Functionalization of Pyrene To Prepare Luminescent Materials—Typical Examples of Synthetic Methodology

Pyrene‐based π‐conjugated materials are considered to be an ideal organic electro‐luminescence material for application in semiconductor devices, such as organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic field‐effect transistors (OFETs) and organic photovoltaics (OPVs), and so forth. However, the great drawback of employing pyrene as an organic luminescence material is the formation of excimer emission, which quenches the efficiency at high concentration or in the solid‐state. Thus, in order to obtain highly efficient optical devices, scientists have devoted much effort to tuning the structure of pyrene derivatives in order to realize exploitable properties by employing two strategies, 1) introducing a variety of moieties at the pyrene core, and 2) exploring effective and convenient synthetic strategies to functionalize the pyrene core. Over the past decades, our group has mainly focused on synthetic methodologies for functionalization of the pyrene core; we have found that formylation/acetylation or bromination of pyrene can selectly lead to functionalization at K‐region by Lewis acid catalysis. Herein, this Minireview highlights the direct synthetic approaches (such as formylation, bromination, oxidation, and de‐tert‐butylation reactions, etc.) to functionalize the pyrene in order to advance research on luminescent materials for organic electronic applications. Further, this article demonstrates that the future direction of pyrene chemistry is asymmetric functionalization of pyrene for organic semiconductor applications and highlights some of the classical asymmetric pyrenes, as well as the latest breakthroughs. In addition, the photophysical properties of pyrene‐based molecules are briefly reviewed. To give a current overview of the development of pyrene chemistry, the review selectively covers some of the latest reports and concepts from the period covering late 2011 to the present day.     

Monolayer Co3O4 Inverse Opals as Multifunctional Sensors for Volatile Organic Compounds

Monolayers of periodic porous Co₃O₄ inverse opal (IO) thin films for gas‐sensor applications were prepared by transferring cobalt‐solution‐dipped polystyrene (PS) monolayers onto sensor substrates and subsequent removal of the PS template by heat treatment. Monolayer Co₃O₄ IO thin films having periodic pores (d≈500 nm) showed a high response of 112.9 to 5 ppm C₂H₅OH at 200 °C with low cross‐responses to other interfering gases. Moreover, the selective detection of xylene and methyl benzenes (xylene+toluene) could be achieved simply by tuning the sensor temperature to 250 and 275 °C, respectively, so that multiple gases can be detected with a single chemiresistor. Unprecedentedly high ethanol response and temperature‐modulated control of selectivity with respect to ethanol, xylene, and methyl benzenes were attributed to the highly chemiresistive IO nanoarchitecture and to the tuned catalytic promotion of different gas‐sensing reactions, respectively. These well‐ordered porous nanostructures could have potential in the field of high‐performance gas sensors based on p‐type oxide semiconductors.     

Bovine Serum Albumin Loaded Solid Lipid Nanoparticles Prepared by Double Emulsion Method

Solid lipid nanoparticles loaded with bovine serum albumin(BSA) were prepared by a double emulsion method. As the mass fraction of the model drug BSA increased from 0 to 15%, the particle size gradually increased. The physical stability of the nanoparticles was investigated by zeta potential measurement and they were shown to be quite stable. Fluorescence spectroscopy confirmed that the loaded position of BSA was on the interface between the inner aqueous phase and the solid lipid phase. Both Fourier-transf...

Adomian decomposition method and Padé approximants for solving the Blaszak--Marciniak lattice

The Adomian decomposition method （ADM） and Pade approximants are combined to solve the well-known Blaszak-Marciniak lattice, which has rich mathematical structures and many important applications in physics and mathematics. In some cases, the truncated series solution of ADM is adequate only in a small region when the exact solution is not reached. To overcome the drawback, the Pade approximants, which have the advantage in turning the polynomials approximation into a rational function, are applied to the series solution to improve the accuracy and enlarge the convergence domain. By using the ADM-Pade technique, the soliton solutions of the Blaszak-Marciniak lattice are constructed with better accuracy and better convergence than by using the ADM alone. Numerical and figurative illustrations show that it is a promising tool for solving nonlinear problems.

Analysis of a separate 1319 and 1338 nm Nd:YAG laser with a blazing grating

We develop a separate 1319 and 1338 nm Nd:YAG laser system with a blazing grating (600 lines/mm). The resonator of this system has a Littrow grating configuration and a highly reflective mirror, in which the zero-order diffraction of the grating acts as the laser output. By virtue of the wavelength-dependent reflectivity of the grating, a single-wavelength laser at 1319 nm or 1338 nm can be realized. In view of the laser rate equations and using the distribution of the blazing grating, we analyze the oscillation conditions providing single-wavelength laser operation in the system.
