VO2/GaAs异质结的制备及其光电特性研究

采用直流磁控溅射和后退火氧化工艺在p型GaAs单晶衬底上成功制备了n-VO_2/pGaAs异质结,研究了不同退火温度和退火时间对VO_2/GaAs异质结性能的影响,并分析其结晶取向、化学组分、膜层质量以及光电特性。结果表明,在退火时间2 h和退火温度693 K下能得到相变性能最佳的VO_2薄膜,相变前后电阻变化约2个数量级。VO_2/GaAs异质结在308 K、318 K和328 K温度下具有较好的整流特性,对应温度下的阈值跳变电压分别为6.9 V、6.6 V和6.2 V,该结果为基于VO_2相变特性的异质结光电器件的设计与应用提供了可行性。

Balancing the strength and ductility of Mg-6Zn-0.2Ca alloy via sub-rapid solidification combined with hard-plate rolling

In this study,we successfully prepared a Mg-6Zn-0.2Ca alloy by utilizing sub-rapid solidification (SRS)combined with hard-plate rolling (HPR),whose elongation-to-failure increases from ～17 ％ to ～23 ％without sacrificing tensile strength (～290 MPa) compared with its counterpart processed via conven-tional solidification (CS) followed by HPR.Notably,both samples feature a similar refined grain structure with an average grain size of ～2.1 and ～2.5 μm,respectively.However,the high cooling rate of ～ 150 K/s introduced by SRS modified both the size and morphology of Ca2Mg6Zn3 eutectic phase in comparison to those coarse ones under CS condition.By subsequent HPR,the Ca2Mg6Zn3 phase was further refined and dispersed uniformly by severe fragmentation.Specially,the achieved supersaturation containing exces-sive Ca solute atoms due to high cooling rate was maintained in the SRS-HPR condition.The mechanisms that govern the high ductility of the SRS-HPR sample could be ascribed to following reasons.First,refined Ca2Mg6Zn3 eutectic phase could effectively alleviate or avoid the crack initiation.Furthermore,excessive Ca solute atoms in α-Mg matrix result in the yield point phenomenon and enhanced strain-hardening ability during tension.The findings proposed a short-processed strategy towards superior performance of Mg-6Zn-0.2Ca alloy for industrial applications.     

Fabrication of ultrafast temperature-responsive nanofibrous hydrogel with superelasticity and its 'on–off' switchable drug releasing capacity

The temperature-responsive bulky hydrogel with fast response rate and satisfactory mechanical property has fascinating application potential in many aspects, such as the implantable macroscale controlled drug release carrier for post-surgical therapy; however, creating such a smart hydrogel was proven extremely challenging. Here a novel type of temperature-responsive bulky hydrogel with ultrafast response rate and super compressible elasticity was fabricated by the fibrous freeze-shaping technique using shortened temperature-responsive polymer based electrospun hollow nanofibers as building blocks, followed by heat treatment for endowing the hydrogel with high stability in water. Because the hydrogel has hierarchical porous structure and its constituent nanofibers have hollow structure, which are beneficial to diffusion of its embodied water during temperature-induced volume phase transition, its temperature-response time is less than 30 s. In addition, the hierarchical porous structure benefits dissipation of the compression stress exerted on the hydrogel. Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-dextran as a model biomacromolecular drug, was loaded into the shells of the hollow nanofibers during coaxial electrospinning, and the ultimately obtained nanofibrous hydrogel can release its loaded FITC-dextran in a 'on–off' switchable fashion in response to temperature alternation between 15 and 47°C. Cell cytotoxicity test results demonstrate that the temperature-responsive nanofibrous hydrogel is biocompatible.
