Overheating caused by exothermic effect of magnesiothermic reduction reaction is usually considered as a drawback in preparing porous silicon anode materials for Li-ion batteries. However, in the present work, thermal effect is available in facile preparation of macroporous Si by tabletting pretreatment . The released heat in magnesiothermic reaction is easily accumulated on the tablet with high density, leading to the collapse of the mesoporous structure of the precursor and formation of uniform macroporous silicon . Such macroporous silicon shows a higher initial Coulomb efficiency (86.5%) and enhanced cycling stability in comparison with mesoporous silicon prepared without tabletting treatment. XRD analysis indicates that the reaction temperature decreases to 430–435 °C (based on set temperature), much lower than that of the reaction without pretreatment. Since the structure of product has less dependency on precursor, a wide variety of precursors can be used to synthesize macroporous silicon, e.g. low cost biosilica. Being ascribed to low reaction temperature, heating rate insensitivity, less dependency on precursor, enhanced cycling performance and high initial Coulomb efficiency of the Si products, the modified magnesiothermic reduction method is promising for application in fabricating Si anode.

A nano-carbon composite, consisting of a graphene aerogel-carbon nanotube (CNT) film, is constructed by coating a strong and flexible CNT film onto the surface of a porous graphene aerogel core. The prepared gradient composite, ultralight and strong, can carry objects more than 15,000 times its own weight, exhibiting impressive compression resistance. Compared to the original graphene aerogel , the composite exhibits 8–9-fold increased values in its elastic modulus and compressive strength at a strain of 20% and an approximately 10-fold increase in electrical conductivities in the axial direction . In addition, the elastic recovery ability after compressive deformation and the ability to preserve liquid are also improved.

In the past few years, silane coupling agents are often used to modify the surface of silicon materials; however, researches in preparation of SiO X -based materials pyrolyzed from silane coupling agents are seldom reported. Hence, in order to prepare amorphous SiO X @C anodes for Li-ion storage, we adopted three kinds of silane coupling agents as organic silicon sources. The results show that silane coupling agents with vinyl group is the optimum organic silicon source. Owing to the strong chemical bonds of Si–O–C, amorphous SiO X particles are uniformly embedded in carbon matrix, forming monodisperse microbeads architecture with good buffer abilities. Therefore, the V-SiO X @C anodes derived from silane coupling agents with vinyl groups show good electrochemical performance, retaining a reversible discharge capacity of 940 mAh g −1 at a current density of 100 mA g −1 after 200 cycles, and it still depicts a good long-term cycling durability, maintaining 739 mAh g −1 at a current density of 400 mA g −1 after 400 cycles.

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.

Low temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) technology is extensively utilized to meet the requirements of device integration and miniaturization. Low-fired Li 3 Mg 2 NbO 6 ceramics doped with x wt% Li 2 O–MgO–B 2 O 3 –CaF 2 –SiO 2 glass (LMBCS, x = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0) were prepared by the solid-state reaction method for applications in microwave communication materials. All samples exhibited a single-phase Li 3 Mg 2 NbO 6 structure. The addition of LMBCS glass effectively reduced the sintering temperature of Li 3 Mg 2 NbO 6 ceramics from 1250 °C to 875 °C. And adding LMBCS glass improved the Q × f value of Li 3 Mg 2 NbO 6 ceramics. The Li 3 Mg 2 NbO 6 -1.0wt% LMBCS ceramics exhibited outstanding microwave dielectric properties: ε r = 16.8, Q × f = 89,495 GHz, τ f = − 27.4 ppm/°C at 875 °C, which indicates that this ceramic is potential candidate materials for LTCC.

N,N -dimethylamino-4′-N′-methylstilbazolium 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonate (DSTMS)-graphene ex-situ and in-situ composite films with 2% concentration of graphene were first prepared and systematically investigated. The crystallinity of DSTMS-based composite films were confirmed by XRD analysis, and the functional groups of composite films can be obtained by FT-IR. Optical absorptions were recorded using UV–Vis-NIR spectral analysis, and the band gap and extinction coefficient of the films were calculated. The thermal stability of the composite films were analyzed by TG/DSC. The pressure sensitive resistance test showed that the pressure sensitive signal of the composite films were significantly increased after graphene added, while the signal of DSTMS film eventually disappears. This work expands the application of organic nonlinear crystal DSTMS in optics and electricity by doping graphene.

Light absorption range, recycling stability and charge transfer efficiency are key to the performance of photocatalytic material. Based on these targets, a Al doped TiO 2 catalyst was synthesized by the evaporation-induced process, after processed by NaBH 4 reduction, the black TiO 2 doped with Al was finally prepared. Uv-vis DRS, EPR and XPS analyses confirm the expanded light absorption window (300 nm - 1000 nm) and the introduction of abundant oxygen vacancy after the reduction process. The final product BTiO 2 /Al-0.5 has a degradation rate of about 84 % over the tetracycline hydrochloride within 60 minutes, the reaction rate constant (k) is 10.6 times higher than the unreduced sample. The dramatic change of photocatalytic ability can be assigned to the broadened visible light absorption , increased charge separation efficiency, narrowed band gap and defect-enriched oxygen vacancy . This work offers insights into the fabrication of TiO 2 catalyst and the introduction of oxygen defect.

A strategy for preparing ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA)/graphene nanocomposites from liquid-phase exfoliated graphene has been explored with the use of a pyrene-functionalized hyperbranched polyethylene (HBPE) ternary copolymer, HBPE@Py@PMA, as stabilizer for graphite exfoliation. The HBPE@Py@PMA was synthesized by combining the Pd-diimine-catalyzed chain walking ternary ethylene copolymerization and atomic transfer radical polymerization techniques and has been confirmed to possess a HBPE core simultaneously bearing pyrene terminal groups and polymethacrylate side chains. As stabilizer, it is found to effectively promote graphite exfoliation in CHCl 3 to render high-quality few-layer graphene with an efficiency as high as 43%. Meanwhile, it can be steadily adsorbed on the exfoliated graphene surface to concurrently render functionalized graphene well dispersible in EVA matrix with strong interfacial interactions. This allows us to obtain EVA/graphene nanocomposites from resulting graphene dispersion through simple solution mixing process. By adding only 0.5 wt% of graphene, the dielectric constant of resulting composite increases by 55% compared to pure EVA, with a dielectric loss only 0.012. The role mechanism of the HBPE@Py@PMA for promoting graphite exfoliation in CHCl 3 and the formation of EVA/graphene nanocomposites from the resulting graphene has been proposed.

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.

Fabrication of nanowires in polymer films can dramatically enhance the mobility of thin-film transistors (TFTs). Unlike the popular method of forming nanowires after spin-coating films, here a water-bath method to fabricate the micrometer-long nanowires in the poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) solution is introduced, which is suitable for large-area printing electronic application. The resulting transistor exhibits significantly enhanced mobility and excellent device stability. However, the threshold voltage of the device is increased, compared with the amorphous film device. The underlying mechanism of the mesoscale crystalline induced threshold voltage increase has been rarely studied. The temperature-dependent characteristics imply that the activation energy of the device with nanowires is higher than that of the amorphous one, indicating nanowires can introduce deep traps. This suggests that the charge transport is mainly limited by the deep traps at the junctions between the nanowires considering the trap density inside the nanowires is significantly low. The deep traps introduced by the junctions can increase the threshold voltage as the device needs higher voltage to fill these traps in the channel before the device is turned on. This explains why the devices with nanowires have an increased threshold voltage while their mobilities are dramatically enhanced.

Single electron transfer living radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate catalyzed by the in situ prepared Cu(0) at ambient temperature was first examined using various metallic powders, including Zn(0), Ni(0), Mg(0), and Fe(0). Importantly, the polymerization initiated with Ni(0)/EBiB/CuBr 2 /PMDETA system exhibited optimal living/controlled nature and generated polymers with polydispersity index as low as 1.04 for 75.27% conversion and controlled molecular weights close to theoretical ones. A wide of range of Cu(II) salts were also investigated as catalyst sources instead of CuBr 2 . The recycling of Ni(0) was very convenient due to its magnetic property, which enables its extensive application. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2013
