It is clear that the macro-properties of granular materials are closely related to the micro-fracture properties of grains in 1D compression and creep tests. In this paper, a series of 1D compression and creep tests were performed on Ottawa sand to investigate the deformation and grain crushing properties of granular materials, and it shows that the void ratio is correlated to the grain crushing amount (the quantity of crushed grains) for granular materials subjected to grain crushing. The test results, combining with the existing test data related to grain crushing of granular materials, were used to verify the relation. Moreover, the implications of these relations on the yield of granular material, and the equivalent effect of stress and time in changing soil fabric are presented.展开更多

The 1D GaN nanomaterials transformed from Ga_2O_3 nanoribbons consisted of numerous GaN nanoplatelets having the close-packed plane, i.e.(0002)2H or(111)3C parallel to the axes of starting nanoribbons. The 1D GaN nanomaterials converted from Ga_2O_3 nanorods were polycrystalline rods covered with GaN nanoparticles along the axes.

The cross-sectional shape of Ga N nanowires were analyzed through the transmission electron microscopy(TEM) images. Formation mechanism of all-mentioned 1D GaN nanomaterials is then thoroughly discussed.展开更多

Moreover, the "false positives" results caused by a single biomolecule detections easily leads to erroneous clinical diagnosis and treatment. Thus, it is important for the homogenous quantification of multiple biomolecules in not only basic research but also practical application. As a consequent, a large number of literatures have been exploited to monitor multiple biomolecules in homogenous solution, enabling facilitating the development of the disease diagnosis, treatment as well as drug discovery. One-dimensional nanomaterials and two-dimensional nanomaterials have special physical and chemical properties, such as good electrochemical properties, stable structure, large specific surface area, and biocompatibility, which are widely used in electrochemical and fluorescent detection of biomolecules. This tutorial review highlights the recent development for the detection of multiple biomolecules by using nanomaterials including one-dimensional materials(1DMs) as well as twodimensional materials(2DMs).展开更多

It is expected that the steady growth of ODCNMs in flames will be improved through the preparation of the catalysts.展开更多

文摘Lithium vanadium oxide(Li_(3)VO_(4))has gained attention as an alternative anode material because of its higher theoretical capacity(592 mAh g^(−1)),moderate ionic conductivity(∼10^(−4)S cm^(−1)),and lower working voltage range(∼0.5–1.0 V vs.Li/Li^(+))in comparison to other metal oxides.However,there are disadvantages to using Li_(3)VO_(4)as an anode material,such as low initial Coulombic efficiency and poor rate performance that is attributed to its low electronic conductivity(<10^(−1)0 S cm^(−1)).In the present study,the synthesis of one-dimensional Li_(3)VO_(4)electrode was performed via a facile method by using oxidized vapor grown carbon fiber as a template and the formation of the outer shells of conductive carbon via chemical vapor deposition technique.In a half-cell configuration,the prepared Li_(3)VO_(4)composites exhib-ited an enhanced electrochemical performance with a reversible capacity of 516.2 mAh g^(−1)after 100 cycles at a rate of 0.5 C within the voltage range of 0.01–3.0 V.At a high rate of 5 C,a large reversible capacity of 322.6 mAh g^(−1)was also observed after 500 cycles.The full cell(LVO/VGCF16-C||LiCoO_(2))using LiCoO_(2)as the cathode showed competitive electrochemical performance,which demonstrates its high potential in commercial applications.

文摘Grain crushing plays an important role in one-dimensional (1D) compression and creep behaviors of granular materials under high stress. It is clear that the macro-properties of granular materials are closely related to the micro-fracture properties of grains in 1D compression and creep tests. In this paper, a series of 1D compression and creep tests were performed on Ottawa sand to investigate the deformation and grain crushing properties of granular materials, and it shows that the void ratio is correlated to the grain crushing amount (the quantity of crushed grains) for granular materials subjected to grain crushing. The test results, combining with the existing test data related to grain crushing of granular materials, were used to verify the relation. Moreover, the implications of these relations on the yield of granular material, and the equivalent effect of stress and time in changing soil fabric are presented.

文摘One-dimensional(1D) GaN nanomaterials exhibiting various morphologies and atomic structures were prepared via ammoniation of either Ga_2O_3 nanoribbons, Ga_2O_3 nanorods or Ga nanowires filled into carbon nanotubes(CNTs). The 1D GaN nanomaterials transformed from Ga_2O_3 nanoribbons consisted of numerous GaN nanoplatelets having the close-packed plane, i.e.(0002)2H or(111)3C parallel to the axes of starting nanoribbons. The 1D GaN nanomaterials converted from Ga_2O_3 nanorods were polycrystalline rods covered with GaN nanoparticles along the axes. The 1D GaN nanomaterials prepared from Ga nanowires filled into CNTs displayed two dominant morphologies:(i) single crystalline Ga N nanocolumns coated by CNTs, and(ii) pure single crystalline Ga N nanowires. The cross-sectional shape of Ga N nanowires were analyzed through the transmission electron microscopy(TEM) images. Formation mechanism of all-mentioned 1D GaN nanomaterials is then thoroughly discussed.

文摘The unique advantages of one-dimensional(1D)oriented nanostructures in light-trapping and chargetransport make them competitive candidates in photovoltaic(PV)devices.Since the emergence of perovskite solar cells(PSCs),1D nanostructured electron transport materials(ETMs)have drawn tremendous interest.However,the power conversion efficiencies(PCEs)of these devices have always significantly lagged behind their mesoscopic and planar counterparts.High-efficiency PSCs with 1D ETMs showing efficiency over 22%were just realized in the most recent studies.It yet lacks a comprehensive review covering the development of 1D ETMs and their application in PSCs.We hence timely summarize the advances in 1D ETMs-based solar cells,emphasizing on the fundamental and optimization issues of charge separation and collection ability,and their influence on PV performance.After sketching the classification and requirements for high-efficiency 1D nanostructured solar cells,we highlight the applicability of 1D TiO_(2)nanostructures in PSCs,including nanotubes,nanorods,nanocones,and nanopyramids,and carefully analyze how the electrostatic field affects cell performance.Other kinds of oriented nanostructures,e.g.,ZnO and SnO_(2)ETMs,are also described.Finally,we discuss the challenges and propose some potential strategies to further boost device performance.This review provides a broad range of valuable work in this fast-developing field,which we hope will stimulate research enthusiasm to push PSCs to an unprecedented level.

文摘The complexity of biological samples determines that the detection of a single biomolecule is unable to satisfy actual needs. Moreover, the "false positives" results caused by a single biomolecule detections easily leads to erroneous clinical diagnosis and treatment. Thus, it is important for the homogenous quantification of multiple biomolecules in not only basic research but also practical application. As a consequent, a large number of literatures have been exploited to monitor multiple biomolecules in homogenous solution, enabling facilitating the development of the disease diagnosis, treatment as well as drug discovery. One-dimensional nanomaterials and two-dimensional nanomaterials have special physical and chemical properties, such as good electrochemical properties, stable structure, large specific surface area, and biocompatibility, which are widely used in electrochemical and fluorescent detection of biomolecules. This tutorial review highlights the recent development for the detection of multiple biomolecules by using nanomaterials including one-dimensional materials(1DMs) as well as twodimensional materials(2DMs).

文摘Cluster-assembled materials have long been pursued as they can create some unprecedented and desirable properties.Herein,we assemble a class of one-dimensional(1D)ReNX_(4)(X=F,Cl,Br and I)and MFs(M=V,Nb and Ta)nanowires by covalently linking their superatomic clusters.These assembled ID nanowires exhibit outstanding energetic and dynamic stabilities,and hold sizable spontaneous polarization,low ferroelectric switching barriers and high critical temperature.Their superior ferroelec-tricity is originated from do-configuration transition metal ions generated by the hybridization of empty d orbitals of metal atoms and p orbitals of non-metal atoms.These critical insights pave a new avenue to fabricate 1D ferroelectrics toward the development of miniaturized and high-density electronic devices using building blocks as cluster with precise structures and functionalities.

文摘The oxygen evolution reaction(OER),a critical half-reaction in water electrolysis,has garnered significant attention.However,sluggish OER kinetics has emerged as a major impediment to efficient electrochemical energy conversion.There is an urgent need to design novel electrocatalysts with optimized OER kinetics and enhanced intrinsic activity to improve overall OER performance.Herein,one-dimensional(1D)nanocomposites with high electrocatalytic activity were developed through the deposition of CoFePBA nanocubes onto the surface of MnO_(2) nanowires.The electronic structure of the nanocomposite surface was modified,and the synergistic effects between transition metals were leveraged to enhance catalytic activity through the deposition of Prussian blue analog(PBA)nanocubes on manganese dioxide nanowires.Specifically,CoFePBA featured an open crystal structure that offiered numerous electrochemical active sites and efficient charge transfer pathways.Additionally,the synergistic interactions between Co and Fe significantly reduced the OER overpotential.Additionally,the 1D rigid MnO_(2) acted as protective armor,ensuring the stability of active sites within CoFePBA during the OER.The synthesized MnO_(2)@CoFePBA achieved an overpotential of 1.614 V at 10 mA/cm^(2) and a small Tafel slope of 94 mV/dec and demonstrated stable performance for over 200 h.This work offers new insights into the rational design of various PBA-based nanocomposites with high activity and stability.

文摘One-dimensional carbon nano-materials (ODCNMs) synthesized from ethanol flames exhibit various agglomerated morphologies, such as "chrysanthemum-like", "hairball-like" or "orange-peel-like", "vertically aligned" and "wrinkling-pileup". The present work studied the agglomerating process and the growth mechanism by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It is thought that the size and distribution of the catalyst particles produced from pretreatment of the substrates play a key role during the formation of agglomerations. It is expected that the steady growth of ODCNMs in flames will be improved through the preparation of the catalysts.
文摘Supercapacitors are gaining popularity due to their high cycling stability,power density,and fast charge and discharge rates.Researchers are ex-ploring electrode materials,electrolytes,and separat-ors for cost-effective energy storage systems.Ad-vances in materials science have led to the develop-ment of hybrid nanomaterials,such as combining fil-amentous carbon forms with inorganic nanoparticles,to create new charge and energy transfer processes.Notable materials for electrochemical energy-stor-age applications include MXenes,2D transition met-al carbides,and nitrides,carbon black,carbon aerogels,activated carbon,carbon nanotubes,conducting polymers,carbon fibers,and nanofibers,and graphene,because of their thermal,electrical,and mechanical properties.Carbon materials mixed with conducting polymers,ceramics,metal oxides,transition metal oxides,metal hydroxides,transition metal sulfides,trans-ition metal dichalcogenide,metal sulfides,carbides,nitrides,and biomass materials have received widespread attention due to their remarkable performance,eco-friendliness,cost-effectiveness,and renewability.This article explores the development of carbon-based hybrid materials for future supercapacitors,including electric double-layer capacitors,pseudocapacitors,and hy-brid supercapacitors.It investigates the difficulties that influence structural design,manufacturing(electrospinning,hydro-thermal/solvothermal,template-assisted synthesis,electrodeposition,electrospray,3D printing)techniques and the latest car-bon-based hybrid materials research offer practical solutions for producing high-performance,next-generation supercapacitors.

文摘High-entropy materials represent a new category of high-performance materials,first proposed in 2004 and extensively investigated by researchers over the past two decades.The definition of high-entropy materials has continuously evolved.In the last ten years,the discovery of an increasing number of high-entropy materials has led to significant advancements in their utilization in energy storage,electrocatalysis,and related domains,accompanied by a rise in techniques for fabricating high-entropy electrode materials.Recently,the research emphasis has shifted from solely improving the performance of high-entropy materials toward exploring their reaction mechanisms and adopting cleaner preparation approaches.However,the current definition of high-entropy materials remains relatively vague,and the preparation method of high-entropy materials is based on the preparation method of single metal/low-or medium-entropy materials.It should be noted that not all methods applicable to single metal/low-or medium-entropy materials can be directly applied to high-entropy materials.In this review,the definition and development of high-entropy materials are briefly reviewed.Subsequently,the classification of high-entropy electrode materials is presented,followed by a discussion of their applications in energy storage and catalysis from the perspective of synthesis methods.Finally,an evaluation of the advantages and disadvantages of various synthesis methods in the production process of different high-entropy materials is provided,along with a proposal for potential future development directions for high-entropy materials.
