Graphene sheet/porous NiO hybrid film for supercapacitor applications

We report the preparation of a nickel-foam-supported graphene sheet/porous NiO hybrid film by the combination of electrophoretic deposition and chemical-bath deposition. The obtained graphene-sheet film of about 19 layers was used as the nanoscale substrate for the formation of a highly porous NiO film made up of interconnected NiO flakes with a thickness of 10-20 nm. The graphene sheet/porous NiO hybrid film exhibits excellent pseudocapacitive behavior with pseudocapacitances of 400 and 324 F g(-1) at 2 and 40 A g(-1), respectively, which is higher than those of the porous NiO film (279 and 188 F g(-1) at 2 and 40 A g(-1)). The enhancement of the pseudocapacitive properties is due to reinforcement of the electrochemical activity of the graphene-sheet film.

人脑初级视皮层内事件相关型视觉刺激fMRI BOLD响应特性初步研究

基于脑血氧水平依赖(BOLD)对比的功能磁共振成像（fMRI）方法是研究脑功能活动的一种重要的无损伤探测手段，BOLD的机制及它与脑神经活动关系一直是国际上十分活跃的研究领域，尤其是在实验研究方面. 视觉刺激所引起的脑的初级视皮层(V1) 的BOLD响应的时间特性已有较多的研究，但是在这些研究中，有的结论认为BOLD对视觉刺激的响应是线性的，有的结论却是相反的. 我们采用事件关联型核磁共振功能成像（ER-fMRI）方法，研究不同的短暂视觉刺激持续时间下的BOLD响应，得到了视觉刺激下的脑激活图. 同时找出了视觉刺激时间分别是1、2、3、4、5和6 s的V1区的BOLD响应曲线，并初步显示出BOLD响应与刺激持续时间的线性关系.     

Biopolymer passivation for high-performance perovskite solar cells by blade coating

Thin films of perovskite deposited from solution inevitably introduce large number of defects,which serve as recombination centers and are detrimental for solar cell performance.Although many small molecules and polymers have been delicately designed to migrate defects of perovskite films,exploiting credible passivation agents based on natural materials would offer an alternative approach.Here,an ecofriendly and cost-effective biomaterial,ploy-L-lysine(PLL),is identified to effectively passivate the defects of perovskite films prepared by blade-coating.It is found that incorporation of a small amount(2.5 mg mL^-1)of PLL significantly boosts the performance of printed devices,yielding a high efficiency of 19.45% with an increase in open-circuit voltage by up to 100 mV.Density functional theory calculations combined with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveal that the functional groups(-NH2,-COOH)of PLL effectively migrate the Pb-I antisite defects via Pb-N coordination and suppress the formation of metallic Pb in the blade-coated perovskite film.This work suggests a viable avenue to exploit passivation agents from natural materials for preparation of high-quality perovskite layers for optoelectronic applications.     

Super Hydrogen and Helium Barrier with Polyelectolyte Nanobrick Wall Thin Film

In an effort to impart light gas (i.e., H₂ and He) barrier to polymer substrates, thin films of polyethylenimine (PEI), poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), and montmorrilonite (MMT) clay are deposited via layer‐by‐layer (LbL) assembly. A five “quadlayer” (122 nm) coating deposited on 51 μm polystyrene is shown to lower both hydrogen and helium permeability three orders of magnitude against bare polystyrene, demonstrating better performance than thick‐laminated ethylene vinyl‐alcohol (EVOH) copolymer film and even metallized polyolefin/polyester film. These excellent barrier properties are attributed to a “nanobrick wall” structure. This highly flexible coating represents the first demonstration of an LbL deposited film with low hydrogen and helium permeability and is an ideal candidate for several packaging and protection applications.

     

Facile Synthesis of 4-Oxo-4H-quinolizine-2-carboxamide Derivatives

A facile synthetic method for the construction of 2-substituted-4-oxo-4H-quinolizine-based core structure has been successfully developed. The synthesis made use of a one-pot Stobbe condensation followed by cyclization starting from the commercially available 2-pyridinecarbaldehyde. The structure of the formed 4-oxo-4H-quinolizine-2-carboxylate was fully confirmed by mass spectra, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR, correlation spectrography, heteronuclear multiple bond correlation, and heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC) spectra. The ethyl carboxylate moiety was then further functionalized via direct aminolysis by a range of amines to afford the corresponding 4-oxo-4H-quinolizine-2-carboxamides 4a–i in moderate to good yields.
