(X=S, Se): A New Opportunity for Development of Two-dimensional Anisotropic Materials
Ren-Yan WANG, Lin GAN, Tian-You ZHAI, [in Chinese], [in Chinese], and [in Chinese]

Two dimensional (2D) materials have attracted wide attention due to their ultrathin atomic structure, large specific surface area and quantum confinement effect which are remarkably different from their bulk counterparts. Anisotropic materials are unique among reported 2D materials. Their orientation-dependent physical and chemical properties make it possible to selectively improve the performance of materials. As representative examples, Re-based transition metal dichalcogenides (Re-TMDs) have tunable bandgaps in visible spectrum, extremely weak interlayer coupling, and anisotropic properties in optics and electronics, which make them attractive in the application areas of electronics and optoelectronics. In this riviev, the unique crystal structures and intrinsic properties of the Re-based TMDs semiconductors are introduced firstly, and then the synthetic method is introduced, followed by discussion on the unique physical characterizations and optimized means. Finally, prospects and suggestions are put forward for the preparation and research of ReX

With the development of nuclear energy, the long-lived radionuclides are inevitably released into the natural environment during the mine process, fuel manufacture, nuclear power usable and spent fuel management, which are dangerous to human health and environmental pollution. Thereby the efficient elimination of radionuclides is an important parameter which affects the development of nuclear power. In recent years, the metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted worldwide attention in the adsorption of radionuclides from large volume of aqueous solutions, because of their high chemical stability, abundant functional groups and changeable porous structures. In this review, we mainly summarized the recent works of MOFs in the efficient removal of radionuclides, and to understand the interaction mechanism from batch adsorption experiments, model analysis, advanced spectroscopy analysis, and theoretical calculation. The adsorption capacities of MOFs with other materials were also summarized, and the future research opportunities and challenges are given in the perspective..

As the continuous development of the photovoltaic industry and the flat panel display devices, the demand for transparent electrodes is increasing rapidly. The most commonly used transparent conductive material, ITO, was criticized for its brittleness, which limited its application in the up-and-coming market. Cu nanowire transparent electrodes acts as promising candidate for the new generation of transparent electrodes due to their superior conductivity, low cost, easy accessibility and high flexibility. The synthesis of Cu nanowires and their application in transparent electrodes has drawn lots of attention. Progresses have been made in recent years. A comprehensive elaboration of the controllable synthesis of Cu nanowires through liquid synthesis methods and the mechanism behind them, the fabrication and post-treatment methods of Cu nanowire electrodes, the application of Cu nanowire electrodes in photovoltaic devices, transparent heaters and flexible devices are given. The trends of Cu nanowire electrodes is proposed..

All results indicated that the similar substitution reactions are feasible to form series of MAX phases whose A sites are Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu elements. The substitution reaction was achieved by diffusion of Zn atoms into A-layers of Ti

, which requires Al-Zn eutectic formation at high temperatures. The molten salts provided a moderate environment for substitution reaction and accelerated reaction dynamics. The major advantage of this substitution reaction is that MAX phase keeps individual metal carbide layers intact, thus the formation of competitive phases, such as MA alloys, was avoided. The proposed A-elemental substitution reactions approach opens a new door to design and synthesize novel MAX phases which could not be synthesized by the traditional methods..

As a type of novel thin film solar cells, perovskite solar cells develope sharply within a decade, which efficiency has approached to that of the commercial silicon solar cells. However, its poor stability in the air has limited the further practical application. Herein, we achieve uniform sable perovskite films under open environment by adding some poly 4-vinylpyridine (PVP). The morphology, structure and performance test results show that the perovskite films added with PVP were more compact and uniform than the bare one. Moreover, the assembled solar cell with 0.4wt% PVP exhibited highly reproducible efficiencies up to 13.07%, much higher than that of 6.09% for the controlled one. When restored in the air with approximately 50% relative humidity in the absence of encapsulation, its efficiency decay time to a half from 3 d for bare one extended to 3 w. However, high PVP additives result in incomplete reaction between PbI

Respiratory frequency and mode could be applied for medical diagnosis and health evaluation. Traditional medical diagnosing devices have bulky size and high cost, and are of inconvenience in use. To fulfill the urgent demand for high-performance, low-cost, and portable electronic devices, this study proposes to fabricate self-powered planar humidity sensors by inkjet-printing method by virtue of the characteristics that graphene oxide self-polarizes and is sensitive to humidity. This sensor linearly responds to the relative humidity, and both responds and recovers rapidly. In addition, this sensor possesses excellent sensitivity and stability after multiple cycling and long-term storage, and has realized monitoring of the respiratory frequency and mode. The humidity sensors in this work is ready to fabricate with low production cost, free from interference by body motion or exterior environment, and suitable for real-time monitoring respiratory frequency and mode..
