Biodegradable polymers have received increased attention due to their potential application in the medicine and food industries; in particular, poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a primary biopolymer because of its excellent biocompatibility and absorbability features. In this study, a porous PLA membrane was fabricated by phase separation using water microdroplets produced by an ultrasonic atomizer as a coagulation bath. The formation of S-type clusters was attributed to the slow exchange rate between solvent and coagulant, which provided time for the movement of polymer molecules. The effect of preparation conditions on the structure of S-type clusters, including polymer concentration in solution and ambient temperature was investigated. The PLA porous membrane prepared from water micro-droplets with different morphology compared with the sample fabricated from distilled water has potential application in fields of tissue engineering and artificial organ generation. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ferroelectric thin films with giant room-temperature electrocaloric effect (ECE) could be very useful in design of solid-state refrigeration devices. Here, lead-free Ba 0.85 Ca 0.15-x Sr x Zr 0.1 Ti 0.9 O 3 (BCZT-xSr, 0.01 ≤ x ≤ 0.10) thin films are successfully prepared on the substrates (Pt/Ti/SiO 2 /Si) via sol-gel route, and the effect of the Sr substitution on the structure, electric properties and ECE of the films were investigated. The dielectric analyses show that the rhombohedral-tetragonal phase transition temperature (T R-T ) move to a higher temperature and the tetragonal-cubic phase transition temperature (T m ) shift to a lower temperature with increasing Sr content, and finally the T R-T peaks merge into the T m peaks at room temperature. The BCZT-0.05Sr film presents a giant ECE with ΔT = 27.1 K and ΔS = 30.6 J K −1 kg −1 at 800 kV cm -1 near room temperature (301 K). The giant ΔT benefits from a multiphase coexisting region with successive R-T and T-C phase transition character near room temperature. These results indicate that the lead-free Sr-doped BCZT thin film is an attractive material for application in ECE refrigeration devices.

A new rare-earth borate Na3YB8O15 was fabricated by the flux method. The compound crystallizes in the P group, and shows a three-dimensional network built by [B8O17] fundamental building blocks (FBBs) with [NaO6], [NaO7], and [YO7] polyhedra. The [B8O17] FBBs are composed of five planar BO3 and three BO4 tetrahedra and connected via corner-sharing to construct a unique one-dimensional (1D) [B8O15]∞ infinity chain that is observed for the first time in the Na2O–Y2O3–B2O3 system compound, enriching the structural diversity of rare-earth borate. The title compound exhibits a short ultraviolet (UV) cutoff edge of ∼195 nm and a wide experimental band gap of 5.50 eV. DFT calculations indicate that Na3YB8O15 is a direct band gap compound with a calculated GGA band gap of 5.14 eV, and the band gap is mainly determined by B 2p and O 2p orbitals. The results update the phase diagram of Na2O–Y2O3–B2O3 and enrich the diversity of rare-earth metal borates.

An adipic acid/boric acid (AA–BA) binary eutectic mixture containing 80 wt % adipic acid and 20 wt % boric acid was investigated as a new phase change material (PCM) with high latent heat, high thermal stability, and low cost. The material′s thermophysical properties and thermal stability were studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The thermal stability was investigated in situ over 100 cycles using DSC. The phase change temperature of the AA–BA binary eutectic mixture was 135.04 °C and the latent heats of the melting and crystallization process were 283.42 and 272.16 J g −1 , respectively. The latent heat of melting only dropped 4.94 % after in situ 100 cycles using DSC. Following comparison of thermal properties and price of the AA–BA eutectic mixture PCM with those of some composite PCMs, the results indicate that the newly prepared AA–BA eutectic mixture is a potential phase change material for thermal storage tanks.

In this work, the two-dimensional MoS 2 film was prepared by sulfuring the molybdenum atomic layer on SiO 2 /Si substrate. The reaction temperature, heating rate, holding time and carrier gas flow rate were investigated comprehensively. The quality of MoS 2 film was characterized by optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy, Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The characterization results showed that the optimum synthesis parameters were heating rate of 25 °C/min, reaction temperature of 750 °C, holding time of 30 min and carrier gas velocity of 100 sccm. The MoS 2 gas sensor was fabricated and its gas sensing performance was tested. The test results indicated that the sensor had a good response to both reducing gas (NH 3 ) and oxidizing gas (NO 2 ) at room temperature. The sensitivity to 100 ppm of NO 2 was 31.3%, and the response/recovery times were 4 s and 5 s, respectively. In addition, the limit of detection could be as low as 1 ppm. This work helps us to develop low power and integrable room temperature NO 2 sensors.

The Sc 3+ ions doped NaYF 4 : Yb 3+ , Er 3+ upconversion (UC) nanoparticles are synthesized by thermal decomposition method. We successfully obtained the upconversion luminescence (UCL) nanoparticles from green emission to red emission through doping Sc 3+ ions with different concentrations. Based on the XRD, the phase change process of Sc 3+ ions doped NaYF 4 nanocrystalline phase were demonstrated. More importantly, through the analysis of UC spectrum data, the change in the phase of the NaY/ScF 4 : Yb 3+ , Er 3+ nanocrystalline corresponds to the change in its luminous properties. It determines that the change of crystal field will lead to the change of luminescence, and then modulate the luminescence. NaScF 4 : Yb 3+ , Er 3+ UC nanoparticles exhibit strong red light emission. In addition, the temperature-sensitive properties of the optimal doping concentration of Sc 3+ ion were tested. The sensitivity of NaYF 4 : Yb 3+ , Er 3+ nanoparticles doped with Sc 3+ ion reached the maximum value of 0.024 K − 1 at 498 K. The nanocrystalline has great application value in the fields of optical temperature measurement, biomedicine, bioprobes and colorful display.

The regular orthorhombic Nb 2 O 5 (O-Nb 2 O 5 ) rectangle nanosheets dominantly exposed (010) facet are synthesized by a hydrothermal topological reaction with a precursor of K 4 Nb 6 O 17 ·4.5H 2 O (KNbO). The structure and morphology of the samples obtained at different temperatures and pH values of reacting solution are investigated. The results suggest that there are two topological reactions in this process. One is the acid-exchanging reaction transforming into H 4 Nb 6 O 17 ·3H 2 O (HNbO) nanosheets from KNbO rectangle nanosheets , and the other is dehydration reaction transforming into O-Nb 2 O 5 rectangle nanosheets from HNbO nanosheets. And the {010} facets of O-Nb 2 O 5 crystal are transformed from the {010} facets of HNbO crystal in the ingenious topological reaction. The photoelectric performance of the obtained O-Nb 2 O 5 nanosheets is evaluated by decomposing water to H 2 under 370 nm UV light illumination and measuring the accompanying photocurrent . The photocurrent density is 680 nA·cm − 2 generated by splitting water with O-Nb 2 O 5 nanosheets as photocatalyst , and it is 4.3 times of the contrast sample. The result indicates that the (010) facet of O-Nb 2 O 5 is one of the highest photocatalytic active surfaces and shows high photoelectric conversion efficiency. Thus, the O-Nb 2 O 5 nanosheets dominantly exposed (010) facet have potential applications in photocatalyst and photoelectric nanodevices .

Far-red light plays a crucial role in the field of plant lighting. Herein, a novel far-red phosphor BaAl 2 Si 3 O 4 N 4 : Sm 2+ , which can be effectively excited by blue light, was successfully prepared by high-temperature solid-state reaction. The PL spectrum show a broadband emission range from 600 nm to 950 nm (FWHM = 120 nm), which is well matched with the absorption of P FR in plant. In BaAl 2 Si 3 O 4 N 4 : Sm 2+ , the Ba 2+ are coordinated with three N and six O atoms. When the rare earth ion of Sm 2+ was doped into the host lattice , Ba 2+ was partially replaced by Sm 2+ . The low temperature PL spectra at 8–80 K were studied in detail. It was found that the PL spectra at low temperature were composed of some sharp lines and broadband superposition, which corresponding to the 5 D 0 - 7 F J (J = 0–4) energy level transition of Sm 2+ . It is shown that the broadband emission of the phosphor was caused by the broadening of the 4f 5 5 d 1 energy level due to the strong crystal field effect. The thermal stability analysis showed that the luminescence intensity of BaAl 2 Si 3 O 4 N 4 : Sm 2+ at 150 °C still maintains 62.7 % of that at room temperature , showing excellent thermal stability. All results indicate that BaAl 2 Si 3 O 4 N 4 : Sm 2+ phosphor has important potential applications in the field of plant lighting.

Copper zinc tin sulfide (Cu2ZnSnS4, CZTS) is attracting interest in photovoltaic applications due to its proper band gap, low cost and low toxicity. It has been found that two phases can be fabricated, i.e. kesterite and wurtzite CZTS structures. Though kesterite CZTS is proven to be thermodynamically stable, the free energy difference between kesterite and wurtzite CZTS is rather small. So, wurtzite CZTS can also stably exist under ambient conditions. Controlling the phase formation can expand the dimensions to optimize the performance of applications based on CZTS. In this study, we found that phase control can be achieved by simply using a mixed solvent of ethylene glycol and triethylenetetramine (TETA) in a two-stage heating process. It is found that the incorporation of the reductive solvent of TETA during the 1st heating process converts the phase of the precipitates from CuS (TETA poor) to Cu7S4 (TETA rich). In the subsequent 2nd heating stage, the phase of the final products is determined to be kesterite CZTS originating from CuS and wurtzite CZTS from Cu7S4, respectively. Thus, the key to control the phases of the final products is to control the chemical environment of Cu under Cu1+-rich or Cu2+-rich conditions in the fabrication process, which corresponds to the phase of the final products of wurtzite CZTS or kesterite CZTS, respectively. This summarized principle can not only be used to explain the previous versatile experimental results but also to guide the controlled synthesis of various phases of CZTS and CZTS-like materials in applications.

Contactless thermometer based on fluorescence intensity ratio shows unparalleled characteristics compared with traditional contact thermometers. However, few materials are suitable for high temperature (above 573 K) measurement. In this work, Pr 3+ was selected as the emitter and Y 3 GaO 6 :xPr 3+ luminescent thermometers were designed. The phase, crystal structure and morphology were identified using X-ray diffraction, Rietveld refinement and scanning electron microscope. The spectra with multiple ranges were temperature sensitive due to the cross-relaxion mechanism that occurs in the luminescence process. The parameters for temperature measurement were determined based on the peak intensity ratio of 506 and 610 nm at different temperatures (from 293 to 823 K). Y 3 GaO 6 :0.01Pr 3+ displays excellent temperature sensitive performance, in which the relative sensitivity values increase along with the temperature in a wide temperature range and reach 4.09 % K −1 . The thermometric visualization in Y 3 GaO 6 :xPr 3+ can be achieved due to the widely varying luminescence colors at different temperatures.

Natural systems have exceptional capabilities of constructing structures across multiple length scales for remarkable performances from limited choices of building blocks. However, simultaneous control over structures at both the macroscopic and microscopic length scales is restricted by the high requirements in the type and property of building blocks. Here, directed self-assembly of microdroplets in an evaporating liquid is harnessed to fabricate large-scale ordered films with precisely controlled microstructures. Evaporation-induced variations in liquid confinement allow microdroplets to reassemble for large-scale ordered patterns. Deformation of microdroplets into different shapes accurately defines multiple topographical structures at the microdroplet level. The fabrication process is facile and scalable, and works with various materials for manufacturing functional films with tunable properties. These results suggest a facile yet effective strategy for engineering microstructures by combining directed self-assembly with manipulation of the property of building components for both structural fidelity and diversity.

The main inorganic minerals in natural bones are non-stoichiometric hydroxyapatite (HA, Ca 10 [PO 4 ] 6 [OH] 2 ) doped with various trace elements, which may possess important biochemical effects. To investigate the functions of Sr and Si elements in human hard tissues, non-doped HA, trace Si doped HA, Si and Sr codoped HA with the concentration of natural bones are synthesized by hydrothermal method in this study. The samples are characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The biological activities are evaluated via cytotoxicity study, adhesion and proliferation of osteoblast measurement, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assay. All the synthesized materials are HA phase, which have hierarchical structures with oriented HA nanorods assembled into the platy particles. These materials are non-cytotoxic against L929 cells line even at 400 μg/ml powder suspension. The results clearly indicate that the proliferation of L929 cells increases with trace elements doping from trace Si-HA to Si + Sr-HA. The adhesion and proliferation of osteoblast measurement illustrates that proliferation of osteoblasts advances about 1.3 times for Si-HA and about 1.8 times for Si + Sr-HA compared with undoped HA. In general, Si-HA with trace Si element shows enhanced cell differentiation, and Si + Sr-HA dual-doped with Si and Sr elements presents increased biological activity compared with Si-HA.
