Interface chemical reconstruction with residual lithium compounds on nickel-rich cathode by nonstoichiometrical MoO3-x coating enables high stability

The layered lithium nickel-rich cathodes have become one of the most promising candidates for next-generation lithium-ion batteries with high energy density, However, the nickel-rich cathode suffers from a rapid decay of capacity due to their intrinsic instability and undesirably residual lithium compounds originated from LiNiO2 structural changes on the surface, hindering large-scale commercial application. Herein, a continuous and uniform oxygen vacancy enriched-MoO3-x coating was successfully synthesized and reacted residual lithium compounds as a functional layer on the cathode. Such chemically reconstructed coating (Li2MoO4) strategy endows the 1 wt% MoO3-x coated NCA cathode with a fast Li+ ions transport and enhanced structural stability, leading to an outstanding discharge capacity of 214.0 mAh g−1 at 0.1C (1C = 270 mA g−1), a better capacity retention of 80.3 % after 120 cycles at 0.5C, and an excellent high rate capability of 120 mAh g−1 at 5C cycled in voltage range of 2.75 V–4.3 V. This work provides an effective strategy to modulate surface structure towards advanced Ni-rich cathodes for high-performance lithium-ion batteries.

Nanocrystal Materials for Resistive Memory and Artificial Synapses: Progress and Prospects.

Resistive random-access memory (RRAM) is considered to be the most promising next-generation non-volatile memory because of its low cost, low energy consumption, and excellent data storage characteristics. However, the on/off (SET/RESET) voltages of RRAM are too random to replace the traditional memory. Nanocrystals (NCs) offer an appealing option for these applications since they combine excellent electronic/optical properties and structural stability and can address the requirements of low-cost, large-area, and solution-processed technologies. Therefore, the doping NCs in the function layer of RRAM are proposed to localize the electric field and guide conductance filaments (CFs) growth. The purpose of this article is to focus on a comprehensive and systematical survey of the NC materials, which are used to improve the performance of resistive memory (RM) and optoelectronic synaptic devices and review recent experimental advances in NC-based neuromorphic devices from artificial synapses to light-sensory synaptic platforms. Extensive information related to NCs for RRAM and artificial synapses and their associated patents were collected. This review aimed to highlight the unique electrical and optical features of metal and semiconductor NCs for designing future RRAM and artificial synapses. It was demonstrated that doping NCs in the function layer of RRAM could not only improve the homogeneity of SET/RESET voltage but also reduce the threshold voltage. At the same time, it could still increase the retention time and provide the probability of mimicking the bio-synapse. NC doping can significantly enhance the overall performance of RM devices, but there are still many problems to be solved. This review highlights the relevance of NCs for RM and artificial synapses and also provides a perspective on the opportunities, challenges, and potential future directions.

Innovative Integration of Triboelectric Nanogenerators into Signature Stamps for Energy Harvesting, Self-Powered Electronic Devices, and Smart Applications

In this manuscript, we present a novel approach for integrating Triboelectric Nanogenerators (TENGs) into signature stamps, termed Stamp TENG (S-TENG). We have modified a commercially available stamp holder to integrate triboelectric layers for multiple applications like effective energy harvesting, sensing, and embedded electronics for data prediction. S-TENG has been further explored in remote monitoring systems for elderly individuals and for gathering real-time statistics regarding persons or events at specific locations. The S-TENG is fabricated using FEP and Al as functional layers. It demonstrates an output voltage of 310 V, a current of 165 μA, and a power density of 14.8 W/m2. The simplicity of the S-TENG’s design is noteworthy. Its ability to generate energy through simple, repetitive stamping actions, which anyone can perform without specialized training, stands out as a key feature. The device is also designed for ease of use, being handheld and user-friendly. Its flexible and adaptable structure ensures that individuals with varying physical capabilities can comfortably operate it. An impressive capability of the TENG is its ability to illuminate 320 LEDs with each stamp press momentarily. Furthermore, using energy management circuits, the S-TENG can power small electronic gadgets such as digital watches and thermometers for a few seconds. In addition, when integrated with electronics, the S-TENG shows great potential in data prediction for various practical applications.

Organic Mixed Ionic Electronic Conductor Nanochannels for Vertical Electrochemical and Ionic Transistors

AbstractThin films of organic mixed ionic electronic conductors (OMIECs) constitute the functional layer in organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs), organic bioelectronic transducers and other ionic‐electronic devices. The thin‐film configuration constrains devices to be fabricated on impermeable substrates in the form of 2D microstructures with lateral electrodes to drive an electronic current through the thin film. In order to alleviate such constraints, novel OMIEC deposition methods are needed that produce alternatives to thin‐film devices and that are compatible with permeable substrates and electronic transport in the vertical direction. Here OMIECs filled nanoporous membranes are introduced as functional layer in devices with mixed ionic electronic transport. Electropolymerization of ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) monomers is used to fabricate OMIEC filled nanochannels. Electronic and ionic transport through such nanochannels are investigated and modulation of electronic as well as ionic carrier density by action of a third gate electrode is demonstrated. The novel OMIEC nanochannels enable the fabrication of vertical OECTs with high transconductance and organic ionic transistors using only additive fabrication methods.

Research on bubble free Si/SiC hydrophilic bonding approach for high quality Si-on-SiC fabrication

Abstract The electrical device fabricated by the Si-on-SiC substrate exhibits superior heat dissipation and minimal RF loss. However, a common challenge in hydrophilic direct bonding is the inevitable formation of bubbles at the Si/SiC interface, which compromises material utilization efficiency. To address this issue, a multi-bonding process was introduced in this research. Experimental findings revealed that this method effectively mitigated interfacial bubble formation, especially when incorporating a multi-step annealing-separating-bonding approach, yielding even more promising results. Ultimately, a bubble-free 3×3 cm2 Si-on-SiC substrate was fabricated. Material characterization techniques confirmed the high crystal quality and minimal surface roughness for the Si functional layer. Transmission electron microscopy further revealed the presence of an amorphous oxide layer (~3.5 nm) at the interface, devoid of any defects or nanovoids. It is believed that with the excellent physical properties, Si-on-SiC will have a broader application prospect in extreme environments.

MoS2-based charge trapping layer enabled triboelectric nanogenerator with assistance of CNN-GRU model for intelligent perception

Self-powered sensing technology and smart perception technology have broad application prospects in flexible and wearable electronics. In this work, a flexible triboelectric nanogenerator (RMP-TENG) based on a room-temperature vulcanized silicone rubber (RTV)@(Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)/Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)) functional layer is developed using a layer-by-layer self-assembly and material doping strategy. The RTV@(MoS2/PVC) functional layer is divided into a charge-generating layer (RTV/PVC) and a charge-trapping layer (RTV/MoS2). The synergistic effect of PVC and MoS2 has improved the surface roughness and charge transfer efficiency of RMP-TENG, doubling its output performance to 1055 V and 112 μA. In order to further improve the tactile sensing accuracy of RMP-TENG, a deep learning model based on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) is developed. It predicts the type of contact material based on the features of tactile signals, achieving a prediction accuracy of 93.975%. Additionally, by combining mobile smart terminals, the CNN-GRU model, and RMP-TENG, a wireless access control system based on self-powered tactile sensing and intelligent material recognition is developed. Through the optimization of these experiments and algorithms, RMP-TENG has achieved real-time material recognition capabilities. This demonstrates the broad application prospects of RMP-TENG in wearable energy supply, intelligent sensing, human-computer interaction, and other areas.

The role of enhanced expression of Cx43 in patients with ulcerative colitis.

The pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC) involves chronic inflammation of the submucosal layer and disruption of epithelial barrier function within the gastrointestinal tract. Connexin 43 (Cx43) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of intestinal inflammation and its associated carcinogenic effects. However, a comprehensive analysis of Cx43's role in mucosal and peripheral immunity in patients with UC is lacking. In this study, the colon tissues of patients with UC exhibited severe damage to the intestinal mucosal barrier, resulting in a significant impairment of junctional communication as observed by transmission electron microscopy. The mRNA expression of Cx43 was found to be significantly elevated in the UC group compared to the control group, as determined using the Affymetrix expression profile chip and subsequently validated using qRT-PCR. The immunofluorescence analysis revealed a significantly higher mean fluorescence intensity of Cx43 in the UC group compared to the control group. Additionally, Cx43 was observed in both the cell membrane and nucleus, providing clear evidence of nuclear translocation. The proportion of Cx43 in the UC group for CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes was increased in the control group, but only the proportion of Cx43 for CD8+ T lymphocytes showed significant difference by flow cytometry. The involvement of Cx43 in the pathogenesis of UC and its potential role in mucosal immunity warrants further investigation, as it holds promise as a prospective biomarker and therapeutic target for this condition. The proportion of Cx43 in the UC group for CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes was increased in the control group, but only the proportion of Cx43 for CD8+ T lymphocytes showed a significant difference.

Degradation of iron‐nickel alloy interconnects in contact with lanthanum nickelates based double‐layer electrodes during long‐term tests

AbstractThis paper focuses on long‐term tests held during 1,000 h on different Membrane‐Electrode‐Interconnect Assemblies (MEIAs), consisting of an Fe‐Ni alloy interconnect and an electrochemical cell based on a Ce0.8Sm0.2O2–δ electrolyte, the double‐layer working electrode with a La2NiO4 + δ – Ce0.8Sm0.2O2–δ composite functional layer, and a LaNi0.6Fe0.4O3–δ current collector layer, and a platinum reference electrode (O2, LaNi0.6Fe0.4O3–δ|La2NiO4 + δ – Ce0.8Sm0.2O2–δ|Ce0.8Sm0.2O2–δ|Pt, O2). These tests were carried out on MEIAs with the Cr‐free 47ND alloy of the Fe–Ni system with and without surface modification at 850°C in air. The electrochemical performance of MEIAs was studied without polarization as well as under cathodic and anodic polarization with current density 0.5 A cm−2 by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The mechanism of the MEIA evolution during long‐term test is discussed.

A New Approach to Carbon Nanotube Filament Nanostructuring for Additive Manufacturing.

A new technique of additive prototyping filament volumetric nanostructuring based on the high-speed mechanical mixing of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) copolymer granules and single-walled carbon nanotube (CNT) powder (without prior dispersion in solvents) is considered. The morphological spectra of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of nanostructured filament slice surfaces were obtained and characterized with the original mathematical simulation. The relations of structural changes in the "ingredient-matrix" polymer system with dielectric and mechanical properties of the ABS-based filaments were established. The supplementation of 1.5 mass.% of CNT powder to the ABS filament composition leads to the tensile strength increasing from 36 ± 2 to 42 ± 2 MPa. It is shown that the greater the average biharmonic amplitude and the morphological spectrum localization radius of the slice surfaces' SEM images, the lower the electrical resistance of the corresponding nanostructured filaments. The possibility of carbon nanotube-modified filament functional layers forming using the extrusion additive prototyping technique (FFF) on the surface of plasma-chemically modified PET substrates (for the creation of load cell elements) is experimentally demonstrated.

One-Stone-for-Two-Birds Method to Improve the SnO2 Layers for High Power-per-Weight Flexible Perovskite Solar Cell Mini-modules.

Maintaining the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of flexible perovskite solar cells (fPSCs) while decreasing their weight is essential to utilize their lightweight and flexibility as much as possible for commercialization. Strengthening the interfaces between functional layers, such as flexible substrates, charge transport layers, and perovskite active layers, is critical to addressing the issue. Herein, we propose a feasible and one-stone-for-two-birds method to improve the electron transport layer (ETL), SnO2, and the interface between the ETL and perovskite layer simultaneously. In detail, poly(acrylate ammonium) (PAAm), a low-cost polymer with a long chain structure, is added into the SnO2 aqueous solution to reduce the aggregation of SnO2 nanoparticles, resulting in the deposition of a conformal and high-quality ETL film on the tin-doped indium oxide film surface. Simultaneously, PAAm addition can effectively regulate the crystallization of the perovskite films, strengthening the interface between the SnO2 film and the buried surface of the perovskite layer. The outstanding PCEs of 22.41% on small-scale fPSCs and 18.54% on fPSC mini-modules are among the state-of-the-art n-i-p type fPSCs. Moreover, the fPSC mini-module on the 20 μm-thick flexible substrate shows a comparable PCE with that of the fPSC mini-module on the 125 μm-thick flexible substrate, exhibiting a high power-to-weight of 5.097 W/g. This work provides an easy but essential direction for further applications of fPSCs in diverse scenarios.

Homogeneously Planar-Exposure LiB Fiber Skeleton Toward Long-Lifespan Practical Li Metal Pouch Cells.

LiB alloy is promising lithium (Li) metal anode material because the continuous internal LiB fiber skeleton can effectively suppress Li dendrites and structural pulverization. However, the unvalued surface states limit the practical application of LiB alloy anodes. Herein, the study examined the influence of the different exposure manners of the internal LiB fiber skeleton owing to the various surface states of the LiB alloy anode on electrochemical performance and targetedly proposed a scalable friction coating strategy to construct a lithiated fumed silica (LFS) functional layer with abundant electrochemically active sites on the surface of the LiB alloy anode. The LFS significantly suppresses the inhomogeneous interfacial electrochemical behavior of the LiB alloy anode and enables the exposure of the internal LiB fiber skeleton in a homogeneously planar manner (LFS-LiB). Thus, a 0.5Ah LFS-LiB||LiCoO2 (LCO) pouch cell exhibits a discharge capacity retention rate of 80% after 388 cycles. Moreover, a 6.15Ah LFS-LiB||S pouch cell with 409.3Whkg-1 exhibits a discharge capacity retention rate of 80% after 30 cycles. In conclusion, the study findings provide a new research perspective for Li alloy anodes.

Healable and multi driving mode soft actuator enabled by disulfide-bonded liquid crystal elastomers

Due to the great potential in many applications, multi-responsive soft actuators as a kind of smart materials have attracted great interest from the scientific community. Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) are gradually becoming their preferred candidate matrix because of their unique mesogenic anisotropy and polymer elasticity. Here, we designed and synthesized a new disulfide-bonded aromatic molecule (named DSAC), which was used to endow the LCE matrix with a self-healing effect to extend the service life. The large conjugate structure greatly reduces the bond energy of the disulfide bond, thus allowing self-healing to occur at a lower temperature. Furthermore, the LCE matrix was coated with a novel type of functional layer with photothermal and conductive properties to make it be driven by multi-modes. Based on the above, we have prepared a healable and dual-driving mode soft actuator enabled by disulfide-bonded liquid crystal elastomers with multiple stimulus–response properties, which shows great potential in flexible electronics, artificial muscles and soft robots.

Hierarchical Coordinated Control Strategy for Active Power in Distribution Networks with Scaled Distributed Generation Access

Promoting scaled distributed wind turbines and photovoltaic, and other distributed generations access to the distribution network is an important measure for realize the goal of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality and to build new-type power systems. However, as the installed capacity of wind turbine, photovoltaic and other intermittent renewable energy sources climbs dramatically, the security and consumption problems of the distribution network are becoming increasingly prominent, and there is an urgent requirement to improve the active power control capability of distributed generation. To optimize the operation stability and consumption economy of the distribution network, a hierarchical coordinated control strategy for active power of scaled distributed generation is proposed based on the principle of unified control and hierarchical management, including peaking control, frequency control, mesh control and market trading control, to coordinate and optimize the system operation safety and consumption economy. The proposed strategy optimizes active power control instructions in the layer of distribution network layer, mesh layer, and functional area layer, thus fully expanding the depth and breadth of the consumption for distributed generation. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is proved by the actual operation of Liaoning power grid.

Association of Uterine Tissue Innervation and Peripheral Nerve Density with Adenomyosis Related Pain. A Systematic Review.

Adenomyosis is associated with dysmenorrhea and chronic pelvic pain; however, the triggering mechanisms of painful stimuli and the role of uterine nerve fibers in the manifestation of pain remain poorly understood. The objective of this study was to systematically review the role of uterine nerve fibers' presence and density in the occurrence of pain in patients with adenomyosis. An electronic search was performed using the Embase, PubMed/Medline, and Cochrane databases. We included all studies from inception to November 2023. A total of ten studies that compared uterine biopsies samples of women with and without adenomyosis were included. The biomarker antiprotein gene product 9.5 was decreased or absent in the endometrium of most included women with adenomyosis. None of the included studies observed a difference in neurofilament (NF) staining between the adenomyosis and non-adenomyosis groups. Studies that assessed nerve growth factor (NGF) staining were heterogeneous in design. One study reported no difference in immunohistochemistry staining in any endometrial layer between the adenomyosis and non-adenomyosis groups, while another reported increased staining in the adenomyosis functional endometrial layer, and a third study reported overexpression of NGF, synaptophysin (SYN), and microtubule-associated protein 2 mRNA in focal adenomyosis alone. Preliminary data from poor-quality studies suggest an increase in the uterine density of nerve fibers in patients with adenomyosis. Well-designed studies are essential to assess the cause-and-effect relationship between uterine nerve fibers and pain in patients with adenomyosis.

Flexible hybrid nanogenerator coupling of triboelectric and photovoltaic effects based on fluoride dielectric regulation for energy harvesting

Recently, constructing hybrid nanogenerators (NGs) that can simultaneously harvest frictional and solar energies has attracted a growing interest, among which halide perovskite is considered as one of the most suitable active materials. However, current perovskite-based hybrid NGs are low in performance and limited to rigid substrates. Strategies to minimize performance loss caused by deep defects in perovskite functional layer are still lacking. In this work, we proposed a fluoride additive passivation strategy to fabricate a new kind of flexible, efficient perovskite-based hybrid NGs. The fluoride with high electronegativity can effectively passivate defect density of perovskite film and further enhance its dielectric constant to minimize the ability of defects to capture charges. Hence, more efficient charge transport and suppressed recombination loss are achieved, which maximizes the triboelectric-photovoltaic coupling effect. The maximum current of the hybrid NG is up to 9.7 μA under illumination, which is about 25 times higher than that of the control device. The hybrid NG could light 50 LEDs and charge capacitors. Moreover, it exhibited excellent flexibility to act as a self-powered wearable sensor to detect human motions. Our work proposed a new strategy for flexible triboelectric-photovoltaic hybrid NGs with high-output performance for smart wearable applications.

Information orientation-based modular Type-2 fuzzy neural network

Type-2 fuzzy neural networks (T2FNNs) have gained popularity due to their processing ability for high uncertainty. However, concerned with the high-dimensional problems of nonlinear systems, the interpretability of individual T2FNNs is weak due to the exponential growth of fuzzy rules. To deal with this problem, an information orientation-based modular T2FNN (IO-MT2FNN) is developed to improve its interpretability in this paper. First, an information entropy-based decomposition method is designed to divide the original input space into three sub-spaces, namely edge, local and global regions. Then, the information with different attributes is separated to provide an unambiguous interpretation. Second, the independent module describing these regions with type-2 fuzzy sets is embedded in the membership function layer of IO-MT2FNN to represent the coupling relationship between regional information in an interpretable way. Third, an information mapping strategy is introduced with low-order Gaussian kernel matrices, instead of a high-order mapping matrix, to extract the features from the allocated information in each module, which enables IO-MT2FNN to achieve a compact topology through dimensionality reduction. Finally, the simulations demonstrate that the proposed IO-MT2FNN can compete with the advanced approaches in terms of interpretability for the prediction of high-dimensional and complex systems.

The preparation and characterization of lubricant-infused silicone rubber surface based on laser-splicing-scan microstructure

Slippery surface, as the most cutting-edge function surface, has aroused the extensive attention ascribed to excellent hydrophobicity and self-cleaning property. Micro/nanostructure (functional carrier) and lubricant fluid (functional layer) collectively constitute slippery bi-phase surface. To our best knowledge, we firstly validate the preparation feasibility of lubricant-infused silicone rubber surface (LISRS) based on nanosecond laser splicing scan. Comprehensive characterizations demonstrate that laser splicing traces will break the uniformity of microstructures resulting in droplet pinning. However, the lubricant infusion can significantly endow the whole microstructure surfaces with droplet depinning effect, which directly improves the process compatibility of the laser splicing machining. The capillary infiltration and unstable loss of the lubricant on the microstructure surfaces not only confirm the stable lubricant layer of LISRS conformal with microstructures, but also reveal capillary stabilization mechanism of microgroove structures under gravity environment. Then, after being subjected to comprehensive stability tests (including mechanical abrasion, water droplet and jet impacts), the water droplet sliding behaviors of impacted surfaces show that the lubricant-infused microstructure surface has a certain degree of resistance to external impacts. These results show that it is extremely feasible to create large-scale LISRS using a laser splicing scan. With the rapid development of laser micro/nanofabrication, it is promising to break through the tough issue of large-scale and high-efficiency preparation of slippery silicone rubber surfaces, and bring slippery surfaces to the practical applications of anti-corrosion, anti-fouling and anti-icing materials or products.

Towards controlled and simple design of non-enzymatic amperometric sensor for glycerol determination in yeast fermentation medium.

Glycerol is a widely used signaling bioanalyte in biotechnology. Glycerol can serve as a substrate or product of many metabolic processes in cells. Therefore, quantification of glycerol in fermentation samples with inexpensive, reliable, and rapid sensing systems is of great importance. In this work, an amperometric assay based on one-step designed electroplated functional Pd layers with controlled design was proposed for a rapid and selective measurement of glycerol in yeast fermentation medium. A novel assay utilizing electroplated Pd-sensing layers allows the quantification of glycerol in yeast fermentation medium in the presence of interfering species with RSD below 3% and recoveries ranged from 99 to 103%. The assay requires minimal sample preparation, viz. adjusting of sample pH to 12. The time taken to complete the electrochemical analysis was 3min. Remarkably, during investigations, it was revealed that sensitivity and selectivity of glycerol determination on Pd sensors were significantly affected by its adsorption and did not depend on the surface structure of sensing layers. This study is expected to contribute to both fundamental and practical research fields related to a preliminary choice of functional sensing layers for specific biotechnology and life science applications in the future.

Interleukin 6 at menstruation promotes the proliferation and self-renewal of endometrial mesenchymal stromal/stem cells through the WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway.

At menstruation, the functional layer of the human endometrium sheds off due to the trigger of the release of inflammatory factors, including interleukin 6 (IL-6), as a result of a sharp decline in progesterone levels, leading to tissue breakdown and bleeding. The endometrial mesenchymal stem-like cells (CD140b+CD146+ eMSC) located in the basalis are responsible for the cyclical regeneration of the endometrium after menstruation. Endometrial cells from the menstruation phase have been proven to secrete a higher amount of IL-6 and further enhance the self-renewal and clonogenic activity of eMSC. However, the IL-6-responsive mechanism remains unknown. Thus, we hypothesized that IL-6 secreted from niche cells during menstruation regulates the proliferation and self-renewal of eMSC through the WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway. In this study, the content of IL-6 across the menstrual phases was first evaluated. Coexpression of stem cell markers (CD140b and CD146) with interleukin 6 receptor (IL-6R) was confirmed by immunofluorescent staining. In vitro functional assays were conducted to investigate the effect of IL-6 on the cell activities of eMSC, and the therapeutic role of these IL-6- and WNT5A-pretreated eMSC on the repair of injured endometrium was observed using an established mouse model. The endometrial cells secrete a high amount of IL-6 under hypoxic conditions, which mimic the physiological microenvironment in the menstruation phase. Also, the expression of IL-6 receptors was confirmed in our eMSC, indicating their capacity to respond to IL-6 in the microenvironment. Exogenous IL-6 can significantly enhance the self-renewal, proliferation, and migrating capacity of eMSC. Activation of the WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway was observed upon IL-6 treatment, while suppression of the WNT/β-catenin signaling impaired the stimulatory role of IL-6 on eMSC activities. IL-6- and WNT5A-pretreated eMSC showed better performance during the regeneration of the injured mouse endometrium. We demonstrate that the high level of IL-6 produced by endometrial cells at menstruation can induce the stem cells in the human endometrium to proliferate and migrate through the activation of the WNT/β-catenin pathway. Treatment of eMSC with IL-6 and WNT5A might enhance their therapeutic potential in the regeneration of injured endometrium.

Multidimensional nanochannel design and regulation of ultra-thin GOQDs-AGQDs composite membranes

Graphene-based composite membranes with long and tortuous transport paths restricted its efficient and wide application in substance separation and purification field. In this study, we propose a multidimensional mass-transfer channel construction method for fabricating highly permeable 2D laminar membranes with lots of stable molecular transport channels. In particular, a robust GOQDs-AGQDs composite membranes with adjustable interlayer sieving channels were prepared based on vacuum assisted self-assembly by intercalating AGQDs with average size of 7.5 nm between GOQDs with average size of 34.0 nm, which presented highly permeability with plentiful nano-channels in both vertical and horizontal directions. As the mass fraction of doped AGQDs reached to 60 wt%, the best performance of GOQDs-AGQDs composite membranes was obtained, with a functional layer thickness of 24.1 nm, good stability, and strong acid and alkali resistance. The usage of small diameter GOQDs with intercalating smaller diameter AGQDs extremely shortened the transfer channel path and slightly increased the interlayer spacing (8.26 to 8.75 Å), which dramatically improved its permeation flux of 14 times higher than that of the pure GO membrane with similar dye rejection, and reached to 133.3 L·m−2·h−1 under 2 bar at the optimized condition. This study provided insights into self-assembling small-sized 2D nanomaterials into membranes and fine-tuning their nanochannel structure.
