Modifying the back contact interface plays a key role in improving the efficiency of Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) solar cells. Aiming at the phase decomposition and carrier recombination issues in the CZTSSe/Mo back contact interface, an ultra-thin Mg(OH)2 intermediate layer was introduced between the Mo substrate and the CZTSSe absorber layer. The Mg(OH)2 intermediate layer effectively suppressed the interface phase decomposition reactions and inhibited the generation of interface secondary phases. Meanwhile, during the high-temperature selenization process, the Mg2+ doped into CZTSSe at the back contact interface, reducing the defects and band offset at the CZTSSe/Mo interface. The performance of the device was improved, with a significant increase in efficiency compared to the control device. This work highlights the modification effect of Mg(OH)2 for improving back contact and also provides an easy-handling method to achieve high-performance CZTSSe solar cells.

A series easily soluble polyarylates were synthesized from either 1,1-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-phenylethane or tetramethylbisphenol A with various aromatic diacid chlorides by the two-phase interfacial polycondensation. These polyarylates have the inherent viscositiesin the range of 0.36–0.97 dL/g, and their number-average and weight-average molecular weights determined by gel permeation chromatography are 14,200–43,200 and 31,900–102,500, respectively. All these polyarylates are readily soluble in a wide range of organic solvents, thus these polymers can be convenient to process into heat resistance films by cast, spin- or dip-coating. The polyarylates have the glass transition temperatures in the range of 165.0–201.6°C. The pendent phenyl-containing polyarylates reveal excellent thermal stability, and their initial degradation temperatures are all above 480°C and char yields at 700°C are 37.97–40.53% in nitrogen atmosphere. However, the polymers prepared from tetramethylbisphenol A have a large decrease in thermal stability, and their initial degradation temperatures in nitrogen are only about 440°C. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Biocides usually persist during municipal sewage treatment and are subsequently distributed into aquatic environments. To explore the capability of advanced oxidation processes for the rapid removal of biocides, we examined the total organic carbon (TOC) reduction of 4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenol (PCMX) with a combination of UV/O 3 . Moreover, the related important parameters, including the mass transfer coefficient and light utilization efficiency, in PCMX degradation were determined. The UV/O 3 experimental results showed a pronounced synergistic effect, leading to the nearly complete elimination of TOC within 75 min. Thus, the effect of operating variables was investigated as a function of pH, ozone dosage, bulk temperature and the initial concentration of PCMX. The efficiency of PCMX mineralization increased with an increase in ozone dose up to 3.1 g h −1 , and a decrease in the initial concentration from 250 to 100 mg L −1 . The optimal pH value was 4.0, and the preferred bulk temperature was 20 °C on the basis of the influence of temperature on reaction rate and ozone solubility. The major aromatic intermediates identified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry were 2,6-dimethylbenzene-1,4-diol, 2,6-dimethylbenzo-1,4-quinone, 2,6-bis(hydroxymethyl)benzo-1,4-quinone, and 2,6-dimethylbenzo-1,4-aldehyde. Quantitative determination of related carboxylic acid and inorganic anions was done by ion chromatography . On the basis of the identified reaction products, a possible degradation pathway for the UV/O 3 oxidation of PCMX in aqueous media is proposed.

4- N , N -Dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) was introduced into poly(ethyleneoxide)/oligo(ethylene glycol) (PEO/PEG) electrolytes for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). The improved photovoltaic performance of DMAP-doped DSCs was attributed to the integrated effects of the upward displacement of the TiO 2 band edge and the decrease in the electron recombination rate. Remarkably, the presence of DMAP suppresses electron recombination via two combined pathways involving the dissociation of triiodide to iodide by a complexation reaction and a modification of the surface state distribution in the band gap of TiO 2 . With the addition of DMAP, the open-circuit voltage enhances dramatically. The short-circuit photocurrent density has a small increase at low DMAP concentration and drops afterwards. The power conversion efficiency is 4.07%, which corresponds to a 63% increase over that of the DSC without DMAP.

Three gemini pyrrolidine-based ionic liquids, 1,1′-(butane-1,4-diyl)bis(1-alkylpyrrolidinium) bromide ([C n py-4-C n py][Br 2 ], n = 10, 12, 14), were synthesized. Their aggregation behavior in aqueous solution was systematically investigated by surface tension, electrical conductivity, and steady-state fluorescence. Compared with their corresponding monomers, N -alkyl- N -methylpyrrolidinium bromide (C n MPB), [C n py-4-C n py][Br 2 ], have higher surface activity. The special structure of [C n py-4-C n py][Br 2 ] that has a spacer in their hydrophilic head groups results in a lower surface excess concentration ( Γ max ) and a larger molecular cross-sectional area ( A min ). Electrical conductivity studies show a lower degree of counter-ion binding to the aggregates. A smaller aggregation number ( N agg ) is observed by the pyrene fluorescence quenching method. A series of thermodynamic parameters ( Δ G agg 0 , Δ H agg 0 , - T Δ S agg 0 ) of aggregation derived from electrical conductivity indicate that the aggregation of [C n py-4-C n py][Br 2 ] is enthalpy-driven, while aggregation of C n MPB is entropy-driven at low temperatures but enthalpy-driven at high temperatures.

Catalytic hydrolysis of ammonia borane (NH 3 BH 3 , AB) is considered to be a promising, secure and effective route for hydrogen generation on-demand. Developing highly efficient catalysts for hydrogen production from AB hydrolysis is of considerable important but remains a huge challenge. Herein, a series of bimetal PtNi nanoparticles (NPs) were immobilized on mesoporous MCM-41 via a facile impregnation-reduction method. Attributing to the regular pore channel and high surface area of the mesoporous zeolite support as well as the structural property of PtNi alloys and the synergistic effect between Pt and Ni atoms, the Pt 0.4 Ni 0.6 /MCM-41 catalyst exhibits superb catalytic activity towards hydrogen generation from AB hydrolysis. The turnover frequency (TOF) value reaches 939 mol H2 (mol Pt ∙min) −1 at 298 K, which is more than 3 times higher than that of monometallic Pt/MCM-41. In addition, the Pt 0.4 Ni 0.6 /MCM-41 catalyst exhibits superior catalytic performance in tandem hydrogenation of 4-nitrophenol by coupling with hydrolytic dehydrogenation of AB.

In this study, 3,4,3′,4′-Tetrachlorobiphenyl (PCB77) contaminated soil was treated by ball milling. Experimental results have demonstrated that reagent-to-soil ratio, revolution speed, milling ball size, ball-to-soil ratio, soil moisture and initial concentration of PCB77 all influenced the degradation of PCB77. The removal efficiency of PCB77 could reach 79.6 % after 12 h of ball milling (ball-soil ratio 8:1, revolution speed 250 rpm, reagent-soil ratio 1:12). After ball milling, the size of soil particles decreased significantly, while the specific surface area and pore size increased. Based on the degradation byproducts determined by GC–MS, the possible degradation pathway of PCB77 by ball milling was inferred. Momentously, we attempted to combine ball mill and non-thermal plasma (NTP) to treat PCB77-contaminated soil. The contaminated soil pretreated by ball milling exhibited a higher removal efficiency of PCB77 in subsequent Dielectric barrier discharges (DBD) treatment compared to untreated soil. Quantitative detection of total organic carbon and inorganic chlorine in soil revealed that plasma technology exhibits superior capabilities in degradation mineralization and dechlorination of PCB77 compared to ball milling. The innovative technology not only efficiently enhances the removal efficiency of PCB77 but also eliminates the risk of secondary pollution introduced by reagents used in ball milling, thereby presenting a novel and effective strategy for soil remediation.

This study successfully synthesized Na 5 Y(WO 4 ) 4 doped with Sm³⁺, Pr³⁺, and Tb³⁺ using a high-temperature solid-state method. Photoluminescence spectra revealed that Na 5 Y(WO 4 ) 4 :Sm³⁺ phosphors emits a strong red glow at 646 nm under the excitation of 405 nm, and has an extremely high quantum yield, suggesting their suitability for plant growth LED lighting applications. In contrast, Na 5 Y(WO 4 ) 4 :Pr³⁺ phosphors displayed a lower efficiency but still aligned well with the red-wavelength absorption spectra of plants. Additionally, Na 5 Y(WO 4 ) 4 :Tb³⁺ phosphors demonstrated strong green emission under UV light, indicating potential applications in fingerprint detection. The Site Occupancy Theory (SOT) was utilized to explain the preferential occupation of dopant ions, showing that Sm³⁺ and Tb³⁺ preferred Y1 sites, whereas Pr³⁺ favored Na2 sites.

The efficiency of earth-abundant kesterite Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) solar cells has been lagging behind the Shockley-Queisser limit primarily due to the presence of deep-level defects. These deep-level defects cause critical issues such as short carrier diffusion length, significant band tailing, and a large open-circuit voltage (VOC) deficit, ultimately leading to low device efficiency. To address these issues, we propose a post-fabrication defect healing strategy by dip-coating the CZTSSe film in dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent. Immersing the absorber layer in DMF (a polar solvent), neutralizes CuSn antisite defects through chemical bonding and facilitates the formation of a dense, smooth CZTSSe film with larger grain size. Deep-level transient spectroscopy revealed a remarkable increase in carrier diffusion length from 93 nm (control device) to 142 nm (champion device), confirming the beneficial effect of solvent-assisted post-treatment on mitigating CuSn antisite defects. The reduction in defect densities led to a decrease in VOC deficit by up to 289 mV, accompanied by an increased champion device efficiency of 11.4%. This work highlights the huge potential of the DMF post-treatment strategy for defect healing in CZTSSe solar cells.

Aspergillus carbonarius , a common food-contaminating fungus, produces ochratoxin A (OTA) and poses a risk to human health. This study aimed to assess the inhibitory activity of tea tree essential oil and its main components, Terpene-4-ol (T4), α-terpineol (αS), and 3-carene (3C) against A. carbonarius . The study showed αS and T4 were the main antifungal components of tea tree essential oil, which primarily inhibit A. carbonarius growth through cell membrane disruption, reducing antioxidant enzyme activities (catalase, peroxidase, superoxide dismutase) and interrupting the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Furthermore, αS and T4 interacted with enzymes related to OTA biosynthesis. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics show that they bound mainly to P450 with a minimum binding energy of −7.232 kcal/mol, we infered that blocking the synthesis of OTA precursor OTβ. Our hypothesis was preliminarily verified by the detection of key substances in the OTA synthesis pathway. The results of UHPLC-QTOF-MS 2 analysis demonstrated that T4 achieved a degradation rate of 43 % for OTA, while αS reached 29.6 %, resulting in final breakdown products such as OTα and phenylalanine. These results indicated that α-terpinol and Terpene-4-ol have the potential to be used as naturally safe and efficient preservatives or active packaging to prevent OTA contamination.

Antibiotics play an essential function in treating various diseases. However, their overuse has led to water pollution and food safety issues. This work discusses a highly sensitive ratiometric fluorescent flexible sensor based on multifunctional 4-MU@ZIF-8@PLA-PEG composite film prepared using a low-toxicity, eco-friendly and self-assembly method. The sensor combines the luminescent properties and structural tunability of ZIF-based composites with the processability and flexibility of polymers. The 4-MU@ZIF-8@PLA-PEG sensor can detect tetracycline (TC), oxytetracycline (OTC), chlortetracycline hydrochloride (CTC⋅HCl), and doxycycline hydrochloride (DOX⋅HCl) with dual-emission ratiometric fluorescence, exhibiting a visible color change from blue to yellow, with detection limits of 0.058 nM, 16.806 nM, 2.113 nM and 20.510 nM, respectively. The fluorescence characteristics exhibit excellent linear relationships with TC detection in tap water and milk, and show inhibition rates of 87.27 % and 76.61 % against E. coli and S. aureus . With its antibacterial activity, visual detection, high sensitivity, and short detection time, this sensor has significant potential for detecting antibiotics in aquatic environments and food safety applications.

Background The active ingredient of Gastrodia elata , 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (4-HBd), can rapidly enter the brain and undergo massive oxidation to produce the metabolite 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HBA), which has no significant activity after equal dose gavage. It is crucial to clarify the metabolic pathway of 4-HBd and its correlation with the anti IS mechanism. Objective To explore the possible mechanism of 4-HBd in clearing ROS and protecting BBB from oxidative stress damage during brain metabolism from the perspective of ROS response. Method A rat model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury and a cellular oxidative stress response model were replicated to simulate the accumulation process of ROS in the brain. The changes in ROS and peroxidation products before and after 4-HBd intervention were detected, and the changes in oxidative metabolism were also measured to confirm the correlation between antioxidant stress damage and ROS capture/clearance in oxidative metabolism. Result 4-HBd has significant antioxidant stress resistance both in vitro and in vivo, and can reduce the levels of MDA and 4-HNE in ischemic brain tissue. It can capture O2·- and ·OH in vitro and use the captured ROS to oxidize and metabolize 4-HBA. Conclusion The oxidative metabolism process of 4-HBd in the brain is one of its mechanisms for exerting antioxidant stress damage and protecting BBB.
