Perspectives on the adsorption of CO2 on amine-modified silica studied by infrared spectroscopy
摘要： Amine-modified adsorbents are being researched for their potential to capture CO2 from various gas mixtures, and we review how IR spectroscopy has been used to study the associated CO2–amine chemistry. It has been used to reveal that CO2 chemisorbs as ammonium-carbamate ion pairs especially when the amine density is high. Carbamic acid and related other moieties tend to form in parallel to the ion pairs when the amine density is low. The amines have been shown to degrade on cyclic heat treatment. To further study the formation of bicarbonates on reactive adsorption of CO2 and H2O, degradation of the organics, and the use of other supports than silica are suggested.

Preparation of Highly Oriented Porous LiCoO2 Crystal Films via Li-Vapor Crystal Growth Method
摘要： To construct better Li-ion-based batteries, highly oriented porous LiCoO2 crystal film is urgently needed for an active positive electrode. In this study, we prepared such a crystal film via the Li-vapor crystal growth method, which involves a simple reaction between the CoO substrate and Li-vapor. Highly crystalline LiCoO2 particles 2–3 μm in size were grown on the CoO substrate surface with strong relation of their orientation. The <110> and <018>-oriented LiCoO2 particles, which are preferable for Li-ion conduction, were generated on the CoO(110) substrate. On the CoO(111) substrate, LiCoO2 particles were grown with not only the <003> orientation but also the <012> orientation, suggesting that the crystal growth should follow the three-dimensional structure of the CoO and LiCoO2 lattice. Both the prepared LiCoO2 films from the CoO(110) and CoO(111) substrates exhibited stable and superior electrochemical properties for Li-ion battery cycling, indicating that the films will be useful for high-performance Li-ion-based batteries.

Semiconductor Photocatalysis - Materials, Mechanisms and Applications || Photocatalytic Removal of Organics over BiVO4-Based Photocatalysts
摘要： Organic compounds, such as organic dyes and phenols, are the main pollutants in wastewater. In the past years, a large number of studies on the fabrication and photocatalytic organics degradation of BiVO4 and its related materials have been reported in the literature. In this chapter, we shall focus on the advancements in the synthesis and photocatalytic applications of several kinds of BiVO4-based photocatalysts: (i) well-defined morphological BiVO4 photocatalysts, (ii) porous BiVO4 photocatalysts, (iii) heteroatom-doped BiVO4 photocatalysts, (iv) BiVO4-based heterojunction photocatalysts, and (v) supported BiVO4 photocatalysts. We shall discuss the structure–photocatalytic performance relationship of the materials and the involved photocatalytic degradation mechanisms. In addition, we also propose the research trends and technologies for practical applications of the BiVO4-based photocatalytic materials.

Amine-functionalized, porous silica-coated NaYF4:Yb/Er upconversion nanophosphors for efficient delivery of doxorubicin and curcumin
摘要： Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNP) with unique multi-photon excitation photo-luminescence properties have been extensively explored as novel contrast agents for low-background biomedical imaging. There is an increasing interest in employing UCNPs as carrier for drug delivery as these offers a unique opportunity to combine therapy and diagnostics in one platform (theranostics). In the present work, we report microwave-assisted synthesis of hexagonal NaYF4:Yb/Er UCNPs coated with porous silica and functionalized with amine (UCNP@mSiO2). The UCNP@mSiO2 were investigated for controlled delivery of a chemotherapeutic agent, doxorubicin (DOX, hydrophilic), and a chemosensitizing agent, curcumin (CCM, hydrophobic). The drug loading was relatively higher for DOX (17.4%), in comparison to CCM (8.1%). The cumulative drug release from DOX-loaded UCNP@mSiO2 were 30 and 41% at physiological (7.4) and tumoral (6.4) pH, following a pseudo Fickian release pattern, whereas the release from CCM-loaded UCNP@mSiO2 were 27 and 50% at pH 7.4 and 6.4, following a non-Fickian and pseudo-Fickian release patterns. Both DOX and CCM-loaded UCNP@mSiO2 exhibited pH-dependent controlled drug delivery but the effect was more pronounced for CCM, the hydrophobic chemosensitizer. Cell viability assay using HeLa cells showed that DOX-loaded UCNP@mSiO2 inhibit cell growth in a dose-dependent manner, similar to free DOX, but the cell inhibition activity of free CCM was lower than CCM passively entrapped in UCNP@mSiO2. Confocal microscopy studies revealed cell uptake of both the drug by HeLa cells. Thus, UCNP@mSiO2 exhibited the unique capability to deliver hydrophilic and hydrophobic drugs, individually. UCNP@mSiO2 carrier, equipped with theranostic capabilities, may potentially be used for pH-responsive release of chemotherapeutic agents in cancer environment.

摘要： On the example of the por-Si/Ag composites it is demonstrated the ability to control the morphology of the guest material (Ag) by changing the parameters of the porous media (por-Si). Two groups of key parameters of porous materials important for creating composites based on them are discussed. Porous silicon was obtained by electrochemical anodic etching. The introducing Ag into the pores was performed by the cathodic electrochemical deposition. It is observed the increasing the anodizing time is leads to the noticeably changes of wetting angle of por-Si, and, in turn, significantly affects the morphology of Ag clusters. The growth mechanisms of Ag clusters on the por-Si surface and the fields of its potential application are discussed.

Decoration of porous silicon with gold nanoparticles via layer-by-layer nano-assembly for interferometric and hybrid photonic/plasmonic (bio)sensing
摘要： Gold nanoparticle layers (AuNPLs) enable the coupling of morphological, optical, and electrical properties of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with tailored and specific surface topography, making them exploitable in many bio-applications (e.g. biosensing, drug delivery, photothermal therapy). Herein, we report the formation of AuNPLs on porous silicon (PSi) interferometers and distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) for (bio)sensing applications via layer-by-layer (LbL) nano-assembling of a positively charged polyelectrolyte, namely polyallylamine hydrochloride (PAH), and negatively charged citrate-capped AuNPs. Decoration of PSi interferometers with AuNPLs enhances the Fabry-Perot fringe contrast due to increased surface reflectivity, resulting in an augmented sensitivity for both bulk and surface refractive index sensing, using NaCl aqueous solutions to infiltrate the pores (roughly 4.5-fold), in the former, and unspecific bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption on the pore surface (roughly 2.6-fold), in the latter. Sensitivity enhancing is also confirmed for affinity and selective biosensing of streptavidin (roughly 2.5-fold) using a biotinylated polymer, namely, negatively-charged poly(methacrylic acid) (b-PMAA). Further, decoration of PSi DBR with AuNPLs envisages building up a hybrid photonic/plasmonic optical sensing platform. Indeed, both photonic (DBR stop-band) and plasmonic (localized surface plasmon resonance, LSPR) peaks of the hybrid structure are sensitive to changes of bulk refractive index (using 35% glucose aqueous solutions) and BSA unspecific adsorption. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report about the formation of AuNPLs via LbL nano-assembly on PSi for i) the enhancing of the interferometric performance in (bio)sensing applications and ii) the building up of hybrid photonic/plasmonic platforms for sensing and perspective biosensing applications.

Facile fabrication of super-hydrophilic porous graphene with ultra-fast spreading feature and capillary effect by direct laser writing
摘要： This study demonstrated a facile method to fabricate super-hydrophilic 3D porous graphene with high capillary force and ultra-fast spreading characteristic by direct laser writing on KMnO4-coated polyimide (PI) films. Highly oxidized laser-induced graphene (OLIG) was obtained with dominated sp2 carbon referring from Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. In addition, abundant oxygen functional groups and a 3D porous scaffold structure with foam-like flakes were produced based on the results of X-ray photoelectron pattern and scanning electron microscopy. OLIG showed ultra-fast spreading properties that water drops can spread completely within dozens of milliseconds. The morphology and chemical composition also render the new material with good capillary effect. The capillary rate-of-rise test with IR camera demonstrated that the wetted height of OLIG strip can reach around 16 mm within 5 minutes.

Novel ?2-1,3-D-glucan porous microcapsule enveloped folate-functionalized liposomes as a Trojan horse for facilitated oral tumor-targeted co-delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs and quantum dot
摘要： In this study, a new type of β-1,3-D-glucan porous microcapsule (GPM)-enveloped and folate conjugated chitosan-functional liposome (FCL), FCL@GPM, was developed for the potential oral co-delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs and quantum dots (QDs) with facilitated drug absorption and antitumor efficacy. In this dual-particulate system, multiple FCLs serve as the cores for effective loading, folate-mediated tumor-targeting, facilitated intracellular accumulation, and pH-responsive controlled release of chemotherapeutic agents, while a GPM acts as the shell for affording macrophage-mediated tumor selectivity. Gefitinib (GEF) was selected as a chemotherapeutic agent, while acid degradable ZnO QDs were selected due to its dual role both as an anticancer agent for synergistic chemotherapy and as a fluorescent probe for potential cancer cellular imaging. The GEF and ZnO QDs co-loaded FCL@GPMs (GEF/ZnO-FCL@GPMs) have a prolonged release manner with limited release before uptake by intestinal cells. Furthermore, the Peyer’s patches uptake, macrophages uptake, cytotoxicity, and biodistribution of FCL@GPMs were tested. In addition, GEF and ZnO QDs co-loaded FCLs (GEF/ZnO-FCLs) not only have a tumor acidity responsive release property, but also induce a superior cytotoxicity on cancer cells as compared to GEF. Moreover, a 1.75-fold increase in the bioavailability of GEF delivered from GEF/ZnO-FCL@GPMs as compared to its trademarked drug (Iressa?). As a result, GEF/ZnO-FCL@GPMs exerted a superior antitumor efficacy (1.47-fold) as compared to its trademarked drug in mice. Considered together, the developed FCL@GPMs, combining the unique physicochemical and biological benefits of FCLs and GPMs, possess a great potential as an efficient delivery system for the co-delivery of chemotherapeutic agents and quantum dots.

Effects of bluff-body on the thermal performance of micro thermophotovoltaic system based on porous media combustion
摘要： To improve thermophotovoltaic system efficiency, a porous media combustor with a bluff-body as the flame holder was proposed. A two-dimensional numerical simulation of premixed hydrogen/air combustion inside a planar porous media channel with the local thermal non-equilibrium model was conducted. Effects of the bluff-body flame holder on mean wall temperature and system efficiency were examined. By inserting the bluff-body, the blowout limits of the planar porous media combustor for ? = 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2 are increased by 33%, 19%, 12%, 20%, respectively. Numerical results show that the flame stabilization is dominated by flow and heat recirculation. Further analysis reveals the mechanism of heat transfer on flame stabilization due to three heat recirculation paths. Considering the view factor and the external quantum efficiency, the system efficiency with the bluff-body is increased by 14.72% as compared to the one without the bluff-body at ? = 0.8, vin = 4 m/s.

Growth mechanism of porous 3Ca??SiC films prepared via laser chemical vapor deposition
摘要： Porous SiC film is an excellent electrode material for robust micro-supercapacitors used in extremely harsh environments. In one of our previous studies, porous 3C–SiC film with high areal capacitance and high deposition rate was prepared via laser chemical vapor deposition (LCVD). However, it is still urgent to explore the formation mechanism of porous structures using LCVD. In this study, the microstructure of the porous cubic SiC film prepared via LCVD was analyzed in detail using scanning and transmission electron microscopy techniques. The growth mechanism of the deposits has been proposed according to the “growth competing theory” and “shadow effect theory.”
