The corrosion behavior of Zn?Ni alloys in synthetic sea water (3.5% NaCl, mass fraction) was studied using Tafel plot and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The corrosion resistance of the investigated alloys with various Ni contents (0.5%?10%, mass fraction) was compared with that of Zn. The results show that the corrosion resistance of Zn?Ni alloys (except 0.5% Ni) is superior to that of Zn. The 10% Ni gives the highest corrosion resistance due to the formation ofγ-Zn3Ni withγ-ZnNi phases in the alloy. In the case of alloy I (0.5% Ni), it exhibits a higher corrosion rate (less corrosion resistance) than Zn.展开更多

Depending on metal ion–binding properties, vital differences in building complex were observed. The present study shows that in M(TTA) complexes, metal ions are coordinated to the carboxyl groups, but in M(Asp) some metal ions are able to build macrochelate over amine group. Hence, the following intermolecular and as a result independent concentration equilibrium between an open–isomer M(Asp)op and a closed–isomer M(Asp)cl, has to be considered cl op. The amounts are reported. The results mentioned above demonstrate that for some M(Asp) complexes the stability constants is also largely determined by the affinity of metal ions for amine group. This leads to a kind of selectivity of metal ions and transfer them via building complexes with the aspartate. The result of this effect is a higher dosage-absorption of minerals in body. Based on the sort of metal ions, the drug-therapy can be different. For heavy metal ions this building complex helps the absorption and filtration of the blood plasma, and consequently the excursion of heavy metal ions takes place. This is an important method in microdialysis. Other metal ions such as the complexes can be considered as mineral carriers. These complexes in certain conditions (PH–range) can release the minerals in body.展开更多

Through electrochemical testing and material characterizations, higher calcination temperatures increase the electrostatic repulsion between oxygen atoms in adjacent layers, resulting in an expansion of Na layer spacing. This structural change enhances the diffusion kinetics of Na^(+), thereby significantly improving the rate performance of NCFM. Furthermore, elevated calcination temperatures facilitate the reduction of oxygen vacancies, leading to improved crystallinity. This enhancement in crystallinity mitigates structural strain during phase transitions, contributing to improved cyclic stability. Consequently, the optimized NCFM shows an initial discharge specific capacity of 143.3 mA·h/g at 0.1C, with a capacity retention rate of 79.28% after 100 cycles at 1C.展开更多

文摘Halide perovskites have emerged as promising materials for X-ray detection with exceptional properties and reasonable costs.Among them,heterostructures between 3D perovskites and low-dimensional perovskites attract intensive studies of their advantages due to low-level ion migration and decent stability.However,there is still a lack of methods to precisely construct heterostructures and a fundamental understanding of their structure-dependent optoelectronic properties.Herein,a gas-phase method was developed to grow 2D perovskites directly on 3D perovskites with nanoscale accuracy.In addition,the larger steric hindrance of organic layers of 2D perovskites was proved to enable slower ion migration,which resulted in reduced trap states and better stability.Based on MAPbBr_(3)single crystals with the(PA)_(2)PbBr_(4)capping layer,the X-ray detector achieved a sensitivity of 22,245μC Gy_(air)^(−1)cm^(−2),a response speed of 240μs,and a dark current drift of 1.17.10^(–4)nA cm^(−1)s^(−1)V^(−1),which were among the highest reported for state-of-the-art perovskite-based X-ray detectors.This study presents a precise synthesis method to construct perovskite-based heterostructures.It also brings an in-depth understanding of the relationship between lattice structures and properties,which are beneficial for advancing high-performance and cost-effective X-ray detectors.

文摘Trifluoromethyl pyridine(TFMP)motif is commonly discovered in structures of active pharmaceuticals.Flonicamid,characterized by the TFMP moiety,is well known as a prodrug in the knockdown of pests.The azobenzene-modified TFMP derivatives have been previously reported with excellent insecticidal activities.Herein,twenty-one TFMP derivatives were designed by the introduction of carbonyl-bridged aryl groups and synthesized via a one-step synthesis using Flonicamid as the starting material.The structure-activity relationships of these compounds were well analyzed and discussed.A molecular docking study and calcium ion concentration analysis indicated that compound FC13 could have interacted with the nicotinamidase enzyme,which further influenced the Ca^(2+)influx.

文摘Owing to the presence of a low-energy,long-lived nuclear isomeric state,^(229)Th is an ideal candidate for developing the next generation clock—the nuclear clock—holding great promise for both applied and fundamental physics.The^(229)Th ionic nuclear optical clock has garnered considerable attention,attributed to its high precision with a relative uncertainty of≤1.5×10^(-19)and the potential for common-mode noise cancellation via self-comparison between the nuclear transition and the electronic transition of thorium ions.In this article,we focus on Th^(n+)ions(n=1,2,3)and present a comprehensive review of the current progress in the development of ionic nuclear clocks,covering essential steps such as ion generation,trapping,and cooling.Furthermore,we discuss the realization of a closed-loop clock cycle,addressing key aspects including stable isomer excitation and efficient isomer deexcitation.

文摘Single-crystal GaN epilayers were irradiated with heavy inert gas ions(2.3-MeV Ne^(8+),5.3-MeV Kr^(19+))to fluences ranging from 1.0×1.0^(11) to 1.0×1.0^(15)ions∕cm^(2).The strain-related damage accumulation versus ion fluences was studied using highresolution X-ray diffraction(HRXRD)and ultraviolet–visible(UV–Vis)spectroscopy.The results showed that the damage accumulation was mainly dominated by nuclear energy loss.When the ion fluence was less than∼0.055 displacement per atom(dpa),the lattice expansions and lattice strains markedly increased linearly with increasing ion fluences,accompanied by a slow enhancement in the dislocation densities,distortion parameters,and Urbach energy for both ion irradiations.Above this fluence(∼0.055 dpa),the lattice strains presented a slight increase,whereas a remarkable increase was observed in the dislocation densities,distortion parameters,and Urbach energy with the ion fluences after both ion irradiations.∼0.055 dpa is the threshold ion fluence for defect evolution and lattice damage related to strain.The mechanisms underlying the damage accumulation are discussed in detail.

文摘Ln@MOFs by anchoring rare metal ions(Ln) into metal-organic frameworks(MOFs) are proved to have great potential in the field of luminescent molecular thermometer.Nevertheless,the current research indicated that the poor structural stability and low sensitivity hindered their application scope.In this work,a new MOF Zn-450 luminescent thermometer with multiple emission fluorescence characteristics was synthesized by the combination of 3,3,5,5-biphenyl tetracarboxylic acid(H_(4)L) and Zn^(2+) ion under solvothermal conditions.Interestingly,a high relative sensitivity of 1.43 % K^(-1) was found within 80-300 K based on Zn-450.Subsequently,two high-sensitivity luminescent Ln@MOFs(Ln = Eu and Tb) were further fabricated by doping rare earth ions into Zn-450 based on the post-synthesis strategy.Among them,the Eu@Zn-450 demonstrates various luminous behaviors while achieving an increased relative sensitivity of 1.63 % K^(-1).In addition,the continuously visible red,pink,and purple luminescent emissions at the same temperature range were observed,suggesting that the Eu@Zn-450 could be utilized as a luminescent colorimetric molecular thermometer.Importantly,this work can present new possibilities for the development of rare earth-doped luminescence and its temperature sensing properties.

文摘Understanding water chemistry in karst regions is crucial for improving global water resource management and deepening our knowledge of the biogeochemical cycles shaping these sensitive environments.Despite advance-ments in karst hydrology,significant gaps remain in long-term trends,underlying processes,and quantitative effects of environmental changes.This is especially true in areas like the Wujiang River(WJ)in China,where human activities such as reservoir construction and land use/cover changes have accelerated hydrochemical changes.We combined recent and historical monitoring data to provide a detailed analysis of the spatial and temporal characteristics,evolution,and controlling factors of major ions in WJ.These findings are important for local water management and contribute to global efforts to manage similar karst systems facing human-induced pressures.Our research shows clear seasonal differences in solute concentrations,with higher levels during the dry season.WJ’s water is rich in calcium,with Ca-HCO_(3) ion pairs being the most common.Reservoir monitor-ing stations show much higher levels of NO_(3)^(−)and SO_(4)^(2−)compared to river-type stations,likely due to longer hydraulic retention time and increased acid deposition.The study confirms the significant role of pH and water temperature in rock weathering processes.Land use/cover changes were identified as the primary drivers of solute variations(46.37%),followed by lithology(13.92%)and temperature(8.35%).Over the past two decades,in-tense carbonate weathering has been observed,especially during wet seasons.Among karstic provinces,Guizhou Province stands out with the highest ion concentrations,indicative of its extensive karst coverage and heightened weathering processes.

文摘Field-effect nanofluidic transistors(FENTs),biomimicking the structure and functionality of neuron,act as biological transistors with the ability to gate switching responses to external stimuli.The switching ratio has been verified to evaluate the performance of FENTs,but until recently,the response time,another crucial indicator,has been ignored.Employing finite-element method,we investigated the relationship among gate charge,switching ratio and response time by divisionally manipulating gate charge,including entrance surface and the surface of confinement space,for ion transport to optimize switching capability.The dual-split gate charge on FENTs exhibits synergistic effect on switching response.Based on the two regional gate charge on FENTs,multivalence ions in lower concentration,high aspect ratio and single channel show higher switching ratio but longer response time compared to monovalent ions.The findings highlight the necessity of balancing these two signals in FENTs and offer insights for optimizing their design and expanding applications to dual-signal-detection iontronics.

文摘Zinc-ion hybrid supercapacitors(ZIHCs)are compelling candidates for next-generation energy storage owing to their intrinsic safety,low cost,and high power density.However,their practical implementation remains hindered by the limited energy density of traditional carbon-based cathodes.Here,we rationally design porous carbon nanofibers embedded with atomically dispersed Zn and Fe dual-metal sites(ZnFe/PCNFs),synthesized via electrospinning followed by controlled carbonization.The introduction of Fe modulates the local electronic structure of Zn centers,thereby facilitating enhanced d-orbital hybridization and stronger ion adsorption through the formation of ZnFeN_(6) coordination motifs.Coupled with high surface area and hierarchical porosity,these atomic-level interactions facilitate exceptional ion accessibility and rapid charge-transfer kinetics.As a cathode for ZIHCs,ZnFe/PCNFs deliver a specific capacity of 213 mAh g^(-1),exceptional high-rate capability,and longterm cycling stability over 20000 cycles.This work elucidates mechanisms of dual-metal atomic coordination and provides a robust design strategy for high-performance,durable aqueous energy storage systems.

文摘Osmotic energy,existing between the seawater and river water,is a renewable energy source,which can be directly converted into electricity by ion-exchange membranes(IEM).In traditional IEMs,the ion transport channels are formed by nanophase separation of hydrophilic ion carriers and hydrophobic segments.It is difficult to realize high-density ion channels with controlled spatial arrangement and length scale of ion carriers.Herein,we construct high-density 1D ion wires as transmission channels.Through molecular design,hydrophilic imidazole groups and hydrophobic alkyl tails were introduced into the repeat units,which self-assembled into 1D ion transporting core and protecting shell along the main chains.The areal density of the ionic wire arrays is up to~10^(12)cm^(-2),which is the highest value.The ionic wires ensure both high ion flux transport and high selectivity,achieving an ultrahigh-power density of 40.5 W m^(-2)at a 500-fold salinity gradient.Besides,the ionic wire array membrane is well recyclable and antibacterial.The ionic wires provide novel concept for next generation of high-performance membranes.

文摘Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene(UHMWPE)is a key material for marine applications owing to its outstanding self-lubrication and corrosion resistance.However,its long-term performance is compromised by plastic deformation in seawater.In this study,we performed a comparative analysis of the UHMWPE dynamics under seawater and water conditions to investigate the plastic deformation of UHMWPE induced by seawater.The results show that the plastic deformation of UHMWPE is amplified in seawater relative to the water conditions.Under thin fluid conditions,frictional interfaces exhibit a higher interfacial friction force and interaction energy in seawater than in water.Compared to freely diffused water molecules,hydrated ions occupy larger interchain spaces within polyethylene.Furthermore,the diffusion of hydrated ions weakens the interchain interactions,promoting more severe polyethylene chain rearrangement and accelerating seawater-induced plastic deformation in UHMWPE during friction.Furthermore,the diffused seawater accelerated the disentangling of the polyethylene chains and enhanced the orderly orientation distribution of polyethylene.Compared to free water molecules,the water molecules of hydrated ions exhibit enhanced attraction to free-flowing water molecules,thereby accelerating seawater flow across submerged UHMWPE surfaces.This flow enhancement promotes surface polyethylene chain mobility in seawater.

文摘Conversion-type electrode materials hold significant promise for potassium-ion batteries(PIBs)due to their high theoretical capacities,yet their practical deployment is hindered by sluggish kinetics and irreversible structural degradation.To overcome these limitations,we propose a rationally engineered nanoreactor architecture that stabilizes defect-rich MoS_(2)via interlayer incorporation of a carbon monolayer,followed by encapsulation within a nitrogen-doped carbon shell,forming a MoSSe@NC heterostructure.This tailored structure synergistically accelerates both K^(+)diffusion kinetics and electron transfer,enabling unprecedented rate performance(107 mAh g^(-1)at 10 Ag^(-1))and ultralong cyclability(86.5%capacity retention after 1200 cycles at 3 A g^(-1)).Mechanistic insights reveal a distinctive“adsorption-conversion”pathway,where sulfur vacancies on exposed S-Mo-S basal planes act as preferential K^(+)adsorption sites,effectively suppressing parasitic phase transitions during intercalation.In situ X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy corroborate the structural reversibility of the conversion reaction,with the carbon matrix dynamically accommodating strain while preserving electrode integrity.This work not only advances the understanding of defect-driven interfacial chemistry in conversion-type materials but also provides a versatile strategy for designing high-performance anodes in next-generation PIBs through heterostructure engineering.

文摘Sodium-based dual-ion batteries(SDIBs)have been attracting increasing attention in recent years owing to their low cost,environmental benignancy,and high operating voltage.However,the sluggish ion kinetics of conventional carbon anodes that cannot match the fast capacitive anion intercalation behavior of graphite cathodes constraints on improving power density of SDIBs.Herein,we present an ingenious carbon microdomain engineering strategy to fabricate high-performance carbon anode with ion-mediated high-activity nitrogen species and molecular-scale closed-pore architectures.Experimental characterizations and theoretical investigations demonstrate that Zn^(2+)-mediated structural engineering tailors oxidized nitrogen species,which proficiently accelerate the sodium-ion desolvation kinetics;meanwhile the acetate-mediated pore-forming process modulates closed pores,which synergistically afford abundant sodium storage sites for high plateau-region capacity.As a result,the optimized microdomain engineered carbon material(MEC_(3))tailored with the optimal amount of zinc acetate demonstrates an outstanding plateau-region capacity of 253 mAh g^(-1)even at 1 C,among the highest reported values.Consequently,the MEC_(3)||expanded graphite dual-ion battery exhibits an unprecedented cycling stability at high current rate,maintaining 80.6%capacity retention after 10,000 cycles at 10 C,among the best reports.This microdomain engineering strategy provides a new design principle for overcoming kinetic limitations of carbonaceous materials in plateau-dominated sodium storage systems.

文摘NaCu_(0.2)Fe_(0.3)Mn_(0.5)O_(2) (NCFM) cathode material was synthesized using a simple solid-state reaction, and the effect of calcination temperature on its interlayer spacing and oxygen vacancies concentration was investigated. Through electrochemical testing and material characterizations, higher calcination temperatures increase the electrostatic repulsion between oxygen atoms in adjacent layers, resulting in an expansion of Na layer spacing. This structural change enhances the diffusion kinetics of Na^(+), thereby significantly improving the rate performance of NCFM. Furthermore, elevated calcination temperatures facilitate the reduction of oxygen vacancies, leading to improved crystallinity. This enhancement in crystallinity mitigates structural strain during phase transitions, contributing to improved cyclic stability. Consequently, the optimized NCFM shows an initial discharge specific capacity of 143.3 mA·h/g at 0.1C, with a capacity retention rate of 79.28% after 100 cycles at 1C.
