However, the metallic Au exhibits weak adsorption strength towards CO_(2) due to its intrinsic electronic structure with d-orbitals fully filled, thus limiting the activation and reduction of CO_(2). To address this issue and maximize the photoreduction of CO_(2), herein we have designed Au@CZS@MO-400 triple-shelled hollow nanospheres by depositing Cd_(0.7)Zn_(0.3)S (CZS) on the outer surface of the MO-400 (MnO_(2) annealed at 400 ℃) hollow nanospheres and then Au nanoparticles on the CZS surface. It is manifested that the resultant 3%Au@CZS@MO-400 achieves a remarkably boosted photoreduction of CO_(2) with the CO/CH_(4) yield rates as high as 68.25/12.42 µmol g^(-1) h^(-1), increased by 3.7/1.5 times over MO-400 and 12.9/1.5 times over CZS. The combined analyses from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations confirm the creation of electron-deficient Auδ+ active sites by modulating their electron configuration by CZS, consequently decreasing the CO_(2)-Au antibonding-orbital occupancy to reinforce the adsorption strength of CO_(2) onto the Au active sites and in turn boost the photoreduction of CO_(2). Moreover, it is demonstrated that the Au@CZS@MO-400 hollow nanospheres are quite efficient for supplying the Au cocatalyst with photoelectrons for CO_(2) reduction reactions due to the good energy band matching, unique hollow structure and high electron spin polarization of MO-400. This work provides important guidance for understanding and modifying photocatalysts to maximize their photoreduction of CO_(2).展开更多

The quantitative model of atomic diffusion, which is related to the ultrasonic bonding parameters, time and distance, is established to calculate the atomic diffusion of the Al-Au interface. The maximum relative error between the calculated and experimental fraction of Al atom is 7.35%, indicating high prediction accuracy of this model. During the process of ultrasonic bonding, Au8Al3 is the main intermetallic compound (IMC) at the Al-Au interface. With larger bonding forces, higher ultrasonic powers and longer bonding time, it is more difficult to remove the oxide particles from the Al-Au interface, which hinders the atomic diffusion. Therefore, the complicated stress state and the existence of oxide particles both promotes the formation of holes. The shear strength of Al-Au ultrasonic bonding increases with increasing bonding force, ultrasonic power and bonding time. However, combined with the presence of holes at especial parameters, the optimal ultrasonic bonding parameter is confirmed to be a bonding force of 23 gf, ultrasonic power of 75 mW and bonding time of 21 ms.展开更多
