文摘Rydberg-atom-based superheterodyne receivers integrate self-calibration,high sensitivity,a wide operational frequency range,and phase/frequency resolved detection capabilities,demonstrating broad application prospects as nextgeneration microwave receivers.Linear gain and linear dynamic range(LDR)are critical metrics for assessing receiver sensitivity and demodulation fidelity,respectively.We numerically solve the four-level master equation and then employ particle swarm optimization(PSO)algorithm to co-optimize linear gain and LDR in atomic superheterodyne receivers based on balanced homodyne detection.Further,we systematically account for dominant dephasing mechanisms in the simulation,encompassing spontaneous decay,transit dephasing,collision dephasing,laser linewidth dephasing,and Doppler averaging.Homodyne readout utilizes both the real and imaginary parts of polarizability for sensing.In the case of the photon shot noise limit,its signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)expression resembles that of direct optical-intensity readout.However,the inherent coherent subtraction operation in homodyne detection significantly suppresses common-mode noise,while appropriately increasing the reference beam power enhances the gain in practical experiments.Indeed,this co-optimization problem,characterized by a high-dimensional variable space,two objectives,and non-convexity,is well-suited for solution by PSO.In addition,probe and coupling detuning contribute equivalently to polarizability and compensate for each other owing to Doppler averaging,thereby reducing the optimization variable space by one.By adopting a product form of linear gain and LDR as the fitness function,the PSO achieves rapid convergence.Here,the effectiveness of the PSO results is verified via the total harmonic distortion(THD).The relative error-based LDR calculation method we proposed efficiently measures receiver response linearity with consuming fewer computational resources.This research is expected to offer valuable insights into enhancing the performance of Rydberg-atom-based superheterodyne receivers.

文摘Oxide semiconductors(OSs),introduced by the Hosono group in the early 2000s,have evolved from display backplane materials to promising candidates for advanced memory and logic devices.The exceptionally low leakage current of OSs and compatibility with three-dimensional(3D)architectures have recently sparked renewed interest in their use in semiconductor applications.This review begins by exploring the unique material properties of OSs,which fundamentally originate from their distinct electronic band structure.Subsequently,we focus on atomic layer deposition(ALD),a core technique for growing excellent OS films,covering both basic and advanced processes compatible with 3D scaling.The basic surface reaction mechanisms—adsorption and reaction—and their roles in film growth are introduced.Furthermore,material design strategies,such as cation selection,crystallinity control,anion doping,and heterostructure engineering,are discussed.We also highlight challenges in memory applications,including contact resistance,hydrogen instability,and lack of p-type materials,and discuss the feasibility of ALD-grown OSs as potential solutions.Lastly,we provide an outlook on the role of ALD-grown OSs in memory technologies.This review bridges material fundamentals and device-level requirements,offering a comprehensive perspective on the potential of ALD-driven OSs for next-generation semiconductor memory devices.

文摘Atomic layer deposition(ALD)is extensively used to fabricate doped dielectrics due to its ability to deposit conformal films with atomic-scale thickness control.Al-doped TiO_(2)(ATO)is a promising high-k dielectric for dynamic random access memory(DRAM)applications,offering a high dielectric constant with a remarkable leakage-lowering effect by Al acceptor doping.However,ATO fabrication via conventional supercycle-based ALD suffers from severe crystallinity loss during the growth of TiO_(2) upon Al doping owing to the dopant-induced lattice disorder.In addition,Al doping cannot reduce any inherent O vacancies(V_(O))of TiO_(2),although the original purpose of doping was to address the n-type nature caused by V_(O).To resolve these limitations,we propose a single-step,in-situ Ar/O_(2) post-doping plasma(PDP)process immediately after the Al dopant incorporation.Using the PDP process,simultaneous atomic-scale dopant migration-mediated crystallization and V_(O) annihilation were successfully initiated.Thus,the surface concentration of the dopant decreased,reducing the dopant-induced lattice distortion,while promoting the highly crystallized seed layer-like surface.Consequently,strong rutile-phase recovery was accompanied by enhanced lattice-matched growth.In addition,the PDP process significantly lowers the V_(O)-to-lattice oxygen ratio by facilitating the recombination between reactive O species and V_(O),increasing the corresponding 0.4 e V of conduction band offset(CBO).Despite the common trade-off between the dielectric constant and leakage,the Pt/PDP-ATO/Ru capacitor exhibited a simultaneous 30%increase in dielectric constant and up to a 1.6-order reduction in leakage current density.

文摘Chlorinated antibiotics pose great challenges in efficient removal,while for the first time,this work greatly enhanced their electrocatalytic dechlorination performance by construction of non-noble metal Co_(3)O_(4)/g-C_(3)N_(4) heterojunctions to improve process cost-effectiveness.The Co_(3)O_(4)/g-C_(3)N_(4) heterojunction demonstrated an effective removal of 93.6%thiamphenicol(TAP)within 45 min,with the rate constant(0.0584 min^(-1))that was 2.4 and 2.8 times that of Co_(3)O_(4) and g-C_(3)N_(4) alone,respectively.The formation of heterojunctions facilitated electron transfer,enriched the electron density on Co_(3)O_(4),and enhanced the adsorption of pollutants as well as the desorption of degradation intermediates.The enhanced production of atomic hydrogen(H*)of Co_(3)O_(4)/g-C_(3)N_(4),which increased by 13.6-28.2 times,contributed more to pollutant removal(64.0%),much higher than that of Co_(3)O_(4)(37.3%)and g-C_(3)N_(4)(6.1%).The energy barrier for H_(2) formation on Co_(3)O_(4)/g-C_(3)N_(4)(0.75 eV)was higher than that on Co_(3)O_(4)(-1.84 eV),supporting that it could stabilize H*and inhibit the formation of H_(2).The Co_(3)O_(4)/g-C_(3)N_(4) heterojunction exhibited stable performance with less impact by pH and co-existing ions,and posed effectiveness for the dechlorination of typical chlorinated antibiotics.This study offers an efficient and sustainable strategy for constructing heterojunctions to enhance the performance of non-noble metal catalysts in electrocatalytic dechlorination.

文摘The T_(1)(Al_(2) CuLi)phase is one of the most effective strengthening nanoscale-precipitate in Al-Cu alloys with Li.However,its formation and evolution still need to be further clarified during aging due to the complex precipitation sequences.Here,a detailed investigation has been carried out on the atomic struc-tural evolution of T_(1) precipitate in an aged Al-Cu-Li-Mg-Ag alloy using state-of-the-art Cs-corrected high-angle annular dark field(HAADF)-coupled with integrated differential phase contrast(iDPC)-scanning transmission electron microscopy(STEM)and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDXS)techniques.An intermediate T_(1)’phase between T_(1p) and T_(1) phase,with a crystal structure and orientation rela-tionship consistent with T_(1),but exhibiting different atomic occupancy and chemical composition was found.We observed the atomic structural transformation from T_(1p) to T_(1)’phase(fcc→hcp),involving only 1/12<112>Al shear component.DFT calculation results validated our proposed structural models and the precipitation sequence.Besides,the distributions of minor solute elements(Ag,Mg,and Zn)in the pre-cipitates exhibited significant differences.These findings may contribute to a further understanding of the nucleation mechanism of T_(1) precipitate.

文摘Metal-based catalysts are prevalent in the CO_(2) hydrogenation to methanol owing to their remarkable catalytic activity.Herein,Ru/In_(2)O_(3) catalysts with different morphologies obtained by doping Ru into In_(2)O_(3) with irregular,rod-like,and flower-like morphologies are used for catalytic CO_(2) hydrogenation to methanol.Results indicate that the flower-like Ru/In_(2)O_(3)(Ru/In_(2)O_(3)-F)exhibits higher catalytic performance than Ru/In_(2)O_(3) with other morphologies,achieving a 12.9%CO_(2) conversion,74.02%methanol selectivity,and 671.36 mg_(MeOH) h^(−1) g_(cat)^(−1) methanol spatiotemporal yield.Furthermore,Ru/In_(2)O_(3)-F maintains its catalytic stability over 200 h at 5 MPa and 290℃.The promotional effect mainly stems from the fact that electronic structure of Ru can be effectively adjusted by modulating the morphology of In_(2)O_(3).The strong interaction between atomically dispersed Ru and In_(2)O_(3)-F enhances the structural stability of Ru,inhibiting the agglomeration of the catalyst during the reaction process.Furthermore,density-functional theory calculations reveal that highly dispersed Ru atoms not only perform efficient and rapid electronic gain and loss processes,facilitating the catalytic activation of H_(2) into H intermediates.It also enables the generated reactive H to rapidly overflow to the surrounding In sites to participate in CO_(2) reduction.These findings provide a theoretical basis for the development of high-performance catalysts for CO_(2) hydrogenation.

文摘Atomic surfaces are strictly required by high-performance devices of diamond.Nevertheless,diamond is the hardest material in nature,leading to the low material removal rate(MRR)and high surface roughness during machining.Noxious slurries are widely used in conventional chemical mechanical polishing(CMP),resulting in the possible pollution to the environment.Moreover,the traditional slurries normally contain more than four ingredients,causing difficulties to control the process and quality of CMP.To solve these challenges,a novel green CMP for single crystal diamond was developed,consisting of only hydrogen peroxide,diamond abrasive and Prussian blue(PB)/titania catalyst.After CMP,atomic surface is achieved with surface roughness Sa of 0.079 nm,and the MRR is 1168 nm·h^(-1).Thickness of damaged layer is merely 0.66 nm confirmed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM).X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,electron paramagnetic resonance and TEM reveal that·OH radicals form under ultraviolet irradiation on PB/titania catalyst.The·OH radicals oxidize diamond,transforming it from monocrystalline to amorphous atomic structure,generating a soft amorphous layer.This contributes the high MRR and formation of atomic surface on diamond.The developed novel green CMP offers new insights to achieve atomic surface of diamond for potential use in their high-performance devices.

文摘The variation of the inner electronic cloud of a two-electron system when the outer elec-tron is moving far away or coming close is investigated in this paper mainly by analyzingthe shape-density. The geometric character and features of internal motion of the ~1S^e heliumstates having different K--numbers have been shown, the mechanism for energy transfer andthe details of radial-radial correlation have been inspected. The motion of the inner electroniccloud as a whole is found to be strongly correlated with the motion of the outer electron.
文摘Broadband transparent films play a pivotal role in various applications such as lenses and solar cells,particularly porous structured transparent films exhibit significant potential.This study investigates a porous SiO_(2) refractive index gradient anti-reflective film prepared by atomic layer deposition(ALD).A porous SiO_(2) film with gradual porosity was obtained by phosphoric acid etching of Al_(2)O_(3)/SiO_(2) multilayers with gradient Al2O3 ratios,achieving a gradual decrease in refractive index from the substrate to the surface.The film exhibited an average transmittance as high as 97.8%within the wavelength range from 320 nm to 1200 nm.The environmental adaptability was further enhanced by surface modification using rare earth oxide(REO)La_(2)O_(3),resulting in formation of a lotus leaf-like structure and achieving a water contact angle of 100.0°.These data proved that the modification significantly improved hydrophobic self-cleaning capability while maintaining exceptional transparency of the film.The surface structure of the modified film remained undamaged even after undergoing wipe testing,demonstrating its excellent surface durability.

文摘Polymeric perylene diimide(PDI)has been evidenced as a good candidate for photocatalytic water oxidation,yet the origin of the photocatalytic oxygen evolution activity remains unclear and needs further exploration.Herein,with crystal and atomic structures of the self-assembled PDI revealed from the X-ray diffraction pattern,the electronic structure is theoretically illustrated by the first-principles density functional theory calculations,suggesting the suitable band structure and the direct electronic transition for efficient photocatalytic oxygen evolution over PDI.It is confirmed that the carbonyl O atoms on the conjugation structure serve as the active sites for oxygen evolution reaction by the crystal orbital Hamiltonian group analysis.The calculations of reaction free energy changes indicate that the oxygen evolution reaction should follow the reaction pathway of H_(2)O→^(*)OH→^(*)O→^(*)OOH→^(*)O_(2)with an overpotential of 0.81 V.Through an in-depth theoretical computational analysis in the atomic and electronic structures,the origin of photocatalytic oxygen evolution activity for PDI is well illustrated,which would help the rational design and modification of polymeric photocatalysts for efficient oxygen evolution.

文摘The powerful light field manipulation capability of metasurfaces offers a novel development perspective for the quantum precision measurement.By applying the phasegradient metasurface(PGM)to atomic magnetometers(AMs),we have proposed and experimentally demonstrated a new type of compact single-beam elliptically polarized atomic magnetometers(EPAMs).Employing the fabricated chiral beam splitter PGM with high cross-polarization transmittance,a new atomic spin chirality detection method was devised,enabling the ultra-high sensitivity for extremely weak magnetic field measurement and achieving a high sensitivity of 2.67 pT/Hz^(1/2)under an external magnetic field of approximately 10,000 nT.The new AMs combine the pumping and probing polarized light,achieving a compact design.The fabricated PGM has a size of only 3 mm×3 mm×0.7 mm,which is beneficial for the miniaturization and integration of AMs.This work effectively expands the application of metasurfaces in the field of quantum precision measurement,and also provides a new viewpoint for the design and development of high-sensitivity and miniaturized AMs.
