A study of the self-healing phenomenon of Cu2ZnSn(S, Se)4 (CZTSSe) solar cells has shown more than 10% enhancement in cell performance after storage at room temperature for a week, with a significant improvement in the open-circuit photovoltage (Voc) and fill factor (FF). In addition, up to 10.45% power conversion efficiency (PCE) has been achieved. No obvious change in crystallinity, crystal phase, optical absorption or elemental distribution in the CZTSSe films was detected on examining the x-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern, Raman spectrum, ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), and TOF-SIMS. Further investigations on the charge carrier concentration, charge radiative recombination, and band structure suggest that the enhancement in PCE stems mainly from a reduction in deep defects of the CZTSSe semiconductor film.

Cu-Ag particles with different molar ratios have been prepared in the hyperbranched polyester matrix using ascorbic acid as a reducing agent. The third generation hyperbranched polyester has been synthesized by step by step polymerization using the first generation hyperbranched polyester as core molecular and 2, 2-dimethylol propionic acid as branched monomer. The synthesized hyperbranched polyester and Cu-Ag alloy were characterized by FT-IR, 1 H-NMR, UV-vis spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM, Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX), Laser particle size measurement, TEM, etc. The XRD and EDX studies confirm the formation of Cu-Ag alloy. Laser particle size measurement, SEM and TEM studies show that the particles of the Cu-Ag alloy are well-dispersed with average size of 120 nm. The thermal properties of the Cu-Ag alloy have been studied by thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA). The results show that the measurement values are close to the theoretical ones.

ABSTRACT In an attempt to develop low-cost, non-noble-metal bifunctional electrocatalysts for water elec-trolysis in alkaline media, cobalt-doped molybdenum carbide@N-doped carbon nanosheets/nanotubes were fabricated by using C 3 N 4 as the carbon source on a 3D porous nickel foam substrate. Benefiting from the optimized electronic structure and enhanced mass and charge transport, as well as the 3D conducting pathway, Mo x Co y @N-CNS /CNT shows superior performance towards both the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in an alkaline medium. The optimal electrocatalyst is Mo 2 Co 1 @N-CNS /CNT , which reveals a current density of 10 mA cm -2 at the low overpotentials of 99 mV and 300 mV for the HER and OER, respectively, and a relatively low cell voltage (1.63 V) for the overall water electrolysis. The method of optimizing the composition and nanostructure of a material provides a new avenue for the development and utilization of high-performance electrocatalysts.

In this work, the glassy carbon electrode modified by alizarin (AR) hybridized with graphene (CRG) and chitosan (CS) was prepared. The AR/CRG-CS electrode exhibited a pair of well-defined reversible redox peaks in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (PBS, pH 7.4) with the oxidation peak at −0.573 V and the reduction peak at −0.652 V. It exhibited a two-proton and two-electron redox process and a fast heterogeneous electron transfer rate with the rate constant ( K s ) of 1.69 s −1 using the cyclic voltammetry. Based on the characteristics of alizarin with the decreased current and negative potential shift after binding with human telomere DNA, a sensitive, simple, reliable and stable electrochemical method for the detection of human telomere DNA using the AR/CRG-CS electrode was developed. The electrochemical response showed a linear relationship with DNA concentration in the range of 8.0 × 10 −8 −1.4 × 10 −5 M ( R = 0.9995) with the linear regression equation as Δ I pc (μA) = 8.4860 + 0.5366 C (μmol) and the detection limit ( S/N ) as 2.0 × 10 −8 M.

Polyquaternium-6 (PQ6) as the water-soluble polymer was used for complexing the anion forms of tungsten (VI) before ultrafiltration. Tungsten (VI)-PQ6 complex was retained by polysulfone hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane in the complexation-ultrafiltration process. Effects of various operating parameters such as polymer metal ratio(PMR), pH and chloride ion concentration on permeate flux ( J ) and tungsten rejection coefficient ( R ) were investigated. The integration of four experiments including concentration, decomplexation, diafiltration and reuse of regenerated polymer was carried out. In the process of concentration, J declines slowly and R is about 1 at PMR of 3 and pH of 7. Tungsten concentration in the retentate increases linearly with volume concentration factor. Tungsten is concentrated efficiently with the membrane. The concentrated retentate was used further for the decomplexation. It takes about 6 min to reach the decomplexation equilibrium at chloride ion concentration of 50 mgL −1 . The decomplexation percentage of tungsten (VI)-PQ6 complex reaches 56.1%. In the diafiltration process, tungsten (VI) can be extracted effectively by using 50 mgL −1 chloride ion solution, and the purification of the regenerated PQ6 is acceptably satisfactory. The regenerated PQ6 was used to bind tungsten (VI) at various pH values. The binding capacity of the regenerated PQ6 is close to that of fresh PQ6, and the recovery percentage of binding capacity is higher than 90%.

Various ZSM-5 zeolites modified with alkali metals (Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs) were prepared using ion exchange. The catalysts were used to enhance the catalytic dehydration of lactic acid (LA) to acrylic acid (AA). The effects of cationic species on the structures and surface acid-base distributions of the ZSM-5 zeolites were investigated. The important factors that affect the catalytic performance were also identified. The modified ZSM-5 catalysts were characterized using X-ray diffraction, temperature-programmed desorptions of NH 3 and CO 2 , pyridine adsorption spectroscopy, and N 2 adsorption to determine the crystal phase structures, surface acidities and basicities, nature of acid sites, specific surface areas, and pore volumes. The results show that the acid-base sites that are adjusted by alkali-metal species, particularly weak acid-base sites, are mainly responsible for the formation of AA. The KZSM-5 catalyst, in particular, significantly improved LA conversion and AA selectivity because of the synergistic effect of weak acid-base sites. The reaction was conducted at different reaction temperatures and liquid hourly space velocities (LHSVs) to understand the catalyst selectivity for AA and trends in byproduct formation. Approximately 98% LA conversion and 77% AA selectivity were achieved using the KZSM-5 catalyst under the optimum conditions (40 wt% LA aqueous solution, 365 °C, and LHSV 2 h −1 ).

The method of micro-pressurized liquid extraction (μ-PLE) coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS) for analysis of 4 dicarboxylic acids (DCAs, including malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, and adipic acid) in fine atmospheric particles was developed. PM 2.5 filter sample was extracted by μ-PLE at a pressure of 8 MPa and temperature of 80 °C using methanol as extraction solution. After two static 5-min extractions and a rinsing step with 100 μL methanol, about 500 μL of extraction solution was obtained. The extraction solution was then blown to dry with high purity nitrogen and submitted to a silylation reaction at 60 °C for 30 min. After internal standard (IS) was added, the derivatization solution was directly injected for GC-MS analysis. For quantification of 4 normally DCAs in fine atmospheric particles, the calibration curve was obtained with a good linear relationship in the range of 0.2–20 ng μL −1 . The limits of quantification (LOQs, S/N = 10) were in the range of 0.15–0.47 ng m −3 . The relative recoveries were between 92% and 122% with the RSDs between 2.6% and 11.8% for spiked filter samples. The method developed here was used to determine malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, and adipic acid in real PM 2.5 samples collected from Xinghai Bay of Dalian city, and the results were determined to be 64.6, 50.0, 41.8 and 20.2 ng m −3 , respectively.

In this study, polyethylene glycol acrylate (PEGA) was introduced onto the surface of polysulphone (PSF) membrane to prepare PSF–PEGA membranes through low-temperature plasma technology for haemocompatibility improvement of artificial lungs. The effects of plasma power, PEGA solution concentration and dipcoating temperature on surface modification were systematically investigated. Results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and PEGA grafting degree confirmed that PEGA was successfully grafted onto the PSF membranes. Contact angle values showed that the hydrophilicity of the PSF–PEGA membrane surface increased by 21.5%. The results of the protein adsorption, platelet adhesion and coagulation tests further showed the excellent haemocompatibility of the modified membrane. Gas exchange tests also revealed that at a porcine blood flow rate of 5 l min−1, O2 and CO2 exchange rates through the PSF–PEGA membrane were 198.6 and 170.9 ml min−1, respectively; approximately this is the gas exchange capacity of commercial respiratory assistance devices.

A newly developed ionic electro-active actuator composed of an ionic electrolyte layer sandwiched between two graphene film layers was investigated. Scanning electronic microscopy observation and x-ray diffraction analysis showed that the graphene sheets in the film stacked in a nearly face-to-face fashion but did not restack back to graphite, and the resulting graphene film with low sheet resistance (10 Ω sq−1) adheres well to the electrolyte membrane. Contact angle measurement showed the surface energy (37.98 mJ m−2) of the ionic electrolyte polymer is 2.67 times higher than that (14.2 mJ m−2) of the Nafion membrane, contributing to the good adhesion between the graphene film electrode and the electrolyte membrane. An electric double-layer is formed at the interface between the graphene film electrode and the ionic electrolyte membrane under the input potential, resulting in a higher capacitance of 27.6 mF cm−2. We report that this ionic actuator exhibits adequate bending strain, ranging from 0.032 to 0.1% (305 to 945 μm) as functions of voltage.

A large-scale Si nanowire array (SiNWA) is fabricated with gold (Au) nanoparticles by simple metal-assisted chemical etching and metal reduction processes. The three-dimensional nanostructured Au/SiNWA is evaluated as an active substrate for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The results show that the detection limit for rhodamine 6G is as low as 10−7 M, and the Raman enhancement factor is as large as 105 with a relative standard deviation of less than 25%. After the calibration of the Raman peak intensities of rhodamine 6G and thiram, organic molecules could be quantitatively detected. These results indicate that Au/SiNWA is a promising SERS-active substrate for the detection of biomolecules present in low concentrations. Our findings are an important advance in SERS substrates to allow fast and quantitative detection of trace organic contaminants.

A carbon-based sulfonated catalyst was prepared by direct sulfonation and carbonization (in moderate conditions: 200 °C, 12 h) of red liquor solids, a by-product of paper-making process. The prepared sulfonated catalyst (SC) had aromatic structure, composed of carbon enriched inner core, and oxygen-containing (SO 3 H, COOH, OH) groups enriched surface. The SO 3 H, COOH, OH groups amounted to 0.74 mmol·g −1 , 0.78 mmol·g −1 , 2.18 mmol·g −1 , respectively. The fresh SC showed much higher catalytic activity than that of the traditional solid acid catalysts (strong-acid 732 cation exchange resin, hydrogen type zeolite socony mobile-five (HZSM-5), sulfated zirconia) in esterification of oleic acid. SC was deactivated during the reactions, through the mechanisms of leaching of sulfonated species and formation of sulfonate esters. Two regeneration methods were developed, and the catalytic activity can be mostly regenerated by regeneration Method 1 and be fully regenerated by regeneration Method 2, respectively.

Wheat leaf rust is a destructive foliar disease of common wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) worldwide. The most effective, economical s to control the disease is growing resistant cultivars with adult plant resistance (APR). The Chinese wheat lines W014204 and Fuyu 3 showed high leaf rust resistance in the field. To identify leaf rust APR genes in the two lines, two mapping populations with 215 and 163 F 2:3 lines from the crosses W014204/Zhengzhou 5389 and Fuyu 3/Zhengzhou 5389, respectively, were phenotyped for leaf rust severities during the 2010–2011, 2011–2012 and 2012–2013 cropping seasons in the field at Baoding, Hebei Province, China. A total of 1 215 SSR markers were used to identify the quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for leaf rust APR in the two populations. In the W014204/Zhengzhou 5389 population, three QTLs were detected and designated as QLr.hbu-1BL.1, QLr.hbu-2BS.1 and QLr.hbu-7DS, and explained 2.9–8.4, 11.5–38.3 and 8.5–44.5% of the phenotypic variance, respectively; all the resistance alleles at these loci were derived from W014204. In the Fuyu 3/Zhengzhou 5389 population, three QTLs, QLr.hbu-1BL.2, QLr.hbu-2BS.2 and QLr.hbu-7BL, explained 12.0–19.2, 22.3–38.9 and 4.1–4.3% of the phenotypic variance, respectively, and all resistance alleles were contributed by Fuyu 3. Based on chromosome positions of closely linked markers, both QLr.hbu-1BL.1 and QLr.hbu-1BL.2 are Lr46, and QLr.hbu-7DS is Lr34. QLr.hbu-7BL was mapped on chromosome 7BL near to Lr68 and they are likely the same gene. Based on chromosome positions, pedigree and field reactions, the two 2BS QTLs are different from all the known APR genes and are likely to be new APR QTL for leaf rust. These QTLs and their closely linked markers are potentially useful for improving leaf rust resistance in wheat breeding.
