The heat transport mechanisms in superlattices are identified from the cross‐plane thermal conductivity Λ of (AlN)x–(GaN)y superlattices measured by time‐domain thermoreflectance. For (AlN)4.1 nm–(GaN)55 nm superlattices grown under different conditions, Λ varies by a factor of two; this is attributed to differences in the roughness of the AlN/GaN interfaces. Under the growth condition that gives the lowest Λ, Λ of (AlN)4 nm–(GaN)y superlattices decreases monotonically as y decreases, Λ = 6.35 W m−1 K−1 at y = 2.2 nm, 35 times smaller than Λ of bulk GaN. For long‐period superlattices (y > 40 nm), the mean thermal conductance G of AlN/GaN interfaces is independent of y, G ≈ 620 MW m−2 K−1. For y < 40 nm, the apparent value of G increases with decreasing y, reaching G ≈ 2 GW m−2 K−1 at y < 3 nm. MeV ion bombardment is used to help determine which phonons are responsible for heat transport in short period superlattices. The thermal conductivity of an (AlN)4.1 nm–(GaN)4.9 nm superlattice irradiated by 2.3 MeV Ar ions to a dose of 2 × 1014 ions cm−2 is reduced by <35%, suggesting that heat transport in these short‐period superlattices is dominated by long‐wavelength acoustic phonons. Calculations using a Debye‐Callaway model and the assumption of a boundary scattering rate that varies with phonon‐wavelength successfully capture the temperature, period, and ion‐dose dependence of Λ.  相似文献

The primary technology of next‐generation wearable electronics pursues the development of highly deformable and stable systems. Here, nonvolatile, highly transparent, and ultrastretchable ionic conductors based on polymeric gelators [poly(methyl methacrylate‐ran‐butyl acrylate), PMMA‐r‐PBA] and ionic liquids (IL) are proposed. A crucial strategy in the molecular design of polymer gelators is copolymerization of PMMA and IL‐insoluble low glass transition temperature (Tg) polymers that can be deformed and effectively dissipate applied strains. Highly stretchable (elongation limit ≈850%), mechanically robust (elastic modulus ≈3.1 × 105 Pa), and deformation durable (recovery ratio ≈96.1% after 500 stretching/releasing cycles) gels are obtained by judiciously adjusting the molecular characteristics of polymer gelators and gel composition. An extremely simple “ionic” strain sensory platform is fabricated by directly connecting the stretchable gel and a digital multimeter, exhibiting high sensitivity (gauge factor ≈2.73), stable operation (>13 000 cycles), and nonvolatility (>10 d in air). Moreover, the skin‐type strain sensor, referred to as ionoskin, is demonstrated. The gels are attached to a part of the body (e.g., finger, elbow, knee, or ankle) and various human movements are successfully monitored. The ionoskin renders the opportunity to achieve wearable ubiquitous electronics such as healthcare devices and smart textile systems.  相似文献

In the emerging Internet of Things, stretchable antennas can facilitate wireless communication between wearable and mobile electronic devices around the body. The proliferation of wireless devices transmitting near the human body also raises interference and safety concerns that demand stretchable materials capable of shielding electromagnetic interference (EMI). Here, an ultrastretchable conductor is fabricated by depositing a crumple‐textured coating composed of 2D Ti3C2Tx nanosheets (MXene) and single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) onto latex, which can be fashioned into high‐performance wearable antennas and EMI shields. The resulting MXene‐SWNT (S‐MXene)/latex devices are able to sustain up to an 800% areal strain and exhibit strain‐insensitive resistance profiles during a 500‐cycle fatigue test. A single layer of stretchable S‐MXene conductors demonstrate a strain‐invariant EMI shielding performance of ≈30 dB up to 800% areal strain, and the shielding performance is further improved to ≈47 and ≈52 dB by stacking 5 and 10 layers of S‐MXene conductors, respectively. Additionally, a stretchable S‐MXene dipole antenna is fabricated, which can be uniaxially stretched to 150% with unaffected reflected power <0.1%. By integrating S‐MXene EMI shields with stretchable S‐MXene antennas, a wearable wireless system is finally demonstrated that provides mechanically stable wireless transmission while attenuating EM absorption by the human body.  相似文献

A protocol for characterizing relaxation of anisotropic strain in thin films of 10 mol% Eu‐ or Sm‐doped ceria is described. The method is based on comparison of Raman spectra and X‐ray diffraction patterns from substrate‐supported films, displaying in‐plane compressive strain (initial state), with analogous data from 2 mm diameter self‐supported films (i.e., membranes), prepared by partial substrate removal (final state). These membranes are found to be relaxed, i.e., approximately unstrained, but with increased unit cell volume. The effective (i.e., 2‐state) Grüneisen parameter of the F2g Raman active mode for these films is calculated to be 0.4 ± 0.1, which is ≈30% of the literature value for the corresponding ceramics under isostatic pressure. On this basis, it is found that the observed red‐shift of the F2g mode frequency following isothermal strain relaxation of the doped ceria thin films cannot be determined solely by the increase in average unit cell volume. The study presented here may shed light on the suitability of Raman spectroscopy as a technique for characterizing strain in lanthanide‐doped ceria thin films.  相似文献

In this paper, a new precoding scheme that is based on the operations in Galois field of size q = 2m(GF(q)) is proposed. Generally, precoding is a processing technique at transmitters to match the input signal to the channel in order to achieve optimal channel capacity through fully utilizing space, time, and frequency diversity. Precoding schemes can be divided into two main categories: linear precoding and nonlinear precoding. It has been shown from an information theoretical aspect that both the linear and nonlinear precoding schemes can achieve the optimal channel capacity. Our proposed GF(q)‐based precoding scheme is a nonlinear precoding technique, and the idea originates from finite inputs of the modulated symbols. When representing the modulated symbols and the elements in precoding matrix with the finite elements in Galois field of size q, and applying the operations defined in GF(q), we can obtain the precoded symbols that contains information of the original symbols. Starting from binary symmetry channel to additive Gaussian white noise channels, we have demonstrated that the proposed GF(q)‐based precoding schemes can enhance the system mutual information when the original finite inputs are not uniformly distributed. In addition, inspired by the mutual information analysis in binary symmetry channel, we investigated the selection of the precoding matrix in GF(q)‐based precoding schemes. As mutual information indicates the information about the source carried by the symbols of the channel output, greater mutual information enables the receivers to recover more information about the original source. To further utilize the greater mutual information brought by the proposed GF(q)‐based precoding schemes, we proposed a novel‐receiving structure by exchanging soft information between the GF(q) decoding block and channel decoding block. Simulation results show that the proposed iterative receiver improves the system bit error rate performance by 1 and 2 dB at the bit error rate level of 10 − 6 with binary phase shift keying and quadrature phase shift keying modulations, respectively. Inspired by the encouraging results of greater mutual information and better bit error rate performance, we are convinced that the proposed GF(q)‐based precoding schemes can be extended to fading channels and multiple input–multiple output systems to further approach channel capacity.

The integration of nanomaterials with high conductivity into stretchable polymer fibers can achieve novel functionalities such as sensing physical deformations. With a metallic conductivity that exceeds other solution‐processed nanomaterials, 2D titanium carbide MXene is an attractive material to produce conducting and stretchable fibers. Here, a scalable wet‐spinning technique is used to produce Ti3C2Tx MXene/polyurethane (PU) composite fibers that show both conductivity and high stretchability. The conductivity at a very low percolation threshold of ≈1 wt% is demonstrated, which is lower than the previously reported values for MXene‐based polymer composites. When used as a strain sensor, the MXene/PU composite fibers show a high gauge factor of ≈12900 (≈238 at 50% strain) and a large sensing strain of ≈152%. The cyclic strain sensing performance is further improved by producing fibers with MXene/PU sheath and pure PU core using a coaxial wet‐spinning process. Using a commercial‐scale knitting machine, MXene/PU fibers are knitted into a one‐piece elbow sleeve, which can track various movements of the wearer's elbow. This study establishes fundamental insights into the behavior of MXene in elastomeric composites and presents strategies to achieve MXene‐based fibers and textiles with strain sensing properties suitable for applications in health, sports, and entertainment.  相似文献

Hybrid PbS nanocrystal/C60 fullerite photodetectors are fabricated using a simple one‐step drop casting procedure onto pre‐patterned interdigitated electrodes. The devices exhibit a broad spectral response from the near UV through to the near infrared yielding a detectivity, D*, of above 1010 Jones from 400 nm to ≈1050 nm. The ability to further extend the spectral response to wavelengths ≈1350 nm in the near infrared via tuning of the PbS nanocrystal diameter is also demonstrated. The dynamic responses of the devices are presented, exhibiting a fast photocurrent rise time (<40 ns) followed by a long bi‐exponential decay with characteristic lifetimes of τ1 = 5.3 μs ± 0.1 μs and τ2 = 37.8 μs ± 0.7 μs. These devices, which have a detectivity approaching that of commercial detectors, a broader spectral response, and a fast rise time, offer an attractive low‐cost solution for large‐area broadband photodetectors.  相似文献

Delicate engineering of chromaticity is required to faithfully reproduce colors in a backlit display, this is extremely difficult for green downconverters because the human eye is highly sensitive to green colors. The central challenge is to achieve finely tunable green emissions in the narrow range of 525–535 nm while keeping the full width at half maximum (FWHM) <25 nm at the same time. Here, a room‐temperature ion‐exchange‐mediated self‐assembly strategy for preparing FAPbBr3 (FA = CH(NH2)2+) nanoplates (NPs) to fulfill this goal is introduced. 2D layered OA2PbBr4 (OA is octadecylamine) NPs are first synthesized by spontaneous reprecipitation, and are then transformed into FAPbBr3 NPs through a OA+‐to‐FA+ exchange induced self‐assembly of HP monolayers. A c‐axis contraction in this process makes a relative large thickness variation in OA2PbBr4 NPs, which can be realized by simply varying the precursor concentration, only result in a small thickness change in subsequent FAPbBr3 NPs, thereby enabling finely tunable emissions in the range of 525–535 nm along with FWHM <25 nm and a quantum yield up to 85%. As a downconverter, the FAPbBr3 NPs realize an ultrapure green backlight that covers ≈95% Rec. 2020 standard in the CIE 1931 color space.  相似文献

Highly efficient and bendable organic solar cells (OSCs) are fabricated using solution‐processed silver nanowire (Ag NW) electrodes. The Ag NW films were highly transparent (diffusive transmittance ≈ 95% at a wavelength of 550 nm), highly conductive (sheet resistance ≈ 10 Ω sq?1), and highly flexible (change in resistance ≈ 1.1 ± 1% at a bending radius of ≈200 μm). Power conversion efficiencies of ≈5.80 and 5.02% were obtained for devices fabricated on Ag NWs/glass and Ag NWs/poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), respectively. Moreover, the bendable devices fabricated using the Ag NWs/PET films decrease slightly in their efficiency (to ≈96% of the initial value) even after the devices had been bent 1000 times with a radius of ≈1.5 mm.  相似文献

Two‐terminal selectors with high nonlinearity, based on bidirectional threshold switching (TS) behaviors, are considered as a crucial element of crossbar integration for emerging nonvolatile memory and neuromorphic network. Although great efforts have been made to obtain various selectors, existing selectors cannot fully satisfy the rigorous standard of assorted memristive elements and it is in great demand to enhance the performance. Here, a new type of Ag/TaOx/TaOy/TaOx/Ag (x < y) selector based on homogeneous trilayered oxides is developed to attain the required parameters including bidirectional TS operation, a large selectivity of ≈1010, a high compliance current up to 1 mA, and ultralow switching voltages under 0.2 V. Tunable operation voltages can be realized by modulating the thickness of inserted TaOy. All‐TaOx‐based integrated 1S1R (one selector and one memristor) cells, prepared completely by magnetron sputtering and no need of a middle electrode, exhibit a nonlinear feature, which is quite characteristic for the crossbar devices, avoiding undesired crosstalk current issues. The tantalum‐oxide‐based homojunctions offer high insulation, low ion mobility, and rich interfaces, which is responsible for the modulation of Ag conductive filaments and corresponding high‐performance cation‐based selector. These findings might advance practical implementation of two‐terminal selectors in emerging memories, especially resistive random access memories.  相似文献

Bifacial applications are a promising way to increase the performance of photovoltaic systems. Two silicon solar cell concepts suitable for bifacial operation are the passivated emitter, rear totally diffused (PERT) and the both sides collecting and contacted (BOSCO) cell concepts. This work investigates the bifacial potential of these concepts by means of in‐depth numerical device simulation and experiment with a focus on the impact of varying material quality. It is shown that the PERT cell concept (representing a structure with front‐side emitter only) requires high‐minority‐carrier‐diffusion‐length substrates with Lbulk > 3 × W (with cell thickness W) to exploit its bifacial potential, while the BOSCO cell (representing a structure with double‐sided emitter) can already utilise its bifacial potential on substrates with significantly lower diffusion lengths down to Lbulk ≈ 0.5 × W. Experimentally, BOSCO cells with and without activated rear‐side emitter are compared. For rear‐side illumination, the activated rear‐side emitter is measured to increase internal quantum efficiency at wavelengths λ < 850 nm by up to 45%abs (factor of 9) and 30%abs (factor of 2) for cells processed on p‐type multicrystalline silicon substrates with Lbulk ≈ 0.3 × W and Lbulk ≈ 2.6 × W, respectively. For PERT cells processed on n‐type Czochralski‐grown silicon substrates, an according increase in internal quantum efficiency for rear‐side illumination of more than 20%abs (factor of 1.3) is measured when changing from a substrate with Lbulk ≈ 3.0 to 10.0 × W. The performed simulations and experiments demonstrate that the BOSCO cell concept is a promising candidate to successfully exploit bifacial gain also on low‐ to medium‐diffusion‐length substrates such as p‐type multicrystalline silicon, while PERT cells require a high‐diffusion‐length substrate to utilise their bifacial potential. Furthermore, the BOSCO cell concept is shown to be a promising option to achieve highest output power densities, even when using lower quality and therefore possibly more cost‐effective silicon substrates.

Solution‐processable thin‐film dielectrics represent an important material family for large‐area, fully‐printed electronics. Yet, in recent years, it has seen only limited development, and has mostly remained confined to pure polymers. Although it is possible to achieve excellent printability, these polymers have low (≈2–5) dielectric constants (εr). There have been recent attempts to use solution‐processed 2D hexagonal boron nitride (h‐BN) as an alternative. However, the deposited h‐BN flakes create porous thin‐films, compromising their mechanical integrity, substrate adhesion, and susceptibility to moisture. These challenges are addressed by developing a “one‐pot” formulation of polyurethane (PU)‐based inks with h‐BN nano‐fillers. The approach enables coating of pinhole‐free, flexible PU+h‐BN dielectric thin‐films. The h‐BN dispersion concentration is optimized with respect to exfoliation yield, optical transparency, and thin‐film uniformity. A maximum εr ≈ 7.57 is achieved, a two‐fold increase over pure PU, with only 0.7 vol% h‐BN in the dielectric thin‐film. A high optical transparency of ≈78.0% (≈0.65% variation) is measured across a 25 cm2 area for a 10 μm thick dielectric. The dielectric property of the composite is also consistent, with a measured areal capacitance variation of <8% across 64 printed capacitors. The formulation represents an optically transparent, flexible thin‐film, with enhanced dielectric constant for printed electronics.  相似文献

Changes in resistivity of serpentine single‐walled carbon nanotubes are presented as a function of bending radius, rb, in the range of 100–2000 nm. Resistivity (ρ) is observed to increase with curvature (1/rb), which is consistent with theoretical speculation on strain‐induced bandgap increment. Furthermore, a sharp bend (rb < 50nm) in the nanotubes results in a drastic change in the field‐effect behavior, i.e., from ambipolar to p type across the bend. Local Raman spectra show that the G‐band Raman frequencies shift along the curvature, which may be attributed to local deformation and broken cylindrical symmetry in the nanotubes. The results suggest the possibility to tune the electrical properties by bending nanotubes and to build an all‐nanotube device by modulating the structure of the same tube.  相似文献

Climbing plants have evolved over millions of years and have adapted to unpredictable scenarios in unique ways. These crucial features make plants an outstanding biological model for scientists and engineers. Inspired by the ratchet‐like attachment mechanism of the hook‐climber Galium aparine, a novel micropatterned flexible mechanical interlocker is fabricated using a 3D direct laser lithography technique. The artificial hooks are designed based on a morphometric analysis of natural hooks. They are characterized in terms of pull‐off and shear forces, both in an array and as individual hooks. The microprinted hooks array shows high values of pull‐off forces (up to F ≈ 0.4 N cm?2) and shear forces (up to F// ≈ 13.8 N cm?2) on several rough surfaces (i.e., abrasive materials, fabrics, and artificial skin tissues). The contact separation forces of individual artificial hooks are estimated when loads with different orientations are applied (up to F ≈ 0.26 N). In addition, a patterned tape with directional microhooks is integrated into a mobile platform to demonstrate its climbing ability on inclined surfaces of up to 45°. This research opens up new opportunities for prototyping the next generation of mechanical interlockers, particularly for soft‐ and microrobotics, the textile industry, and biomedical fields.  相似文献

A type of all‐polymer percolative composite is introduced which exhibits a very high dielectric constant (> 7000). The experimental results also show that the dielectric behavior of this new class of percolative composites follows the predictions of the percolation theory and the analysis of conductive percolation phenomena. The very high dielectric constant of the all‐polymer composites, which are also very flexible and possesses an elastic modulus close to that of the insulation polymer matrix, makes it possible to induce a high electromechanical response under a very reduced electric field (a strain of 2.65 % with an elastic energy density of 0.18 J cm–3 can be achieved under a field of 16 MV m–1). Data analysis also suggests that within the composites, the non‐uniform local field distribution as well as interface effects can significantly enhance the strain responses. Furthermore, the experimental data as well as the data analysis indicate that conduction loss in the composites will not affect the strain hysteresis.  相似文献

An R2O–B2O3–SiO2 (R = Li, Na, K) polarizing glass containing Ag nanorods is prepared by thermal elongation–reduction technology. The transverse and longitudinal plasmon absorption peaks of the embedded Ag nanorods are near 460 and 720 nm, respectively. When the polarization of the laser is parallel to the long axis of the Ag nanorods, the nonlinear absorption coefficient β = 0.82 cm GW–1 and the nonlinear refractive index n2 = –1.5 × 10–4 cm2 GW–1. When the polarization of light is perpendicular to the long axis of the Ag nanorods β = 0.12 cm GW–1 and n2 = –7.2 × 10–5 cm2 GW–1 and the appropriate one‐ and two‐photon figures of merit (FOM), W = 1.6 and T = 0.16, respectively, are obtained, which satisfies the demand, W > 1 and T < 1, for applications in all optical switching, where W is a one‐photon FOM, and T is a two‐photon FOM.  相似文献

A transparent Schottky photodiode is constructed based on a SrTiO3 (STO) wafer, in which nickel‐coated silver nanowires (AgNi NWs) are proposed as the high‐work‐function transparent electrode. A selective photoresponse to harmful short‐wavelength blue (SWB) light is generated owing to the proper bandgap of STO, and the AgNi NWs effectively strengthen the photovoltaic behavior, resulting in an ultrafast response speed (trise/tfall = 7 µs/115 µs) and photocurrent of 16–38 nA under a 0 V bias. Meanwhile, the complete device maintains a transparency of ≈60% almost over the entire visible light region and blocks 96.7% UVA and >99.9% UVB. The combination of bias‐free SWB detection and transparent UV shielding is readily applicable to protect against light pollution. Furthermore, this work proposes a considerable method to modulate the work function of transparent Ag NW electrodes by surface coating, which provides inspiration for the development of transparent electrode materials with different work functions.  相似文献

Integration of 2D membranes into 3D macroscopic structures is essential to overcome the intrinsically low stretchability of graphene for the applications in flexible and wearable electronics. Herein, the synthesis of 3D graphene films (3D‐GFs) using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is reported, in which a porous copper foil (PCF) is chosen as a template in the atmospheric‐pressure CVD preparation. When the 3D‐GF prepared at 1000 °C (noted as 3D‐GF‐1000) is transferred onto a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane, the obtained 3D‐GF‐1000/PDMS hybrid film shows an electrical conductivity of 11.6 S cm?1 with good flexibility, indicated by small relative resistance changes (ΔR/R0) of 2.67 and 0.36 under a tensile strain of 50% and a bending radius of 1.6 mm, respectively. When the CVD temperature is reduced to 900 °C (generating a sample noted as 3D‐GF‐900), the 3D‐GF‐900/PDMS hybrid film exhibits an excellent strain‐sensing performance with a workable strain range of up to 187% and simultaneously a gauge factor of up to ≈1500. The 3D‐GF‐900/PDMS also shows a remarkable durability in resistance in repeated 5000 stretching‐releasing cycles. Kinetics studies show that the response of ΔR/R0 upon strain is related to the graphitization and conductivity of 3D‐GF which are sensitive to the CVD preparation temperature.  相似文献

Composites of boron nitride (BN) and carboxylated graphene are prepared for the first time using covalent cross‐linking employing the carbodiimide reaction. The BN1–xGx (x ≈ 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75) obtained are characterized using a variety of spectroscopic techniques and thermogravimetric analysis. The composites show composition‐dependent electrical resistivity, the resistivity decreasing with increase in graphene content. The composites exhibit microporosity and the x ≈ 0.75 composite especially exhibits satisfactory performance with high stability as an electrode in supercapacitors. The x ≈ 0.75 composite is also found to be a good electrocatalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction in fuel cells.  相似文献

Developing scalable methods to produce large quantities of high‐quality and solution‐processable graphene is essential to bridge the gap between laboratory study and commercial applications. Here an efficient electrochemical dual‐electrode exfoliation approach is developed, which combines simultaneous anodic and cathodic exfoliation of graphite. Newly designed sandwich‐structured graphite electrodes which are wrapped in a confined space with porous metal mesh serve as both electrodes, enabling a sufficient ionic intercalation. Mechanism studies reveal that the combination of electrochemical intercalation with subsequent thermal decomposition results in drastic expansion of graphite toward high‐efficiency production of graphene with high quality. By precisely controlling the intercalation chemistry, the two‐step approach leads to graphene with outstanding yields (85% and 48% for cathode and anode, respectively) comprising few‐layer graphene (1–3 layers, >70%), ultralow defects (ID/IG < 0.08), and high production rate (exceeding 25 g h?1). Moreover, its excellent electrical conductivity (>3 × 104 S m?1) and great solution dispersibility in N‐methyl pyrrolidone (10 mg mL?1) enable the fabrication of highly conductive (11 Ω sq?1) and flexible graphene films by inkjet printing. This simple and efficient exfoliation approach will facilitate the development of large‐scale production of high‐quality graphene and holds great promise for its wide application.  相似文献
