One dimensional (1D) nanostructures attract considerable attention, enabling a broad application owing to their unique properties. However, the precise mechanism of 1D morphology attainment remains a matter of debate. In this study, ultrafast picosecond (ps) laser-induced treatment on upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) is offered as a tool for 1D-nanostructures formation. Fragmentation, reshaping through recrystallization process and bioadaptation of initially hydrophobic (β-Na1.5Y1.5F6: Yb3+, Tm3+/β-Na1.5Y1.5F6) core/shell nanoparticles by means of one-step laser treatment in water are demonstrated. “True” 1D nanostructures through “Medusa”-like structures can be obtained, maintaining anti-Stokes luminescence functionalities. A matter of the one-dimensional UCNPs based on direction of energy migration processes is debated. The proposed laser treatment approach is suitable for fast UCNP surface modification and nano-to-nano transformation, that open unique opportunities to expand UCNP applications in industry and biomedicine.
The problems of deactivation of iron oxide catalysts in the process of industrial dehydrogenation of methylbutenes to isoprene have been considered. The dependence of deactivation of the catalyst fixed bed on the time on-stream of different sections of the catalyst along the reactor height has been examined. The cause of poor performance of a part of the catalyst bed has been revealed and substantiated. Based of the results of the study, the authors propose an approach to predicting the catalyst performance during a long time on-stream. 相似文献

This study presents the fabrication and characterization of novel surface-type capacitive humidity sensors using vanadyl phthalocyanine (VOPc) as the active material. The devices, which comprise three different thicknesses,have been fabricated using the thermal evaporation technique. A thin film of VOPc is deposited on thoroughly cleaned glass substrates with pre-pattemed Ag electrodes. The capacitive effect of the samples under humidity has been in-vestigated. Comparison of the samples with different thicknesses shows that the thinnest device seems more sensitive towards humidity. The humidity dependent capacitance properties of the sensor make it beneficial for use in commercial hygrometers. 相似文献

It is shown that the energy loss of blocking diodes decreases if some part of a solar module surface is shadowed. A powerful
blocking diode for solar modules based on the silicon n+n-pp+ structure is suggested. 相似文献
A powder dissolution method is used to study the kinetics of leaching of lead sulfate from a lead cake in the temperature
range 298–353 K and the concentration range 50–270 g/l of a sodium chloride solution. The results obtained are used to calculate
the apparent activation energy (Ea = 12.41 kJ/mol); its value indicates that the process of leaching of lead sulfate from a lead cake occurs in a diffusion
zone. This process is shown to be described by a first-order kinetic equation. 相似文献
