A reactive brilliant red X-3 B dye was used as a contaminant to test the photocatalytic activity of the obtained Bi_2 S_3-BiOCl samples under visible light irradiation. The sample Bi_2 S_3-BiOCl with a mass ratio of 8:4 exhibited the highest photodegradation efficiency, which was six times higher than that of pure BiOCl. In addition, a mechanism for the enhancement of photocatalytic activity is proposed.展开更多

The g-C3N4 microtubes were obtained by simple thermal polymerization of melamine-cyanuric acid complex microrods under N2 atmosphere, which were synthesized by hydrothermal treatment of melamine solution at 180℃ for 24 h. The as-obtained g-C3N4 microtubes exhibited a large surface area and a unique one-dimensional tubular structure, which provided abundant active sites for proton reduction and also facilitated the electron transfer processes. As such, the g-C3N4 microtubes showed enhanced photocatalytic H2 production activity in lactic acid aqueous solutions under visible light irradiation (A 〉 420 nm), which was - 3.1 times higher than that of bulk g-C3N4 prepared by direct thermal polymerization of the melamine precursor under the same calcination conditions.展开更多

The characterization results show that S-doping in the g-C3 N4 backbone can greatly enhance the charge mobility and visible light harvesting capability. In addition, porous morphology of hybrid composite provides available open pores for vip molecules and also improves light absorbing property due to existence of multiple scattering effects. More importantly, the Fe2 O3-xSx nanoparticles formed intimate heterojunction with CNS and developed the efficient charge transfer by extending interfacial interactions occurred at the interfaces of both components. It has been found that the Fe2 O3-xSx/CNS composites have an enhanced photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation compared with isolated Fe2 O3 and CNS components toward the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue(MB). The optimal loaded Fe2 O3-xSx value obtained is equal to 6.6 wt% that provided 82% MB photodegradation after 150 min with a reaction rate constant of 0.0092 min(-1) which was faster than those of the pure Fe2 O3(0.0016 min(-1))and CNS(0.0044 min(-1)) under the optimized operating variables acquired by the response surface methodology. The specific surface area and the pore volume of Fe2 O3(6.6)/CNS hybrid are 33.5 m2/g and0.195 cm3/g, which are nearly 3.8 and 7.5 times greater compared with those of the CNS, respectively. The TEM image of Fe2 O3(6.6)/CNS nanocomposite exhibits a nanoporous morphology with abundant uniform pore sizes of around 25 nm. Using the Mott-Schottky plot, the conduction and valence bands of the CNS are measured(at pH = 7) equal to-1.07 and 1.48 V versus normal hydrogen electrode(NHE), respectively.Trapping tests prove that ·OH-and ·O2-radicals are major active species in the photocatalytic reaction.It has been established that formation of the Z-scheme Fe2 O3(6.6)/CNS heterojunction between CNS and Fe2 O3 directly produces ·OH as well as ·O2-radicals which is consistent with the results obtained from trapping experiments.展开更多

Visible-lightdriven photocatalysis is a promising technology for virus inactivation. However, the existing photocatalytic antiviral research studies have mostly been carried out in single-component systems, neglecting the effect of natural organic matter, which exists widely in actual water bodies. In this paper, electrospun Cu-TiO2 nanofibers were prepared as photocatalysts, and their photocatalytic antiviral performance in the presence of humic acid(HA) was comprehensively studied for the first time. The properties of the reaction mixture were measured during the reaction. In addition, the safety, reliability and stability of photocatalytic disinfection in the mixed system were evaluated. The results showed that the virus removal efficiency decreased with the increase of the HA concentration. The type of reaction solution, such as PBS buffer solution or water, did not affect the removal efficiency noticeably. Under acidic conditions, the electrostatic forces between photocatalysts and viruses were strengthened, leading to higher virus removal efficiency. As the reaction time went on, the pH value in the solution increased first and then tended to be stable, the conductivity remained stable, and the dissolved oxygen increased first and then decreased. The safety test showed that the concentration of Cu ions released into the solution was lower than specified by the international standards. No photoreactivation was observed, and the addition of HA significantly reduced the reutilization efficiency of the photocatalysts.展开更多

The device is a layered structureprepared by depositing a 2D array of AuNPs on a transparent conductive substrate (10 nm indium tin oxide (ITO) layer on quartz),coating the 2D array of AuNPs with a monolayer of trimethoxyoctylsilane (TMOS), and depositing titania nanocrystals on the anchoringmolecule (TMOS) layer. The visible light activity of the device was tested using photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) byilluminating the device with visible light (700 nm light) and ultraviolet (UV) light (250–380 nm). The localized surface plasmonresonance peak of the 36 nm AuNP 2D array is around 700 nm with a full-width at half-maximum of 350 nm. In comparison with othercontrol samples, the device showed the highest photocatalytic activity with visible irradiation, which was 1.7 times higher than that oftitania with UV irradiation. The origin of the visible light activity was confirmed by both quadratic incident light power dependency andaction spectrum to be plasmon-induced (near-field enhancement by AuNPs) two-photon absorption.展开更多

文摘This study developed a novel heterogeneous Vis-Photo+Fenton-like system by integrating visible-light-responsive Co_(3)O_(4)/TiO_(2) photocatalysis with peroxymonosulfate(PMS)activation for efficient atrazine(ATZ)degradation.The synergistic process achieved complete ATZ removal within 60 min under near-neutral pH(6.9),outperform-ing individual Fenton-like(39%)and photocatalytic(24%)processes.Key factors influencing the degradation efficiency included light sources(UV>visible),pH(optimal at 6.9),catalyst dosage(0.01 g Co_(3)O_(4)/TiO_(2)),and PMS:ATZ molar ratio(1:2).The system exhibited a synergistic coefficient of 5.03(degradation)and 1.97(miner-alization),attributed to enhanced radical generation and accelerated Co^(3+)/Co^(2+)redox cycling through photoin-duced electron transfer.Intermediate analysis revealed dealkylation,dechlorination,and oxidation pathways,with reduced toxicity of by-products(e.g.,CEAT,CIAT)confirmed by ecotoxicity assessments.The mineralization efficiency(Vis-Photo+Fenton-like)reached 83.1%,significantly higher than that of standalone processes(Fenton-like:43.2%;photocatalysis:30.5%).The catalyst demonstrated excellent stability(nearly 90%recov-ery,<1μg/L Co leaching)and practical applicability.This study provides an efficient,sludge-free,and solar-compatible strategy for eliminating persistent herbicides in water treatment.

文摘In the image fusion field,fusing infrared images(IRIs)and visible images(VIs)excelled is a key area.The differences between IRIs and VIs make it challenging to fuse both types into a high-quality image.Accordingly,efficiently combining the advantages of both images while overcoming their shortcomings is necessary.To handle this challenge,we developed an end-to-end IRI andVI fusionmethod based on frequency decomposition and enhancement.By applying concepts from frequency domain analysis,we used the layering mechanism to better capture the salient thermal targets from the IRIs and the rich textural information from the VIs,respectively,significantly boosting the image fusion quality and effectiveness.In addition,the backbone network combined Restormer Blocks and Dense Blocks;Restormer blocks utilize global attention to extract shallow features.Meanwhile,Dense Blocks ensure the integration between shallow and deep features,thereby avoiding the loss of shallow attributes.Extensive experiments on TNO and MSRS datasets demonstrated that the suggested method achieved state-of-the-art(SOTA)performance in various metrics:Entropy(EN),Mutual Information(MI),Standard Deviation(SD),The Structural Similarity Index Measure(SSIM),Fusion quality(Qabf),MI of the pixel(FMI_(pixel)),and modified Visual Information Fidelity(VIF_(m)).

文摘Image fusion technology aims to generate a more informative single image by integrating complementary information from multi-modal images.Despite the significant progress of deep learning-based fusion methods,existing algorithms are often limited to single or dual-dimensional feature interactions,thus struggling to fully exploit the profound complementarity between multi-modal images.To address this,this paper proposes a parallel multidimensional complementary fusion network,termed PMCFusion,for the task of infrared and visible image fusion.The core of this method is its unique parallel three-branch fusion module,PTFM,which pioneers the parallel synergistic perception and efficient integration of three distinct dimensions:spatial uncorrelation,channel-wise disparity,and frequency-domain complementarity.Leveraging meticulously designed cross-dimensional attention interactions,PTFM can selectively enhance multi-dimensional features to achieve deep complementarity.Furthermore,to enhance the detail clarity and structural integrity of the fused image,we have designed a dedicated multi-scale high-frequency detail enhancement module,HFDEM.It effectively improves the clarity of the fused image by actively extracting,enhancing,and injecting high-frequency components in a residual manner.The overall model employs a multi-scale architecture and is constrained by corresponding loss functions to ensure efficient and robust fusion across different resolutions.Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method significantly outperforms current state-of-the-art fusion algorithms in both subjective visual effects and objective evaluation metrics.

文摘We investigate theoretically and experimentally the chaotic dynamics of visible-wavelength all-fiber ring laser.The100-m 630 HP fibers are used to ensure high non-linearity.A 4-m Pr^(3+)/Yb^(3+)-co-doped ZBLAN fiber provides the gain.The chaotic laser was pumped by the laser diodes with the maximum power of 150 mW at the wavelength of 850 nm.The peak fluorescence spectrum of Pr^(3+)/Yb^(3+)-co-doped ZBLAN fiber at the wavelength of 635 nm shows that the visiblewavelength fiber laser can be achieved by synergistic energy transfer between Pr~(3+)and Yb^(3+)ions.The chaotic fiber laser is generated by adjusting the pump power,polarization controller and the auto-correlation,permutation entropy,skewness,and kurtosis were used to analyze the characteristics of chaotic laser.The noise-like time series and delta-like auto-correlation curve indicate the chaotic output.The complexity and randomness of time series are analyzed by the permutation entropy,skewness,and kurtosis.The result shows that chaotic dynamics is stable when the pump power exceeds a certain value.The visible chaotic all-fiber laser has high stability and can be applied for real-time monitoring and sensing.We believe that this approach may also be feasible for other materials for emission in the visible range.

文摘Cross-band camouflage technology is a critical necessity,enabling personnel and equipment to evade detection across evolving surveillance systems,thereby enhancing survivability and mission success.Herein,this work develops a layer-structured composite system based on carbon nanotube(CNT)film comprising ionic liquid(IL)interlayer for infrared(IR)modulation and surface-engineered Cu_(2)O nanoparticles for visible camouflage.The CNT/IL/CNT architecture enables reversible IR emissivity switching(Δε≈0.55)through electrically driven ion intercalation/deintercalation within 2 s,while spray-coated Cu_(2)O nanoparticles(100~400 nm diameter)on the top CNT film layer generate rich structure colors with 90%IR transmittance.This spectral-decoupling design overcomes the traditional trade-off between color visibility and IR transmittance observed in pigment-based systems.Remarkably,due to physical interface coupling,the Cu_(2)O-coated layer-structured system maintains exceptional electrical conductivity,enabling simultaneous electromagnetic interference shielding and electrothermal energy conversion.The integrated system demonstrates long-term operational stability.By unifying visible-IR camouflage,electromagnetic protection,and energy management in a lightweight platform,this work provides an important paradigm for cross-band camouflage technologies.
文摘Light-driven artificial molecular machines[1,2]are a class of functional small molecules powered by photochemical reactions,broadly divided into molecular motors and molecular photoswitches.Molecular motors[3,4],owing to their intrinsic point chirality and dynamic axial chirality,undergo unidirectional rotation about a carbon–carbon double bond when irradiated with light.In nature,biological molecular motors and pumps are ubiquitous:driving vision,intracellular transport,energy conversion,signal transduction,muscle contraction,and locomotion.

文摘A template-free hydrothermal-assisted thermal polymerization method has been developed for the large-scale synthesis of one-dimensional (1D) graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) microtubes. The g-C3N4 microtubes were obtained by simple thermal polymerization of melamine-cyanuric acid complex microrods under N2 atmosphere, which were synthesized by hydrothermal treatment of melamine solution at 180℃ for 24 h. The as-obtained g-C3N4 microtubes exhibited a large surface area and a unique one-dimensional tubular structure, which provided abundant active sites for proton reduction and also facilitated the electron transfer processes. As such, the g-C3N4 microtubes showed enhanced photocatalytic H2 production activity in lactic acid aqueous solutions under visible light irradiation (A 〉 420 nm), which was - 3.1 times higher than that of bulk g-C3N4 prepared by direct thermal polymerization of the melamine precursor under the same calcination conditions.

文摘Several nanoporous Fe2 O3-xSx/S-doped g-C3 N4(CNS) Z-scheme hybrid heterojuctions have been successfully synthesized by one-pot in situ growth of the Fe2O3-xSx particles on the surface of CNS. The characterization results show that S-doping in the g-C3 N4 backbone can greatly enhance the charge mobility and visible light harvesting capability. In addition, porous morphology of hybrid composite provides available open pores for vip molecules and also improves light absorbing property due to existence of multiple scattering effects. More importantly, the Fe2 O3-xSx nanoparticles formed intimate heterojunction with CNS and developed the efficient charge transfer by extending interfacial interactions occurred at the interfaces of both components. It has been found that the Fe2 O3-xSx/CNS composites have an enhanced photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation compared with isolated Fe2 O3 and CNS components toward the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue(MB). The optimal loaded Fe2 O3-xSx value obtained is equal to 6.6 wt% that provided 82% MB photodegradation after 150 min with a reaction rate constant of 0.0092 min(-1) which was faster than those of the pure Fe2 O3(0.0016 min(-1))and CNS(0.0044 min(-1)) under the optimized operating variables acquired by the response surface methodology. The specific surface area and the pore volume of Fe2 O3(6.6)/CNS hybrid are 33.5 m2/g and0.195 cm3/g, which are nearly 3.8 and 7.5 times greater compared with those of the CNS, respectively. The TEM image of Fe2 O3(6.6)/CNS nanocomposite exhibits a nanoporous morphology with abundant uniform pore sizes of around 25 nm. Using the Mott-Schottky plot, the conduction and valence bands of the CNS are measured(at pH = 7) equal to-1.07 and 1.48 V versus normal hydrogen electrode(NHE), respectively.Trapping tests prove that ·OH-and ·O2-radicals are major active species in the photocatalytic reaction.It has been established that formation of the Z-scheme Fe2 O3(6.6)/CNS heterojunction between CNS and Fe2 O3 directly produces ·OH as well as ·O2-radicals which is consistent with the results obtained from trapping experiments.

文摘Pathogenic viruses in drinking water are great threats to public health. Visible-lightdriven photocatalysis is a promising technology for virus inactivation. However, the existing photocatalytic antiviral research studies have mostly been carried out in single-component systems, neglecting the effect of natural organic matter, which exists widely in actual water bodies. In this paper, electrospun Cu-TiO2 nanofibers were prepared as photocatalysts, and their photocatalytic antiviral performance in the presence of humic acid(HA) was comprehensively studied for the first time. The properties of the reaction mixture were measured during the reaction. In addition, the safety, reliability and stability of photocatalytic disinfection in the mixed system were evaluated. The results showed that the virus removal efficiency decreased with the increase of the HA concentration. The type of reaction solution, such as PBS buffer solution or water, did not affect the removal efficiency noticeably. Under acidic conditions, the electrostatic forces between photocatalysts and viruses were strengthened, leading to higher virus removal efficiency. As the reaction time went on, the pH value in the solution increased first and then tended to be stable, the conductivity remained stable, and the dissolved oxygen increased first and then decreased. The safety test showed that the concentration of Cu ions released into the solution was lower than specified by the international standards. No photoreactivation was observed, and the addition of HA significantly reduced the reutilization efficiency of the photocatalysts.

文摘We demonstrate a bottom-up approach to fabricating a visible light-driven titania photocatalyst device bearing an embeddedtwo-dimensional (2D) array of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as a near-field light-generating layer. The device is a layered structureprepared by depositing a 2D array of AuNPs on a transparent conductive substrate (10 nm indium tin oxide (ITO) layer on quartz),coating the 2D array of AuNPs with a monolayer of trimethoxyoctylsilane (TMOS), and depositing titania nanocrystals on the anchoringmolecule (TMOS) layer. The visible light activity of the device was tested using photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) byilluminating the device with visible light (700 nm light) and ultraviolet (UV) light (250–380 nm). The localized surface plasmonresonance peak of the 36 nm AuNP 2D array is around 700 nm with a full-width at half-maximum of 350 nm. In comparison with othercontrol samples, the device showed the highest photocatalytic activity with visible irradiation, which was 1.7 times higher than that oftitania with UV irradiation. The origin of the visible light activity was confirmed by both quadratic incident light power dependency andaction spectrum to be plasmon-induced (near-field enhancement by AuNPs) two-photon absorption.
文摘W, N co-doped TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized by a sol-gel method. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), trans- mission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-1R), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and diffuse reflectance spectrophotometry (DRS). The results showed that the co- doped photocatalysts were essentially uniform spherical particles with the smallest particle size of 22.5 nm. Compared to un-doped TiO2, N-TiO2 and P-25, the absorption edge of the W, N co-doped TiO2 shifted to longer wavelength and its photocatalytic activity for degradation of methyl orange (MO) under Xe-lamp (350W) was higher.
