TL;DR: In this article, the electronic properties of Ti3C2Tx for different surface terminations, as achieved by different annealing temperatures, with the help of photoelectron spectroscopy, inverse photo-electron, and density functional theory calculations, were investigated.
Abstract: MXenes, an emerging family of 2D transition metal carbides and nitrides, have shown promise in various applications, such as energy storage, electromagnetic interference shielding, conductive thin films, photonics, and photothermal therapy. Their metallic nature, wide range of optical absorption, and tunable surface chemistry are the key to their success in those applications. The physical properties of MXenes are known to be strongly dependent on their surface terminations. In this study, we investigated the electronic properties of Ti3C2Tx for different surface terminations, as achieved by different annealing temperatures, with the help of photoelectron spectroscopy, inverse photoelectron spectroscopy, and density functional theory calculations. We find that fluorine occupies solely the face-centered cubic adsorption site, whereas oxygen initially occupies at least two different adsorption sites, followed by a rearrangement after fluorine desorption at high annealing temperatures. The measured electroni...

TL;DR: This study showed that intravenous ketamine administered in an outpatient setting resulted in statistically significant (p < 0.05) reductions in many pain parameters, and warrant a larger randomized placebo controlled trial using higher doses of ketamine and a longer follow‐up period.
Abstract: Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a severe chronic pain condition that most often develops following trauma. The pathophysiology of CRPS is not known but both clinical and experimental evidence demonstrate the important of the NMDA receptor and glial activation in its induction and maintenance. Ketamine is the most potent clinically available safe NMDA antagonist that has a well established role in the treatment of acute and chronic pain. This randomized double-blind placebo controlled trial was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of intravenous ketamine in the treatment of CRPS. Before treatment, after informed consent was obtained, each subject was randomized into a ketamine or a placebo infusion group. Study subjects were evaluated for at least 2 weeks prior to treatment and for 3 months following treatment. All subjects were infused intravenously with normal saline with or without ketamine for 4 h (25 ml/h) daily for 10 days. The maximum ketamine infusion rate was 0.35 mg/kg/h, not to exceed 25 mg/h over a 4 h period. Subjects in both the ketamine and placebo groups were administered clonidine and versed. This study showed that intravenous ketamine administered in an outpatient setting resulted in statistically significant (p < 0.05) reductions in many pain parameters. It also showed that subjects in our placebo group demonstrated no treatment effect in any parameter. The results of this study warrant a larger randomized placebo controlled trial using higher doses of ketamine and a longer follow-up period. 2009 International Association for the Study of Pain.

TL;DR: In this article, the most important breakthroughs in the synthesis of MXenes and high-quality ultrathin 2D transition metal carbide and nitride films are reviewed and summarized.
Abstract: In 2011, a new family of two dimensional (2D) carbides, carbonitrides and nitrides – labeled MXenes – was discovered. Since then the number of papers on these materials has increased exponentially for several reasons amongst them: their hydrophilic nature, excellent electronic conductivities and ease of synthesizing large quantities in water. This unique combination of properties and ease of processing has positioned them as enabling materials for a large, and quite varied, host of applications from energy storage to electromagnetic shielding, transparent conductive electrodes, electrocatalysis, to name a few. Since the initial synthesis of Ti3C2 in hydrofluoric acid, many more compositions were discovered, and different synthesis pathways were explored. Most of the work done so far has been conducted on top-down synthesis where a layered parent compound is etched and then exfoliated. Three bottom-up synthesis methods, chemical vapor deposition, a template method and plasma enhanced pulsed laser deposition have been reported. The latter methods enable the synthesis of not only high-quality ultrathin 2D transition metal carbide and nitride films, but also those that could not be synthesized by selective etching. This article reviews and summarizes the most important breakthroughs in the synthesis of MXenes and high-quality ultrathin 2D transition metal carbide and nitride films.
