The sample was cut within a {100} growth layer, and irradiated with 2 MeV electrons along the <100> axis. PL spectra of sample were collected under 532 nm and 355 nm laser excitation, at room temperature and 77 K, and linear scanning analysis along incident depth was applied to determine the distribution of defects. The pre-irradiation characterization results revealed uniformly distributed PL centers at 389 nm, 469 nm, 533 nm, 575 nm (ZPL of NV 0), 637 nm (ZPL of NV -), and 736.7/737.1 nm (ZPL doublet of SiV -). After irradiation, the differential responses of these as-grown defects were observed, alongside the emergence of irradiation-induced defects, namely 489 nm center, H3 center (ZPL at 504 nm) and GR1 center (ZPL at 741 nm). The maximum penetration depth of 2 MeV electron-irradiation induced defects was determined to be 2.1 mm. This work primarily presents the depth profiles of both as-grown and irradiation-induced defects in 2 MeV electrons irradiated diamond. The result provides experimental data for better understanding of the radiation effect in diamonds. Serving as a reference for diamond enhancement by electron irradiation.展开更多

The formation of Ag-Se phase during the selenization process enables the formation of large grains and suppresses the deep level defects. It is found that Ag doping can enlarge the depletion region width, lower the Urbach energy and prolong the carrier lifetime. As a result, a champion solution-processed CIGS solar cell presents a high efficiency of 16.48% with the highly improved opencircuit voltage(VOC) of 662 m V and fill factor(FF) of 75.8%. This work provides an efficient strategy to prepare high quality solution-processed CIGS films for high-performance CIGS solar cells.展开更多

文摘The advancement of aqueous magnesium ion energy storage devices encounters limitations due to the substantial hydration radius of magnesium ions(Mg^(2+))and their strong electrostatic interaction with the primary material.Consequently,this study successfully developed a MnS/MnO heterostructure through a straightforward hydrothermal and annealing method,marking its initial application in aqueous magnesium ion capacitors(AMICs).The fabricated MnS/MnO heterostructure,characterized by S defects,also generates Mn defects via in-situ initiation of early electrochemical processes.This unique dual ion defects MnS/MnO heterostructure(DID-MnS/MnO)enables the transformation of MnS and MnO,initially not highly active electrochemically for Mg^(2+),into cathode materials exhibiting high electrochemical activity and superior performance.Moreover,DID-MnS/MnO enhances conductivity,improves the kinetics of surface redox reactions,and increases the diffusion rate of Mg^(2+).Furthermore,this study introduces a dual energy storage mechanism for DID-MnS/MnO,which,in conjunction with dual ion defects,offers additional active sites for Mg^(2+)insertion/deinsertion in the host material,mitigating volume expansion and structural degradation during repeated charge-discharge cycles,thereby significantly enhancing cycling reversibility.As anticipated,using a three-electrode system,the developed DID-MnS/MnO demonstrated a discharge specific capacity of 237.9 mAh/g at a current density of 0.1 A/g.Remarkably,the constructed AMIC maintained a capacity retention rate of 94.3%after 10000 cycles at a current density of 1.0 A/g,with a specific capacitance of 165.7 F/g.Hence,DID-MnS/MnO offers insightful perspectives for designing alternative clean energy sources and is expected to contribute significantly to the advancement of the clean energy sector.

文摘Osteogenesis imperfecta(OI)is a group of diseases caused by defects in type I collagen processing which result in skeletal fragility.While these disorders have been regarded as defects in osteoblast function,the role of matrix-embedded osteocytes in OI pathogenesis remains largely unknown.Homozygous human SP7(c.946 C>T,R316C)mutation results in a recessive form of OI characterized by fragility fractures,low bone mineral density and osteocyte dendrite defects.To better understand how the OI-causing R316C mutation affects the function of SP7,we generated Sp7^(R342C)knock-in mice.Consistent with patient phenotypes,Sp7^(R342C/R342C)mice demonstrate increased cortical porosity and reduced cortical bone mineral density.Sp7^(R342C/R342C)mice show osteocyte dendrite defects,increased osteocyte apoptosis,and intracortical bone remodeling with ectopic intracortical osteoclasts and elevated osteocyte Tnfsf11 expression.

文摘Infectious bone defects represent a substantial challenge in clinical practice,necessitating the deployment of advanced therapeutic strategies.This study presents a treatment modality that merges a mild photothermal therapy hydrogel with a pulsed drug delivery mechanism.The system is predicated on a hydrogel matrix that is thermally responsive,characteristic of bone defect sites,facilitating controlled and site-specific drug release.The cornerstone of this system is the incorporation of mild photothermal nanoparticles,which are activated within the temperature range of 40–43°C,thereby enhancing the precision and efficacy of drug delivery.Our findings demonstrate that the photothermal response significantly augments the localized delivery of therapeutic agents,mitigating systemic side effects and bolstering efficacy at the defect site.The synchronized pulsed release,cooperated with mild photothermal therapy,effectively addresses infection control,and promotes bone regeneration.This approach signifies a considerable advancement in the management of infectious bone defects,offering an effective and patient-centric alternative to traditional methods.Our research endeavors to extend its applicability to a wider spectrum of tissue regeneration scenarios,underscoring its transformative potential in the realm of regenerative medicine.

文摘To solve the problem of low detection accuracy for complex weld defects,the paper proposes a weld defects detection method based on improved YOLOv5s.To enhance the ability to focus on key information in feature maps,the scSE attention mechanism is intro-duced into the backbone network of YOLOv5s.A Fusion-Block module and additional layers are added to the neck network of YOLOv5s to improve the effect of feature fusion,which is to meet the needs of complex object detection.To reduce the computation-al complexity of the model,the C3Ghost module is used to replace the CSP2_1 module in the neck network of YOLOv5s.The scSE-ASFF module is constructed and inserted between the neck network and the prediction end,which is to realize the fusion of features between the different layers.To address the issue of imbalanced sample quality in the dataset and improve the regression speed and accuracy of the loss function,the CIoU loss function in the YOLOv5s model is replaced with the Focal-EIoU loss function.Finally,ex-periments are conducted based on the collected weld defect dataset to verify the feasibility of the improved YOLOv5s for weld defects detection.The experimental results show that the precision and mAP of the improved YOLOv5s in detecting complex weld defects are as high as 83.4%and 76.1%,respectively,which are 2.5%and 7.6%higher than the traditional YOLOv5s model.The proposed weld defects detection method based on the improved YOLOv5s in this paper can effectively solve the problem of low weld defects detection accuracy.

文摘A comprehensive understanding of the relevance between molecular structure and passivation ability to screen efficient modifiers is essential for enhancing the performance of perovskite solar cells(PSCs).Here,three similarπ-πstacking molecules namely benzophenone(BPN),diphenyl sulfone(DPS),and diphenyl sulfoxide(DPSO)are used as back-interface modifiers in carbon-based CsPbBr_(3)PSCs.After investigation,the results demonstrate the positive effect of the p-πconjugation characteristic inπ-πstacking molecules on maximizing their passivation ability.The p-πco njugation of DPSO enables a higher coordinative activity of oxygen atom in its S=O group than that in 0=S=O group of DPS and C=O group of BPN,which gives a superior passivation effect of DPSO on defects of perovskite films.The modification of DPSO also significantly improves the p-type behavior of perovskite films and the back-interfacial energetics matching,inducing an increase of hole extraction and a decrease of energy loss.Finally,the unencapsulated carbon-based CsPbBr_(3)PSCs with DPSO achieve a maximum power conversion efficiency of 10.60%and outstanding long-term stability in high-temperature,high-humidity(85℃,85%relative humidity)air environment.This work provides insights into the influence of the structure ofπ-πstacking molecules on their ability to improve the perovskite films quality and therefore the PSCs performance.

文摘Transition-metal perovskite oxides,ABO_(3±δ),are promising alternatives to precious metal catalysts for water splitting due to their tunable structures and defect engineering potential.However,polycrystalline perovskites often show variations in composition and surface structure,complicating the identification of their underlying structure-activity relationship.In this work,we propose a surface ion-exchange strategy that finely tunes anionic and cationic defects on the surface of single-crystal BaNiO_(3),while maintaining its bulk structure and introducing surface Ni-Fe pairs.Through in situ characterization,we reveal that surface defects and Ni-Fe pairs enhance OH^(-)adsorption at both oxygen vacancies and Ni/Fe sites,facilitating a synergistic adsorbate evolution mechanism and lattice oxygen mechanism.Notably,the unique surface structure enables the faster deprotonation of intermediates and oxygen evolution reaction(OER).Thanks to the optimized surface configuration and OER mechanism,the catalyst shows excellent water oxidation performance in both rotating disk electrode and membrane electrode assembly tests.

文摘Mechano luminescence(ML),which involves the emission of light under mechanical stimuli,shows great potential in various applications such as sensing,imaging,and energy harvesting.Current research suggests that the luminescence mechanism of ML is typically connected to specific defects present within the material.In this study,we focus on the investigation of ML defects in Pr^(3+)-doped NaNbO_(3)/LiNbO_(3)heterojunctions,employing a combination of experimental and theoretical approaches.Through experimental analysis,we confirmed the presence of the heterojunction and its influence on ML intensity,and the optimal doping ratio for the heterojunction in ML was established.Furthermore,we examined the influence of varying Pr^(3+)doping concentrations on ML behavior and a proof-of-concept was demonstrated using the X-rays charged heterostructural phosphor as a stress sensor for biological applications.The position and concentration of internal defects in the ML material were scrutinized through thermo luminescence tests employing the variable heating rate method and positron annihilation.Complementing the experimental findings,theoretical simulations were conducted to elucidate the underlying mechanisms responsible for the observed ML defects.Density functional theory calculations were employed to investigate the energy levels,charge transfer processes,and lattice distortions within the heterojunctions under mechanical stress.Theoretical predictions were compared and validated against the experimental results.The integration of experimental and theoretical approaches provides a comprehensive understanding of the ML behavior of Pr^(3+)-doped NaNbO_(3)/LiNbO_(3)heterojunctions.The insights gained from this research contribute to the development of novel ML materials and pave the way for their applications in next-generation sensing and energy conversion devices.

文摘The features of optical defects in a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) synthetic type Ⅱ a diamond were characterized using photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, before and after electron irradiation. The sample was cut within a {100} growth layer, and irradiated with 2 MeV electrons along the <100> axis. PL spectra of sample were collected under 532 nm and 355 nm laser excitation, at room temperature and 77 K, and linear scanning analysis along incident depth was applied to determine the distribution of defects. The pre-irradiation characterization results revealed uniformly distributed PL centers at 389 nm, 469 nm, 533 nm, 575 nm (ZPL of NV 0), 637 nm (ZPL of NV -), and 736.7/737.1 nm (ZPL doublet of SiV -). After irradiation, the differential responses of these as-grown defects were observed, alongside the emergence of irradiation-induced defects, namely 489 nm center, H3 center (ZPL at 504 nm) and GR1 center (ZPL at 741 nm). The maximum penetration depth of 2 MeV electron-irradiation induced defects was determined to be 2.1 mm. This work primarily presents the depth profiles of both as-grown and irradiation-induced defects in 2 MeV electrons irradiated diamond. The result provides experimental data for better understanding of the radiation effect in diamonds. Serving as a reference for diamond enhancement by electron irradiation.

文摘Solution-processed Cu(In,Ga)Se_(2)(CIGS) solar cells suffer from serious carrier recombination and power conversion efficiency(PCE) loss because of the poor film properties and easy formation of defects.Herein, we propose Ag&Se co-selenization strategy to enhance the crystallization and passivate harmful defects of the CIGS films. The formation of Ag-Se phase during the selenization process enables the formation of large grains and suppresses the deep level defects. It is found that Ag doping can enlarge the depletion region width, lower the Urbach energy and prolong the carrier lifetime. As a result, a champion solution-processed CIGS solar cell presents a high efficiency of 16.48% with the highly improved opencircuit voltage(VOC) of 662 m V and fill factor(FF) of 75.8%. This work provides an efficient strategy to prepare high quality solution-processed CIGS films for high-performance CIGS solar cells.

文摘While early transition metal-based materials,such as MXene,has emerged as an efficient catalyst for the Mg-based hydrogen storage materials,their strong interaction with hydrogen resulted in the high hydrogen diffusion barrier,hindering further improvement of catalytic activity.A MXene is characterized by rich anionic groups on its surface,significantly affecting electronic and catalytic functionalities.Using Nb_(2)CT_(x)as an example,we herein illustrate the critical role of anionic T_(x)defects on controlling hydrogen dissociation and diffusion processes in Mg-based hydrogen storage materials.The hydrogen desorption properties of MgH_(2)can be significantly enhanced by utilizing T_(x)controllable Nb_(2)CT_(x),and it can release 3.57 wt.%hydrogen within 10 min under 240℃with the reduced dehydrogenation activation barrier.It also realized stable de/hydrogenation reactions for at least 50 cycles.DFT studies combined with kinetic analysis revealed that the catalyst‒hydrogen interaction could be systematically controlled by optimizing surface T_(x)defect density,accelerating the hydrogen dissociation and diffusion processes at the same time.These results demonstrate that the T_(x)defects serve as the effective catalytically active centers of Nb_(2)CT_(x),offering a flexible catalyst design guideline.

文摘Defects at the grain boundaries(GBs)of perovskite film highly restrict both the efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells(PSCs).Herein,organic small molecules of butanedioic acid(BA)and acetylenedicarboxylic acid(AA),containing two carbonyl(C=O)groups and different core-units,were incorporated into perovskite as additives for PSCs application.Thanks to the strong coordination interaction between C=O group and under-coordinated Pb^(2+),the additives can effectively passivate film defects and regulate the perovskite crystallization,yielding high-quality perovskite films with lower defect densities.More importantly,the additives can efficiently regulate the charge transport behaviors in PSCs.Benefiting from the defects passivation and the regulation of charge carrier dynamics,the BA and AA-treaded PSCs show the power conversion efficiencies of 21.52%and 20.50%,which are higher than that of the control device(19.41%).Besides,the optimal devices exhibit a remarkable enhanced long-term stability and moisture tolerance compared to the pristine devices.Furthermore,the transient absorption spectrum reveals the mechanism of enhanced photovoltaic performances,attributing to the improvement of charge transport capability at the perovskite/Spiro-OMeTAD interfaces.This work affords a promising strategy to improve the efficiency and stability of PSCs through regulating the charge-carrier dynamic process in perovskite film.
文摘Bone defects represent a significant clinical challenge with diverse etiologies,including but not limited to tumors,trauma,necrosis,and congenital deformities,imposing substantial patient suffering and socioeconomic burdens.In recent years,novel approaches for bone defect repair have been continuously explored.Biodegradable synthetic materials,particularly those capable of gradual decomposition during tissue regeneration processes,are recognized as ideal candidates for bone repair implants.Natural or synthetic polymer-based materials have been extensively employed in osteochondral repair due to their favorable biocompatibility.Furthermore,biodegradable magnesium(Mg)-based metals constitute another crucial category of bone substitutes.Mg alloys demonstrate unique advantages,including tunable degradation rates,excellent biocompatibility,appropriate mechanical strength,and remarkable osteogenic potential,positioning Mgcontaining implants as a pivotal direction in bone regenerative medicine.However,clinical applications of Mg alloys still face challenges such as rapid degradation kinetics and insufficient osteogenic performance.Further investigation into advanced application strategies for Mg alloys holds significant clinical implications for bone defect therapeutics.
