and transfer efficiencies. The doping mechanism of Si in CN is well illustrated. CNSi exhibits a high chemical stability and also great potential for application in solar energy conversion and environmental remediation. This work provides a novel way to modify CN and paves an avenue for synthesizing other Si-containing CN photocatalysts .

Herein, a self-supporting comb-like Si-PEG copolymer with flexible Si–O–C bonds in the main chain and pending short PEG chains as the side chain was synthesized to improve the low temperature performance and overcome the quandary between good mechanical and electrochemical properties of the polymer electrolyte in lithium-ion batteries. The tensile strength of Si-PEG polymer electrolytes (SPH15) is 0.8 MPa at 30 °C, which is high enough to inhibit the growth of lithium dendrites. The ion conductivities of Si-PEG (SPH15) are 1.2 × 10−4 S cm−1 at 30 °C and 3.2 × 10−5 S cm−1 at 10 °C, which are one order of magnitude higher than those for PEG-based copolymer electrolytes without Si doping. The assembled LiFePO4/SPH15/Li half batteries can deliver the specific capacities of 84 mA h g−1 at 10 °C and present 75% capacity retention after 500 charge–discharge cycles at 0.5C.

Herein, a novel fluorescent probe was developed for the selective and sensitive detection of triclosan (TCS), which is based on turn-on fluorescence of quenched nitrogen silicon doped graphene quantum dot and ruthenium(III) ion (Si-GQDs/Ru3+) systems. Ru3+ is combined with Si-GQDs which thereby quenches the fluorescence, while the Si-GQDs/Ru3+ complex can be dissociated after the addition of TCS, resulting in fluorescence turn-on. The recovered fluorescence intensity was proportional to the concentration of TCS. The linear range of the probe for TCS detection was 500–25 000 ng L−1, with a low detection limit of 173 ng L−1. This detection platform has been successfully applied for the detection of TCS in both toothpaste and water samples.
