However, the application of carbonaceous materials in PIB anodes is hindered by sluggish kinetics and large volume expansion. Herein, N/S co-doped carbon nanocapsule (NSCN) is constructed for superior K+ storage. The NSCN possesses 3D nanocapsule framework with abundant meso/macropores, which guarantees structural robustness and accelerates ions/electrons transportation. The high-level N/S co-doping in carbon matrix not only generates ample defects and active sites for K+ adsorption, but also expands interlayer distance for facile K+ intercalation/deintercalation. As a result, the NSCN electrode delivers a high reversible capacity (408 mAh g^(−1) at 0.05 A g^(−1)), outstanding rate capability (149 mAh g^(−1) at 5 A g^(−1)) and favorable cycle stability (150m Ah g^(−1) at 2 A g^(−1) after 2000 cycles). Ex situ TEM, Raman and XPS measurements demonstrate the excellent stability and reversibility of NSCN electrode during potassiation/depotassiation process. This work provides inspiration for the optimization of energy storage materials by structure and doping engineering.展开更多

At the 6 K temperature in the visible spectral range 2 bands were observed： a band in the excitonic spectral region and a band of self-activated luminescence. It was shown that co-doping of zinc selenide crystals with the chromium and ytterbium led to the combination of the impurities influence on the photoluminescent properties. At the liquid helium temperature in the middle infrared range of the spectra of the ytterbium and chromium co-doped crystal a band with the maximum localized at 1.7μm was observed, which was overlapped with a complex band in the middle-IR spectral range, characteristic for the chromium doped ZnSe crystals. On the basis of obtained data an interaction mechanism of the chromium and ytterbium co-doping impurities was proposed. Guided by the existent model of the ytterbium ion incorporation in the selenide sublattice of the ZnSe crystals, an assumption about stabilization of single charged chromium ions in the zinc sublattice crystal nodes, by means of formation of the local charge compensating clusters, was made. It was assumed that the resonant energy transfer from one chromium ion to another,which led to the concentration quenching of the IR emission in the ZnSe：Cr PL spectra, would lead to the broadening of the IR emission in the spectra of ytterbium and chromium co-doped zinc selenide crystals.g展开更多

When samples were calcined in a relatively low temperature below 1100 °C, secondary phases（α-Fe_2O_3） could be identified. Therefore, in order to acquire pure and better crystallinity, the suitable calcining temperature of powders was selected at 1200 °C. It was also found that all the samples consisting of ferrite phases of typical spinel cubic structure and average crystallite sizes between 31.5 and 38.2 nm were obtained after calcining at 1200 oC for 4 h. The lattice parameters increased almost linearly with increasing Sm content. A dense microstructure was obtained after sintering at 1250 °C for 4 h. Through the analysis of magnetic properties, hysteresis loops for all the samples were narrow with low values of coercivity and retentivity, indicating the paramagnetic nature of these samples. And saturation magnetization Ms strongly depended on the type of additive to reach a maximum of 47.99 emu/g for x=0.015, which showed a great promise for hyperthermia applications.展开更多

文摘The p-type doping efficiency of 4 H silicon carbide(4 H-SiC)is rather low due to the large ionization energies of p-type dopants.Such an issue impedes the exploration of the full advantage of 4 H-SiC for semiconductor devices.In this study,we show that co-doping group-IVB elements effectively decreases the ionization energy of the most widely used p-type dopant,i.e.,aluminum(Al),through the defect-level repulsion between the energy levels of group-IVB elements and that of Al in 4 H-SiC.Among group-IVB elements Ti has the most prominent effectiveness.Ti decreases the ionization energy of Al by nearly 50%,leading to a value as low as~0.13 eV.As a result,the ionization rate of Al with Ti co-doping is up to~5 times larger than that without co-doping at room temperature when the doping concentration is up to 10^(18)cm^(-3).This work may encourage the experimental co-doping of group-IVB elements such as Ti and Al to significantly improve the p-type doping efficiency of 4 H-SiC.

文摘We present an efficient strategy,that is the co-substitution of Fe^(3+)and Ta^(5+)ions with large radius for Ti^(4+)ion,to enhance energy storage performance of Ba_(2)Bi_(4)Ti_(5)O_(18) film.For the films co-doped with Fe^(3+)and Ta^(5+)ions,the maximum polarization under the same external electric field is improved because the radius of Fe^(3+)and Ta^(5+)ions is larger than that of Ti^(4+)ion.Moreover,due to the composition and chemical disorder,the relaxor properties are also slightly improved,which can not be achieved by the film doped with Fe^(3+)ions only.What is more,for the films doped with Fe^(3+)ion only,the leakage current density increases greatly due to the charge imbalance,resulting in a significant decrease in breakdown strength.It is worth mentioning that the breakdown strength of Fe^(3+)and Ta^(5+)ions co-doped film does not decrease due to the charge balance.Another important point is the recoverable energy storage density of the films co-doped with Fe^(3+)and Ta^(5+)ions has been greatly improved based on the fact that the maximum external electric field does not decrease and the maximum polarization under the same external electric field increases.On top of that,the hysteresis of the polarization has also been improved.Finally,the co-doped films with Fe^(3+)and Ta^(5+)ions have good frequency and temperature stability.

文摘NH_(3)-SCR(SCR:Selective catalytic reduction)is an effective technology for the de-NO_(x)process from both mobile and stationary pollution sources,and the most commonly used catalysts are the vanadia-based catalysts.An innovative V_(2)O_(5)-CeO_(2)/TaTiO_(x)catalyst for NO_(x)removal was prepared in this study.The influences of Ce and Ta in the V_(2)O_(5)-CeO_(2)/TaTiO_(x)catalyst on the SCR performance and physicochemical properties were investigated.The V_(2)O_(5)-CeO_(2)/TaTiO_(x)catalyst not only exhibited excellent SCR activity in a wide temperature window,but also presented strong resistance to H_(2)Oand SO_(2)at 275◦C.A series of characterizationmethods was used to study the catalysts,including H2-temperature programmed reduction,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,NH_(3)-temperature programmed desorption,etc.It was discovered that a synergistic effect existed between Ce and Ta species.The introduction of Ce and Ta enlarged the specific surface area,increased the amount of acid sites and the ratio of Ce^(3+),(V^(3+)+V^(4+))and Oα,and strengthened the redox capability which were related to synergistic effect between Ce and Ta species,significantly improving the NH_(3)-SCR activity.

文摘In this study,we aim to clarify the luminescence and scintillation performance of 0.2 at%Pr^(3+)-doped LuYAG scintillators with either zirconium or hafnium co-doping obtained using the micro-pulling-down(μ-PD)method.Under radiation excitation,scintillation properties such as light yield,decay time,and afterglow level were measured and compared to non-co-doped LuYAG:Pr^(3+).The positive effect of Zr and Hf co-doping is to significantly shorten the scintillation time response.The negative effect is the decrease of scintillation yield and increase of afterglow.We propose that the positively charged defects induced by Zr/Hf co-doping are responsible for the spatial correlated traps around Pr centers causing the shortened scintillation decay via non-radiative recombination processes,and the deep traps as well for the prolonged afterglow.

文摘The development of high-performance cathode materials is critical to the practical application of sodiumion batteries(SIBs).O3-type NaCrO_(2)(NCO)is one of the most competitive cathodes,but it suffers from rapid capacity decay caused by severe irreversible structural evolution.An Mg-Ti co-doped Na_(0.99)Cr_(0.95)Mg_(0.02)Ti_(0.03)O_(2)(NCO-MT)cathode material is designed and synthesized via a facile solid-state reaction to enhance the cyclability of NCO.A capacity retention of 71.6%after 2500 cycles with the capacity fade rate of 0.011%per cycle is achieved for NCO-MT at 5 C,which is attributed to the highly reversible crystal structure during cycling.Our findings offer a novel insight into the high-performance O3-type layered cathode materials for SIBs and are beneficial to promote the development of high-rate SIBs.
文摘Modulating the electronic structure of a photocatalyst and constructing spatially separated redox sites are key strategies for achieving the photocatalytic dual-channel generation of H_(2)O_(2).In this study,a graphene-modified non-compensated Cu/N-co-doped titanium dioxide(Cu-N-TiO_(2)/rGO)photocatalyst was designed for the efficient synthesis of H_(2)O_(2) via a dual-channel pathway.Precise modulation of the TiO_(2) conduction band position was achieved through the synergistic coupling of Cu 3d orbitals hybridized with Ti 3d orbitals and hybridization of N 2p orbitals with O 2p orbitals.This approach significantly improved the utilization of sunlight while satisfying the redox potential requirements.Cu doping not only promoted the formation of oxygen vacancies but also reduced the formation of Ti^(3+)ions,the photogenerated charge recombination centers.The non-compensated doping of N effectively increased the solubility of Cu^(2+)ions in the titanium dioxide lattice,enhanced the adsorption of hydroxyl radical intermediates,and created conditions for the subsequent hydroxyl radical combinations promoting the generation of H_(2)O_(2).In addition,the introduction of highly conductive graphene improved the interfacial carrier separation efficiency while realizing the spatial separation of redox sites,creating conditions for dual-channel reactions.The experimental results showed that the H_(2)O_(2) yield of Cu-N-TiO_(2)/rGO under simulated sunlight reached 1266.7μmol/L,which was 25.2 times higher than that of pristine TiO_(2).This study elucidated the synergistic mechanism of the energy band structure modulation and interfacial optimization,which provided a new idea for the design of dual-channel H_(2)O_(2) production photocatalysts.

文摘S and Co co-doped carbon catalysts were prepared via pyrolysis of MOF-71 and thiourea mixtures at 800℃at a mass ratio of MOF-71 to thiourea of 1:0.1 to effectively activate peroxymonosulfate(PMS)for methylene blue(MB)degradation.The effects of two different mixing routes were identified on the MB degradation performance.Particularly,the catalyst obtained by the alcohol solvent evaporation(MOF-AEP)mixing route could degrade 95.60%MB(50 mg/L)within 4 min(degradation rate:K=0.78 min^(-1)),which was faster than that derived from the direct grinding method(MOF-DGP,80.97%,K=0.39 min^(-1)).X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed that the Co-S content of MOF-AEP(43.39at%)was less than that of MOF-DGP(54.73at%),and the proportion of C-S-C in MOF-AEP(13.56at%)was higher than that of MOF-DGP(10.67at%).Density functional theory calculations revealed that the adsorption energy of Co for PMS was -2.94 eV when sulfur was doped as C-S-C on the carbon skeleton,which was higher than that when sulfur was doped next to cobalt in the form of Co-S bond(-2.86 eV).Thus,the C-S-C sites might provide more contributions to activate PMS compared with Co-S.Furthermore,the degradation parameters,including pH and MOF-AEP dosage,were investigated.Finally,radical quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR)measurements revealed that ^(1)O_(2)might be the primary catalytic species,whereas·O~(2-)might be the secondary one in degrading MB.

文摘Carbonaceous materials have drawn much attention in potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) due to their low price and superior physicochemical properties. However, the application of carbonaceous materials in PIB anodes is hindered by sluggish kinetics and large volume expansion. Herein, N/S co-doped carbon nanocapsule (NSCN) is constructed for superior K+ storage. The NSCN possesses 3D nanocapsule framework with abundant meso/macropores, which guarantees structural robustness and accelerates ions/electrons transportation. The high-level N/S co-doping in carbon matrix not only generates ample defects and active sites for K+ adsorption, but also expands interlayer distance for facile K+ intercalation/deintercalation. As a result, the NSCN electrode delivers a high reversible capacity (408 mAh g^(−1) at 0.05 A g^(−1)), outstanding rate capability (149 mAh g^(−1) at 5 A g^(−1)) and favorable cycle stability (150m Ah g^(−1) at 2 A g^(−1) after 2000 cycles). Ex situ TEM, Raman and XPS measurements demonstrate the excellent stability and reversibility of NSCN electrode during potassiation/depotassiation process. This work provides inspiration for the optimization of energy storage materials by structure and doping engineering.

文摘Cu-Mn co-doped CeO_(2) photocatalyst was successfully synthesized by the sol-gel method to assess its capability in degrading tetracycline.XRD and TEM results showed that Cu and Mn were successfully co-doped into CeO_(2) without forming heterostructure,XPS and photoelectrochemical results revealed that Mn ions doping amplified the generation of photo-induced charge carriers,while Cu ions doping significantly facilitated the interfacial charge transfer process.Notably,the optimized Cu3Mn2CeO_(2) nanoparticles exhibited the highest TC removal efficiency,achieved a rate of 78.18%and maintained a stable cycling performance.
文摘The geometric structure, band structure and density of states of pure, Ag-doped, N-doped, and N-Ag codoped wurtzite ZnO have been investigated by the first-principles ultra-soft pseudopotential method based on the density functional theory.

文摘Although CoO is a promising electrode material for supercapacitors due to its high theoretical capacitance,the practical applications still suffering from inferior electrochemical activity owing to its low electrical conductivity,poor structural stability and inefficient nanostructure.Herein,we report a novel Cu0/Cu+co-doped CoO composite with adjustable metallic Cu0 and ion Cu+via a facile strategy.Through interior(Cu+)and exterior(Cu0)decoration of CoO,the electrochemical performance of CoO electrode has been significantly improved due to both the beneficial flower-like nanostructure and the synergetic effect of Cu0/Cu+co-doping,which results in a significantly enhanced specific capacitance(695 F g^(-1) at 1 A g^(-1))and high cyclic stability(93.4%retention over 10,000 cycles)than pristine CoO.Furthermore,this co-doping strategy is also applicable to other transition metal oxide(NiO)with enhanced electrochemical performance.In addition,an asymmetric hybrid supercapacitor was assembled using the Cu0/Cu+co-doped CoO electrode and active carbon,which delivers a remarkable maximal energy density(35 Wh kg^(-1)),exceptional power density(16 kW kg^(-1))and ultralong cycle life(91.5%retention over 10,000 cycles).Theoretical calculations further verify that the co-doping of Cu^(0)/Cu^(+)can tune the electronic structure of CoO and improve the conductivity and electron transport.This study demonstrates a facile and favorable strategy to enhance the electrochemical performance of transition metal oxide electrode materials.

文摘The luminescent properties of ZnSe, ZnSe：Cr（0.05 at.% Cr）, ZnSe：Yb（0.03 at.% Yb） and ZnSe：Cr：Yb（0.05 at.% Cr, 0.05 at.% Yb） crystals, doped during the growth process by the chemical vapor transport method, were studied within the temperature interval of 6–300 K. At the 6 K temperature in the visible spectral range 2 bands were observed： a band in the excitonic spectral region and a band of self-activated luminescence. It was shown that co-doping of zinc selenide crystals with the chromium and ytterbium led to the combination of the impurities influence on the photoluminescent properties. At the liquid helium temperature in the middle infrared range of the spectra of the ytterbium and chromium co-doped crystal a band with the maximum localized at 1.7μm was observed, which was overlapped with a complex band in the middle-IR spectral range, characteristic for the chromium doped ZnSe crystals. On the basis of obtained data an interaction mechanism of the chromium and ytterbium co-doping impurities was proposed. Guided by the existent model of the ytterbium ion incorporation in the selenide sublattice of the ZnSe crystals, an assumption about stabilization of single charged chromium ions in the zinc sublattice crystal nodes, by means of formation of the local charge compensating clusters, was made. It was assumed that the resonant energy transfer from one chromium ion to another,which led to the concentration quenching of the IR emission in the ZnSe：Cr PL spectra, would lead to the broadening of the IR emission in the spectra of ytterbium and chromium co-doped zinc selenide crystals.g

文摘Layered LiCoO_(2)(LCO)acts as a dominant cathode material for lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)in 3C products because of its high compacted density and volumetric energy density.Although improving the high cutoff voltage is an effective strategy to increase its capacity,such behavior would trigger rapid capacity decay due to the surface or/and structure degradation.Herein,we propose a bi-functional surface strategy involving constructing a robust spinel-like phase coating layer with great integrity and compatibility to LiCoO_(2) and modulating crystal lattice by anion and cation gradient co-doping at the subsurface.As a result,the modified LiCoO_(2)(AFM-LCO)shows a capacity retention of 80.9%after 500 cycles between 3.0and 4.6 V.The Al,F,Mg enriched spinel-like phase coating layer serves as a robust physical barrier to effectively inhibit the undesired side reactions between the electrolyte and the cathode.Meanwhile,the Al,F,Mg gradient co-doping significantly enhances the surficial structure stability,suppresses Co dissolution and oxygen release,providing a stable path for Li-ions mobility all through the long-term cycles.Thus,the surface bi-functional strategy is an effective method to synergistically improve the electrochemical performances of LCO at a high cut-off voltage of 4.6 V.

文摘Mn-Zn ferrites doped with different contents of Sm^（3＋） and Gd^（3＋） ions were prepared by sol-gel auto-combustion method and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy（FTIR）, thermogravimetric analysis（TG）, X-ray diffraction（XRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM） and vibrating sample magnetometer（VSM）. When samples were calcined in a relatively low temperature below 1100 °C, secondary phases（α-Fe_2O_3） could be identified. Therefore, in order to acquire pure and better crystallinity, the suitable calcining temperature of powders was selected at 1200 °C. It was also found that all the samples consisting of ferrite phases of typical spinel cubic structure and average crystallite sizes between 31.5 and 38.2 nm were obtained after calcining at 1200 oC for 4 h. The lattice parameters increased almost linearly with increasing Sm content. A dense microstructure was obtained after sintering at 1250 °C for 4 h. Through the analysis of magnetic properties, hysteresis loops for all the samples were narrow with low values of coercivity and retentivity, indicating the paramagnetic nature of these samples. And saturation magnetization Ms strongly depended on the type of additive to reach a maximum of 47.99 emu/g for x=0.015, which showed a great promise for hyperthermia applications.

文摘Doping engineering is an effective strategy for graphitic carbon nitride(g-C_(3)N_(4))to improve its photocat-alytic hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)performance.In this work,a novel nitrogen and sulfur co-doped g-C_(3)N_(4)(N,S-g-C_(3)N_(4))is elaborately designed on the basis of theoretical predictions of first-principle density functional theory(DFT).The calculated Gibbs free energy of adsorbed hydrogen(ΔGH∗)for N,S-g-C_(3)N_(4) at the N-doping active sites is extremely close to zero(0.01 eV).Inspired by the theoretical predictions,the N,S-g-C_(3)N_(4) is successfully fabricated through ammonia-rich pyrolysis synthesis strategy,in which ammonia is in-situ obtained by pyrolyzing melamine.Subsequent characterizations indicate that the N,S-g-C_(3)N_(4) possesses high specific surface area,outstanding light utilization,good hydrophilicity,and efficient carrier transfer efficiency.Consequently,the N,S-g-C_(3)N_(4) displays an extremely high H2 evolution rate of 8269.9μmol g−1 h−1,achieves an apparent quantum efficiency(AQE)of 3.24%,and also possesses outsatnding durability.Theoretical calculations further demonstrate that N and S dopants can not only introduce doping energy level to reduce the band gap,but also induce charge redistribution to facilitate hydrogen adsorption,thus promoting the photocatalytic HER process.Moreover,femtosecond transient absorption(fs-TA)spectroscopy further corroborates the efficient photogenerated carrier transport of N,S-g-C_(3)N_(4).This research highlights a promising and reliable strategy to achieve superior photocatalytic activity,and exhibits significant guidance for precise designing high-efficiency photocatalysts.

文摘It is well known that Tb substitution for(Pr,Nd)in(Pr,Nd)-Fe-B based sintered magnetic materials is an effective way to increase intrinsic coercivity,but it is not quite clear whether the increment depends on the different matrix phases with various doping ingredient or not,which is essential to develop high quality magnets with high coercivity more efficiently and effectively with economic consumption of expensive Tb and other costly heavy rare earths.In this paper,we investigated the efficiency of Tb substitution for magnetic property in(Pr,Nd)-Fe-B sintered permanent magnets by co-doping Ga and Cu elements.It is shown that Ga and Cu co-doping can effectively improve the efficiency of Tb substitution to increase the thermal stability and the coercivity.The intrinsic coercivity increases up to 549 and 987 kA/m respectively by 1.5 wt%and 3.0 wt%Tb substitution in Ga and Cu co-doped magnets while the intrinsic coercivity increases up to only 334 and 613 kA/m respectively by the same amounts of Tb substitution in non-Ga and low-Cu magnets.In other words,it demonstrates that there is about 329-366 kA/m linear equivalent enhancement of intrinsic coercivity by 1.0 wt%Tb substitution for(Pr,Nd)in Ga and Cu co-doped magnets.The temperature coefficients of both intrinsic coercivityβand remanenceαat 20-150℃by 3.0 wt%Tb substitution for the magnets with Ga and Cu co-doping are-0.47%/K and-0.109%/K respectively,and in contrast those values are-0.52%/K and 0.116%/K respectively for the non-Ga and low-Cu magnets.It is the principal reason for more efficient enhancement of magnetic property by Tb substitution in the Ga and Cu co-doped magnets in which Tb atoms are expelled from triple junction phases(TJPs)to penetrate into the grain boundary phases(GB phases)and thus modify the grain boundary.It is prospected that the efficiency of Tb substitution would rely on different matrix phases with various doping constituents.

文摘In this paper,a Sr^2+and Dy^3+co-doped γ-Ce2S3 red pigment was synthesized via a combination of coprecipitation and sulfurization processes.Mixed oxide was prepared by presintering the coprecipitates,(Ce,Sr,Dy)CO3,followed by high-temperature sulfurization under a CS2 atmosphere.The effects of the sulfurization temperature,time,and doped proportion on the phase composition,color performance and temperature stability of γ-Ce2S3 were systematically studied.The results show that a stable γ-Ce2S3 red pigment can be obtained through Sr^2+and Dy^3+co-doping at 730℃ for 200 min.The diffraction peaks of all the samples shift to higher 2θ values with increasing doping proportion,indicating that part of the Dy^3+species enter the lattice and form a solid solution.The band gap of the samples remains practically constant at 2.01-2.04 eV,which causes their red color.The best red-color quality(L*=37.13,a*=34.77,b*=29.44) is achieved when the pigment has a Dy^3+/Ce^3+molar ratio of 0.15,and the material maintains its excellent red color(L*=31.49 a*=30.94 b*=25.33) after being heated at 410℃ for 30 min.
