But interfacing components, such as ferritic stainless steel and YSZ electrolyte, may vary in their requirements regarding sealing properties, especially in terms of thermal expansion. A bilayered glass-ceramic system was developed to overcome the mismatch in coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) between ferritic steel and YSZ. Therefore, two different glass-ceramics with slightly different CTEs were developed, one with good bonding characteristics to the ferritic steel and the other to the YSZ electrolyte. Steel and electrolyte components were coated with a layer of their corresponding glass sealant paste and heated up to form a sandwich sample. During the heat treatment of the sealing process, the glasses are crystallized into glass-ceramics. The resulting interface between the two glass-ceramics is of special interest. Cross-sections of the sandwich samples were cut, polished and investigated using SEM. The glass-ceramics show continuous, gap-free layers and excellent bonding to both steel and YSZ. Energy release rates are measured for single and bilayered glass sealants by mechanical testing. The designed bilayered glass-ceramics fulfill the special requirements of ferritic steel and YSZ. They show excellent potential to become a new outstanding sealant for SOFCs.展开更多

The results show that hydrogenation can significantly reduce the energy gap of the BN–BN into the visible-light region. Interestingly, the electric field induced by the interface dipoles helps to promote the formation of well-separated electron–hole pairs, as demonstrated by the charge distribution of the VBM and CBM.Moreover, the applied bias voltage on the vertical direction of the bilayer could modulate the band gap, resulting in transition from semiconductor to metal. We conclude that H–BNBN–H could improve the solar energy conversion efficiency, which may provide a new way for tuning the electronic devices to meet different environments and demands.展开更多

文摘Sr2Bi4Ti5O18(SBTi) single layered and Sr2Bi4Ti5O18 /Pb(Zr0.53Ti0.47)O3(SBTi/PZT) bilayered thin films have been prepared on Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates by pulsed-laser deposition(PLD).The related structural characterizations and electrical properties have been comparatively investigated.X-ray diffraction reveals that both films have crystallized into perovskite phases and scanning electron microscopy shows the sharp interfaces.Both films show well-saturated ferroelectric hysteresis loops,however,compared with the single layered SBTi films,the SBTi/PZT bilayered films have significantly increased remnant polarization(Pr) and decreased coercive field(Ec),with the applied field of 260 kV/cm.The measured Pr and Ec of SBTi and SBTi/PZT films were 7.9 C/cm 2,88.1 kV/cm and 13.0 C/cm 2,51.2 kV/cm,respectively.In addition,both films showed good fatigue-free characteristics,the switchable polarization decreased by 9% and 11% of the initial values after 2.2 10 9 switching cycles for the SBTi single layered films and the SBTi/PZT bilayered films,respectively.Our results may provide some guidelines for further optimization of multilayered ferroelectric thin films.

文摘This article examines the influence of annealing temperature on fracture toughness and forming limit curves of dissimilar aluminum/silver sheets.In the cold roll bonding process,after brushing and acid washing,the prepared surfaces are placed on top of each other and by rolling with reduction more than 50%,the bonding between layers is established.In this research,the roll bonding process was done at room temperature,without the use of lubricants and with a 70%thickness reduction.Then,the final thickness of the Ag/Al bilayer sheet reached 350μm by several stages of cold rolling.Before cold rolling,it should be noted that to decrease the hardness created due to plastic deformation,the roll-bonded samples were subjected to annealing heat treatment at 400℃for 90 min.Thus,the final samples were annealed at 200,300 and 400℃for 90 min and cooled in a furnace to examine the annealing temperature effects.The uniaxial tensile and microhardness tests measured mechanical properties.Also,to investigate the fracture mechanism,the fractography of the cross-section was examined by scanning electron microscope(SEM).To evaluate the formability of Ag/Al bilayer sheets,forming limit curves were obtained experimentally through the Nakazima test.The resistance of composites to failure due to cracking was also investigated by fracture toughness.The results showed that annealing increases the elongation and formability of the Ag/Al bilayer sheet while reduces the ultimate tensile strength and fracture toughness.However,the changing trend is not the same at different temperatures,and according to the results,the most significant effect is obtained at 300℃and aluminum layers.It was also determined that by increasing annealing temperature,the fracture mechanism from shear ductile with small and shallow dimples becomes ductile with deep cavities.

文摘Sugars are widely recognized for their ability to stabilize cell membranes during dehydration.However,the precise mechanisms by which sugars interact with lipid bilayers remain unclear.This mini-review synthesizes four key hypotheses explaining sugar-mediated protection of dehydrated bilayers:the Water Replacement Hypothesis(WRH),Hydration Force Hypothesis(HFH),Headgroup Bridging Hypothesis(HBH),and Vitrification Hypothesis(VH).We argue that these mechanisms are not mutually exclusive but instead operate synergistically under different cellular contexts.We propose that these hypotheses are not mutually exclusive but likely operate under different cellular contexts.Future studies should prioritize the development of biologically realistic membrane models-incorporating diverse lipids,proteins,and asymmetric leaflets-to elucidate the exact roles and mechanisms of sugars in membrane stabilization.Such advancements will enhance our understanding of anhydrobiosis and inform cryopreservation strategies for mammalian cells.

文摘Osteochondral defects pose an enormous challenge,and no satisfactory therapy is available to date due to the hierarchy of the native tissue consisting of articular cartilage and subchondral bone.Constructing a scaffold with biological function and biomimetic structure is the key to achieving a high-quality repair effect.Herein,a natural polymer-based bilayer scaffold with a porous architecture similar to that of osteochondral tissue is designed,involving the transforming growth factor-beta3-liposome-loaded upper layer for superficial cartilage regeneration and the nanohydroxyapatite-coated lower layer for subchondral bone rehabilitation.This research is conducted to evaluate the effects of nanoparticle-modified bilayer scaffold to mimic the hierarchical pro-chondrogenic and proosteogenic microenvironment for the recruited endogenous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.The fabricated composites were evaluated for mechanical,physicochemical,biological properties,in vitro and in vivo tissue regeneration potential.Overall,the current bilayer scaffold could regenerate a cartilage-bone integrated tissue with a seamless interfacial integration and exhibited superior tissue repair outcomes compared to other single layer scaffolds based on morphological,radiological and histological evaluation,verifying that this novel graft could be an effective approach to tissue-engineered analogs of cartilage-subchondral bone and offer new therapeutic opportunities for osteochondral defect-associated diseases.

文摘The current work addresses the challenge of elucidating the performance of fluoroelastomers within the HMX(octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine)based polymer-bonded explosives(PBXs).To simulate the confined interface in PBXs,bilayer films of F2314/HMX and F2311/HMX were designed.Neutron reflectivity(NR),nanoindentation,and X-ray reflectivity(XRR)were employed to examine the layer thickness,interface characteristics,diffusion behavior,and surface morphology of the bilayers.NR measurements revealed interface thicknesses of 45Å and 98Å for F2314/HMX and F2311/HMX,respectively,indicating deeper penetration of F2311 into the HMX matrix.NR also suggested a denser polymer network with a higher scattering length density(SLD)near the HMX interface for both fluoroelastomers,while the bound layer of F2311 was notably thicker.Nanoindentation cross-checks and confirms the presence of a bound layer,highlighting the differences in stiffness and diffusion ability between the two polymers.The consistency between the NR and nanoindentation results suggests that F2311 demonstrates better flexibility and elasticity,whereas F2314 is stiffer and more plastic.Accordingly,the structures and performances of different fluoroelastomers at the HMX interface are discussed,which can provide valuable insights into the selection of binders for PBX formulations tailored to specific applications.

文摘This study demonstrates the successful fabrication of solid-state bilayers using LiFePO_(4)(LFP)cathodes and Li_(1.3)Al_(0.3)Ti_(1.7)(PO_(4))_(3)(LATP)-based Composite Solid Electrolytes(CSEs)via Cold Sintering Process(CSP).By optimizing the sintering pressure,it is achieved an intimate contact between the cathode and the solid electrolyte,leading to an enhanced electrochemical performance.Bilayers cold sintered at 300 MPa and a low-sintering temperature of 150℃exhibit high ionic conductivities(0.5 mS cm^(-1))and stable specific capacities at room temperature(160.1 mAh g^(-1)LFP at C/10 and 75.8 mAh g^(-1)_(LFP)at 1 C).Moreover,an operando electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)technique is employed to identify limiting factors of the bilayer kinetics and to anticipate the overall electrochemical behavior.Results suggest that capacity fading can occur in samples prepared with high sintering pressures due to a volume reduction in the LFP crystalline cell.This work demonstrates the potential of CSP to produce straightforward high-performance bilayers and introduces a valuable non-destructive instrument for understanding and avoiding degradation in solid-state lithium-based batteries.

文摘The semiconductor gas sensors used for xylene gas detection in real time has been restricted by the inadequate sensitivity and selectivity.Constructing a bilayer cascade sensor with the catalysis-gas sensitivity synergistic is considered as an effective solution.Herein,the Ag@CeO_(2)nanosheets are synthesized by heat treating the Ag@Ce-MOF,which synthesized via solvothermal method.The morphological evolution of cerium metalorganic framework(Ce-MOF),regulated by Ag ions,is investigated,and the transformation mechanism is proposed.The bilayer sensors were constructed by using WO_(3)nanofibers,prepared via the electrospinning method,as the sensitive layer and the Ag@CeO_(2)nanosheets as the catalytic layer,respectively.The bilayer sensors exhibit remarkable performance in response to xylene.The response value(R_(a)/R_(g))of WO_(3)/Ag@CeO_(2)sensor to10 ppm xylene gas reaches 32.13 at the operating temperature of 160℃.Additionally,the sensor displays an exceptional response to even trace amounts of xylene,as low as parts per billion(ppb).The catalysis-gas sensitivity synergistic mechanism was elucidated by capturing catalytic intermediates using online mass spectrometry.These findings provide a novel strategy for benzene series(BTEX)sensor and offer a novel approach to prepare twodimensional Ce-MOF and its derived materials with tailored properties.

文摘We investigate the energy bands,magnetism,and superconductivity of bilayer octagraphene with A-A stackingunder a perpendicular electric field.A tight-binding model is used to analyze the band structure of the system.The doubling of the unit cell results in each band of the single layer splitting into two.We find that applyinga perpendicular electric field increases the band splitting.As the electric field strength increases,the nestingof the Fermi surface(FS)weakens,eventually disrupting the antiferromagnetic order,and bilayer octagrapheneexhibits superconductivity.Spin fluctuations can induce unconventional superconductivity with s±-wave pairing.Applying a perpendicular electric field to bilayer octagraphene parent weakens the nesting of the FS,ultimatelykilling the spin-density-wave(SDW)ordered state and transitioning it into the superconducting state,whichworks as a doping effect.We use the random-phase approximation approach to obtain the pairing eigenvaluesand pairing symmetries of the perpendicular electric field-tuned bilayer octagraphene in the weak coupling limit.By tuning the strength of the perpendicular electric field,the critical interaction strength for SDW order can bemodified,which in turn may promote the emergence of unconventional superconductivity.

文摘Applying a perpendicular electric field to bilayer graphene(BLG)induces an electrically tunable bandgap,so that insulating states with resistances exceeding~10^(8)Ωcan be generated.These high-resistance states pinch off the conducting channel,thereby enabling high-quality gated devices for classical and quantum electronics.However,it is challenging to precisely quantify these states electrically due to their high resistances,especially when different areas of the device are operated in different high-resistance states.Here,taking advantage of the strong acoustoelectric effect,we demonstrate the detection of these high-resistance states in a multi-gated BLG device using surface acoustic waves.Under different gating configurations,the device is operated in different high-resistance states.Although these states have similar resistances of~10^(8)Ω,we show their acoustoelectric responses exhibit pronounced differences,thereby allowing the acoustic detection.More interestingly,we demonstrate that when the conducting channel is pinched off by one top gate,we are still able to acoustically,but not electrically,detect the gating effect of another top gate.Our results reveal the powerful capability and the promising future of acoustically characterizing BLG and other two-dimensional materials,especially their electronic states with high resistances.

文摘Precise modulation of the active layer morphology to optimize exciton dissociation and charge collection efficiency is the research priority in organic solar cells(OSCs).In this work,two novel additives,TFFB as well as TCFB,are proposed and doped into acceptor using layer-by-layer deposition method to realize high-performance bilayer OSCs based on D18-Cl/Y6 system.The asymmetric additive TFFB was introduced to improve molecular polarity,facilitate molecular stacking and promote film crystallization.Compared to the control devices without additive-treated,power conversion efficiency(PCE)of D18-Cl/Y6(TFFB)OSCs was increased from 18.04%to 18.85%.Furthermore,TCFB with trichloromethyl instead of trifluoromethyl caused large quadrupole moment,which further enhanced the intermolecular interactions and induced the components distribution to form a better three-dimensional morphology structure.Corresponding D18-Cl/Y6(TCFB)devices achieved an excellent PCE of 19.15%,one of the highest PCE reported for binary OSCs to date.In addition,TCFB-treated devices exhibited favorable storage stability,remaining over 95%of the original efficiency after 2500 hours of placement.This study presents a simple and valid method that utilizing the role of quadrupole moment to optimize the hierarchical morphology and improve the charge dynamics process,finally realizing highly efficient and stable OSCs.

文摘The discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in bilayer nickelate La_(3)Ni_(2)O_(7)under high-pressure conditions has spurred extensive efforts to stabilize superconductivity at ambient pressure.Recently,the realization of superconductivity in compressively strained La_(3)Ni_(2)O_(7)thin films grown on the SrLaAlO_(4)substrates,with a T_(c)exceeding 40 K,represents a significant step toward this goal.Here,we investigate the influence of film thickness and carrier doping on the electronic structure of La_(3)Ni_(2)O_(7)thin films,ranging from 0.5 to 3 unit cells,using first-principles calculations.For a 2 unit-cell film with an optimal doping concentration of 0.3 hole per formula unit(0.15 hole/Ni),the Ni-d_(z^(2))interlayer bonding state crosses the Fermi level,resulting in the formation ofγpockets at the Fermi surface.These findings align with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy experimental data.Our results provide theoretical validation for the recent experimental discovery of ambient-pressure superconductivity in La_(3)Ni_(2)O_(7)thin films and underscore the significant impact of film thickness and carrier doping on electronic property modulation.

文摘Although multifunctional electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding materials with ultrahigh electromagnetic wave absorption are highly required to solve increasingly serious electromagnetic radiation and pollution and meet multi-scenario applications,EMI shielding materials usually cause a lot of reflection and have a single function.To realize the broadband absorption-dominated EMI shielding via absorption-reflection-reabsorption mechanisms and the interference cancelation effect,multifunctional asymmetric bilayer aerogels are designed by sequential printing of a MXene-graphene oxide(MG)layer with a MG emulsion ink and a conductive MXene layer with a MXene ink and subsequent freeze-drying for generating and solidifying numerous pores in the aerogels.The top MG layer of the asymmetric bilayer aerogel optimizes impedance matching and achieves re-absorption,while the bottom MXene layer enhances the reflection of the incident electromagnetic waves.As a result,the asymmetric bilayer aerogel achieves an average absorption coefficient of 0.95 in the X-band and shows the tunable absorption ability to electromagnetic wave in the ultrawide band from 8.2 to 40 GHz.Finite element simulations substantiate the effectiveness of the asymmetric bilayer aerogel for electromagnetic wave absorption.The multifunctional bilayer aerogels exhibit hydrophobicity,thermal insulation and Joule heating capacities and are efficient in solar-thermal/electric heating,infrared stealth,and clean-up of spilled oil.
