The advancement of Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 has been impeded by its subpar kinetic characteristics, resulting in suboptimal electrochemical performance . In this case, a dual modification strategy involving Ta and F co-doping is employed, along with the incorporation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), is introduced. Notably, the substitution of high-valence Ta 5+ for V 3+ ions induces an n-type doping effect, thereby increasing the density of free electrons and enhancing electrochemical performance. Moreover, Ta 5+ possesses a comparatively larger ionic radius than V 3+ , which enhances the ease of Na + transport, leading to an increased rate of ionic diffusion. Furthermore, Ta 5+ ions play a crucial role in reinforcing the crystal structure, thereby strengthening the stability of the NVP system. Importantly, during the high-temperature calcination process, the reduction of carbon results in the conversion of Ta 5+ to Ta 3+ , forming a novel conductive TaN phase through its reaction with N 2 . This TaN phase, known for its high conductivity, intercalates into the NVP bulk as interlayers, forming beneficial grain boundaries. Thanks to this unique TaN//NVP heterojunction , the migration of Na + ions is notably accelerated along the grain boundaries rather than within the NVP bulk. The introduction of F contributes to reducing the grain size of active particles, consequently shortening the pathways for Na + migration and improving kinetic properties. Moreover, the presence of carbon layers and the encapsulation of CNTs collaboratively construct a highly conductive cross-linking network, elevating both electronic conductivity and mitigating NVP particle aggregation during high-temperature sintering. Consequently, the modified NVTPF0.07/@CNTs sample exhibits outstanding performance in both half and full cells, underscoring its substantial potential for application in the field of sodium-ion batteries.

A facile and green method was developed for the simultaneous doping of nitrogen, boron, and fluorine in TiO 2 by H 2 TiO 3 via a microwave-assisted route. The ionic liquid (IL) [BMIm]BF 4 serves not only as microwave absorbent but also as a dopant. The IL also shows the ability to self-assemble under microwave irradiation, which causes it to act as an inhibitor for the growth of the TiO 2 particles. The N–B–F-tri-doped TiO 2 obtained exhibits large specific surface area, small crystal size, and a mesoporous structure, and the mechanism for the formation of the N–B–F-tri-doped TiO 2 was proposed. The prepared materials exhibit excellent visible light photocatalytic activity in the degradation of organic pollutants, including methyl orange, rhodamine B, Orange G, and reactive red X, which is attributed to the presence of a Ti–B–N structure on the TiO 2 surface, inducing a narrow band gap of 2.78 eV, and the synergistic effects of N, B, and F, which improve the separation efficiency of the photo-generated electron/hole pairs. The results obtained may provide a new sight for the application of ILs in the microwave-assisted preparation of nanomaterials.

White light with excellent color rendering property has been highly required for comfortable and healthy illumination. A facile strategy to achieve high color rendering index (Ra >90) in practical applications is using near ultraviolet chips as excitation sources combined with RGB phosphors. However, achieving high color rendering with both blue chips and near-ultraviolet (NUV) chips for commercial phosphors dispersed in phosphor-in-glass (PiGs) materials is still a big challenge. In this work, the PiG based on the ultra-low melting point Sn–F–P–O glass with commercial green (Lu 3 Al 5 O 12 :Ce 3+ ) and red (Sr x Ca 1-x AlSiN 3 :Eu 2+ ) phosphors has been successfully fabricated by one-step sintering method. The phase identification and distribution of monochromatic red phosphor in glass (R-PiG) and green phosphor in glass (G-PiG) were investigated in detail. The Sn 2+ ions in Sn–F–P–O matrix show the intense blue emission bands centered at 420 nm under the excitation of NUV chips (365 nm). Notably, the polychromatic red/green phosphor in glasses (R/G-PiGs) are versatile and exhibited excellent color rendering (Ra = 93, Ra = 95, Ra = 92, respectively) properties excited by both blue chips, NUV chips and laser diodes (WLD). The working temperature of R/G-PiGs is stable at ∼33 °C and ∼55 °C when employed in WLEDs/WLDs (1 W), which greatly prevented the phenomenon of “thermal quenching” for the phosphors caused by high temperature. Thus, the versatile R/G-PiG with ultra-high color rendering and excellent thermal properties indicates its promising application in high-power white LEDs/LDs.

The aim of the present work was to evaluate different structures of flavonoids interfering with the cytotoxicity of heterocyclic amines (HCA). Eight flavonoids with similar structure including myricetin, rutin, fisetin, quercetin, myricetrin, quercetrin, kaempferol, and galangin were coincubated with 2-amino-4-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinolone (IQ) respectively to determine the cytotoxicity. The results revealed that IQ at low doses showed no cytotoxicity; however, in the presence of myricetin and rutin, the cytotoxicity significantly elevated. It seems that C-3′, C-4′, C-5′, and C-5 hydroxyl substituents on the flavonoid skeleton of B ring play important role in the increasing cytotoxicity induced by IQ in HepG2 cells. Interestingly, the data obtained from the present study revealed an unexpected adverse effect of the supposed beneficial food ingredient myricetin, which appears to be able to increase the cytotoxicity of the procarcinogen HCA.

H 2 O 2 production by 2 electron water oxidation reaction (2e - WOR) is a promising approach, but still lacks mechanistic studies especially from a dynamic point of view. The interfacial water behavior on the solid/liquid interface is believed to play a crucial role in WOR activity. Here, F modification was used to accommodate the structure and dynamic process of interfacial water on WO 3 surface and boost the 2e- WOR activity. Electrochemical measurement, Raman spectra and computational techniques were used to investigate the mechanism. F modification was proved to guide the dipole moments of interfacial water molecules towards WO 3 surface, meaning more difficult to flip interfacial water molecules to perform the first step of WOR, in turn resulting in easy desorption of HO* and O-O*, thus benefiting for 2 e - WOR. This work paves a novel insight to understand mechanism of 2 e - WOR and rationally design the electrocatalysts for H 2 O 2 production from water.

An approach to the detection of F−ions in food samples was developed based on a “switch-off-on” fluorescence probe of silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs). The fluorescence of the synthetic SiNPs was gradually quenched in the presence of Fe3+ion and slightly recovered with the addition of F−ion owing to the formation of a stable and colorless ferric fluoride. The fluorescence recovery exhibited a good linear relationship (R2= 0.9992) as the concentration of F−ion increased from 0 to 100 μmol·L−1. The detection limit of the established method of F−ion was 0.05 μmol·L−1. The recovery experiments confirmed the accuracy and reliability of the proposed method. The ultraviolet–visible spectra, fluorescence decays, and zeta potentials evidenced the fluorescence quenching mechanism involving the electron transfer between the SiNPs and Fe3+ion, while the fluorescence recovery resulted from the formation of ferric fluoride. Finally, SiNPs were successfully applied to detect F−ions in tap water, Antarctic krill, and Antarctic krill powder.Keywords:determination;Fe3+ion;F−ion;fluorescence switch-off-on;silicon nanoparticles;Antarctic krill

The wastewater discharge from the process of chrome plating, which contains 6:2 chlorinated polyfluorinated ether sulfonate (F-53B) and chromium (Cr), may be toxic to biofilm. In this study we found that the biofilm formed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 was inhibited by exposure to a combination of F-53B and Cr(VI). The combined pollution damaged the cell membranes and the structure of the biofilm, and inhibited the production of the Pseudomonas quinolone-based signal, which affected biofilm formation. Moreover, the secretion of extracellular polymeric substances decreased as a result of this combined exposure. Exposure to F-53B and Cr(VI) individually or in combination could induce the excessive accumulation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and the ROS positive rate of the bacteria increased under the treatment with 0.2 mmol/L of Cr(VI) and 250 nmol/L of F-53B, respectively. In addition, the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) were enhanced for scavenging ROS in the bacteria that were exposed to Cr(VI) and F-53B. As an antioxidant, rutin was used to repair the toxicity of Cr(VI) and F-53B towards the biofilm formed by the bacteria. When rutin was added to the bacteria medium, with either Cr(VI) or F-53B as pollutant, or with the combined pollutants, the extracellular protein content of the bacteria recovered to 0.84, 0.94, and 0.85 times that of the control, respectively. Meanwhile, the accumulation of ROS and the activities of SOD and CAT decreased, which indicated that the addition of rutin can alleviate the oxidative stress and promote the antioxidant stress system.

In response to the pressing demand for acetic anhydride gas detection, this study introduces a novel gas sensor for precisely detecting acetic anhydride concentrations. The optimum conditions for the synthesis of cobalt hydroxyfluoride/cobalt oxide (CHFCO) heterojunctions with good acetic anhydride gas sensitivity were determined by carefully adjusting the calcination time, hydrothermal time and ammonium fluoride content. The best performing composite CHFCO sensor with porous rod particles was tested at 180 ℃ and achieved a response rate of 260 for 100 ppm acetic anhydride gas, with response and recovery times of 60 and 40 s, respectively. In comparison to other prepared sensors, the detection response for acetic anhydride was improved by a factor of 4.30–23.63. Moreover, the CHFCO sensor reliably detected acetic anhydride at a concentration of 500 ppb, exhibiting a response value of 1.56. Notably, the sensor demonstrated great selectivity, moisture resistance , and stability. The findings highlight the significant enhancements in gas-sensitive performance to acetic anhydride achieved by the abundant hydroxyl bonds on the surface of CHFCO heterojunction, the presence of fluorine ions , and the modulation of the band gap. These results provide valuable insights for the advancement of acetic anhydride gas sensors based on CHFCO heterojunction.

A novel tricolor F/N co-doped CDs was synthesized by alkali-assisted control with gourd flesh as a precursor, targeting at the catalytic degradation of organic dyes with extremely high catalysis rate. The synthesized nanomaterials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Transmission electron microscopy , Fourier transform infrared spectra and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy techniques, indicating that the tricolor F/N-CDs have good dispersion and abundant surface defects which were gradually increasing from F/N-G-CDs, F/N-Y-CDs to F/N- O -CDs. Through the UV–visible and fluorescence spectra , the tricolor F/N-CDs all exhibited good fluorescence performance and the fluorescence lifetime was nano-scale level. The tricolor F/N-CDs displayed excellent photocatalytic activity which was evaluated by the organic dyes methylene blue (MB) and congo red (CR) as models. The important thing is that under sunlight irradiation, the degradation efficiency of using tricolor F/N-CDs for MB reaches ~100% and the degradation efficiency for CR dye reaches ~98% in a pole short time. With the red shift of the fluorescent tricolor F/N-CDs, the degradation time gradually decreased and the degradation rate gradually increased. The results explained that the prepared tricolor F/N-CDs had excellent application prospects in the natural degradation.

Visible light has better biocompatibility and is more accessible for anti-counterfeiting compared to UV light. However, the synthesis of visible light excitable CDs-based long afterglow materials is still a challenge, especially in aqueous solution. Herein, we provide the first example of visible-light excitable thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) in aqueous solution by confining the fluorine and nitrogen co-doped CDs in silica nanoparticles (F, NCDs@SiO 2 ). The hydrogen network and covalent bonds effectively protect the triplet excitons from quenching by water oxygen, so the nanoparticles can produce long-lived TADF in aqueous solutions under the excitation of white light. Meanwhile, the large number of silanol groups on the surface of amorphous silicon endows F, NCDs@SiO 2 with water solubility making them possible for time-resolved probes. We reveal that fluorine doping is essential for obtaining visible-light excitable TADF, which redshifts the excitation spectra and narrows the energy level between the singlet and triplet states through strong electron-withdrawing effect and heavy-atom effects. Our work provides a new strategy for the development of visible-light-excited TADF materials in aqueous solution and potential applications of CDs in information encryption, temperature sensor and time-resolved fluorescence bioimaging.

A novel sunflower-like nanocomposite of SrCo2S4 nanoflakes and functionalized multiwall carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs) entanglement enveloped in nitrogen-reduced graphene oxide (N-RGO) is prepared by a cheap process. The unique entanglement structure of the material
exhibits higher specific surface area, better electrical conductivity and other properties. This helps to reduce the transfer resistance in the photoelectric process of the battery and improve the electrochemical activity, thus increasing the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery.
The new ternary cobalt-based sulfide material can replace platinum as the counter electrode (CE) material loaded on dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). DSSCs with SrCo2S4@f-MWCNTs@N-RGO (SCS@f-M@N-R) as CE material show excellent photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE,
8.06%), even surpassing than that of Pt CE material (7.51%). The low cost, excellent electrocatalytic performance and simple preparation method of SCS@f-M@N-R nanomaterial provide feasibility for replacing platinum material as the CE material of DSSCs, which is of great significance and persuasion.

A novel fluorescence probe L2 based on coumarin has been designed and synthesized. The probe L2 can be used for relay recognition of metal ions Al 3+ and anion F − in the aqueous HEPES buffer (0.05 M, pH = 7.4), and build a OFF-ON-OFF detection system. The probe showed high selectivity and sensitivity to target ions in the process of relay recognition, and the corresponding detection limit could be as low as 0.014 μM (Al 3+ ) and 0.03 μM (F − ). Besides, the geometry optimizations of probe L2 and [L2 + Al 3+ ] complex were carried out using the Gaussian 16 program based on DFT, and the identification mechanism of the probe was also discussed by the mass spectrometry and theoretical calculations. Moreover, the probe has also been successfully applied to detection of target ions in living cells.
