Synthesis and Electrochemical Properties of CNTs/V2O5 Hollow Microspheres

采用溶剂热法制备了碳纳米管穿插的分级结构五氧化二钒空心球（VOCx）. 使用XRD、SEM、循环伏安曲线和充放电曲线研究了不同碳纳米管量对产物结构、形貌和电化学性能的影响. 结果表明，碳纳米管的加入明显改善了VOC的倍率特性. 碳纳米管含量为7.1%时，0.5 A·g-1电流密度下，其比电容达到346 F·g-1，8 A·g-1电流密度时，其电容保持率可达75%. 与活性炭组装成混合电容器，在功率密度为700 W·kg-1时，能量密度达12.6 Wh·kg-1.The carbon nanotubes/vanadium oxides (CNTs/V2O5) hollow microspheres (VOC) were prepared via solvothermal process. The effects of the ratio for CNTs to V2O5 on the morphologies, structures and electrochemical performances were systemically investigated. The results indicate that CNTs dramatically enhanced the rate performances of VOC composite electrodes. When the ratio of CNTs is 7.1%, the VOC composite electrode exhibited the best electrochemical performance, which delivered a specific capacitance of 346 F·g-1 at 0.5 A·g-1 and maintained 75% at 8 A·g-1 in 5 mol L-1 LiNO3. A hybrid capacitor was assembly using commercial activated carbon as the negative electrode and VOC as the positive electrode. The hybrid capacitor exhibited an energy density of 12.6 Wh·kg-1 and power density of 700 W·kg-1.国家自然科学基金项目（No. 21173120，No. 51372116）、国家重点基础研究发展计划（No. 2014CB239701）及江苏省自然科学基金项目（No. BK2011030）资助作者联系地址：南京航空航天大学 材料科学与技术学院，江苏省能量转换材料与技术重点实验室，江苏 南京 210016Author's Address: Jiangsu Key Laboratory of Materials and Technology for Energy Conversion, College of Material Science and Engineering, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing 210016, China通讯作者E-mail：[email protected]

JUNO Sensitivity on Proton Decay p→νˉK+p\to \bar\nu K^+ Searches

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this paper, the potential on searching for proton decay in $p\to \bar\nu K^+$ mode with JUNO is investigated.The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits to suppress the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via $p\to \bar\nu K^+$ is 36.9% with a background level of 0.2 events after 10 years of data taking. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years exposure is $9.6 \times 10^{33}$ years, competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel

JUNO sensitivity on proton decay p → ν K + searches*

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this study, the potential of searching for proton decay in the $p\to \bar{\nu} K^+$ mode with JUNO is investigated. The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits suppression of the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via $p\to \bar{\nu} K^+$ is 36.9% ± 4.9% with a background level of $0.2\pm 0.05({\rm syst})\pm$$0.2({\rm stat})$ events after 10 years of data collection. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years of exposure is $9.6 \times 10^{33}$ years, which is competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel and complements the use of different detection technologies
