In this work, SnS–SnS2 heterostructured upright
nanosheet frameworks are constructed on FTO substrates, which demonstrate
promising photocatalytic performances for the conversion of CO2 and water to C2 (acetaldehyde) and C3 (acetone) hydrocarbons
without H2 formation. With post annealing in designated
atmospheres, the photocatalytic activity of the SnS–SnS2 heterostructured nanosheet framework is critically enhanced
by increasing the fraction of crystalline SnS in nanosheets through
partial transformation of the SnS2 matrix to SnS but not
obviously influenced by improving the crystallinity of the SnS2 matrix. DFT calculations indicate that transformed SnS possesses
the CO2 adsorption sites with significantly lower activation
energy for the rate-determining step to drive efficient CO2 conversion catalysis. The experimental results and DFT calculations
suggest that the SnS–SnS2 heterojunction nanosheet
framework photocatalyst experiences Z-scheme charge transfer dynamic
to allow the water oxidation and CO2 reduction reactions
occurring on the surfaces of SnS2 and SnS, respectively.
The Z-scheme SnS–SnS2 heterostructured nanosheet
framework photocatalyst exhibits not only efficient charge separation
but also highly catalytic active sites to boost the photocatalytic
activity for CO2 conversion to C2 and C3 hydrocarbons.
Solitary pulmonary nodules are the main manifestation of pulmonary lesions. Doctors often make diagnosis by observing the lung CT images. In order to further study the brain response structure and construct a brain-computer interface, we propose an isolated pulmonary nodule detection model based on a brain-computer interface. First, a single channel time-frequency feature extraction model is constructed based on the analysis of EEG data. Second, a multilayer fusion model is proposed to establish the brain-computer interface by connecting the brain electrical signal with a computer. Finally, according to image presentation, a three-frame image presentation method with different window widths and window positions is proposed to effectively detect the solitary pulmonary nodules.
Two series of liquid crystalline, main-chain polyesters were synthesized having mesogenic triads based on substituted hydroquinones to form the center of the triad and two residues of p-hydroxybenzoic acid at either side. The two series differed only in the nature of the spacer; in one series it was the decamethylene and in the other the tetrakis(oxyethylene) unit. Both the type of lateral substituent and the type of spacer had a profound influence on the mesogenic properties compared to that of the unsubstituted polymer. The methyl substituent increased the temperature range of the mesophase. The ethyl substituent had a similar effect for the polymer with the decamethylene spacer, but its presence led to a marked decrease in the thermotropic properties for the polymer with the poly(oxymethylene) spacer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
