Embedding carbon dots in Eu3+-doped metal-organic framework for label-free ratiometric fluorescence detection of Fe3+ ions

Fluorescent detection is a new spectroscopic measurement for ions sensing due to the advantages of real-time determination with high selectivity, accuracy, and low cost. However, chemosensors based on fluorescent detection are usually determined by absolute intensity from a monochromatic emission signal, which is easy to be fluctuated by the external environment, especially for Fe³⁺ detection in complex fluids. Herein, we rationally design a dual-emission Eu³⁺: CDs@ZIF-8 to construct a ratiometric fluorescent sensor with self-calibrating ability for Fe³⁺ determination. High efficient carbon dots (CDs) are embedded in europium ions (Eu³⁺)-doped MOF by simple stirring preparation at room temperature. The label-free ratiometric fluorescent probe (I_CDs@ZIF-8/I_Eu) exhibits simultaneous blue and red emission under the same excitation at 365 nm. Remarkably, Eu³⁺: CDs@ZIF-8 displays the superiority of high selectivity to Fe³⁺, which shows ratiometric fluorescence characteristics (I₀/I) in a range of 0-6 μmol\L with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.897 μmol\L. Besides, the CDs-MOF nanocomposite holds good aqueous dispersibility and low cytotoxicity, which shows great potential applications in medical aid including biological detection and clinical diagnosis.     

Molecular fingerprint and machine learning to accelerate design of high-performance homochiral metal–organic frameworks

Computational screening was employed to calculate the enantioseparation capabilities of 45 functionalized homochiral metal–organic frameworks (FHMOFs), and machine learning (ML) and molecular fingerprint (MF) techniques were used to find new FHMOFs with high performance. With increasing temperature, the enantioselectivities for (R,S)-1,3-dimethyl-1,2-propadiene are improved. The “glove effect” in the chiral pockets was proposed to explain the correlations between the steric effect of functional groups and performance of FHMOFs. Moreover, the neighborhood component analysis and RDKit/MACCS MFs show the highest predictive effect on enantioselectivities among the four ML classification algorithms with nine MFs that were tested. Based on the importance of MF, 85 new FHMOFs were designed, and a newly designed FHMOF, NO₂-NHOH-FHMOF, with high similarity to the optimal MFs achieved improved chiral separation performance, with enantioselectivities of 85%. The design principles and new chiral pockets obtained by ML and MFs could facilitate the development of new materials for chiral separation.     

ZIF-8 derived bimetallic Fe–Ni-Nanoporous carbon for enhanced oxygen reduction reaction

The development of highly efficient nοn-nοble meta? catalysts for (ОRR) in PEMFCs is at the heart of the research, yet their performance is not satisfactory. The Fe–N active sites enclosed in carbon matrix are generally agreed to be the most promising active sites for ORR. In view of this, further effort is made to increase the Fe–N active sites. Here we present the fabrication of novel FeNi bimetallic electrоcatalyst obtained from ZIF, which consists of FeNi nanоallоys incorporated in N-doped carbon (FeNi-NC) featuring carbon nanotubes and porous carbon demonstrates outstanding results for ОRR. The Fe–N and Ni–N active sites synergistically enhance the ORR activity of FeNi-NC catalyst. The FeNi-NC showed remarkable performance in KОH with the half-wave and onset potential of 0.89 V and 0.99 V vs RHE, respectively. This catalyst shows exceptional stability in methanol equivalent to Pt/C commercial. The FeNi-NC retained 71%, while Pt/C commercial retained only 59% of its original current density. The exceptional stability and activity might be associated with the interplay among FeNi active sites and N-doped carbon, the distinct nanо-structure made up of porous carbon and carbon nanotubes with a high graphitization degree.     

A strategic roadmap for large-scale green hydrogen demonstration and commercialisation in China: A review and survey analysis

Hydrogen is gaining increased attention from industries and policymakers in China. However, most of the current demonstration projects in the country have relied on conventional energy sources, including industrial byproduct hydrogen and grey hydrogen produced from fossil fuels. Moreover, strategies and policy frameworks leading to a shift to green or low-carbon hydrogen have neither been explored in-depth nor been identified clearly in the context of China. This study aims at bridging such gaps. Roadmapping techniques enhanced by the Delphi method and SWOT analysis are used to survey hydrogen energy experts from government bodies, industries, and academia to achieve basic agreement on strategically enabling large-scale green hydrogen demonstrations followed by commercialisation in China. The outcome of two rounds of surveys showed that experts' opinions converged on a strategic roadmap with three stages of development. The corresponding policies needed in each stage are evaluated and selected to form a systemic framework.     

内含实体对H型垂直轴风力机气动性能的影响

以H型垂直轴风力机及其内含圆柱形实体为研究对象,对NACA0018翼型的五叶片H型垂直轴风力机的气动性能进行数值模拟和实验验证。分析8种不同直径的内含圆柱体,在内含实体截面积占风轮迎风面积之比分别为21.2%、50.0%和76.9%时,风力机风能利用率的峰值分别下降8.04%、20.7%及74.3%。结果表明：随着内含实体直径的增大,风能利用率的峰值逐渐减小,开始较为缓慢,达到一定值时快速下降。小直径内含实体主要影响叶片在下风区的转矩,对风能利用率的影响较小,而大直径内含实体还会影响叶片在上风区的转矩,其风能利用率迅速减小。对于内含固定直径的实体,比如在现有建筑物外侧安装风力机时,其风轮半径的选择需综合考虑风能利用率和风力机的建造成本两方面的因素。研究结果可为建筑物与垂直轴风力机进行有效结合以提高风能的利用提供参考。     

Synthesis of hollow Fe,Co, and N-doped carbon catalysts from conducting polymer-metal-organic-frameworks core-shell particles for their application in an oxygen reduction reaction

Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), one of the key reactions for fuel cells and zinc-air batteries, should be improved for higher performance. Herein, we fabricated hollow Fe, Co, and nitrogen co-doped carbon (H-FeCo-NC) catalyst, which was prepared by carbonization of core-shell particles made of polypyrrole (PPy)-coated polystyrene (PS) spheres as cores and (Zn, Co) bimetallic-zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZnCoBZIFs) as shells. PPy was used as a nitrogen and a carbon source. The H-FeCo-NC catalyst had a high surface area of 324.08 m² g^?1 with uniformly distributed Fe and Co species, and excellent ORR performance with the half-wave potential of 0.888 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode in alkaline media. Furthermore, the H-FeCo-NC catalyst demonstrated exceptional stability, durability, and tolerance to methanol crossover.

基于误差估值累加开环校正的诱导式欺骗检测方法

诱导式卫星欺骗干扰可诱导航空器逐渐偏离预定航迹，难以被发现，因此及时有效地检测干扰是飞行安全的保障。在现有紧组合导航体制基础上，设计了一种基于误差估值累加开环校正的紧组合导航结构，并证明了其性能与传统闭环校正紧组合导航性能等效。在此结构中，将紧组合导航系统与自适应序贯概率比检测方法结合，提出了一种基于误差估值累加开环校正的诱导式欺骗检测方法，融合紧组合导航信息与其他不受欺骗影响的导航信息，构建欺骗检测统计量进行诱导式欺骗检测。仿真结果表明，开环校正结构可避免随时间累加的惯性导航系统误差所导致的组合导航滤波器发散问题，同时欺骗检测方法可进一步提高算法对“最坏”情形下微小诱导式欺骗的检测效果。
