Dielectric Relaxation, Electrical Conductivity, Dielectric Permittivity, and Correlated Barrier Hopping Conduction Mechanism Analysis in Ag Doped Bi2S3 at Low Temperatures

AbstractPure and 6% Ag doped bismuth sulfide (Bi2S3) were synthesized via solid‐state reaction method at 500 °C. The X‐ray diffraction method confirmed the orthorhombic phase with average crystallite size ∼25 nm and average lattice strain ∼0.5% and ∼0.6% for pure and 6% Ag doped Bi2S3. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) images confirmed nanobelt morphology. A direct bandgap of ∼3.3 and ∼3.4 eV for pure and doped Bi2S3 was estimated using UV–vis spectroscopy, respectively. AC measurements were performed from 200 Hz to 2 MHz at temperature 223–298 K. Investigation of Nyquist plots of 6% Ag doped Bi2S3 nanobelts suggested space‐charge‐dependent behavior and indicated an negative temperature coefficient of resistance (NTCR). AC conductivity adhered to Jonscher's power law in which the decreasing trend of s‐parameter with increasing temperature indicates correlated barrier hopping conduction mechanism. From this model, hopping distance (∼10−9–10−11 m) and density of states (∼1022–1023 eV−1 cm−3) were estimated. The dielectric permittivity exhibited dispersion at low frequencies due to the combined effect of electronic, ionic, and interfacial polarizations. Presence of two semicircular arcs in the complex modulus analysis suggested the presence of both grain and grain‐boundary effects.

A density functional theory study of a series of symmetric dibenzylideneacetone analogues as potential chemical UV-filters

The aim of this research was to provide valuable insights on symmetrical α,β-unsaturated ketones as potential chemical ultraviolet (UV) filters from experimental data and theoretical aspects. Towards this end, density functional theory (DFT/B3LYP) calculations on a series of symmetrical α,β-unsaturated ketones, (1E,4E)-1,5-bis[4-(R)phenyl]penta-1,4-diene-3-one (R = methylthio, 1; R = dimethylamino, 2; R = ethyl, 3), were performed to determine the effect of different electron-donating substituents on their stability when exposed to solar UV radiation. Their molecular structures, and UV-visible, infrared (IR) and NMR (1H and 13C) spectra were theoretically obtained from their optimized geometries with the B3LYP/6-311++ G (d, p) basis set and were compared with the experimental results. Conformational analysis was performed and the most stable conformer of each compound was identified as the trans-trans conformer, which was further supported by experimental NMR data. The UV spectra and effect of solvent polarity and proticity were studied by the time-dependent-DFT (TD-DFT) approach with the B3LYP/6-311++G (d, p) level of theory. Furthermore, various molecular parameters like dipole moment, frontier molecular orbital (FMO) energies, ΔEHOMO-LUMO gap, lifetime of the first excited state (τ), global chemical reactivity descriptors, and natural bond orbital analysis were predicted at the same level of theory and compared with the experimental data. Inspection of the active FMOs revealed the photoinstability trends of 1 and 3 under UV irradiation. However, introducing a -N(CH3)2 substituent to 2 at the para-position improves its photostability towards simulated UV radiation. Thus, compound 2 has the potential to provide efficient broad-spectrum protection against UV radiation. This work has shown that molecular modelling strategies can assist to rationalize experimental findings and also support the identification of photoproducts of 1 and 3.

Surface Ligands for Perovskite Quantum Dots.

The combination of the quantum confinement effect of quantum dots (QDs) and unique photoelectric properties of perovskite semiconductors make perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) a promising candidate for photoelectric devices. To truly unlock their potential, a deep understanding of structure-property relationship is paramount. Among the various factors influencing this relationship, the role of surface ligands cannot be overstated. The polarity, conductivity, stability, and interaction effects of these ligands with QD surfaces create complicated ligand-QDs relationships, which greatly influences the successful synthesis of QDs. In essence, the surface chemistry of ligands serves as a critical determinant in shaping the properties of both the resulting QDs and QD-based devices. To address this, our paper introduces an innovative approach to studying ligands, utilizing their inherent functional groups as a classification criterion. It is begun by discussing the types of surface defects of PQDs and the functional groups used for passivation, emphasizing the importance of analyzing ligands based on their functional groups. Then the passivation mechanisms of ligands with various functional groups and their impact on enhancing QD performance are delved into. Ultimately, this paper summarizes and offers several design principles and rules for PQDs surface ligands that can be applied in most scenarios.

A seaweed-inspired separator for high performance Zn metal batteries: Boosting kinetics and confining side-reactions

Uncontrolled dendrite growth, sluggish reaction kinetics, and drastic side reactions on the anode-electrolyte interface are the main obstacles that restrict the application prospect of aqueous zinc-ion batteries. Traditional glass fiber (GF) separator with chemical inertness is almost ineffective in restricting these challenges. Herein, inspired by the ionic enrichment behavior of seaweed plants, a facile biomass species, anionic sodium alginate (SA), is purposely decorated on the commercial GF separator to tackle these issues towards Zn anode. Benefiting from the abundant zincophilic functional groups and superior mechanical strength properties, the as-obtained SA@GF separator could act as ion pump to boost the Zn2+ transference number (0.68), reduce the de-solvation energy barrier of hydrated Zn2+, and eliminate the undesired concentration polarization effect, which are verified by experimental tests, theoretical calculations, and finite element simulation, respectively. Based on these efficient modulation mechanisms, the SA@GF separator can synchronously achieve well-aligned Zn deposition and the suppression of parasitic side-reactions. Therefore, the Zn||Zn coin cell integrated with SA@GF separator could yield a prolonged calendar lifespan over 1230 h (1 mA cm−2 and 1 mAh cm−2), exhibiting favorable competitiveness with previously reported separator modification strategies. Impressively, the Zn-MnO2 full and pouch cell assembled with the SA@GF separator also delivered superior cycling stability and rate performance, further verifying its practical application effect. This work provides a new design philosophy to stabilize the Zn anode from the aspect of separator.

Modulating optical and electrical properties of chemically synthesized ZnMn2O4 nanoparticles through crystallinity: Integrating theoretical and experimental insights

Theoretical and experimental analyses of zinc manganite (ZnMn2O4) nanoparticles were carefully conducted for in-depth exploration of their electronic and optical properties. Nanosized particles, approximately 11–15 nm in size, were synthesized using a post-sintering assisted co-precipitation method. Theoretical calculations using Rietveld refinement were conducted to accurately predict crystal parameters and simulate XRD patterns consistent with experimental XRD observations. UV–visible absorption spectra and Tauc plot analysis indicated a bandgap ranging from 0.65 to 0.79 eV, while photoluminescence spectra revealed the most intense peak at 466 nm, possibly arising from exciton recombination processes or defect-related emissions. Density function theory (DFT) calculations were employed to compute the band structure and density of states of ZnMn2O4, resulting in a calculated bandgap of 0.73 eV, which aligned closely with the experimental findings. Moreover, DFT calculation identified atomic-level transitions responsible for absorption peaks in the material. Comprehensive evaluations of the mechanical and optical properties, integrating theoretical insights with experimental data, provided a holistic understanding of the intricate electronic and optical characteristics of ZnMn2O4. Furthermore, frequency and temperature-dependent dielectric properties demonstrated the MWS-type polarization effect. Besides, the activation energy of 0.582–0.553 eV, calculated using the Arrhenius plot, was good in accordance with our dielectric analysis, solidifying the potential of this nanomaterial for advanced optoelectronic applications.

Engineering morphological architecture of superhydrophobic/hydrophilic composite membrane for efficient photothermal membrane distillation

The viability and efficacy of photothermal membrane distillation (PMD) is still uncertain due to its inherent energy-efficiency and throughput mass flux limitation. Herein, we develop a delamination-free multilayer photothermal membrane that simultaneously imparts slashed mass transfer resistance, enhanced photothermal effect and strong water-repellency by engineering morphological architecture. Using a one-step programmed dual-channel electrospinning followed by an electrostatic spraying technique, the proposed membrane is composited by a thick water-intrudable hydrophilic supporting layer, a thin hydrophobic layer, and an ultrathin Ti3C2Tx MXene-engineered superhydrophobic layer. It is proposed that the morphological architecture engineering could render mitigation of mass transfer resistance, firm water-repellency, and robust heat localization. Hence, in addition to superior flux of 1.27 L m−2 h−1 (inlet feed/permeate at 20/20 °C) and 15.89 L m−2 h−1 (inlet feed/permeate at 50/20 °C), prominent solar efficiency (76.34 % and 96.45 %) of the proposed composite membrane (DS15-M) also was achieved during PMD operation (1.0 kW m−2). Moreover, the DS15-M showcased not only robust wetting resistance and long-term consistency, but also obviously mitigated temperature polarization effect during the PMD operation. This research work emphasizes the important role of morphological architecture in rendering performance enhancement, which is a significant implication in engineering membrane architecture for PMD application.

Exploration of the regulatory mechanism of pulsed electric field on the aggregation behavior of soybean protein isolates

As an emerging protein modification technology, pulsed electric field (PEF) technology in modifying soybean protein isolates (SPI) suffers from unclear mechanism and controversial changes in aggregation structure. To address these issues, the effects of PEF treatment with different electric field intensities (5–30 kV/cm) on the aggregation behavior and spatial structure of SPI were investigated. The results showed that the SPI aggregates exhibited a trend of depolymerization followed by reaggregation with the increase of PEF intensity. At 10 and 15 kV/cm, the polarization effect of PEF induced the unfolding of the tertiary structure of SPI, leading to the enhancement of the electronegativity of the side chains, and the electrostatic repulsive force between the molecules promoted the depolymerization of SPI aggregates. However, with the withdrawal of PEF, the structure of the SPI was partially reversible, resulting in a limited depolymerization effect. When the PEF intensity reached 20 kV/cm and above, SPI underwentstructure unfolding, subunit dissociation, continuous exposure of hydrophobic groups and sulfhydryl groups, and ultimately reaggregation mediated by hydrophobic interactions and disulfide bonding, resulting in the formation of high molecular weight soluble and insoluble protein aggregates. In addition, the formation of free radicals under strong electric fields (≥20 kV/cm) accelerated the oxidation of SPI and promoted the rapid formation of disulfide bonds. This study provides a theoretical basis for the targeted regulation of SPI aggregation structure by PEF.

3D-printed gradient conductivity and porosity structure for enhanced absorption-dominant electromagnetic interference shielding

The application of 3D printing for the development of electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials is currently constrained by a limited range of material options and design schemes. In this work, we developed conductivity-modulated polylactic acid (PLA)-MXene composite filaments for fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing, demonstrating excellent printability and durability. Utilizing these filaments, we propose a design scheme focused on absorption-dominant EMI shielding materials. Our design features non-conductive PLA with larger pores at the incident surface, transitioning to layers with increasing conductivity and decreasing pore sizes. This gradient structure minimizes reflection by providing impedance matching and enhances absorption by extending the propagation path of EM waves through multiple reflections and scattering within the pores. Additionally, interfacial polarization effects between air, PLA, and MXene nanoflakes strengthen the absorption mechanisms. Both simulation and experimental results confirm that the combined gradient conductivity and pore size structures significantly improve EMI shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) and absorptivity, achieving an EMI SE of 65 dB and an absorptivity of 0.76 in the X-band. Our findings underscore its potential to create adaptable, high-performance EMI shields suitable for complex geometries and reducing secondary interference.

Comparison of modeling of the polar cap absorption effect with observations at the AARI ground-based network

An elliptical model of cutoff for solar cosmic rays (SCR) at high latitudes has been calculated for SCR events and geomagnetic storms that occurred in February, March, and September 2014, June 2015, and September 2017 in order to predict the polar cap absorption (PCA) effect. The prediction is compared with observations of the PCA effect at the AARI network of six ionosondes, located in the north of Russia in a wide range of longitudes from 30 to 170 and magnetic latitudes from 56 to 64. We examine the dependence of the cutoff latitude on the magnetic storm strength, as well as the effect of additional ionization of the dayside and nightside ionosphere by SCR protons and electrons. The model demonstrates a satisfactory statistical accuracy up to 0.83 for the PCA prediction. We discuss prospects for further improvement of the elliptical model, such as consideration of the impact of SCRs of higher energies and inclusion of the PC index of energy flux into the polar cap.

Synthesis and optimization of chitosan-incorporated semisynthetic polymer/α-Fe2O3 nanoparticle hybrid polymer to explore optimal efficacy of fluorescence resonance energy transfer/charge transfer for Co(II) and Ni(II) sensing

Initially, four synthetic fluorescent polymers (SFPs) are synthesized from α-methacrylic acid and methanolacrylamide monomers carrying –C(=O)OH and –C(=O)NH subfluorophores, respectively. Among SFPs, ∼1:1 incorporation of subfluorophores in the optimum SFP3 is explored by spectroscopic analyses. Subsequently, chitosan is incorporated in SFP3 to produce five semi-synthetic fluorescent polymers (SSFPs). The maximum incorporation of chitosan in SSFP4 is supported by different spectroscopies. In SSFP4, strong electrostatic interactions among polar functionalities of chitosan and synthetic polymer favor resonance-associated charge transfer (RCT) from SSFP4-(amide) to SSFP4-(canonical). Finally, three hybrid fluorescent polymers (HFPs) are fabricated encapsulating iron-oxide nanoparticle within SSFP4. The maximum proportion of hematite (α-Fe2O3) phase in HFPs is explored by spectroscopic, magnetometric, microscopic, and light scattering studies. HFP2 shows local/RCT/fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) emission at 393/460/570 nm. In HFP2, FRET, RCT, and ratiometric pH-sensing within 3.0–6.5 phenomena are explored by solvent polarity effects, time-correlated single photon counting, quantum yield measurements, alongside I431/I460 vs pH plots. RCT and FRET emissions of HFP2 are utilized for selective sensing of Co(II)/Ni(II) with limits of detection of 4.990 ppb (460 nm)/4.353 ppb (570 nm) and 45.041 ppb (428 nm)/29.617 ppb (527 nm) in organic and aqueous solutions, respectively.

Experimental study of the effect of oil polarity on smart waterflooding in carbonate reservoirs

This study investigates the influence of oil polarity on interfacial tension (IFT), contact angle, oil recovery, and effluent pH in smart water and Low-salinity water injection. The results indicate that the interaction between the hydration shell of ions and the polar components (PCs) of oil is crucial. Increasing oil polarity enhances the potential for interaction with the hydration shell of ions, leading to reduced IFT, altered wettability, and improved oil recovery; which could be boosted by the contribution of a higher number of anions in the smart water bulk through the enhancement of their interaction with the PCs (especially acidic components) of oil. The study demonstrates that increasing the SO42− concentration in seawater increased oil recovery for oils with higher acid component content, as indicated by total acid number values of 0.87, 0.99, and 1.32 mgKOH/g, the tertiary oil recovery factors for these oils were 61.10%, 69.82%, and 87.09%, respectively. The effluent pH results align with the findings of contact angle and oil recovery, confirming the dominant influence of anions on oil recovery. The interaction between the PCs of oil and the hydration shell of ions is thus highlighted as a critical factor in the observed outcomes.

Surface-iodine-grafting-induced local electric field drives charge separation of CdBiO2Br for excellent photocatalytic antibiotic degradation

Photocatalytic technology has demonstrated immense potential in environmental purification, particularly in the degradation of antibiotics that pose serious health risks. However, the rapid recombination of photogenerated charge carriers and the limited light absorption capacity, which are major obstacles, severely hinder the photocatalytic degradation activity. Herein, the surface halogen-grafting strategy is introduced to address these issues in a Sillén-related layer-structured photocatalyst, CdBiO2Br (CBOB). The iodine-grafted CBOB nanosheets deliver a superb tetracycline hydrochloride photodegradation efficiency of 72.36 % within one hour, which is 2.44 times higher than that of the original CBOB. Additionally, they demonstrated a broad-spectrum degradation capability against various antibiotics and phenolic pollutants, such as ciprofloxacin, chloramphenicol hydrochloride, bisphenol A, highlighting their practical and industrial value. Mechanistic studies indicated that the high electronegativity of iodine could induce a surface dipole polarization effect to form localized electric fields that efficiently drive the separation of photogenerated electrons and holes, and, on the other hand, improve light absorption, which profoundly boosts the photocatalytic degradation process, as corroborated by experimental and theoretical results collectively. This work provides a foundation for understanding the highly electronegative halogen grafting-induced surface local electric field and offers new insights for the future design of high-performance environmental purification materials.

Enhancing interfacial polarization and electrorheological effect of crosslinked poly(ionic liquid)s by doping aniline oligomer

Poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs) are providing potential platforms to develop next generation water-free polyelectrolyte-based electrorheological (ER) fluids because they well overcome water sensitivity problem of classic polyelectrolyte-based ER fluids by incorporating with large size fluoric counterions. Especially, crosslinked PILs (CPILs) can further broaden the working temperature range of ER effect compared to linear PILs. However, the crosslinking network easily restricts the ion dissociation due to decreased dielectric constant and thus weakens ion movement-induced interfacial polarization and ER effect. In this paper, we propose a way to improve ion dissociation and ion movement-induced interfacial polarization of CPILs by doping polar aniline oligomer to improve the dielectric constant of CPILs. Several kinds of CPILs are synthesized and then aniline oligomer is doped into CPILs by swelling method. The structure of doped CPILs is characterized by different techniques, the dielectric property of ER fluids of doped CPIL particles in silicone oil is analyzed by dielectric spectroscopy, and the ER effect of ER fluids of doped CPIL particles is measured by rheometer under electric fields. It shows that doping aniline oligomer can increase the dielectric intensity and decrease the relaxation time and corresponding activation energy of interfacial polarization and improve the ER effect of CPILs with a relatively loose crosslinking network, while doping aniline oligomer has no contribution to the interfacial polarization and ER effect of CPILs with a relatively tight crosslinking network.

The Key Descriptors for Predicting the Exciton Binding Energy of Organic Photovoltaic Materials

Exciton binding energy (Eb) is a key parameter to determine the mechanism and performance of organic optoelectronic devices. Small Eb benefits to reduce the interfacial energy offset and the energy loss of organic solar cells. However, quantum‐chemical calculations of the Eb in solid state with considering electronic polarization effects are extremely time‐consuming. Furthermore, current studies lack critical descriptors. Here, we use data‐driven machine learning (ML) to accelerate the computation and identify the key descriptors most relevant to the solid‐state Eb. The results verify two key descriptors associated with molecular and aggregation‐state properties for efficient prediction of the solid‐state Eb. Moreover, a very high accuracy is achieved by using the extreme gradient boosting algorithm, with the Pearson’s correlation coefficient of 0.92. Finally, we use this ML model to predict the Eb of thin films, which is difficult to achieve using the current quantum‐chemical calculations due to the large structural disorder. Remarkably, the predicted thin‐film Eb values are fully consistent with the results of temperature‐dependent photoluminescence spectra. Therefore, our work provides an accurate and efficient approach to predict the solid‐state Eb and would be helpful to accelerate the exploitation of novel promising organic photovoltaic materials.

Influence of polarization of hot nuclear matter on the anomaly of the surface diffuseness of inter-nuclear potential

Abstract The fusion excitation functions for 12 colliding systems with 
$96\leq Z_1Z_2 \leq 608$ are analyzed using the coupled-channels
(CC) calculations based on the M3Y double-folding (DF) potential
supplemented with a repulsive potential that takes into account the
incompressibility of the nuclear matter. We also applied the
polarization effects of hot nuclear matter (PEHNM) on the
calculations of the bare nucleus-nucleus interaction potential
within the framework of the modified density-dependent
Seyler-Blanchard (SB) approach in the $T^2$ approximation. Our
results reveal that we obtain a nice description of the experimental
data of different fusion systems when we use the present theoretical
approach to calculate the energy-dependent values of the fusion
cross sections. In this paper, the influence of the PEHNM on the
surface diffuseness parameter of the Woods-Saxon (WS) potential are
also studied. In order to reach this goal, we extract the
corresponding values of this parameter based on the modified form of
the DF potential (M3Y+Repulsion+polarization). We find that the
extracted values locate in a range between $a = 0.61$ and 0.80 fm at
different incident energies. It seems that the polarization effects
of hot nuclear matter play a key role in describing the abnormally
large values of the nuclear potential diffusenesses in the heavy-ion
fusion reactions. Additionally, the regular decreasing trend for the
diffuseness parameter of the nucleus-nucleus potential with the
increase in the bombarding energies is also observed.

GRN Activates TNFR2 to Promote Macrophage M2 Polarization Aggravating Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Infection.

The polarization of macrophages plays a critical role in the immune response to infectious diseases, with M2 polarization shown to be particularly important in various pathological processes. However, the specific mechanisms of M2 macrophage polarization in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection remain unclear. In particular, the roles of Granulin (GRN) and tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFR2) in the M2 polarization process have not been thoroughly studied. To investigate the effect of macrophage M2 polarization on Mtb infection and the mechanism of GRN and TNFR2 in M2 polarization. Forty patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and 40 healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study, and peripheral blood samples were taken to detect the levels of TNFR2 and GRN mRNA by Quantitative Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-qPCR); monocytes were isolated and then assessed by Flow Cytometry (FC) for M1 and M2 macrophage levels. To further validate the function of TNFR2 in macrophage polarization, we used interleukin 4 (IL-4) to induce mouse monocyte macrophages RAW264.7 to M2 polarized state. The expression of TNFR2 was detected by Western Blot and RT-qPCR. Next, we constructed a GRN knockdown plasmid and transfected it into IL-4-induced mouse monocyte macrophage RAW264.7, and detected the expression of TNFR2, M1 macrophage-associated factors tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and interleukin 6 (IL-6), and the M2 macrophage-associated factors CD206, IL-10, and Arginase 1 (Arg1); Immunofluorescence staining was used to monitor the expression of CD86+ and CD206+, and FC was used to analyze the macrophage phenotype. Subsequently, immunoprecipitation was used to detect the binding role of GRN and TNFR2. Finally, the effects of GRN and TNFR2 in macrophage polarization were further explored by knocking down GRN and simultaneously overexpressing TNFR2 and observing the macrophage polarization status. The results of the study showed elevated expression of TNFR2 and GRN and predominance of M2 type in macrophages in PTB patients compared to healthy volunteers (p < 0.05). Moreover, TNFR2 was highly expressed in M2 macrophages (p < 0.05). Additionally, GRN knockdown was followed by elevated expression of M1 polarization markers TNF-α, iNOS and IL-6 (p < 0.05), decreased levels of M2 polarization-associated factors CD206, IL-10 and Arg1 (p < 0.05), and macrophage polarization towards M1. Subsequently, we found that GRN binds to TNFR2 and that GRN upregulates TNFR2 expression (p < 0.05). In addition, knockdown of GRN elevated M1 polarization marker expression, decreased M2 polarization marker expression, and increased M1 macrophages and decreased M2 macrophages, whereas concurrent overexpression of TNFR2 decreased M1 polarization marker expression, elevated M2 polarization marker expression, and decreased M1 macrophages and increased M2 macrophages. TNFR2 and GRN are highly expressed in PTB patients and GRN promotes macrophage M2 polarization by upregulating TNFR2 expression.
