The SF 6 gas in gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) systems decomposes into SO 2 F 2 , SOF 2 , SO 2 , and H 2 S under abnormal conditions such as partial discharge. The detection of these decomposition gases with high sensitivity is essential for the safe operation of GIS devices. Herein, we report the synthesis of cerium oxide and multiwalled carbon nanotube composite (CeO 2 @MWCNTs). The CeO 2 @MWCNTs composite was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy , X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis. The CeO 2 @MWCNTs composite sensor provided a response value of 7.7 at 100 ppm of SO 2 F 2 at a low operating temperature (50 °C), and the response and recovery features of the CeO 2 @MWCNTs composite sensor were recorded at 43 and 28 s, respectively. Moreover, the composite sensor exhibited excellent stability after two months. The developed CeO 2 @MWCNTs composite sensor can offer an exceptional platform for gas sensing applications in diverse fields.

Water hypoxia and metal pollution are commonly co-existed in urbanized estuaries. This study focuses on the effect of an extended dissolved oxygen (DO) full-life dynamics (86 days) on metal behavior across the sediment-water interface through laboratory microcosms from two typical zones in Pearl River Estuary. Combining our time-series results of concentrations and fluxes, it showed that Co, Ni, and Zn consistently presented a release-precipitation-release trajectory with an oxic-hypoxic-anoxic-reoxic transition, characterized with highly variable behavior in the hypoxic-anoxic hotmoments. In parallel, changing DO dynamics significantly activated a repartitioning process of Co, Ni, and Zn among several species and elevated their risk in sediments, promoting the formation of more labile species in the 0–10 mm hotspots, where metals sensitively responded. Over DO transition, metal cycling was tightly co-related with Fe, Mn, and S elements. It was found that Mn was dominated in low oxygen-hypoxic period, but switched to S and Fe in anoxic stage, limiting sustained metal liberation to overlying water. Enlarging this experiment to practice, released Zn fluxes from sediments in hypoxic summer could contribute about ∼2.0% to their stocks in water column, while increase to 20% (1 m bottom water) in highly-stratified zones. This study has certain significance in understanding the long-term metal behavior and fate in estuarine regions, even lakes and reservoirs.

We report a simple and highly efficient preparation of nanocomposite of halloysite (Hal) nanotubes/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (Hal-MWCNTs) and its electrochemical sensor application for the determination of methyl parathion (MP). The phase structure and surface morphology of the Hal-MWCNTs nanocomposite were confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra. According to the electrochemical tests, the fabricated glassy carbon electrode (GCE) sensor with Hal and multi-walled carbon nanotubes showed excellent MP determination performance because of the synergistic effect of Hal and multi-walled carbon nanotubes . The Hal-MWCNTs/GCE sensor exhibited a relatively low detection limit of 0.034 μM in the linear range of 0.5–11 μM. When used for the determination of MP in real samples, the Hal-MWCNTs/GCE sensor showed good detection effect with satisfactory relative standard deviation (RSD) of 2.46 to 3.08% and recoveries of 98.8 of 101.8%. This work indicated that the nanocomposite of Hal-MWCNTs when coated on GCE is useful for the fabrication of high-performance MP electrochemical sensor.

Sulfide glasses with a high lithium-ion conductivity are promising solid electrolyte for all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries. In this study, 95(0.7Li 2 S–0.3P 2 S 5 )–5Li 3 PO 4 glass electrolyte is prepared by mixing 70Li 2 S-30P 2 S 5 (mol%) glass and Li 3 PO 4 crystal using mechanical milling technique. The effects on the structures and electrochemical properties of the obtained ternary sulfide glass were examined. The ternary sulfide glass shows a good electrochemical stability, which may exhibit a wide electrochemical window up to 10 V (vs. Li/Li + ). Furthermore, the 95(0.7Li 2 S-0.3P 2 S 5 )-5Li 3 PO 4 glass electrolyte displays an electrical conductivity of 2.513 × 10 − 3 S cm − 1 at 100 °C. The all-solid-state lithium-ion cell assembled with 95(0.7Li 2 S-0.3P 2 S 5 )-5Li 3 PO 4 glass electrolyte shows a favourable cyclability, which can reveal a discharge capacity of 144 mAh g − 1 at 0.05 °C and a discharge capacity of 63.9 mAh g − 1 at 0.1C after the 50th cycle at 100 °C, respectively.

Herein, a cost-effective and scalable ultrasound assisted approach was proposed to prepare the nanocomposite of halloysite nanotubes/zirconia/carbon black (Hal/ZrO 2 /CB), which was used to fabricate a novel electrochemical sensor for the highly sensitive determination of methyl parathion (MP). In the Hal/ZrO 2 /CB nanocomposite, Hal with large specific surface area and numerous active sites could enhance the adsorption capacity and accelerate the redox reaction of MP; ZrO 2 nanoparticles with high affinity toward the phosphate group could contribute to good recognition performance for MP; CB nanoparticles with good dispersibility formed an interconnected pearl-chain-like conductive network. Benefitting from the synergistic effect of the three components, the Hal/ZrO 2 /CB/GCE (glassy carbon electrode) sensor showed a remarkably low detection limit of 5.23 nM in a good linear MP detection range of 0.01–10 μM. The Hal/ZrO 2 /CB/GCE sensor possessed a pretty decent practicality with satisfactory RSD and recovery results for the determination of MP in peach, pear, and apple juices. Therefore, the Hal/ZrO 2 /CB/GCE sensor has important implication on the quite sensitive detection of MP.

In this work, we demonstrated tunable structured AlGaN-based nanoporous (NP) distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) with high-reflectivity through one-step vertical-lateral electrochemical etching (ECE). The aperture of nanopores in the doping layer and the size and density of V-pits on the surface of NP-DBRs can be tuned by controlling the etching bias. Furthermore, by further tuning the thickness of alternating layers, we achieved high reflectivity of NP-DBRs at multiple center wavelengths within the wavelength range from 280 to 800 nm. To explore its potential applications, MoS 2 with a photoluminescence (PL) emission in the red light region was grown for the first time on the NP-DBRs. Due to the light localized effect of surface V-pits and the high reflectivity of the bottom DBRs , the PL intensity of MoS 2 was significantly enhanced by a factor of 37.3 compared to the region without NP-DBRs. The PL enhancement of MoS 2 on porous AlGaN and different periodic NP-DBRs further validated the PL enhancement mechanism. The corresponding theoretical simulations also revealed that the PL enhancement should be attributed to the combined effect of enhanced light absorption and NP-DBRs induced emission interference. The fabricated AlGaN-based NP-DBRs provide a new approach for improving the quantum efficiency of two-dimensional layered materials, which holds significant importance for advancing the development of miniaturized and integrated 2D/3D heterogeneous structure systems in the field of optoelectronics.

Structural conversion using core-shell silver (Ag)-platinum (Pt) nanoparticles as starting materials is a promising way to produce nanocomposites consisting of silver sulfide (Ag 2 S) and hollow Pt nanostructures (Ag 2 S-hPtNCs). However, the mechanism behind the structural conversion process is yet to be understood. In this study, we use transmission electron microscope (TEM) as a typical tool to characterize the products formed in different structural conversion processes, and interpret the experimental observations by proposing mechanisms behind the reactions between core-shell Ag-Pt nanoparticles and sulfur precursors from different sources. We then design additional experiments to rationalize the formation mechanism we proposed. The mechanistic understanding of the structural conversion from bimetallic core-shell nanostructures to heterogeneous nanocomposites may extend the fabrication of heterogeneous nanocomposites for a given technological application.

Flexibility, robustness, transparency, and recyclability are critical to the application of self-healing polymer materials in the field of flexible electronics. However, integrating all the above properties remains a huge challenge to date. In this work, we put forward a facile strategy to prepare polyurethane (PU) elastomer with ultra-high strength and self-healing performance based on hydrogen bonds , disulfide dynamic chemistry, and microphase separation at the same time. Three different self-healing PUs were obtained by introducing disulfide bonds and different types of hydrogen bonds. A robust, transparent, and recyclable PU with amino-terminated chain extender (PUA) with fast and efficient self-healing performance was prepared. The mechanical and self-healing properties of the PUA were effectively balanced by the synergistic effect of reversible interaction of disulfide bonds and the formation of microphase separated structure. The results indicated that the PUA exhibited high transparency up to 90% and excellent mechanical property, e.g. the tensile strength and elongation at break can reach 37.10 MPa and 1080%, respectively. Meanwhile, it can achieve a high self-healing efficiency of 96.8% at 80 °C for 4 h and maintain 84% of the initial mechanical strength even after four times of recycling. Moreover, the colloid graphite/PUA flexible strain sensor was prepared by the combination of colloid graphite and PUA, which can accurately detect both large and tiny scale deformations.

The low performance and insufficient catalytic activity of perovskite anodes hinder their further application in intermediate-temperature solid-oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFCs). A novel La 0.8 Sr 0.2 Fe 0.9 Nb 0.1 Pd 0.04 O 3− δ (LSFNP) anode material has been developed with Fe–Pd co-exsolutions for IT-SOFCs. Fe 0 and Pd 0 metallic nanoparticles are confirmed to exsolve on the surface of the perovskite anode during operation under a hydrogen atmosphere. The introduced Pd exsolutions promote the charge-transfer process slightly and the H 2 -adsorption ability of the La 0.8 Sr 0.2 Fe 0.9 Nb 0.1 O 3− δ (LSFN) parent anode significantly, as metallic Pd is a conductor with excellent catalytic activity and an absorber of hydrogen that can absorb a large amount of H 2 by forming unstable chemical bonds. A single cell with the LSFNP anode exhibits high output performance (maximum power density of 287.6 mW cm −2 at T =800 °C by using humidified H 2 as the fuel), excellent redox stability, and considerable coking and sulfur tolerances. After the introduction of Pd exsolutions, the increase in the electrochemical performance is more significant under low H 2 concentrations and at low temperatures with a maximum power density ratio of the LSFNP anode cell/LSFN anode cell reaching 18 under 5 % H 2 /argon at T =650 °C. Pd-decorated LSFNP is a high-performance, redox-stable, coking-tolerant, and sulfur-tolerant anode material for IT-SOFCs, making Pd exsolution a reliable nanodecoration strategy to improve the low kinetics of perovskite anodes. Graphical Ex marks the spot : The La 0.8 Sr 0.2 Fe 0.9 Nb 0.1 Pd 0.04 O 3− δ (LSFNP) anode material with Fe–Pd co-exsolutions for intermediate-temperature solid-oxide fuel cells is prepared.

LSFNP anode exhibits high performance, good redox-stability, good coking and sulfur tolerance. A maximum power density of 287.6 mW cm −2 is obtained at 800 °C using humidified H 2 as the fuel.

TiO2/(ZnS)x(CuInS2)1−x nanocomposites were prepared from oleic acid-capped TiO2 nanocrystals and alloyed (ZnS)x(CuInS2)1−x nanocrystals. Element mapping and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results suggested that the nanocomposites exhibit homogeneous composition with uniform mesoporous structure. High photocatalytic activities driven by simulated solar light were achieved owning to their high surface area and efficient electron transfer from (ZnS)x(CuInS2)1−x to TiO2. This work enables the synthesis of a large variety of photocatalysts from nanocrystal building blocks for various applications beyond photodegradation of organic pollutants.

In recent years, the development of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with high energy density has become one of the important research directions to fulfill the needs of electric vehicles and smart grid technologies. Nowadays, traditional LIBs have reached their limits in terms of capacity, cycle life, and stability, necessitating their further improvement and development of alternative materials with remarkably enhanced properties. A nitrogen-containing carbon nanotube (N-CNT) host for bimetallic sulfide (NiCo 2 S 4 ) is proposed in this study as an anode with attractive electrochemical performance for LIBs. The prepared NiCo 2 S 4 /N-CNT nanocomposite exhibited improved cycling stability, rate performance, and an excellent reversible capacity of 623.0 mAh g –1 after 100 cycles at 0.1 A g –1 and maintained a high capacity and cycling stability at 0.5 A g –1 . The excellent electrochemical performance of the composite can be attributed to the unique porous structure, which can effectively enhance the diffusivity of Li ions while mitigating the volume expansion during the charge–discharge processes.
