Mononuclear Water Oxidation Catalysts

Recently, several mononuclear water oxidation catalysts have been reported, a breakthrough considering the dogma that at least two metal sites were required to oxidize water efficiently. In this Review various mononuclear catalysts which have been reported in the last five years are reviewed, as well as their implementation in prototype devices that allow dioxygen formation to be coupled to dihydrogen production will be discussed.     

重金属铊在环境介质中的分布及其迁移行为

铊是剧毒重金属元素,它在自然界中是典型的稀有分散金属。环境介质中铊的自然本底值较低,但随着铊矿床的开发和铊资源的广泛应用,岩矿石中的铊在自然力或人为作用下向环境介质中迁移。综述了铊在岩（矿）石、土壤、水体、动植物和人体中的分布,以及在上述环境介质及大气中的迁移行为。研究表明,人类活动是导致环境介质中铊含量增加的主要原因。铊在环境介质中的迁移是反复循环的复杂过程,通过风化、溶解、淋滤、吸收、沉降、固结等方式在环境介质中循环往复,从而危害环境生态和人体健康。铊污染应引起人们的普遍重视。     

New Advances in Catalytic Systems for Conversion of CH_4 and CO_2

One of the main goals for developing the C1 chemical industry is the direct conversion of methane and carbon dioxide to useful products. To realize this goal, researches on new catalytic systems are being globally focused. The exploration has been evolved from traditional heterogeneous catalysis into homogeneous catalysis. Coordinate complexes, biochemical and bionics, and photo- and electrochemical catalysis have been extensively studied in recent years. Tests in laboratories have verified for the direct conversion of CH4 to CH3OH that single-pass converstion of CH4 can reach over 70% in both Hg(II) salt and Pt(II) complex systems. The main problem of these systems is the obstacles involving reaction kinetics, so they must be solved before moving to pilot tests. Other catalytic systems discussed in the present article include explorations in the early stage. Among them, features of photo and enzymatic catalyst systems, such as mild reaction conditions, better selectivity and environmentally friendliness

Asymmetric Electrochemical Transformations

The field of electrochemical synthesis has developed rapidly over the last decade and has provided alternative synthetic methods with the absence of stoichiometric amounts of chemical oxidants or reductants. Although sustainable electrosynthetic procedures have been developed, relatively few examples of highly enantioselective catalytic electrosynthesis have been reported to date. The development of general strategies for electrochemical enantiocontrol has thus proven to be a considerable challenge. This Minireview highlights the current knowledge and recent advances in the synthetic utility of electrochemical transformations for asymmetric synthesis. Specifically, three major types of catalytic enantioselective strategy in electrosynthesis are outlined, including electrochemical activation of chiral catalyst‐bound substrates, asymmetric cascade electrochemical processes, and chemically modified chiral electrodes.     

对电极材料对非贵金属电催化剂耐久性评价的影响

质子交换膜燃料电池(PEMFCs)环境友好,具有高的能量转换效率,已受到了广泛的关注.目前,铂基电催化剂广泛使用在 PEMFCs中,但铂的储量有限,活性低,耐久性差,成本高,急需开发高性能的非贵金属电催化剂替代铂基电催化剂.非贵金属电催化剂的电化学表征基本上都沿用了铂基电催化剂的评价体系和方法,不一定适用于非贵金属电催化剂的表征.
　　本文选用铂和石墨为对电极考察其对非贵金属电催化剂在酸性电解质中耐久性测试的影响.当使用铂对电极时,商业 Pt/C电催化剂的氧还原(ORR)活性随着耐久性测试圈数的增加而降低,而非贵金属电催化剂的氧还原活性在耐久性测试过程中的变化规律与商业 Pt/C不同,呈现先降低,后升高的规律.耐久性测试前后的透射电镜(TEM)分析表明非贵金属电催化剂经过耐久性测试后,在电催化剂表面生长了铂纳米颗粒.高分辨透射电镜(HRTEM)和能量色散 X射线光谱(EDX)进一步证明以铂为对电极的三电极体系,在进行非贵金属电催化剂耐久性测试的过程中,非贵金属电催化剂表面生长了铂纳米颗粒,使得非贵金属电催化剂的 ORR活性在耐久性测试后得到显著提高.耐久性测试前后,非贵金属电催化剂氧还原过程的电子转移数由3.7变为4.0,再次证明了耐久性测试过程中铂颗粒的生成.在三电极电化学体系中,当工作电极发生阴极反应时,对电极为阳极反应,反之亦然,即在工作电极上发生的任何电化学过程,都会在对电极上完成相反的电化学过程.在循环电位扫描过程中,当铂对电极的电压高于1.0 V (vs RHE)时,开始发生铂的溶解现象,并且当电压高于1.2 V (vs RHE)时,铂的溶解量会急剧增加,部分溶解的铂会扩散到工作电极附近,并在工作电极的非贵金属电催化剂表面发生沉积作用.随着扫描圈数的增加,沉积的铂纳米颗粒的数量增加,颗粒变大,从而使非贵金属电催化剂的表观 ORR活性显著提高.该现象使得非贵金属电催化剂在酸性电解质中无法表现出其真实的耐久性.当选用石墨棒为对电极材料时,非贵金属电催化剂在酸性电解质中的 ORR活性不会受到对电极材料的影响.
　　通过考察对电极材料对非贵金属电催化剂在酸性电解质中耐久性能的影响,可以得出结论,即对非贵金属电催化剂在酸性电解质中的耐久性测试中,不宜使用铂对电极,应该使用石墨为对电极材料,以防止对电极材料干扰耐久性测试.

Hitting probabilities and the Hausdorff dimension of the inverse images of a class of anisotropic random fields

Let X = {X(t):t ∈ R~N} be an anisotropic random field with values in R~d.Under certain conditions on X,we establish upper and lower bounds on the hitting probabilities of X in terms of respectively Hausdorff measure and Bessel-Riesz capacity.We also obtain the Hausdorff dimension of its inverse image,and the Hausdorff and packing dimensions of its level sets.These results are applicable to non-linear solutions of stochastic heat equations driven by a white in time and spatially homogeneous Gaussian noise and anisotropic Guassian random fields.     

与色散介质毗邻的一维半无限光子晶体表面态

运用Bloch定理和传输矩阵方法,研究了与色散介质毗邻的由两种材料组成的半无限一维光子晶体局域表面态的电场和色散关系.和以空气为背景的一维光子晶体相比,毗邻色散介质的光子晶体表面模色散曲线在一定堆积次序下会在较低的带隙中发生断开,较高带隙中的表面模群速度在不同堆积次序下会有很大差异.当与色散介质毗邻的物质折射率较大时,较高带隙中的表面模群速度较小;与色散介质毗邻的物质折射率较小时,较高带隙中表面模的群速度较大.
