具有高耐蚀性和导电性的掺Cr类金刚石非晶碳的化学式解析

Cr掺杂的类金刚石非晶碳具有良好的导电性和耐腐蚀性,这对于燃料电池金属双极板涂层改性特别重要。使用团簇加连接原子模型对其非晶结构进行了详细解析,在该模型中,良好的玻璃形成材料由覆盖特征性最近邻团簇加上几个下一壳层原子的结构单元来表述。根据文献,在Cr掺杂的类金刚石非晶碳中占优势的团簇是Cr中心和C壳层的[Cr-C4]四面体团簇,然后将该团簇与适当的连接原子匹配,以满足电子轨道饱和原理。由此推导出了两个最优组成式,即[Cr-C4]CrC3(22.2%Cr)和[Cr-C4]Cr3C2(40%Cr),它们显示出良好的非晶态结构稳定性。实验结果显示,所提出的这两组化学组成的涂层材料兼具低电阻率(低至10-4Ω·cm)和优异的耐腐蚀性(腐蚀电流密度~10^-2μA/cm^2)。在sp2键含量和渗流理论的框架内讨论了导电和耐蚀的协同行为。这项工作验证了团簇加连接原子模型在具有高耐腐蚀性和高导电性的涂层材料成分设计中的可行性。     

Synthesis of V-doped SiC powder for growth of semi-insulating SiC crystals

V-doped semi-insulating (VDSI) SiC crystal is a promising substrate for high-frequency electronic devices achieved using GaN epitaxial films. However, V doping in a SiC crystal is difficult to control owing to the different sublimation temperatures of VC and SiC. The amount of V changes depending on the growth sequence, which has been a significant concern in VDSI SiC substrates in terms of wafer reliability.In this study, therefore, we aimed to synthesize a single source by vaporizing Si, C, and V under the same conditions to improve the doping issue in VDSI SiC. We synthesized V-doped SiC powder as the starting material for VDSI SiC substrate based on thermodynamic modeling, and the synthesized powder was used to grow a VDSI SiC crystal via physical vapor transport.Finally, considering the homogeneous V concentration in the grown crystal, the synthesized V-doped SiC was observed to be effective to grow VDSI SiC independent of the growth sequence.     

Possible origin of ferromagnetism in antiferromagnetic orthorhombic-YFeO3: A first-principles study

Rare-earth orthoferrites (RFeO₃) are well-known for the antiferromagnetic ground state. However, some of the recent experimental results suggest that the few members of RFeO₃ family possess ferromagnetism. In the present investigation we report the possible origin of ferromagnetism in antiferromagnetic YFeO₃ using density functional theory. For this purpose, we have considered pure as well as self-doping in YFeO₃ i.e. by considering the point defect at Y, Fe and O sites. Our finding suggests that the point defects in YFeO₃ results in the mixed-valence state of Fe, which may result in ferromagnetism through Zener double exchange mechanism.     

Effects of anion and cation doping on the thermoelectric properties of n-type PbS

The PbCl_xS_1-x and Pb_1-xBi_xS (x? =?0–0.05) bulks were fabricated with a facile method of hydrothermal synthesis and microwave sintering, and the effect of anionic and cationic donors on the thermoelectric performance of PbS was investigated. Although Cl^? and Bi³⁺ both effectively improved the thermoelectric properties of n-type PbS, more excellent thermoelectric performance was obtained from Cl^? doped samples because of higher electrical property and lower thermal conductivity at higher temperature (T? >?600?K). The thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) reaches 1.04 for PbCl_0.015S_0.985 at 800?K and increases with temperature increasing without sign of saturation, which is probably the highest value ever reported for single-phase polycrystalline n-type PbS. The results also indicate that the hydrothermal synthesis and microwave sintering can realize anion doping as well as cation doping for n-type PbS at low cost, and PbS should be a robust alternative for PbTe thermoelectric materials.     

Yttrium doping of Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3-δ part II: Influence on oxygen transport and phase stability

Ba_0.5Sr_0.5Co_0.8Fe_0.2O_3-δ (BSCF) in its cubic perovskite phase has attracted much interest for potential use as oxygen transport membrane (OTM) due to its very high oxygen permeability at high temperatures. However, performance degradation due to a sluggish phase decomposition occurs when BSCF is operated below 840?°C. Partial B-site substitution of the transition metal cations in BSCF by larger and redox-stable cations has emerged as a potential strategy to improve the structural stability of cubic BSCF. In this study, the influence of yttrium doping (0…10?mol-%) on oxygen transport properties and stability of the cubic BSCF phase is assessed by in situ electrical conductivity relaxation (ECR) and electrical conductivity measurements during long-term thermal annealing both at 700?°C and 800?°C. Detailed phase analysis is performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) after long-term annealing of the samples in air at different temperatures.     

Properties of polyamide 6,10/poly(vinyl alcohol) blends and impact on oxygen barrier performance

The oxygen transmission rate, average volume of free‐volume cavities (V_f) and fractional free volume (F_v) of polyamide 6,10 (PA610)/poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) (i.e. PA610_xPVA⁰⁵_y, PA610_xPVA⁰⁸_y and PA610_xPVA¹⁴_y) blend films reduced to minimum values when their PVA contents reached corresponding optimal values. Oxygen transmission rate, V_f and F_v values obtained for optimal PA610_xPVA^z_y blown films were reduced considerably with decreasing PVA degrees of polymerization. The oxygen transmission rate of the optimal bio‐based PA610₈₀PVA⁰⁵₂₀ blown film was only 2.4 cm³ (m²·day·atm)^?1, which is about the same as that of the most often used high‐barrier polymer, ethylene–vinyl alcohol copolymer. Experimental findings from dynamic mechanical analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy of the PA610_xPVA^z_y blends indicate that PA610 and PVA in the blends are miscible to some extent at the molecular level when the PVA contents are less than or equal to the corresponding optimal values. The considerably enhanced oxygen barrier properties of the PA610_xPVA^z_y blend films with optimized compositions are attributed to the significantly reduced local free‐volume characteristics. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry     

Sodium storage properties of thin phosphorus-doped graphene layers developed on the surface of nanodiamonds under hot pressing conditions

Abstract

Phosphorus-doped graphene layers have been formed on the surface of nanodiamond (ND) particles by hot pressing of a mixture of purified detonation ND powder and triphenylphosphine (TPP) at 1000?°C and 100?bar. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy detected about 1.7 at.% of phosphorus in the product, most of which was in the oxidized form. The same treatment conditions of the ND powder without the addition of TPP resulted in the only partial covering of some ND particles by sp²-hybridized carbon layers. The tests in Na-ion half-cells found that the pure carbon sample can reversibly sustain 42 mAh g^?1 at a current density of 0.1?A g^?1. For the phosphorus-doped sample, this value increases up to 54 mAh g^?1 due to mainly accumulation of sodium at various defects created in the graphitic layers as a result of phosphorus incorporation. Taking into account inertness of inner diamond cores, specific capacity values are 417 mAh g^?1 for phosphorus-doped graphene layers and 587 mAh g^?1 for non-doped ones.     

Atomic Modulation Triggering Improved Performance of MoO3 Nanobelts for Fiber‐Shaped Supercapacitors

Asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs) are emerging as a new class of energy storage devices that could potentially meet the increasing power and energy demand for next‐generation portable and flexible electronics. Yet, the energy density of ASC is severely limited by the low capacitance of the anode side, which commonly uses the carbon‐based nanomaterials. Here, the demonstration of sulfur‐doped MoO_3?x nanobelts (denoted as S‐MoO_3?x) as the anode for high‐performance fiber‐shaped ASC are reported. The Mo sites in MoO₃ are intentionally modulated at the atomic level through sulfur doping, where sulfur could be introduced into the MoO₆ octahedron to intrinsically tune the covalency character of bonds around Mo sites and thus boost the charge storage kinetics of S‐MoO_3?x. Moreover, the oxygen defects are occurring along with sulfur‐doping in MoO₃, enabling efficient electron transport. As expected, the fiber‐shaped S‐MoO_3?x achieves outstanding capacitance with good rate capability and long cycling life. More impressively, the fiber‐shaped ASC based on S‐MoO_3?x anode delivers extremely high volumetric capacitance of 6.19 F cm^?3 at 0.5 mA cm^?1, which makes it promising as one of the most attractive candidates of anode materials for high‐performance fiber‐shaped ASCs.
