Precipitates evolution in the heat affected zone of Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloy in T6 condition during laser welding
摘要: The precipitates evolution in the heat affected zone of laser-welded Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloy in T6 condition was investigated based on the TEM observation. Some oval and long-rod shape precipitates along [2110]α were observed, which were not involved in precipitation sequence. Compared with isothermal aged precipitates, the overaged β′ phase presented same morphology and size, while size of needle-shape β became much smaller. The width of complete dissolution zone of the β′ is smaller than that of partial dissolution and transformation zone.

Observation of evolution dynamics from bound states to single-pulse states in a passively mode-locked fiber laser
摘要: We report what is, to our knowledge, the first experimental observation of the ultrafast evolution dynamics from bound states (BSs) to single-pulse states (SPSs) by using the dispersive Fourier-transform (DFT) technique. The evolutions from three categories of initial BSs to SPSs are spectrally resolved in real time. Usually, accompanied by complex soliton–soliton interaction and competition, one of the two bound pulses weakens to disappearance, and the other one evolves into SPS. During the transition, the two bound pulses ordinarily depart away from each other with complex changes of relative phase. However, it is found that not all the evolutions are accompanied by the increase of temporal separation between two bound pulses. The obtained results would facilitate a deep understanding of complex dynamics in nonlinear systems and provide valuable data for further theoretical studies.

Carbon quantum dots/TiO2 nanosheets with dominant (001) facets for enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution
摘要: Carbon quantum dots/TiO2 nanosheets with a majority of (001) facet (CQDs/TiO2-001) samples are successfully prepared via a facile method. Compared to TiO2-001 and CQDs/P25, the synthesized CQDs/TiO2-001 presents a remarkably higher photocatalytic activity for H2 evolution with a considerable stability. XRD, XPS, HRTEM, FESEM, FTIR, Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, Fluorescence spectroscopy and UV–visible reflectance spectroscopy are adopted to investigate the morphology, structure and properties of synthesized CQDs/TiO2-001. The mechanism of the improved photocatalytic activity over CQDs/TiO2-001 is also investigated. The results show that the improved photocatalytic activity over CQDs/TiO2-001 can be attributed to the synergistic effects of TiO2-001 and CQDs: the highly exposed (001) facets of TiO2-001 promote the transportation of photogenerated electrons and the loading of CQDs restrains the recombination of electrons-holes on (001) facets. Meanwhile, the visible-light absorption is extended because the CQDs serve as a photosensitizer and sensitize TiO2-001 through the newly formed TieOeC bond between the CQDs and TiO2-001.

G‐C3N4‐SiC‐Pt for Enhanced Photocatalytic H2 Production from Water under Visible Light Irradiation
摘要: The g-C3N4 and SiC has drawn increasing attention for application to visible light photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from water splitting due to their unique band structure and high physicochemical stability. In this study, g-C3N4-SiC heterojunction with loaded noble metal was constructed. The g-C3N4-SiC-Pt composite photocatalysts were successfully prepared by the combination method of a bio-reduction, sol-deposition and calcination. The layers of g-C3N4 were thinned and the SiC and Pt nanoparticles simultaneously were tightly bound to g-C3N4 by calcination in the process of preparing the g-C3N4-SiC-Pt. The heterojunction formed in the interface of SiC and g-C3N4 enhances the separation efficiency of the photogenerated electron-hole pairs. These composite photocatalysts achieve a high hydrogen evolution rate of 595.3 μmol·h-1·g-1 with a 1wt% of deposited Pt, 3.7- and 2.07-fold higher than g-C3N4-bulk and g-C3N4-SiC under visible-light irradiation with a quantum efficiency of 2.76% at 420 nm, respectively.

Few-Layered 1T-MoS2-Modified ZnCoS Solid-Solution Hollow Dodecahedra for Enhanced Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution
摘要: Enhancing solar hydrogen production efficiency essentially relies on the modification of low-cost and highly stable photocatalysts with enhanced light-harvesting ability and promoted charge transfer kinetics. Herein, we report a facile synthetic route to modify the performance of a low-cost metal sulfide semiconductor, consisting of the bimetallic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)-templating and the simultaneous sulfidation of the photocatalyst and loading of MoS2 co-catalyst. The mutual sulfur atom shared by all the transition metal sulfides allowed the formation of ZnCoS solid-solution structure and the stabilization of the metallic 1T-MoS2 phase, contributing to the photocatalytic activity enhancement from several aspects: i) extending the light absorption region from UV to visible and near-infrared light by the incorporation of another transition metal sulfide species, i.e., CoS; ii) achieving abundant catalytically active sites, and high electronic conductivity between the intimately contacted ZnCoS and MoS2 by loading few-layered 1T-MoS2; and iii) further increasing its capability of utilizing the single-photon with relatively higher energy in the UV-visible region by the involvement of a metal-free photosensitizer–Eosin Y (EY). As a consequence, the novel few-layered 1T MoS2-modified hollow Zn0.5Co0.5S rhombic dodecahedra exhibited a high photocatalytic H2 production activity of 15.47 mmol h-1 g-1 with an apparent quantum efficiency of 30.3% at 420 nm and stability with 90% H2 evolution retention even after seven consecutive runs for total 35 h irradiation. This novel approach to prepare advanced materials could be further extended to the phase-controllable preparation of MoS2 and the discovery of other transition metal chalcogenides with high activity and stability in various applications.

Molybdenum Disulfide Catalytic Coatings via Atomic Layer Deposition for Solar Hydrogen Production from Copper Gallium Diselenide Photocathodes
摘要: We demonstrate that applying atomic layer deposition-derived molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) catalytic coatings on copper gallium diselenide (CGSe) thin film absorbers can lead to efficient wide band gap photocathodes for photoelectrochemical hydrogen production. We have prepared a device that is free of precious metals, employing a CGSe absorber and a cadmium sulfide (CdS) buffer layer, a titanium dioxide (TiO2) interfacial layer, and a MoS2 catalytic layer. The resulting MoS2/TiO2/CdS/CGSe photocathode exhibits a photocurrent onset of +0.53 V vs RHE and a saturation photocurrent density of ?10 mA cm?2, with stable operation for >5 h in acidic electrolyte. Spectroscopic investigations of this device architecture indicate that overlayer degradation occurs inhomogeneously, ultimately exposing the underlying CGSe absorber.

Colloidally synthesized defect-rich $$\hbox {MoSe}_{2}$$ MoSe 2 nanosheets for superior catalytic activity
摘要: Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) nanosheets (NSs) with defect-rich and vertically aligned edges are highly advantageous for various catalytic applications. However, colloidal synthesis of defect-rich NSs with thickness variation has been a challenging task. Here, we report a colloidal synthesis of 2H-MoSe2 NSs having a large number of defects and vertically aligned edges, where the thickness is varied by changing the amount of coordinating solvent. The Se-vacancies in these NSs have introduced defect sites which are corroborated by the presence of additional vibration modes in Raman spectra. These NSs exhibit electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction performances with a low overpotential (210–225 mV) at 10 mA cm?2 current density and a small Tafel slope (54–68 mV per decade). Moreover, these MoSe2 NSs are also employed as counter electrodes (CEs) for the fabrication of dye sensitized solar cells via a cost-effective and simplified procedure. The power conversion efficiencies of 7.02 ± 0.18%, comparable with Pt CE (7.84 ± 0.10%) could be routinely achieved. These results demonstrate a novel synthetic strategy to prepare layered TMDs with superior catalytic applications.

A novel photocatalyst, Y2SiO5:Pr3+,Li/Pt-NaNbxTa1?xO3, for highly efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution under visible-light irradiation
摘要: In this work, Y2SiO5:Pr3+,Li, as an excellent up-conversion luminescence agent from visible-light to ultraviolet-light, is synthesized by using sol-gel method. And then, a series of Y2SiO5:Pr3+,Li/NaNbxTa1?xO3 (x = 0.00, 0.25 and 0.50) with different amounts of Y2SiO5:Pr3+,Li are prepared by using hydrothermal method. The prepared samples are characterized by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV–vis absorption spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). The activities of Y2SiO5:Pr3+,Li/Pt-NaNbxTa1?xO3 are investigated through photocatalytic hydrogen evolution in 10 vol% methanol solution under visible-light irradiation. The influences of Nb content in NaNbxTa1?xO3, mass ratio of Y2SiO5:Pr3+,Li and NaNb0.5Ta0.5O3, visible-light irradiation time and reuse-times are examined on the visible-light photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. The experimental results showed that the prepared Y2SiO5:Pr3+,Li/Pt-NaNb0.5Ta0.5O3 with 0.4:1.0 mass ratio of Y2SiO5:Pr3+,Li and NaNb0.5Ta0.5O3 and 0.25 wt% Pt loading displayed a highest evolved hydrogen activity under visible-light irradiation. This study may provide some significant references for large scale photocatalytic hydrogen evolution utilizing solar energy.

Poly(1,4-di(2-thienyl))benzene Facilitating Complete Light-Driven Water Splitting under Visible Light at High pH
摘要: The recent discovery that metal-free polyterthiophene (PTTh) prepared by iodine-vapor-assisted polymerization (IVP) can catalyze the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) when illuminated, and this light-enhanced electrolysis expresses a non-Nernstian relation with pH, provides the foundation for further improvement of the photovoltage of the reaction by engineering the band structure of the light-absorbing polymer. Deviating from an all-thiophene backbone, using poly(1,4-di(2-thienyl))benzene (PDTB) lowers the highest occupied molecular orbital level by ≈0.3 eV compared with polythiophene, and PDTB simultaneously maintains the photoelectrocatalytic properties without an all-thiophene backbone, resulting in very high conversion rate of 600 mmol(H2) h?1 g?1 at 0 V versus the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) at pH 11. PDTB shows the same non-Nernstian behavior as PTTh with increasing onset potential (versus RHE) at higher pH, and the open circuit potential on PDTB under visible light reaches 1.4 V versus RHE at pH 12. The PDTB photocathode thus produces a photovoltage above the theoretical potential for the complete water-splitting (1.229 V) and is indeed able to produce hydrogen in a one-photon-per-electron light-driven water splitting setup with MnOx as the anode at a rate of 6.4 mmol h?1 gPDTB?1.

Effect of conduction band potential on cocatalyst-free plasmonic H <sub/>2</sub> evolution over Au loaded on Sr <sup>2+</sup> -doped CeO <sub/>2</sub>
摘要: There is little information on the effect of the conduction band (CB) position on plasmonic hydrogen (H2) formation under visible light irradiation over gold (Au) nanoparticles supported on semiconductors because there were no appropriate materials for which the CB position gradually changes. In this study, we analyzed the flatband potential of strontium ion (Sr2+)-doped cerium(IV) oxide (CeO2:Sr) and found that the CB position gradually shifted negatively from +0.031 V to ?1.49 V vs. NHE with an increase in the Sr2+ mole fraction. Plasmonic photocatalysts consisting of Au nanoparticles, CeO2:Sr and a platinum (Pt) cocatalyst were prepared and characterized by using X-ray diffraction, UV-vis spectroscopy, and transmission electron spectroscopy. Photocatalytic reaction under visible light irradiation revealed that H2 was produced over Au nanoparticles supported on CeO2:Sr having the CB potential of ?0.61 V vs. NHE and that the negative limit of the CB position for electron injection from Au nanoparticles existed between ?0.61 V and ?1.49 V vs. NHE. We found that Au/CeO2:Sr plasmonic photocatalysts also produced H2 without the aid of a Pt cocatalyst due to the sufficiently negative potential of electrons injected into the CB of CeO2:Sr.
