Adopting organizational virtualization in B2B firms: An empirical study in Singapore

We empirically tested a parsimonious model that incorporates cost-benefit analysis/transaction cost theory, institutional theory, and organizational capability-based theory to predict organizational adoption of IT-facilitated virtualization in an Asian context. Virtualization implies the use of IT and communication technology by organizations in managing their interactions and key business operations with stakeholders, such as customers, suppliers and employees. Our research extends existing literature by using organizational structure adoption theories. The study should provide insights into the salient adoption issues of Asian firms. A survey was conducted of B2B organizations in Singapore. Results indicated that an increase in the level of net perceived benefits, external influences, and organizational capabilities had a positive effect on organizational decision makers’ intention to use virtualization. In particular, external influences were found to be the most important antecedents of intention to adopt virtualization in B2B organizations in Singapore.

A Conductive 2D Conjugated Tetrathia[8]circulene-Based Nickel Metal–Organic Framework for Energy Storage

Herein, a novel D₄ symmetrical redox-active ligand tetrathia[8]circulene-2,3,5,6,8,9,11,12-octaol (8OH-TTC) is designed and synthesized, which coordinates with Ni²⁺ ions to construct a 2D conductive metal-organic framework (2D c-MOF) named Ni-TTC. Ni-TTC exhibits typical semiconducting properties with electrical conductivity up to ≈1.0 S m⁻¹ at 298 K. Furthermore, magnetism measurements show the paramagnetic property of Ni-TTC with strong antiferromagnetic coupling due to the presence of semiquinone ligand radicals and Ni²⁺ sites. In virtue of its decent electrical conductivity and good redox activity, the gravimetric capacitance of Ni-TTC is up to 249 F g⁻¹ at a discharge rate of 0.2 A g⁻¹, which demonstrates the potential of tetrathia[8]circulene-based redox-active 2D c-MOFs in energy storage applications.     

A 2.20 eV Bandgap Polymer Donor for Efficient Colorful Semitransparent Organic Solar Cells

Semitransparent organic solar cells (ST-OSCs) have attracted increasing attention due to their promising prospect in building-integrated photovoltaics. Generally, efficient ST-OSCs with good average visible transmittance (AVT) can be realized by developing active layer materials with light absorption far from the visible light range. Herein, the development of ultrawide bandgap polymer donors with near-ultraviolet absorption, paired with near-infrared acceptors, is proposed to achieve high-performance ST-OSCs. The key points for the design of ultrawide bandgap polymers include constructing donor–donor type conjugated skeleton, suppressing the quinoidal resonance effect, and minimizing the twist of conjugated skeleton via noncovalent conformational locks. As a proof of concept, a polymer named PBOF with an optical bandgap of 2.20 eV is synthesized, which exhibited largely reduced overlap with the human eye photopic response spectrum and afforded a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 16.40% in opaque device. As a result, ST-OSCs with a PCE over 10% and an AVT over 30% are achieved without optical modulation. Moreover, colorful ST-OSCs with visual aesthetics can be achieved by tuning the donor/acceptor weight ratio in active layer benefiting from the ultrawide bandgap nature of PBOF. This study demonstrates the great potential of ultrawide bandgap polymers for efficient colorful ST-OSCs.     

基于声发射参数分析的滑动轴承故障诊断方法研究

本文基于声发射产生机理,对基于声发射参数分析法进行滑动轴承故障诊断方法进行理论和实验研究。首先,通过汽轮机发电机组模拟转子实验台模拟了滑动轴承三种润滑状态,通过实验台以及设计的实验方案,利用声发射采集设备对不同润滑状态的声发射信号进行采集。其次,针对采集到的不同润滑状态声发射信号,对其能量均值以及功率谱熵均值进行计算,提出了基于声发射能量均值和功率谱熵均值的散度指标的滑动轴承润滑状态诊断方法,并利用这种方法对模拟信号进行诊断,同时将其与单一能量参数分析法进行对比,发现能量参数分析法不能很好的反映出滑动轴承的三种润滑状态,而文中所提的采用多参数结合的指标诊断方法具有更好的信号适应性以及更高的区分度。     

Metal Micropatterning by Triboelectric Spark Discharge

Metal micropatterns play critical roles in flexible electronics. However, the lack of versatile strategies for micropatterning of diverse metal materials on various thin, flexible or stretchable substrates has limited the rapid development of flexible electronics. Here, a metal micropatterning method by triboelectric spark discharge under atmospheric environment is developed, where a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) is employed to precisely and safely control the voltage, current, and frequency of the spark discharges. Micropatterns of metal films like gold, silver, copper, aluminum and platinum are successfully fabricated on substrates of polyimide, polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinyl chloride, polydimethylsiloxane, paper or latex, even on ultrathin substrates (5 μm thick) without damage, where the feature sizes of metal patterns are controllable from 20 μm to 1 mm. Experimental insights into the triboelectric spark discharge behaviors and the pattern feature sizes control are discussed. A straightforward fabrication of metal patterns on the balloon surface or human skin through “handwriting” by a pencil as discharge electrode is realized. Besides metals, extended processibility of conductive materials like carbon nanotubes, graphene, MXene, graphite, carbon fibers, and conductive polymers are also demonstrated. This work proves the possibility of microfabrication by TENG, which is of simplicity and attractiveness for flexible electronics.
