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Atomic layer deposition(ALD)has driven significant advancements in photovoltaic technologies by enabling the development of interlayers that improve both the efficiency and stability of devices.This review traces the evolution of ALD interlayers across various photovoltaic technologies,starting with early silicon solar cells and progressing into a variety of thin-film solar cells.We then delve into the role of ALD in state-of-the-art single-junction perovskite solar cells,particularly in optimizing the critical interfaces of perovskites/charge-transporting layers/-electrodes.Apart from that,we screen the functionality of ALD processing,which consists of reducing surface/interfacial defects and thus mitigating energy loss.Particularly,it enables efficient stacking of multiple thin layers,making a variety of tandem solar cells possible(silicon/perovskite,etc.)for higher efficiency.Moreover,the ALDprocessed interlayer prevents the ion migration between metals and perovskites,inhibiting the inter-diffusioninduced degradation of devices.Despite ALD technology extensively elevating the performance of above conventional/emerging solar cells,key challenges such as precursor flammability,cross-contamination during processing,and low deposition pace persist.We go over these challenges and expect our comprehensive overview of ALD techniques could shed light on pushing the envelope of photovoltaic efficiency.

文摘With the fast development of technology for the treatment of tumor and bacteria,photo-therapeutic strate-gies emerge as a kind of highly effective and common treatment,but the low tissue penetration depth of light limits their development.Sonodynamic therapy(SDT),as an efficient and non-invasive treatment,attracts more people's attention due to the inherent property of high tissue penetration.The soft tissue penetration depth of ultrasound(US)can even reach more than 10 cm,which has great advantage over that of light.Therefore,many sonosensitizers are studied and applied to SDT-based therapy.Metal-based inorganic nanocrystals are able to generate more reactive oxygen species(ROS)due to the special composition and band structure.The representative achievements and the specific functions of the nanocrystals sonosensitizers are summarized in this work,and the relationship of structure/composition-SDT performance and the internally regulated composite is revealed.Syner-gistic effects of SDT in combination with other therapeutic modalities are mainly highlighted.At the same time,the critical and potential issues and future perspectives are addressed.

文摘The design of nanostructured materials occupies a privileged position in the development and management of affordable and effective technology in the antibacterial sector.Here,we discuss the antimicrobial properties of three carbonaceous nanoblades and nanodarts materials of graphene oxide(GO),reduced graphene oxide(RGO),and single-wall carbon nanotubes(SWCNTs)that have a mechano-bactericidal effect,and the ability to piercing or slicing bacterial membranes.To demonstrate the significance of size,morphology and composition on the antibacterial activity mechanism,the designed nanomaterials have been characterized.The minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC),standard agar well diffusion,and transmission electron microscopy were utilized to evaluate the antibacterial activity of GO,RGO,and SWCNTs.Based on the evidence obtained,the three carbonaceous materials exhibit activity against all microbial strains tested by completely encapsulating bacterial cells and causing morphological disruption by degrading the microbial cell membrane in the order of RGO>GO>SWCNTs.Because of the external cell wall structure and outer membrane proteins,the synthesized carbonaceous nanomaterials exhibited higher antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacterial strains than Gram-negative and fungal microorganisms.RGO had the lowest MIC values(0.062,0.125,and 0.25 mg/mL against B.subtilis,S.aureus,and E.coli,respectively),as well as minimum fungal concentrations(0.5 mg/mL for both A.fumigatus and C.albicans).At 12 hr,the cell viability values against tested microbial strains were completely suppressed.Cell lysis and death occurred as a result of severe membrane damage caused by microorganisms perched on RGO nanoblades.Our work gives an insight into the design of effective graphene-based antimicrobial materials for water treatment and remediation.

文摘The discovery of chirped pulse amplification has led to great improvements in laser technology,enabling energetic laser beams to be compressed to pulse durations of tens of femtoseconds and focused to a few micrometers.Protons with energies of tens of MeV can be accelerated using,for instance,target normal sheath acceleration and focused on secondary targets.Under such conditions,nuclear reactions can occur,with the production of radioisotopes suitable for medical application.The use of high-repetition lasers to produce such isotopes is competitive with conventional methods mostly based on accelerators.In this paper,we study the production of^(67)Cu,^(63)Zn,^(18)F,and^(11)C,which are currently used in positron emission tomography and other applications.At the same time,we study the reactions^(10)B(p,α)^(7)Be and^(70)Zn(p,4n)^(67)Ga to put further constraints on the proton distributions at different angles,as well as the reaction^(11)B(p,α)^(8)Be relevant for energy production.The experiment was performed at the 1 PW laser facility at VegaⅢin Salamanca,Spain.Angular distributions of radioisotopes in the forward(with respect to the laser direction)and backward directions were measured using a high purity germanium detector.Our results are in reasonable agreement with numerical estimates obtained following the approach of Kimura and Bonasera[Nucl.Instrum.Methods Phys.Res.,Sect.A 637,164–170(2011)].

文摘This paper introduces the African Bison Optimization(ABO)algorithm,which is based on biological population.ABO is inspired by the survival behaviors of the African bison,including foraging,bathing,jousting,mating,and eliminating.The foraging behavior prompts the bison to seek a richer food source for survival.When bison find a food source,they stick around for a while by bathing behavior.The jousting behavior makes bison stand out in the population,then the winner gets the chance to produce offspring in the mating behavior.The eliminating behavior causes the old or injured bison to be weeded out from the herd,thus maintaining the excellent individuals.The above behaviors are translated into ABO by mathematical modeling.To assess the reliability and performance of ABO,it is evaluated on a diverse set of 23 benchmark functions and applied to solve five practical engineering problems with constraints.The findings from the simulation demonstrate that ABO exhibits superior and more competitive performance by effectively managing the trade-off between exploration and exploitation when compared with the other nine popular metaheuristics algorithms.
