Aggregation‐Induced Electrochemiluminescence of Carboranyl Carbazoles in Aqueous Media

The aggregation‐induced electrochemiluminescence (AIECL) of carboranyl carbazoles in aqueous media was investigated for the first time. Quantum yields, morphologies, and particle sizes were observed to determine the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) performance of these aggregated organic dots (ODs). All compounds exhibit much higher ECL stability and intensity than the carborane‐free compound, demonstrating the essential role of the carboranyl motif. Moreover, the results of cyclic voltammetry (CV) suggest that oxidation/reduction reactions take place at the carboranyl motif. The excited states of ODs were proposed to be generated by the mechanism of surface state transitions. More importantly, these compounds show a reductive–oxidative mechanism in contrast to other organic materials that show oxidative–reductive mechanisms. Our experiments and data have established the relation between AIE organic structures and ECL properties that has a strong potential for biological and diagnostic applications.     

A Sustainable Solid Electrolyte Interphase for High‐Energy‐Density Lithium Metal Batteries Under Practical Conditions

High‐energy‐density Li metal batteries suffer from a short lifespan under practical conditions, such as limited lithium, high loading cathode, and lean electrolytes, owing to the absence of appropriate solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). Herein, a sustainable SEI was designed rationally by combining fluorinated co‐solvents with sustained‐release additives for practical challenges. The intrinsic uniformity of SEI and the constant supplements of building blocks of SEI jointly afford to sustainable SEI. Specific spatial distributions and abundant heterogeneous grain boundaries of LiF, LiN_xO_y, and Li₂O effectively regulate uniformity of Li deposition. In a Li metal battery with an ultrathin Li anode (33 μm), a high‐loading LiNi_0.5Co_0.2Mn_0.3O₂ cathode (4.4 mAh cm^?2), and lean electrolytes (6.1 g Ah^?1), 83 % of initial capacity retains after 150 cycles. A pouch cell (3.5 Ah) demonstrated a specific energy of 340 Wh kg^?1 for 60 cycles with lean electrolytes (2.3 g Ah^?1).     

Electrocatalytically Active Fe‐(O‐C2)4 Single‐Atom Sites for Efficient Reduction of Nitrogen to Ammonia

Single‐atom catalysts have demonstrated their superiority over other types of catalysts for various reactions. However, the reported nitrogen reduction reaction single‐atom electrocatalysts for the nitrogen reduction reaction exclusively utilize metal–nitrogen or metal–carbon coordination configurations as catalytic active sites. Here, we report a Fe single‐atom electrocatalyst supported on low‐cost, nitrogen‐free lignocellulose‐derived carbon. The extended X‐ray absorption fine structure spectra confirm that Fe atoms are anchored to the support via the Fe‐(O‐C₂)₄ coordination configuration. Density functional theory calculations identify Fe‐(O‐C₂)₄ as the active site for the nitrogen reduction reaction. An electrode consisting of the electrocatalyst loaded on carbon cloth can afford a NH₃ yield rate and faradaic efficiency of 32.1 μg h^?1 mg_cat.^?1 (5350 μg h^?1 mg_Fe^?1) and 29.3 %, respectively. An exceptional NH₃ yield rate of 307.7 μg h^?1 mg_cat.^?1 (51 283 μg h^?1 mg_Fe^?1) with a near record faradaic efficiency of 51.0 % can be achieved with the electrocatalyst immobilized on a glassy carbon electrode.     

DNA‐Based Adaptive Plasmonic Logic Gates

Self‐assembled plasmonic logic gates that read DNA molecules as input and return plasmonic chiroptical signals as outputs are reported. Such logic gates are achieved on a DNA‐based platform that logically regulate the conformation of a chiral plasmonic nanostructure, upon specific input DNA strands and internal computing units. With systematical designs, a complete set of Boolean logical gates are realized. Intriguingly, the logic gates could be endowed with adaptiveness, so they can autonomously alter their logics when the environment changes. As a demonstration, a logic gate that performs AND function at body temperature while OR function at cold storage temperature is constructed. In addition, the plasmonic chiroptical output has three distinctive states, which makes a three‐state molecular logic gate readily achievable on this platform. Such DNA‐based plasmonic logic gates are envisioned to execute more complex tasks giving these unique characteristics.     

可控碳改性Pd/TiO2用于直接合成双氧水:非均相界面对催化性能的影响（英文）

双氧水(H2O2)是一种重要的绿色氧化剂,广泛应用于纺织、医疗、废水处理、军事等重要领域.目前, H2O2的工业生产以蒽醌法为主,该法设备投资大、运行成本高,同时工艺涉及大量的有机溶液,活性中间体蒽醌也会发生缓慢降解,产生有毒副产物.与蒽醌法相比,通过负载型贵金属催化剂催化H2与O2反应直接合成H2O2,过程绿色环保且生产工艺简单,引起了各界广泛关注.然而,从热力学上分析, H2和O2更容易反应生成H2O, H2O2只是该反应的中间产物,会继续发生加氢和直接分解反应生成H2O,导致H2和O2的低效利用,开发高H2O2选择性且高反应效率的催化剂已成为氢氧直接合成H2O2研究的重点与难点.目前大部分研究策略旨在通过调控或影响反应中心结构、价态来抑制H2O2的副反应,进而提升H2O2的选择性和反应效率;尽管已取得了良好的进展,但仍需发展新的调控策略来满足工业应用的要求.本课题组前期研究表明,促使H2O2从催化剂上脱附可以有效地提升H2O2的选择性和产率.相比于针对反应中心的调控,不稳定的H2O2从催化剂上快速脱附同样起到抑制H2O2参与副反应的作用.为此,本文提出一种炭量可控的非均一界面改性方法,以常规的Pd/TiO2作为研究对象,借助各种结构表征,发现炭物种在TiO2表面呈非均一分散状态,而且改性对于催化剂的几何结构影响较小;另外,催化剂表面的疏水性会随着碳含量的增加而增加,导致其与H2O2间的吸附能相应变小.反应结果显示,表面非均一的炭化改性技术可以显著提升Pd/TiO2催化剂的H2O2选择性和产率.通过构效关系分析,可知这种改性技术可以保持Pd颗粒与TiO2间相互作用的同时,还可以促进H2O2的快速脱附,进而提升改性Pd/TiO2催化剂的H2O2直接合成效率.该改性方法简单、易控,可拓展应用到其他类型催化剂的H2O2直接合成性能调控与改进.

N和F共掺杂C3N4的制备及其可见光催化性能

针对氮化碳（C₃N₄）光生电荷易复合、光催化性能有限的不足,我们制备N和F共掺杂C₃N₄（NF-C₃N₄）,以提升其光催化性能。利用NH₄F在高温下原位分解产生的HF和NH₃,对C₃N₄刻蚀的同时实现N和F双元素共掺杂。以氯化铵（NH₄Cl）为对照,制备N掺杂C₃N₄（N-C₃N₄）。利用扫描电子显微镜（SEM）、能谱仪（EDS）、X射线光电子能谱（XPS）、X射线衍射（XRD）、比表面积测试和电化学表征手段研究N、F共掺杂对C₃N₄形貌、成分、结构和物化性质等的影响规律。相比于C₃N₄和N-C₃N₄,NF-C₃N₄呈多孔状,比表面积增大,光生电荷的生成、分离和转移均被促进,NF-C₃N₄光催化还原Cr （Ⅵ）的速率是C₃N₄的2.6倍、N-C₃N₄的1.7倍。进一步考察了不同前驱体（尿素、双氰胺和三聚氰胺）对制备C₃N₄的影响,发现以尿素为前驱体的C₃N₄与NH₄F的质量比为3∶2时,NF-C₃N₄呈现最佳的光催化性能。催化剂用量、光照强度、空穴捕获剂浓度的增加和pH的降低均能提高Cr （Ⅵ）还原速率。在NF-C₃N₄浓度为0.1 g·L^-1、pH=3、c_EDTA-2Na=2 mmol·L^-1、40 min可见光照射后,Cr （Ⅵ）去除率达到90%。5次循环实验表明,优化制备的NF-C₃N₄光催化还原Cr （Ⅵ）的性能保持良好,具有较高的稳定性。
