依次用溶剂热法和水热法制备得到暴露(101)晶面的八面双锥体二氧化钛OBP-TiO2和不同碳负载量的N-CDs/OBP-TiO2复合催化剂,以及暴露(001)晶面的纳米片二氧化钛TNS和不同碳负载量的N-CDs/TNS复合催化剂。利用TEM、XRD、XPS等表征手段对这2类复合催化剂的形貌结构、化学成分等作了鉴定。系统研究了碳量子点负载量对可见光降解RhB的光催化性能影响。实验发现,由于N-CDs的加入,均能较大提高2类复合催化剂的光催化性能。(101)高裸露晶面N-CDs/OBP-TiO2比(001)高裸露晶面N-CDs/TNS的光催化活性高。     

CdS纳米晶@碳点复合物膜的电致化学发光

采用热解柠檬酸法制备碳点(CDs),并将之与表面无包裹剂的CdS纳米晶(CdS NCs)超声复合制备CdS纳米晶@碳点(CdS NCs@CDs)复合物。研究了复合物膜阴极电致化学发光(ECL),探讨了CDs对CdS纳米晶膜ECL增强的机理。CDs分散性良好、尺寸在1.5~4 nm之间;与粒径约为4 nm的CdS纳米晶按体积比2∶3复合后,在360 nm光激发下复合物具有最强的荧光发射且表现为CDs的荧光。同时,复合物膜产生归属于激发态CdS纳米晶的最强的ECL发射,且ECL发光峰起置电势正移至-1.05 V。复合物膜的ECL发射是pH依赖的,在pH值为6时,复合物膜具有最大的ECL强度,为CdS纳米晶膜ECL强度的19倍。这种ECL增强源于CDs能束缚大量电子产生局域电场从而促进近邻CdS纳米晶激发态的形成与弛豫。     

香菇生物质基氮掺杂微孔碳材料的制备及其在超级电容器中的应用

采用简易浸泡法和一步碳化/活化法制备香菇生物质基氮掺杂微孔碳材料(NMCs),利用扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、透射电子显微镜(SEM)、X射线衍射(XRD)和X射线光电子能谱(XPS)对材料的结构形貌进行表征,并研究了其超级电容特性。测试结果表明,NMCs的微孔比表面积高达1 594 m~2·g~(-1),且拥有更高数量的含氮官能团,其吡啶型含氮官能团比例也有所提高,展现出优异的超级电容特性。在0.5 A·g~(-1)的电流密度下,其比容量高达325 F·g~(-1),当电流密度上升到20 A·g~(-1)时,其比电容仍然高达180 F·g~(-1),表现出优异的倍率性能;同时,在5 A·g~(-1)的电流密度下,电极经历5 000次充放电循环后具有97.7%的比容量保持率,展现出优异的循环稳定性。这主要归因于NMCs超高的微孔比表面积和丰富的含氮官能团。     

荧光碳点的制备及银离子辅助的点亮型识别青霉胺

以半胱氨酸为原料,通过一步热解法制备了荧光碳点（CDs）,并采用透射电镜（TEM）、动态光散射（DLS）、X射线能谱分析（XPS）、紫外可见吸收光谱（UV-Vis）和荧光光谱（FL）对其进行了表征。结果表明该碳点平均尺寸为3.12 nm,且表现出了良好的荧光特性。银离子能够与碳点结合进而通过光诱导的电子转移有效猝灭碳点的荧光。青霉胺得益于其与重金属离子的配位作用,能够与银离子结合使得后者离开碳点表面从而实现荧光恢复。基于此,我们建立了银离子辅助的碳点荧光点亮型识别青霉胺的新方法。该方法的线性范围为8~500 μmol·L^-1,检出限为5.62 μmol·L^-1。该荧光体系用于尿液样品测定,回收率在97.17%~102.05%范围内。     

Porous surfur-doped hard carbon for excellent potassium storage

Hard carbon is promising anode for potassium-ion batteries(PIBs),however,the poor rate capability hinders its development as potential anode.To address this question,we design a sulfur-doped porous hard carbon(S-HC)for PIBs through the combination of structural design and composition adjustment.The as-designed S-HC exhibits a long cycling life with^191 mAh/g after 300 cycles at 1 A/g,and an excellent rate capability with^100 mAh/g at 5 A/g,which was attributed to its structural characteristics and compositions.The S-HC demonstrates to be promising anode in the future.

One-step synthesis of monodispersed Pt nanoparticles anchored on 3D graphene foams and its application for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution

Although platinum-based materials are regarded as the state-of-the-art electro-catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction(HER),high cost and quantity scarcity hamper their scale-up utilization in industrial deployment.Herein,a one-step strategy was developed to synthesize multi-walled carbon nanotubes and reduced graphene oxide supported Pt nanoparticle hydrogel(PtNP/rGO-MWCNT),in which only ascorbic acid was used as the reductant for one-pot reduction of both GO and chloroplatinic acid.The hydrogel can be directly used as a flexible binder-free catalytic electrode to achieve high performance of HER.Compared to conventional strategies,the current strategy not only significantly reduces the Pt loading to 3.48 wt%,simplifies the synthesis process,but also eliminates the use of any polymer binders,thus decreasing the series resistance and improving catalytic activity.An overpotential of only 11 mV was achieved on as-prepared PtNP/rGO-MWCNT to drive a geometrical current density of 10 mA/cm2 in0.5 mol/L H2 SO4,with its catalytic activity being kept over 15 h.In acidic medium,the HER activity of the PtNP/rGO-MWCNT catalyst exceeds most of the reported Pt-based electro-catalysts and is 3-fold higher than that obtained on commercial Pt/C electrode.     

Hierarchical porous nanofibers of carbon@nickel oxide nanoparticles derived from polymer/block copolymer system

The triblock copolymer (PAA-b-PAN-b-PAA) is prepared by reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer polymerization, and then blended with polymer (PAN) and metal hydroxide (Ni(OH)₂) as a precursor for heat-treatment. A composite material of hierarchical porous nanofibers and nickel oxide nanoparticles (HPCF@NiO) is prepared by electrospinning combined with high-temperature carbonization. The effects of the ratio of PAA and PAA-b-PAN-b-PAA on the internal structure of nanofibers and their electrochemical properties as positive electrode materials are investigated. The experimental results show that when the ratio of PAA to PAA-b-PAN-b-PAA is 1.3 to 0.4, it has good pore structure and excellent electrochemical performance. At the current density of 1 A/g, the specific capacitance is 188.7 F/g and the potential window is −1 V to 0.37 V. The asymmetric supercapacitor assembled with activated carbon as the negative electrode materials has a specific capacitance of 21.2 F/g in 2 mol/L KOH and a capacitance retention of 85.7% after 12,500 cycles at different current density.     

Molecular engineering of CxNy: Topologies,electronic structures and multidisciplinary applications

As a class of metal-free two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor materials, polymeric carbon nitrides have attracted wide attention recently due to its facile regulation of the molecular and electronic structures, availability in abundance and high stability. According to the different ratios of C and N atoms in the framework, a series of C_xN_y materials have been successfully synthesized by virtue of various precursors, which further triggers extensive investigations of broad applications ranging from sustainable photocatalytic reactions and highly sensitive optoelectronic biosensing. In view of topological structures on their electronic structures and material properties, the as-reported C_xN_y could be generally classified into two main categories with three- or six-bond-extending frameworks. Owing to the effective n→π* transition in most C_xN_y materials, the relative energy level of the lone-pair electrons on N atoms is high, which thus endows the materials with the capability of visible light absorption. Meanwhile, the different repeating units, bridging groups and defect sites of these two kinds of C_xN_y allow them to effectively drive a diverse of promising applications that require specific electronic, interfacial and geometric properties. This review paper aims to summarize the recent progress in topological structure design and the relevant electronic band structures and striking properties of C_xN_y materials. In the final part, we also discuss the existing challenges of C_xN_y and outlook the prospect possibilities.
