    Cyclic alkyl chains promote the polymer self-assembly and packing orders for solar cells

    No full text
    The micro-structure ordering of the pi-conjugated polymer film self-assembling from solution governs its electrical characteristics and performances for organic electronics. The side chains appended on the conjugated backbone could impact the self-assembling characteristics of the polymer, which show us how to design novel substituents to optimize the polymer arrangement and packing in its solid state. Here, cyclic alkyl chains are proven to be excellent ones for designing of narrow bandgap polymers, the design feature of which with preferential conformations can promote the polymer self-assembly and result in higher degree of lamellar order as well as tighter lamellar packing in the active layer, comparing with linear alkyl chains. The linear ones have poorer ordering in the polymer: fullerene blends as well as in the single crystals of the monomers. The well-organized polymer micro-structures facilitate polymer: fullerene phase separation together with balanced hole/electron transporting, and ultimately, improve the power conversion efficiency impressively compared to linear chains

    Effect of SO2 on Catalytic CO Oxidation Over Nano-Structured, Mesoporous Au/Ce1-xZrxO2 Catalysts

    A series of nano-structured, mesoporous Au/Ce1 - xZrxO2 type catalysts were synthesized by first synthesizing Ce1-xZrxO2 type of support with different degree of Zr substitutions and following sol-gel route. One weight percent of Au was incorporated on these supports using deposition-precipitation method. These synthesized catalysts were characterized in detail by various techniques, and evaluated for their CO oxidation activity. Effect of SO2 poisoning on catalytic CO oxidation activity was also investigated in detail. It was observed that the catalytic activity for CO oxidation reaction depends on the Ce/Zr molar ratio. The effect of SO2 on CO oxidation was less prominent for the Zr incorporated 'Au/Ce0.8Zr0.2O2 (ACZ0.2)' as compared to bare 'Au/CeO2 (AC)' catalyst. In case of ACZ0.2, the activity remains quite stable even after 5 h of SO2 exposure, however, after 12 and 18 h, the activity decreases to 62 and 55%, respectively. Whereas AC catalyst shows rapid decline in catalytic activity from the first hour of SO2 exposure, and continue to decline significantly to 35 and 18% after 12 and 18 h of SO2 exposure, respectively. Multiple regeneration studies of both bare and Zr incorporated catalysts show pronounced improvement/regain in catalytic activity

    A facile template-free method is developed to prepare porous Co– Mo sulfide sub-microtubes with open-ended structures via sulfurization of the Co–Mo precursor in an ethanol solution of CS2. The hollow structure significantly improves the exposure degree of active components, resulting in an ultra-high activity for HDS of dibenzothiophene

    Unexpected Opposite Influences of Para vs Ortho Backbone Fluorination on the Photovoltaic Performance of a Wide-Bandgap Conjugated Polymer

    No full text
    Fluorination density and regioregularity are known factors that have high impact on the performance of organic solar cells; however, due to the limited available fluorination positions, the influence of backbone fluorination positions (such as ortho, para, and meta) has not been well studied. Here we disclose that the fluorination position on a conjugated polymer backbone may have completely opposite effects on its performance. Specifically, compared to the nonfluorinated control, Devices fabricated with the conjugated polymer based on para-fluorinated dibenzo[c,h][2,6]-naphthyridine-5,11-(6H,12H)-dione (DBND) block exhibit improved power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) up to 6.55%, while devices fabricated with the conjugated polymer based on ortho-fluorinated DBND block exhibit much worse PCEs as low as 1.44%, although both polymers have similar HOMO/LUMO levels, bandgaps, and backbone torsion angles. It is found that different fluorination positions result in different dipole moments, intermolecular binding energies, and syn/anti conformer ratios, which eventually lead to the distinct phase-separation behaviors of the corresponding solar cells

    脂肪酶—P450脂肪酸脱羧酶融合蛋白催化的α-烯烃合成

    No full text
    The irreversibly diminishing reserves and the fluctuating price of crude oil, together with the serious concerns on the global environment and energy security, all suggests an unpleasant future of fossil fuel. Within this context, it is imperative to find alternative eco-friendly fuel with properties that highly mimic fossil fuel. Aliphatic alka(e)nes generated from renewable resources via biosynthetic pathways perfectly suits the criteria and represents the ideal “drop-in” biofuels. α-Alkenes are special microbial natural products. These biohydrocarbons have attracted much attention due to their potential application as biofuels and biomaterials. By coupling the activity of lipase and P450 decarboxylase, lipids (i.e. triglycerides) can be transformed into α-alkenes via free fatty acid intermediates. To improve the conversion efficiency of lipids to α-alkenes, in this study, four different versions of fusion proteins of the lipase TlL from Thermomyces lanuginosus and the P450 decarboxylase OleTJE from Jeotgalicoccus sp. ATCC 8456, including FusA (His6-TlL-linker-OleTJE), FusB (TlL-Linker-OleTJE-His6), FusC (His6-OleTJE-linker-TlL) and FusD (OleTJE- linker-TlL-His6), were constructed and comparatively evaluated. The optimal fusion enzyme FusC was able to convert a number of triacylglycerols including trilaurin (C12), trimyristin (C14) and tripalmitin (C16) into corresponding α-alkenes via the coupled hydrolysis and decarboxylation. The 31.7% yield of 1-tridecene from trimyristin demonstrates good substrate channeling effect. Due to the higher catalytic efficiency compared to the mixed TlL and OleTJE, as well as the simplified enzyme purification and hence the lower cost, this fusion strategy may hold significant potential of application

    A Delicately Designed Sulfide Graphdiyne Compatible Cathode for High-Performance Lithium/Magnesium-Sulfur Batteries

    No full text
    Novel sulfur cathodes hold the key to the development of metal-sulfur batteries, the promising candidate of next-generation high-energy-storage systems. Herein, a fascinating sulfur cathode based on sulfide graphdiyne (SGDY) is designed with a unique structure, which is composed of a conducting carbon skeleton with high Li+ mobility and short sulfur energy-storing unites. The SGDY cathode can essentially avoid polysulfide dissolution and be compatible with commercially available carbonate-based electrolytes and Grignard reagent-based electrolytes (all phenyl complex (APC) type electrolytes). Both the assembled Li-S and Mg-S batteries exhibit excellent electrochemical performances including large capacity, superior rate capability, high capacity retention, and high Coulombic efficiency. More importantly, this is the first implementation case of a reliable Mg-S system based on nucleophilic APC electrolytes
