In this study, a hydrothermal synthesis was developed to prepare a thin titanium silicalite-1 catalyst layer in the internal channels of the honeycomb cordierite support, which was used in a continuous heterogeneous reaction. The as-prepared thin TS-1 catalyst layer was characterized by SEM, XRD, UV-vis and ATR-FTIR methods. Multiple hydrothermal syntheses were used for controlling the crystalline growth to optimize catalytic activity and lifetime. Moreover, a monolithic TS-1/cordierite reactor with external looping was utilized to investigate the characteristics of the continuous heterogeneous ammoximation reaction without the organic solvent tert-butanol (TBA). The reaction results showed that the conversion of cyclohexanone and selectivity of oxime approached more than 0.96 and 0.98, respectively. When compared with the reaction using TBA as the reaction solvent, the activity of the monolithic TS-1/cordierite showed no differences except for a longer lifetime.

Recently, all-inorganic cesium lead halide (CsPbX 3 (X = Cl, Br, and I) perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) have been extensively investigated for photocatalytic carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) reduction reaction (CO 2 RR). However, because the pristine CsPbX 3 NCs suffer from severe radiative recombination, it is imperative to elaborately design heterostructures to separate electron-hole pairs for achieving efficient CO 2 RR. Herein, palladium (Pd) nanoparticles (NPs) are anchored on CsPbBr 3 NCs by a photo-assisted approach for the first time. The as-prepared CsPbBr 3 @Pd NCs not only build Schottky junctions at the CsPbBr 3 /Pd interfaces that promote the carrier separation and suppress the radiative recombination, but also exhibit lower energy barriers for photocatalytic CO 2 RR than pristine CsPbBr 3 NCs according to the density functional theory calculations. The electron consumption rate reaches a striking peak of 46.2 µmol g −1 h −1 by using CsPbBr 3 @Pd NCs as photocatalysts for CO 2 RR, which is 4.8-fold of the counterpart of pristine CsPbBr 3 NCs. This work not only presents a photo-assisted strategy for anchoring Pd NPs on CsPbBr 3 NCs, but also demonstrates the great potential of using CsPbBr 3 @Pd NCs for photocatalytic CO 2 RR.

Z-scheme Cu 2 O-(rGO-TiO 2 ) photocatalyst was successfully synthesized via a simple three-step approach for 2,2′,4,4′-tretrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE47) reductive removal under simulated solar irradiation. Unlike the traditional heterojunction , the addition of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) enhanced the redox ability of Cu 2 O-TiO 2 by increasing charge transfer. When modifying Cu 2 O films by adding 1% rGO and coating with 70% TiO 2 , the resulting Cu 2 O-(rGO-TiO 2 ) exhibited the best photocatalytic activity for BDE47 removal. The charge transfers of Cu 2 O-(rGO-TiO 2 ) were proven to follow a Z-scheme pathway through the electron paramagnetic resonance analysis. The degradation pathways of BDE47 were elucidated by identifying intermediate products via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography (GC). Photo-electrons (e − ) generated from the conduction band of Cu 2 O and hydrogen protons (H 0 ) reduced from H + in water were the main contributing elements for the removal of BDE47, which response to the ortho and para debromination . Ortho-Br of BDE47 was attacked by e − and BDE28 was the dominant debromination product on the first stage. Then e − and H 0 attacked ortho-Br and para-Br of BDE28 to form BDE15 and BDE8, respectively. The concentration of BDE8 was higher than that of BDE15, suggesting that H 0 played the most important role on the second debromination stage. An effective Cu 2 O-(rGO-TiO 2 )-based Z-scheme system for BDE47 debromination was proposed in this study, which may contribute to the development of novel green technologies.

Composite membrane separators are fabricated by coating one side of microporous polyethylene membrane with poly(methyl methacrylate) modified titanate nanoparticles that are synthesized through emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization of methacrylate-functionalized titanate nanoparticles. The formed composite membrane separators exhibit great thermal-shrinking resistance due to the introduction of thermal resistant titanate nanoparticles. After immersed into electrolyte solution, the swelling poly(methyl methacrylate) microspheres leads to the formation of gel electrolyte, thus stabilizing the electrolyte. Moreover, the porous structure of the coated layer can facilitate the swelling of electrolyte and the transport of lithium ions. The thus-assembled lithium ion battery shows an improved cycle performance and rate capability.

A novel La 0.9 Ca 0.1 Fe 0.9 Nb 0.1 O 3-δ (LCFNb) perovskite for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) anode is prepared by means of the citrate-nitrate route and composited with Ce 0.8 Sm 0.2 O 1.9 (SDC) by impregnation method to form nano-scaled LCFNb/SDC anode catalytic layers. The single cells with LCFNb and LCFNb/SDC impregnated anodes both achieve relatively high power output with maximum power densities (MPDs) reaching up to 610, 823 mW·cm −2 in H 2 at 800 °C, respectively, presenting a high potential of LCFNb for use as SOFCs anode. The power outputs of the single cells with LCFNb/SDC composite anode in CO and syngas (CO H 2 mixture) are almost identical to that in H 2 at each testing temperature. This composite anode also presents excellent durability in both H 2 and CO for as long as 50 h, showing desirable anti-reduction and carbon deposition resistance abilities. Besides, the cell output is stable in 100 ppm H 2 S H 2 atmospheres for 20 h at a current density of 600 mA·cm −2 with negligible sulfur accumulation on the anode surface . Hence, a novel iron based perovskite LCFNb anode with remarkable cell performance, carbon deposition resistance and sulfur poisoning tolerance for SOFCs is successfully obtained.

Wide-bandgap photovoltaics (WBPV) could not only provide electrical energy by photoelectronic conversion of the invisible part of the solar spectrum, but also usually had the unique advantage of high open circuit voltage ( V oc). In this work, we reported a novel HTM based on tetrakis (N-phenothiazine) Spirobifluorene (Spiro-PT), its HOMO energy level could be well matched with MAPbBr 3 perovskite HOMO energy level. This HTM could effectively suppress nonradiative recombination, which leads to an increase in the photovoltage of WBPV to more than 1.41 V. As a result, the n-i-p mesoscopic structured WBPV achieved a champion PCE of 7.36% as well as excellent operational stability exhibiting 91% of initial efficiency after 500 h continuous illumination without encapsulation. Based on the high V oc of the MAPbBr 3 /Spiro-PT device, the photovoltaic electrochromic device showed a response speed (the average coloring time was 40 s and the bleaching time was 272 s) and high average visible light transmittance contrast (about 37% in 450–780 nm), the corresponding electrochromic device with maximum dynamic contrast up to 46% at 600 nm between bleached and colored states. This WBPV-powered electrochromic system could provide a pathway towards stand-alone smart window technique for future energy-saving buildings.

A plasmon-enhanced upconversion composite Y 2 O 3 :Er/Au@TiO 2 (SYE/A@T) with a three-dimensional starlike morphology is prepared and then mixed with submicron TiO 2 (200 nm) to form a multifunctional scattering layer in TiO 2 -based dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). In such starlike micronsized upconverter, Au nanoparticle-assisted plasmon effect can intensify the upconversion emission of Y 2 O 3 :Er, and simultaneously TiO 2 coating can improve the charge transport within SYE/A@T. Therefore, the SYE/A@T shows extended light-absorbing range to near-infrared region and improved light-scattering ability, leading to an improved photovoltaic performance of DSSCs. With the optimum mixing ratio, a conversion efficiency of 8.62% is attained, which is a significant improvement of 27.6% compared with the cell without adding SYE/A@T. Our work provides a feasible strategy to prepare an upconversion composite with plasmon-enhanced emission and enable this composite to accommodate the DSSCs system and improve the conversion efficiency of DSSCs.

Modified by Sm0.2Ce0.8O2−δ (SDC) nanoparticles (NPs), SmBaCo2O5+δ (SBCO) double perovskite oxide is evaluated as a promising cathode material for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells. The SDC NPs are epitaxially grown on the surface of SBCO with (220) planes of SDC aligning smoothly to (020) or (100) planes of SBCO, forming a tight, coherent connection at the interface. The influence of this modification on thermal expansion, oxygen diffusion, electrical conductivity and electrochemical properties is investigated thoroughly in this work. The designed SBCO–SDC cathode material demonstrates a lower thermal expansion coefficient (TEC), ∼16.4 × 10−6 K−1, than that of the unmodified SBCO, ∼20.9 × 10−6 K−1. While SDC coating results in a decreased total electrical conductivity, it facilitates oxygen bulk diffusion and improves the surface exchange reaction kinetics. Coating with SDC NPs can accelerate the rate-determining process of dissociation of the absorbed molecular oxygen, especially at intermediate temperatures. Accordingly, the constructed symmetrical cell with the La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.2O3−δ (LSGM) electrolyte shows lower polarization resistance values, if the SBCO–SDC cathode is utilized. Also, the LSGM electrolyte-supported (300 μm) full cell is found to deliver a high power density of 800 mW cm−2 at 800 °C. Owing to the strong and coherent interfacial connection, the developed cathode demonstrates a relatively steady electrochemical performance.

TiO 2 nanocrystals are widely used in photoanodes for quantum dot solar cells (QDSCs) owing to their chemical stability and suitable energy band structure. However, surface defects and grain boundaries of TiO 2 nanocrystals photoanodes allow high surface charge recombination, which limits the performance of QDSCs. In this work, an ultrathin TiO 2 layer is introduced to the surface of TiO 2 photoanodes by atomic layer deposition (ALD). The ultrathin layer not only reduces the surface defects of TiO 2 nanoparticles and strengthens the connection between adjacent nanoparticles to suppress the charge recombination for improving the electron collection efficiency (η cc ), but also increases the surface energy of photoanodes to load more quantum dots (QDs) for enhancing the light harvesting efficiency (LHE). As a result, the solar cell based on CdS/CdSe QDs with ALD treatment exhibits an efficiency of 5.07% that is much higher than that of the cells without modification (4.03%).

Perovskite has shown attractive optoelectronic performances and is a potential material in lighting, anti-counterfeiting, sensor, and other optoelectronic devices. Recently, spin-coating has been widely used in fabricating high-performance perovskite films, but it is difficult to process and apply in practice. In this paper, the CsPbBr 3 /Cs 4 PbBr 6 composite perovskite quantum dots with photoluminescence quantum yield of 36% and high storage stability were prepared by using room temperature ligand-assisted precipitation method and controlling the proportion of CsBr/PbBr 2 . In addition, the composite perovskite was ground and dispersed in the inks system. After adjusting the composition and ratio of the resin components, the inks were suitable for screen printing with a viscosity of 2439 mPa•s, an initial dryness of 25 mm/30 s, and a thorough dryness of 100 s/100 μm. By printing, the perovskite films exhibited high coverage, strong green emission, and outstanding fluorescence recovery ability after exposure to water. Screen printing perovskite inks have the characteristic of being patternable, which provides a solution for preparing a perovskite film in the application.

The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of tin-based perovskite solar cells (TPSCs) was significantly improved when polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) was doped into the formamidinium tin iodide (FASnI 3 ) layer with an optimized doping mass. After doping, the FASnI 3 grain size, film smoothness and average carrier lifetime were largely enhanced, which demonstrate the crystallization quality improvement to FASnI 3 . The champion PCE of the enhanced TPSC was improved to 7.83%, which is relatively 27% larger than that of the control, 6.15%. After continuous storage for 15 days, the PCE of the enhanced TPSC remained 74.4% of its original value. Using the finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulation method, we demonstrated that the light absorption ratio of the FASnI 3 :PVP layer was larger than that of the FASnI 3 , and the photo-generated carrier density of the enhanced TPSC was approximately 2% ∼ 3% larger than that of the control. The ultimate efficiency of the enhanced TPSC was calculated to be 26.23%. It is potential to dope PVP into FASnI 3 to further enhance the device performance of TPSCs.

Hybrid direct carbon fuel cells (HDCFCs) present its inherent and unparalleled advantages in converting chemical energy from organic waste, biomass, and coal directly into clean energy with high efficiency. However, the progress of HDCFC technology continues to be hampered by the sluggish anode reaction kinetics. Herein, an effective design strategy for HDCFC anode is proposed, a Cu-modified Sr 2 Fe 1.3 Cu 0.2 Mo 0.5 O 6-δ (SFCM) perovskite oxide is developed to meet the requirements of intermediate-temperature HDCFC anode. The Cu-doping SFCM anode demonstrates excellent redox structural stability and catalytic activity. In addition, the electrolyte-supported single cell with Cu-doping SFCM anode has improved the peak power density from 285.5 mW cm −2 to 489.3 mW cm −2 at 800 °C with activated carbon as the fuel. The significantly enhanced anode catalytic activity is primarily due to the improved interfacial activity and chemical adsorption of CO. Therefore, the present work shows an effective strategy for designing and developing novel high-performance HDCFCs anode materials .
