ABSTRACT
Ultralong organic phosphorescence (UOP) materials glow persistently in the dark, which offers new exciting possibilities in the fields of anti-counterfeiting, photoelectric devices and biological imaging. However, the development of single-component UOP materials remains a great challenge. Herein, we develop a single component organic supramolecular zipper system with a lifetime up to 0.77â s. Owing to the introduction of a pyrazole ring into the diphenylsulfone group, the "V" shaped molecules were artfully self-assembled into supramolecular zippers via π-π and C-Hâ â â π interactions, that is not only of significance in highly efficient generation of triplet excitons but also facilitates a Dexter energy transfer process within supramolecular zippers, that are responsible for alleviating radiative and non-radiative deactivation decay of triplet excitons, to finally boost the UOP. This finding not only gives a new set of guidelines for the design of single-component UOP molecules but also reveals the UOP mechanism from a new perspective.
ABSTRACT
In this work, calcined mussel shell powder (CMSP) was activated by K2CO3 (K-CMSP), and this porous K-CMSP surface was modified by L-arginine (L-ARG) to render porous biomass a positively charged surface, which was innovatively utilized as a carrier to immobilize microalgae by adsorption via electrostatic interactions. The pore and the surface structures of CMSP and K-CMSP were characterized by XRD, FTIR, BET and SEM. The surface morphology of immobilized microalgae was visualized via using inverted optical microscope and SEM. It was found that microalgae could survive for 60â¯days, and the loss rate of chlorophyll-a preserved at -24⯰C was the lowest, 44.73%. The microalgae could revive to normal growth level within 10â¯days and the cell content of microalgae was the highest at 25⯰C, 2.8022â¯×â¯106â¯cell/mL. At 25⯰C, the highest removal rate of N and P was obtained about 95.0% and 88.63%, respectively.
