Ultrathin Mn Doped Ni-MOF Nanosheet Array for Highly Capacitive and Stable Asymmetric Supercapacitor

In this study, we demonstrate that an Mn-doped ultrathin Ni-MOF nanosheet array on nickel foam (Mn_0.1-Ni-MOF/NF) serves as a highly capacitive and stable supercapacitor positive electrode. The Mn_0.1-Ni-MOF/NF shows an areal capacity of 6.48 C cm⁻² (specific capacity C: 1178 C g⁻¹) at 2 mA cm⁻² in 6.0 m KOH, outperforming most reported MOF-based materials. More importantly, it possesses excellent cycle stability to maintain 80.6 % capacity after 5000 cycles. An asymmetric supercapacitor device utilizing Mn_0.1-Ni-MOF/NF as the positive electrode and activated carbon as the negative electrode attains a high energy density of 39.6 Wh kg⁻¹ at 143.8 Wkg⁻¹ power density with a capacitance retention of 83.6 % after 5000 cycles.     

Investigation of the interaction between protein and europium doped polymer

The interactions between bovine serum albumin (BSA) and polymer (poly (METAC-co-NIPAm-co-Eu(AA)3Phen), PMNEu) containing rare earth element (Europium) were detailedly investigated by both of experimental techniques, such as fluorescence spectroscopic analysis, zeta-potential characterization, hydrodynamic size measurements and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation, and theoretical calculations. As a result, we concluded that PMNEu could interact with BSA through electrostatic force and quench the fluorescence of BSA, which was regarded as the static quenching mechanism. In addition, the binding constant and binding sites number of BSA with PMNEu were calculated, and the distance between PMNEu and BSA was also estimated to be 1.9?nm based on Föster’s theory. Furthermore, the two fluorescence peaks of PMNEu at 594?nm and 618?nm were detected, and the density of them increased with the more BSA being added to couple with PMNEu. Additionally, The zeta-potential results confirmed the electrostatic interaction mode between BSA and PMNEu, which was concluded with the previous thermodynamic analysis. At last, the results from the hydrodynamic size measurement had a good agreement with those from the TEM observation about the structure and size variation during the complexation of PMNEu with different concentrations of BSA.     

Multiple positive solutions for Schrödinger‐Poisson system involving singularity and critical exponent

In this paper, the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions is established for Schrödinger‐Poisson system of the form where 0 ∈ Ω is a smooth bounded domain in , , and λ > 0 is a real parameter. Combining with the variational method and Nehari manifold method, two positive solutions of the system are obtained.     

In-situ cation exchange enhances room temperature phosphorescence of a family of metal-organic frameworks

The rational designability and chemical tunability of metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)are enabling tributes to efficaciously enhance their room temperature phosphorescence(RTP)performance.A family of stable anionic MOFs,[Zn₂(4,5-ImDC)₂]M₂(NKU-132,M=(CH₃)₂NH₂or(CH₂CH₃)₂NH₂),featuring significant RTP have been synthesized.By rational cation selection and in-situ replacement from dimethylammonium to diethylammonium,the phosphorescence lifetime is increased from 30.88 to126.3 ms,along with less sensitivity to air.This work provides an anti-quenching and lifetime tuning example for RTP-MOFmaterials via facile host-guest chemistry.     

枝晶生长理论中的热-动力学协同

随加工工艺趋于复杂化和极端化,基于热力学驱动力和动力学能垒相对独立的枝晶生长理论已无法精确描述多种机制共同作用的非平衡凝固过程,大大限制了该理论与工业应用的结合。首先,本文综述基于热-动力学相对独立的枝晶生长理论的发展,分析其内涵的本征热-动力学相关性,并集成于以双辊薄带连铸技术为背景的基于热-动力学相关性的枝晶生长模型。其次,定量证明了热力学驱动力和动力学能垒的相关性,通过选择不同的驱动力-能垒组合,试图在双辊薄带连铸技术中实现合金设计和工艺优化。最后,通过分析现有模型的不足,对进一步枝晶生长模型的发展以及与工艺的结合进行展望。     

Iron-Catalyzed Cleavage Reaction of Keto Acids with Aliphatic Aldehydes for the Synthesis of Ketones and Ketone Esters

The radical–radical coupling reaction is an important synthetic strategy. In this study, the iron-catalyzed radical–radical cross-coupling reaction based on the decarboxylation of keto acids and decarbonylation of aliphatic aldehydes to obtain valuable aryl ketones is reported for the first time. Remarkably, when tertiary aldehydes were used as carbonyl sources, ketone esters were selectively obtained instead of ketones. The gram-scale preparation of aryl ketone through this strategy was easily achieved by using only 3 mol % of the iron catalyst. As a proof-of-concept, the bioactive molecule flurprimidol was synthesized in two steps by using this strategy.
