大尺寸低缺陷碳化硅(SiC)单晶体是功率器件和射频(RF)器件的重要基础材料,物理气相传输(physical vapor transport, PVT)法是目前生长大尺寸SiC单晶体的主要方法。获得大尺寸高品质晶体的核心是通过调节组分、温度、压力实现气相组分在晶体生长界面均匀定向结晶,同时尽可能减小晶体的热应力。本文对电阻加热式8英寸(1英寸=2.54 cm)碳化硅大尺寸晶体生长系统展开热场设计研究。首先建立描述碳化硅原料受热分解热质输运及其多孔结构演变、系统热输运的物理和数学模型,进而使用数值模拟方法研究加热器位置、加热器功率和辐射孔径对温度分布的影响及其规律,并优化热场结构。数值模拟结果显示,通过优化散热孔形状、保温棉的结构等设计参数,电阻加热式大尺寸晶体生长系统在晶锭厚度变化、多孔介质原料消耗的情况下均能达到较低的晶体横向温度梯度和较高的纵向温度梯度。

Unveiling the Layer‐Dependent Catalytic Activity of PtSe2 Atomic Crystals for the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Two‐dimensional (2D) PtSe₂ shows the most prominent layer‐dependent electrical properties among various 2D materials and high catalytic activity for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), and therefore, it is an ideal material for exploring the structure–activity correlations in 2D systems. Here, starting with the synthesis of single‐crystalline 2D PtSe₂ with a controlled number of layers and probing the HER catalytic activity of individual flakes in micro electrochemical cells, we investigated the layer‐dependent HER catalytic activity of 2D PtSe₂ from both theoretical and experimental perspectives. We clearly demonstrated how the number of layers affects the number of active sites, the electronic structures, and electrical properties of 2D PtSe₂ flakes and thus alters their catalytic performance for HER. Our results also highlight the importance of efficient electron transfer in achieving optimum activity for ultrathin electrocatalysts. Our studies greatly enrich our understanding of the structure–activity correlations for 2D catalysts and provide new insight for the design and synthesis of ultrathin catalysts with high activity.     

Suppressing Strong Exciton–Phonon Coupling in Blue Perovskite Nanoplatelet Solids by Binary Systems

Quasi-two-dimensional (2D) perovskites are promising candidates for light generation owing to their high radiative rates. However, strong exciton–phonon interactions caused by mechanical softening of the surface act as a bottleneck in improving their suitability for a wide range of lighting and display applications. Moreover, it is not easily available to tune the phonon interactions in bulk films. Here, we adopt bottom-up fabricated blue emissive perovskite nanoplatelets (NPLs) as model systems to elucidate and as well as tune the phonon interactions via engineering of binary NPL solids. By optimizing component domains, the phonon coupling strength can be reduced by a factor of 2 driven by the delocalization of 2D excitons in out-of-plane orientations. It shows the picosecond energy transfer originated from the Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) efficiently competes with the exciton–phonon interactions in the binary system.     

基于三维荧光光谱法和PARAFAC对多环芳烃定性定量分析

三维荧光光谱法在研究多环芳烃(PAHs)类物质的荧光信息时起到了重要作用。多环芳烃类物质具有致癌性,难降解性,多由尾气排放,垃圾焚烧产生,危害着人类健康及环境,因此人们不断探索对多环芳烃检测的方法。实验选取多环芳烃中的苊和萘作为检测物质,利用FLS920荧光光谱仪,为避免荧光光谱仪本身产生的瑞利散射影响,设置起始的发射波长滞后激发波长40 nm,设置扫描的激发波长(λex)范围为:200~370 nm,发射波长(λem)范围为:240~390 nm,对多环芳烃进行荧光扫描获取荧光数据,采用三维荧光光谱技术结合平行因子算法对混合溶液中的苊和萘进行定性定量分析。实验选用的苊和萘均购于阿拉丁试剂官网,配制浓度为10 mg·L-1的一级储备液,再将一级储备液稀释,得到苊和萘浓度为0.5,1,1.5,2,2.5,3,3.5,4和4.5 mg·L-1的二级储备液,并将苊和萘进行混合。在进行光谱分析前需要对苊和萘的光谱进行预处理,采用空白扣除法扣除拉曼散射的影响,并采用集合经验模态分解(EEMD)消除干扰噪声。实验测得苊存在两个波峰,位于λex=298 nm,λem=324/338 nm处,萘存在一个波峰,位于λex=280 nm,λem=322 nm处。选用的PARAFAC算法对组分数的的选择很敏感,因此采用核一致诊断法预估组分数,估计值2和3的核一致值都在60%以上,分别对混合样品进行了2因子和3因子的PARAFAC分解,将分解后得到的激发发射光谱数据和各组分浓度数据进行归一化处理,并绘制光谱图,与归一化处理后的真实的激发发射光谱图和各组分浓度图进行对比。同时将PARAFAC得到的混合样本的预测浓度,通过计算回收率(R)和均方根误差(RMSEP)来判定定量分析的准确度。选择2因子时,各混合样品中苊和萘拟合度为95.7%和96.7%,平均回收率分别为101.8%和98.9%,均方根误差分别为0.0187和0.0316;选择3因子时,各混合样品中苊和萘拟合度为95.3%和95.8%,平均回收率分别为97%和102.5%,均方根误差分别为0.033和0.116,由三项指标可得选用2因子进行定性定量分析的效果明显好于选用3因子。分析实验结果表明,基于三维荧光光谱法和PARAFAC算法对混合样品进行定性定量分析,能够有效的判定混合样品的类别,同时能够成功的预测出混合样品的浓度。

Nanostructured BiVO4 Derived from Bi-MOF for Enhanced Visible-light Photodegradation

BiVO4,a promising visible-light responding photocatalyst,has aroused extensive research interest because of inexpensiveness and excellent chemical stability.However,its main drawback is the poor photoinduced charge-transfer dynamics.Building nanostructures is an effective way to tackle this problem.Herein,we put forward a new method to prepare nanostructured BiVO4 from Bi-based metal-organic frameworks[Bi-MOF(CAU-17)]precursor.The as-prepared material has a rod-like morphology inherited from the Bi-MOF sacrificial template and consists of small nanoparticle as building blocks.Compared with its counterparts prepared by conventional methods,MOF-derived nanostructured BiVO4 shows better light absorption ability,narrower bandgap,and improved electrical conductivity as well as reduced recombination.Consequently,BiVO4 nanostructure demonstrates high photocatalytic activity under visible light towards the degradation of methylene blue.Methylene blue can be degraded up to 90%within 30 min with a reaction rate constant of 0.058 min-1.Moreover,the cycling stability of the catalyst is excellent to withstand unchanged degradation efficiency for at least 5 cycles.

The production of enantiomerically pure 1-phenylethanol by enzymatic kinetic resolution method using response surface methodology

As the enantiomers of 1-phenylethanol are valuable intermediates in several industries, the lipase catalyzed kinetic resolution of (R,S) -1-phenylethanol is a relevant research topic. In this study, the goal was to determine the optimum reaction parameters to produce enantiomerically pure 1-phenylethanol by lipase (Novozyme 435) catalyzed kinetic resolution using response surface methodology (RSM). Reactions were performed with 40–400 mM (R,S)-1-phenylethanol, 120–1200 mM vinyl acetate and 2–22 mg/mL biocatalyst concentrations (BC _L ), at 20–60 °C and with a stirring rate of 50–400 rpm for 5–120 min. The samples were analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a Chiralcel OB column. Optimum reaction parameters to reach 100% enantiomeric excess for the substrate ( ee _s ) were determined as follows: substrate concentration (C _s ): 240 mM, BC _L : 11 mg/mL, at 42 °C with a reaction time of 75 min. Model validation was performed using these conditions and ee _s was calculated as 100%, which indicates the predicted model was efficient and accurate. When compared to the literature, it was observed that the reaction time decreased significantly. This is an important result considering the industrial scale perspective.
