The requirements for organic semiconductor materials and new methods for their synthesis at low temperature have risen over the last decades, especially due to concerns of sustainability. Herein, we present an innovative method for the synthesis of a so-called “red carbon” thin film, being composed of carbon and oxygen, only. This material was already described by Kappe and Ziegler at the beginning of the 20th century, but now can complement the current research on covalent organic semiconductor materials. The herein described red carbon can be homogeneous deposited on glass substrates as thin ilms which reveal a highly ordered structure. The films are highly reactive towards amines and were employed as amine vapor sensors for a scope of analogous amines. The gas-to-solid phase reaction causes a significant change of the films optical properties in all cases, blue-shifting the bandgap and the photoluminescence spectra from the red to the near UV range. The irreversible chemical reaction between the thin film and the vapor was also exploited for the preparation of nitrogen containing thin carbon films. We expect the herein presented red carbon material is of interest not only for sensing applications, but also in optoelectronics.

AbstractThe solid phase reaction of Fe thin films with (111) Si substrate was investigated at constant annealing temperature and time (700°C, 7 minutes) as a function of the initial iron film thickness (from 5 nm to 27.5 um in 2.5 nm steps). The formed phases were analysed by X-ray diffraction, Rutherford backscattering and transmission electron microscopy and optical microscopy.After annealing FeSi phase was detected in the thinner samples. Samples with Fe layers thicker than 12.5 nm contained a β-FeSi2 phase. This special phase sequence was explained with the help of a nucleation controlled phase formation model, taking into consideration the critical radius of nuclei of the new phase. The advantages of using the film thickness as a variable during investigation of solid phase thin film reactions and the probable substrate effects are also discussed.

Fe3O4@C nanoparticles were prepared by an in situ, solid-phase reaction, without any precursor, using FeSO4, FeS2, and PVP K30 as raw materials. The nanoparticles were utilized to decolorize high concentrations methylene blue (MB). The results indicated that the maximum adsorption capacity of the Fe3O4@C nanoparticles was 18.52 mg/g, and that the adsorption process was exothermic. Additionally, by employing H2O2 as the initiator of a Fenton-like reaction, the removal efficiency of 100 mg/L MB reached ~99% with Fe3O4@C nanoparticles, while that of MB was only ~34% using pure Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The mechanism of H2O2 activated on the Fe3O4@C nanoparticles and the possible degradation pathways of MB are discussed. The Fe3O4@C nanoparticles retained high catalytic activity after five usage cycles. This work describes a facile method for producing Fe3O4@C nanoparticles with excellent catalytic reactivity, and therefore, represents a promising approach for the industrial production of Fe3O4@C nanoparticles for the treatment of high concentrations of dyes in wastewater.
