9 ± 1.1% for α-helix, 4.6 ± 0.8% for β-sheet, and 6.3 ± 2.2% for the "other" structures when using ASLR.Hierarchically porous ceramics with a high specific surface area and interconnected porosity may find potential application as particulate filters, catalyst supports, and battery electrodes. We report the design and programmable assembly of cellular ceramic architectures with controlled pore size, volume, and interconnectivity across multiple length scales via direct foam writing. Specifically, binary colloidal gel foams are created that contain entrained bubbles stabilized by the irreversible adsorption of attractive alumina and carbon (porogen) particles at their air-water interfaces. Composition effects on foam ink rheology and printing behavior are investigated. Sintered ceramic foams exhibited specific permeabilities that increased from 2 × 10-13 to 1 × 10-12 m2 and compressive strengths that decreased from 40 to 1 MPa, respectively, with increasing specific interfacial area. Using direct foam writing, 3D ceramic lattices composed of open-cell foam struts were fabricated with tailored mechanical properties and interconnected porosity across multiple length scales.Solar-driven steam generation is a promising technology for the production of freshwater from seawater and polluted water. High water evaporation rates have been achieved via the interfacial heating scheme; however, they are still limited to meet the increasing need for freshwater due to the restricted evaporation area of two-dimensionally (2D) geometrical planar photothermal membranes. Herein, a three-dimensionally (3D) structured solar evaporator is prepared via coating photothermal polypyrrole (PPy) on the spike of Setaria viridis(S. viridis) for highly efficient evaporation. Due to the enlarged evaporation area and open structure for vapor dissipation, the PPy-coated S. viridis spike solar evaporator shows a high water evaporation rate of 3.72 kg m-2 h-1 under one sun illumination. The 3D solar evaporator also demonstrates good durability and anti-salt-clogging performance for real-life applications. Furthermore, we show that the 3D solar evaporator demonstrates effective decontamination of saline water, dye-contaminated water, and corrosive water. This work can inspire new paradigms toward developing high-performance solar steaming technologies for effective water purification to address the worldwide crisis of freshwater shortage.Correlations between excitons, that is, electron-hole pairs, have a great impact on the optoelectronic properties of semiconductor quantum dots and thus are relevant for applications such as lasers and photovoltaics. Upon multiphoton excitation, these correlations lead to the formation of multiexciton states. It is challenging to observe these states spectroscopically, especially higher multiexciton states, because of their short lifetimes and nonradiative decay. Moreover, solvent contributions in experiments with coherent signal detection may complicate the analysis. Here we employ multiple-quantum two-dimensional (2D) fluorescence spectroscopy on colloidal CdSe1-xS x /ZnS alloyed core/shell quantum dots. We selectively map the electronic structure of multiexcitons and their correlations by using two- and three-quantum 2D spectroscopy, conducted in a simultaneous measurement. Our experiments reveal the characteristics of biexcitons and triexcitons such as transition dipole moments, binding energies, and correlated transition energy fluctuations. We determine the binding energies of the first six biexciton states by simulating the two-quantum 2D spectrum. By analyzing the line shape of the three-quantum 2D spectrum, we find strong correlations between biexciton and triexciton states. Our method contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of multiexcitonic species in quantum dots and other semiconductor nanostructures.The distribution of electric fields in hexagonal boron nitride is mapped down to the atomic level inside a scanning transmission electron microscope by using the recently introduced technique of differential phase contrast imaging. The maps are calculated and displayed in real time, along with conventional annular dark-field images, through the use of custom-developed hardware and software. An increased electric field is observed around boron monovacancies and subsequently mapped and measured relative to the perfect lattice. The edges of extended defects feature enhanced electric fields, which can be used to trap diffusing adatoms. GNE317 The magnitude of the electric field produced by the different types of edges is compared to monolayer areas, confirming previous predictions regarding their stability. These observations provide insight into the properties of this interesting material, serving as a suitable platform on which to test the limits of this technique, and encourage further work, such as dynamic experiments coupled with in situ techniques.Marine oil spill cleanup is one of the major challenges in recent years due to its detrimental effect on our ecosystem. Hence, the development of new superhydrophobic oil absorbent materials is in high demand. The third-generation porous materials, namely metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), have drawn great attention due to their fascinating properties. In this work, a superhydrophobic MOF with UiO-66 (SH-UiO-66) topology was synthesized strategically with a new fluorinated dicarboxylate linker to absorb oil selectively from water. The fully characterized superhydrophobic MOF showed extreme water repellency with an advancing water contact angle (WCA) of 160° with a contact angle hysteresis (CAH) of 8°. The newly synthesized porous MOF (SBET = 873 m2 g-1) material with high WCA found its promising application in oil/water separation. The superhydrophobic SH-UiO-66 MOF was further used for the in-situ coating on naturally abundant cotton fiber to make a superhydrophobic MOF@cotton composite material. The MOF-coated cotton fiber composite (SH-UiO-66@CFs) showed water repellency with a WCA of 163° and a low CAH of 4°. The flexible superhydrophobic SH-UiO-66@CFs showed an oil absorption capacity more than 2500 wt % for both heavy and light oils at room temperature. The superoleophilicity of SH-UiO-66@CFs was further exploited to separate light floating oil as well as sedimentary heavy oil from water. SH-UiO-66@CFs material can also separate oil from the oil/water mixture by gravity-directed active filtration. Hence, the newly developed MOF-based composite material has high potential as an oil absorbent material for marine oil spill cleanup.
