CO2 laser interactions with wood tissues during single pulse laser-incision
摘要： Incising is a technique used to improve fluid flow in impermeable woods during wood treatment processes. Previous studies relating to the laser-incision of wood have neglected many aspects such as detailed analysis of the anatomy of the wood, including consideration of tangential/radial faces and earlywood/latewood interactions with the laser beam. By considering wood anatomy, a complete investigation of the CO2 laser-incision processes is presented that yields new knowledge of laser beam interaction with growth rings when incising into tangential/radial faces, and the low-density earlywood and higher density latewood within the growth ring. Southern Yellow Pine, Radiata Pine, European Redwood and Beech, each having different bulk densities, were laser-incised using a 2 kW ROFIN CO2 laser with radiation in the far-infrared regime (10.6 μm). Microstructural characterisations were carried out to better understand the effect of CO2 laser-incision and its parameters on the depth, diameter and quality of the incised holes. The laser-incised hole shapes were found to be uniform in depth, however, the hole circularity was significantly affected by the presence of earlywood and latewood tissues. Maximum and minimum diameters of incised holes were measured in the Radiata Pine (~1.3 mm) and in the Beech (~0.7 mm), respectively. Similarly, for equal laser powers used, the maximum and minimum depths of laser-incised holes were measured in the European Redwood (~33 mm) and in the Beech (~25 mm), respectively, with the laser incident on the radial face of the samples. CO2 laser pulse duration had a greater effect on diameter and depth of incised holes when compared to laser power and showed that the CO2 laser pulse duration is a dominant parameter when designing CO2 laser-incision processes.

A cyanide-bridged di-manganese carbonyl complex that photochemically reduces CO <sub/>2</sub> to CO
摘要： A cyanide-bridged di-manganese carbonyl complex that photochemically reduces CO2 to CO? Hsin-Ya Kuo, Tia S. Lee, An T. Chu, Steven E. Tignor, Gregory D. Scholes and Andrew B. Bocarsly* Manganese(I) tricarbonyl complexes such as [Mn(bpy)(CO)3L] (L = Br, or CN) are known to be electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction to CO. However, due to their rapid photodegradation under UV and visible light, these monomeric manganese complexes have not been considered as photocatalysts for CO2 reduction without the use of a photosensitizer. In this paper, we report a cyanide-bridged di-manganese complex, {[Mn(bpy)(CO)3]2(μ-CN)}ClO4, which is both electrocatalytic and photochemically active for CO2 reduction to CO. Compared to the [Mn(bpy)(CO)3CN] electrocatalyst, our CN-bridged binuclear complex is a more efficient electrocatalyst for CO2 reduction using H2O as a proton source. In addition, we report a photochemical CO2 reduction to CO using the dimanganese complex under 395 nm irradiation.

Sensitized photochemical CO2 reduction by hetero-Pacman compounds linking a Re(I) tricarbonyl with a porphyrin unit
摘要： The hetero-Pacman architecture places two different metal coordination sites in close proximity, which can support efficient energy and/or electron transfer and allow for cooperative activation of small molecules. Herein, we present the synthesis of dyads consisting of a porphyrin unit as photosensitizer and a rhenium unit as catalytically active site, which are held together by the rigid xanthene backbone. Mononuclear [(NN)Re(CO)3(Cl)] complexes for CO2 reduction where NN represents a bidentate diimine ligand (e.g. bipyridine or phenanthroline) lack light absorption in the visible region, resulting in poor photocatalysis upon illumination with visible light. In order to improve their visible light absorption, we have focused on the incorporation of a strongly absorbing free base or zinc porphyrin unit. Resulting photocatalytic experiments showed a strong dependence of catalytic performance on both the type of photosensitizer and also the excitation wavelengths. Most notably, the intramolecular hetero-Pacman system containing a zinc porphyrin unit showed much better catalytic activity in the visible region (excitation wavelengths >450 nm) than the free base version, the corresponding mononuclear rhenium compound or an intermolecular system comprised of a 1:1 mixture of the mononuclear analogues.

Probing the Role of Nickle Dopant in Aqueous Colloidal ZnS Nanocrystals for Efficient Solar-Driven CO2 Reduction
摘要： Photocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) on a heterogeneous catalyst offers the possibility for CO2 abatement and emerges as a promising avenue for renewable carbonaceous fuels production at ambient temperature and pressure using solar light as the sole energy input. Here, we report a newly aqueous colloidal comprised of monodispersed Ni-doped ZnS (ZnS:Ni) nanocrystals as excellent visible-light-responsive photocatalysts for CO2RR into formate. The wavelength-dependent quantum yield shows a significant contribution of Ni doping for visible light absorption. A high selectivity (>95%) of HCOOH production and a remarkable quantum efficiency of 59.1% at 340 nm and 5.6 % at 420 nm are obtained over ZnS:Ni (0.1 %) colloidal nanocrystals modified by Cd2+. The abundant sulfur vacancies and extended visible light absorption of the constructed colloidal ZnS:Ni nanocrystals contribute to the prominent performance for CO2RR. However, excessive doping of Ni does not guarantee an increase of photocatalytic CO2RR due to a diminish of sulfur vacancy. The regulation of sulfur vacancies by Ni doping and their interplay on photocatalytic CO2RR activity are presented and discussed. This work provides an in-depth insight of the role of dopant on vacancy modulation in photocatalyst beyond light absorption and a guidance for design of the potential photocatalyst for CO2RR.

Lewis acid activated CO <sub/>2</sub> reduction over a Ni modified Ni–Ge hydroxide driven by visible-infrared light
摘要： Improvement of light harvesting and reaction kinetics is of great importance for achieving efficient solar-driven CO2 reduction. Here, a Ni modified low-crystalline Ni–Ge containing hydroxide with Lewis acid sites was synthesized in highly reductive NaBH4 solution and exhibited 9.3 μmol gcat.?1 h?1 CO and 3.5 μmol gcat.?1 h?1 CH4 generation rates under visible light irradiation, and even achieved a 3.8 μmol gcat.?1 h?1 CO evolution under infrared light irradiation. The wide-spectrum light harvesting resulted from the light absorption from the localized surface plasmonic resonance of Ni nanoparticles. In addition, the Lewis acid can activate CvO bonds to decrease the kinetic barriers of CO2 reduction. The design concept that rationally combines the advantages of expanding the spectral response and activating CO2 may offer a new strategy for efficient solar energy utilization.

Preparation of La<sub>0.9</sub>Sr<sub>0.1</sub>Ga<sub>0.8</sub>Mg<sub>0.2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> Film by Pulse Laser Deposition (PLD) Method on Porous Ni–Fe Metal Substrate for CO<sub>2</sub> Electrolysis
摘要： Preparation of metal supported La0.9Sr0.1Ga0.8Mg0.2O3 (LSGM) thin film cell for CO2 electrolysis was studied and by using selective reduction method of NiO–NiFe2O4, it was found that porous Ni–Fe(9:1) based substrate with ca.30% porosity was successfully prepared without large volume change resulting in the successful preparation of LaGaO3 dense thin film on metal substrate. By using Ce0.8Sm0.2O2 (SDC) thin film, Ni diffusion from Ni–Fe substrate was prevented. CO2 electrolysis was performed on the prepared LSGM/SDC on Ni–Fe porous substrate. When Sm0.5Sr0.5CoO3 (SSC) anode was prepared by screen print method using SSC powder, sintering of SSC powder was significantly occurred resulting in the large IR loss and overpotential. In contrast, when SSC anode layer was deposited by PLD (30 min) after LSGM/SDC layer deposition, tight contact between SSC anode and LSGM electrolyte film was obtained and the large CO2 electrolysis current of 3 and 0.5 A/cm2 were achieved at 973 and 773 K, respectively. Impedance analysis suggests that increased CO2 electrolysis current was obtained by decreased IR loss and electrode overpotential.

Wafer-Scale Si Nanoconed Arrays Induced Syngas in the Photoelectrochemical CO2 Reduction
摘要： Photoelectrochemical (PEC) CO2 reduction offers a promising way to carry out the CO2 sequestration and develop the carbon-neutral technology. Doped Si is by far one of the most technologically important semiconductors with high conductivity and narrow bandgap, potential for CO2 reduction. However, the previous reports on PEC CO2 reduction over Si electrodes were not involved with many nanostructures. Syngas, a kind of chemical feedstocks and a crucial intermediate for hydrocarbon fuels, is highly demanded for industry. Herein, we used a wafer-scale nanoconed Si arrays substrate to load the metallic nanoparticles (Au and Cu). Effective PEC CO2 reduction into syngas was achieved in the aqueous solution with no sacrificial reagents. In contrast, planar Si seldom generated CO under the same reactant environment. Our finding deepens the comprehension of PEC CO2 reduction over the nanostructured materials and gives an inspiration for rational design of the PEC catalysts towards solar-to-chemical conversion.

Probing Electrocatalytic CO2 Reduction at Individual Cu Nanostructures via Optically Targeted Electrochemical Cell Microscopy
摘要： Optically targeted electrochemical cell microscopy (OTECCM) was applied to measure electrocatalytic rates at individual Cu nanoparticles (NPs) under electrolyte conditions relevant to CO2 reduction. The electrocatalytic responses from individual NPs were found to exhibit a wide variation in behavior, with significant NP-to-NP variations in the magnitude of electrocatalytic currents and necessary overpotentials being observed. Correlations of these quantities with metrics of NP size suggest no significant variations in the inherent electrocatalytic activity of the NPs with size. Finite element simulations of diffusion in this system demonstrate the observed diffusion-limited currents are significantly smaller than expected, attributable to the presence of a significant amount of residual ligand on the surface of the Cu NPs, which were prepared via an organic phase synthesis. The results presented here further demonstrate the promise of techniques which employ correlated optical and electrochemical measurements, such as OTECCM, for studying electrocatalysis at individual NPs.

Photocatalytic CO2 reduction on porous TiO2 synergistically promoted by atomic layer deposited MgO overcoating and photodeposited silver nanoparticles
摘要： In this work, a porous TiO2 photocatalyst derived from metal-organic framework MIL-125 was synthesized and tested for photocatalytic CO2 reduction with water. To improve the photocatalytic performance, innovative materials modifications were employed by decorating TiO2 with atomic layer deposited (ALD) MgO overcoating and photodeposited silver (Ag) nanoparticles at different orders: MgO deposition followed by Ag (i.e. Ag/MgO/TiO2), or Ag deposition followed by MgO (i.e. MgO/Ag/TiO2). The addition of Ag promoted transfer of photoinduced electrons, while the coating of an ultrathin MgO layer inhibited surface charge recombination and enhanced CO2 adsorption. The combination of MgO and Ag resulted in synergistic promotion on CO2 photoreduction greater than the sum of individual promotional effects. The Ag/MgO/TiO2 catalyst with 7 ALD-layers of MgO and 5% Ag was 14 times more active than the pristine TiO2 in terms of CO and CH4 production. In addition, the sequence of MgO/Ag decoration influenced the catalytic activity. The Ag/MgO/TiO2 catalysts were in general more active than the MgO/Ag/TiO2 counterparts, likely due to the different electron mobility and Ag nanoparticle distribution on the surface. This work for the first time reports the novel materials structure of ALD coated MgO and photodeposited Ag nanoparticles on TiO2, and it reveals the importance of optimizing materials morphology and structure to promote the catalytic activity.

Promoting Photoreduction Properties via Synergetic Utilization between Plasmonic Effect and Highly Active Facet of BiOCl
摘要： Exploring highly efficient photocatalysts is an urgent task for achieving efficient solar-to-chemical conversion. Plasmonic effect is widely used in improving the photocatalytic properties via reducing the activation barrier for chemical reactions, enhancing the absorption of the photocatalysts or injecting the hot carriers into the photocatalysts from the plasmon metals. In this work, we design BiOCl-Ag-E with Ag loaded on the edge side of BiOCl. This hybrid structure takes the advantages of highly photocatalytic active (001) facet of BiOCl and the plasmonic effect. The plasmon metal is proposed to provide the (001) facets with more photogenerated charge carriers driving by the internal electric field, which is convinced by the photocurrent response and the detection of active species. Due to the accumulation of more negative charge carriers on (001) facet, BiOCl-Ag-E presents outstanding waste-water cleaning and CO2 photoreduction properties. The methodology of material design in this work paves the way for future design of efficient photocatalysts.
