The grain size, crystal size, and crystallinity of ZnWO4 particles increased with the increase of calcina- tion temperature and prolonging calcination time. The photocatalytic activity was measured for the degradation of an aqueous Rhodamine-B(RhB) solution and gaseous formaldehyde(FAD). With the increase of calcination temperature and time, the activities increased to a maximum and then decreased. ZnWO4 photocatalyst prepared at 550℃ for I0 h showed the highest activity, which is similar to the photocatalytic activity of P25TiO2 for the degradation of gase-ous FAD. High crystallinity, large surface area, and good dispersion are responsible for the high photocatalytic per- formance of the prepared ZnWO4.展开更多

The result indicates that the unit cell parameter c is linearly increased with the increase of Eu2O3 content in Y2O2S: Eu^3+ (0.01 ≤ x ≤0.10). On the other hand, the change of unit cell parameter a is not linear dependence. In the Y2O2S: Eu^3 + crystal structure, Eu^3+ ions only replaced Y^3 + ions' places in which it posited center position of c axis. With the increase of Eu2O3 content, the position of the strongest emission peak changed from 540 nm (5D1→^ 7F2 transition) to 626 nm (^5Do→^7TF2 transition), and the maximum intensity was obtained when x = 0.09 in Y2O2S: Eu^3+ (0.01 ≤x ≤0.10). This is due to the environment of trivalent europium in the crystal structure of Y2O2S. Doping with Mg^2+ or Ti^4+. ions alone cannot get the good long-lasting afterglow effect, whereas co-doping with Mg^2 + and Ti^4 + ions and excited with 365 nm ultraviolet light, a strong thermoluminesence peak appeared, red and orange long-lasting phosphorescence (LLP) was also observed and the phosphorescence lasted nearly 3 h in the light perception of the dark-adapted human eye (0.32 mcd·m^-2). Thus the LLP mechanism was analyzed.展开更多

The prepared LiEu1-xBix(MoO4)2 phosphors exhibited pure and intense red emission at 613 nm under the excitation of near-UV 394 nm. It was discussed in detail that the influence of the synthesis conditions such as the doping concentration of Bi3, the dose of citric acid, pH of the precursor solution and the sintering temperature on the emission intensity of the phosphors. According to the results, the optimal condition was obtained: the doping concentration of Bi3+ was 15 mol.%, molar ratio of citric acid to metal ions was 1.5:1, pH of the precursor solution was 1.0 and the sintering temperature was 800 ℃. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the LiEuo.85Bi0.15(MoO4)2 phosphor prepared under the optimal condition indicated that the phosphor was single phase with tetragonal scheelite structure. The Commission Intemationale de I'E- clairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates of LiEuo.85Bio.15(MoO4)2 were (x=0.655, y=0.345), which were closer to the national television stan- dard committee (NTSC) standard values (x=0.670, y=0.330) than that of a commercial red phosphor of Y202S:Eu3+(x=0.630, y=0.350). This LiEuo.85Bi0As(MoO4)2 red phosphor is a promising candidate for the fabrication of white light-emitting diode (W-LED) with near-UV chips.展开更多

Under 980 nm diode laser excitation, the impact of different concentrations of Ho^3+ ion on the UC luminescence intensity was discussed. The law of luminescence intensity versus pump power shows that the 474 nm blue emission, 538 nm green emission, and 642 nm red emission are all due to the two-photon process, while the 450 nm blue emission is a three-photon process. The UC mechanism and processes were also analyzed. The sample was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The result shows that Ho^3+ ,Tm^3+ , and Yb^3+ co-doped NaYF4 prepared by the hydrothermal method exhibits a hexagonal nanocrystal.展开更多

文摘Glymphatic flow has been proposed to clear brain waste while we sleep.Cerebrospinal fluid moves from periarterial to perivenous spaces through the parenchyma,with subsequent cerebrospinal fluid drainage to dural lymphatics.Glymphatic disruption is associated with neurological conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease and traumatic brain injury.Therefore,investigating its structure and function may improve understanding of pathophysiology.The recent controversy on whether glymphatic flow increases or decreases during sleep demonstrates that the glymphatic hypothesis remains contentious.However,discrepancies between different studies could be due to limitations of the specific techniques used and confounding factors.Here,we review the methods used to study glymphatic function and provide a toolkit from which researchers can choose.We conclude that tracer analysis has been useful,ex vivo techniques are unreliable,and in vivo imaging is still limited.Finally,we explore the potential for future methods and highlight the need for in vitro models,such as microfluidic devices,which may address technique limitations and enable progression of the field.

文摘The integration of wind power and natural gas for hydrogen production forms a Green and Blue Hydrogen Integrated Energy System(GBH-IES),which is a promising cogeneration approach characterized by multienergy complementarity,flexible dispatch,and efficient utilization.This system can meet the demands for electricity,heat,and hydrogen while demonstrating significant performance in energy supply,energy conversion,economy,and environment(4E).To evaluate the GBH-IES system effectively,a comprehensive performance evaluation index system was constructed from the 4E dimensions.The fuzzy DEMATEL method was used to quantify the causal relationships between indicators,establishing a scientific input-output assessment system.The DEA model was then employed for preliminary performance evaluation of the hydrogen storage system,followed by the entropy weight TOPSIS method to enhance the accuracy and reliability of the assessment results.The study also conducted a comprehensive benefit evaluation and sensitivity analysis for different cases involving blue hydrogen,green hydrogen,and their synergistic effects under varying carbon emission factors(CEFs)and hydrogen blending ratios(HBRs).The results indicate that combining green and blue hydrogen can achieve higher comprehensive benefits for the hydrogen storage system,providing valuable insights for hydrogen storage development and demonstrating the effectiveness of themulti-criteria decision-making methods used.

文摘To enhance the photocatalytic activity of B-BiVO4,Ni-doped B?BiVO4photocatalyst(Ni-B-BiVO4)was synthesized through sol-gel and impregnation method.The photocatalysts were characterized by XPS,XRD,SEM,EDS,BET and UV-Vis DRS techniques.The results showed that single or double doping did not change the crystalline structure and morphology,but the particle size decreased with Ni doping.The band gap energy absorption edge of Ni-B-BiVO4shifted to a longer wavelength compared with undoped,B or Ni single doped BiVO4.More V4+and surface hydroxyl oxygen were observed in BiVO4after Ni-B co-doping.When the optimal mass fraction of Ni is0.30%,the degradation rate of MO in50min is95%for0.3Ni-B-BiVO4sample which also can effectively degrade methyl blue(MB),acid orange(AOII)II and rhodamine B(RhB).The enhanced photocatalytic activity is attributed to the synergistic effects of B and Ni doping.

文摘Nanosized ZnWO4 photocatalysts were successfully synthesized via the sol-gel process in a temperature range of 450-800℃. The grain size, crystal size, and crystallinity of ZnWO4 particles increased with the increase of calcina- tion temperature and prolonging calcination time. The photocatalytic activity was measured for the degradation of an aqueous Rhodamine-B(RhB) solution and gaseous formaldehyde(FAD). With the increase of calcination temperature and time, the activities increased to a maximum and then decreased. ZnWO4 photocatalyst prepared at 550℃ for I0 h showed the highest activity, which is similar to the photocatalytic activity of P25TiO2 for the degradation of gase-ous FAD. High crystallinity, large surface area, and good dispersion are responsible for the high photocatalytic per- formance of the prepared ZnWO4.
文摘Long-lasting phosphor Y2O2S : Eu^3+ , Mg^2+ , Ti^4+ was synthesized by a flux method and their luminescence properties were investigated. The result indicates that the unit cell parameter c is linearly increased with the increase of Eu2O3 content in Y2O2S: Eu^3+ (0.01 ≤ x ≤0.10). On the other hand, the change of unit cell parameter a is not linear dependence. In the Y2O2S: Eu^3 + crystal structure, Eu^3+ ions only replaced Y^3 + ions' places in which it posited center position of c axis. With the increase of Eu2O3 content, the position of the strongest emission peak changed from 540 nm (5D1→^ 7F2 transition) to 626 nm (^5Do→^7TF2 transition), and the maximum intensity was obtained when x = 0.09 in Y2O2S: Eu^3+ (0.01 ≤x ≤0.10). This is due to the environment of trivalent europium in the crystal structure of Y2O2S. Doping with Mg^2+ or Ti^4+. ions alone cannot get the good long-lasting afterglow effect, whereas co-doping with Mg^2 + and Ti^4 + ions and excited with 365 nm ultraviolet light, a strong thermoluminesence peak appeared, red and orange long-lasting phosphorescence (LLP) was also observed and the phosphorescence lasted nearly 3 h in the light perception of the dark-adapted human eye (0.32 mcd·m^-2). Thus the LLP mechanism was analyzed.

文摘The Bi3+ doped molybdate-based red-emitting phosphors, LiEu1-xBix(MoO4)2, were successfully synthesized with a sol-gel method. The prepared LiEu1-xBix(MoO4)2 phosphors exhibited pure and intense red emission at 613 nm under the excitation of near-UV 394 nm. It was discussed in detail that the influence of the synthesis conditions such as the doping concentration of Bi3, the dose of citric acid, pH of the precursor solution and the sintering temperature on the emission intensity of the phosphors. According to the results, the optimal condition was obtained: the doping concentration of Bi3+ was 15 mol.%, molar ratio of citric acid to metal ions was 1.5:1, pH of the precursor solution was 1.0 and the sintering temperature was 800 ℃. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the LiEuo.85Bi0.15(MoO4)2 phosphor prepared under the optimal condition indicated that the phosphor was single phase with tetragonal scheelite structure. The Commission Intemationale de I'E- clairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates of LiEuo.85Bio.15(MoO4)2 were (x=0.655, y=0.345), which were closer to the national television stan- dard committee (NTSC) standard values (x=0.670, y=0.330) than that of a commercial red phosphor of Y202S:Eu3+(x=0.630, y=0.350). This LiEuo.85Bi0As(MoO4)2 red phosphor is a promising candidate for the fabrication of white light-emitting diode (W-LED) with near-UV chips.

文摘Nanocrystal of upconversion (UC) phosphor Ho^3+, Tm^3+ , and Yb^3+ co-doped NaYF4 was prepared by the hydrothermal method in the presence of the complexing agent EDTA. Under 980 nm diode laser excitation, the impact of different concentrations of Ho^3+ ion on the UC luminescence intensity was discussed. The law of luminescence intensity versus pump power shows that the 474 nm blue emission, 538 nm green emission, and 642 nm red emission are all due to the two-photon process, while the 450 nm blue emission is a three-photon process. The UC mechanism and processes were also analyzed. The sample was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The result shows that Ho^3+ ,Tm^3+ , and Yb^3+ co-doped NaYF4 prepared by the hydrothermal method exhibits a hexagonal nanocrystal.

文摘The purpose of this work is to explore the effects of the introduction methods of Ce^4+and Zr^4+on the physicochemical properties,activity,and K tolerance of V2 O5-WO3/TiO2 catalyst for the selective catalytic reduction of NOx by NH3.Four different methods,namely pre-impregnation,post-impregnation,coimpregnation,and co-precipitation,were used to synthesize a series of V2 O5-WO3-TiO2-CeO2-ZrO2 catalysts.The catalysts were characterized by XRD,BET,NH3-TPD,XPS,and H2-TPR techniques.Moreover,the activity and anti-K poisoning performance were tested by an NH3-SCR model reaction.The results show that the introduction of Ce^4+and Zr^4+can improve the catalytic performance of V2O5-WO3/TiO2 catalyst,but the impregnation method cannot enhance the anti-K poisoning performance.Ce^4+and Zr^4+introduced by co-precipitation method can effectively improve the tolerance of K,which is mainly due to the incorporation of Ce^4+and Zr^4+into TiO2 lattice to form a uniform TiO2-CeO2-ZrO2 solid solution,resulting in the optimal surface acidity and redox performance,and reducing the decreases caused by Kpoisoning.Furthermore,based on the best introduction method,we further optimized the molar ratio of Ce^4+/Zr^4+,It is found that the catalyst exhibits the best anti-K poisoning performance when the molar ratio of Ce^4+/Zr^4+is 2:1.

文摘In this study, the LiFePO_(4) cathode was synthesized by the ionic thermal method using the deep eutectic mixture of tetramethyl ammonium chloride and urea. The synthetic conditions were systematically investigated by orthogonal experiments, which indicate that the optimal reaction time, reaction temperature, molar ratio of Li to DES and rotate speed are 96 h, 220 ℃, 1:14 and20 r·min^(-1), respectively. X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscope(SEM) and transmission electron microscope(TEM) were characterized to investigate the crystalline structure and morphology of the obtained materials, indicating well-crystallized LiFePO_(4) with olivine structure. And the physical properties of LiFePO_(4) were explored through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),57 Fe Mo¨ ssbauer absorption spectra and Raman spectra. An initial discharge capacity can reach 151 m Ah·g^(-1) at 0.1 C rate for LiFePO_(4) following by calcining at 600 ℃ under the optimal conditions, and it retains 125.1 m Ah·g^(-1) after 100 cycles. These results demonstrated that the addition of ionic liquids can improve the rate performance, cycle performance and ion diffusion rate of LiFePO_(4).
