We report the colloidal synthesis of monodisperse phase pure chalcostibite CuSbS 2 nanocrystals in high boiling point solvent. The use of dodecanethiol as ligands had an advantage over oleylamine on avoiding the hydrolysis of Sb precursor. The effect of reaction temperature and Cu/Sb feed molar ratio on the synthesis of copper antimony sulfide nanocrystals in dodecanethiol system was investigated. As a result of the reactivity difference between Cu and Sb precursors, the formation of CuSbS 2 nanocrystals involves the preferential nucleation of Cu-rich nanocrystals and their subsequent reaction with remaining Sb precursors. The band gap of the resulting CuSbS 2 nanocrystals was measured to be ~1.59 eV.

Waste activated sludge (WAS), containing biological pathogens, chemical elements and high moisture (>99%), was generated continually from municipal sewage treatment plants. Sludge dewatering could diminish the volume of WAS and control the diffusion of environmental pollution efficiently. In this study, tannic acid (TA), as a plant-derived phenolic compound, was investigated for improving WAS dewaterability at different temperatures. Apparently, the WAS dewaterability was enhanced by TA conditioning in the range of 25–55 °C, but further increase in temperature did not significantly affect the dewatering. With the TA addition of 0.15 mmol/gTS (total solid) at 55 °C, the WAS dewaterability was improved by 84.5% decrease in capillary suction time (CST), 96.5% decrease in specific resistance of filtration (SRF), and 19.9% decrease in water content (Wc) of dewatered sludge cake. TA facilitated removing supernatant viscosity and protein of sludge EPS (extracellular polymeric substances), specifically with 88.9% and 75.0% protein removal of slime EPS (S-EPS) and loosely bound EPS (LB-EPS). Thermodynamics modeling revealed that the improved dewaterability was dominantly attributed to the hydrophobic bonding between TA and EPS proteins, which was strengthened with the increase in temperature. However, when the conditioning temperature exceeded 55 °C, thermal effect took place and accelerated the release of biopolymers into EPS and hence, counteracted the beneficial effect of TA conditioning to further improve WAS dewatering. The results offered not only the dewatering effectiveness and mechanism of TA conditioning, but also a potential approach of applying plant waste to treat WAS for the high dewaterability.

Ferromagnetic order in 2D2D materials has triggered widespread interest because of their applications in spintronic devices. Monolayer 1T-VSe 2 , as a recently emerged candidate of 2D2D ferromagnetic material, exhibits complicated behaviors that contradict the theoretical predictions. In this work, a systematic investigation is presented on the evolution of the transport properties in VSe 2 thin flakes controlled by gate voltage. Notably, for the first time, a paramagnetic-to-ferromagnetic transition is realized in a VSe 2 thin flake using a field-effect transistor setup with solid ion conductor of polycrystalline Li 1+ x + y Al x (Ti 2− y Ge y )P 3− z Si z O 12 serving as the gate dielectric. The Curie temperature determined from the electrical transport measurements is ≈40 K. The electric-field-controlled ferromagnetism in exfoliated VSe 2 flakes provides an excellent platform for developing advanced spintronics as well as investigating unusual emergent physics in 2D systems.

A novel cross-linkable polyaspartamide derivative-containing cinnamoyl pendant groups, P(HPA-Az)-CA, was designed and synthesized in this study. Chemical structures of the obtained polymers were confirmed by FTIR, UV, and 1 H NMR techniques. The transmittance measurement results showed that the prepared polymer P(HPA-Az)-CA displayed temperature and pH dual stimuli-responsive behaviors. The cloud point of P(HPA-Az)-CA could be tuned just by adjusting the introduced percentage of hydrophobic moieties or the pH of polymer aqueous solution. The effect of pH on the cloud point of P(HPA-Az)-CA was investigated by zeta potential, and the results showed that it may be related to the weakened electrostatic repulsion caused by decreased zeta potential with pH decreasing. Diamines (ethylenediamine or cystamine) were adopted to prepare cross-linked micelles using the mixture of P(HPA-Az)-CA aqueous solution and diamines just by one-step heating method. The cross-linked micelles were stable, even when the environmental temperature was below the cloud point of P(HPA-Az)-CA. The cross-linking mechanism between the diamines and α,β-unsaturated carbonyl moieties of P(HPA-Az)-CA was confirmed by 1 H NMR. In addition, the micelles cross-linked with cystamine could be disrupted in the presence of 10 mM glutathione. According to the results, the obtained polyaspartamide derivative P(HPA-Az)-CA may be a potential for facilitating drug loading.

Fe(Te,Se) is a simple, iron-based compound that is conducive to the study of superconductivity mechanisms and has potential for large-scale applications. At present, Fe(Te,Se) thin films are primarily prepared using the pulsed laser deposition method. Herein, FeTe 0.6 Se 0.4 films were grown by magnetron sputtering on CaF 2 substrates. The effect of sputtering pressure on the superconductivity of the film was investigated. Excessive pressure caused a higher iron content, which affected the superconductivity and prevented it from completely reaching a zero-resistance state. Δ T c was smaller for the film grown under 0.2 Pa, and its upper critical field reached 144.35 T, which indicates its greater application potential. Our results illustrated that sputtering pressure was a critical process parameter, which provided an important reference for future research to fabricate commercial iron-based superconducting tapes by magnetron sputtering.

Orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films have been synthesized using the sol-gel spin coating . Influences of post-annealing temperatures on crystal structure, morphology, negative thermal expansion (NTE) and optical performances of the thin films were studied using XRD , SEM, XPS, high-temperature XRD and UV–Vis–NIR spectrophotometer. XRD and SEM results show that as-prepared thin film is in an amorphous state with a smooth and dense surface. Orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films were obtained after post-annealing in 550–750 °C. The higher the annealing temperature in 550–750 °C, the better the crystallinity of orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films . In addition, the grain size of the In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin film also grows as the annealing temperature increases. The resulting orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films exhibit anisotropic NTE. Its volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) is −3.44 × 10 −6 °C −1 , while the CTEs in a -, b - and c -axis directions are −4.70 × 10 −6 °C −1 , 5.37 × 10 −6 °C −1 , and -4.10 × 10 −6 °C −1 in 25–700 °C, respectively. In addition, the transmittance of orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films post-annealed at 750 °C is around 87.75 %–95.03 %.

We have demonstrated a low threshold and tunable flexible random laser (RL) in dye-doped poly ethylene glycol diacrylate (PEG-DA) hydrogel, which was prepared by crosslinking polymerization using PEG-DA monomer and photoinitiator. The random lasering is attributed to the light scattering from the porous structure of hydrogels, and the wavelength of random lasing can be tuned by ~3.2 nm in the temperature range from 30 °C to 70 °C. Under the continuous increasing and decreasing temperature cycle, the random lasing tunable phenomenon can still be observed, which proves that this flexible material can be used as a new temperature sensor . In addition, we also explored the application of flexible laser in phototherapy. Considering the good elasticity and transparency of hydrogels, this thermo-responsive property will be of great significance to the biomedical applications of flexible material.

The Sc 3+ ions doped NaYF 4 : Yb 3+ , Er 3+ upconversion (UC) nanoparticles are synthesized by thermal decomposition method. We successfully obtained the upconversion luminescence (UCL) nanoparticles from green emission to red emission through doping Sc 3+ ions with different concentrations. Based on the XRD, the phase change process of Sc 3+ ions doped NaYF 4 nanocrystalline phase were demonstrated. More importantly, through the analysis of UC spectrum data, the change in the phase of the NaY/ScF 4 : Yb 3+ , Er 3+ nanocrystalline corresponds to the change in its luminous properties. It determines that the change of crystal field will lead to the change of luminescence, and then modulate the luminescence. NaScF 4 : Yb 3+ , Er 3+ UC nanoparticles exhibit strong red light emission. In addition, the temperature-sensitive properties of the optimal doping concentration of Sc 3+ ion were tested. The sensitivity of NaYF 4 : Yb 3+ , Er 3+ nanoparticles doped with Sc 3+ ion reached the maximum value of 0.024 K − 1 at 498 K. The nanocrystalline has great application value in the fields of optical temperature measurement, biomedicine, bioprobes and colorful display.

SrTiO 3 is a promising thermoelectric material for applications in harsh environments, owing to its excellent thermoelectric (TE) properties and high-temperature stability. The effect of annealing in carbon powders on the TE properties of SrTiO 3−δ in the [111] direction was experimentally investigated and analysed using first-principles calculation. The electrical conductivity of the SrTiO 3−δ single crystals in the [111] direction increases with an increase in annealing temperature in the range of 1573–1673 K, which is opposite to that in the [510] direction as shown in a previous experiment. This is attributed to the different variation trend of carrier concentration. First-principle calculation results show that the carrier concentration in the [111] direction increases with increasing oxygen vacancy concentration, but it is the opposite in the [510] direction. Strong anisotropy of carrier concentration should be caused by the difference in atomic arrangement, making difference in the amount of free electrons that maybe constrained at high oxygen vacancy in different directions. Although the SrTiO 3−δ single crystal annealed at 1573 K shows a lower electrical conductivity, it obtains higher power factor with the maximum value of 2.24 mW m −1 K −2 at 323 K, which is predominantly due to its higher effective mass. It also yields the highest ZT value of 0.18 at 873 K owing to the lower thermal conductivity . The results of this study are imperative for the design and development of perovskite TE materials.

A series of well-defined thermoresponsive graft polymers with different lengths and graft densities, poly(glycidyl methacrylate)- graft -poly( N -isopropylacrylate) (PGMA- g -PNIPAM), were successfully prepared by combination of controlled/living free radical polymerization and click chemistry. Effects of grafting length and density on the thermoresponsive behavior, aggregating mean diameter, and self-assembly morphology are systematically investigated. The thermosensitive characteristics of graft polymers in aqueous solution prove that the length and graft density had positive co-relationship with the lower critical solution temperature value and mean diameter of micelles as well as the size distribution, while the effect of graft length of polymers is more significant than that of density. Transmission electron microscopy analysis shows that the conformations of PGMA 45 - g -PNIPAM 20 and PGMA 45 - g -PNIPAM 46 with longer length and bigger grafting density in aqueous solutions are spherical nanoparticles with the increasing trend of the diameters, while that of PGMA 45 - g -PNIPAM (73, 50%) shows a spherical-like morphology, which indicates that the graft length and density have a significant effect on the mean diameter of micelle but not on the self-assembly morphology. These results reveal that to obtain desired thermoresponsive behavior and self-assembly morphology of functional polymers, it is essential to design and fabricate the structure of graft polymers with proper length and graft density. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A core-shell nanocomposite based on carbon dots (CD)/Rhodamine B (RhB) is realized by a facile method. The composite particles show spherical shape with narrow size distribution, non-agglomeration and smooth surface. The as-obtained nanocomposite shows the characteristic dual-emission of thermal-stable CD blue emission and thermal-sensitive RhB red emission at a single excitation wavelength. The fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) is found to have a good linear relationship ( R 2 > 0.993) with temperature, while the corresponding maximum absolute and relative sensitivity is 2.01% K −1 and 1.39% K −1 in range of 283–373 K. The research provides a simple approach to create novel dual-emitting nanocomposites for temperature sensing application in micron-scale and biological field.

Isocyanate modified asphalt samples were got by adding quantitative isocyanate into the base asphalt. Isocyanate and nano particles composite modified asphalt samples were produced by adding quantitative isocyanate and three different kinds of inorganic nanoparticles (Silicon dioxide, Titanium dioxide, Zinc oxide) into the base asphalt respectively. Isocyanate modified asphalt, isocyanate and nanoparticles composite modified asphalt were characterized by taking physical tests, SEM, fluorescence microscopy, TG and FTIR tests, which demonstrated that the high and low temperature performance of isocyanate and nano particles composite modified asphalt had been improved effectively. From the microscopic view, the modification of the base asphalt was very significant. Results also indicated that the temperature sensitivity of composite modified asphalt had been decreased. Meanwhile, the thermal stability had been improved when compared with the base asphalt and isocyanate modified asphalt.
