However, challenges such as limited charge mobility in organic bulk heterojunction(BHJ) layers, and energy-level mismatch at the perovskite/BHJ interface still sustain. Recent advancements in non-fullerene acceptors(NFAs), interfacial engineering, and emerging materials have improved charge transfer/transport, and overall power conversion efficiency(PCE) of IPOSCs.This review explores key developments in IPOSCs, focusing on low-bandgap materials for near-infrared absorption, energy alignment optimization, and strategies to enhance photocurrent density and device performance. Future innovations in material selection and device architecture will be crucial for further improving the efficiency of IPOSCs, bringing them closer to practical application in next-generation photovoltaic technologies.展开更多

文摘Exploring secondary organic aerosol(SOA)processes is crucial for understanding climate and air pollution in megacities.This study introduces a new method using positive matrix factorization(PMF)to investigate the SOA process by integrating the OA and associated ions previously misidentified as inorganic aerosol in high-resolution aerosol mass spectrometry data.The mass spectra and time series of primary OA(POA)and less oxidized oxygenated OA(OOA)identified by this new method resembled those resolved by traditional PMF.However,more oxidized OOA(MO-OOA)identified by traditional PMF can be further subdivided into multiple OA factors,including nitrogen-enriched OA(ON-OA)and sulfur-enriched OA(OS-OA)in summer,and ON-OA,OS-OA,and OOA in winter.Our findings highlight the significant role of photochemical processes in the formation of OS-OA compared to ON-OA.The compositions of reconstructed MO-OOA varied under different Ox(=O_(3)+NO_(2))and relative humidity conditions,emphasizing the limitations of using a constant mass spectrum.Aged biomass burning OA(BBOA)and coal combustion OA(CCOA),previously misattributed as POA,contributed 9.2%(0.43μg m^(−3))and 7.0%(0.33μg m^(−3))to SOA,respectively.Aged BBOA was more prone to forming OS-OA,whereas ON-OA showed higher correlations with aged CCOA,indicating distinct molecular compositions of SOA from different aged POA sources.Compared to aged BBOA,aged CCOA was more subject to conversion during aqueous phase processing.These results suggest that the variations in mass spectra and compositions need to be considered when simulating SOA processes.

文摘Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),assembled periodically by coordinating inorganic metal ions and organic motifs,have arisen widespread curiosity and intensive investigation owing to their tailorable electronic properties and well-defined topological structure.However,the majority of MOFs are intrinsically dielectric or insulative[1]and typically form as 3D bulk or powder crystals,making them incompatible with complementary metal-oxide semiconductor(CMOS)techniques.In recent years,layer-stacked two-dimensional conjugated MOFs(2D c-MOFs),composed of planar conjugated ligands and linkages[2],have demonstrated high in-plane π conjugation and weak out-of-plane van der Waals interactions,due to their long-range electron delocalization over metal ions and ligands[3].As a result,highly tunable band gaps from semiconductor to conductor,modulable porosity from micropore to macropore and versatile processability into conductive 2D thin films with controllable lateral thickness and domain size are presented,rendering charming potential for applications in(opto-)electronics compared with classic 2D metal oxide,chalcogenide and crystalline polymer materials.To improve interfacial charge-transport and precisely tune the charge extraction and band alignment of 2D c-MOFs in(opto-)electronic devices[4],developing highly efficient synthetic methods of 2D c-MOFs is of utmost importance.

文摘Organic electrode materials(OEMs)constitute an attractive class of energy storage materials for potassium-ion batteries,but their application is severely hindered by sluggish kinetics and limited capacities.Herein,inorganic molecules covalent combination strategy is proposed to drive advanced potassium organic batteries.Specifically,molecular selenium,possessing high potential of conductivity and electroactivity,is covalently bonded with organic matrix,that is symmetrical selenophene-annulated dipolyperylene diimide(PDI2-2Se),is designed to verify the feasibility.The inorganic-anchored OEM(PDI2-2Se)can be electrochemically activated to form organic(PDI2 matrix)–inorganic(Se)hybrids during initial cycles.Stateof-the-art 3D tomography reveals that a“mutual-accelerating”effect was realized,that is,the 10-nm Se quantum dots,possessing high conductivity,facilitate charge transfer in organics as well store K^(+)-ions,and organic PDI2 matrix benefits the encapsulation of Se,thereby suppressing shuttle effect and volume fluctuation during cycling,endowing resulting PDI2/Se hybrids with both high-rate capacities and longevity.The concept of inorganicconfigurated OEM through covalent bonds,in principle,can also be extended to design novel functional organic-redox electrodes for other high-performance secondary batteries.

文摘Solar-driven(or light-driven)production of hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))from water(H_(2)O)and molecular oxygen(O_(2))has recently received increasing attention as a green and sustainable alternative to conventional methods.However,the field of photocatalytic H_(2)O_(2)production is still in its infancy,primarily because of limited H_(2)O_(2)production efficiency.Over the past few years,a wide range of inorganic,organic,and organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts have been developed via diverse synthetic and modification strategies to increase the H_(2)O_(2)yield.Among them,organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts have shown higher H_(2)O_(2)production performance than single-component systems;at the same time,the advancements and challenges of these hybrid systems have not been comprehensively reviewed.Therefore,this review summarizes the advantages/limitations,recent progress,and potential challenges of organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts for H_(2)O_(2)production.First,we elucidate the superiority of the photocatalytic H_(2)O_(2)production over the conventional anthraquinone oxidation process.Then,we summarize the advantages and limitations of inorganic,organic,and organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts and discuss in detail the design,synthetic strategies,and photochemical properties of organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts.Finally,this review outlines the challenges and outlook for future research in this emerging area.

文摘Both soil organic carbon (SOC) and iron (Fe) oxide content, among other factors, drive the formation and stability of soil aggregates.However, the mechanism of these drivers in greenhouse soil fertilized with organic fertilizer is not well understood.In a 3-year field experiment, we aimed to investigate the factors which drive the stability of soil aggregates in greenhouse soil.To explore the impact of organic fertilizer on soil aggregates, we established four treatments:no fertilization (CK);inorganic fertilizer (CF);organic fertilizer (OF);and combined application of inorganic and organic fertilizers(COF).The application of organic fertilizer significantly enhanced the stability of aggregates, that is it enhanced the mean weight diameter, geometric mean diameter and aggregate content (%) of>0.25 mm aggregate fractions.OF and COF treatments increased the concentration of SOC, especially the aliphatic-C, aromatic-C and polysaccharide-C components of SOC, particularly in>0.25 mm aggregates.Organic fertilizer application significantly increased the content of free Fe(Fed), reactive Fe (Feo), and non-crystalline Fe in both bulk soil and aggregates.Furthermore, non-crystalline Fe showed a positive correlation with SOC content in both bulk soil and aggregates.Both non-crystalline Fe and SOC were significantly positively correlated with>2 mm mean weight diameter.Overall, we believe that the increase of SOC, aromatic-C, and non-crystal ine Fe concentrations in soil after the application of organic fertilizer is the reason for improving soil aggregate stability.

文摘Integrated perovskite-organic solar cells(IPOSCs) offer a promising hybrid approach that combines the advantages of perovskite and organic solar cells, enabling efficient photon absorption across a broad spectrum with a simplified architecture. However, challenges such as limited charge mobility in organic bulk heterojunction(BHJ) layers, and energy-level mismatch at the perovskite/BHJ interface still sustain. Recent advancements in non-fullerene acceptors(NFAs), interfacial engineering, and emerging materials have improved charge transfer/transport, and overall power conversion efficiency(PCE) of IPOSCs.This review explores key developments in IPOSCs, focusing on low-bandgap materials for near-infrared absorption, energy alignment optimization, and strategies to enhance photocurrent density and device performance. Future innovations in material selection and device architecture will be crucial for further improving the efficiency of IPOSCs, bringing them closer to practical application in next-generation photovoltaic technologies.

文摘Water-soluble organic matter(WSOM)significantly influences the transport of metals and organic contaminants in soils,yet the interaction specifics with antimony(Sb)remain largely unexplored.Antimony is of particular environmental concern due to its toxic properties and harmful effects on ecosystems and human health.Employing a three-step fractionation method with polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP),this study aimed to isolate and analyze humic acids(HA),PVP-non adsorbed fulvic acids(FAA),and PVP-adsorbed fulvic acids(FAB)from WSOM in soil spiked with Sb and incubated for 18 months.These fractions underwent chemical analysis for carbon(C),nitrogen(N),total organic carbon(TOC),and Sb,complemented by FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopic characterization.The study revealed that HA wasmore aliphatic,with Sb predominantly associating with the fulvic acid(FA)fraction,accounting for 97%of Sb in extracts.Specifically,the FAA subfraction held substantial portions of total carbon(TC),total nitrogen(TN),total organic carbon(TOC),and Sb.Correlations between Sb concentrations and TN,TC,and TOC were significant.Extraction methods showed NaOH and Na_(4)P_(2)O_(7) outperformed HCl and deionised water in extracting TC,TN,and TOC,with higher Sb concentrations found in Na_(4)P_(2)O_(7) and NaOH extracts.This underscores the role of Fe/Al-SOM complexes in Sb soil availability.The results revealed that FAA subfraction accounted for 76%,64%and 94%of TN,TOC and Sb,respectively.Therefore,this research highlights the FAA fraction’s central role,predominantly comprising non-humic substances like amines,in the availability of C,N,and Sb in Sb-impacted soils.The findings offer insights for environmental management and remediation strategies.

文摘Understanding long-term effects of agricultural management on soil organic carbon(C)(SOC)dynamics and aggregate stability is essential for crop production sustainability.In this study,effects of crop rotation,cover crop,and nitrogen(N)fertilization on SOC physical and molecular fractions and water-stable aggregate stability were evaluated by characterizing soils of the world's oldest,century-long(>120 years)continuous cotton experiment located in the southern USA.Field treatments included continuous cotton with no winter legume and no mineral N fertilizer(control,CK),continuous cotton with winter legume(CWL),cotton-corn rotation with winter legume(CCWL),cotton-corn rotation with winter legume and mineral N fertilizer(CCWLN),and continuous cotton with mineral N fertilizer(CN).Total organic C(TOC),total nitrogen(TN),acid-hydrolysis C(AHC),and water-extractable organic C(WEOC)in both bulk soils and different aggregate fractions were determined.Soil organic matter(SOM)composition was characterized using pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry(Py-GC/MS).Results showed that CCWL and CCWLN increased bulk soil TOC,AHC,and TN by 150%–165%,300%–315%,and 198%–223%,respectively,as well as aggregate-associated C by 180%–246%over CK.The CWL and CN treatments also increased TOC,AHC,and TN compared to CK but to a lesser degree.The CCWL treatment increased macroaggregates(250–2000μm)by 92%followed by CCWLN by 46%,whereas CWL and CN had limited effects in increasing macroaggregates(by 1%–7%)compared to CK.Moreover,SOM showed more diversified polysaccharide-derived compounds,aliphatic compounds,aromatic compounds,lignin,and phenols in CCWL and CCWLN followed by CWL,CN,and CK.Across different field treatments,aggregate stability indices,mean weight diameter(MWD)and geometric mean diameter(GMD),were positively related to TOC and TN(R2=0.57–0.65),and N-containing compounds and phenols(R^(2)=0.71–0.89),as well as polysaccharide-derived and aliphatic compounds(R^(2)=0.53–0.71).It was concluded that the diversified inputs of SOM composition brought by synergistic interactions between corn rotation and winter legume inclusion were mainly responsible for the observed TOC accumulation and aggregate formation and stability in these subtropical cotton production systems.
文摘The activation of carbon-hydrogen(C-H)bonds is of great scientific importance and offers broad applications in modern organic chemistry[1].In recent years,strategies for C-H bond activation have made notable advances,particularly in the efficient construction of complex molecular architectures.However,most existing C-H activation systems rely on expensive noble metal catalysts,including palladium,rhodium,ruthenium,and iridium.These metals not only come at a high cost but are also often associated with significant toxicity,which further limits their viability and sustainability in industrial applications.

文摘The objective of this incubation study was to comprehensively evaluate the effects of organic fertilizer and biochar,both individually and in combination,on soil respiration dynamics,key enzyme activities and the concentrations of various organic carbon components in degraded mollisol.This study used a completely randomized factorial design with three application rates of organic fertilizer(M0:0,M1:13.64 g·kg^(-1),M2:27.27 g·kg^(-1))and biochar(C0:0,C1:1.36 g·kg^(-1),C2:2.73 g·kg^(-1)),resulting in nine treatments with four replicates each.Soil CO_(2) flux,organic carbon fractions including the total,active and microbial biomass carbon,and enzyme activities(sucrase,catalase and polyphenol oxidase)were measured over 120 days.Results indicated that the factors and their interactions significantly influenced all measured parameters.Soil respiration peaked at day 15,with M1C2 treatment exhibiting a rate of 10.90-fold higher than the control.The concentrations of the total,active and microbial biomass organic carbon reached maximum values on days 60,30 and 80,respectively.Notably,M2C1 treatment yielded the highest total organic carbon(86.35%increase)and microbial biomass carbon(17.84%increase).Enzyme activities were significantly enhanced,with the highest catalase activity observed for M0C2 treatment(10.14%increase).These results demonstrated that the co-application of organic fertilizer and biochar was a effective strategy for improving soil biological health and promoting carbon sequestration in degraded mollisol.The treatment combining a high rate of organic fertilizer with a low rate of biochar(M2C1)was identified as the most promising amendment strategy for fertility restoration.

文摘Organic phosphorus(OP)constitutes an important fraction of total phosphorus in lake sediments,with its mobility being influenced by mineralization and transformation of organic carbon(OC).OP and OC co-exist in various forms in the environment,thus a thorough investigation on the impact of OC fractions on the release of OP in sediments should be comprehensively carried out.This study determined the chemical forms of OP and OC in the sediments over four seasons in Lake Taihu and found temporal and spatial variations in their concentrations.The concentration of total OP and total OC ranged from 133 to 348 mg/kg and 4.77 to 21.19 mg/kg,respectively.Correlation between chemical fractions of OP and OC also revealed that Na OH-extracted OP,and fulvic acid-bound and humic acid-bound OP were positively correlated with humic-OC and hot hydrolysis-OC.These results suggest that the algal-derived OC degradation and mineralization may enhance OP mineralization,converting stable or moderately active OP into active forms or inorganic phosphorus under cyanobacterial bloom.This study provides insight and guiding support for investigating the impact of organic matter components on the transformation of OP after cyanobacterial degradation in eutrophic lakes.

文摘Doping plays a pivotal role in enhancing the performance of organic semiconductors(OSCs)for advanced optoelectronic and thermoelectric applications.In this study,we systematically investigated the doping performance and applicability of the ionic dopant 4-isopropyl-4′-methyldiphenyliodonium tetrakis(penta-fluorophenyl-borate)(DPI-TPFB)as a p-dopant for OSCs.Using the p-type OSC PBBT-2T as a model system,we demonstrated that DPI-TPFB shows significant doping effect,as confirmed by ESR spectra,ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared(UV-vis-NIR)absorption,and work function analysis,and enhances the electronic conductivity of PBBT-2T films by over four orders of magnitude.Furthermore,DPI-TPFB exhibited broad doping applicability,effectively doping various p-type OSCs and even imparting p-type characteristics to the n-type OSC N2200,transforming its intrinsic n-type behavior into p-type.The application of DPI-TPFB-doped PBBT-2T films in organic thermoelectric devices(OTEs)was also explored,achieving a power factor of approximately 10μW·m^(-1)·K^(-2).These findings highlight the potential of DPI-TPFB as a versatile and efficient dopant for integration into organic optoelectronic and thermoelectric devices.

文摘Straw return is the main practice used to increase soil organic matter(SOM)in agricultural ecosystems.To increase the efficiency of straw conversion to SOM,a large number of microbial inoculants have been developed.However,their effects are poor because of the complex water and temperature conditions,especially under sodic conditions.Small molecules can rapidly shift soil microbial communities and improve their ability to transform exogenous organic matter into SOM,providing a new direction for promoting high-efficiency straw conversion into SOM.In this study,we conducted a^(13)C-labeled straw degradation experiment using small molecules derived from lignin(LSMs)and humus(HSMs)as activators,investigating their effects on the microbial communities and formation of newly formed mineral-associated(^(13)C-MAOM)and particulate(^(13)C-POM)organic matter from^(13)C-labeled straw in both sodic and non-sodic soils.The^(13)C-labeled straw was mainly converted into^(13)C-MAOM,accounting for 73.97%–92.67%of the newly formed SOM.Biopolymer-derived small molecules decreased the exchangeable sodium percentage(ESP),but increased contents of^(13)C-MAOM and^(13)C-POM by shifting microbial communities,strengthening microbial cross-trophic interactions,enhancing enzyme activities,and increasing microbial residues in both soils.Addition of HSMs had greater impacts on^(13)C-MAOM formation than LSM addition.The^(13)C-MAOM and^(13)C-POM formation negatively correlated with ESP,but positively correlated with microbial cross-trophic interactions and enzyme activities in both soils.Our results suggest that biopolymer-derived small molecules promote^(13)C-MAOM and^(13)C-POM formation associated with microbial cross-trophic interactions between protistan predators and primary decomposers.Our study provides scientific support for future attempts to stimulate microbial cross-trophic interactions for boosting SOM accumulation under stressed conditions.

文摘Biochar-derived dissolved organic matter(BCDOM),an essential component of biochar,plays a vital role in regulating the physicochemical and biological properties of soils during biochar application.However,the influence of BCDOM on soil organisms has not been clearly explained.Hence,this review aims to discuss the factors affecting BCDOM and its interaction with soil substances including organic pollutants,heavy metals,and microorganisms.Results displayed that the quantity of BCDOM ranges from 0.17 to 37.03 mg/g,which was influenced by feedstock,preparation methods of biochar,and extraction methods.With the decrease in lignin content of feedstocks,carbonization temperature,and acidity of extraction solution,the content of BCDOM increased.Through complexation and adsorption,protein-like components in BCDOM interact with heavy metals,promoting the adsorption and immobilization of heavy metals onto biochar.Furthermore,BCDOM enhances the adsorption of organic pollutants by biochar throughπ−πinteractions,hydrogen bonding,and redox processes.More importantly,BCDOM promotes plant growth by enhancing microbial activities,providing nutrients,and improving soil properties.However,the transport and fate of BCDOM in soil have not been well studied,and more researches are needed to explore the interaction mechanisms between BCDOM and soil organisms.

文摘We conducted a comprehensive analysis of seasonal and long-term variations in organic carbon(OC),elemental carbon(EC),primary organic carbon(POC),and secondary organic carbon(SOC)among total suspended particles on Huaniao Island,China,from 2011 to 2020.The highest OC and EC concentrations were observed in 2014(OC,4.13μg/m^(3))and 2013(EC,1.21μg/m^(3)),respectively;for both,the lowest concentrations occurred in 2017(OC,1.56μg/m^(3);EC,0.69μg/m^(3)).OC and EC exhibited seasonal variations,such that the highest and lowest values for both occurred in winter and summer,respectively;particularly high concentrations were observed in the winter of 2014 on Huaniao Island.By 2020,winter OC and EC concentrations had decreased by 43%and 36%,whereas autumn OC and EC concentrations increased by 38%and 160%compared with 2014.In terms of carbon components,the proportions of OC4 and EC1 significantly declined,whereas the proportions of OC3 and OC2 increased,during the study period.Higher POC and SOC concentrations were mainly observed during the autumn–winter and winter–spring transition periods.POC was most strongly correlated with OC2,followed by OC4 and EC1.SOC was strongly correlated with OC3,especially in winter.These findings highlight the characteristics of temporal variations in individual carbon components,as well as possible associations with POC and SOC.

文摘The rhenium-osmium(Re-Os)isotope system is a powerful tool for dating organic-rich sedimentary rocks,yet the mechanisms of Re and Os uptake and their fractionation in different types of organic matter remain poorly understood.Here,we investigate the role of terrestrial organic matter(e.g.,wood of the species Taxodium distichum and charcoal generated from the same species in the laboratory)in Re and Os enrichment and isotope fractionation through laboratory experiments.The results show that charcoal has a significantly higher capacity to uptake both Re(68-77 times greater)and Os(1.7-2.2 times higher)compared to wood,with charcoal preferentially accumulating Re over Os,leading to higher^(187)Re/^(188)Os ratios.These findings highlight the important contribution of terrestrial organic matter,particularly charcoal,to Re and Os concentrations and isotope fractionation in shales,and the importance of organic matter type for chelating Re and Os as previously discussed.Furthermore,we discuss the potential of using Re to track organic carbon weathering,noting that the coupled release of Re and organic carbon during weathering provides new insights into carbon cycling processes.

文摘All-small-molecule organic solar cells(ASM-OSCs)have garnered widespread attention in recent years.However,their power conversion efficiencies(PCEs)still fall behind those of polymer donor-based devices,primarily due to the challenge of realizing optimized morphology in ASM-OSCs.Here,a highly crystalline small molecule donor(SMD)named ZW2 is synthesized and incorporated into the Zn PTSEH:6TIC system.The addition of ZW2 synergistically regulates the morphology,molecular crystallinity,and molecular packing of blends,facilitating efficient charge transport and suppressing charge recombination.Consequently,an impressive PCE of 16.30%was delivered in the ternary device.This work highlights the significance of employing a highly crystalline SMD as the third component in tuning the crystallinity and morphology of blends,providing feasibility for achieving high-efficiency ASM-OSCs.
