Sodium super ion conductor (NASICON) structure materials, known for fast diffusion channels for Na + , are promising solid electrolyte materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, the high carbon content in the NASICON electrolyte materials originated from the carbothermal reduction (CR) reaction will cause short-circuit and self-discharge of the batteries. Herein, we developed a facile and straightforward two-stage calcining strategy to prepare Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP) with high purity and crystallinity. By precisely controlling the dosage of reducing agent and heat temperature, the purity of NVP can reach 99.97%. Moreover, the NVP film was prepared by the as-synthesized pure NVP powder via fast hot-pressing sinter, whose Vickers hardness is (5.0 ± 0.4) × 10 2 HV and relative density is 99.05%. This study provides a safe and facile strategy to prepare high-purity NVP powder and high-quality NVP films, which is of great significance in exploring NVP as a solid electrolyte for SIBs.

A new method was developed for the facile one-pot multicomponent construction of heterocycle-fused spiro compounds containing chromanone and pyrrolidinyl spirooxindoles, two potential pharmacophores, in one molecule through a decarboxylative 1,3-dipolar [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of carboxylic acid group-activated chromones 1 with isatin-derivated azomethine ylides based on molecular hybridization strategy. A wide variety of products with three contiguous stereocenters including a spiro quaternary stereocenter were smoothly prepared with high efficiency (up to 87% yield and 20:1 diastereomeric ratio). This method could offer libraries of architecturally diverse and multiple pharmacore collections, potentially useful in medicinal chemistry.

All-inorganic CsPb(I1-xBrx)3 perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have increasingly broken record power conversion efficiency (PCE), however the poor stability in humid environment is still a serious bottleneck. To suppress the humidity-caused rapid transformation from black phase to yellow phase, germanium (Ge) doping is introduced to improve the tolerance factor of CsPb1-xGexI2.85Br0.15 and its photoelectric performance. A combined investigation of the structural and optical properties reveals a successful substitution of lead (Pb) with Ge in the films as well as a champion PCE of 19.70% for the 1% Ge doped PSC. More significantly, the Ge doped device retained 91.5% of its initial efficiency after being stored in air for 500 hours without any encapsulation process, in contrast to the 83.7% for the undoped counterpart.

A series of lanthanide-rich oxyborates LiLn 6 O 5 (BO 3 ) 3 (LLnOB, Ln = Gd, Tb, Dy, and Ho) have been synthesized using high temperature solid state method. Their magnetic and magnetocaloric properties were investigated upon magnetic susceptibility ( χ ), magnetization ( M ), and isothermal magnetic entropy change ( −ΔS m ) measurements. The maximum − ΔS m, max of LiGd 6 O 5 (BO 3 ) 3 is 44.7 J kg −1 K −1 at 4 K and Δμ 0 H = 9 T, which is higher than the one of commercial Gd 3 Ga 5 O 12 (GGG, −ΔS m, max = 41.8 J kg −1 K −1 at 2 K for Δμ 0 H = 9 T). For LiHo 6 O 5 (BO 3 ) 3 , −ΔS m, max is 14.12 J kg −1 K −1 at 3 K and Δμ 0 H = 2 T, which is also larger than that of Ho 3 Ga 5 O 12 (HoGG, − ΔS m, max = 4.38 J kg −1 K −1 at 2 K for Δμ 0 H = 2 T) and Dy 3 Ga 5 O 12 (DGG, − ΔS m, max = 11.0 J kg −1 K −1 at 2 K for Δμ 0 H = 2 T). These results indicate that LiGd 6 O 5 (BO 3 ) 3 and LiHo 6 O 5 (BO 3 ) 3 may be competitive candidates for applications as magnetic refrigerants. Moreover, thermal stability, infrared spectrum (IR), and ultraviolet–visible-near-infrared diffuse reflectance spectrum (UV–Vis-NIR) were carried out to characterize the title compounds.

Poly(3-thiophene acetic acid) (PTAA) nanowires are synthesized in a high yield by electrochemical polymerization, with diameters of about 200 nm and lengths of tens of micrometres. In the reaction systems, the water soluble macromolecules hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC), chitosan (Cs) and polyacrylamide (PAM) are added respectively as templates through a dip-coating process, where the macromolecules are spread on an indium tin oxide glass which is used as the working electrode. However, when polyethylene glycol (PEG) is used, only a PTAA film can be obtained. Therefore the interactions between template macromolecules and TAA monomers play a key role in the formation of PTAA nanowires and the dip-coating process presents an effective way to produce 1D conductive polymer materials with controllable shape. The optical, electrochemical and surface properties are also studied respectively to compare the performances of PTAA film and nanowires, where the latter indicates good electrochemical responsiveness and evidently increased hydrophobicity.

We reported that the phase conversion of the micelles in aqueous solution prepared by sodium oleate (NaOA) and 3-(diethylamino)-propylamine (DEAPA) in the presence of carbon dioxide. This micellar structure is very sensitive to CO2 and the pH value of the solution is continuously reduced with the continuous introduction of carbon dioxide. When pH > 10.2, the mixed solution of NaOA and DEAPA is mainly in the form of spherical micelles; when the 10.2 > pH > 9.6, the mixed solution mainly in the worm-like micelles (WLM), where the solution has a significant viscosity change; when the 9.6 > pH > 9.1, the NaOA and DEAPA mixed solution becomes the aqueous two-phase system (ATPS), which is composed of two layers, the upper layer is the vesicle structure and the lower layer is the WLM structure; when the pH between 9.1 > pH > 9.0, NaOA and DEAPA mixed solution form vesicles, thus realizing the regulation of CO2 on the micellar structure transition of NaOA and DEAPA mixed solution. Such these microstructures transition could be confirmed by Rheology measurement, DLS and Cryo-TEM.

Partially oxidizing methane into syngas via a two-step chemical looping scheme was a promising option for methane transformation. Ce 2 (SO 4 ) 3 was selected to explore the performance and mechanism of methane chemical looping partial oxidation (CLPOM) to syngas. Thermodynamic and kinetic analysis forecast the Ce 2 (SO 4 ) 3 as a promising candidate for CLPOM. Compared with literature, Ce 2 (SO 4 ) 3 not only had an outstanding syngas selectivity, but also an appropriate CH 4 conversion and molar ratio, and CH 4 conversion could reach 90.5 % of thermodynamic result. As revealed via characterization, Ce 2 (SO 4 ) 3 (1 0 2) surface had the highest peak intensity and the migration of lattice oxygen played an important role in CLPOM. Some of them were tend to agglomeration and these small particles were less than 5 μm. Density functional theory calculations demonstrated that CH 4 series dehydrogenation products tended to adsorb at O site and CH 3 → CH 2 + H was the rate-determining step. The reaction of surface lattice oxygen atoms and migration of the internal lattice oxygen atoms could inhibit carbon deposition, promote CH 4 conversion and syngas generation in experiment. Compared with NiO, Ce 2 (SO 4 ) 3 had a lower energy barrier of lattice oxygen migration, which could increase the reaction rate.

Tungsten, one of the refractory metals, has lots of excellent properties, making tungsten powders become a choice of raw material for many applications. This work reported a simple method (the salt-assisted hydrogen reduction of WO 3 powders) for preparing tungsten powders with desired morphologies and size. By adjusting the amount of additive (Y(NO 3 ) 3 ) and reduction temperature, metallic tungsten particles with different morphologies and size were obtained. It was found that both temperature and additive had apparent effects on the morphology and size of metallic W particles, and the large parallelepiped-shaped powders disappeared and large irregular blocky-shaped powders were degraded under the influence of additive. With the increase of temperature and amount of salt, particles became more dispersed and the size increased at higher temperatures, and the shape of particles was changed from spherical to polyhedral as well. On the contrary, the size of sub-particles became smaller as increasing amount of Y(NO 3 ) 3 at lower temperatures. Based on the results, the reaction and refining mechanisms for preparing tungsten were proposed as well.

Self-powered poly (3-hexylthiophene)/zinc oxide (P3HT/ZnO) heterojunction ultraviolet photodetectors decorated by silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were fabricated by sol-gel and spin-coating techniques. The ultraviolet photoresponse performance of the P3HT/ZnO heterojunction photodetectors influenced by the position of plasmonic Ag NPs was investigated. The responsivity and detectivity of the P3HT/Ag/ZnO photodetector with placed Ag NPs at the interface of ZnO and P3HT layers enhanced to 1.92 and 1.15 times compared to the reference devices. When the Ag NPs embedded into ZnO layer , the responsivity, detectivity and external quantum efficiency were 16.42 mA/W, 5.97 × 10 11 Jones, and 5.36 %, respectively, which were 5.77 times, 4.64 times and 5.77 times to that of the pristine P3HT/ZnO photodetector. The enhancement mechanism of plasmonic metallic nanoparticles to the performance of the photodetectors was discussed in details. This study presents a simple route to high performance self-powered photodetectors.

K 2 TiYb(PO 4 ) 3 microcrystals with langbeinite structure have been prepared for the first time by solid state reaction. Pure K 2 TiYb(PO 4 ) 3 sample with size of 10–20 µm was obtained when the calcination temperature was 1000 °C. The microstructure and performance of the microcrystals are studied by using X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), FTIR and Raman spectra , UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra, and upconversion photoluminescence spectra. The electronic structure analysis by XPS shows that K 2 TiYb(PO 4 ) 3 has the stronger Ti-O ionic band and weaker P-O covalent band than KTiOPO 4 . The absorption peaks at 911 and 975 nm are assigned to the transition of Yb 3+ from 2 F 7/2 (0) to 2 F 5/2 (2′) and 2 F 5/2 (0′) levels, respectively. Under the excitation of 980 nm laser, K 2 TiYb(PO 4 ) 3 produces polychromatic luminescence: strong blue emission at 480 nm and weak red emission at 653 nm, and the corresponding lifetimes are 268.6 and 275.1 μs, respectively. The strong blue emission is assigned to the cooperative luminescence between Yb 3+ -Yb 3+ pairs, and the red emission is related to defects in the samples. All the CIE color coordinates for the langbeinite-type compounds are located in the blue region, which shows their great potential as blue upconversion photoluminescence materials.

Organic anion transporters (OATs in humans, Oats in rodents) play an important role in the distribution and excretion of numerous endogenous metabolic products and exogenous organic anions , including a host of widely prescribed drugs. Their ligand recognition is also important for drug therapy and development. In this study, the n -butanol and dichloromethane soluble fractions of Juniperus oblonga were found to inhibit OAT3 in vitro and three biflavonoids were found to be responsible for this activity. One of these compounds, amentoflavone exhibited stronger inhibition than probenecid, a known strong inhibitor of OAT3. Biological characterization of amentoflavone in vivo also showed inhibition of Oat3. Preliminary observations of structure-activity relationships suggest that the biflavonoids are more potent inhibitors of this transporter than their corresponding monomer, and that methylation of even a single hydroxyl group results in a substantial decrease in activity. This greater potency of the biflavonoids may indicate the need for a more in-depth investigation of the distribution of biflavonoids in plants used as foodstuffs and herbal medicines, due to their potential for causing interactions with OAT3 substrate drugs.

The development of highly active and stable photocatalysts, an effective way to remediate environment pollution and alleviate energy shortages, remains a challenging issue. In this work, a CdIn2S4/In(OH)3nanocomposite was deposited in-situ on NiCr-LDH nanosheets by a simple hydrothermal method, and the obtained CdIn2S4/In(OH)3/NiCr-LDH heterostructure photocatalysts with multiple intimate-contact interfaces exhibited better photocatalytic activity. The photocatalytic H2evolution rate of CdIn2S4/In(OH)3/NiCr-LDH increased to 10.9 and 58.7 times that of the counterparts CdIn2S4and NiCr-LDH, respectively. Moreover, the photocatalytic removal efficiency of Cr(VI) increased from 6% for NiCr-LDH and 75% for CdIn2S4to 97% for CdIn2S4/In(OH)3/NiCr-LDH. The enhanced photocatalytic performance was attributed to the formation of multi-interfaces with strong interfacial interactions and staggered band alignments, which offered multiple pathways for carrier migration, thus promoting the separation efficiency of photo-excited electrons and holes. This study demonstrates a facile method to fabricate inexpensive and efficient heterostructure photocatalysts for solving environmental problems.
