A series of luminescent Ln 3+ @bio-MOF-1 (Ln = Eu, Tb, bio-MOF-1 = Zn 8 (ad) 4 (BPDC) 6 O⋅2Me 2 NH 2 (ad = adeninate, BPDC = biphenyldicarboxylate)) are synthesized via postsynthetic cation exchange by encapsulating lanthanide ions into an anionic metal–organic framework (MOF), and their photophysical properties are studied. After loading 2-thenoyltrifluroacetone (TTA) as sensitized ligand by a gas diffusion (“ship-in-bottle”) method, it is found that the luminescent intensity of Eu 3+ is enhanced. Especially, when loading two different lanthanide cations into bio-MOF-1, the luminescent color can be tuned to close white (light pink) light output. Additionally, bio-MOF-1 and Eu 3+ @bio-MOF-1 are selected as representative samples for sensing metal ions . When bio-MOF-1 is immersed in the aqueous solutions of different metal ions , it shows highly sensitive sensing for Fe 3+ as well as Eu 3+ @bio-MOF-1 immersed in the DMF solutions of different metal ion. The results are benefit for the further application of functionalized bio-MOFs in practical fields.

In this work, a simple and highly sensitive electrochemical method was developed to detect luteolin based on thio-β-cyclodextrin functionalized graphene/gold nanoparticles modified glassy carbon electrode (SH-β-CD-GNs/AuNPs/GCE). The peak currents of luteolin on the SH-β-CD-GNs/AuNPs/GCE can be greatly enhanced compared to the SH-β-CD-GNs/GCE and the bare GCE. It suggests that the nanocomposite not only shows the excellent electrical properties of GNs and AuNPs but also exhibits higher enrichment ability of cyclodextrins via the host-guest interaction between cyclodextrin and luteolin . At the SH-β-CD-GNs/AuNPs/GCE, the peak currents increased linearly with the concentration of luteolin in the range of 10.0 pM to 10.0 μM. The detection limit was estimated to be 3.3 pM (S/N = 3), which was more sensitive or comparable with the previous electrochemical sensors for luteolin detection. The analytical performance of this sensor has been evaluated for the detection of luteolin in human serum with satisfactory results. Furthermore, the method might open up a new possibility by using the nanohybrids to monitor other flavonoids which can form host–guest complexes with cyclodextrins.

1,3-dioxolane (DOL) shows low interfacial impedance and high Coulombic efficiency, thus its polymer electrolytes have attracted extensive attention. In order to initiate DOL polymerization, catalyst amount of LiPF 6 is usually used rather than as the main lithium salt . Totally replacement of LiTFSI with low cost of LiPF 6 could bring the heat explosion and high viscosity when mixing DOL with 0.9 M LiPF 6 electrolyte (carbonate ester solvent). Here, based on the Lewis acid-base interaction, a new type of Lewis base, pyridine, is added to control the explosive polymerization of 1,3-dioxolane in LiPF 6 electrolyte. Through tuning the pyridine content, the gelling process and electrochemical properties could be controlled. It is demonstrated that the optimized monomer conversion and electrochemical window are up to 85.2 % and 4.6 V; meanwhile, the optimized conductivity and transfer number are 0.99 × 10 −3 S/cm (25 °C) and 0.68, respectively. The stable interface between PDOL and lithium metal anode could be proved by the stable over-potential (50mv, 700 h) at current density of 0.5 mA cm −2 . After 500 cycles at 2C, the assembled Li/PDOL@py 0.125 /LiFePO 4 battery delivers 115 mAh/g and 90 % capacity retention, with high average Coulombic efficiency of 99.83 %. The present results demonstrate the heat suppression role of pyridine toward mixing DOL with 0.9 M LiPF 6 electrolyte, which solves the heat and viscosity problems for PDOL based gelling polymer electrolytes .

A sensitive sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor was developed for the detection of avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV-J), which benefitted from multiple signal amplification involving graphene-perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic acid nanocomposites (GR-PTCA), nanocellulose-Au NP composites (NC-Au) and the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) catalytic reaction . GR-PTCA nanocomposites on glassy carbon electrodes served as the immunosensor platform. Due to their excellent electrical conductivity and abundant polycarboxylic sites, the GR-PTCA nanocomposites allowed fast electron transfer and good immobilization of primary antibodies, thereby affording a strong immunosensor signal in the presence of ALV-J. The detected signal could be further amplified by the introduction of NC-Au composites as a carrier of secondary antibodies (Ab 2 ) and by harnessing the catalytic properties of Au and ALP. Under optimized testing conditions, the electrochemical immunosensor displayed excellent analytical performance for the detection of ALV-J, showing a linear current response from 10 2.08 to 10 4.0 TCID 50 /mL (TCID 50 : 50% tissue culture infective dose) with a low detection limit of 10 1.98 TCID 50 /mL (S/N = 3). In addition to high sensitivity, the immunosensor showed very good selectivity, reproducibility and operational stability, demonstrating potential application for the quantitative detection of ALV-J in clinical diagnosis.

Lithium metal batteries based on solid electrolytes are considered as promising candidates with high energy density and safety. However, the weak solid-solid contact between electrolyte and electrode can easily lead to interface instability and lithium ions discontinuous migration, which seriously reduces the electrochemical performance of the battery. Herein, we construct a soft gel interfacial layer to improve the stability of the solid-solid interface between electrolyte and electrode by means of polyester-based monomers and imidazole-based ionic liquids. Based on this, garnet-type Li 6.4 La 3 Zr 1.4 Ta 0.6 O 12 (LLZTO) particles as inorganic ceramic filler were introduced in the layer to obtain composite electrolytes with high ionic conductivity (up to 1.1 × 10 −3 S/cm at 25 °C). As a result, the assembled lithium symmetric battery of Li|THCE-15%LLZTO|Li suggests excellent cycling stability with 700 h at 0.1 mA/cm 2 at 50 °C, and the lithium metal batteries of LFP|THCE-15%LLZTO|Li delivers high initial discharge capacity of 128.2 mA ·h/g with capacity retain of 75.48% after 150 cycles at 2 C. This work paves a new route to build safe and stable lithium metal batteries with synergistic introduction of composite electrolytes between electrolyte and electrode using soft gel interfacial layer and inorganic filler.

Ultra-small Au nanoparticles (<2 nm) supported on hollow silica nanospheres were successfully fabricated with the aid of chemical modification (–SH groups) or through simple immersion method, leading to supported catalysts Au/SH-HNS and Au/HNS. The resulting solid catalysts showed good thermal stability and the small particle sizes could be remained even at high temperature of 350 °C. Such catalysts were catalytically active in the oxidation of styrene using O2 as oxidant under 1 atm pressure. The catalytic results showed that the activity strongly depends on the Au loading amount, and the loading of 4–5 wt% led to the highest activity. Significant rate enhancement was observed with gold nanoparticles supported on pure silica in comparison with thiol modified silica nanospheres, suggesting the negative effects of thiol groups. The solid catalyst could be reused at least 8 reaction cycles without significant decrease in activity and selectivity. This study not only supplies an active, recoverable catalyst for the green transformation of styrene, but also demonstrates that the hollow silica nanosphere material has a superior ability in stabilizing metal nanoparticles against growth.

Mg-based alloy anodes suffer from severe corrosion in conventional electrolytes (KOH solution) and this substantially obstructs the cycle life, which is a great challenge for using them in the Ni-MH battery. Herein, a high concentration tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) aqueous electrolyte with a special hydrate structure is explored and enables excellent cycle stability and high capacity for Mg-based alloy anodes. In this electrolyte, the Mg 0.4 Ti 0.1 Ni 0.5 alloy anode delivers a maximum discharge capacity of 466 mAh g −1 , and maintains 210 mAh g −1 after 100 cycles owing to the reduced corrosion rate , which are much better than that in 6 M KOH electrolyte, being 425 mAh g −1 and 69 mAh g −1 , respectively. Furthermore, by in-situ forming Cu coating on the Mg 0.4 Ti 0.1 Ni 0.5 electrode surface during charging process with the adding 0.01 M of Cu(OH) 2 in TMAH electrolyte, the corrosion of the electrode is further suppressed and the reversible capacity can reach 313 mAh g −1 after 100 cycles. The high conducting Cu coating can also increase the rate capability of the electrode by promoting the charge transfer. Thus, using TMAH electrolytes provides a new approach to promote the electrochemical performances of Ni-MH batteries with Mg-based alloy anodes.

The reactive and stable catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction are highly desirable for low temperature fuel cells. The commercial oxygen reduction reaction electrocatalysts generally reply on noble metal based nanomaterials, which suffer from inherent cost and selectivity issues. At present, it still remains challenge for designing efficient non-noble metal-based oxygen reduction reaction electrocatalysts. Herein, we successfully synthesize Co nanoparticles supported on three-dimensionally N-doped holey graphene aerogels hybrids by the high-temperature calcination of the graphene aerogels-polyallylamine-Co II hybrids. The component optimized hybrids show the excellent electrocatalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction in alkaline media, which is comparable to commercial Pt/C electrocatalyst. Meanwhile, the hybrids also show eminent tolerance for CO and methanol, attributing to their excellent oxygen reduction reaction selectivity. The three-dimensionally interconnected structure of graphene aerogels, N-doping, uniform dispersion and high crystallinity of Co nanoparticles, and holey structure of graphene contribute to the striking oxygen reduction reaction activity of hybrids.

[PO 4 ] 3− possesses small microscopic second-order susceptibility and polarizability anisotropy, which inherently result in weak second-harmonic generation (SHG) and small birefringence. Herein, a new noncentrosymmetric phosphate, [C(NH 2 ) 3 ] 3 PO 4 ·2H 2 O, was successfully designed and synthesized by a solution evaporation method. [C(NH 2 ) 3 ] 3 PO 4 ·2H 2 O without metal ions is composed of planar conjugated guanidine cations and PO 4 tetrahedrons, which are connected by hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. Physical property measurements indicate that the title compound displays an SHG response of 1.5 × KH 2 PO 4 (KDP) and a larger birefringence (0.055@546.1 nm) compared with most reported ultraviolet nonlinear optical phosphates. Furthermore, first-principles calculations reveal that the π-conjugated planar [C(NH 2 ) 3 ] + cations and [PO 4 ] 3− groups are responsible for its excellent linear and NLO properties.

Flexible pressure sensors play an indispensable role in flexible electronics. Microstructures on flexible electrodes have been proven to be effective in improving the sensitivity of pressure sensors. However, it remains a challenge to develop such microstructured flexible electrodes in a convenient way. Inspired by splashed particles from laser processing, herein, a method for customizing microstructured flexible electrodes by femtosecond laser-activated metal deposition is proposed. It takes advantage of the catalyzing particles scattered during femtosecond laser ablation and is particularly suitable for moldless, maskless, and low-cost fabrication of microstructured metal layers on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Robust bonding at the PDMS/Cu interface is evidenced by the scotch tape test and the duration test over 10 000 bending cycles. Benefiting from the firm interface, the developed flexible capacitive pressure sensor with microstructured electrodes presents several conspicuous features, including a sensitivity (0.22 kPa −1 ) 73 times higher than the one using flat Cu electrodes, ultralow detection limit (<1 Pa), rapid response/recovery time (4.2/5.3 ms), and excellent stability. Moreover, the proposed method, inheriting the merits of laser direct writing, is capable of fabricating a pressure sensor array in a maskless manner for spatial pressure mapping.

Lithium metal is a promising anode material for rechargeable batteries with high energy density . However, the uncontrollable dendrite growth severely hinders the commercialization of Li metal anode . Inspired by the “leveling” mechanism in traditional electroplating, we demonstrate that boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) as a liquid electrolyte additive can level out Li protrusions and enable dendrite-free Li metal anodes. 2D BNNSs can automatically and continuously flatten Li deposits and accommodate volume changes during Li plating/stripping. B atoms in BNNS as Lewis acid sites interact with Lewis basic anions in electrolyte, reducing Li + concentration gradient and unifying Li deposition. The collect effects of BNNS additive give rise to dendrite-free Li anodes over 400 h and deep plating/stripping up to 35 mAh cm −2 , as well as potential application in sub-zero temperature batteries (−20 °C). Li–S full cells using BNNS electrolyte also exhibit improved performance. This simple and effective strategy is applicable to develop dendrite-free Li or other metal anodes in high-performance energy storage devices.

To meet the high demand for ceramic/superalloy composite structural components in various fields, an advanced high-temperature adhesion technique was firstly developed by preparing a novel inorganic/organic hybrid adhesive suitable for ZrO 2 and TC4 . Chemical bonding started to work at ∼600°C, and became the crucial bonding mechanism at elevated temperatures. The formation of ZrSiO 4 and Ti 5 Si 3 at the interfaces of two substrates not only increased the interfacial connection strength , but also formed two gradient layers with a size of ∼2 μm to effectively alleviate the difference of composition and performance between the adhesive and substrates. In the temperature range of 500–900°C, the matching degree of CTE among ZrO 2 , adhesive and TC4 is higher, and the maximum difference does not exceed 3×10 -6 K -1 . Meanwhile, the formation of a composite structure containing various ceramics (ZrO 2 , SiC and ZrB 2 ) and intermetallics (Ni–Si, Al–Ni), and the improvement of structural compactness of adhesive from 500 to 900°C greatly improved the bonding strength to the maximum value of 31.4 MPa at 900°C. Also, the adhesive pretreated at 900°C showed good thermal cycling resistance, and the strength was still higher than 15 MPa after 50 cycles. For cured adhesive, when used directly in an extreme environment, it can provide bonding strength not less than 5 MPa in the whole temperature range, indicating that the adhesive possessed potential emergency repair convenience. This work significantly broadened the application of high-temperature-resistant adhesion technology in the connection of dissimilar ceramics and alloys.
