The inherent single narrow emission peak and fast anion exchange process of cesium lead halide perovskite CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) nanocrystals severely limited its application in white light-emitting diodes. Previous studies have shown that composite structures can passivate surface defects of NCs and improve the stability of perovskite materials, but complex post-treatment processes commonly lead to dissolution of NCs. In this study, CsPb(Cl/Br)3 NCs was in-situ grown in TiO2 hollow shells doped with Eu3+ ions by a modified thermal injection method to prepare CsPb(Cl/Br)3/TiO2:Eu3+ composites with direct excitation of white light without additional treatment. Among them, the well-crystalline TiO2 shells acted as both a substrate for the dopant, avoiding the direct doping of Eu3+ into the interior of NCs to affect the crystal structure of the perovskite materials, and also as a protection layer to isolate the contact between PL quenching molecules and NCs, which significantly improves the stability. Further, the WLED prepared using the composites had bright white light emission, luminous efficiency of 87.39 lm/W, and long-time operating stability, which provided new options for the development of perovskite devices.

Developing nanomaterials as alternatives of enzymes is of great significance to realize qualification and quantitation of superoxide anion (O 2 − ), which has been proved to play a crucial role in physiological condition. In this work, a novel electrochemical catalyst of cobalt nanoparticle doped porous cubic carbon (Co-PCC) was prepared through the calcination of zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67), which was obtained from one-step synthesis. Then Co-PCC was used to construct enzyme-free electrochemical sensor for the detection of O 2 − . The response of H 2 O 2 , though much lower than that of O 2 − , was also caught by the Co-PCC/SPCE. The fabricated sensor exhibited obvious response towards O 2 − in the range of 0.8–76.8 μM (R 2 = 0.997) with a high sensitivity of 3.59 × 10 −4 mA μM −1 cm −2 and a limit of detection of 0.41 μM (S/N = 3). In addition, the proposed sensor can be used to detect O 2 − released from SK-BR-3 cells, which makes it possible to monitor the dynamic change of O 2 − in living cells.

Mixed halide CsPb(Br/Cl) 3 quantum dots (QDs) exhibit fine tunable blue light and narrow photoluminescence (PL) full-width at half-maximum (FWHM), which has attracted significant attention as a promising candidate to realize a new generation of blue light technology. However, the introduction of Cl − makes it very easy to be eroded by water in the environment, which will lead to deep-level defects and degrade the luminescence and stability of QDs. Here, we propose to introduce tetra- n -octylammonium oxalate (TOAOxa) to improve the water-resistance stability and exciton recombination of CsPb(Br/Cl) 3 QDs and QD-based light-emitting diodes (QLEDs). The oxalate ion (Oxa 2− ) of TOAOxa could form strong interaction with undercoordinated Pb 2+ on CsPb(Br/Cl) 3 QD surface, which was confirmed by FTIR and XPS analysis. Oxa 2− passivated QDs (Oxa-QDs) exhibited improved photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and enhanced water-resistance stability compared to pristine QDs. For example, after soaking in water–acetone co-solvent for 1 h, Oxa-QDs can maintain the initial cubic morphology and 43.9% of initial PL intensity, while the morphology and luminescence of pristine QDs are almost damaged. Based on the above concept, the Oxa-QD-based QLED presented a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 4.0%, and operational lifetime (T 50 ) of 84 s, which was a 5-fold enhancement in EQE, and 7-fold enhancement in stability compared to pristine QLED, respectively. Besides, the Oxa-QD-based QLED exhibits better stability in high-humidity air. To sum up, the Oxa 2− passivation strategy has significantly improved the efficiency and water-resistant stability of QDs and devices and would rapidly promote the development of blue-emitting QDs.

The mechanism for aerobic oxidation of methylaromatic compounds using Co(CH 3 COO) 2 –Mn(CH 3 COO) 2 –KBr was further studied. The experimental results suggested that the intermediates (aromatic alcohols) are unexpectedly inert to direct oxidation via Co–Mn–Br catalysts under moderate conditions. In addition, it is found that both aromatic and aliphatic alcohols can inhibit the oxidation of the substrates and other intermediates (aromatic esters, aromatic aldehydes). UV–vis spectra indicated that oxidation from Co(II) to Co(III) would be interrupted in the presence of a given amount of alcohol. A plausible mechanism was also proposed. The intermediates analyzed by LC–MS and control experiments showed that aromatic alcohols prefer to undergo esterification rather than being directly oxidized as described in previous studies, and aromatic acetates are subsequently oxidized to corresponding aldehydes. According to the new mechanism, a strategy of highly selectively synthesizing aromatic alcohols and aldehydes from corresponding methylaromatic compounds was designed. The selectivities of aromatic alcohols and aldehydes could also be tuned by the added amount of CH 3 COOK.

Flow batteries are promising for renewable energy storage due to their safety and scalability. Zinc/bromine flow batteries (Zn/Br) are popular due to their high energy densities and inexpensive electrolytes. However, they have a poor service life and lead to environmental harm as a result of the generated corrosive and volatile Br 2 . Here we introduce a Br 2 scavenger to the catholyte, reducing the Br 2 concentration to an acceptable level (~7 mM). The scavenger, sodium sulfamate (SANa), reacts rapidly with Br 2 to form a mild product, N -bromo sodium sulfamate (Br-SANa; Br + ). Additionally, the two-electron transfer reaction of Br-SANa/Br − (Br + /Br − ) increases the energy density. We have developed a Zn/Br flow battery, paired with a Zn anode, that outperforms traditional Zn/Br flow batteries in energy density (152 Wh l −1 versus 90 Wh l −1 ) and cycle life (>600 versus 30 cycles), using a sulfonated polyetheretherketone membrane. We assembled a 5-kW stack that operated stably for over 700 cycles (~1,400 h). Using this reaction, we have built a large-scale battery system.

Lithium argyrodites electrolyte with high ionic conductivity and relatively lower cost show great potential as candidates for solid-state batteries. Further improvement of their conductivities can accelerate their applications. One of the means to significantly promote the conductivity of Li-ion is dual doping. Herein, Ag/Br dual-doping strategy is applied on Li 6 PS 5 Br (2.76 mS cm −1 ) to boast its conductivity to 6.15 mS cm −1 for Li 5.55 Ag 0.05 PS 4.6 Br 1.4 . The structural variations and chemical/electrochemical stability of the obtained electrolyte are carefully investigated. Li 3 InCl 6 electrolyte is introduced in the new battery configuration to mitigate the interfacial instability with LiNi 0.6 Mn 0.2 Co 0.2 O 2 active material enabling good electrochemical performances . The assembled battery delivers a discharge capacity of 160.8 mAh g −1 for the 1st cycle and maintains 85.9% of the initial value after 50 cycles at 0.5C. This modification strategy was proved effective for increasing the conductivity of sulfide electrolytes in this work.

Carbon molecular sieve (CMS), as the gas separation membrane materials, still faces challenges for regulation pore diameter precisely. In this work, we propose to reconstruct the 6FDA-DAM-Br-85% polyimide CMS membranes by introducing 6,6'-(1,4-phenylenebis(((4-hydroxyphenyl)amino)methylene))bis(dibenzo[c,e][1,2] oxaphosphinine6-oxide) small molecule compound (DOPO- p -DP) as crosslinking agent to regulate the pore distribution. The crosslinked precursors were obtained via the reaction between C–Br bond in 6FDA-DAM-Br-85% polyimide and N–H bond in DOPO- p -DP compound, the precursors and CMS membranes (550 °C- 2 h) were characterized with ATR-TFIR, XRD and XPS. The pore size distribution of crosslinked CMS membranes was range in 4.5–8.0 Å from the N 2 adsorption data. The crosslinked CMS membranes exhibited excellent gas separation performance, which was strongly dependent on the mass fraction of DOPO- p -DP, an increasing mass fraction of DOPO- p -DP leaded to improve in gas selectivity, while reduced its permeability. The 6FDA-DAM-Br-85%/DOPO- p -DP-20% CMS membrane showed the impressive permeability and superior gas selectivity, the permeabilities of O 2 , CO 2 , and H 2 are 798, 3018, and 13560 Barrer combined with the O 2 /N 2 , CO 2 /CH 4 , and H 2 /CH 4 selectivities of 7.8, 65.6, and 294.8 respectively, the separation performances surpassed the latest trade-off relationship. In addition, the 20% of the DOPO- p -DP crosslinked CMS membrane revealed the superior aging behaviour than that of the 6FDA-DAM-Br-85% CMS membrane over 480 h aging under vacuum conditions.

Currently, metal halide perovskite nanocrystals have been extensively explored due to their unique optoelectronic properties and wide application prospects. In the present work, a facile grinding method is developed to prepare whole-family APbX3 (A = MA, FA, and Cs; X = Cl, Br, and I) perovskite nanocrystals. This strategy alleviates the harsh synthesis conditions of precursor dissolution, atmosphere protection, and high temperature. Impressively, the as-prepared perovskite nanocrystals are evidenced to have halogen-rich surfaces and yield visible full-spectral emissions with maximal photoluminescence quantum yield up to 92% and excellent stability. Additionally, the grinding method can be extended to synthesize widely concerned Mn2+-doped CsPbCl3 nanocrystals with dual-modal emissions of both excitons and dopants. As a proof-of-concept experiment, the present perovskite nanocrystals are demonstrated to be applicable as blue/green/red color converters in UV-excitable white-light-emitting diodes.

Background The enrichment of sugar phosphates (SPx) from complex biological samples was of significant importance for elucidating their roles in physiological and pathological processes. However, the detection of SPx faced numerous challenges due to the high structural similarity among its isomers, its extremely low abundance within cells, the complexity of biological samples, and the inefficiency and cumbersome nature of traditional enrichment methods. Therefore, there was an urgent need to develop an efficient enrichment technique, leveraging the advantages of magnetic separation to achieve precise detection of sugar phosphates in biological samples. Results A novel magnetic material, Fe 3 O 4 @UiO-66-Br, was synthesized for efficient and convenient enrichment of SPx in biological samples. The material exhibited a high specific surface area (225.08 m 2 /g) and strong magnetism (33.61 emu·g −1 ). Only 600 μg of Fe 3 O 4 @UiO-66-Br was required to completely adsorb five types of SPx within 4 min. The adsorption process was pH-tolerant and can be accomplished simply by standing. Kinetic, thermodynamic, and isotherm studies revealed favorable adsorption properties, characterized as spontaneous and endothermic monolayer chemisorption. Mechanistic studies using XPS, FT-IR, and DFT identified multiple interactions, including coordination, hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic interactions. The analytical protocol featured a wide linear range (0.01–10000 ng/mL), low detection limits (0.002–0.01 ng/mL), high precision (RSD<13.21 %), and accuracy (80.05 %–116.41 %). Significance The protocol was successfully applied to real blood samples, demonstrating the potential of magnetic MOFs for SPx adsorption and detection. This novel material and protocol provided an efficient approach for enriching and detecting trace SPx in complex biological matrices, facilitating further studies on their roles in physiological and pathological processes.

The soft ionic nature, tunable lattice structure, variable component, and solution processability make metal halide perovskite (MHP) materials good candidates as high-entropy materials. Although composition regulation of the X site can be easily achieved by mixing two types of halogens, it remains challenging to prepare high-entropy MHP (HEMHP) with three types of halogens due to the large octahedral factor (μ) difference of [PbX6]4–. Fundamental research is explored to synthesize HEMHP incorporating Cl–, Br–, and I– via μ regulation engineering, which breaks the limitation of a 6% Cl/I ratio in perovskite to achieve 116%. Doping AlCl3 in CsPbBrI2 could successfully reduce the μ differences for [Pb1–aAlaX6](4–a)–, shorten the Pb–X bond length, and enhance the Pb–X bond energy via the Al–X covalent bond. Therefore, the crystal distortion and halogen ion migration could be inhibited to form a homogeneous HEMHP, such as Cs1.18Pb0.92Al0.08(Cl0.13Br0.51I0.36)2.45L–0.81, Cs1.12Pb0.88Al0.12(Cl0.25Br0.49I0.26)2.53L–0.71, and Cs1.06Pb0.85Al0.15(Cl0.29Br0.46I0.25)2.43L–0.78. Such μ regulation engineering method is feasible and universal to use other metal ions (Zn2+, Mn2+, and In3+) to synthesize single-phase HEMHP. Furthermore, the optical band gap and emission peak wavelength for HEMHP and MHP are linearly dependent on their lattice distances, which is the intrinsic characteristic for composition-depended perovskite.

Although significant progress has been made in improving the external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) of perovskite quantum dot (QD) light-emitting diodes (QLEDs), understanding the degradation mechanism and enhancing stability remain a challenge. Herein, increasing the content of Br-based passivation ligands is shown to enhance the EQE up to 16.1% by reducing the defects of CsPbBr 3 QDs in a Br-rich environment. However, the operational lifetimes of perovskite QLEDs gradually decrease with the increase of halide content, owing to the intensified ion migration under continuous electric field confirmed by the current behavior of QLEDs and time-of-flight secondary-ion mass spectrometry. Furthermore, a thorough analysis of the relationship between electricity and luminance of QLEDs suggests that a small amount of residue oleic acid ligands could weaken ion migration. Accordingly, a halide- and acid-hybrid (HAH) co-passivation strategy is proposed to optimize the content of Br- and acid-based ligands, and achieve a maximum EQE of 18.6% and an operational lifetime ( T 50 , extrapolated) of 213 h for CsPbBr 3 QLEDs. This approach for passivating QDs combines the high efficiency of Br-based ligands with the improved stability of acid-based ligands. The study elucidates the correlation between ligands and device performance, highlighting the significance of two or even multiple ligands for efficient and stable perovskite QLEDs.

Objective To investigate the antiviral effect of Salvia plebeia R. Br. polysaccharides (SPP) against RSV and underlying mechanisms. Methods SPP was extracted via alcohol-precipitation method and extract was separated into various fractions using ultrafiltration method. The polysaccharide content was determined using UV-Vis. Antiviral effect of SPP and fractions was measured using MTT method and Reed-Muench method. Sixty Balb/c mice were randomly divided into 6 groups, and received either Ribavirin or SPP. Their body weight and food intake were recorded every day throughout the experiment period. The lung index inhibition ratio and pulmonary virus titer were determined followed by the histological analysis of lungs. Furthermore, time-of-addition and effective stage analysis were carried out to determine the mechanism of action. The TLR-3 and TLR-4 levels in the lungs were determined using qRT-PCR. The levels of IFN-γ, IL-2 and TNF-α in serum were determined using ELISA. Results The SPP content is 4.396%. SPP has shown a good anti-RSV effect both in vitro (TI = 123.041) and in vivo models. The antiviral activity of fractions with molecular weight ≥ 10,000 is found to possess more potent antiviral activity than other fractions. SPP inhibits the RSV proliferation and reduces the lung lesions induced by RSV. The mechanism of action involves the inhibition of TLR-3 and TLR-4 in lungs, up-regulation of IFN-γ and IL-2, and down-regulation of TNF-α in serum. It is also shown to improve the body’s immune function. Conclusion SPP has a potential to treat diseases caused by RSV.
