It is still challenging to achieve both good stability and high PLQYs for perovskite NCs because of their ionic nature and structural defects. In this work, tungstosilicic acid (TSA) is used for the surface passivation of cesium lead halide perovskite NCs. Near-unity PLQY is achieved for CsPbBr3 NCs after surface passivation with a suitable amount of TSA. XRD in conjunction with XPS analysis shows that TSA binds hydrophobic chains of OAm onto the surface of CsPbBr3 NCs. XPS results also demonstrate that TSA passivation can change the charge distribution of the cations on the surface layers, which can enhance the interaction with surface traps. PL decay analysis reveals that trap states arising from the surface defects are significantly decreased after TSA passivation. TSA-passivated CsPbBr3 NCs demonstrate long-term ambient stability and good resistances to polar solvents and maintain about 80% of their initial PL intensity after storage under ambient conditions for 50 days. It is further found that TSA passivation is able to improve the PLQYs of a broad spectrum of CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) NCs without hindering the tunability of the band gaps and PL colors of CsPbX3 NCs via anion exchange.

As a poisonous and harmful gas, NO 2 , is not only harmful to the environment, but also detrimental to human health. In this work, ionic liquids (1-hexadecyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [C 16 Mim] Cl) were selected as dopants to prepare flower-like Cl uniform doped In 2 O 3 nanomaterials. The material exhibits excellent sensing performance to NO 2 under UV light because of Cl uniform doped. Compared with the experiment in dark conditions, the response value of the sensor to 5 ppm NO 2 under UV light is approximately two times higher (S = 425.9) and presents a faster recovery rate (69 s). Chlorine doping shifts the valence band of the material upwards, facilitating the photogenerated electron leap under UV illumination. Moreover, the in-situ DRIFT under UV light were employed to verify the interaction between the materials and NO 2 gas in N 2 , air and O 2 atmospheres respectively. It was found that the presence of oxygen in the environment affects the adsorption of NO 2 on the surface of the Cl doped In 2 O 3 material. This work is of great significance to the sensing mechanism investigation of photo-activated NO 2 gas sensors.

In the present work, mango pit was used to study the feasibility of converting ionic liquid-pretreated biomass into biofuel and activated biochar by using pyrolysis temperature as a key variable. Ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl) was used as a green solvent to dissolve mango pit. The impact of [Bmim]Cl on the pyrolysis properties at peak DTG temperature was investigated. Pretreatment with [Bmim]Cl was observed to slightly enhance biochar yield, while somewhat decreasing bio-oil and biogas yields. The yield of hydrogen and methane, as well as the generation of phenolic and alcoholic bio-oils, are increased by [Bmim]Cl pretreatment. [Bmim]Cl pretreatment was determined to promote the formation of pore structure, a greater number of pores were opened, and the BET surface areas increased 24 times. The pyrolysis kinetics were calculated using the DAEM model. The results showed that [Bmim]Cl pretreatment resulted in lower activation energy and a high amount of fraction mass conversion at low temperatures. As a result, the results showed that pyrolysis of [Bmim]Cl-pretreated biomass did not require high temperatures, and that it is possible to convert ionic liquid pretreatment biomass into high-quality biofuel and active biochar by controlling the pyrolysis temperature.

Graphitized carbonitride (g-C3N4) is widely used in CO2 reduction, hydrogen production, and degradation of toxic chemical dyes and antibiotics. It is a kind of photocatalytic material with excellent performance, and it has the advantages of being safe and nontoxic, having a suitable band gap (2.7 eV), and having a simple preparation and high stability, but because of its fast optical recombination speed and low visible light overutilization, the multifunctional application of g-C3N4 is seriously hindered. Compared with pure g-C3N4, MWCNTs/g-C3N4 have a red-shift in the visible range and a strong absorption in the visible region. Melamine and carboxylated multiwalled carbon nanotubes were used as raw materials to successfully prepare CMWCNT modified g-C3N4 doped with P, Cl by a high temperature calcination method. The effect of the addition amount of P, Cl on the photocatalytic performance of modified g-C3N4 was studied. The experimental results show that the multiwalled carbon nanotubes can accelerate the electron migration, and the doping of P, Cl elements can change the energy band structure of g-C3N4 and reduce the band gap. Through fluorescence analysis and photocurrent analysis, it is known that the incorporation of P, Cl reduces the recombination efficiency of photogenerated electron–hole pairs. In order to explore the application in the degradation of chemical dyes, the photocatalytic degradation efficiency of RhB under visible light was studied. The photocatalytic performance of the samples was evaluated by photodecomposition of aquatic hydrogen. The results showed that when the amount of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate was 10 wt %, the photocatalytic degradation efficiency was the highest, which was 21.13 times higher than that of g-C3N4.

High permselectivity and antifouling/self-cleaning nanofiltration (NF) membranes are ideal materials for water treatment, and this vision is expected to be reached through the design of multifunctional self-cleaning interfaces. In this study, we employed metal - polyphenol network (MPN) to mediate in situ mineralization of porous substrates, enabling simultaneous modulation of interfacial polymerization (IP) and catalytic self-cleaning. The findings demonstrate that the mineralized layers employ an interlayer modulation strategy to produce a polyamide (PA) layer that is more hydrophilic, thinner, and structurally denser. As a result, the resulting PA-Fe 3 O 4 -PSF membrane exhibited a 2.5-fold increase in permeance (19.2 L m −2 h −1 bar −1 ) and a 7.3-fold enhancement in Cl − /SO 4 2− selectivity (66.4), compared to the control membrane (PA-PSF). Additionally, its highly polarized membrane surface significantly improved its antifouling performance. Compared to membranes with mineralized layers on the surface (Fe 3 O 4 -PA-PSF), PA-Fe 3 O 4 -PSF constructs a confined space that facilitates more efficient regeneration through in situ catalytic self-cleaning and ensures greater stability during multiple fouling-regeneration cycle operations. This study paves the way for fabricating multifunctional NF membranes with sustainable applications in material concentration, wastewater treatment, and environmental remediation.

In this case, various characterization technologies have been employed to probe dissociation mechanism of cellulose in N , N -dimethylacetamide/lithium chloride (DMAc/LiCl) system. These results indicate that coordination of DMAc ligands to the Li + –Cl − ion pair results in the formation of a series of Li x (DMAc) y Cl z (x = 1, 2; y = 1, 2, 3, 4; z = 1, 2) complexes. Analysis of interaction between DMAc ligand and Li center indicate that Li bond plays a major role for the formation of these Li x (DMAc) y Cl z complexes. And the saturation and directionality of Li bond in these Li x (DMAc) y Cl z complexes are found to be a tetrahedral structure. The hydrogen bonds between two cellulose chains could be broken at the nonreduced end of cellulose molecule via combined effects of basicity of Cl − ion and steric hindrance of [Li (DMAc) 4 ] + unit. The unique feature of Li bond in Li x (DMAc) y Cl z complexes is a key factor in determination of the dissociation mechanism.

A new method is proposed for determination of carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA) based on quantum dot (QD)-modified aptamer probe by capillary electrophoresis-chemiluminescence (CE-CL) detection system. An oligonucleotide sequence A contains two parts, one is CEA aptamer and the other is bridging segment. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugates with sequence A (HRP-DNA A ) and then mixes with QD labeling complementary bridging segment (QD-DNA B ), forming HRP-DNA A-B -QD probe. When CEA exists, the specific combination of the aptamer in sequence A and CEA can form CEA/HRP-DNA A-B -QD complex. After separation of CEA/HRP-DNA A-B -QD complex and HRP-DNA A-B -QD probe by capillary electrophoresis (CE), the chemiluminescence (CL) catalyzed by CEA/HRP-DNA A-B -QD complex can be detected without any interference, and the content of CEA can be estimated by the CL intensity. It has been proved that the separation efficiency of HRP-DNA A-B -QD and CEA/HRP-DNA A-B -QD complex is improved greatly after QD modification, then the interference issue resulted from free HRP-DNA A-B -QD probe is solved well; and the specific combination of HRP-DNA A-B -QD and CEA leads to a closer distance of HRP and QD, then chemiluminescent resonance energy transfer (CRET) occurs, which confirms the validity of the strategy. Results show that the CL intensity has a linear relationship with the concentration of CEA in the range from 0.0654 to 6.54 ng/mL, and the limit of detection is approximately 8 pg/mL ( S / N = 3). This proposed method with high specificity has been applied for the accurate analysis of content of CEA in patient's serum.

All inorganic perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) have been studied extensively because of their excellent photoelectric properties. However, its poor stability and lead toxicity limit its practical application. At the same time, the complex synthesis conditions of the hot injection method also limited the preparation of large quantities. Here, we have successfully synthesized Mn-doped CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 PQDs with excellent thermal stability at room temperature by a simple supersaturation crystallization method. The synthesized Mn-doped CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 PQDs has good homogeneity and crystallinity. Meanwhile, Mn-doped CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 PQDs maintains the same crystal structure as CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 PQDs. Importantly, it was found that the activation energy of CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 PQDs after manganese doping increased from 65.1 meV to 222.8 meV through the high and low temperature PL test of 80 K–500 K. The crystal structure of CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 PQDs is more stable due to the introduction of manganese ion, and the thermal stability is significantly improved. In this study, manganese doped CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 PQDs with good crystallinity and thermal stability was rapidly synthesized by a simple supersaturation crystallization method at room temperature, which opened up a new way to improve the stability of PQDs and explore other non-toxic metal elements to replace Pb 2+ .

Chlorine-based electrochemical energy storage is a promising candidate for sustainable battery technology. The anionic redox reaction of Cl 0/−1 is of interest due to its superior redox potential (1.36 V vs . standard hydrogen electrode [SHE]), capacity (756 mAh g −1 ), high power, and low cost. Although Cl chemistry has been used in aqueous batteries for a long time, its deployment in organic lithium batteries has been significantly impeded due to the insolubility of Cl − ions (<0.1 M). Scarce oxidizable Cl − blocks redox reactions and the inevitable lithium chloride (LiCl) film passivates electrodes on discharge. We report a eutectic effect to improve the Cl − solubility in organic electrolytes (2 M or higher) by mixing a series of N-/P-centered chloride salts with lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide at specific ratios. Based on an optimized Cl − concentration, a Li-Cl 2 cell using I as a chemical fixation can achieve a three-electron transfer with a specific capacity of 702 mAh g −1 and an energy density of 1,116 Wh kg −1 .

CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) materials were synthesized by a hot injection method. To enhance the stability of the perovskite , CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 - multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) composites were synthesized by the insitu growth method. First, the successful composite of CNTs and perovskite has been proved by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). After CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 NCs have grew on CNTs, the exciton lifetime decays from 8.2 ns to 4.5 ns, suggesting the presence of an additional electron transfer pathway between CNTs and CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 NCs. The photoluminescence (PL) properties of perovskite NCs and CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 -CNTs were evaluated using temperature-dependent PL spectroscopy . The exciton binding energy of the CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 -CNTs composites (59.28 meV) is higher than that of the CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 NCs (51.79 meV), indicating a more stable exciton state within the CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 -CNTs structure. The PL stability experimental results reveal a notable enhancement in the stability of CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 -CNTs composites compared to CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 NCs. In addition, electrochemical tests of CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 -CNTs show a low resistance to charge transfer ( R ct ) alongside a favorable photocurrent response. This work has proved that the novel CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 -CNTs composites not only exhibit outstanding moisture and UV resistance but also demonstrate remarkable potential optoelectronic device applications.

A large optical anisotropy is the most important parameter of birefringent crystals. Integrating π-conjugated groups with large polarizable anisotropy into target compounds is a common strategy for constructing brilliant birefringent crystals. However, the key problem is to enhance the density of the birefringence-active units and further arrange them parallelly. In this study, three novel birefringent crystals, C 9 H 7 NBrX (X = Cl, Br, NO 3 ), are successfully synthesized by introducing a new birefringence-active [C 9 H 7 NBr] + unit. Interestingly, these compounds feature similar layered structures but exhibit different optical anisotropies at 550 nm (0.277 for C 9 H 7 NBrCl, 0.328 for C 9 H 7 NBrBr, and 0.401 for C 9 H 7 NBrNO 3 ) owing to the different anions in them. Particularly, the small trigonal planar NO 3 anions perfectly fill the interstices of the π-conjugated [C 9 H 7 NBr] + groups with large optical anisotropy, with the resulting compound C 9 H 7 NBrNO 3 showing superior optical properties compared to the others. The above findings provide strategies for designing new optical materials with large birefringence by matching birefringence-active groups of different sizes. Additionally, a new theory for predicting and comparing the polarizability anisotropy of compounds is proposed, which would guide in exploring large birefringent crystals.

microscopic morphology were analyzed by using several instruments, and the defects created by Cl doping were identified. Quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance detection were proposed to clarify the mechanism underlying the production of active free radicals by Cldopedgraphene.
The degradation results indicated that efficiency increased with the percentage of Cl atoms doped into the graphene. The best degradation efficiency of acetaminophen could reach 98% when Cl-GN-12 was used. In the process of electrocatalytic oxidation, O•−
