文摘CrN coatings are also employed to protect structural materials in nuclear power plants.It should be noted that the preparation process utilizing physical vapor deposition(PVD)techniques inevitably entails certain defects.Such a phenomenon will affect the protective properties of CrN coatings.In this study,low-energy laser shock peening(LE-LSP)with varying energies was employed for the post-treatment of CrN coatings.The effects of different laser energy LE-LSP treatments on the surface morphology,crystal structure and fretting wear properties of CrN coatings were investigated.The results revealed that the surface of the CrN coatings subjected to LE-LSP underwent significant plastic deformation and displayed a regular texture structure.The surface roughness and Vickers hardness of the CrN coatings exhibit a significant increase.Under a laser energy of 150 mJ,the surface hardness exhibits a maximum increase of 2.35 times.The residual stress of CrN coatings diminishes with the augmentation of laser energy due to the formation of surface cracks.Following LE-LSP treatment,the columnar crystal structure of the CrN coating was disrupted and fragmented into fine grains due to the impact force.As the laser energy augments,the fragmented CrN grains undergo further compaction.During fretting wear,all specimens were in the gross slip regime.The wear mechanism of the CrN coating,120 and 150 mJ specimens are primarily dominated by abrasive wear,and accompanied by oxidative wear.For specimens treated with 30,60 and 90 mJ,the predominant wear mechanisms are mainly peeling and abrasive wear,and accompanied by oxidative wear.Both the wear area and wear volume initially increase and then decrease as the laser energy increases.The 150 mJ specimen exhibited the smallest wear area and wear volume of all tested specimens.The wear volume was reduced by 76.32%when compared to that of the CrN coating.This study complements the existing research on PVD/LSP composite strengthening techniques.Introduces a novel post-treatment methodology for PVD coatings.Provides certain theoretical support for subsequent PVD/LSP composite strengthening.

文摘The discovery of Piezo channels has advanced the understanding of mechanobiology,which acts as mechanosensitive cation channels in sensing mechanical stimuli and regulating various physiological functions.Despite the electrophysiological current recording,localized Piezo activation measurement in cells still faces challenges.In this study,we developed a Piezo1-Ca^(2+)biosensor based on Förster Resonance Energy Transfer(FRET)technology by fusing a calcium-sensing module closely to the channel pores,hence to dynamically detect Piezo1 activation.The biosensor expressed in 293T cells showed~120%FRET change to the specific chemical agonist Yoda1,whose response to Piezo1 activation was evaluated with its key-point mutation(L1342G/L1345G).By comparing cytoplasmic and Lyn-tagged membrane calcium biosensors,Piezo1-Ca^(2+)FRET biosensor primarily reflects localized calcium signals near the plasma membrane.Furthermore,by combining Piezo1-Ca^(2+)FRET imaging with varying microfluidic shear conditions,the biosensor exhibited significant yet transient responses to shear stress(~70%FRET change at 2.8 dyn/cm^(2)),with a threshold of effective activation around 1.0 dyn/cm^(2)(i.e.,10μN/cm^(2)).In conclusion,the developed Piezo1-Ca^(2+)FRET biosensor demonstrated Piezo1 activation by chemical agonist and shear force,which provides an imaging tool with improved spatiotemporal resolution for elucidating the mechanosensitivity of Piezo1 channels.The local specificity for Piezo1-Ca^(2+)signal detection by the biosensor requires individual interpretations under different scenarios.

文摘The fretting wear behavior of 0Cr20Ni32AlTi alloy was investigated with crossed cylinder contact under 80 N at 300 and 400 °C.Wear scar and debris were analyzed systematically by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.The results show that the friction logs are mixed fretting regime and gross slip regime with the magnitudes of displacement of 10 and 20 μm,respectively.Severe wear and friction oxidation occur on the material surface.A large number of granular debris produced in the fretting process can be easily congregated and adhered at the contact zone after repeated crushes.The resultant of friction oxidation is mainly composed of Fe3O4,Fe2O3,Cr2O3 and NiO.Temperature and friction are the major factors affecting the oxidation reaction rate.The fretting friction effect can enhance the oxidation reaction activity of surface atoms of 0Cr20Ni32AlTi alloy and reduce the oxidation activation energy.As result,the oxidation reaction rate is accelerated.
