A facile method for the preparation of microwave absorbers with low density, high microwave absorptivity, and broad band is of paramount importance to the progress in practical application. Herein, commonly-used metal organic frameworks (MOFs) prepared just by mechanical stirring in methanol at room temperature were chosen as sacrificial templates to synthesize porous carbon composites with tunable dielectric and magnetic properties. With the replacement of Co atoms on the surface of zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) by Zn atoms, a Co-doped porous carbon composite with a low-dielectric amorphous carbon/Zn shell was constructed after annealing, leading to excellent impedance matching condition. Consequently, the as-obtained composite (Co/C@C-800) shows marvelous microwave absorption properties with an absorption capacity of −43.97 dB and a corresponding effective absorption bandwidth of 4.1 GHz, far exceeding that of the traditional porous carbon and composites directly derived from ZIF-67. The results provide a convenient way to modify MOFs for enhanced microwave absorption materials from the synergy of dielectric and magnetic losses.

AbstractRecently, layered two-dimensional (2D) palladium diselenide (PdSe2), with a unique low- symmetry puckered pentagon atomic morphology, has emerged as a promising candidate for next-generation nanoelectronics and optoelectronics because of its chemical stability and extraordinary electrical properties. Moreover, PdSe2 possesses a strong thickness-dependent bandgap that varies from 0 eV for bulk to 1.3 eV for monolayer, which can further render its potential applications in optoelectronics. However, the layer-dependent optoelectronic properties of PdSe2 are still lacking up to date. Herein, we studied the optoelectronics transport characteristics of high-quality PdSe2-based photodetectors with different thicknesses. We demonstrated an enhancement of PdSe2 photodetector performance owing to the band engineering via a thickness reduction. The highest responsivity of 5.35 A/W can be achieved with an external quantum efficiency of 1250% at the wavelength of 532 nm. We attribute such high performance in photoresponsivity to the high valley convergence in the conduction band of layered PdSe2, in agreement with first-principles calculation. Our results offer new insight into the layer-dependent optoelectronic properties of PdSe2 and open new avenues in engineering next-generation 2D-based electronics and optoelectronics.

Background: Ferruginol (FRGN) exhibits a broad range of pharmacological properties which make it a promising candidate for chemoprevention. However, little is known about its absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) properties. Methods: A rapid, sensitive and specific HPLC-DAD method was established to quantify FRGN in the plasma and tissues of Wistar rats. After extraction of FRGN with ethyl acetate (EtOAc), chromatographic separation was performed on a YMC ODS C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm I.D., 5 µm) with a mobile phase consisting of methanol-water (92:8, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.9 mL/min. Detection was conducted with a wavelength of 273 nm at 25 °C. Results: The calibration curves for FRGN were linear in the concentration range of 0.5-20 µg/mL for plasma, 0.5-10 µg/mL for heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, stomach, intestine, brain and muscle. After three cycles of freezing and thawing, the concentration variations were within ± 7% of nominal concentrations, indicating no significant substance loss during repeated thawing and freezing. The assay was applied to pharmacokinetic and tissue distribution study in rats. Results suggested that lung, heart, liver, spleen and kidney were the major distribution tissues of FRGN in rats, and FRGN could permeate the blood-brain barrier to distribute in the brain of rats. Conclusion: The information provided by this research is very useful for gaining knowledge of the pharmacokinetic process and tissue distribution of FRGN.
