In view of the present scarcity in the study of very low temperature (<−100 °C) phase change materials (PCMs) and the typical high volatility issue of these low temperature PCMs, the present work aims to develop the potential PCMs and select an appropriate anti-volatile method for cryogenic applications. In this work, cryogenic C 7 ∼C 9 n-alkanes were selected to prepare C 7 -C 8 and C 7 -C 9 binary systems, and their phase equilibrium behavior and thermophysical properties were investigated. For volatility problem, anti-volatility emulsion templates were successfully synthesized by high-energy emulsification method. The volatilization rate of the emulsion templates was characterized by combining DSC and mass transfer model, and the preparation parameters of the emulsion template with the finest anti-volatility were obtained. The results show that the eutectic compositions of C 7 -C 8 and C 7 -C 9 binary systems are 12 wt%C 8 and 10 wt%C 9 , respectively. Both eutectic systems have eutectic temperatures suitable (−99.4 °C for C 7 -C 8 , −103.1 °C for C 7 -C 9 ), satisfactory melting enthalpy (127.6 J/g for C 7 -C 8 , 129.7J/g for C 7 -C 9 ), and good phase transformation reversibility for cryogenic energy storage. Under the optimized preparation parameters (WOR=2:1, EOR=18%, HLB=11.44), the volatilization coefficient of emulsion template is reduced from the maximum of 0.01408/min to 0.00236/min, which implies that the anti-volatility of emulsion is enhanced by nearly 6 times.

Anion-exchange reactions are recognized as a vital and facile post-synthesis method to precisely manipulate the emission spectra of perovskite quantum dots (QDs). However, the anion-exchange process often induces adverse structural evolution and trap-mediated mechanisms, so mixed-halide perovskite QDs suffer inefficient anion exchange and poor spectra-stability issues, which limits access to high-quality primary color perovskite QDs for display applications. Here we report an Al3+ bonding-doping synergistic strategy for manufacturing stable mixed Br/Cl deep-blue perovskite QDs. By doping Al3+ into perovskite QDs, highly-efficient Cl− anion exchange and a large-range blue shift of the PL spectrum (∼62 nm with only 0.1 mmol of Cl feed) can be easily achieved. Notably, the Al3+-mediated deep-blue emission sample exhibits superior stability against moisture and electric fields. It also shows an elevated valence band maximum level. Based on the anion-exchanged QDs, a spectrum-stable deep-blue QLED with an EQE of 1.38% at 463 nm is achieved. Our findings demonstrate a feasible and promising strategy for developing high-performance deep-blue perovskite materials and optoelectronic devices.

Interactive display devices integrating multiple functions have become a development trend of display technology. The excellent luminescence properties of perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) make it an ideal luminescent material for the next generation of wide-color gamut displays. Here we design and fabricate dual-function light-sensing/displaying light-emitting devices based on PQDs. The devices can display information as an output port, and simultaneously sense outside light signals as an input port and modulate the display information in a non-contact mode. The dual functions were attributed to the device designs: (1) the hole transport layer in the devices also acts as the light-sensing layer to absorb outside light signals; (2) the introduced hole trapping layer interface can trap holes originating from the light-sensing layer, and thus tune the charge transport properties and the light-emitting intensities. The sensing and display behavior of the device can be further modulated by light signals with different time and space information. This fusion of sensing and display functions has broad prospects in non-contact interactive screens and communication ports.

Adsorption desulfurization is a very effective method to remove thiophenic compounds from fuels. The metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as a new type of desulfurization adsorbents because of their porous nature and large specific surface area. In this study, Cu 2+ was covalently introduced into the UiO-66 framework at the defective sites by the solvothermal method. Further, the π-complexation adsorbent UiO-66-Cu(I) containing Cu + for adsorption desulfurization was synthesized by the methanol vapor-induced reduction. The adsorption performance was tested for the removal of thiophene from the model fuels with different sulfur concentrations. In comparison with the pristine UiO-66, the adsorbent UiO-66-Cu(I) has a higher adsorption capacity for thiophene, reaching 14.8 mg S/g. The competitive adsorption results indicated that UiO-66-Cu(I) has good selectivity for thiophene in the presence of aromatic compounds. From the recycling experiments, this adsorption still has the 86 % of the initial capacity after four cycles, indicating that the adsorbent has a good recycling performance.

This study presents the first-ever synthesis of samarium-doped indium vanadate nanosheets (IVONSs:Sm) via microemulsion-mediated solvothermal method. The nanosheets were subsequently utilized as a nano-matrix in laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS). It was discovered that the as-synthesized IVONSs:Sm possessed the following advantages: improved mass spectrometry signal, minimal matrix-related background, and exceptional stability in negative-ion mode. These qualities overcame the limitations of conventional matrices and enabled the sensitive detection of small biomolecules such as fatty acids. The negative-ion LDI mechanism of IVONSs:Sm was examined through the implementation of density functional theory simulation. Using IVONSs:Sm-assisted LDI-MS, fingerprint recognitions based on morphology and chemical profiles of endogenous/exogenous compounds were also achieved. Notably, crucial characteristics such as the age of an individual’s fingerprints and their physical state could be assessed through the longitudinal monitoring of particular biomolecules (e.g., ascorbic acid, fatty acid) or the specific biomarker bilirubin glucuronide. Critical information pertinent to the identification of an individual would thus be facilitated by the analysis of the compounds underlying the fingerprint patterns. Graphical Abstract

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.

Perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) have gained significant attention due to their exceptional optical and electronic properties, rendering them promising materials for various optoelectronic applications, such as single-junction solar cells because of the multiple exciton generation effects. To improve the electrical properties of CsPbI3 PQDs, ligand engineering was explored by introducing short-chain ligands to exchange the original long-chain ligands on the PQD surface during the purification process. However, the short-chain ligands suffer from low solubility in the anti-solvent, resulting in insufficient ligand exchange. To address this issue, we developed an in-situ ligand exchange (ILE) strategy to promote the replacement of long-chain ligands with short-chain ones, leading to improved surface chemistry. In this work, 4-methoxyphenethylammonium iodide (CH3O-PEAI) was demonstrated as the short-chain ligand in the ILE strategy, thereby modifying halide vacancy trap states, and promoting carrier transportation and extraction. As a result, the ILE-CsPbI3-based solar cells achieved a higher power conversion efficiency of 14.4% with a high open circuit voltage (VOC) of 1.23 V and exceptional long-term durability due to higher hydrophobicity.

Robust membrane materials with high efficiency have attracted extensive attention in oil/water separation. In this work, carbon particles via candle combustion were firstly adsorbed on the surface of stainless steel meshes (SSMs), which formed a thin hydrophobic coating, and a rough structure was then constructed through chemical vapor deposition and high temperature calcination, with the resultant SSM surface wrapped with uniform silica coating possessing the characteristic of superoleophobicity underwater. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) were used to characterize the modified SSMs. The prepared SSMs were superhydrophilic in air, and they had superoleophobicity underwater (157.4°). The separation efficiency of five oil/water mixtures was above 98.8%, and the separation flux was 46,300 L·m−2·h−1. After it was immersed in 1 mol/L NaOH, 1 mol/L HCl and 3.5 wt% NaCl for 24 h, respectively, the efficiency was still above 97.3%. Further immersion in the solution of dopamine and octadecylamine resulted in the transformation of superhydrophililc/superoleophobicity-underwater SSMs to superhydrophobic SSMs, and the resultant SSMs with reverse surface wettability was also used for the oil/water separation with good separation efficiency and separation flux.Keywords:stainless steel mesh;underwater superoleophobicity;chemical vapor deposition;superhydrophobicity;oil/water separation

An ultrathin amine-rich selective layer comprising the fixed-site carrier from polyvinylamine (PVAm) and the mobile carrier with an amino acid salt was successfully coated on top of the polysulfone (PSf) substrate for enhanced CO2-facilitated transport. PVAm with an ultrahigh molecular weight was synthesized via the inverse emulsion polymerization method, which allows the excellent dissipation of the reaction heat and reduces gel formation drastically. Several batches of PVAm with different hydrolysis degrees and molecular weights were successfully synthesized. The mobile carriers of 2-(1-piperazinyl)ethylamine salts of sarcosine (PZEA-Sar) were synthesized and introduced to strengthen the facilitated transport contribution, while cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were incorporated into the polymer matrix to enhance the mechanical strength and also increase the free volume of the polymer matrix. The amine-rich composite membranes made from 0.5 wt % PVAm/PZEA-Sar-0.5 wt % CNC with a high-molecular-weight PVAm of 4.4 MDa at a degree of hydrolysis (DOH) of 78% demonstrate a significantly enhanced CO2 permeance of 160 GPU with a good CO2/N2 selectivity of 48 at 35 °C and a feed pressure of 2 bar. The developed amine-rich facilitated transport membrane shows excellent potential for industrial carbon capture.

In this work, liquid densities of n -octane, ethylcyclohexane and their binary mixtures {( x ) n -octane) + (1 − x ) ethylcyclohexane} with mole fraction x = (0.200, 0.400, 0.600, 0.800) are reported. The density measurements were performed with a high-pressure vibrating-tube densimeter at temperatures from (283 to 363) K and pressures up to 60 MPa. The combined expanded uncertainties (0.95 level of confidence, k = 2) are estimated to be 16 mK for temperature, 0.062 MPa for pressure, and up to 0.6 kg/m 3 for density. The experimental densities were correlated using the modified Tait equation. The average absolute percentage deviations of measurement results from the modified Tait equation correlations of n -octane, ethylcyclohexane and their binary mixtures {( x ) n -octane) + (1 − x ) ethylcyclohexane} are all lower than 0.1%. The isothermal compressibility and isobaric expansivity have also been derived from the experimental densities.

Top-emitting (TE) quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) can exhibit higher light outcoupling efficiency (OCE) compared to bottom-emitting (BE) QLEDs due to the eliminated substrate mode and enhanced microcavity effect. In this study, TE QLEDs with an OCE of over 45% are realized by simultaneously optimizing the thicknesses of both indium-zinc-oxide (IZO) phase tuning layers and IZO top transparent electrodes. To reduce the resistance, the IZO top electrodes are equipped with an auxiliary metal electrode. Consequently, the red QLEDs demonstrate a high external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 38.2%. Furthermore, by applying a scattering layer on the IZO top electrode, the red QLEDs demonstrate record-breaking efficiencies of EQE 44.5%, power efficiency 92.2 lm W −1 , and current efficiency 93.7 cd A −1 . The proposed device architecture and optimization strategy contribute to a new design scheme for the preparation of highly efficient QLEDs for displays and lighting applications.

Membrane separation is a very promising and economical method for gravitational oil/water separation and the collection of oil spills. Both superhydrophilicity/underwater superhydrophobicity (SHL&UWSOB) and superhydrophobicity/superlipophilicity (SHB&SOL) are suitable materials for the solution. In this work, an ingenious design strategy of “two birds with one stone” to modify Ni foams (NFs) was developed, in which SHL&UWSOB was initially fabricated by the in situ growth of a bimetallic Fe/Ni-MOF on an NF surface by solvothermal synthesis. Further modification based on the resultant SHL&UWSOB-NF led to the construction of a SHB&SOL surface by simple immersion of stearic acid. The micro/nano structure beneficial to underwater superoleophobicity was tailored by optimizing the solvothermal reaction time in the range of 10–24 h. The results showed that SHL&UWSOB-NF was obtained with a high oil contact angle (OCA) of 165.9° under water when the time of the solvothermal reaction was kept at about 18 h. Likewise, the further modified NF exhibited an obvious SHB&SOL property with a water contact angle (WCA) of 156.3° and a water rolling angle (SCA) of 9°. The light oil (n-hexane) floating on the water's surface and heavy oil of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) at the bottom of the water, as well as the mini-separation of oil/water, demonstrated its facile and versatile application as a separation medium. The strategy may offer new approaches for the fabrication of superwetting/superantiwetting separation materials for oil/water separation and oil collection.
