Ball scribing with spacing of 2 to 16 mm was performed at peak flux densities of 8.0 mT to 1.3 T. Magnetic shielding efficiency was calculated, including absorption, reflection and inner multi-reflection shielding efficiencies. Magnetic shielding efficiency （MSE） increase ratios after different scribing spacing were compared, and thickness requirement to achieve absorption shielding of 50 dB was also calculated. The results show that magnetic shielding efficiencies of C711 and H668 silicon steels increase by 4.79 and 3.15 dB respectively after scribing of 16 mm. Before scribing, shielding efficiency of H668 steel was higher than that of C711 steel, while after scribing, both absorption and shielding efficiency gaps were largely abridged between C711 and H668 steels. Plate thickness of C711 steel could be reduced from 3.18 mm without scribing to 2. 20 mm after scribing of 16 mm. There is no apparent thickness reduction at lower flux densities; while the peak flux density is above 0.3 T, the shielding effect becomes apparent, and the thickness could be reduced from 2.28 mm without scribing to 1.70 mm with scribing spacing of 16 ram. Magnetizing process and its effect on variation of magnetic shielding were also analyzed.展开更多

文摘To shield electronics from complicated electromagnetic environments caused by wireless electromagnetic waves,achieving elaborately structural manufacturing while not sacrificing electromagnetic interference shielding performances remains crucial challenges.Herein,we propose a hierarchical manufacturing method that combines the use of 3D printing shear flow field and layer-by-layer assembly for fabricating the structurally customizable and multifunctional polylactic acid@graphene nanoparticle(PLA@GNs)materials.The dynamic behavior of polymer fluids is firstly explored via computational fluid dynamic simulation,and a Weissenberg number is employed to quantitatively analyze the disordered-to-ordered structural evolution of molecular chains and nanoparticles,allowing to tailor the micro-scale ordered structures.Subsequently,the macro-scale 3D architectures of PLA@GNs modules are fabricated by layer-by-layer assembly.Owing to the aligned GNs,the shielding performance reaches 41.2 d B,simultaneously accompanied by a directional thermal conductivity of 3.2 W m^(-1)K^(-1).Moreover,the potential application of 3D-printed shielding modules in specific civilian frequency bands such as 4G(1800–2100 MHz),Bluetooth(2402–2480 MHz),and 5G(3300–3800 MHz)is fully demonstrated.Overall,this work not only establishes a universal methodology about 3D printing shear flow field-driven orientation of two-dimensional nanoparticles within polymer fluids,but also gives a scientific method for advanced manufacturing of the next-generation electromagnetic functional modules for smart electronics.

文摘Biochar and biochar composites are versatile materials that can be used in many applications.In this study,biochar was prepared from sawdust and combined with the yttrium iron garnet(YIG)nanocrystal to investigate the shielding effectiveness of the composite structure.Firstly,the effect of the pyrolysis temperature on the shielding effectiveness of biochar was investigated.Secondly,biochars combined with YIG nanocrystals with different contents and shielding effectiveness of the composites were investigated.The electromagnetic effectiveness of the samples was investigated within the X band(8-12 GHz).The findings indicate that biochar demonstrates enhanced absorption properties with elevated pyrolysis temperatures.Biochars demonstrated an approximate 40 d B shielding effectiveness,while YIG exhibited approximately 7 d B,corresponding to absorption at 8 GHz.However,the combination of biochar and YIG exhibited exceptional absorption,reaching 67.12 d B at 8 GHz.

文摘Developing advanced cathode modification strategies to address the inherent high charge density of Al^(3+) is essential for achieving high-energy-density and long-cycle-life rechargeable aluminum batteries(RABs).Herein,we engineer tetraethylammonium(TEA)cation intercalation as a dual-function strategy that concurrently enables interlayer distance enlargement and electrostatic shielding effects,resolving Al^(3+) polarization-induced sluggish kinetics and cathode degradation in RABs.TEA intercalation triggers exceptional V2O5 interlayer expansion from 4.37 to 13.10Å,while the modulated charge distribution generates an electrostatic shielding effect that significantly weakens the Coulombic interactions between Al^(3+) and V2O5 frameworks.This dual mechanism collectively enhances ion diffusion kinetics and suppresses lattice stress accumulation.Ex situ X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy analyses confirm that the“molecular pillar effect”of TEA enables minimal and highly reversible structural deformation of the cathode(<2.0%volume change after 200 cycles),demonstrating zero-strain aluminum-storage behavior.The optimized cathode delivers a high reversible capacity of 258 mAh g^(−1) at 0.5 A g^(−1),maintains 99%capacity retention at 5.0 A g^(−1),and exhibits an ultralow capacity decay rate of 0.01%per cycle over 6000 cycles.This work opens new pathways for designing stable high-performance RAB cathodes through synergistic modulation of electronic and lattice structures.

文摘Aqueous zinc-ion batteries(AZIBs)are facing challenges of severe parasitic side reactions and uncontrolled Zn dendrite growth in promoting commercial applications.Here,rare earth metal neodymium ions(Nd^(3+))have been introduced into the conventional Zn SO_4 electrolyte as an electrolyte additive to improve the stability and reversibility of AZIBs.Combining experimental characterization and theoretical calculations,Nd^(3+)ions are adsorbed at the active sites of zinc crystal growth,forming a positively charged shielding layer on the Zn anode surface that effectively prevents lateral reactions and induces uniform Zn deposition.Meanwhile,Nd^(3+)ions preferentially adsorb on(100)and(101)planes of Zn,thus facilitating preferential deposition on the(002)plane and achieving a dendrite-free Zn anode.Consequently,a Zn//Zn symmetric cell with the Nd^(3+)-modified electrolyte exhibits an ultralong lifespan of 3000 h at0.5 m A cm^(-2),and a Zn//Cu asymmetric cell realizes an impressive Coulombic efficiency of 99.47%for Zn stripping and plating over 550 cycles at 1.0 mA cm^(-2).Impressively,Zn//CNT@MnO_(2) full cell reaches a considerably stable long cycle performance over 2500 cycles at 1.0 A g^(-1).This work offers an effective solution to the challenges faced by Zn anode and expands the application scope of metallic ions in metalbased energy storage devices.

文摘Bio-based 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid polyesters offer significant promise for reducing energy and environmental crises.However,their intrinsic flammability remains a critical limitation,and conventional flame-retardant strategies often compromise their mechanical properties,hindering their practical applications.Herein,a 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide(DOPO)-based comonomer(DDP)was used to synthesize flame-retardant poly(ethylene furandicarboxylate-co-phosphaphenanthrene)(PEFDn).The covalent integration of DDP confers intrinsic flame retardancy,avoiding the plasticization and migration issues associated with additive-type systems.Upon thermal decomposition,the DOPO-derived moieties release phosphoric acid and radical scavengers,promoting char formation and suppressing flame propagation.Furthermore,density functional theory(DFT)calculations combined with non-covalent interaction(NCI)analysis revealed that DOPO dimer molecules adopt a stable parallel-displaced π-π stacking configu ration,potentially facilitating microphase separation and enhancing the energy dissipation capability.PEFD_(10)achieves a UL-94 V-0 rating while simultaneously increasing impact toughness from 1.5 kJ/m^(2) to 14.7 kJ/m^(2).Im portantly,PEFDn maintained acceptable oxygen-barrier properties.PEFD10 also exhibited high transparency and UV-shielding performance.The combination of intrinsic flame safety,im pact-toughness resistance,UV shielding,and an oxygen barrier ensures reliable protection of electrical components and long-term operational stability.The integration of multiple critical properties within a single bio-based material represents a novel approach fo r enabling sustainable polymer solutions for high-pe rformance electrical applications.

文摘Cross-band camouflage technology is a critical necessity,enabling personnel and equipment to evade detection across evolving surveillance systems,thereby enhancing survivability and mission success.Herein,this work develops a layer-structured composite system based on carbon nanotube(CNT)film comprising ionic liquid(IL)interlayer for infrared(IR)modulation and surface-engineered Cu_(2)O nanoparticles for visible camouflage.The CNT/IL/CNT architecture enables reversible IR emissivity switching(Δε≈0.55)through electrically driven ion intercalation/deintercalation within 2 s,while spray-coated Cu_(2)O nanoparticles(100~400 nm diameter)on the top CNT film layer generate rich structure colors with 90%IR transmittance.This spectral-decoupling design overcomes the traditional trade-off between color visibility and IR transmittance observed in pigment-based systems.Remarkably,due to physical interface coupling,the Cu_(2)O-coated layer-structured system maintains exceptional electrical conductivity,enabling simultaneous electromagnetic interference shielding and electrothermal energy conversion.The integrated system demonstrates long-term operational stability.By unifying visible-IR camouflage,electromagnetic protection,and energy management in a lightweight platform,this work provides an important paradigm for cross-band camouflage technologies.

文摘Achieving the spin-exchange relaxation-free(SERF)state in atomic comagnetometers(ACMs)necessitates a stable and weak magnetic environment.This paper presents the design of a miniaturized permalloy magnetic shielding spherical shell(MSSS)with minimal apertures,tailored to meet these requirements.By employing a combination of analytical solutions and finite element analysis(FEA),we achieved superior magnetic shielding while maintaining a compact form factor.The analytical solution for the shielding factor indicated that a four-layer permalloy sphere shell with optimized air gaps was necessary.A numerical analysis model of the MSSS was developed and validated using COMSOL software,confirming the suitability of the air gaps.The size,shape,and orientation of the openings in the perforated sphere shell were meticulously designed and optimized to minimize residual magnetism.The optimal structure was fabricated,resulting in triaxial shielding factors of 47619,52631,and 21739,meeting the anticipated requirements.A comparison of simulation results with experimental tests demonstrated the efficacy of the design methodology.This study has significant implications for ultrasensitive magnetic field detection devices requiring weak magnetic field environments,such as atomic gyroscopes,magnetometers,atomic interferometers,and atomic clocks.

文摘Robust, ultra-flexible, and multifunctional MXene-basedelectromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding nanocomposite filmsexhibit enormous potential for applications in artificial intelligence,wireless telecommunication, and portable/wearable electronic equipment.In this work, a nacre-inspired multifunctional heterocyclic aramid(HA)/MXene@polypyrrole (PPy) (HMP) nanocomposite paper withlarge-scale, high strength, super toughness, and excellent tolerance tocomplex conditions is fabricated through the strategy of HA/MXenehydrogel template-assisted in-situ assembly of PPy. Benefiting from the"brick-and-mortar" layered structure and the strong hydrogen-bondinginteractions among MXene, HA, and PPy, the paper exhibits remarkable mechanical performances, including high tensile strength (309.7 MPa),outstanding toughness (57.6 MJ m−3), exceptional foldability, and structural stability against ultrasonication. By using the template effect ofHA/MXene to guide the assembly of conductive polymers, the synthesized paper obtains excellent electronic conductivity. More importantly,the highly continuous conductive path enables the nanocomposite paper to achieve a splendid EMI shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) of 54.1 dBat an ultra-thin thickness (25.4 μm) and a high specific EMI SE of 17,204.7 dB cm2g−1. In addition, the papers also have excellent applicationsin electromagnetic protection, electro-/photothermal de-icing, thermal therapy, and fire safety. These findings broaden the ideas for developinghigh-performance and multifunctional MXene-based films with enormous application potential in EMI shielding and thermal management.

文摘Electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding materials with superior shielding efficiency and low-reflection properties hold promising potential for utilization across electronic components,precision instruments,and fifth-generation communication equipment.In this study,multistage microcellular waterborne polyurethane(WPU)composites were constructed via gradient induction,layer-by-layer casting,and supercritical carbon dioxide foaming.The gradient-structured WPU/ironcobalt loaded reduced graphene oxide(FeCo@rGO)foam serves as an impedance-matched absorption layer,while the highly conductive WPU/silver loaded glass microspheres(Ag@GM)layer is employed as a reflection layer.Thanks to the incorporation of an asymmetric structure,as well as the introduction of gradient and porous configurations,the composite foam demonstrates excellent conductivity,outstanding EMI SE(74.9 dB),and minimal reflection characteristics(35.28%)in 8.2-12.4 GHz,implying that more than 99.99999%of electromagnetic(EM)waves were blocked and only 35.28%were reflected to the external environment.Interestingly,the reflectivity of the composite foam is reduced to 0.41%at 10.88 GHz due to the resonance for incident and reflected EM waves.Beyond that,the composite foam is characterized by low density(0.47 g/cm^(3))and great stability of EMI shielding properties.This work offers a viable approach for craft-ing lightweight,highly shielding,and minimally reflective EMI shielding composites.
文摘High-performance MXene-based polymer nanocomposites are well-suited for various industrial applications owing to their excellent mechanical,thermal,and other properties.However,the fabrication of flame-retardant polymer/MXene nanocom-posites remains challenging owing to the limited flame-retardant properties of MXene itself.This study prepared a novel MXene@Ag@PA hybrid material via radiation modification and complexation reaction.This material was used to further enhance the key properties of ethylene-vinyl acetate(EVA),such as its mechanical properties,thermal conductivity,flame retardancy,and electromagnetic shielding.The addition of two parts of this hybrid material increased the thermal conduc-tivity of EVA by 44.2%and reduced its peak exothermic rate during combustion by 30.1%compared with pure EVA.The material also significantly reduced smoke production and increased the residue content.In the X-band,the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of the EVA composites reached 20 dB.Moreover,the MXene@Ag@PA hybrid material could be used to further enhance the mechanical properties of EVA composites under electron-beam irradiation.Thus,this study contributes to the development of MXene-based EVA advanced materials that are fire-safe,have high strength,and exhibit good electromagnetic shielding performance for various applications.

文摘Magnetic shielding of grain-oriented silicon steel was investigated. Ball scribing with spacing of 2 to 16 mm was performed at peak flux densities of 8.0 mT to 1.3 T. Magnetic shielding efficiency was calculated, including absorption, reflection and inner multi-reflection shielding efficiencies. Magnetic shielding efficiency （MSE） increase ratios after different scribing spacing were compared, and thickness requirement to achieve absorption shielding of 50 dB was also calculated. The results show that magnetic shielding efficiencies of C711 and H668 silicon steels increase by 4.79 and 3.15 dB respectively after scribing of 16 mm. Before scribing, shielding efficiency of H668 steel was higher than that of C711 steel, while after scribing, both absorption and shielding efficiency gaps were largely abridged between C711 and H668 steels. Plate thickness of C711 steel could be reduced from 3.18 mm without scribing to 2. 20 mm after scribing of 16 mm. There is no apparent thickness reduction at lower flux densities; while the peak flux density is above 0.3 T, the shielding effect becomes apparent, and the thickness could be reduced from 2.28 mm without scribing to 1.70 mm with scribing spacing of 16 ram. Magnetizing process and its effect on variation of magnetic shielding were also analyzed.

文摘The performances of magnesium alloys remain insufficient to further enhance the application potential of ultralight magnesium alloys.In this work,a Mg-8Li-3Y-2Zn alloy was prepared through vacuum melting and subsequent heat treatment at 300,450,and 500°C.The material properties of the resulting samples were assessed through microstructural observation,tensile testing,electrical conductivity measurements,and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness(EMI-SE)testing.The influence of the Mg-8Li-3Y-2Zn alloy microstructure on its mechanical and electromagnetic shielding properties in different states was investigated.It was found that the as-cast alloy containsα-Mg,β-Li,Mg_(3)Zn_(3)Y_(2),and Mg_(12)ZnY phases.Following heat treatment at 500℃(HT500),the blockα-Mg phase transformedfine needle-shapes,its tensile strength increased to 263.7 MPa,and its elongation reached 45.3%.The mechanical properties of the alloy were significantly improved by the synergistic effects imparted by the needle-shapedα-Mg phase,solid solution strengthening,and precipitation strengthening.The addition of Y and Zn improved the EMI-SE of Mg-8Li-1Zn alloy,wherein the HT500 sample exhibits the highest SE,maintaining a value of 106.7–76.9 dB in the frequency range of 30–4500 MHz;this performance has rarely been reported for electromagnetically shielded alloys.This effect was mainly attributed to the multiple reflections of electromagnetic waves caused by the severe impedance mismatch of the abundant phase boundaries,which were in turn provided by the dual-phase(α/β)and secondary phases.Furthermore,the presence of nano-precipitation was also believed to enhance the absorption of electromagnetic waves.

文摘In the present work,by virtue of the synergistic and independent effects of Janus structure,an asymmetric nickel-chain/multiwall carbon nanotube/polyimide(Ni/MWCNTs/PI)composite foam with absorption-dominated electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding and thermal insulation performances was successfully fabricated through an ordered casting and directional freeze-drying strategy.Water-soluble polyamic acid(PAA)was chosen to match the oriented freeze-drying method to acquire oriented pores,and the thermal imidization process from PAA to PI exactly eliminated the interface of the multilayered structure.By controlling the electro-magnetic gradient and propagation path of the incident microwaves in the MWCNT/PI and Ni/PI layers,the PI composite foam exhibited an efficient EMI SE of 55.8 dB in the X-band with extremely low reflection characteristics(R=0.22).The asymmetric conductive net-work also greatly preserved the thermal insulation properties of PI.The thermal conductivity(TC)of the Ni/MWCNT/PI composite foam was as low as 0.032 W/(m K).In addition,owing to the elimination of MWCNT/PI and Ni/PI interfaces during the thermal imidization process,the composite foam showed satisfactory compressive strength.The fabricated PI composite foam could provide reliable electromagnetic protection in complex applications and withstand high temperatures,which has great potential in cuttingedge applications such as advanced aircraft.

文摘The seismic data of the Laoshan Uplift in the South Yellow Sea Basin reveal a low signal-tonoise ratio and low refl ection signal energy in the deep Mesozoic–Paleozoic strata.The main reason is that the Mesozoic-Paleozoic marine carbonate rock strata are directly covered by the Cenozoic terrestrial clastic rock strata,which form a strong shielding layer.To obtain the reflection signals of the strata below the strong shielding layer,a one-way wave equation bidirectional illumination analysis of the main observation system parameters was conducted by analyzing the mechanism of the strong shielding layer.Low-frequency seismic sources are assumed to have a high illumination intensity on the reflection layer below the strong shielding layer.Accordingly,optimized acquisition parameter suggestions were proposed,and reacquisition was performed at the existing survey line locations in the Laoshan Uplift area.The imaging of the newly acquired data in the middle and deep layers was drastically improved.It revealed the unconformity between the Sinian and Cambrian under the strong shielding layer.The study yielded new insights into the tectonic and sedimentary evolution of the Lower Paleozoic in the South Yellow Sea.
