A simple and efficient biomimetic synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles using a highly stereo- and regioselective [3 + 2] reaction cascade was developed and then further applied in the first total synthesis of flinderoles B and C, which proceeded in 17.2% yield over the longest linear sequence of 11 steps. 相似文献
The heterostructure of patterned CdS / CdTe thin films with back contact have been devised with electron beam lithography and fabricated using sputter deposition technique. The metallic contacts for n-CdS and p-CdTe are patterned such that both are placed at the bottom of the cell. This avoids losses due to contact shading and increases absorption in the window layer. Patterning of the device surface helps in increasing the junction area which can modulate the absorption of more number of photons due to total internal reflection. Computing the surface area between a planar and a patterned device has revealed 133% increase in the junction area. The physical and optical properties of the sputter-deposited CdS / CdTe layers are also presented. J–V characteristics of the solar cell showed the fill factor to be 25.9%, open circuit voltage to be 17 mV and short-circuit current density to be \(113.68~\hbox {A}/\hbox {m}^{2}\). The increase in surface area is directly related to the increase in the short circuit current of the photovoltaic cell, which is observed from the results of simulated model in Atlas / Silvaco. 相似文献
Demand of low-cost carbonaceous anode materials for lithium-ion batteries has led to the development of anode materials from different bio-sources. In this regard, tamarind seed (skin) was used as a precursor to prepare disordered carbon as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries. The carbon was prepared through simple hydrothermal method and was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) measurements, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. It exhibited amorphous carbon particles arranged in a fiber-like morphology with high surface area of 508 m2 g?1. The binder content was optimized for the carbon to achieve high and stable capacity. Electrochemical performance of the as-prepared carbon with optimized binder content showed a stable reversible specific capacity of 224 mAhg?1 after 300 cycles at 1 C-rate. The stable cycling performance of carbon at high current rate is explained by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and FE-SEM data of cycled electrodes. The low cost and stable specific capacity make the carbon as potential anode material for lithium-ion battery.

The current investigation deciphers aggregation pattern of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and lipid-treated AuNPs when subjected to aqueous sodium chloride solution with increasing ionic strengths (100–400 nM). AuNPs were synthesized using 0.29 mM chloroauric acid and by varying the concentrations of trisodium citrate (AuNP1 1.55 mM, AuNP2 3.1 mM) and silver nitrate (AuNP3 5.3 μM, AuNP4 10.6 μM) with characteristic LSPR peaks in the range of 525–533 nm. TEM analysis revealed AuNPs to be predominantly faceted nanocrystals with the average size of AuNP1 to be 35?±?5 nm, AuNP2 15?±?5 nm, AuNP3 30?±?5 nm, and AuNP4 30?±?5 nm and the zeta-average for AuNPs were calculated to be 31.23, 63.80, 26.08, and 28 nm respectively. Induced aggregation was observed within 10 s in all synthesized AuNPs while lipid-treated AuNP2 (AuNP2-L) was found to withstand ionic interferences at all concentration levels. However, lipid-treated AuNPs synthesized using silver nitrate and 1.55 mM trisodium citrate (AuNP3, AuNP4) showed much lower stability. The zeta potential values of lipid-treated AuNPs (AuNP1-L-1x/200, ??17.93?±?1.02 mV; AuNP2-L-1x/200, ??21.63?±?0.70; AuNP3-L-1x/200, ??14.54?±?0.90; AuNP3-L-1x/200 ??13.77?±?0.83) justified these observations. To summarize, AuNP1 and AuNP2 treated with lipid mixture 1 equals or above 1x/200 or 1x/1000 respectively showed strong resistance against ionic interferences (up to 400 mM NaCl). Use of lipid mixture 1 for obtaining highly stable AuNPs also provided functional arms of various lengths which can be used for covalent coupling.
