Alkali-metal(Li,Na, and K)-adsorbed MoSi2N4 monolayer: an investigation of its outstanding electronic,optical, and photocatalytic properties

Single-layer MoSi₂N₄,a high-quality two-dimensional material,has recently been fabricated by chemical vapor deposition.Motivated by this latest experimental work,herein,we apply first principles calculations to investigate the electronic,optical,and photocatalytic properties of alkali-metal(Li,Na,and K)-adsorbed MoSi₂N₄ monolayer.The electronic structure analysis shows that pristine MoSi₂N₄ monolayer exhibits an indirect bandgap(E_g=1.89 eV).By contrast,the bandgaps of one Li-,Na-,and K-adsorbed MoSi₂N₄ monolayer are 1.73 eV,1.61 eV,and 1.75 eV,respectively.Moreover,the work function of MoSi₂N₄ monolayer(4.80 eV)is significantly reduced after the adsorption of alkali metal atoms.The work functions of one Li-,Na-,and K-adsorbed MoSi₂N₄ monolayer are 1.50 eV,1.43 eV,and 2.03 eV,respectively.Then,optical investigations indicate that alkali metal adsorption processes substantially increase the visible light absorption range and coefficient of MoSi₂N₄ monolayer.Furthermore,based on redox potential variations after alkali metals are adsorbed,Li-and Na-adsorbed MoSi₂N₄ monolayers are more suitable for the water splitting photocatalytic process,and the Li-adsorbed case shows the highest potential application for CO₂ reduction.In conclusion,alkali-metal-adsorbed MoSi₂N₄ monolayer exhibits promising applications as novel optoelectronic devices and photocatalytic materials due to its unique physical and chemical properties.     

Multi-frequency switch and excellent slow light based on tunable triple plasmon-induced transparency in bilayer graphene metamaterial∗

We propose a novel bilayer graphene terahertz metamaterial composed of double graphene ribbons and double graphene rings to excite a dynamically adjustable triple plasma-induced transparency (PIT) effect. The coupled mode theory (CMT) is used to explain the PIT phenomenon, and the results of the CMT and the finite-difference time-domain simulation show high matching degree. By adjusting the Fermi levels of graphene, we have realized a penta-frequency asynchronous optical switch. The performance of this switch, which is mainly manifested in the maximum modulation depth (MD = 99.97%) and the minimum insertion loss (IL = 0.33 dB), is excellent. In addition, we have studied the slow-light effect of this triple-PIT and found that when the Fermi level of graphene reaches 1.2 eV, the time delay can reach 0.848 ps. Therefore, this metamaterial provides a foundation for the research of multi-frequency optical switches and excellent slow-light devices in the terahertz band.

The effect of KI on the formation of Tl2E (E=S, Se) nanorods via solvothermal route

Tl₂E (E=S or Se) nanorods were synthesized via solvothermal route with the addition of KI. The products were characterized with X-ray powder diffraction patterns and transmission electron microscope images. Their optical properties were studied by UV-vis transmittance and photoluminescence spectrum. The band gap of direct forbidden transitions was found larger than that of bulk materials, because of the blue shift caused by nanometer-scale crystalline particles due to quantum confinement effects. A possible growth mechanism is proposed.     

Global weak solutions for the Vlasov–Poisson system with a point charge

We study the dynamics of three‐dimensional Vlasov‐Poisson system in the presence of a point charge with attractive interaction. Compared to the repulsive interaction,we cannot get a priori conversation law. Nevertheless,we are able to obtain bound of kinetic energy by introducing a Lyapunov functional. Combining this result with the concept of Diperna‐Lions flow, we establish global existence of weak solutions for this system. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

采用气固法制备了磷化钼-碳纳米花(MoP-CFs),通过简单的超声自组装将C₆₀修饰在MoP-CFs表面,形成范德瓦耳斯异质结。研究其电催化析氢性能发现,C₆₀的修饰能够有效降低电催化析氢过电位。其中,10% C₆₀-MoP-CFs样品(10%为C₆₀的质量分数)表现出最佳催化活性,在酸性和碱性条件下达到10 mA·cm^-2的电流密度时,所需要的过电位分别为158和157 mV,并且具有至少20 h的电催化稳定性。C₆₀与MoP-CFs之间强电子耦合作用促进电子由C₆₀迁移到MoP-CFs表面,有助于减小电荷传输阻力,加快电催化析氢界面反应动力学过程。
