All-inorganic perovskite materials have attracted much attention in the field of photocatalysts due to their unique photoelectric properties.However, the inherent poor stability of perovskite quantum dots significantlyhinders their practical applications. Herein, to settle the instabilities of inorganic perovskite materials, Sn-TiO 2 coated CsPbBr 3 quantum dots named CsPbBr 3 /Sn-TiO 2 , are fabricated via resaturated recrystallization, sol–gel coating and solvothermal crystallization.The XRD results demonstrated that the core–shell structure of CsPbBr 3 /Sn-TiO 2 nanocrystals was successfully synthesized.Moreover, excellent dispersion is verified for CsPbBr 3 /Sn-TiO 2 nanocrystals with a core–shell structure by TEM. The particle size of CsPbBr 3 /Sn-TiO 2 nanocrystals is 15–30 nm, where the core size for CsPbBr 3 quantum dots is 4–8 nm, and the Sn-TiO 2 shell thickness is 2–8 nm.The photocatalytic activity of nanocomposites was studied by the photodegradation of RhB aqueous solution under the irradiation of 100 mWcm −2 air mass 1.5 global AM1.5G sunlight. Compared with traditional photocatalyst P25, the core–shell structured CsPbBr 3 /Sn-TiO 2 nanocrystals exhibited better photocatalytic performance, with a degradation efficiency of 96.6% and a degradation rate constant of 10.68 × 10 -2 min −1 in 30 min of catalytic time, which was five times higher than that of P25.The core–shell structured CsPbBr 3 /Sn-TiO 2 nanocrystals have long-term stability in water system and have potential practical application value in the field of environmental governance.

Stannic oxide (SnO 2 )-based lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have garnered tremendous attention due to their high theoretical capacity and suitable lithium ion insertion potential. However, their widespread applications have been hindered by severe electrode degradation caused by substantial volume expansion of SnO 2 . In this study, we embedded amorphous carbon encapsulated ultrafine SnO 2 nanoparticles on hollow macroporous carbon (AC@SnO 2 /HMC) as a superior anode material for LIBs. The unique Sn–C interface and dual carbon protection layers effectively mitigated SnO 2 nanoparticle agglomeration and volume expansion, reinforcing the cycling stability. Additionally, the capacitive contribution from amorphous carbon significantly improved the reversible capacity and rate capability. As such, the resulting AC@SnO 2 /HMC electrode exhibited high capacity (1828 mAh g −1 after 200 cycles at 0.1 A g −1 ), excellent rate capability (1017.6 mAh g −1 at 1 A g −1 ), and outstanding cycling performance (792.1 mAh g −1 after 880 cycles at 2 A g −1 ), surpassing previously reported SnO 2 -based anodes. Furthermore, the AC@SnO 2 /HMC-based Li-ion full cell demonstrated a remarkable capacity of 566.3 mAh g −1 at 0.2 A g −1 after 200 cycles. This study offers valuable insights into the development of advanced SnO 2 -based anodes for LIBs and beyond, highlighting their potential for future advancements in battery technology.

The key to the development of wearable electronic equipment lies in the design of flexible batteries, in which the electrodes with outstanding mechanical behavior are quite important. Herein, porous nitrogen-doped Sn/C fibers (P-Sn/C-N Fs) film has been successfully synthesized via simple electrospinning and subsequent calcination process in which folic acid and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) play the role of introducing nitrogen and forming pores, respectively. The introduction of nitrogen improves the electronic conductivity of the material, and the presence of porous structure increases the specific surface area. More importantly, when the P-Sn/C-N Fs film is used directly as a free-standing electrode for lithium ion batteries, it exhibits outstanding electrochemical performance. The P-Sn/C-N Fs film exhibits a discharge capacity of 712.1 mAh g −1 at 500 mA g −1 after 500 cycles. Even at the high current density of 5 A g −1 , it displays a high discharge capacity of 429.1 mAh g −1 after 1000 cycles. These findings indicate that the P-Sn/C-N Fs film has the potential to be applied as free-standing anode materials for lithium ion batteries.

Lipids play a pivotal role in biological processes and lipid analysis by mass spectrometry (MS) has significantly advanced lipidomic studies. While the structure specificity of lipid analysis proves to be critical for studying the biological functions of lipids, current mainstream methods for large-scale lipid analysis can only identify the lipid classes and fatty acyl chains, leaving the C=C location and sn -position unidentified. In this study, combining photochemistry and tandem MS we develop a simple but effective workflow to enable large-scale and near-complete lipid structure characterization with a powerful capability of identifying C=C location(s) and sn -position(s) simultaneously. Quantitation of lipid structure isomers at multiple levels of specificity is achieved and different subtypes of human breast cancer cells are successfully discriminated. Remarkably, human lung cancer tissues can only be distinguished from adjacent normal tissues using quantitative results of both lipid C=C location and sn -position isomers.

Nanoscale Fe3O4-Sn@CNFs was prepared by loading Fe3O4and Sn nanoparticles onto CNFs synthesized via electrostatic spinning and subsequent thermal treatment by solvothermal reaction, and were used as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries. The prepared anode delivers an excellent reversible specific capacity of 1120 mAh·g−1at a current density of 100 mA·g−1at the 50th cycle. The recovery rate of the specific capacity (99%) proves the better cycle stability. Fe3O4nanoparticles are uniformly dispersed on the surface of nanofibers with high density, effectively increasing the electrochemical reaction sites, and improving the electrochemical performance of the active material. The rate and cycling performance of the fabricated electrodes were significantly improved because of Sn and Fe3O4loading on CNFs with high electrical conductivity and elasticity.Keywords:Fe3O4;Sn;carbon nanofibers;lithium-ion batteries;anode material

Metals have proved to be cracking catalysts for electrochemical reduction of CO 2 to formate (ERCO 2 F), but they suffer from a high overpotential caused by weak adsorption of CO 2 . As far as we know, N-containing polymers, with N atoms lowering the activation energy through efficient trapping of CO 2 , can make contributes to ERCO 2 F. Here, a composite electrode of metal and N-containing conjugated polymer at the interface was used for CO 2 reduction. It exhibited superior Faradaic efficiency (94% ± 1%) and space time yield (306 ± 14 μmol h −1 cm −2 ) at the electrolytic potential of −1.70 V for electrochemical reduction of CO 2 to formate. Polyaniline film was obtained by potentiostatic reduction of pre-completed polyaniline nanowires from polymerizing aniline on Ni foam. Then the spontaneous oxidation of base polyaniline was used to promote the reduction of tin deposition on its surface.

Sn grain orientation in solder matrix has recently been considered as one of the principal failure contributions in lead-free solder joints. Since β -Sn exhibits high anisotropy, the differences of electromigration behavior of solder joints with various grain orientations are dramatic. With different angle ( θ ) between the c -axis of Sn grain and the direction of electron flow, the solder joints often demonstrate varying degrees of electromigration-induced damage. The present investigation illustrated significant differences in microstructural features on the surface of Cu reinforced composite solder joints, even with similar angle θ . Two Cu particles reinforced Sn 3.5 Ag composite solder joints with the similar angle θ of 35° and 40° were selected to investigate the effects of Sn grain c -axis on electromigration under high current stressing for 528 h. A large number of Cu 6 Sn 5 compounds were observed and occupied nearly the whole surface with clear polarization effect in one sample. In contrast, very few Cu 6 Sn 5 were found on the surface of the solder matrix in the other sample after current stressing, and the Cu 6 Sn 5 which was formed after reflow disappeared with subsequent current stressing. Even though polarization effect was not obvious, and the cathode interfacial dissolution was observed on such sample. Systematic study revealed that the angle θ alone was not a sole factor to determine the electromigration damage. It has to be considered along with the coordinate system containing the orientation of the c -axis of the Sn grain, a more dominative factor for the diffusing species.

In this work, Pt-SnO2 heteroaggregate nanocatalysts were synthesized by in situ transformation of Pt@Sn core–shell nanoparticles and their catalytic performance for hydrogenation of various substituted nitroaromatics was investigated. The Pt@Sn nanoparticles were prepared by a one-step method, and the alumina-supported Pt@Sn nanoparticles were further transformed in situ into Pt-SnO2 heteroaggregate nanostructures by calcination. The structures of Pt@Sn and Pt-SnO2 nanomaterials were characterized, and FT-IR with CO probes, HRTEM, XRD, and XPS characterizations revealed that the as-synthesized Pt@Sn nanoparticles were core@shell-like structures with Sn-rich shells and Pt-rich cores and the obtained Pt-SnO2 heteroaggregate nanostructures consisted of close-contact pure Pt and SnO2 phases. The Pt-SnO2/Al2O3 nanostructures demonstrated a better catalytic performance for hydrogenation of various substituted nitroaromatics relative to individual Pt/Al2O3 nanocatalysts. Theoretical calculations suggested that Pt-SnO2 nanocatalysts can slightly facilitate the adsorption of H2 and o-chloronitrobenzene and strongly weaken the binding of Pt/o-chloroaniline, resulting in more available reactants and easier release of products from the catalyst surfaces. The theoretical calculations indicated that the enhanced catalytic performance may originate from a cooperative interaction between Pt and SnO2.

We demonstrate tin (Sn) nanowires growth enhanced by Selenium (Se) atoms via physical vapor transport (PVT) method. The Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy show that Sn nanowires are synthesized with a large quantity, good quality and high purity of Sn. The growth of Sn nanowires is attributed to Solid–Vapor–Liquid mechanism. The effects of gold nanoparticles catalyst, Si substrate, and Se atoms on Sn nanowires growth are discussed in detail. We find that Se atom plays a key role in the growth of Sn nanowires. The gaseous Sn atoms are absorbed by the eutectic alloy droplets of Se–Au at first. Then Sn atoms precipitate at the liquid–solid phase interface due to a supersaturated solution and form a one-dimensional nanostructure. In all, this PVT method could provide a simple and quick way to synthesize monocrystalline Sn nanowires with an advantage in both quality and quantity. The optical transmittance of Sn nanowires thin film with 2 μm 2 density approaches 85–90% in visible wavelength. Therefore, the Sn nanowires thin film can be applied to transparent electrode along with their metallic property.

With the development and use of the electronic and electrical equipment, solving electromagnetic pollution has become a top priority for human health. In this work, ternary co-doped (Ca 2 ⁺, Cu 2 ⁺, Sn 4 ⁺) ions were incorporated into M-type hexagonal barium ferrite (Ba 1-x Ca x Fe 11.6 Cu 0.2 Sn 0.2 O 27 ), and the effects of varying Ca 2 ⁺ doping levels on the crystal structure, surface morphology, and electromagnetic characteristics were thoroughly investigated. Structural characterizations confirms that Ca 2+ substitutes Ba 2+ sites, decreasing the grain size and lattice values while increasing the lattice strain. At x = 0.15, the Ba 1-x Ca x Fe 11.6 Cu 0.2 Sn 0.2 O 27 ferrite achieves the maximum value of saturation magnetization of 67.7 emu/g, the highest RL min value of -44.2 dB@14.3 GHz and effective absorption bandwidth of 3.04 GHz, showing potential as an effective material for absorption applications.

In view of the important influence of Sn 4+ and ascorbic acid (AA) on environmental pollution and human health, the establishment of an effective method to achieve rapid and highly sensitive detection is urgently needed. Herein, orange fluorescent (FL) carbon dots (CDs) were successfully prepared from 1,2,4,5-benzenetetramine tetrahydrochloride and thiourea via solvothermal approach. CDs can serve as FL sensors for detecting Sn 4+ and AA, the detection limit is 0.13 and 0.41 μM, respectively, through a signal on–off–on mode. Furthermore, the practicability of CDs nanoprobes is validated by the successful identification of Sn 4+ and AA in live cells, real water samples and medicine. The present work comfirms the feasibility of employing CDs as FL probes to effectively and selectively detect Sn 4+ and AA, which presents a potential approach for on-site detection of Sn 4+ and AA in various environment and biological systems with exceptional sensitivity.

Gallium-based liquid metals are considered as promising catalysts for electrochemical CO 2 reduction due to their ability to effectively prevent the adhesion of byproduct carbon, which leads to the deactivation of electrode materials. In order to increase the specific area of liquid alloys, Ga-Sn thin liquid films were electrodeposited from a deep eutectic solvent composed of acetamide and dimethyl sulfone. Electrodeposition of Ga-Sn thin films with varying compositions that follow normal deposition behavior achieved, resulting in Sn rich in overall composition. To obtain Ga-rich thin liquid films, a straight forward and efficient two-step electrodeposition approach was employed. A layer of Ga thin film was firstly electrodeposited on the substrate, followed by electrodepositing a Sn layer. The prepared Ga-Sn thin films were applied for electrochemical reduction of CO 2 in a CO 2 -saturated 0.1 M KHCO 3 solution. Ga-Sn alloy with 91.6 at% Ga was in the liquid state at 25℃ and showed an excellent performance in reduction CO 2 to formate. The Faradaic efficiency reached 80 % and the partial current density was 46 mA cm −2 .
