Fabrication of pillar-array superhydrophobic silicon surface and thermodynamic analysis on the wetting state transition

Textured silicon （Si） substrates decorated with regular microscale square pillar arrays of nearly the same side length, height, but different intervals are fabricated by inductively coupled plasma, and then silanized by self-assembly octadecyl- trichlorosilane （OTS） film. The systematic water contact angle （CA） measurements and micro/nanoscale hierarchical rough structure models are used to analyze the wetting behaviors of original and silanized textured Si substrates each as a function of pillar interval-to-width ratio. On the original textured Si substrate with hydrophilic pillars, the water droplet possesses a larger apparent CAs （〉 90~） and contact angle hysteresis （CAH）, induced by the hierarchical roughness of microscale pil- lar arrays and nanoscale pit-like roughness. However, the silanized textured substrate shows superhydrophobicity induced by the low free energy OTS overcoat and the hierarchical roughness of microscale pillar arrays, and nanoscale island-like roughness. The largest apparent CA on the superhydrophobic surface is 169.8~. In addition, the wetting transition of a gently deposited water droplet is observed on the original textured substrate with pillar interval-to-width ratio increasing. Furthermore, the wetting state transition is analyzed by thermodynamic approach with the consideration of the CAH effect. The results indicate that the wetting state changed from a Cassie state to a pseudo-Wenzel during the transition.

采用高温固相烧结法制备了系列Dy单掺杂、Eu,Dy共掺杂和Sr,Eu,Dy共掺杂的Y_2O_3纳米荧光粉.借助X射线衍射仪(XRD)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)分析了样品的晶体结构和形貌,优化了工艺过程和参数.系统测试了稀土掺杂Y_2O_3荧光粉的激发光谱和发射光谱.在330 nm光激发下,研究了Y_2O_3∶Eu~(3+),Dy~(3+)纳米荧光粉的白光发射特性,并通过调节Eu,Dy掺杂浓度,获得了CIE为(0.32,0.33)和色温为6100 K的强白光发射.进一步讨论了Sr~(2+)离子对Y_2O_3∶Eu~(3+),Dy~(3+)纳米荧光粉白光特性的影响.结果表明,Sr~(2+)的掺入可明显改善Y_2O_3∶Eu~(3+),Dy~(3+)纳米荧光粉的白光发射.     

BiVO4光催化去除废水中的四环素和环丙沙星

利用微波水热法制备单斜白钨矿型BiVO4为光催化剂,探讨其对抗生素类污染物的去除效果.同时利用X射线衍射(XRD)、傅里叶红外(FT-IR)和场发射扫描电镜(FE-SEM)等测试手段对样品结构和性能进行了表征.以四环素(TC)和环丙沙星(CIP)为目标污染物,研究光照时间、pH及Cu(Ⅱ)共存对BiVO4光催化降解抗生素性能的影响.结果表明:BiVO4对TC和CIP的光催化具有较为宽泛的pH适用范围,其中TC在pH为5~12之间具有良好的效果,pH=8时,降解效率达到74%;CIP在pH为4~9之间适用范围最好,降解率由26%升高到37%.此外,对TC和CIP光催化降解机理和可能的降解途径进行探讨,光催化降解主要机理是有效光生电子-空穴与OH-和O2结合,将TC和CIP分解为中间产物CO2和H2O.总之,单斜白钨矿型BiVO4用于模拟抗生素废水的研究,取得一定效果,可为实际抗生素废水的处理提供参考.
