ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 251:118672. [PMID: 38508360 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118672] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2023] [Revised: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 03/09/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024]
Abstract
A series of TiO2 - based photocatalysts have been prepared by the incorporation of 10 wt% of various carbon-based nanomaterials as modifying agents to titania. More specifically, commercial TiO2 P25 was modified through a wet impregnation approach with methanol with four different carbon nanostructures: single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), partially reduced graphene oxide (prGO), graphite (GI), and graphitic carbon nitride (gCN). Characterization results (XPS and Raman) anticipate the occurrence of important interfacial phenomena, preferentially for samples TiO2/SWCNT and TiO2/prGO, with a binding energy displacement in the Ti 2p contribution of 1.35 eV and 1.54 eV, respectively. These findings could be associated with an improved electron-hole mobility at the carbon/oxide interface. Importantly, these two samples constitute the most promising photocatalysts for Rhodamine B (RhB) photodegradation, with nearly 100% conversion in less than 2 h. These promising results must be associated with intrinsic physicochemical changes at the formed heterojunction structure and the potential dual-role of the composites able to adsorb and degrade RhB simultaneously. Cyclability tests confirm the improved performance of the composites (e.g., TiO2/SWCNT, 100% degradation in 1 h) due to the combined adsorption/degradation ability, although the regeneration after several cycles is not complete due to partial blocking of the inner cavities in the carbon nanotubes by non-reacted RhB. Under these reaction conditions, Rhodamine-B xanthene dye degrades via the de-ethylation route.

Abstract
Aqueous rechargeable zinc-ion batteries (ARZIBs) are considered as an emerging energy storage technology owing to their low cost, inherent safety, and reasonable energy density. However, significant challenges associated with electrodes, and aqueous electrolytes restrict their rapid development. Herein, ethylene glycol-choline chloride (Eg-ChCl) based hydrated deep-eutectic electrolytes (HDEEs) are proposed for RZIBs. Also, a novel V10O24·nH2O@rGO composite is prepared and investigated in combination with HDEEs. The formulated HDEEs, particularly the composition of 1 ml of EG, 0.5 g of ChCl, 4 ml of H2O, and 2 M ZnTFS (1-0.5-4-2 HDEE), not only exhibit the lowest viscosity, highest Zn2+ conductivity (20.38 mS cm-1), and the highest zinc (Zn) transference number (t+ = 0.937), but also provide a wide electrochemical stability window (>3.2 V vs ZnǁZn2+) and enabledendrite-free Zn stripping/plating cycling over 1000 hours. The resulting ZnǁV10O24·nH2O@rGO cell with 1-0.5-4-2 HDEE manifests high reversible capacity of ≈365 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1, high rate-performance (delivered ≈365/223 mAh g-1 at 0.1/10 mA g-1) and enhanced cycling performance (≈63.10% capacity retention in the 4000th cycle at 10 A g-1). Furthermore, 1-0.5-4-2 HDEE support feasible Zn-ion storage performance across a wide temperature range (0-80 °C) FInally, a ZnǁV10O24·nH2O@rGO pouch-cell prototype fabricated with 1-0.5-4-2 HDEE demonstrates good flexibility, safety, and durability.

Abstract
The sp-hybridized carbon network in single- or few-layer γ-graphyne (γ-GY) has a polarized electron distribution, which can be crucial in overcoming biosafety issues. Here, we report the low-temperature synthesis, electronic properties, and amyloid fibril nanostructures of electrostatic few-layer γ-GY. ABC stacked γ-GY is synthesized by layer-by-layer growth on a catalytic copper surface, exhibiting intrinsic p-type semiconducting properties in few-layer γ-GY. Thickness-dependent electronic properties of γ-GY elucidate interlayer interactions by electron doping between electrostatic layers and layer stacking-involved modulation of the band gap. Electrostatic few-layer γ-GY induces high electronic sensitivity and intense interaction with amyloid beta (i.e., Aβ40) peptides assembling into elongated mature Aβ40 fibrils. Two-dimensional biocompatible nanostructures of Aβ40 fibrils/few-layer γ-GY enable excellent cell viability and high neuronal differentiation of living cells without external stimulation.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) was initially developed to emulate graphene, but it was soon recognized as a functional material in its own right, addressing an application space that is not accessible to graphene and other carbon materials. Over the past decade, research on GO has made tremendous advances in material synthesis and property tailoring. These, in turn, have led to rapid progress in GO-based photonics, electronics and optoelectronics, paving the way for technological breakthroughs with exceptional performance. In this Review, we provide an overview of the optical, electrical and optoelectronic properties of GO and reduced GO on the basis of their chemical structures and fabrication approaches, together with their applications in key technologies such as solar energy harvesting, energy storage, medical diagnosis, image display and optical communications. We also discuss the challenges of this field, together with exciting opportunities for future technological advances.

Abstract
We experimentally investigate power-sensitive photo-thermal tuning (PTT) of two-dimensional (2D) graphene oxide (GO) films coated on integrated optical waveguides. We measure the light power thresholds for reversible and permanent GO reduction in silicon nitride (SiN) waveguides integrated with one and two layers of GO. For the device with one layer of GO, the power threshold for reversible and permanent GO reduction are ~20 and ~22 dBm, respectively. For the device with two layers of GO, the corresponding results are ~13 and ~18 dBm, respectively. Raman spectra at different positions of a hybrid waveguide with permanently reduced GO are characterized, verifying the inhomogeneous GO reduction along the direction of light propagation through the waveguide. The differences between the PTT induced by a continuous-wave laser and a pulsed laser are also compared, confirming that the PTT mainly depend on the average input power. These results reveal interesting features for 2D GO films coated on integrated optical waveguides, which are of fundamental importance for the control and engineering of GO’s properties in hybrid integrated photonic devices.

Highly efficient conversion of the nitroarenes to amines at the interface of a ternary hybrid containing silver nanoparticles doped reduced graphene oxide/ graphitic carbon nitride under visible light. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 387:121700.

Abstract
In this report, a ternary Ag-rGO/g-C3N4 hybrid was synthesized by a simple hydrothermal approach for the photocatalytic reduction of nitroarene compounds into their corresponding amines under visible light. Importantly, the present method did not require reducing agents, like hydrazine hydrate; instead methanol has been used as a source of electrons and protons for the photoreduction process. After grafting of Ag NPs, a significant enhancement in the efficiency of the rGO/g-C3N4 for the reduction of nitrobenzenes was observed. Under optimized experimental conditions, the conversion of nitrobenzene and yield of aniline were determined to be 99% and 98%, respectively under visible light illumination for 4 h. The nitrobenzene compounds bearing both electron donating and withdrawing groups were selectively converted into their corresponding aniline products without altering the functionality. The enhanced performance of the developed photocatalyst attributed to the effective separation of photoexcited electrons on the photocatalyst surface and their subsequent transfer for the reduction of nitrobenzene molecules.

Abstract
Two dimensional (2D) materials have offered unique electrical, chemical, mechanical and physical properties over the past decade owing to their ultrathin, flexible, and multilayer structure. These layered materials are being used in numerous electronic devices for various applications, and this review will specifically focus on the resistive random access memories (RRAMs) based on 2D materials and their nanocomposites. This study presents the device structures, conduction mechanisms, resistive switching properties, fabrication technologies, challenges and future aspects of 2D-materials-based RRAMs. Graphene, derivatives of graphene and MoS2 have been the major contributors among 2D materials for the application of RRAMs; however, other members of this family such as hBN, MoSe2, WS2 and WSe2 have also been inspected more recently as the functional materials of nonvolatile RRAM devices. Conduction in these devices is usually dominated by either the penetration of metallic ions or migration of intrinsic species. Most prominent advantages offered by RRAM devices based on 2D materials include fast switching speed (<10 ns), less power losses (10 pJ), lower threshold voltage (<1 V) long retention time (>10 years), high electrical endurance (>108 voltage cycles) and extended mechanical robustness (500 bending cycles). Resistive switching properties of 2D materials have been further enhanced by blending them with metallic nanoparticles, organic polymers and inorganic semiconductors in various forms.

Abstract
The pervasiveness of information technologies is generating an impressive amount of data, which need to be accessed very quickly. Nonvolatile memories (NVMs) are making inroads into high-capacity storage to replace hard disk drives, fuelling the expansion of the global storage memory market. As silicon-based flash memories are approaching their fundamental limit, vertical stacking of multiple memory cell layers, innovative device concepts, and novel materials are being investigated. In this context, emerging 2D materials, such as graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides, and black phosphorous, offer a host of physical and chemical properties, which could both improve existing memory technologies and enable the next generation of low-cost, flexible, and wearable storage devices. Herein, an overview of graphene and related 2D materials (GRMs) in different types of NVM cells is provided, including resistive random-access, flash, magnetic and phase-change memories. The physical and chemical mechanisms underlying the switching of GRM-based memory devices studied in the last decade are discussed. Although at this stage most of the proof-of-concept devices investigated do not compete with state-of-the-art devices, a number of promising technological advancements have emerged. Here, the most relevant material properties and device structures are analyzed, emphasizing opportunities and challenges toward the realization of practical NVM devices.

Abstract
Solution-processable nonvolatile memory devices, consisted of graphene oxide (GO) embedded into an insulating polymer polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), were manufactured. By varying the GO content in PMMA nanocomposite films, the memristic conductance behavior of the Ni/PMMA:GO/Indium tin oxide (ITO) sandwiched structure can be tuned in a controllable manner. An investigation was made on the memristic performance mechanism regarding GO charge-trap memory; these blends were further characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), Raman spectra, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectra in particular. Dependent on the GO content, the resistive switching was originated from the charges trapped in GO, for which bipolar tunable memristic behaviors were observed. PMMA:GO composites possess an ideal capability for large area device applications with the benefits of superior electronic properties and easy chemical modification.

Abstract
Stretchable and conformable synapse memristors that can emulate the behaviour of the biological neural system and well adhere onto the curved surfaces simultaneously are desirable for the development of imperceptible wearable and implantable neuromorphic computing systems. Previous synapse memristors have been mainly limited to rigid substrates. Herein, a stretchable and conformable memristor with fundamental synaptic functions including potentiation/depression characteristics, long/short-term plasticity (STP and LTP), "learning-forgetting-relearning" behaviour, and spike-rate-dependent and spike-amplitude-dependent plasticity is demonstrated based on highly elastic Ag nanoparticle-doped thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU : Ag NPs) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). The memristor can be well operated even at 60% strain and can be well conformed onto the curved surfaces. The formed conductive filament (CF) obtained from the movement of Ag nanoparticle clusters under the locally enhanced electric field gives rise to resistance switching of our memristor. These results indicate a feasible strategy to realize stretchable and conformable synaptic devices for the development of new-generation artificial intelligence computers.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO)-based resistive-switching (RS) memories offer the promise of low-temperature solution-processability and high mechanical flexibility, making them ideally suited for future flexible electronic devices. The RS of GO can be recognized as electric-field-induced connection/disconnection of nanoscale reduced graphene oxide (RGO) conducting filaments (CFs). Instead of operating an electrical FORMING process, which generally results in high randomness of RGO CFs due to current overshoot, a TiO2 -assisted photocatalytic reduction method is used to generate RGO-domains locally through controlling the UV irradiation time and TiO2 concentration. The elimination of the FORMING process successfully suppresses the RGO overgrowth and improved RS memory characteristics are achieved in graphene oxide-TiO2 (Go-TiO2 ) nanocomposites, including reduced SET voltage, improved switching variability, and increased switching speed. Furthermore, the room-temperature process of this method is compatible with flexible plastic substrates and the memory cells exhibit excellent flexibility. Experimental results evidence that the combined advantages of reducing the oxygen-migration barrier and enhancing the local-electric-field with RGO-manipulation are responsible for the improved RS behaviors. These results offer valuable insight into the role of RGO-domains in GO memory devices, and also, this mild photoreduction method can be extended to the development of carbon-based flexible electronics.

The insight study of SnO pico size particles in an ethanol-water system followed by its biosensing application. Biosens Bioelectron 2018; 117:129-137. [PMID: 29894849 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2018.06.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2018] [Revised: 05/30/2018] [Accepted: 06/02/2018] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
Pico sized Stannous oxide particles (SnO PPs) were synthesized in an ethanol-water solvent system on the surface of nitrogen doped graphene oxide (GO). The highly conductive support was a combination of dual interactions between 4-aminomethylbenzylamine (AMBA) and GO. The oppositely positioned -NH2 linkers of the AMBA were covalently incorporated into the GO matrix through condensation reaction followed by the strong π - π stacking interactions between aromatic rings of AMBA and GO. The change in the local chemical environment of GO via dual interactions provided a suitable atmosphere for the growth and dispersion of SnO PPs on GO-AMBA surface. The possible mechanism for the formation of SnO in an ethanol-water solvent system was evaluated. Furthermore, a light was shed on the factors responsible for the pico size of SnO particles synthesis along with its phenomenal distribution on the GO-AMBA surface. The catalyst containing SnO PPs was deployed as a biosensor for the detection of ascorbic acid (AA) for the very first time. A very wide linear range of 5.0 × 10-5-7.0 × 10-3 M, limit of detection (LOD) of 1.19 × 10-5 M along with excellent practical feasibility, storage stability, repeatability and selectivity towards AA electrooxidation showed the excellent synergy between nitrogen-rich GO surface and SnO PPs. The sensitivity (885.54 µAmM-1cm-2) of the catalyst was the most attractive feature, as it was obtained in the presence of 5 and 2-fold higher concentration of UA and DA interfering species respectively.

Abstract
2D nanomaterials have been actively utilized in non-volatile resistive switching random access memory (ReRAM) devices due to their high flexibility, 3D-stacking capability, simple structure, transparency, easy fabrication, and low cost. Herein, it demonstrates re-writable, bistable, transparent, and flexible solution-processed crossbar ReRAM devices utilizing graphene oxide (GO) based multilayers as active dielectric layers. The devices employ single- or multi-component-based multilayers composed of positively charged GO (N-GO(+) or NS-GO(+)) with/without negatively charged GO(-) using layer-by-layer assembly method, sandwiched between Al bottom and Au top electrodes. The device based on the multi-component active layer Au/[N-GO(+)/GO(-)]n /Al/PES shows higher ON/OFF ratio of ≈105 with switching voltage of -1.9 V and higher retention stability (≈104 s), whereas the device based on single component (Au/[N-GO(+)]n /Al/PES) shows ≈103 ON/OFF ratio at ±3.5 V switching voltage. The superior ReRAM properties of the multi-component-based device are attributed to a higher coating surface roughness. The Au/[N-GO(+)/GO(-)]n /Al/PES device prepared from lower GO concentration (0.01%) exhibits higher ON/OFF ratio (≈109 ) at switching voltage of ±2.0 V. However, better stability is achieved by increasing the concentration from 0.01% to 0.05% of all GO-based solutions. It is found that the devices containing MnO2 in the dielectric layer do not improve the ReRAM performance.

Abstract
Although there are numerous reports of high performance supercapacitors with porous graphene, there are few reports to control the interlayer gap between graphene sheets with conductive molecular linkers (or molecular pillars) through a π-conjugated chemical carbon-carbon bond that can maintain high conductivity, which can explain the enhanced capacitive effect of supercapacitor mechanism about accessibility of electrolyte ions. For this, we designed molecularly gap-controlled reduced graphene oxides (rGOs) via diazotization of three different phenyl, biphenyl, and para-terphenyl bis-diazonium salts (BD1-3). The graphene interlayer sub-nanopores of rGO-BD1-3 are 0.49, 0.7, and 0.96 nm, respectively. Surprisingly, the rGO-BD2 0.7 nm gap shows the highest capacitance in 1 M TEABF4 having 0.68 nm size of cation and 6 M KOH having 0.6 nm size of hydrated cation. The maximum energy density and power density of the rGO-BD2 were 129.67 W h kg(-1) and 30.3 kW kg(-1), respectively, demonstrating clearly that the optimized sub-nanopore of the rGO-BDs corresponding to the electrolyte ion size resulted in the best capacitive performance.

Abstract
Due to their unique structure and outstanding intrinsic physical properties such as extraordinarily high electrical conductivity, large surface area, and various chemical functionalities, low-dimension-based materials exhibit great potential for application in electrochemical capacitors (ECs). The electrical properties of electrochemical capacitors are determined by the electrode materials. Because energy charge storage is a surface process, the surface properties of the electrode materials greatly influence the electrochemical performance of the cell. Recently, graphene, a single layer of sp(2)-bonded carbon atoms arrayed into two-dimensional carbon nanomaterial, has attracted wide interest as an electrode material for electrochemical capacitor applications due to its unique properties, including a high electrical conductivity and large surface area. Several low-dimensional materials with large surface areas and high conductivity such as onion-like carbons (OLCs), carbide-derived carbons (CDCs), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene, metal hydroxide, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), and most recently MXene, have been developed for electrochemical capacitors. Therefore, it is useful to understand the current issues of low-dimensional materials and their device applications.

Abstract
The 2H phase and 1T phase coexisting in the same molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 ) nanosheets can influence the electronic properties of the materials. The 1T phase of MoS2 is introduced into the 2H-MoS2 nanosheets by two-step hydrothermal synthetic methods. Two types of nonvolatile memory effects, namely write-once read-many times memory and rewritable memory effect, are observed in the flexible memory devices with the configuration of Al/1T@2H-MoS2 -polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)/indium tin oxide (ITO)/polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and Al/2H-MoS2 -PVP/ITO/PET, respectively. It is observed that structural phase transition in MoS2 nanosheets plays an important role on the resistive switching behaviors of the MoS2 -based device. It is hoped that our results can offer a general route for the preparation of various promising nanocomposites based on 2D nanosheets of layered transition metal dichalcogenides for fabricating the high performance and flexible nonvolatile memory devices through regulating the phase structure in the 2D nanosheets.

Abstract
The emergence of stretchable devices that combine with conductive properties offers new exciting opportunities for wearable applications. Here, a novel, convenient and inexpensive solution process was demonstrated to prepare in situ silver (Ag) or platinum (Pt) nanoparticles (NPs)-embedded rGO hybrid materials using formic acid duality in the presence of AgNO3 or H2PtCl6 at low temperature. The reduction duality of the formic acid can convert graphene oxide (GO) to rGO and simultaneously deposit the positively charged metal ion to metal NP on rGO while the formic acid itself is converted to a CO2 evolving gas that is eco-friendly. The AgNP-embedded rGO hybrid electrode on an elastomeric substrate exhibited superior stretchable properties including a maximum conductivity of 3012 S cm-1 (at 0 % strain) and 322.8 S cm-1 (at 35 % strain). Its fabrication process using a printing method is scalable. Surprisingly, the electrode can survive even in continuous stretching cycles.

Abstract
Graphitic carbon nitride nanosheet (g-C3N4-NS) has layered structure similar with graphene nanosheet and presents unusual physicochemical properties due to the s-triazine fragments. But their electronic and electrochemical applications are limited by the relatively poor conductivity. The current work provides the first example that atomically thick g-C3N4-NSs are the ideal candidate as the active insulator layer with tunable conductivity for achieving the high performance memory devices with electrical bistability. Unlike in conventional memory diodes, the g-C3N4-NSs based devices combined with graphene layer electrodes are flexible, metal-free and low cost. The functionalized g-C3N4-NSs exhibit desirable dispersibility and dielectricity which support the all-solution fabrication and high performance of the memory diodes. Moreover, the flexible memory diodes are conveniently fabricated through the fast laser writing process on graphene oxide/g-C3N4-NSs/graphene oxide thin film. The obtained devices not only have the nonvolatile electrical bistability with great retention and endurance, but also show the rewritable memory effect with a reliable ON/OFF ratio of up to 10(5), which is the highest among all the metal-free flexible memory diodes reported so far, and even higher than those of metal-containing devices.

Abstract
Supercapacitors with porous carbon structures have high energy storage capacity. However, the porous nature of the carbon electrode, composed mainly of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene oxide (GO) derivatives, negatively impacts the volumetric electrochemical characteristics of the supercapacitors because of poor packing density (<0.5 g cm(-3)). Herein, we report a simple method to fabricate highly dense and vertically aligned reduced graphene oxide (VArGO) electrodes involving simple hand-rolling and cutting processes. Because of their vertically aligned and opened-edge graphene structure, VArGO electrodes displayed high packing density and highly efficient volumetric and areal electrochemical characteristics, very fast electrolyte ion diffusion with rectangular CV curves even at a high scan rate (20 V/s), and the highest volumetric capacitance among known rGO electrodes. Surprisingly, even when the film thickness of the VArGO electrode was increased, its volumetric and areal capacitances were maintained.

We present the first example of azide functionalization on the surface of graphene oxide (GO), which preserves thermally unstable groups in GO through the mild reaction with sodium azide in solids. Experimental evidence, by (15)N solid-state NMR and other spectroscopic methods, indicates the substitution of organosulfate with azide anions as the reaction mechanism.
