Characterizing the Role of Iodine Doping in Improving Photovoltaic Performance of Dye‐Sensitized Hierarchically Structured ZnO Solar Cells

We report two novel types of hierarchically structured iodine‐doped ZnO (I? ZnO)‐based dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSCs) using indoline D205 and the ruthenium complex N719 as sensitizers. It was found that iodine doping boosts the efficiencies of D205 I? ZnO and N719 I? ZnO DSCs with an enhancement of 20.3 and 17.9 %, respectively, compared to the undoped versions. Transient absorption spectra demonstrated that iodine doping impels an increase in the decay time of I? ZnO, favoring enhanced exciton life. Mott–Schottky analysis results indicated a negative shift of the flat‐band potential (V_fb) of ZnO, caused by iodine doping, and this shift correlated with the enhancement of the open circuit voltage (V_oc). To reveal the effect of iodine doping on the effective separation of e^?‐h⁺ pairs which is responsible for cell efficiency, direct visualization of light‐induced changes in the surface potential between I? ZnO particles and dye molecules were traced by Kelvin probe force microscopy. We found that potential changes of iodine‐doped ZnO films by irradiation were above one hundred millivolts and thus significantly greater. In order to correlate enhanced cell performance with iodine doping, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, incident‐photon‐current efficiency, and cyclic voltammetry investigations on I? ZnO cells were carried out. The results revealed several favorable features of I? ZnO cells, that is, longer electron lifetime, lower charge‐transfer resistance, stronger peak current, and extended visible light harvest, all of which serve to promote cell performance.     

锡掺杂Bi2O3可见光响应光催化剂的制备及性能

以硝酸铋和四氯化锡为原料,采用浸渍法制备了纯Bi2O3和Sn掺杂Bi2O3光催化剂。利用X射线光电子能谱、X射线荧光光谱、X射线衍射、扫描电子显微镜、紫外-可见吸收光谱和光致发光光谱对样品进行了表征。在可见光下,利用2,4-二氯苯酚水溶液的光催化降解作为探针反应,考察了样品的可见光催化活性。结果表明,浸渍法能较好地实现Sn的掺杂,催化剂中掺杂剂Sn的价态为+4价,以锡的氧化物形式存在于Bi2O3晶格间隙或晶粒表面。并且掺杂适量的Sn,可有效抑制Bi2O3晶相由四方相向单斜相的转变,拓宽了Bi2O3的可见光响应范围,有效阻止了光生电子和空穴的复合,从而提高了Bi2O3的可见光催化活性。当Sn的掺杂量为2%时(物质的量的分数),Bi2O3具有最好的可见光催化活性。

Enantiomeric separations of four basic drugs containing N-alkyl groups by a RP-HPLC system using SBE-β-CD as chiral mobile phase additive

The chiral separations of four pharmaceutical racemates which contain N-alkyl groups were satisfactorily resolved using SBE-β-CD as a chiral mobile phase additive(CMPA)in a RP-HPLC system(the resolution is 2.701 for ondansetron hydrochloride,1.996 for sulpiride,1.293 for clenbuterol hydrochloride and 0.816 for omeprazole).In addition,the effects of different parameters such as CD type and CD concentration were investigated.The separation mechanism arises through the combination of several potential interactions,including electrostatic interactions as well as hydrogen bonding interactions and hydrophobic inclusion interactions,which allow for the SBE-β-CD–drug complexation with strong stereoselectivity and stability.The resolution also relates to the number and location of N atoms in the enantiomers.This method will be applicable to the isolation of various types of biologically important enantiomers containing N-alkyl groups.
