Matrix Manipulation of Directly-Synthesized PbS Quantum Dot Inks Enabled by Coordination Engineering

The direct-synthesis of conductive PbS quantum dot (QD) ink is facile, scalable, and low-cost, boosting the future commercialization of optoelectronics based on colloidal QDs. However, manipulating the QD matrix structures still is a challenge, which limits the corresponding QD solar cell performance. Here, for the first time a coordination-engineering strategy to finely adjust the matrix thickness around the QDs is presented, in which halogen salts are introduced into the reaction to convert the excessive insulating lead iodide into soluble iodoplumbate species. As a result, the obtained QD film exhibits shrunk insulating shells, leading to higher charge carrier transport and superior surface passivation compared to the control devices. A significantly improved power-conversion efficiency from 10.52% to 12.12% can be achieved after the matrix engineering. Therefore, the work shows high significance in promoting the practical application of directly synthesized PbS QD inks in large-area low-cost optoelectronic devices.     

Effect of Ge on microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti3SiC2/Al2O3 composites

Owing to the good physicochemical compatibility and complementary mechanical properties of Ti₃SiC₂ and Al₂O₃, Ti₃SiC₂/Al₂O₃ composites are considered as ideal structural materials. However, TiC and TiSi₂ typically coexist during the synthesis of Ti₃SiC₂/Al₂O₃ composites through an in-situ reaction, which adversely affects the mechanical properties of the resulting composites. In this study, Ti₃SiC₂/Al₂O₃ composites were prepared via in-situ hot pressing sintering at 1450 °C. Ge, which was used as a sintering aid, improved the purity and mechanical properties of the Ti₃SiC₂/Al₂O₃ composites. This is because Ge replaced some of the Si atoms to compensate the evaporation loss of Si to form Ti₃(Si_1-xGe_x)C₂, which showed a crystal structure similar to that of Ti₃SiC₂. Furthermore, the molten Ge accelerated the diffusion reaction of the raw materials, increasing the overall density of the Ti₃SiC₂/Al₂O₃ composites. The optimum Ge amount for improving the mechanical properties of the composites was found to be 0.3 mol. The flexural strength, fracture toughness, and microhardness of the composite with the optimum Ge amount were 640.2 MPa, 6.57 MPa m^1/2, and 16.21 GPa, respectively. The formation of Ti₃(Si_1-xGe_x)C₂ was confirmed by carrying out X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy analyses. A model crystal structure of Ti₃(Si_1-xGe_x)C₂ doped with 0.3 mol Ge was established by calculating the solid solubility of Ge.     

水厂生产废水处理工艺节地高效化设计探索

随着对环保及自用水率的要求日益严格,水厂生产废水的减排已成为发展趋势.但既有水厂用地紧张和生产废水的处理工艺占地多存在矛盾,制约了水厂新增生产废水处理工艺的可行性.文中引入斜管沉淀提升沉淀效率、取消浓缩池、使用叠螺脱水机代替离心脱水机的优化设计方案,相较原设计的传统分离式生产废水处理工艺,生产废水停留时间减少75％,占地面积减少约48％.实践证明,该优化设计方案能够有效解决水厂生产废水处理工艺设计过程中遇到的用地不足问题,并有效地降低建设投资.     

非光滑凸问题投影型对偶平均优化方法的个体收敛性

对于一般凸问题,对偶平均方法的收敛性分析需要在对偶空间进行转换,难以得到个体收敛性结果.对此,文中首先给出对偶平均方法的简单收敛性分析,证明对偶平均方法具有与梯度下降法相同的最优个体收敛速率Ο(lnt/t).不同于梯度下降法,讨论2种典型的步长策略,验证对偶平均方法在个体收敛分析中具有步长策略灵活的特性.进一步,将个体收敛结果推广至随机形式,确保对偶平均方法可有效处理大规模机器学习问题.最后,在L1范数约束的hinge损失问题上验证理论分析的正确性.
