We try to synthesize In x Ga 1−x Sb nanowires on silicon (100) substrate using InSb and GaSb as source materials and we succeeded. Au film was used as catalysts. The experiment is simple and repeatable. The diameter of the grown nanowires is 60–200 nm and up to 10 microns in length. The grown nanowires have good crystallinity. Due to the doping of indium, we found that the XRD peaks of nanowires were shifted. We have fabricated fully nanostructured device using ultra-long Ag nanowires as electrodes for the I–V characteristic study, and found that the device has photoresponse characteristics and the I–V characteristic curve was asymmetric, we explain that it was due to the asymmetry of this fully nanostructured devices.

The evolution of amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) into crystals in ethanol/water binary solvents under ambient temperature was investigated, and it was found to depend on the volume ratio of ethanol to water (R). Calcite remained dominant when the amount of water was high (R = 1/3). A slight change in the amount of ethanol (R = 3/1) could lead to a dramatic change in the polymorph from calcite to aragonite. However, when poly (allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) was added at R = 3/1, almost pure vaterite could be obtained, which has a specific morphological variation (from hollow microspheres to cloud-like). This study provides an alternative polymorphic route for the CaCO 3 mineral by using the evolution of ACC in different solvent environments, which provides some useful clues for understanding the importance of kinetic control of the morphologies and polymorphs of a wide range of inorganic materials. In addition, this simple mild phase-controlled synthetic method could be scaled up as a green chemistry route for the industrial production of different polymorphs of CaCO 3 .

Na-doped melilite-type silicate Sr2MgSi2O7 was reported to display high oxide ion conductivity. In this work, through multiple complementary techniques including X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, solid-state 29Si and 23Na nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and DFT calculations of defect formation energies, we found that it is hard to replace Sr with Na in Sr2MgSi2O7, and the Sr2−xNaxMgSi2O7−0.5x compositions formed mixed crystalline Sr2MgSi2O7 and Na-containing glassy phases. AC impedance spectroscopy measurements indicated that the ionic conduction in Sr2−xNaxMgSi2O7−0.5x could be from Na+ ions in the glassy phase, instead of the oxide ions.

A novel mesoporous nanosphere functionalized with 3-(aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) and 2-(5-bromothiophen)imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline (5-Br-Tip) was synthesized (denoted as Tip-MSS). With the coordinating function of the 5-Br-Tip to lanthanide (Ln) ions, for the first time, LnL3(5-Br-Tip) complexes were linked to the mesoporous nanospheres. The derived materials, named Ln-Tip-MSS (Ln = Eu, Tb, Sm, Nd, Yb), were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, TEM, XRD (wide-angle and small-angle), N2 adsorption/desorption analysis, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Upon excitation in the ligand absorption, the Ln-Tip-MSS nanomaterials show characteristic visible (Eu, Tb, Sm) and NIR (Sm, Nd, Yb) luminescence (multicolor emission covered from 450 nm to 1400 nm spectral region). Of importance is that, with low cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility given by the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, the Eu-Tip-MSS was successfully applied to cell imaging in vitro based on the Eu3+ luminescence (under 405 nm excitation).

The supramolecular interaction between the water-soluble pillar[5]arene (WP[5]) as host and dopamine hydrochloride (DH) as guest was studied by spectrofluorometry . The fluorescence intensity of DH gradually decreased with increasing WP[5] concentration, and the possible interaction mechanism between WP[5] and DH was confirmed by 1 H NMR, 2D NOESY , and molecular modelling. Based on significant DH fluorescence, a highly sensitive and selective method for DH determination was developed for the first time. The fluorescence intensity was measured at 312 nm, with excitation at 285 nm. The effects of pH, temperature, and reaction time on the fluorescence spectra of the WP[5]-DH complex were investigated. A linear relationship between fluorescence intensity and DH concentration in the range of 0.07–6.2 μg mL − 1 was obtained. The corresponding linear regression equation is Δ F = 25.76 C + 13.56 (where C denotes the concentration in μg mL − 1 ), with the limit of detection equal to 0.03 μg mL − 1 and the correlation coefficient equal to 0.9996. This method can be used for the determination of dopamine in injection and urine samples. In addition, the WP[5]-DH complex has potential applications in fluorescent sensing and pharmacokinetics studies of DH.

The endowment of perm-selectivity for specific ions will further extend the applications of heterogeneous membrane. In this work, a side-chain type weak cationic polyelectrolyte, PVDF-g-PVP, was synthesized for surface hydrophobilization of heterogeneous anion-exchange membrane (AEM) in order to impart perm-selectivity between specific anions with different Gibbs hydration energy. After microstructure observation and chemical composition analyses by SEM, AFM, EA and FTIR, the perm-selectivity between specific anions, electrical resistance, transport number, limiting current density, surface homogeneity, as well as salt permeability of the modified AEMs were investigated. Series of electrodialysis experiments in SO 4 2– /Cl – system indicated that a significant perm-selectivity was indeed achieved by the attachment of PVDF-g-PVP coating. In particular, it was worth noting that only a small loss of membrane conductivity was observed after the functionalization. This should be closely related to the micro-phase separation morphology of the coating layer which was induced by the polarity difference between the main chains and side chains of PVDF-g-PVP. Besides, the chronopotentiometric analyses indicated surface homogeneity of the heterogeneous AEM was significantly enhanced and then effectively ameliorated concentration polarization behaviors at the membrane-solution interface. Meanwhile, the perm-selectivity for co-ions was also improved and suppressed back diffusion behaviors of salt driven by concentration gradient. In brief, the modifying scheme proposed in this work can effectively improve comprehensive transport properties of conventional heterogeneous AEM.

The search for a reusable material as an efficient and economic catalyst for hydrocarbon oxidation is an important field of research. In this study, we investigated the highly effective combination of support and metalloporphyrin provided by manganese tetraphenylporphyrin adsorbed onto a precursor of freshly precipitated aluminium hydroxide, followed by conversion to a manganese porphyrin/boehmite compound. This was characterized using FT-IR, UV–vis spectroscopic techniques, N 2 BET analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron micrograph technique and thermal analysis. Aerobic oxidation of cyclohexane has been investigated using the compound as a catalyst under mild conditions and in the absence of any solvent and reductant. The results indicate that it has higher catalytic activity than manganese tetraphenylporphyrin and the corresponding chitosan-supported catalyst. In particular, the catalyst exhibits good atom economy for cyclohexane oxidation, high catalyst turnover number, and good ketone and alcohol selectivity. In particular, it has excellent reusability, with no change in original catalytic activity; a quantity of catalyst containing only 1 mg of Mn TPP can be reused 8 times under the promotion of beomite (BM). In addition, we examined the reaction conditions for the use of such nanoparticle-supported manganese tetraphenylporphyrin as a mild and environmental friendly oxidation catalyst.

As one class of important functional materials, transition metal phosphides (TMPs) nanostructures show promising applications in catalysis and energy storage fields. Although great progress has been achieved, phase-controlled synthesis of cobalt phosphides nanocrystals or related nanohybrids remains a challenge, and their use in overall water splitting (OWS) is not systematically studied. Herein, three kinds of cobalt phosphides nanocrystals encapsulated by P-doped carbon (PC) and married with P-doped graphene (PG) nanohybrids, including CoP@PC/PG, CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG, and Co 2 P@PC/PG, are obtained through controllable thermal conversion of presynthesized supramolecular gels that contain cobalt salt, phytic acid, and graphene oxides at proper temperature under Ar/H 2 atmosphere. Among them, the mixed-phase CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG nanohybrids manifest high electrocatalytic activity toward both hydrogen and oxygen evolution in alkaline media. Remarkably, using them as bifunctional catalysts, the fabricated CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG || CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG electrolyzer only needs a cell voltage of 1.567 V for driving OWS to reach the current density at 10 mA cm −2 , superior to their pure-phase counterparts and recently reported bifunctional catalysts based devices. Also, such a CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG || CoP-Co 2 P@PC/PG device exhibits outstanding stability for OWS. This work may shed some light on optimizing TMPs nanostructures based on phase engineering, and promote their applications in OWS or other renewable energy options.

Herein, we report a novel responsive assembly system consisting of an amphiphilic drug fenspiride and β-cyclodextrin in host–guest approach. Fenspiride molecules can self-assembled into vesicles in aqueous solution. The obtained vesicles were characterized in detail by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Furthermore, such a vesicular structure will be destroyed upon the addition of β-cyclodextrin due to the formation of inclusion complexes by host–guest interactions. In addition, amylase is a digestive enzyme which can catalyze the breakdown of starch into sugars. Adding α-amylase into the system could release fenspiride molecules, and trigger the self-assembly of fenspiride molecules again. It is anticipated that this research will provide widespread applications in the fields of responsive materials and biochemistry related to enzyme-responsive model system and host–guest chemistry.

(Ba,Sr) 3 MgSi 2 O 8 :Eu 2+ , Mn 2+ phosphors with 430/505/660 nm tri-bands or 430/660 nm dual-bands emission were demonstrated in this work by controlling the appearence or not of green emitting intermediate phases, (Ba,Sr) 2 SiO 4 :Eu 2+ . Through varying the stoichiometric amount of SiO 2 in precursor, the coexistence of green emitting intermediate phase tended to be sensitive and diversified. Laser Microzone Raman spectrum was employed to look insight into the lattice stretch and the preferential occupation sites of Ba 2+ ions in Sr 3 MgSi 2 O 8 lattices. The local structure and the crystal field of Eu 2+ luminescent centers were found to be disturbed by distorted arrangement of cross-linked [MgO 6 ] octahedra and [SiO 4 ] tetrahedra. This mechanism approach provided some new insights to further understanding the adjustment strategy of green emitting intermediate phases in (Ba,Sr) 3 MgSi 2 O 8 :Eu 2+ , Mn 2+ phosphor potentially applied as red/blue dual-bands emitting or red/green/blue tri-bands emitting materials.

Ba 6 Na 2 M 2 Mn 2 O 17 (M=Nb, Ta) oxides were synthesized by high-temperature solid-state reaction. The compounds adopt 6-layer perovskite-related structure (referred to as 6C) in P 3 ̅ m 1, analogous to Ba 6 Na 2 Nb 2 P 2 O 17 . The 6C structure consists of cubic ( c ) BaO 3 layers and pseudo-cubic ( c' ) oxygen-vacancy-ordered BaO 2 layers stacked according to a sequence of c'ccccc . Ordering of oxygen vacancies in oxygen-deficient c' -BaO 2 layers leads to two successive isolated tetrahedral layers, which stabilize an unusual +5 oxidation state for Mn cations in the tetrahedral sites. In Ba 6 Na 2 M 2 Mn 2 O 17 , these two Mn 5+ O 4 layers are sandwiched by two single octahedral NaO 6 layers that connected by two successive octahedral NbO 6 layers, forming alternative 2:1-ordered (Ba 3 NaM 2 O 9 ) - and (Ba 3 NaMn 2 O 8 ) + perovskite-like units along the stacking direction. The Mn 5+ O 4 tetrahedral units act as a turquoise chromophore in Ba 6 Na 2 M 2 Mn 2 O 17 , making these two compounds potential turquoise-coloring materials for the cool pigments .

A series of manganese metalloporphyrins were prepared and tested in cyclohexane oxidation. It has been found that the manganese 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-nitrophonyl) porphyrin (Mn-TNPP) presents better catalytic performance. The Mn-TNPP was then immobilized on different supports, and characterized by UV–vis, FT-IR, XRD, TG/DTG and ICP. Among these supported Mn-TNPP catalysts, Mn-TNPP/ZnO exhibits the best selectivity to KA oil and higher turnover number in cyclohexane oxidation. The influence of the reaction conditions and the recycle of the catalysts are discussed. Mn-TNPP/ZnO catalyst presents the average cyclohexane conversion of 7.17%, KA oil selectivity of 91.18%, and the average catalytic turnover number of 6.53 × 10 4 after six times of recycle under 150 °C and 1.0 MPa.
