Isomorphic materials tend to exhibit differentiated performance due to the small differences between the constituent atoms and the crystal structures. Inspired by the isomorphic strategy, herein we developed a novel trap-controlled mechanoluminescent (TC-ML) material, Pr3+-activated Sr2Nb2O7, that shows mechanoluminescence (ML) under the mechanical actions of compression and friction. Compared to the isomorphic Ca2Nb2O7:Pr3+ which requires a long-time delay to achieve high-contrast ML due to the strong long-lasting afterglow, Sr2Nb2O7:Pr3+ enables the obtaining of high-contrast ML in a short-time delay because of the weak short-lasting afterglow, which greatly simplifies the imaging process to facilitate the further application of ML. The investigations of structural and optical characteristics between Sr2Nb2O7:Pr3+ and Ca2Nb2O7:Pr3+ reveal that the unique ML of Sr2Nb2O7:Pr3+ should result from its lower trap concentration and shallower trap depth relative to Ca2Nb2O7:Pr3+. Our results are expected to deepen our understanding on the behavioral diversity of isomorphic phosphors and thereby broaden the horizon of designing and regulating TC-ML materials.

(Sr1-xBax) 2(Nb0.9Ta0.1) 2O7 (SBNT) ceramics were prepared by solid state reaction. The crystal structure of SBNT ceramics, surface morphology and dielectric properties were studied using XRD, SEM and LCR instrument analyzer, respectively. The results show that the grain size decreases with increasing Ba concentration, and all samples show single phase, no second phase can been observed. Addition of Ba ion can improve the dielectric properties of SBN ceramics. The dielectric constant increases first, then decreases; the maximum value (εr=97) can be obtained at x=0.1, the dielectric constant changes slightly with increasing wide frequency.

Sr2(TaxNb1-x)2O7 (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4) (STNO) ceramics were prepared by the conventional solid-state reaction method. The microstructure, dielectric and ferroelectric properties of the samples were investigated. The results show single phase STNO with perovskite-like layered structure and that Ta5+ ion can diffuses into the crystal lattice. The addition of Ta5+ dopant decreases the grain size of the material. The dielectric constant increases with increased x, and the sample with x = 0.2 exhibits enhanced dielectric properties (ϵr ≈ 56, tanδ ≈ 0.01%). The remnant polarization (2Pr) and coercive electric field (2EC) of STNO ceramics increase with increasing Ta content, and reach the maximum value (2Pr = 0.11μC/cm2 and 2EC = 5.75 kV/cm) at x = 0.4. Our results indicate that Ta doping can effectively improve the dielectric and ferroelectric properties of Sr2Nb2O7 ceramics.

Developing efficient and highly selective photocatalytic CO 2 reduction catalysts remains one of the most significant challenges in achieving carbon neutrality . Herein, the efficient conversion of CO 2 to CH 4 with selectivity close to 100% was achieved by loading uniformly dispersed Pt nanoparticles on the surface of Sr 2 Nb 2 O 7 nanosheets ; the optimal CH 4 yield was as high as 15.65 μmol/g/h. Various characterizations demonstrate that Pt nanoparticles have a significant photothermal effect that can increase the catalyst surface temperature, and improve the performance and electron transport rate of the catalyst. Additionally, Pt nanoparticles and Sr 2 Nb 2 O 7 nanosheets form heterojunctions , which facilitate the separation of photogenerated carriers and aggregation of photogenerated electrons on the Pt nanoparticles. Pt nanoparticles become new reactive sites that have a strong adsorption impact on the key intermediate ∗CO and reduce the reaction energy barrier of ∗CHO generation. The results revealed that the synergy between electron accumulation, strong adsorption of ∗CO, and reduction of the reaction potential of ∗CHO are the reasons for the efficient and selective conversion of CO 2 to CH 4 . This work provides novel insights into the role of metal-based cocatalysts in selective CO 2 photoconversion and new ideas for designing efficient CO 2 conversion systems.

Use of 3D photocatalytic reactor has been widely explored for development of efficient photocatalytic systems. In the present study, a bionic palisade cells BiOBr/Sr 2 Nb 2 O 7 /Al 6 Si 2 O 13 photocatalytic reactor with high strength was prepared through combination of 3D printing technology and solvothermal method. The carefully designed and optimized bionic palisade cell structure exhibited a periodic porous structure with high surface area. The controllable periodic structure effectively regulated the internal photon transfer and mass transfer. Photon transfer ensured that light is fully scattered within the structure, which improved light utilization. High mass transfer ensured smooth flow of reactant inside the structure, which increased reactant adsorption on the surface of photocatalysts. The interface electric field of the BiOBr/Sr 2 Nb 2 O 7 p-n heterojunction effectively separated the photogenerated electrons and holes. The BOB/SNO/ASO structure had high photocatalytic CO 2 reduction performance under the simulated sunlight. The CO yield for the reaction was 13.68 μmol/g/h, whereas that of CH 4 yield was 6.37 μmol/g/h. Therefore, the findings of the present study provide a basis for design and preparation of high-performance 3D photocatalytic reactors.
