RESUMEN

Lead-based halide perovskite nanomaterials with excellent optical properties have aroused great attention in the fields of solar cells, light-emitting diodes, lasing, X-ray imaging, etc. However, the toxicity of lead prompts researchers to develop alternatives to cut down the usage of lead. Herein, all-inorganic manganese-based perovskite derivatives, CsMnCl3 nanocrystals (NCs), with uniform size and morphology have been synthesized successfully via a modified hot-injection method. These NCs have a direct bandgap of 4.08 eV and a broadband emission centered at 660 nm. Through introducing modicum lead (1%) into the CsMnCl3 NCs, the photoluminescence intensity greatly improves, and the quantum yield (PLQY) increases from 0.7% to 21%. Furthermore, the CsMnCl3 :1%Pb NCs feature high-efficiency of X-ray absorption and radioluminescence, which make these NCs promising candidates for X-ray imaging.

RESUMEN

Na-ion batteries are one of the best technologies for large-scale applications depending on almost infinite and widespread sodium resources. However, the state-of-the-art separators cannot meet the engineering needs of large-scale sodium-ion batteries to match the intensively investigated electrode materials. Here, a kind of flexible modified cellulose acetate separator (MCA) for sodium-ion batteries was synthesized via the electrospinning process and subsequently optimizing the interface chemical groups by changing acetyl to hydroxyl partly. Upon the rational design, the flexible MCA separator exhibits high chemical stability and excellent wettability (contact angles nearly 0°) in electrolytes (EC/PC, EC/DMC, diglyme, and triglyme). Moreover, the flexible MCA separator shows high onset temperature of degradation (over 250 °C) and excellent thermal stability (no shrinkage at 220 °C). Electrochemical measurements, importantly, show that the Na-ion batteries with flexible MCA separator exhibit ultralong cycle life (93.78%, 10 000 cycles) and high rate capacity (100.1 mAh g-1 at 10 C) in the Na/Na3V2(PO4)3 (NVP) half cell (2.5-4.0 V) and good cycle performance (98.59%, 100 cycles) in the Na/SnS2 half cell (0.01-3 V), respectively. Moreover, the full cell (SnS2/NVP) with flexible MCA separator displays the capacity of 98 mAh g-1 and almost no reduction after 40 cycles at 0.118 A g-1. Thus, this work provides a kind of flexible modified cellulose acetate separator for Na-ion batteries with great potential for practical large-scale applications.
