Adjustable Optical Transmittance of Superhydrophobic Carbon Soot Coatings by in-situ Single-step Control of their Physicochemical Profile
摘要: Soot aerosol formation in the ambient atmosphere, due to inappropriate and incomplete incineration of various fossil fuels or waste materials, has been considered as one of the major anthropogenic contributions to the global warming. However, despite of their adverse environmental impact, the soot nanoparticles are extremely useful in many practical applications if deposited as coatings, since they impart superhydrophobicity of the hosting solid substrate. Here, we unveil novel experimental results on the optical transmittance of superhydrophobic soot coatings with three different physicochemical profiles, synthesized by controlling the atmospheric air flow rate during the combustion of rapeseed oil. The in-depth morphological, chemical and optical analyses using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and spectrophotometry, show relation among the thickness, chemical bonds, morphology and light transmission coefficient (T %) of the soot. In turn, at equal film thicknesses, the gradual decrease of π bonds in the material leads to enhanced light transmittance in the NIR range, while the soot morphology regulates the width of the spectral region with T ?0 %. Our findings demonstrate interconnection between the combustion conditions and the derivative physicochemical properties of the soot coatings, allowing single-step adjustment of their optical behavior, possibly for future underwater optical applications.

Erbium-to-dysprosium energy-transfer mechanism and visible luminescence in lead-cadmium-fluorogermanate glass excited at 405?nm
摘要: Erbium-to-dysprosium energy-transfer and visible luminescence in the blue, green, yellow, red, and NIR is reported in PbGeO3:PbF2:CdF2 glass under 405 nm excitation. Absorption and excitation spectra were examined in the UV-VIS-IR spectral region. Emission showed a decrease in the Er3+ emissions around 520 and 545 nm when Dy3+ was added to the host matrix, while the Dy3+ emission around 576 nm (4F9/2 – 6H13/2) increased concomitantly. The recorded lifetime for Er3+ emissions also decreased, as Dy3+ concentration was increased for fixed Er3+ content. No similar behavior was observed when Er3+ concentration varied, confirming a one-way Er3+-to-Dy3+ energy transfer mechanism.

Acid-treated Fe-doped TiO2 as a high performance photocatalyst used for degradation of phenol under visible light irradiation
摘要: The photocatalytic activity of Fe-doped TiO2 nanoparticles is significantly increased by an acid-treatment process. The photocatalyst nanoparticles were prepared using sol–gel method with 0.5 mol% ratio of Fe:Ti in acidic pH of 3. The nanoparticles were structurally characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS). It was observed that the photocatalytic activity suffered from an iron oxide contaminating layer deposited on the surface of the nanoparticles. This contamination layer was removed using an HCl acid-treatment process. The photocatalytic activity using 500 mg/L of Fe0.5-TiO2 in a 10 mg/L of phenol solution increased significantly from 33% to 57% (about 73% increase in the performance), within 90 min of reaction time under visible light irradiation. This significant improvement was achieved by removing the iron oxide contamination layer from the surface of the nanoparticles and adjusting pH to mild acidic and basic pHs.

Impact of doped metals on urea-derived g-C3N4 for photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics: Structure, photoactivity and degradation mechanisms
摘要: Metal doping is an appealing modification strategy of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) to improve its photocatalytic activity. The interactions of g-C3N4 precursors with metals, however, has often been underappreciated, which can induce great impacts on g-C3N4 formation and properties. Herein, the impacts of metals (Na, K, Ca, Mg) on the morphology, structure, and photoactivity of urea-derived g-C3N4 were investigated. Our TEM and XPS results confirmed that the interactions of doped metals with urea precursors lead to the incorporation of O atoms from urea molecules into the framework of g-C3N4. Due to the synergistic effects of the metals and structural O atoms, doped g-C3N4 performed an elevated photodegradation of antibiotics under the visible light irradiation, which was attributed to the enhanced light-harvesting and reduced charge recombination. In addition, the doped metals presented uneven regulation on the band structures and morphology of g-C3N4. As a result, both superoxide and hydroxyl radicals were generated by g-CN-Na and g-CN-K, whereas, only superoxide radicals were involved in g-CN, g-CN-Ca and g-CN-Mg. Consequently, diversified photodegradation mechanisms for enrofloxacin (ENR) were observed that the g-CN, g-CN-Ca and g-CN-Mg reaction systems mainly attacked the piperazine moiety of ENR while g-CN-Na and g-CN-K provided additional photodegradation pathway by attacking quinolone core of ENR. The present work could provide new insights into further understanding of doping chemistry with g-C3N4.

Eu and Dy doped borophosphosilicate glass-ceramics for near ultraviolet based light-emitting diode applications
摘要: The Eu and Dy doped borophosphosilicate glass-ceramics prepared using melt quenching technique are investigated for light-emitting diode applications. The X-ray diffraction results show that the precipitation of AlPO4 crystals in glass matrix occurred during the melt quenching process, leading to the formation of glass-ceramics. The content of AlPO4 crystals depends on the B2O3/P2O5 relative content in glass matrix composition. The spontaneous conversion of Eu3+ to Eu2+ takes place in the as-obtained glass-ceramics without using reducing atmosphere during the preparation process. The conversion extent of Eu3+ to Eu2+, optical properties and structure of the as-obtained materials are related to the B2O3/P2O5 relative content. The Eu/Dy co-doped borophosphosilicate glass-ceramics display the emission bands in the blue, yellow, and red light regions and their combinations generate near white light-emission. In addition, the tunable light emission can be realized by changing the concentration of Eu and B2O3/P2O5 relative content. The as-developed Eu and Dy doped borophosphosilicate glass-ceramics show promising prospects in light-emitting diode applications.

Highly efficient transparent nanophosphor films for tunable white light-emitting layered coatings
摘要: Bright luminescence in rare-earth (RE) nanocrystals, so-called nanophosphors, is generally achieved by choosing a host that enable the effective excitation of the RE activator through charge or energy transfer. Although tungstate, molybdate or vanadate compounds provide the aforementioned transfer, a comparative analysis of the efficiency of such emitters remains elusive. Herein we perform a combined structural and optical analysis, which reveals that the tetragonal GdVO4 matrix gives rise to the highest efficiency among the different transparent nanophosphor films compared. Then we demonstrate that by sequential stacking of optical quality layers made of Eu3+ and Dy3+ doped nanocrystals, it is possible to attain highly transparent white light emitting coatings of tunable shade with photoluminescence quantum yields above 35%. Layering provides precise dynamic tuning of the chromaticity based on the photoexcitation wavelength dependence of the emission of the nanophosphor ensemble without altering the chemical composition of the emitters or degrading their efficiency. Total extinction of incoming radiation along with the high quantum yields achieved make these thin layered phosphors one of the most efficient transparent white converter coatings ever developed.

A new disordered langbeinite-type compound, K <sub/>2</sub> Tb <sub/>1.5</sub> Ta <sub/>0.5</sub> P <sub/>3</sub> O <sub/>12</sub> , and Eu <sup>3+</sup> -doped multicolour light-emitting properties
摘要: For the first time, a new langbeinite-type phosphate, namely potassium terbium tantalum tris(phosphate), K2Tb1.5Ta0.5(PO4)3, has been prepared successfully using a high-temperature flux method and has been structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The results show that its structure can be described as a three-dimensional open framework of [Tb1.5Ta0.5(PO4)3] interconnected by K+ ions. The TbIII and TaV cations in the structure are disordered and occupy the same crystallographic sites. The IR spectrum, the UV–Vis spectrum, the morphology and the Eu3+-activated photoluminescence spectroscopic properties were studied. A series of Eu3+-doped phosphors, i.e. K2Tb1.5–xTa0.5(PO4)3:xEu3+ (x = 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07, 0.10), were prepared via a solid-state reaction and the photoluminescence properties were studied. The results show that under near-UV excitation, the luminescence colour can be tuned from green through yellow to red by simply adjusting the Eu3+ concentration from 0 to 0.1, because of the efficient Tb3+→Eu3+ energy-transfer mechanism.

Full color carbon dots through surface engineering for constructing white light-emitting diodes
摘要: White light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) devices are replacing the filament lamp and they can provide a light close to the natural sunlight, which have thus drawn considerable attention in these recent years. It remains a scientific challenge to develop WLEDs using environmentally friendly, easy-to-process and cost-effective phosphors. Here we synthesized blue-, green- and red-carbon dots (denoted as B-, G- and R-CDs) by a facile solvothermal method with high dispersity both in aqueous and organic solvent. The quantum yield (QY) of the R-CDs achieved up to 24.7%. These CDs can be easily dissolved in polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) colloid, leading to the production of ultraviolet (UV)-excited LED devices to avoid the retinal damage caused by blue ray excitation. The fluorescence emission of the WLED has a wide band, covering the whole visible light region. Importantly, the influence of doping that gives rise to the change of emissive colors has been elucidated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) combined with a computation method in order to provide a systematic controllable tuning on the functionalization of CDs. As such, WLEDs were demonstrated with color coordinates of (0.33, 0.33), a color temperature of 5612 K in the CIE chromaticity diagram with good anti-photobleaching and a color rendering index (CRI) of 89.

Study of visible-light photocatalytic degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid in batch and circulated-mode photoreactors
摘要: Purpose The consumption of pesticides and chemical fertilizers is one of the major environmental and health problems. In this report, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) was chosen to evaluate the impact of photodegradation using LED (Light-emitting diode) (400 and 365 nm) sources in batch and programmable circulated-mode photoreactors respectively. Methods A β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) grafted titanium dioxide P25 (P25/β-CD) and complexation of 2,4-D and β-CD were synthesized via photoinduced and spray-drying methods, respectively. The structures were characterized. Moreover, we investigated the effects of the amount of catalyst, the β-CD amount on bed catalyst, irradiation time, kind of photoreactor on the photocatalytic degradation efficiency. Results Based on the results of experiments in batch reactor, the optimum amount of TiO2, β-CD grafted by catalyst were 1 and 0.1 g/L, respectively. In batch-mode the photodegradation efficiency of 2,4-D after 5 h with P25, P25/β-CD as a photocatalyst and 2,4-D/β-CD complex with P25 photocatalyst were approximately 81, 85 and 95% respectively. After 8 h of irradiation in circulated-mode reactor, degradation yields with P25, P25/β-CD and 2,4-D/β-CD complex along with P25 were 89, 91 and 96% respectively. On the other hand, the circulated-mode photoreactor with high efficiency was appropriate to degradation of the high concentration of 2,4-D solution (200 mg/L). After 5 successive cycles with 25 h of irradiation, P25 and P25/β-CD maintained as high 2,4-D removal efficiency as 82.6, 84% respectively, with excellent stability and reusability. Conclusion The photodegradation method can be used as an effective and environmental friendly process in the degradation of organic compound.
