等浓度的氯化铵和硫酸铵溶液哪个pH高

有中学化学参考资料题:0.10 mol/L的NH4Cl和(NH4)2SO4溶液哪个pH值高?这似乎是个中学生可做的简单题目,仔细考虑不是如此.如果简单地认为盐酸和硫酸都是强酸,而硫酸是二元酸,硫酸铵溶液中铵盐浓度为0.20 mol/L,那么NH4Cl溶液pH高,那是不妥的.硫酸是二元酸,第一个氢离子能完全电离,第二个氢离子部分电离,如此考虑情况怎么样呢?是不是答案发生变化?这要通过计算来说明.     

Enhanced efficiency and stability in Sn-based perovskite solar cells with secondary crystallization growth

The conversion efficiencies reported for Tin(Sn)halide-based perovskite solar cells(PSCs)fall a large gap behind those of lead halide-based PSCs,mainly because of poor film quality of the former.Here we report an efficient strategy based on a simple secondary crystallization growth(SCG)technique to improve film quality for tin halide-based PSCs by applying a series of functional amine chlorides on the perovskite surface.They were discovered to enhance the film crystallinity and suppress the oxidation of Sn²⁺remarkably,hence reduce trap state density and non-irradiative recombination in the absorber films.Furthermore,the SCG film holds the band levels matching better with carrier transport layers and herein favoring charge extraction at the device interfaces.Consequently,a champion device efficiency of 8.07% was achieved alo ng with significant enhancements in VOC and JSC,in contrast to 5.35% of the control device value.Moreover,the SCG film-based devices also exhibit superior stability comparing with the control one.This work explicitly paves a novel and general strategy for developing high performance lead-free PSCs.     

Energy level engineering of charge selective contact and halide perovskite by modulating band offset:Mechanistic insights

Mixed cation and anion based perovskites solar cells exhibited enhanced stability under outdoor conditions,however,it yielded limited power conversion efficiency when TiO₂ and Spiro-OMeTAD were employed as electron and hole transport layer(ETL/HTL)respectively.The inevitable interfacial recombination of charge carriers at ETL/perovskite and perovskite/HTL interface diminished the efficiency in planar(n-i-p)perovskite solar cells.By employing computational approach for uni-dimensional device simulator,the effect of band offset on charge recombination at both interfaces was investigated.We noted that it acquired cliff structure when the conduction band minimum of the ETL was lower than that of the perovskite,and thus maximized interfacial recombination.However,if the conduction band minimum of ETL is higher than perovskite,a spike structure is formed,which improve the performance of solar cell.An optimum value of conduction band offset allows to reach performance of 25.21%,with an open circuit voltage(VOC)of 1231 mV,a current density JSC of 24.57 mA/cm² and a fill factor of 83.28%.Additionally,we found that beyond the optimum offset value,large spike structure could decrease the performance.With an optimized energy level of Spiro-OMeTAD and the thickness of mixed-perovskite layer performance of 26.56% can be attained.Our results demonstrate a detailed understanding about the energy level tuning between the charge selective layers and perovskite and how the improvement in PV performance can be achieved by adjusting the energy level offset.

A new strategy to access Co/N co-doped carbon nanotubes as oxygen reduction reaction catalysts

Carbon nanotubes(CNTs),as one-dimensional nanomaterials,show great potential in energy conversion and storage due to their efficient electrical conductivity and mass transfer.However,the security risks,time-consuming and high cost of the preparation process hinder its further application.Here,we develop that a negative pressure rather than a following gas environment can promote the generation of cobalt and nitrogen co-doped CNTs(Co/N-CNTs) by using cobalt zeolitic imidazolate framework(ZIF-67) as a precursor,in which the negative pressure plays a key role in adjusting the size of cobalt nanoparticles and stimulating the rearragement of carbon atoms for forming CNTs.Importantly,the obtained Co/N-CNTs,with high content of pyridinic nitrogen and abundant graphitized structure,exhibit superior catalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction(ORR) with half-wave potential(E_1/2) of 0.85 V and durability in terms of the minimum current loss(2%) after the 30,000 s test.Our development provides a new pathway for large-scale and cost-effective preparation of metal-doped CNTs for various applications.     

Stabilizing High-voltage Cathode Materials for Next-generation Li-ion Batteries

The pressing demand for high-energy/power lithium-ion batteries requires the deployment of cathode materials with higher capacity and output voltage.Despite more than ten years of research,high-voltage cathode mate-rials,such as high-voltage layered oxides,spinel LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4,and high-voltage polyanionic compounds still cannot be commercially viable due to the instabilities of standard electrolytes,cathode materials,and cathode electrolyte interphases under high-voltage operation.This paper summarizes the recent advances in addressing the surface and interface issues haunting the application of high-voltage cathode materials.The understanding of the limitations and advantages of different modification protocols will direct the future endeavours on advancing high-energy/power lithium-ion batteries.     

Suppressing trap states and energy loss by optimizing vertical phase distribution through ternary strategy in organic solar cells

Suppressing the trap-state density and the energy loss via ternary strategy was demonstrated.Favorable vertical phase distribution with donors(acceptors)accumulated(depleted)at the interface of active layer and charge extraction layer can be obtained by introducing appropriate amount of polymer acceptor N2200 into the systems of PBDB-T:IT-M and PBDB-TF:Y6.In addition,N2200 is gradiently distributed in the vertical direction in the ternary blend film.Various measurements were carried out to study the effects of N2200 on the binary systems.It was found that the optimized morphology especially in vertical direction can significantly decrease the trap state density of the binary blend films,which is beneficial for the charge transport and collection.All these features enable an obvious decrease in charge recombination in both PBDB-T:IT-M and PBDB-TF:Y6 based organic solar cells(OSCs),and power conversion efficiencies(PCEs)of 12.5%and 16.42%were obtained for the ternary OSCs,respectively.This work indicates that it is an effective method to suppress the trap state density and thus improve the device performance through ternary strategy.     

Conformational Properties of Comb-shaped Polyelectrolytes with Negatively Charged Backbone and Neutral Side Chains Studied by a Generic Coarse-grained Bead-and-Spring Model

A generic coarse-grained bead-and-spring model,mapped onto comb-shaped polycarboxylate-based(PCE)superplasticizers,is developed and studied by Langevin molecular dynamics simulations with implicit solvent and explicit counterions.The agreement on the radius of gyration of the PCEs with experiments shows that our model can be useful in studying the equilibrium sizes of PCEs in solution.The effects of ionic strength,side-chain number,and side-chain length on the conformational behavior of PCEs in solution are explored.Single-chain equilibrium properties,including the radius of gyration,end-to-end distance and persistenee length of the polymer backbone,shape-asphericity parameter,and the mean span dimension,are determined.It is found that with the increase of ionic strength,the equilibrium sizes of the polymers decrease only slightly,and a linear dependenew of the persistence length of backbone on the Debye screening length is found,in good agreement with the theory developed by Dobrynin.Increasing side-chain numbers and/or side-chain lengths increases not only the equilibrium sizes(radius of gyration and mean span)of the polymer as a whole,but also the persistence length of the backbone due to excluded volume interactions.     

Three-dimensionalization via control of laser-structuring parameters for high energy and high power lithium-ion battery under various operating conditions

Laser-structuring is an effective method to promote ion diffusion and improve the performance of lithium-ion battery(LIB)electrodes.In this work,the effects of laser structuring parameters(groove pitch and depth)on the fundamental characteristics of LIB electrode,such as interfacial area,internal resistances,material loss and electrochemical performance,are investigated,LiNi_0.5Co_0.2Mn_0.3O₂ cathodes were structured by a femtosecond laser by varying groove depth and pitch,which resulted in a material loss of 5%-14%and an increase of 140%-260%in the in terfacial area between electrode surface and electrolyte.It is shown that the importance of groove depth and pitch on the electrochemical performance(specific capacity and areal discharge capacity)of laser-structured electrode varies with current rates.Groove pitch is more im porta nt at low current rate but groove depth is at high curre nt rate.From the mapping of lithium concentration within the electrodes of varying groove depth and pitch by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy,it is verified that the groove functions as a diffusion path for lithium ions.The ionic,electronic,and charge transfer resistances measured with symmetric and half cells showed that these internal resistances are differently affected by laser structuring parameters and the changes in porosity,ionic diffusion and electronic pathways.It is demonstrated that the laser structuring parameters for maximum electrode performance and minimum capacity loss should be determined in consideration of the main operating conditions of LIBs.     

Mesh-like vertical structures enable both high areal capacity and excellent rate capability

In order to balance electrochemical kinetics with loading level for achieving efficient energy storage with high areal capacity and good rate capability simultaneously for wearable electronics,herein,2 D meshlike vertical structures(NiCo_2 S_4@Ni(OH)_2) with a high mass loading of 2.17 mg cm^-2 and combined merits of both 1 D nanowires and 2 D nanosheets are designed for fabricating flexible hybrid supercapacitors.Particularly,the seamlessly interconnected NiCo_2 S_4 core not only provides high capacity of 287.5 μAh cm^-2 but also functions as conductive skeleton for fast electron transport;Ni(OH)_2 sheath occupying the voids in NiCo_2 S_4 meshes contributes extra capacity of 248.4 μAh cm^-2;the holey features guarantee rapid ion diffusion along and across NiCO_2 S_4@Ni(OH)_2 meshes.The resultant flexible electrode exhibits a high areal capacity of 535.9 μAh cm^-2(246.9 mAh g^-1) at 3 mA cm^-2 and outstanding rate performance with 84.7% retention at 30 mA cm^-2,suggesting efficient utilization of both NiCo_2 S_4 and Ni(OH)_2 with specific capacities approaching to their theoretical values.The flexible solid-state hybrid device based on NiCo_2 S_4@Ni(OH)_2 cathode and Fe_2 O_3 anode delivers a high energy density of 315 μWh cm^-2 at the power density of 2.14 mW cm^-2 with excellent electrochemical cycling stability.     

Electric field effects on water clusters (n = 3-5): systematic ab initio study of structures, energetics, and transition states

The structures, energetics, and transition states of water clusters (trimer to pentamer, n = 3-5) are investigated as a function of electric field by using ab initio calculations. With an increasing strength of the field, the most stable cyclic structures of trimer, tetramer, and pentamer open up to align their dipole moments along the direction of the field. For the lower strength (below 0.3 V/angstroms) of the electric field, the dipole moment of each water monomer is along the same direction with the field, while it retains the cyclic structure. For the higher strength of the field, to have a higher dipole moment for the cluster along the field direction, each cyclic structure opens up to form a linear chain or "water wire." We have investigated the transition state structures between the cyclic and linear forms for the field strengths of 0.3-0.4 V/angstroms where both cyclic and linear forms are energetically comparable.     

Effect of External Electric Field on H‐Bonding and π‐Stacking Interactions in Guanine Aggregates

The structure and electronic properties of guanine oligomers and π stacks of guanine quartets (G‐quartets) with circulene are investigated under an external field through first‐principles calculations. An electric field induces nonplanarity in the guanine aggregates and also leads to an increase in the H‐bond distances. The calculations reveal that the binding energy of the circulenes with G‐quartets increases on application of an electric field along the stacking direction. The HOMO–LUMO gap decreases substantially under the influence of an external field. The contribution of a simple dipole–dipole interaction to the stability of the stacked system is also analyzed. The electric field along the perpendicular axis increases the dipole moments of the guanine dimer, trimer, and quartet. Such an increase in the dipole moment facilitates stacking with circulenes. The stability of G‐quartet–circulene π stacks depends on the phase of the dipole moment (in‐phase or out‐of‐phase) induced by an external electric field. The stability of stacks of bowl‐shaped circulenes with G‐quartets depends on the direction of the applied field.     

Environmental effects on hydrogen bonded systems: A quantum chemical study of proton relay model systems

In this paper an application of a reaction field theory of solvent effects has been made to study proton transfer mechanisms in hydrogen bonded systems coupled to an environment. The latter is simulated with reaction fields having variable strength and direction (defined with respect to the supermolecule's total dipole moment direction), together with superposed uniform external electric fields. Changes in proton potential curves and some other properties of a model water dimer and a water trimer are reported. The results are discussed in relation to relevant phenomena in biology and biochemistry, namely proton relay systems in enzymatic catalysis.     

外部电场下水分子间静电相互作用的分子动力学研究

本文利用分子动力学模拟探讨了不同外电场下,液态水的分子间作用及分子排布的变化. 在不同外电场下,O…O原子间的径向分布函数差别很小,但是单个水分子的偶极矩的取向变化却很大. 当外电场为0时,单个水分子偶极取向的范围很宽（30-150度）. 与此同时,本文给出了局域诱导电场随着位置的变化关系图. 当外加电场增强时,局域的诱导电场强度也随之增加. 由于电场下偶极矩有序性的增加,局域诱导的静电相互作用能显著增加. 计算结果表明,相对介电常数随着电场强度的增加而呈现指数衰减的变化形式. 这一变化趋势可以用来理解不同电化学环境下,静电相互作用和局域诱导电场的变化.     

Polarized basis sets and the calculation of infrared intensities from nuclear electric shielding tensors

The idea of the basis set polarization which follows from the known dependence of basis set functions on the perturbation strength is applied to the calculation of the dipole moment derivatives with respect to nuclear displacements. The differentiation of the dipole moment function is replaced by the straightforward evaluation of derivatives of the intramolecular electric field with respect to the external electric field strength. The method and its efficiency are illustrated by a series of calculations of the dipole moment derivatives for the water molecule. Already a polarized basis set of 26 CGTO's derived from the minimal CGTO basis set provides fairly reasonable results.     

Vibrational frequencies and geometries for the open HF trimer

Non-cyclic structures of the HF trimer are investigated using self-consistent-field (SCF) wavefunctions constructed from basis sets of double-zeta (DZ) and double-zeta plus polarization (DZ+P) quality. Cis and trans planar stationary points for the open trimer were found with the DZ SCF method, corresponding to a minimum and a transition state, respectively. With the DZP SCF method the trans structure is again a transition state but we were unable to locate an analogous cis stationary point. Thus we find little evidence for the existence of any conformational minimum of the HF trimer other than the cyclic structure. Vibrational frequencies and infrared intensities were predicted from analytic energy and dipole moment derivatives at the SCF level of theory. Predicted values for the vibrational frequency shifts relative to the HF monomer are also given and compared with experimental results.     

强外电场作用下二甲基硅酮的分子结构和激发态

The ground states of dimethyl siloxane under different intense electric fields ranging from - 0. 04 to 0. 04 a. u. are optimized using density functional theory DFT / B3P86 at 6-311 ++ G（d,p）level. The excitation energies and oscillator strengths under the same intense applied electric fields are calculated employing the revised hybrid CIS-DFT method. The result shows that the electronic state,molecular geometry,total energy,dipole moment and excitation energy are strongly dependent on the field strength and behave asymmetry to the direction of the applied electric field. As the electric field changes from - 0. 04 to 0. 04 a. u. ,the bond length of Si-O increases whereas the bond length of Si-C decreases because of the charge transfer induced by the applied electric field. The dipole moment of the ground state decreases linearly with the applied field strength. However,the dipole moment of molecule changes from positive to negative as the inverse electric field increase to - 0. 03 a. u. Further increase of the inverse electric field results in an increase of the total energy of the molecule. The dependence of the calculated excitation energies on the applied electric field strength is fitting well to the relationship proposed by Grozema. The excitation energies of the first five excited states of dimethyl siloxane decrease as the applied electric filed increases because the energy gap between the HOMO and LUMO become close with the field,which shows that the molecule is easy to be excited under electric field and hence can be easily dissociated.     

Key role of the polarization anisotropy of water in modeling classical polarizable force fields

We have evaluated the extent to which classical polarizable force fields, based either on the chemical potential equalization principle or on distributed polarizabilities in the framework of the Sum of Interactions Between Fragments Ab initio computed (SIBFA), can reproduce the ab initio polarization energy and the dipole moment of three distinct water oligomers: bifurcated chains, transverse hydrogen-bonded chains, and longitudinal hydrogen-bonded chains of helical shape. To analyze the many-body polarization effect, chains of different size, i.e., from 2 to 12 water monomers, have been considered. Although the dipole moment is a well-defined quantity in both classical polarizable models and quantum mechanical methods, polarization energy can be defined unequivocally only in the former type of approaches. In this study we have used the Kitaura-Morokuma (KM) procedure. Although the KM approach is on the one hand known to overestimate the polarization energy for strongly interacting molecules, on the other hand it can account for the many-body polarization effectively, whereas some other procedures do not. Our data show that, if off-centered lone pair polarizabilities are explicitly represented, classical polarizable force fields can afford a close agreement with the ab initio results, both in terms of polarization energy and in terms of dipole moment.     

Non-Gaussian statistics of electrostatic fluctuations of hydration shells

This paper aims to understand the statistics of the electric field produced by water interfacing a non-polar solute of nanometer dimension. We study, by numerical simulations, the interface between SPC/E water and a Kihara solute, which is a hard-sphere core with a Lennard-Jones layer at its surface. The distribution of the interfacial electric field is monitored as a function of the magnitude of a point dipole placed close to the solute-water interface. The free energy surface as a function of the electric field projected on the dipole direction shows a cross-over with increasing dipole magnitude. While it is a single-well harmonic function at low dipole values, it becomes a double-well surface at intermediate dipole moment magnitudes, transforming into a single-well surface again, with a non-zero minimum position, at still higher dipoles. This transformation, reminiscent of a discontinuous phase transition in bulk materials, has a broad intermediate region where the interfacial waters fluctuate between the two minima. This region is characterized by intense field fluctuations, with non-Gaussian statistics and variance far exceeding expectations from the linear-response approximation. The excited state of the surface water is found to be lifted above the ground state by the energy required to break approximately two hydrogen bonds. This state is pulled down in energy by the external electric field of the solute dipole, making it readily accessible to thermal excitations. The excited state is a surface defect in the hydrogen-bond network, creating a stress in the nearby network, but otherwise relatively localized in the region closest to the solute dipole.
