S, N-doped carbon quantum dots enhanced Luminol-Mn(IV) chemiluminescence reaction for detection of uric acid in biological fluids
摘要: Herein, S, N doped carbon quantum dots (S, N- CQDs) were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method and characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis. The influence of as-prepared CQDs was studied on the luminol- Mn(IV) CL reaction. The results indicated that S, N-CQDs remarkably increase the CL intensity of this reaction (about 13 fold). Furthermore, it was found that the CL intensity of S,N-CQDs–luminol-Mn(IV) system was significantly declined by uric acid. We exploited the amplified CL system to design a novel probe for the detection of uric acid. The CL intensity of S,N-CQDs–luminol-Mn(IV) reaction was proportional to the logarithm of uric acid concentration in the range of 0.05 to 1.5 μM, with a limit of detection of 17 nM. Based on these results, a sensitive and straightforward CL method was developed for the analysis of uric acid in biological fluids with satisfactory results.

Novel Combined Spectral Indices Derived from Hyperspectral and Laser-Induced Fluorescence LiDAR Spectra for Leaf Nitrogen Contents Estimation of Rice
摘要: Spectra of re?ectance (Sr) and ?uorescence (Sf) are signi?cant for crop monitoring and ecological environment research, and can be used to indicate the leaf nitrogen content (LNC) of crops indirectly. The aim of this work is to use the Sr-Sf features obtained with hyperspectral and laser-induced ?uorescence LiDAR (HSL, LIFL) systems to construct novel combined spectral indices (NCIH-F) for multi-year rice LNC estimation. The NCIH-F is in a form of FWs*Φ + GSIs*Φ, where Φ is the Sr-Sf features, and FWs and GSIs are the feature weights and global sensitive indices for each characteristic band. In this study, the characteristic bands were chosen in di?erent ways. Firstly, the Sr-Sf characteristics which can be the intensity or derivative variables of spectra in 685 and 740 nm, have been assigned as the Φ value in NCIH-F formula. Simultaneously, the photochemical re?ectance index (PRI) formed with 531 and 570 nm was modi?ed based on a variant spectral index, called PRIfraction, with the Sf intensity in 740 nm, and then compared its potential with NCIH-F on LNC estimation. During the above analysis, both NCIH-F and PRIfraction values were utilized to model rice LNC based on the arti?cial neural networks (ANNs) method. Subsequently, four prior bands were selected, respectively, with high FW and GSI values as the ANNs inputs for rice LNC estimation. Results show that FW- and GSI-based NCIH-F are closely related to rice LNC, and the performance of previous spectral indices used for LNC estimation can be greatly improved by multiplying their FWs and GSIs. Thus, it can be included that the FW- and GSI-based NCIH-F constitutes an e?cient and reliable constructed form combining HSL (Sr) and LIFL (Sf) data together for rice LNC estimation.

Full Efficiency Recovery in Hole-Transporting Layer-Free Perovskite Solar Cells With Free-Standing Dry-Carbon Top-Contacts
摘要: Carbon-based top electrodes for hole-transporting-layer-free perovskite solar cells (PSCs) were made by hot press (HP) transfer of a free-standing carbon-aluminum foil at 100?C and at a pressure of 0.1 MPa on a methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3) layer. Under these conditions, the perovskite surface was preserved from interaction with the solvent. Over a timescale of 90 days, HP-PSCs were systematically compared to reference cells with carbon-based top electrodes deposited by doctor blading (DB). We found that all the photovoltaic parameters recorded in HP-PSCs during time under ambient conditions settled on values systematically higher than those measured in the reference DB-PSCs, with ef?ciency stabilized at around 6% within the ?rst few measurements. On the other hand, in DB-PSCs, a long-lasting (~14 days) degrading transient of the performances was observed, with a loss of ef?ciency from an initial ~8% to ~3%. Moreover, in HP-PSCs, a systematic day-by-day recovery of the ef?ciency after operation was observed (1~2%) by leaving the cell under open circuit, a nitrogen environment, and dark conditions. Noteworthily, a full recovery of all the parameters was observed at the end of the experiment, while DB-PSCs showed only a partial recovery under the same conditions. Hence, the complete release of solvent from the carbon contact, before an interface is established with the perovskite layer, offers a de?nite advantage through the long period of operation in preventing irreversible degradation. Our ?ndings indeed highlight the crucial role of the interfaces and their feasible preservation under nitrogen atmosphere.

Study on Nitrogen-Doped Graphene Ink and Its Effects on the Heat Dissipation for the LED Lamps
摘要: This study explored the application of nitrogen-doped graphene (NDG) ink to the coating of light-emitting diode (LED) lamps for the thermal management. Unlike the general solutions of graphene, the NDG ink used in this study was tuned with high electrical resistance and quietly suitable for the application of the LED lamp coating, which prevented the short circuit problem; besides, the NDG ink also provided a high heat dissipation effect to improve the performance of the LED lamp. The investigation of adhesion and resistance for the NDG ink were conducted by the cross-cut test and the four-point probe resistance measurement, respectively. Three types of LED lamps including the original lamp, fin-removed lamp, and NDG-ink coated (NGC) lamp were tested for the actual operating temperature distribution by K-type thermal couples and for the lumens by the integrating sphere. The results showed that the heat dissipation of the NGC lamp was better than that of the original lamp. In addition, the inspections for the properties of NDG powder were also performed by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and Raman spectroscopy. According to the inspectional results, the NDG powder had a percentage of nitrogen of about 3.8% by XPS, a surface roughness Rq of 0.9 nm by AFM, and over ten layers by Raman analysis. It showed that the NDG powder in this study belonged to the type of multi-layer graphene.

MoS2 Nanosheets Sensitized with Quantum Dots for Room-Temperature Gas Sensors
摘要: The Internet of things for environment monitoring requires high performance with low power-consumption gas sensors which could be easily integrated into large-scale sensor network. While semiconductor gas sensors have many advantages such as excellent sensitivity and low cost, their application is limited by their high operating temperature. Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials, typically molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets, are emerging as promising gas-sensing materials candidates owing to their abundant edge sites and high in-plane carrier mobility. This work aims to overcome the sluggish and weak response as well as incomplete recovery of MoS2 gas sensors at room temperature by sensitizing MoS2 nanosheets with PbS quantum dots (QDs). The huge amount of surface dangling bonds of QDs enables them to be ideal receptors for gas molecules. The sensitized MoS2 gas sensor exhibited fast and recoverable response when operated at room temperature, and the limit of NO2 detection was estimated to be 94 ppb. The strategy of sensitizing 2D nanosheets with sensitive QD receptors may enhance receptor and transducer functions as well as the utility factor that determine the sensor performance, offering a powerful new degree of freedom to the surface and interface engineering of semiconductor gas sensors.

Development of All-Diamond Scanning Probes Based on Faraday Cage Angled Etching Techniques
摘要: We are proposing a novel fabrication method for single crystal diamond scanning probes for atomic force microscopy (AFM), exploiting Faraday cage angled etching (FCAE). Common, oxygen-based, inductively coupled plasma (ICP) dry etching processes for diamond are limited with respect to the achievable geometries. The fabrication of freestanding micro- and nanostructures is therefore challenging. This is a major disadvantage for several application fields e.g., for realizing scanning magnetometry probes based on nitrogen vacancy (NV) centres and capable of measuring magnetic fields at the nanoscale. Combining a planar design with FCAE and state-of-the-art electron beam lithography (EBL) yields a reduction of process complexity and cost compared to the established fabrication technology of micro-opto-mechanical diamond devices. Here, we report on the direct comparison of both approaches and present first proof-of-concept planar-FCAE-prototypes for scanning probe applications.

Determination of chondroitin sulfate in synovial fluid and drug by ratiometric fluorescence strategy based on carbon dots quenched FAM-labeled ssDNA
摘要: Chondroitin sulfate (CS) plays an increasingly important role in clinical settings and pharmacy quality control. However, sensitive and simple methods for CS detection remain limited. In this work, positively charged nitrogen doped carbon dots (P-NCDs) with internal luminescence and quenching property to FAM-labeled random-sequence ssDNA (F-ssDNA) were prepared by a simple heating method. P-NCDs attached and quenched F-ssDNA through electrostatic interaction to form the system of P-NCDs and F-ssDNA (P-NCDs/F-ssDNA) with retained fluorescence intensity of P-NCDs. The highly negatively charged CS reacted electrostatically with P-NCDs and then replaced F-ssDNA in P-NCDs/F-ssDNA to recover the fluorescence intensity of the original quenched F-ssDNA while retaining the internal fluorescence intensity of P-NCDs. Thus, by using restored F-ssDNA as the signal controlled by adding CS to P-NCDs/F-ssDNA, a ratiometric fluorescence strategy based on the retained fluorescence of P-NCDs as reference signal was fabricated through synchronous fluorescence spectrometry for the sensitive detection of CS. Under the optimal experimental conditions, a linear equation for CS was obtained for CS concentration within the range of 0.05–2.0 μg/mL. The method was also successfully applied for the accurate determination of CS in joint fluid samples of arthritic patients, chondroitin sulfate tablets, and chondroitin sulfate eye drops, suggesting its appreciable application potential in the clinic.

Nitrogen-doped graphene-cerium oxide (NG-CeO <sub/>2</sub> ) photocatalyst for the photodegradation of methylene blue in waste water
摘要: This study shows a facile approach for the preparation of CeO2 nanoparticles decorated with porous nitrogen-doped graphene (NG) nanosheets for effective photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB). NG nanosheets were first synthesized using a hydrothermal method and then nitrogen-doped graphene-cerium oxide (NG-CeO2) was prepared through mixing of cerium nitrate with different concentrations of NG under ultrasonication followed by hydrothermal treatment. The synthesized nanocomposites were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The photocatalytic activity of the synthesized nanocomposites was analyzed against MB dye. Results showed that the nanocomposites of NG-CeO2 have an average particle size of 20 nm. The as-prepared NG-CeO2 nanocomposites exhibited outstanding photocatalytic activity for dye degradation under visible light irradiation, which could be attributed to synergistic effects between the NG nanosheets and CeO2. The quantum of photodegradation increases with the increase of the NG content in the nanocomposites.

Thermal expansion of α-nitrogen ice in terahertz spectroscopy
摘要: The volumetric thermal expansion coef?cient of a-nitrogen (N2) ice is calculated for temperatures between 10 and 25 K using its terahertz transmission data and a phonon model. The observed dip in terahertz transmission around 1.45 THz is modeled as phonon absorption based on an intermolecular potential which is sum of the Lennard-Jones potential and quadrupole–quadrupole interaction term. Using this model and our experimental data, the lattice parameters of a-N2 ice were obtained.

Controllable nitrogen doping and specific surface from freestanding TiO2@carbon nanofibers as anodes for lithium ion battery
摘要: Further modification of carbon and transition metal composites has become a hot spot in the preparation of anode materials for lithium ion battery, including various morphologies, nitrogen doping and porous introduction. However, the synergistic effect of specific surface area and nitrogen doping content of composite materials on the electrochemical performance as anode materials for lithium ion batteries has not been revealed. In this paper, the carbon nanofibers loaded with titanium dioxide are fabricated via electrospinning method followed by calcination process with simple addition admixture of diisopropyl azodiformate in precursor solution. The pores are introduced into the composite with controllable nitrogen doping and surface area simultaneously. The specific capacity of titanium dioxide @carbon nanofibers has been increased from 192.2 mAh g?1 to 336 mAh g?1 due to the increased nitrogen content of the composite from 7.18% to 10.21%, and elevated specific surface area from 67.23 to 111.15 m2 g?1, which can endow the composite superior conductivity and more active sites. The capacity contribution of the total specific capacity has decreased from 60.8% to 44.7% compared with original sample, proving that increasing diffusion controlled Faradaic Li-ion insertion origins from nitrogen doping.
