Lead halide perovskite single crystals (LHPSC) are promising for room-temperature γ-ray spectroscopy in radiation detection. While MA(CH3NH3)-based LHPSCs are the most straightforward and cost-effective to synthesize from solution, their performance in γ-ray spectroscopy is hindered by significant noise and ion migration at high bias, which degrades their energy resolution (ER). The work introduced an n-type/intrinsic/n-type photodiode incorporating passivation layers of MA-based LHPSCs, grown through solution-process epitaxial growth. This single-polarity device demonstrated an outstanding ER of 3.6% for 662 keV γ-ray photons. Overall, this work provides useful information for developing room-temperature γ-ray detectors based on solution-processed lead halide perovskites.

Due to its high thermal conductivity and favorable machinability, molybdenum–rhenium (Mo–Re) alloys have huge prospects in the field of high-temperature heat pipes. However, the weldability of Mo–Re alloys has not yet been systematically investigated. Based on an orthogonal test, the influence law of the single-mode fiber laser welding parameters on the weld profile and the mechanical properties of the joints was studied. Furthermore, the existence mode and the distribution law of Re in the fusion zone (FZ) were explored using X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) and the electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) system. The results showed that weld penetration and width are most significantly influenced by power, and that these increased with increasing power. The tensile strength of the Mo–Re alloy joints reached 250 MPa, and no obvious hardening was found in the FZ. Re in the FZ also appeared as ReO2, ReO3, and ReC, apart from the atomic state.Keywords:molybdenum–rhenium alloy;single-mode fiber laser;X-ray photoelectron spectrometer;electron backscattered diffraction

Nanomaterials have been widely used in the fields of photocatalysis, sensors, and solar cells due to their excellent properties. However, nanomaterials are mainly prepared under nonlimited conditions. With the development of biomimetic nanochannels, their gating properties and chemical stability have come to the fore. Inspired by the potential applications of biomimetic nanochannels, it is significant to synthesize nanomaterials inside biomimetic nanochannels under limited conditions for facilitating newer applications. Therefore, we used an anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template with different pore diameters as the limited condition to synthesize CdS structures via different synthesis methods. We successfully synthesized CdS nanoparticles and flower-like CdS structures in AAO nanochannels by the electrochemical-assisted method or solution impregnation method. Field-emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) results revealed that the CdS nanoparticles would agglomerate together to form irregular bulks with an increase in the applied voltage; flower-like CdS structures would block the AAO nanochannels for longer reaction times and higher concentrations. Energy-dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) results revealed that these structures self-assembled into AAO nanochannels were, in fact, CdS. In conclusion, these methods can provide important guidelines for nanomaterial synthesis in AAO nanochannels.

Fluorinated Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) block copolymers PCL-PTFOA(2 h), PCL-PTFOA(4 h), PCL-PTFOA(6 h), PCL-PTFOA(8 h) were prepared via esterification by using poly(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctylacrylate) (PTFOA) with different molecular weights as reactants. It was found that PCL-PTFOA(6 h) and PCL-PTFOA(8 h) possessed the similar molecular weight via GPC analysis. PCL and fluorinated PCL block copolymers films were prepared by solution casting method. The structure and properties of film surface of the fluorinated PCL block copolymers were analyzed by energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), water contact angles (WCAs) and the surface free energy. The results showed that the fluorinated PCL films possessed improved hydrophobicity because of the microphase separation between fluoropolymer chain and PCL chain. The enzymatic degradation of PCL, PCL-PTFOA(2 h), PCL-PTFOA(4 h) and PCL-PTFOA(6 h) films were performed at 37 °C in a phosphate buffer solution (PBS, 0.1 M, with a pH of 7.2–7.4) with lipase and analyzed by weight loss, SEM and EDS . It was found that the introduction of fluorine-containing segment reduced the rate of enzymatic degradation of the copolymer film in the early period, while increased the finally weight loss rate with a prolonged time. In addition, the enzymatic degradation rate of PCL-PTFOA(2 h) film and PCL-PTFOA(4 h) film was faster than that of PCL-PTFOA(6 h) film.

Selenium is an essential trace element and micronutrient for human health. Application of organic selenium in plants and microorganisms as trace element supplement is attracting more and more attention. In this study, Bacillus cereus, an important probiotic, was used for selenium enrichment with sodium selenite as selenium source. The growth curve of B. cereus was investigated, and 150 μg/ml was selected as the concentration of selenium for B. cereus fermentation. With application of response surface methodology, the optimal fermentation conditions were obtained as follows: inoculation quantity of 7%, culture temperature of 33°C, and shaking speed of 170 rpm, leading to the maximal selenium conversion ratio of 94.3 ± 0.2%. Field emission scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive spectrometry evidenced that inorganic selenium had been successfully transformed. This study may contribute to get a strain with high Se conversion ratio, so as to extract organic selenium in the form of selenoprotein to be used for further application.

Hyaluronan (HA) have been widely used as the ideal biomaterials. It is important to understand their degradation and distribution for better optimization. From a new aspect of using radiotracers, we designed the HA-tyramine-bisphosphonate derivative for dual-labelling with two radionuclides ( 99m Tc and 131 I) simultaneously for in vitro and in vivo tracking. This dual-radiolabelled HA derivative can still be non-covalently crosslinked by hydroxyapatites to form injectable gel. The excellent properties of the gel, such as robust, biodegradable, and self-healing capacity were maintained. We firstly proved the possibility to distinguish different radionuclides in the degraded gel using the high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometry. The radiolabelled gel showed lower toxicity than pure hydroxyapatites against various cell lines, while the in vivo results proved that the 99m Tc/ 131 I-labelling of the gel was safe and stable enough for imaging and quantitatively tracking. The present method can also be applied for the development of dual-radiolabelled gels from other polysaccharides.

In this paper, effect of surfactants on the hydrophobicity of low rank coal particles by sliding time measurements was investigated. X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) analysis indicated that the surfaces of low rank coal particle consisted of many hydrophilic functional groups. It was observed that the sliding time of low rank coal particles in 2-ethyl hexanol solution was the shortest than that of low rank coal particles in dodecyl amine hydrochloride (DAH) and sodium dodecyle sulfate (SDS) solutions. Moreover, the maximum touching angle (θ T ) of low rank coal particles observed in 10 −2 mol/L of 2-ethyl hexanol solution was about 80°, which was the greatest than that of low rank coal particles, about 39° in 10 −3 mol/L of DAH and 35° in 10 −4 mol/L of SDS solutions, respectively. Therefore, the sliding time results indicated that the hydrophobicity of low rank coal was enhanced by 2-ethyl hexanol and DAH and reduced by SDS. However, it was noted that the hydrophobicity of low rank coal was depressed when the DAH concentration increased to 10 −2 mol/L. The flotation performances were consistent with the results of sliding time measurements. Therefore, effect of surfactants on the hydrophobicity of low rank coal particles can be characterized by sliding time measurements.

Bi 2 O 3 /YSZ (Y 2 O 3 -stabilized ZrO 2 ) composite powders for solid electrolytes application were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method. The effects of raw material ratios and temperatures on the properties of the composite powders were studied. The morphology, crystal structure and phase composition of the composite powders were characterized by means of field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed that the Bi 2 O 3 /YSZ composite powders could be fabricated by chemical process, and the composite powders with different shapes were prepared when the ratio of raw materials or temperature changed. The one-dimensional rod-like Bi 2 O 3 particles were obtained when the content of Bi 2 O 3 was above 10 mol% or the heating mechanism was changed. And the growth mechanism of Bi 2 O 3 in the synthesis process was studied. The oriented attachment with interaction of Ostwald ripening was the possible growth mechanism.

The phosphor-converted white light-emitting diode (WLED) has received tremendous attention as a promising alternative to traditional light sources in lighting and displays. Herein, a novel broadband red emitter Ca 2 Sr(PO 4 ) 2 :Mn 2+ was successfully designed and synthesized based on the Sr-alloying and Mn-doping of Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 . The phase purity of the materials was verified by x-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses, while a scanning electron microscope (SEM) coupled with an energy-dispersive spectrometer (EDS) was employed to confirm the uniform dopant distribution. XRD Rietveld refinements were further performed to clarify the site occupation of alloying Sr and the Mn dopants. Effective site engineering confined the Mn dopants in a highly symmetric Ca5 site and excluded the immersion of Sr, leading to an extraordinarily long fluorescence lifetime. Density functional theory (DFT) simulations also revealed the good potential of the materials as host matrices for activators such as Mn 2+ . Finally, Ca 2 Sr(PO 4 ) 2 :Mn 2+ was used to fabricate a WLED prototype based on a near-ultraviolet (n-UV) commercial LED chip, which realized a warm white-light emission and high color rendering index (Ra) of 82.9. This WLED was able to survive the long-term stability test while maintaining high luminous efficacy of ~ 60 lm/W within 20 h, showing its great potential in practical applications.

The main purpose of this paper is to study the extraction and separation of key fragment elements based on the electrolytic refining process of spent fuel dry reprocessing. Firstly, the electrochemical mechanisms of Er(III) and Yb(III) in LiCl-KCl molten salts were investigated on W and In film electrodes with applied cyclic voltammetry (CV), square wave voltammetry (SWV) and open circuit potential (OCP) at 773 K. The results indicated that the reduction behaviour of In(III) and Yb(III) ions were a two-step transfer process and Er(III) ions was a one-step transfer process. Then, the kinetic parameters in electrochemical processes were calculated on an In electrode with different temperatures. The OCP approach was used to determine the equilibrium potential of Er(III)/Er(0) in the temperature range of 773 K∼848 K, and thermodynamic parameters of the In 3 Er alloy were provided. Based on electrochemical behaviour results, the electrochemical extraction of Er(III) and Yb(III) from LiCl-KCl-ErCl 3 molten salts and LiCl-KCl-YbCl 3 molten salts at liquid In electrodes was performed by constant potential and constant current electrolysis, respectively. The electrolysis products were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectrometry (SEM-EDS), the primary intermetallic compounds generated in the alloys were In 3 Er and In 3 Yb. The average extraction rates for Er(III) and Yb(III) were 94.70% and 96.54%, respectively, according to inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) analysis. Er(III) and Yb(III) were selectively extracted and separated from LiCl-KCl-ErCl 3 -YbCl 3 molten salts by potentiostatic control on the basis of the previously studied Lns (Er and Yb) extraction on In electrodes. The separation rate of Er(III) and Yb(III) by electrochemical selective deposition was 94.21%.

MoS2 nanosheets were grown on TiO2 nanotubes by the simple hydrothermal method for the first time. The layer-by-layer growth of MoS2 nanosheets led to a significant increase in the specific surface area of TiO2/MoS2 burst tube composites compared with TiO2 burst tubes, a significantly enhanced ability to separate photo-induced carriers, and synergistic adsorption and visible light catalytic activity of dye molecules. The maximum adsorption (qmax) of MB was 72.46 mg g−1. In addition, 94.1% of MB could be degraded after 30 minutes of visible light irradiation. The microsurface morphology, structure, chemical composition, element valence and band width of TiO2/MoS2 nanocomposites were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). The mechanism of photocatalytic reaction was studied via free radical capture experiments.
