The films were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and nanoindentation. The results show that the TiN−Ni layer grows epitaxially on the VN layer, forming a coherent interface between the two sublayers. When the deposition time ratio of the two sublayers (TTiN−Ni꞉TVN) is 10꞉12, the films exhibit remarkable mechanical properties, with hardness, elastic modulus, and fracture toughness values of 25.9 GPa, 317 GPa, and 1.88 MPa·m^(1/2), respectively. Meanwhile, fracture toughness is improved by approximately 50% compared to the VN monolithic film. This enhancement is attributed to the coherent interface between the sublayers and the phase separation in the TiN−Ni layer.展开更多

文摘BiMeO_(3)–PbTiO_(3)(where Me represents transition metals)perovskite-type thin films have been widely studied due to their superior ferroelectric properties,including robust ferroelectric polarization and high Curie temperatures.In this study,PbTiO_(3)-based perovskite thin films of xBi(Cu_(1/2)Zr_(1/2))O_(3)–(1-x)PbTiO_(3)(xBCZ–(1-x)PT)were designed and prepared on Pt(111)/Ti/SiO_2/Si substrates using the conventional sol–gel method.The x BCZ–(1-x)PT thin films demonstrate remarkable crystallinity,characterized by a perovskite structure and a dense microstructure,which contribute to their highperformance ferroelectric and fatigue properties.Notably,the thin films exhibit large remnant polarization(2P_(r0))values,reaching 98μC·cm^(-2)and 74μC·cm^(-2)for the 0.05BCZ–0.95PT and 0.1BCZ–0.9PT compositions,respectively.Furthermore,the thin films also demonstrate a high Curie temperature(T_(C)=510℃),as well as favorable fatigue properties and low leakage current,suggesting their potential applicability in ferroelectric devices.

文摘Tin-lead(Sn-Pb)halide perovskite single crystals combine narrow bandgaps,long carrier diffusion lengths,and low trap densities,positioning them as ideal candidates for near-infrared(NIR)optoelectronics.However,conventional growth strategies rely on bulk crystallization at elevated temperatures,leading to uncontrolled nucleation,Sn^(2+)oxidation,and poor compatibility with planar integration.Here,we develop a coordination-engineered crystallization strategy that enables direct,lowtemperature growth of micrometer-thick Sn-Pb single-crystal thin films on device-compatible substrates.By modulating metal-solvent coordination strength using a low-donor number cosolvent system,we delineate a narrow processing window that stabilizes precursor speciation,lowers the nucleation barrier,and guides directional crystal growth under mild thermal conditions(<40℃).The resulting crystal films exhibit smooth morphology,high crystallinity,compositional uniformity,and ultralow trap densities(~3.98×10^(12)cm^(-3)).When integrated into NIR photodetectors,these films deliver high responsivity(0.51 A W^(-1)at 900 nm),specific detectivity up to 3.6×10^(12)Jones,fast response(~188μs),and>25,000 cycles of ambient operational stability.This approach establishes a scalable platform for redox-stable,low-temperature growth of Sn-Pb perovskite crystal films and expands the processing-structure-function landscape for next-generation infrared optoelectronics.

文摘Although multicrystalline Si photovoltaics have been extensively studied and applied in the collection of solar energy,the same systems suffer significant efficiency losses in indoor settings,where ambient light conditions are considerably smaller in intensity and possess greater components of non-normal incidence.Yet,indoor light-driven,stand-alone devices can offer sustainable advances in next-generation technologies such as the Internet of Things.Here,we present a non-invasive solution to aid in photovoltaic indoor light collection—radially distributed waveguide-encoded lattice(RDWEL)slim films(thickness 1.5 mm).Embedded with a monotonical radial array of cylindrical waveguides(±20°),the RDWEL demonstrates seamless light collection(FoV(fields of view)=74.5°)and imparts enhancements in JSC(short circuit current density)of 44%and 14%for indoor and outdoor lighting conditions,respectively,when coupled to a photovoltaic device and compared to an unstructured but otherwise identical slim film coating.

文摘Chiral magnets have attracted considerable attention due to their intricate magnetic properties,among which B20compounds constitute a quintessential class that has gained significant focus,particularly in the study of skyrmions.MnGe,as a member of the B20 family,exhibits a more complex magnetic structure compared with other materials with similar crystal structures.In this work,we successfully synthesized high-quality MnGe thin films and characterized their magnetoresistance,M-H curves,magneto-Seebeck effect,and magnetic force microscopy(MFM)images,all of which demonstrate pronounced magnetic anisotropy.Notably,the Seebeck coefficient exhibits a plateau at low magnetic fields when the magnetic field is applied in the film plane,indicating a field region in which the magnetic structure remains stable.MFM imaging further reveals magnetic transitions within the MnGe films when the magnetic field is oriented along the film plane.These findings are crucial for advancing our understanding of the magnetic ground state of MnGe and the evolution of its magnetic structure under an applied external magnetic field.

文摘Corn starch(CS)is a renewable,biodegradable polysaccharide valued for its film-forming ability,yet native CS films exhibit lowmechanical strength,highwater sensitivity,and limited thermal stability.This study improves CS-based films by blending with poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA)or glycerol(GLY)and using citric acid(CA)as a green,non-toxic cross-linker.Composite films were prepared by casting CS–PVA or CS-GLY with CA at 0%-0.20%(w/w of starch).The influence of CA on physicochemical,mechanical,optical,thermal,and water barrier properties was evaluated.CA crosslinking markedly enhanced the tensile strength,water resistance,and thermal stability of CS-PVA films while increasing transparency in CS–GLY films.At 0.20%CA,the composite achieved 34.99MPa tensile strength,reducedwater vapor permeability,andminimized water uptake.FTIR confirmed ester bond formation between CAand hydroxyl groups of CS,PVA,and GLY,whereas thermal analysis showed higher decomposition temperatures and lower weight loss in crosslinked films.Increasing CA levels also decreased opacity and improved light transmittance,indicating greater homogeneity and reduced crystallinity.This dual-polymer matrix combined with a natural crosslinking strategy provides a sustainable route to high-performance,biodegradable CS-based packaging materials.

文摘Although poly(lactic acid)(PLA)is a good environmentally-friendly bio-degradable polymer which is used to substitute traditional petrochemical-based polymer packaging films,the barrier properties of PLA films are still insufficient for high-barrier packaging applications.In this study,oxygen scavenger hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene(HTPB)and cobalt salt catalyst were incorporated into the PLA/poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)(PLA/PBAT),followed by melting extrusion and three-layer co-extrusion blown film process to prepare the composite films.The oxygen permeability coefficient of the composite film combined with 6 wt%oxygen scavenger and 0.4 wt%catalyst was decreased significantly from 377.00 cc·mil·m^(-2)·day^(-1)·0.1 MPa^(-1) to 0.98 cc·mil·m^(-2)·day^(-1)·0.1 MPa^(-1),showing a remarkable enhancement of 384.69 times compared with the PLA/PBAT composite film.Meanwhile,the degradation behavior of the composite film was also accelerated,exhibiting a mass loss of nearly 60%of the original mass after seven days of degradation in an alkaline environment,whereas PLA/PBAT composite film only showed a mass loss of 32%.This work has successfully prepared PLA/PBAT composite films with simultaneously improved oxygen barrier property and degradation behavior,which has great potential for high-demanding green chemistry packaging industries,including food,agricultural,and military packaging.

文摘Pure Mg boasting a relatively small corrosion rate is a potential biodegradable metal material for implants.However,its degradation behavior in the complex physiological environment is still a lack of understanding.In this work,we investigated the effect of corrosion product film layers on the degradation behavior of pure Mg in physiological environments.Pure Mg shows a faster corrosion rate in simulated body fluid(SBF)compared to NaCl solution.Hydrogen evolution experiments indicate that the degradation rate of pure Mg in SBF decreases rapidly within the first 12 h but stabilizes afterward.The rapid deposition of low-solubility calcium phosphate on the pure Mg in SBF provides protection to the substrate,resulting in a gradual decrease in the degradation rates.Consequently,the corrosion product film of pure Mg formed in SBF exhibits a layered structure,with the upper layer consisting of dense Ca_(3)(PO_(4))_(2)/Mg_(3)(PO_(4))_(2) and the lower layer consisting of Mg(OH)_(2)/MgO.Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)shows that the resistance of the corrosion product film increases over time,indicating gradual strengthening of the corrosion resistance.The 4-week degradation results in the femoral marrow cavity of mice are consistent with the result in SBF in vitro.

文摘Morphology and growth rate of carbon dioxide hydrate on the interface between liquid carbon dioxide and humic acid solutions were studied in this work.It was found that after the growth of the hydrate film at the interface,further growth of hydrate due to the suction of water in the capillary system formed between the wall of the cuvette and the end boundary of the hydrate layer occurs.Most probably,substantial effects on the formation of this capillary system may be caused by variations in reactor wall properties,for example,hydrophobic-hydrophilic balance,roughness,etc.We found,that the rate of CO_(2) hydrate film growth on the surface of the humic acid aqueous solution is 4-fold to lower in comparison with the growth rate on the surface of pure water.We suppose that this is caused by the adsorption of humic acid associates on the surface of hydrate particles and,as a consequence,by the deceleration of the diffusion of dissolved carbon dioxide to the growing hydrate particle.

文摘Tetravalent tin(Sn^(4+))-based inorganic perovskite semiconductors like Cs_(2)SnI_(6)are expected to replace lead-based perovskite counterparts due to advantages such as structural stability and environmental friendliness.In this paper,we reported the dopant compensation effect in the component-dependent self-doped(111)-oriented Cs_(2)SnI_(6)thin films grown with pulsed laser deposition(PLD)at room temperature.The films were grown on(100)-SrTiO_(3)(STO)substrates at room temperature by PLD.Hall results of the Cs_(2)SnI_(6)films with different components realizing by controlling the ratio of SnI_(4)/CsI in the targets demonstrate a clear change of conductivity type from N-type to P-type,while the carrier concentration decreases from 1018 to 1013 and accordingly the film resistivity increases significantly from 3.8 to 2506Ωcm.The defect-relatedopticalfingerprints of Cs_(2)SnI_(6)films werealsoinvestigated withtemperature-dependent photoluminescence spectroscopy.At low temperatures of 10 K,the Cs_(2)SnI_(6)films exhibit donor-bound(D^(0)X)and donor-acceptor pair(DAP)emission,respectively,due to the self-doping effect.These re-sults indicate that controlling the composition of the PLD target is a powerful way to tune the electrical properties of Cs_(2)SnI_(6)films for possible applications in solar cells or X-ray detectors.

文摘Because of their low electrical conductivity,sluggish ion diffusion,and poor stability,conventional electrode materials are not able to meet the growing demands of energy storage and portable devices.Graphene assembled films(GAFs)formed from graphene nanosheets have an ultrahigh conductivity,a unique 2D network structure,and exceptional mechanical strength,which give them the potential to solve these problems.However,a systematic understanding of GAFs as an advanced electrode material is lacking.This review focuses on the use of GAFs in electrochemistry,providing a comprehensive analysis of their synthesis methods,surface/structural characteristics,and physical properties,and thus understand their structure-property relationships.Their advantages in batteries,supercapacitors,and electrochemical sensors are systematically evaluated,with an emphasis on their excellent electrical conductivity,ion transport kinetics,and interfacial stability.The existing problems in these devices,such as chemical inertness and mechanical brittleness,are discussed and potential solutions are proposed,including defect engineering and hybrid structures.This review should deepen our mechanistic understanding of the use of GAFs in electrochemical systems and provide actionable strategies for developing stable,high-performance electrode materials.

文摘ZrCoRE(RE denotes rare earth elements)non-evaporable getter films have significant applications in vacuum packaging of micro-electro mechanical system devices because of their excellent gas adsorption performance,low activation temperature and environmental friendliness.The films were deposited using DC magnetron sputtering with argon and krypton gases under various deposition pressures.The effects of sputtering gas type and pressure on the morphology and hydrogen adsorption performance of ZrCoRE films were investigated.Results show that the films prepared in Ar exhibit a relatively dense structure with fewer grain boundaries.The increase in Ar pressure results in more grain boundaries and gap structures in the films.In contrast,films deposited in Kr display a higher density of grain boundaries and cluster structures,and the films have an obvious columnar crystal structure,with numerous interfaces and gaps distributed between the columnar structures,providing more paths for gas diffusion.As Kr pressure increases,the film demonstrates more pronounced continuous columnar structure growth,accompanied by deeper and wider grain boundaries.This structural configuration provides a larger specific surface area,which significantly improves the hydrogen adsorption speed and capacity.Consequently,high Ar and Kr pressures are beneficial to improve the adsorption performance.
文摘High-quality antiferromagnetic(AFM)θ-phase manganese nitride(MnN)films were successfully grown on MgO(001)substrates by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy.Structural analysis confirms the high-quality MnN film has a tetragonal distortion with a c/a ratio of~0.98.The film exhibits exceptional stability in both aqueous and ambient conditions,which is a crucial factor for practical applications.Electrical transport reveals its metallic behavior with an upturn at low temperatures,which could be attributed to the Kondo effect originated from nitrogen vacancy-induced magnetic impurities.Room temperature exchange bias has been demonstrated in a MnN/CoFeB heterostructure,verifying the AFM ordering of MnN.Considering its high Néel temperature~650 K,superior stability,and low-cost,this work highlights the epitaxial MnN films as a promising candidate for AFM spintronic applications.

文摘Impact of texture type on the magnetic properties of ultrahigh density perpendicular magnetic recording media L1_(0)-FePt thin film was investigated,so were the texture formation and evolution mechanism.Reuss,Voigt,and Hill models were used to determine the anisotropic elastic modulus of L1_(0)-FePt thin film with fiber texture.Then,the elastic strain energies of thin films under various stress conditions were calculated.Results reveal that the stress condition has a significant influence on the fiber texture evolution.When the L1_(0)-FePt thin film is subjected to compressive in-plane strain prior to ordering phase transformation,the formation of{100}fiber texture is promoted.On the contrary,the ordering phase transformation under tensile in-plane strain promotes the{001}fiber texture formation.

文摘Ferroelectric materials are widely applied in the ferroelectronic devices,photovoltaics,and so on.Ultrathin ferroelectric thin films are highly desired for their applications,which still remain a challenge.In this work,the ultrathin barium titanate(BaTiO_(3),BTO)films are deposited directly on the fluorine-doped tin oxide glass(SnO_(2):F,FTO)substrates by radio frequency magnetron sputtering method at different temperatures.All BTO ultrathin films exhibit strong ferroelectric properties.Interestingly,BTO thin films deposited at room temperature(RT)also exhibit robust ferroelectricity.The polar domains are switched reversibly with a phase degree of~180°by piezoelectric force microscopy for the BTO thin films deposited at room temperature,attributing to the strain and ion migration.
