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.

Magnesium hydroxide (MgH 2 ) has excellent reversibility and high capacity, and is one of the most promising materials for hydrogen storage in practical applications. However, it suffers from high dehydrogenation temperature and slow sorption kinetics. Rare earth hydrides and transition metals can both significantly improve the de/hydrogenation kinetics of MgH 2 . In this work, MgH 2 –Mg 2 NiH 4 –CeH 2.73 is in-situ synthesized by introducing Ni@CeO 2 into MgH 2 . The unique coating structure of Ni@CeO 2 facilitates homogeneous distribution of synergetic CeH 2.73 and Mg 2 NiH 4 catalytic sites in subsequent ball milling process. The as-fabricated composite MgH 2 -10 wt% Ni@CeO 2 powders possess superior hydrogenation/dehydrogenation characteristics, absorbing 4.1 wt% hydrogen within 60 min at 100 °C and releasing 5.44 wt% H 2 within 10 min at 350 °C. The apparent activation energy of MgH 2 -10 wt% Ni@CeO 2 is determined to be 84.8 kJ/mol and it has favorable hydrogen cycling stability with almost no decay in capacity after 10 cycles.

A novel method for identification of four isomers of dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) was reported by their different perturbation effects on a Briggs-Rauscher (BR) oscillating system. In the system, macrocyclic nickel (II) complex NiL(ClO 4 ) 2 is used as the catalyst, where the ligand L in the complex is 5,7,7,12,14,14‑hexemethyl‑1,4,8,11‑tetraazacyclotetradeca‑4,11‑diene. By putting equal amount of the same concentrations of four isomers (1,4‑dihydroxynaphthalene (1,4-DHN), 1,5‑dihydroxynaphthalene (1,5-DHN), 2,3‑dihydroxynaphthalene (2,3-DHN) and 2,7‑dihydroxynaphthalene (2,7-DHN)) into BR system, the system could or couldn't be perturbed, being reflected in quite different oscillating behaviors after addition of isomers. These four isomers were identified in their concentration range of 5.0 × 10 −6 to 2.5 × 10 −4 mol/L. An explanation of such perturbation mechanism is that, 1,4-DHN couldn't be oxidized by BR matrix, but 1,5-DHN, 2,3-DHN and 2,7-DHN could be oxidized by HOO to yield 5‑Hydrox‑1,4‑naphthoquinone, phthalic acid and 6,7‑dihydroxyperylene‑1,12‑quinone (DHPQ), respectively.

Novel triarylamine-based coordination-saturated aryl Pd(II) halide complexes ligated by PEt 3 , PCy 3 , and P( o -tol) 3 were successfully synthesized by direct oxidative addition of aryl halide to the corresponding Pd(0) precursors. Suzuki–Miyaura coupling polymerization of 2-(7-halide-9,9-dioctylfluoren-2-yl)−1,3,2-dioxaborinane with these Pd(II) complexes as initiators was investigated for the synthesis of poly(fluorene)s with triarylamine end group. Pd(II) complexes with PCy 3 or P( o -tol) 3 exhibited catalytic activity and realized the catalyst-transfer polycondensation at 75 °C and room temperature, respectively, while the polymerization using Pd(II) catalyst ligated by PEt 3 did not proceed, which indicated that the bulky phosphine ligands could facilitate the reductive elimination and further promote the polymerization. In addition, the dimeric Pd(II) complex with P( o -tol) 3 can convert into monomeric Pd(II) intermediate with an open coordination site, which had a higher activity. The end groups of the afforded polyfluorene were analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry, in which the Ar/H end groups are indicative of the catalyst-transfer polymerization. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ordered mesoporous Fe/TiO 2 was prepared by an evaporation-induced self-assembly method. The iron ions were in situ embedded in the pore wall of the TiO 2 framework. The catalyst has excellent light-assisted Fenton catalytic performance under UV and visible light irradiation. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy results showed that the TiO 2 samples have an ordered two-dimensional hexagonal pore structure and an anatase phase structure with high crystallinity . The ordered pore structure of the TiO 2 photocatalyst with a large specific surface area is beneficial to mass transfer and light harvesting. Furthermore, iron ions can be controlled by embedding them into the TiO 2 framework to prevent iron ion loss and inactivation. After five cycles, the reaction rate of the ordered mesoporous Fe/TiO 2 remained unchanged, indicating that the material has stable performance and broad application prospects for the purification of environmental pollutants .

Pd-based nanostructures with stepped facets possess potential applications in many fields, particularly in catalysis. Generally, crystal growth often only allows the formation of nanostructures with energetically non-stepped facets, so it is desirable to develop methods that can be used to prepare Pd-based nanostructures bounded by stepped facets. Herein, penta-fold twinned (PFT) Au@Pd nanobipyramids (NBs) with stepped {100} facets were synthesized through growing Pd on Au decahedral nanoparticles (NPs) in polyol. During the growth of Au@Pd NBs, Br− was a critical factor, because it has appropriate affinity for the Pd atom and adjusted the growth rate ratio along 〈110〉 and 〈100〉, resulting in the formation of Au@Pd NBs with stepped {100} facets. The product shape and size could be tailored by controlling the reaction conditions. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), high angle annular dark field (HAADF) imaging and scanning transmission electron microscopy EDS (STEM-EDS) were used to investigate the structure and growth of the Au@Pd NBs. A growth mechanism involving two stages was elucidated. In the first stage, the growth of Pd clearly occurred along both 〈110〉 and 〈100〉. In the second stage, the growth along 〈110〉 was faster than that along 〈100〉. Furthermore, we also demonstrated that the as-prepared Au@Pd NBs had high catalytic activity, compared with Pd nanocubes and Pd–Au–Pd segmental nanorods.

The two-stage removal process of tetracycline (TC) in aqueous solutions using a novel photocatalyst based on nano-zero-valent iron (NZVI), g-C3N4 and expanded graphite by carbon layer (EGC) is reported for the first time. The composite (NZVI/g-C3N4@EGC) exhibits remarkable adsorption, reduction ability and visible light activity over the reaction course. Compared with pristine g-C3N4 (25.9%) and pure NZVI (45.9%), NZVI/g-C3N4@EGC achieves high degradation efficiency of TC (98.5%) due to the formation of a heterogeneous photo-Fenton system. This study shows that synergistic effects are achieved in the reaction system, including maintaining the reduction ability of NZVI and enhancing the photocatalytic activity of g-C3N4 by facilitating the separation of photogenerated electrons (e−) and holes (h+). TC removal involved a two-stage process of adsorption–reduction and photo-degradation. The quencher experiments determined that holes (h+) and superoxide radicals (˙O2−) are the major reactive species in the degradation of TC. The degradation pathways of TC were proposed based on the analysis of the intermediates. In addition, NZVI/g-C3N4@EGC revealed a high stability in a five-cycle test and good magnetic properties for facile separation from aqueous solutions. From an application viewpoint, NZVI/g-C3N4@EGC has favorable prospects in the direction of the photocatalytic degradation of antibiotic wastewater.

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.

Cobalt nanoparticles (Co NPs) attached to graphene modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) were prepared by electrodepositing. Atomic force microscopy image showed that many Co NPs with relative homogeneous size were formed and uniformly dispersed on the graphene/GCE. X-ray diffraction spectrum showed the as-prepared Co NPs was of the cubic phase of metal Co. The electrochemical behavior and electrocatalytic performances of the Co NPs/graphene/GCE towards the oxidation of cysteine and N-acetyl cysteine were evaluated by cyclic voltammograms, chronoamperometry and amperometric method . These results showed a good electrocatalytic activity for the two amino acids . The good catalytic activity , high sensitivity and well stability made this Co NPs/graphene/GCE to be a promising electrode for constructing a nonenzymatic sensor.

Two kinds of TiO2 nanobelts were prepared from commercial P-25 powders via an alkaline hydrothermal method with and without an acid etching process. The uncauterized nanobelts (TNs) exhibited a smooth surface, and mixed phases of anatase and TiO2 (B), whereas the cauterized ones (CTNs) displayed a rough surface and a pure anatase structure. TNs and CTNs were then deposited onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface with a conductive adhesive (CA), and the resulting chemically modified electrodes exhibited electrocatalytic activities in the oxidation of nucleobases in a 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (PBS) at pH 7.4. For guanine and adenine, well-defined oxidation peaks were observed in voltammetric measurements at about +0.62 and +0.89 V, respectively, at a potential sweep rate of 100 mV s−1, whereas for cytosine, uracil and thymine, the voltammetric features were not obvious. The average surface coverages (Γ) of guanine and adenine on the CTNs/CA/GCE electrode were estimated to be 4.75 × 10−10 and 7.44 × 10−10 mol cm−2, respectively, which were about twice those at the TNs/CA/GCE electrode. The enhanced activity of the CTN-based electrode towards purine nucleobase oxidation was ascribed to the large specific surface area and anatase structures with enhanced (001) facets of the CTN that facilitated adsorption of the analytes onto the electrode surface and charge transport through the electrode surface layer.
