Surface charging behaviors of electrocatalytic interfaces with partially charged chemisorbates

The surface charge is a key concept in electrochemistry. Mathematically, the surface charge is obtained from a spatial integration of the volume charge along a particular direction. Ambiguities thus arise in choosing the starting and ending points of the integration. As for electrocatalytic interfaces, the presence of chemisorbates further complicates the situation. In this minireview, I adopt a definition of the surface charge within a continuum picture of the electric double layer. I will introduce surface charging behaviors of firstly ordinary electrochemical interfaces and then electrocatalytic interfaces featuring partially charged chemisorbates. Particularly, the origin of nonmonotonic surface charging behaviors of electrocatalytic interfaces is explained using a primitive model. Finally, a brief account of previous studies on the nonmonotonic surface charging behavior is presented, as a subline of the spectacular history of electric double layer.

基于无人机探测大柴旦地区近地层气溶胶特征

通过改装多旋翼无人机（UAV）和搭载各类载荷以及联合地基观测设备对大柴旦地区大气、环境以及气溶胶参数进行测量。利用获得的数据资料，对该地区近地层气溶胶粒子数浓度（即单位体积空气中气溶胶粒子的数目）、消光系数以及气象要素等特征进行了分析。结果表明，在大柴旦地区，近地层气溶胶粒子数浓度日变化显著，呈现双峰形态，气溶胶粒子数浓度的变化范围为75～220 cm^-3,消光系数的变化范围为0.004～0.038 km^-1;当风速小于6 m/s时，气溶胶粒子数浓度与风速呈负相关关系；当风速大于6 m/s时，二者呈正相关关系；相对湿度对气溶胶粒子的影响较小，这可能是由于该地区以沙尘型气溶胶为主，吸湿性较弱。本研究基于多旋翼无人机探测平台，可以有效地获得近地层精细化大气、环境结构，有助于研究人员了解该地区气溶胶的结构、变化特征以及建立气溶胶模式，同时也为气溶胶及大气环境参数探测方法提供了技术支撑及思路拓展。
