The film of subwavelength (632nm) thickness is deposited on a silicon substrate and annealed at 400℃. The ellipsometry result shows a high refractive index above 2.5 with the minimum absorption coefficient in the visible region, which is necessary for high efficiency of transparent metasurfaces. Atomic force microscopy analysis is employed to measure the roughness of the as-deposited films. It is seen from micrographs that the deposited films are very smooth with the minimum roughness to prevent scattering and absorption losses for metasurface devices. The absence of grains and cracks can be seen by scanning electron microscope analysis, which is favorable for electron beam lithography. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy reveals the transmission and reflection obtained from the film deposited on glass substrates. The as-deposited film shows high transmission above 60%, which is in good agreement with metasurfaces.展开更多

The synthesis of nanocrystalline Li[Li1/3Ti5/3O4] by sol-gel method using inorganic compounds and citric acid is developed, and single phase powder is obtained above 700 ℃. The electrochemical performances (of Li[Li1/3Ti5/3O4]) cathodes in lithium cell are studied. Special capacities are 131 mA·h·g-1 at 0.5C rate and 154 mA·h·g-1 at 0.1C in cycle test. No passivation layer is formed on Li[Li1/3Ti5/3O4] anode in lithium ion battery, and it is much safer than lithium metal and carbonaceous anodes. Faradic impedance in the charged cell is remarkably higher than that in discharged state, which is caused by distinct conductivities of Li[Li1/3Ti5/3O4] and (Li2[Li1/3Ti5/3O4].)展开更多
