0D-1D hybrid nanoarchitectonics: tailored design of FeCo@N-C yolk-shell nanoreactors with dual sites for excellent Fenton-like catalysis.

ABSTRACT: Heterogeneous Fenton-like processes are very promising methods of treating organic pollutants through the generation of reactive oxygen containing radicals. Herein, we report novel 0D-1D hybrid nanoarchitectonics (necklace-like structures) consisting of FeCo@N-C yolk-shell nanoreactors as advanced catalysts for Fenton-like reactions. Each FeCo@N-C unit possesses a yolk-shell structure like a nanoreactor, which can accelerate the diffusion of reactive oxygen species and guard the active sites of FeCo. Furthermore, all the nanoreactors are threaded along carbon fibers, providing a highway for electron transport. FeCo@N-C nano-necklaces thereby exhibit excellent performance for pollutant removal via activation of peroxymonosulfate, achieving 100% bisphenol A (k = 0.8308 min^-1) degradation in 10 min with good cycling stability. The experiments and density-functional theory calculations reveal that FeCo dual sites are beneficial for activation of O-O, which is crucial for enhancing Fenton-like processes.

Au nanoparticle@hollow mesoporous carbon with FeCo/graphitic shell nanoparticls as a magnetically recyclable yolk-shell nanocatalyst for catalytic reduction of nitroaromatics.

Project description:We have developed a highly stable and magnetically recyclable yolk-shell nanocatalyst for catalytic reduction of nitroaromatics. This nanocatalyst is composed of a ~13?nm Au nanoparticle encapsulated in a hollow mesoporous carbon (hmC) shell with a diameter of ~120?nm and a thickness of ~15?nm. The hmC shell contains ~6?nm FeCo/graphitic carbon shell (FeCo/GC) nanoparticles. We have synthesized the Au@hmC-FeCo/GC nanocatalyst by thermal decomposition of Fe and Co precursors in silica of a solid core/mesoporous shell structure containing a Au nanoparticle within the core, subsequent ethylene chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and then removal of the silica by treatment with aqueous HF. The Au@hmC-FeCo/GC has superparamagnetism and high saturation magnetization (29.2?emu?g-1) at room temperature. It also shows a type IV sorption isotherm, typical for mesoporous carbon (pore diameter?=?3.5?nm), thereby ensuring ready accessibility to the Au core by substrates. We have shown that the Au@hmC-FeCo/GC catalyses the reduction of 4-nitrophenol and 4-nitrotoluene more efficiently than Au nanoparticles do, can be separated very quickly from the reaction mixture using an magnet, and can be reused for the same reduction reaction at least five times without loss of the initial level of catalytic activity.

0D-1D Hybrid Silicon Nanocomposite as Lithium-Ion Batteries Anodes.

Project description:Lithium ion batteries (LIBs) are the enabling technology for many of the societal changes that are expected to happen in the following years. Among all the challenges for which LIBs are the key, vehicle electrification is one of the most crucial. Current battery materials cannot provide the required power densities for such applications and therefore, it makes necessary to develop new materials. Silicon is one of the proposed as next generation battery materials, but still there are challenges to overcome. Poor capacity retention is one of those drawbacks, and because it is tightly related with its high capacity, it is a problem rather difficult to address with common and scalable fabrication processes. Here we show that combining 0D and 1D silicon nanostructures, high capacity and stability can be achieved even using standard electrode fabrication processes. Capacities as high as 1200 mAh/g for more than 500 cycles at high current densities (2 A/g) were achieved with the produced hybrid 0D/1D electrodes. In this research, it was shown that while 0D nanostructures provide good strain relaxation capabilities, 1D nanomaterials contribute with enhanced cohesion and conductive matrix integrity.

Inside a Shell-Organometallic Catalysis Inside Encapsulin Nanoreactors.

Project description:Compartmentalization of chemical reactions inside cells are a fundamental requirement for life. Encapsulins are self-assembling protein-based nanocompartments from the prokaryotic repertoire that present a highly attractive platform for intracellular compartmentalization of chemical reactions by design. Using single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer and 3D-MINFLUX analysis, we analyze fluorescently labeled encapsulins on a single-molecule basis. Furthermore, by equipping these capsules with a synthetic ruthenium catalyst via covalent attachment to a non-native host protein, we are able to perform in vitro catalysis and go on to show that engineered encapsulins can be used as hosts for transition metal catalysis inside living cells in confined space.

Room-Temperature Solution-Processed 0D/1D Bilayer Electrodes for Translucent CsPbBr3 Perovskite Photovoltaics.

Project description:Materials and processing of transparent electrodes (TEs) are key factors to creating high-performance translucent perovskite solar cells. To date, sputtered indium tin oxide (ITO) has been a general option for a rear TE of translucent solar cells. However, it requires a rather high cost due to vacuum process and also typically causes plasma damage to the underlying layer. Therefore, we introduced TE based on ITO nanoparticles (ITO-NPs) by solution processing in ambient air without any heat treatment. As it reveals insufficient conductivity, Ag nanowires (Ag-NWs) are additionally coated. The ITO-NPs/Ag-NW (0D/1D) bilayer TE exhibits a better figure of merit than sputtered ITO. After constructing CsPbBr3 perovskite solar cells, the device with 0D/1D TE offers similar average visible transmission with the cells with sputtered ITO. More interestingly, the power conversion efficiency of 0D/1D TE device was 5.64%, which outperforms the cell (4.14%) made with sputtered-ITO. These impressive findings could open up a new pathway for the development of low-cost, translucent solar cells with quick processing under ambient air at room temperature.

Photothermally enhanced drug delivery by ultrasmall multifunctional FeCo/graphitic shell nanocrystals.

Project description:FeCo/graphitic carbon shell (FeCo/GC) nanocrystals (?4-5 nm in diameter) with ultrahigh magnetization are synthesized, functionalized, and developed into multifunctional biocompatible materials. We demonstrate the ability of this material to serve as an integrated system for combined drug delivery, near-infrared (NIR) photothermal therapy, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in vitro. We show highly efficient loading of doxorubicin (DOX) by ?-stacking on the graphitic shell to afford FeCo/GC-DOX complexes and pH sensitive DOX release from the particles. We observe enhanced intracellular drug delivery by FeCo/GC-DOX under 20 min of NIR laser (808 nm) induced hyperthermia to 43 °C, resulting in a significant increase of FeCo/GC-DOX toxicity toward breast cancer cells. The synergistic cancer cell killing by FeCo/GC-DOX drug delivery under photothermal heating is due to a ?two-fold enhancement of cancer cell uptake of FeCo/GC-DOX complex and the increased DOX toxicity under the 43 °C hyperthermic condition. The combination of synergistic NIR photothermally enhanced drug delivery and MRI with the FeCo/GC nanocrystals could lead to a powerful multimodal system for biomedical detection and therapy.

Low Threshold Room Temperature Amplified Spontaneous Emission in 0D, 1D and 2D Quantum Confined Systems.

Project description:We address optical amplification properties of quantum nanoparticles of the cadmium selenide/cadmium sulfide (CdSe/CdS) material system with different dimensionality of spatial confinement. CdSe/CdS core/shell quantum dots (QDs), core/shell quantum rods (QRs) and 5 monolayer thick core/crown nanoplatelets (NPLs) at ambient temperature are considered, exhibiting 0D, 1D and 2D spatial confinement dimensionality of the electronic system, respectively. Continuous films of all these nanoparticles are synthesised, and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) spectra are measured under femtosecond pumping at wavelengths of 400 nm and 800 nm, respectively. The lowest threshold is found for NPLs and the highest for QDs, demonstrating the influence of the rod-like and plate-like CdS structures. To emphasize this effect, ASE is demonstrated also in CdSe/CdS QRs and NPLs under nanosecond pumping at 355 nm in the same material films. The amplification has been achieved without use of any feedback structure, emphazising the efficiency of the antenna effect. The pumping threshold fluences for NPLs and QRs are observed to be similar, but no ASE is observed in QDs up to the damage threshold of the nanoparticle layers. The length variation investigation with nanosecond pumping resulted in the gain coefficients of 29 cm-1 and 37 cm-1 for QRs and NPLs, respectively.

Yolk-Shell-Structured Aluminum Phenylphosphonate Microspheres with Anionic Core and Cationic Shell.

Project description:Spherical materials with yolk-shell structure have great potential for a wide range of applications. The main advantage of the yolk-shell geometry is the possibility of introducing different chemical or physical properties within a single particle. Here, a one-step hydrothermal synthesis route for fabricating amphoteric yolk-shell structured aluminum phenylphosphonate microspheres using urea as the precipitant is proposed. The resulting microspheres display 3D sphere-in-sphere architecture with anionic core and cationic shell. The controllable synthesis of aluminum phosphates with various morphologies is also demonstrated. The anionic core and cationic shell of the aluminum phenylphosphonate microspheres provide docking sites for selective adsorption of both cationic methylene blue and anionic binuclear cobalt phthalocyanine ammonium sulphonate. These new adsorbents can be used for simultaneous capture of both cations and anions from a solution, which make them very attractive for various applications such as environmental remediation of contaminated water.

Region-of-interest analyses of one-dimensional biomechanical trajectories: bridging 0D and 1D theory, augmenting statistical power.

Project description:One-dimensional (1D) kinematic, force, and EMG trajectories are often analyzed using zero-dimensional (0D) metrics like local extrema. Recently whole-trajectory 1D methods have emerged in the literature as alternatives. Since 0D and 1D methods can yield qualitatively different results, the two approaches may appear to be theoretically distinct. The purposes of this paper were (a) to clarify that 0D and 1D approaches are actually just special cases of a more general region-of-interest (ROI) analysis framework, and (b) to demonstrate how ROIs can augment statistical power. We first simulated millions of smooth, random 1D datasets to validate theoretical predictions of the 0D, 1D and ROI approaches and to emphasize how ROIs provide a continuous bridge between 0D and 1D results. We then analyzed a variety of public datasets to demonstrate potential effects of ROIs on biomechanical conclusions. Results showed, first, that a priori ROI particulars can qualitatively affect the biomechanical conclusions that emerge from analyses and, second, that ROIs derived from exploratory/pilot analyses can detect smaller biomechanical effects than are detectable using full 1D methods. We recommend regarding ROIs, like data filtering particulars and Type I error rate, as parameters which can affect hypothesis testing results, and thus as sensitivity analysis tools to ensure arbitrary decisions do not influence scientific interpretations. Last, we describe open-source Python and MATLAB implementations of 1D ROI analysis for arbitrary experimental designs ranging from one-sample t tests to MANOVA.

Efficient photo-assisted Fenton-like reaction of yolk–shell CuSe(Cu2Se)/g-C3N4 heterojunctions for methylene blue degradation† † Electronic supplementary information (ESI) available. See DOI: https://doi.org/10.1039/d2ra08309d

Project description:Herein, a CuSe(Cu2Se) yolk–shell structure (CC) was synthesized when room temperature was 25 degree Celsius using Cu2O as a soft template, and the g-C3N4/CuSe(Cu2Se) heterojunction (CC-G) was formed by coupling appropriate amounts of g-C3N4 in the selenization process to provide a novel, green, economical, and efficient photo-Fenton catalytic material. Photo-Fenton degradation experiments proved that in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a small amount of g-C3N4 hybridization on Cu-based Fenton catalysts significantly improved methylene blue (MB) degradation. The suitable amount of g-C3N4 hybridization was selected according to the degradation efficiency. The mass of g-C3N4 constituted 20% of the mass of the Cu2O soft template. The composite material prepared using this combination (CC-G-20) exhibited the best MB degradation performance. The MB degradation efficiency in the CC-G-20/H2O2/visible light system was almost 98.3% after 60 min, which is higher than those of the parent materials (g-C3N4, 12.7%; CC, 58.6%) and had cyclic stability. The catalytic system can also stably degrade MB under dark conditions, where the MB degradation was almost 82% after 60 min. The heterojunction prevented excessive electrons and holes (e− and h+) recombination, stabilizing the reactive active substance of hydroxyl in the photo-Fenton-like catalytic system. Electron paramagnetic resonance and photoluminescence experiments confirmed this inference. CuSe(Cu2Se)/g-C3N4 is used to degrade methylene blue as a photosynergistic Fenton catalytic material.

FCIQMC-Tailored Distinguishable Cluster Approach: Open-Shell Systems.

Project description:A recently proposed tailored approach based on the distinguishable cluster method and the stochastic FCI solver, FCIQMC [J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2020, 16, 5621], is extended to open-shell molecular systems. The method is employed to calculate spin gaps of various Fe(II) complexes, including a Fe(II) porphyrin model system. Both distinguishable cluster and fully relaxed CASSCF natural orbitals were used in this work as reference for the subsequent tailored distinguishable cluster calculations. The distinguishable cluster natural orbitals occupation numbers were also used as an aid to the selection of the active space. The effect of the active space sizes and of the explicit correlation correction (F12) onto the predicted spin gaps is investigated. The tailored distinguishable cluster with singles and doubles yields consistently more accurate results compared to the tailored coupled cluster with singles and doubles.
