Herein, nitrogen doped carbon silicon matrix composite with atomically dispersed Co sites(Si/Co-N-C) is obtained via the design of the frame structure loaded with nano-components and the multi-element hybrid strategy. Co atoms are uniformly fixed to the N-C frame and tightly packed with nanoscale silicon particles as an activation and protection building block. The mechanism of the N-C framework of loaded metal Co in the Si alloying process is revealed by electrochemical kinetic analysis and ex situ characterization tests.Impressively, the nitrogen-doped Co site activates the intercalation of the outer carbon matrix to supplement the additional capacity. The Co nanoparticles with high conductivity and support enhance the conductivity and structural stability of the composite, accelerating the Li^(+)/Na^(+) diffusion kinetics. Density functional theory(DFT) calculation confirms that the hetero-structure Si/Co-N-C adjusts the electronic structure to obtain good lithium-ion adsorption energy, reduces the Li^(+)/Na^(+) migration energy barrier.This work provides meaningful guidance for the development of high-performance metal/non-metal modified anode materials.展开更多

文摘For several decades,the promise of implementing of lithium(Li)metal anodes for Li batteries has been a"holy grail"for researchers.Herein,we have proposed a facile design of a MOF-derived Co_(3)O_(4)nanoparticles modified nickel foam,i.e.,Co_(3)O_(4)-NF,as a 3D host to achieve a uniform infusion of the molten Li.The molten Li was uniformly absorbed on the Co_(3)O_(4)-NF host only in 10 s due to its high Li lithiophilicity.The obtained Li-Co_(3)O_(4)-NF composite electrode shows high cycling stability in symmetric cells with low voltage hysteresis even at a high current density of 5 mA/cm2.The full cells of Li-Co_(3)O_(4)-NF/LiFePO_(4)can cycle for more than 500 cycles at 2C without obvious capacity decay.SEM after cycling and in situ optical microscope results suggest that the unique 3D host structure of the Li-Co_(3)O_(4)-NF anode plays key roles on suppressing the dendrite growth and decreasing the local current inhomogeneity.We believe this work might provide a new strategy for fabricating dendrite-free Li metal anodes and facilitate practical applications in Li batteries.

文摘Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),which are self-assembled porous coordination materials,have garnered considerable attention in the fields of optoelectronics,photovoltaic,photochemistry,and photocatalysis due to their diverse structures and excellent tunability.However,the performance of MOF-based optoelectronic applications currently falls short of the industry benchmark.To enhance the performance of MOF materials,it is imperative to undertake comprehensive investigations aimed at gaining a deeper understanding of photophysics and sequentially optimizing properties related to photocarrier transport,recombination,interaction,and transfer.By utilizing femtosecond laser pulses to excite MOFs,time-resolved optical spectroscopy offers a means to observe and characterize these ultrafast microscopic processes.This approach adds the time coordinate as a novel dimension for comprehending the interaction between light and MOFs.Accordingly,this review provides a comprehensive overview of the recent advancements in the photophysics of MOFs and additionally outlines potential avenues for exploring the time domain in the investigation of MOFs.
文摘Overcoming the poor physicochemical properties of pure alginate gel and the inherent shortcomings of pure metal-organic framework(MOF),alginate/MOF composite gel has captured the interest of many researchers as a tunable platform with high stability,controllable pore structure,and enhanced biological activity.Interestingly,different fromthe traditional organic or inorganic nanofillers physically trapped or chemically linked within neTtworks,MOFs crystals can not only be dispersed by crosslinking polymerization,but also support self-assembly in-situ under the help of chelating cations with alginate.The latter is influenced by multiple factors and may involve some complex mechanisms of action,which is also a topic discussed deeply in this article while summarizing different preparation routes.Furthermore,various physical and chemical levels of improvement strategies and availablemacroforms are summarized oriented towards obtaining composite gel with ideal performance.Finally,the application status of this composite system in drug delivery,wound healing and other biomedical fields is further discussed.And the current limitations and future development directions are shed light simultaneously,which may provide guidance for the vigorous development of these composite systems.

文摘Mercury(Hg)ions can lead to a serious impact on the environment;therefore,it was necessary to find an effective method for absorbing these toxic Hg ions.Here,the adsorbent(Zn-AHMT)was synthesized from zinc nitrate and 4-amino 3-hydrazine-5 mercapto-1,2,4-triazole(AHMT)by one-step method and,characterized the microstruc-ture and absorption performance by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),field emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),Brunauer-Emmett Teller(BET),Thermal Gravimetric Analyzer(TGA)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS).Through a plethora of measurements,we found that the maximum adsorption capacity was 802.8 mg/g when the optimal pH of Zn-AHMT was 3.0.The isothermal and kinetic experiments confirm that the reaction process of Zn-AHMT was chemisorption,while the adsorption process conforms to the Hill model and pseudo second order kinetic model.Thermodynamic experiments showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic.Selective experiments were performed in the simulated wastewater containing Mn,Mg,Cr,Al,Co,Ni,Hg ions.Our results showed that the Zn-AHMT has a stronger affinity for Hg ions.The removal rate of Zn-AHMT remained above 98%,indicating that the Zn-AHMT had a good stability validated by three adsorption-desorption repeatable tests.According to the XPS results,the adsorption reaction of Zn-AHMT was mainly attributed to the chelation and ion exchange.This was further explained by both density functional theory(DFT)calculation and frontier molecular orbital theory.We therefore propose the adsorption mechanism of Zn-AHMT.The adsorption reaction facilitates via the synergistic action of S and N atoms.Moreover,the bonding between the adsorbent and the N atom has been proved to be more stable.Our study demonstrated that Zn-AHMT had a promising application prospect in mercury removal.

文摘The construction of CoeMn mixed-metal oxide catalysts derived from bimetallic metaleorganic frameworks(MOFs)has great significance for catalytic destruction of toluene.Hence,a series of Co_(a)Mn_(b)O_(x)-MOFs with different physicochemical properties were successfully synthesized via pyrolysis of CoeMn bimetallic MOFs.Attributing to the higher specific surface area,more active sites(Co^(3+)and Mn^(3+)),stronger reducibility,and abundant defect sites,the as-prepared Co_(1)Mn_(1)O_(x)-MOFs displayed an optimal catalytic performance,especially the excellent water vapor resistance.The result of the in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy demonstrated that toluene can be degraded at relatively low temperatures(<100℃).Benzyl alcohol,benzaldehyde,benzoic acid,and maleic anhydride were the main intermediate products in toluene degradation process.This work reveals the value of bimetallic MOFs derived Co-Mn oxides for toluene oxidation and presents a novel avenue for designing mixed-metal oxide catalysts with potential applications in volatile organic compounds(VOCs)catalytic oxidation.
