Chaotic ...In a fractal zeta universe of bifurcated, ripped spacetime, the Millikan experiment, the quantum Hall effect, atmospheric clouds and universe clouds are shown to be self-similar with mass ratio of about 1020. Chaotic one-dimensional period-doublings as iterated hyperelliptic-elliptic curves are used to explain n-dim Kepler- and Coulomb singularities. The cosmic microwave background and cosmic rays are explained as bifurcated, ripped spacetime tensile forces. First iterated binary tree cloud cycles are related to emissions 1…1000 GHz. An interaction-independent universal vacuum density allows to predict large area correlated cosmic rays in quantum Hall experiments which would generate local nuclear disintegration stars, enhanced damage of layers and enhanced air ionization. A self-similarity between conductivity plateau and atmospheric clouds is extended to correlations in atmospheric layer, global temperature and climate.展开更多

By precisely controlling A-and B-site ions and tuning the N/O ratio, new materials with exotic charge states and intriguing electronic behaviors can be designed and synthesized. In this work, a novel oxynitride perovskite, CeNbO_(2)N, was prepared under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions. The compound crystallizes in an orthorhombic perovskite structure in Pnma symmetry with disordered N/O distribution. The x-ray absorption spectroscopy confirms the presence of a Nb^(4+) state with 4d^(1) electronic configuration in CeNbO_(2)N. As a result, the resistivity of CeNbO_(2)N is sharply reduced compared to its counterpart CeTa^(5+)ON_(2) and other Nb^(5+) compounds. No long-range spin order is found to occur with the temperature down to 2 K in CeNbO_(2)N, while a remarkable negative magnetoresistance effect shows up at lower temperatures, probably due to the magnetic scattering arising from short-range spin correlations.展开更多

文摘The charge carrier transport and recombination dynamics in the quantum dots-based light-emitting diodes(QLEDs)featuring multiple emitting layers(M-EMLs)has a great impact on the device performance.In this work,QLEDs based on M-EMLs separated by polyethyleneimine ethoxylated(PEIE)layer with different stacking sequences of blue(B),green(G),and red(R)QDs layer were used to intuitively explore the injection,transportation and recombination processes of the charge carriers in QLEDs by using the time-resolved electroluminescence(TrEL)spectra.From the TrEL spectra mea-surements,green and red emissions were obtained first in the QLEDs with the EMLs sequences of G/PEIE/B/PEIE/R and B/PEIE/R/PEIE/G along the direction of light emission,respectively.While the QLEDs adopt EMLs sequences of B/PEIE/G/PEIE/R,the blue,green and red emissions were obtained nearly at the same time.The above phenomenon can be attributed to different charge carrier transmission and radiation recombination process in the EMLs due to different valence band offsets and conduction band offsets between R-,G-and B-QDs by using different sequences of EMLs.White emission with coordi-nates of(0.31,0.31)and correlated color temperature(CCT)of 5916 K was obtained in the QLEDs with the EMLs se-quences of B/PEIE/G/PEIE/R,which can be attributed to the relative uniform emission of B-,G-and R-QDs due to the effec-tive injection and radiation recombination of charge carriers in each of the EMLs.The above results have great significance for further understanding and improving the performance of QLEDs with M-EMLs.

文摘Small-sized Cd_(x) Zn_(1-x) S solid solution nanomaterial is an important candidate for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution(PHE),but it still suffers from easy agglomeration,severe photo corrosion,and fast photogenerated electron-hole recombination.To tackle these issues,herein,we propose a new strategy to modify Cd_(x) Zn_(1-x) S nanoreactors by the simultaneous utilization of ionic-liquid-assisted morphology engineering and MXene-incorporating method.That is,we designed and synthesized a novel hierarchi-cal Cd_(0.8) Zn_(0.2) S/Ti_(3) C_(2) Schottky junction composite through the in-situ deposition of ultrathin Cd_(0.8) Zn_(0.2) S nanosheets on unique IL-modified Ti_(3) C_(2) MXenes by a one-pot solvothermal method for efficiently PHE.The unique construction strategy tailors the thickness of ultrathin Cd_(0.8) Zn_(0.2) S nanosheets and prevents them from stacking and agglomeration,and especially,optimizes their charge transfer pathways during the photocatalytic process.Compared with pristine Cd_(0.8) Zn_(0.2) S nanosheets,Cd_(0.8) Zn_(0.2) S/Ti_(3) C_(2) has abun-dant photogenerated electrons available on the Ti_(3) C_(2) surface for proton reduction reaction,owing to the absence of deep-trapped electrons,suppression of electron-hole recombination in Cd_(0.8) Zn_(0.2) S and high-efficiency charge separation at the Cd_(0.8) Zn_(0.2) S/Ti_(3) C_(2) Schottky junction interface.Moreover,the hy-drophilicity,electrical conductivity,visible-light absorption capacity,and surficial hydrogen desorption of Cd_(0.8) Zn_(0.2) S/Ti_(3) C_(2) heterostructure are significantly improved.As a result,the heterostructure exhibits out-standing photocatalytic stability and super high apparent quantum efficiency,being rendered as one of the best noble-metal-free Cd-Zn-S-based photocatalysts.This work illustrates the mechanisms of mor-phology control and heterojunction construction in controlling the catalytic behavior of photocatalysts and highlights the great potential of the IL-assisted route in the synthesis of high-performance MXene-based heterostructures for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution.
文摘In a fractal zeta universe of bifurcated, ripped spacetime, the Millikan experiment, the quantum Hall effect, atmospheric clouds and universe clouds are shown to be self-similar with mass ratio of about 1020. Chaotic one-dimensional period-doublings as iterated hyperelliptic-elliptic curves are used to explain n-dim Kepler- and Coulomb singularities. The cosmic microwave background and cosmic rays are explained as bifurcated, ripped spacetime tensile forces. First iterated binary tree cloud cycles are related to emissions 1…1000 GHz. An interaction-independent universal vacuum density allows to predict large area correlated cosmic rays in quantum Hall experiments which would generate local nuclear disintegration stars, enhanced damage of layers and enhanced air ionization. A self-similarity between conductivity plateau and atmospheric clouds is extended to correlations in atmospheric layer, global temperature and climate.

文摘The interfacial characteristics of the Li metal anode(LMA)play a crucial role in its overall performance.Despite various materials being applied to modify the interface,a comprehensive understanding of their specific mechanisms remains to be investigated.Herein,we have prepared carbon cloth(CC)frameworks with their surfaces modified using ferromagnetic metal/LiF heterogeneous films(T^(M)-LiF-CC)as the substrate for LMA,which exhibit superior electrochemical performance.Utilizing ferromagnetic Co as a representative example,our study demonstrates that the enhanced performance of Co-LiF-CC,compared to bare CC,is attributed to the spinpolarized interface contributed by the Co/LiF heterostructure.Co and LiF play individual roles in redistributing electrons and Li^(+)to promote homogeneous Li deposition.Co nanoparticles play a crucial role in generating strong surface capacitance by storing electrons in spin-split bands,while LiF,with low surface diffusion barriers,ensures fast transportation of Li^(+).The Co-LiF-CC@Li electrodes deliver long lives of 7400 and 3600 h at 1 and 2 mA·cm^(-2)in symmetric cells,respectively;moreover,they enable full batteries with high and durable capacities,particularly when the N/P ratios are low(3.3 or even 1.7).

文摘Recent experimental evidence of the charge-6e condensed phase in Kagome superconductors has generated significant interest.This study investigates the unconventional superconductivity in the Kagome superconductor CsV_(3)Sb_(5),focusing on the emergence of charge-6e superconductivity(SC)at temperatures higher than the conventional charge-2e SC state.By modeling the phase coherence of the SC order parameter using a frustrated antiferromagnetic XY model on an emergent Kagome lattice,the condensation of fractional vortices with 1/3 vorticity stabilizes the phase coherence in exp(i3θ),resulting in a charge-6e SC state.Using a tensor network approach tailored for frustrated spin systems,a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition is identified at T_(c)/J≃0.075,where the unbinding of 1/3 fractional vortex-antivortex pairs transforms the system from the charge-6e SC phase to the normal phase.Below T_(c),the 1/3 fractional vortex correlations exhibit a power-law decay,whereas the integer vortex correlations decay exponentially,reflecting the dominance of charge-6e SC in the absence of charge-2e SC.The results provide a theoretical understanding of charge-6e SC in two-dimensional Kagome superconductors,emphasizing the interaction between fractional vortices,frustration,and topology in stabilizing the exotic SC phase.

文摘In this work,a series of experiments are carried out to investigate the effect of charge/discharge rates(1,2,3 and 4 C)and state of charges(SOCs,namely 0%,50%,75%and 100%)on thermal runaway(TR)and fire behavior of lithium iron phosphate(LFP)batteries.The TR process caused by overheating LFP batteries is usually divided into four stages,with high temperatures and fire risks.High-rate charge and discharge damage the internal morphology and structural stability of materials seriously.The TR behavior of battery is fully aggravated,which is further manifested by the advanced opening of the safety vent,release of gas and occurrence of TR.With the increase of charging rate,the deteriorated TR characteristics can be discerned,such as the lower TR temperature,the shorter TR time,and the more serious TR consequences.Such changes can be assigned to the decline of battery stability.In addition,the battery SOC greatly impacts safety,especially the flame temperature and the severity of consequences.As for the 100%SOC battery cycled at 4 C,there is still a high risk of thermal runaway propagation at the position 1 m far away from the battery.This work helps to realize the TR and fire features of battery in-depth,enlightening the safety protection of battery.

文摘The excited state dynamics and critically regulated factors of reverse intersystem crossing(RISC)in through-space charge transfer(TSCT)molecules have received insufficient attention.Here,five molecules of through space/bond charge transfer inducing thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)are prepared,and their excited state charge transfer processes are studied by ultrafast transient absorption and theoretical calculations.DM-Z has a largerΔEST,leading to a longer lifetime of intersystem crossing(ISC),resulting in the lowest photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY).Oppositely,ISC and RISC are demonstrated to take place with shorter lifetimes for TSCT molecules.The face-to-faceπ-πstacking interactions and electron communication enable DM-B and DM-BX to have an efficient RISC,increasing the weight coefficient of RISC from 1.7%(DM-X)to close to 50%(DM-B and DM-BX)in the solvents,which make DM-BX and DM-B to have a high PLQY.However,partial local excitation in the donor center is observed and the charge transfer is decreased for DM-G and DM-X.The triplet excited state(DM-G)or singlet excited state(DM-X)mainly undergoes inactivation through a non-radiative relaxation process,resulting in less RISC and low PLQY.This work provides theoretical hints to enhance the RISC process in the TADF materials.

文摘A coal-loaded charge induction monitoring system is developed to effectively forecast the dynamic disasters caused by coal failure.Specifically,a digital finite impulse response(FIR)filter is designed to denoise and filter the signal,and the time-frequency domain evolution of induced charge signals is analyzed during coal failure experiments.The quantitative relationships between the induced electric charge and stress-strain energy,and ultimately,between induced electric charge and coal deformation/failure,are revealed.Ultimately,the electric charge sensor exhibits high signal collection frequency and high sensitivity,and the FIR low-pass filter constructed in MATLAB effectively denoises and filters induced charge signals.The main frequency range of the white noise is 50-500 Hz,and the main frequency of the charge signal induced by coal deformation and failure is concentrated in the range of 0-50 Hz.The optimal distances for monitoring cubic and cylindrical raw coal samples using this sensor are 9 mm and 11 mm,respectively.Notably,strain energy is released faster when it can dissipate more readily,and induced charge pulses become denser when more intense signals produce large fluctuations.A method is proposed to identify coal deformation and failure based on changes in the induced electric charge.This study provides a new means of monitoring the early warning signs of dynamic coal mine disasters.Based on our experimental results and conclusions,a new method is proposed to identify coal deformation and failure based on changes in the induced electric charge.The precursor to the moment of coal failure can be identified by monitoring the amplitude of the induced charge,the dynamic trend of fluctuation,and the cumulative number of induced electric charge pulses during the process of coal deformation.

文摘Perovskite oxynitrides AB(N,O)_(3), a crucial class in materials science, have attracted much attention. By precisely controlling A-and B-site ions and tuning the N/O ratio, new materials with exotic charge states and intriguing electronic behaviors can be designed and synthesized. In this work, a novel oxynitride perovskite, CeNbO_(2)N, was prepared under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions. The compound crystallizes in an orthorhombic perovskite structure in Pnma symmetry with disordered N/O distribution. The x-ray absorption spectroscopy confirms the presence of a Nb^(4+) state with 4d^(1) electronic configuration in CeNbO_(2)N. As a result, the resistivity of CeNbO_(2)N is sharply reduced compared to its counterpart CeTa^(5+)ON_(2) and other Nb^(5+) compounds. No long-range spin order is found to occur with the temperature down to 2 K in CeNbO_(2)N, while a remarkable negative magnetoresistance effect shows up at lower temperatures, probably due to the magnetic scattering arising from short-range spin correlations.

文摘Monolayer vanadium ditelluride(VTe_(2))exhibits a 2√3×2√3 charge-density-wave(CDW)order intertwined with a Mott-insulating state.However,the physical mechanisms driving the emergence of the CDW order and the Mott-insulating state are still not well understood.In this study,we systematically investigate the electronic band structure,phonon dispersion,and electron-phonon coupling(EPC)of monolayer VTe_(2)under applied biaxial strain.Our results reveal that the 2√3×2√3 CDW phase is metastable in free-standing monolayer VTe_(2)but becomes stabilized under compressive strain below ε=-2%.The formation of the CDW order originates predominantly from strong EPC,rather than from Fermi-surface nesting.The narrowing of the bandwidth due to the CDW order,combined with correlation effects associated with the V3d orbitals,collectively drive the system into a Mott-insulating state.Furthermore,we find that tensile strain suppresses the CDW order and induces a superconducting state above a critical strain threshold(ε=2%).These findings enhance our understanding of correlation physics in monolayer VTe_(2)and provide a pathway for strain-engineered manipulation of quantum phases in two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides.
