In this regard, the electronic structure of materials can be effectively regulated through defect engineering; therefore, the correlation between defects/vacancies and the properties of a material has attracted extensive attention. Here, we report the synthesis of Bi2S3 microspheres by nanorod assemblies with exposed {211} facets, and the investigation of the types and concentrations of defects/vacancies by means of positron annihilation spectrometry. Our studies revealed that an increase in the calcined temperature, from 350 to 400 ℃, led the predominant defect/vacancy densities to change from isolated bismuth vacancies （VBi） to septuple Bi3＋-sulfur vacancy associates （VBiBiBiSSSS）. Furthermore, the concentration of septuple BiB＋-sulfur vacancy associates increased as the calcined temperature was increased from 400 to 450 ℃. The characterized transient photocurrent spectrum demonstrates that the photocurrent values closely correlate with the types and concentrations of the predominant defects/vacancies. Our theoretical computation, through first principles, showed that VBiBiBiSSSS strongly absorbs I2（sol）, easily desorbs I-（sol）, and enhances the electrocatalytic activity of the nanostructures.展开更多

Herein, we report a facile solvothermal route to synthesize three-dimensional （3D） SnS nanostructures formed by {131} faceted nanosheet assembly. The 3D SnS nanostructures were calcined at temperatures of 350, 400, and 450 ~C and used as counter electrodes, before their photocurrent properties were investigated. First principle computation revealed the photocurrent properties depend on the defect/vacancy concentration within the samples. It is very interesting that characterization with positron annihilation spectrometry confirmed that the density of defects/vacancies increased with the calcination temperature, and a maximum photocurrent was realized after treatment at 400 ℃. Further, the defect/vacancy density decreased when the calcination temperature reached 450℃ as the higher calcination temperature enlarged the mesopores and densified the pore walls, which led to a lower photocurrent value at 450℃ than at 400℃.展开更多

Through electrochemical testing and material characterizations, higher calcination temperatures increase the electrostatic repulsion between oxygen atoms in adjacent layers, resulting in an expansion of Na layer spacing. This structural change enhances the diffusion kinetics of Na^(+), thereby significantly improving the rate performance of NCFM. Furthermore, elevated calcination temperatures facilitate the reduction of oxygen vacancies, leading to improved crystallinity. This enhancement in crystallinity mitigates structural strain during phase transitions, contributing to improved cyclic stability. Consequently, the optimized NCFM shows an initial discharge specific capacity of 143.3 mA·h/g at 0.1C, with a capacity retention rate of 79.28% after 100 cycles at 1C.展开更多

For this purpose, we employ the Green's function technique within the nearest neighbor tight-binding approach. We first convert the Hamiltonian of an ideal semiinfinite nanoribbon to the Hamiltonian of some independent polyacetylene-like chains. Then, we derive an exact formula for the self-energy of the perturbed part due to the existence of ideal parts. The method gives a fully analytical formalism for some cases such as an infinite ideal nanoribbon and the one including linear symmetric defects. We calculate the transmission coefficient for some different configurations of a nanoribbon with special width including a vacancy, edge geometrical defects, and two electrical impurities.展开更多

Doppler-broadening line shape parameter S was measured as a function of thickness and differnt annealing conditions. Results reveal there could be more than one mechanism to induce vacancy-like defects. It was found that strain-induced defects mainly influence the S value of the in situ oxygenambience annealing LSMO thin films and the strain could vanish still faster along with the increase of thickness, and the oxygen-deficient induced defects mainly affect the S value of post-annealing LSMO films.展开更多

文摘Magnesium(Mg)and its alloys,known for their low density and high specific strength,are increasingly explored as lightweight structural materials across a broad range of industrial applications.However,their widespread application remains constrained by intrinsic mechanical limitations,fundamentally rooted in the nature of crystallographic defects.Atomic-scale modeling techniques are transforming our ability to unravel the structures,energetics,and dynamics of these defects and to explore their complex interactions,thereby guiding defect engineering in Mg alloys.However,the growing body of available data can make it difficult for researchers to identify critical knowledge gaps and promising areas for further exploration.To address this challenge,we highlight key research domains with significant potential for impactful advancements,aiming to illuminate these areas while inspiring innovative approaches and encouraging deeper exploration of pivotal topics that may shape the future of Mg alloy development.This review presents a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art in atomic-scale modeling of defects in Mg and its alloys.We introduce key simulation methodologies,including density functional theory and atomistic simulations,and highlight their applications to defect distribution,defect dynamics,and defect-defect interactions.By bridging fundamental insights in defects with alloy design strategies,this review aims to support and inspire the broader Mg research community and to underscore the growing impact of atomic-scale modeling in the accelerated development of high-performance Mg alloys.

文摘NaCu_(0.2)Fe_(0.3)Mn_(0.5)O_(2) (NCFM) cathode material was synthesized using a simple solid-state reaction, and the effect of calcination temperature on its interlayer spacing and oxygen vacancies concentration was investigated. Through electrochemical testing and material characterizations, higher calcination temperatures increase the electrostatic repulsion between oxygen atoms in adjacent layers, resulting in an expansion of Na layer spacing. This structural change enhances the diffusion kinetics of Na^(+), thereby significantly improving the rate performance of NCFM. Furthermore, elevated calcination temperatures facilitate the reduction of oxygen vacancies, leading to improved crystallinity. This enhancement in crystallinity mitigates structural strain during phase transitions, contributing to improved cyclic stability. Consequently, the optimized NCFM shows an initial discharge specific capacity of 143.3 mA·h/g at 0.1C, with a capacity retention rate of 79.28% after 100 cycles at 1C.

文摘With the rapid development of transportation infrastructure,ensuring road safety through timely and accurate highway inspection has become increasingly critical.Traditional manual inspection methods are not only time-consuming and labor-intensive,but they also struggle to provide consistent,high-precision detection and realtime monitoring of pavement surface defects.To overcome these limitations,we propose an Automatic Recognition of PavementDefect(ARPD)algorithm,which leverages unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)-based aerial imagery to automate the inspection process.The ARPD framework incorporates a backbone network based on the Selective State Space Model(S3M),which is designed to capture long-range temporal dependencies.This enables effective modeling of dynamic correlations among redundant and often repetitive structures commonly found in road imagery.Furthermore,a neck structure based on Semantics and Detail Infusion(SDI)is introduced to guide cross-scale feature fusion.The SDI module enhances the integration of low-level spatial details with high-level semantic cues,thereby improving feature expressiveness and defect localization accuracy.Experimental evaluations demonstrate that theARPDalgorithm achieves a mean average precision(mAP)of 86.1%on a custom-labeled pavement defect dataset,outperforming the state-of-the-art YOLOv11 segmentation model.The algorithm also maintains strong generalization ability on public datasets.These results confirm that ARPD is well-suited for diverse real-world applications in intelligent,large-scale highway defect monitoring and maintenance planning.

文摘Nuclear reactor coolant pumps require frequent maintenance to ensure operational safety.One critical aspect of this maintenance is verifying the integrity of the mechanical sealing system.Due to the lack of an evaluation criteria and an incomplete understanding of how end-face defects lead to failure,defective mechanical seals are often replaced empirically,which not only contributes to economic losses but also poses risks to reactor safety.To reveal the mechanism by which surface defects affect sealing performance,this study proposes a classification method for end-face defects based on the analysis of approximately one hundred used mechanical seals.A defect characterization model was established by extracting key features of the observed defects.The influence of these defects on sealing performance was analyzed using a liquid-thermal-solid coupling model.Changes in sealing gap,leakage rates,and film stiffness with respect to defect size,location,and other characteristics are discussed.This work contributes to a deeper understanding of defect failure mechanisms.These results can serve as a reference for evaluating defective seals.

文摘Due to their chiral structure,carbon nanosprings possess unique properties that are promising for nanotechnology applications.The structural transformations of carbon nanosprings in the form of spiral macromolecules derived from planar coronene and kekulene molecules(graphene helicoids and spiral nanoribbons)are analyzed using molecular dynamics simulations.The interatomic interactions are described by a force field including valence bonds,bond angles,torsional and dihedral angles,as well as van derWaals interactions.While the tension/compression of such nanosprings has been analyzed in the literature,this study investigates other modes of deformation,including bending and twisting.Depending on the geometric characteristics of the carbon nanosprings,the formation of structural and helix reversal topological defects is described.During these structural transformations of the nanosprings,only van der Waals bonds break and recover,but breaking or recovery of covalent bonds does not take place.It is found that nanosprings demonstrate a significantly higher coefficient of axial thermal expansion than many metals and alloys.Under axial compression,Euler instability leads to lateral bending with continuous deformation of the nanospring axis at relatively low compression,while at high compression,bending kinks form.Various types of topological defects form on the instantly released nanospring during its relaxation from a highly stretched configuration.These results are useful for the development of nanosensors operating over a wide temperature range.

文摘4-Nitrophenol(4-NP),a toxic and persistent pollutant in chemical wastewater,presents significant challenges in degradation and mineralization.Conventional ozone oxidation catalysts are hindered by low efficiency,mass transfer constraints and metal leaching,necessitating the development of stable and efficient catalysts.Herein,BCn-H/MS,the derivative of Bi(Ce)-MOF,was prepared by in situ incorporation,thermal decomposition and acid etching.The resulting materials were characterized and employed in catalytic ozonation for the reduction of 4-NP.Under the specific experimental conditions of the O_(3)+BC0.3-H/MS system,the total organic carbon(TOC)and chemical oxygen demand(COD)removal rates of 4-NP were observed to reach 94.6%and 91.8%within 30 min,respectively.These two parameters were improved by raising the initial pH,reducing the pollutant concentration and increasing the catalyst dosage.The abundant oxygen vacancies(OVs)were regarded as the pivotal catalytic site of BC0.3-H/MS,which was conducive to the adsorption of O_(3) and the acceleration of the formation of reactive oxygen species(ROS).The regular hollow square structure effectively boosted the specific surface area,increased OVs exposure and accelerated the adsorption and mass transfer process.The electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR)results demonstrated that the primary ROS engaged in the degradation reaction were⋅OH and⋅O_(2)−.BC0.3-H/MS demonstrated excellent stability and reusability in cyclic experiments.Toxicity analysis revealed that the O_(3)+BC0.3-H/MS system exhibited an effective detoxification effect.Ultimately,the primary degradation pathway of 4-NP was proposed through liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy(LC-MS)and in-situ diffuse reflectance infrared fourier-transform spectroscopy(DRIFTS)analyses at varying reaction times.

文摘The current technical standards primarily relied on experience to judge the interfacial bonding properties between the self-compacting concrete filling layer and the steam-cured concrete precast slab in CRTS Ⅲ slab ballastless track structure.This study sought to enhance technical standards for evaluating interfacial bonding properties by suggesting the use of the splitting tensile strength to evaluate the impact of bubble defects.Specimens were fabricated through on-site experiment.The percent of each area of 6 cm^(2)or more bubble defect was 0 in most of specimens.When the cumulative area of all bub-ble defects reached 12%,the splitting tensile strength value was 0.67 MPa,which exceeded the minimum required value of 0.5 MPa for ensuring bonding interface adhesion.Furthermore,when the cumulative area of all bubble defects reached 8%,the splitting tensile strength value was 0.85 MPa,which exceeded the minimum required value of 0.8 MPa,thereby over-coming the negative impact of each area of 10 cm^(2) or more bubble defect.Additionally,keeping the cumulative area of each area of 6 cm^(2) or more bubble defect below 6%ensured adequate bonding strength and reduced the occurrence of specimens with lower splitting tensile strength values.
文摘We present a semi-analytic method to study the electronic conductance of a lengthy armchair honeycomb nanoribbon in the presence of vacancies, defects, or impurities located at a small part of it. For this purpose, we employ the Green's function technique within the nearest neighbor tight-binding approach. We first convert the Hamiltonian of an ideal semiinfinite nanoribbon to the Hamiltonian of some independent polyacetylene-like chains. Then, we derive an exact formula for the self-energy of the perturbed part due to the existence of ideal parts. The method gives a fully analytical formalism for some cases such as an infinite ideal nanoribbon and the one including linear symmetric defects. We calculate the transmission coefficient for some different configurations of a nanoribbon with special width including a vacancy, edge geometrical defects, and two electrical impurities.

文摘Developing transition metal oxides(TMOs)with high energy,power,and long cycle lifetime for elec-tric energy storage devices remains a critical challenge to date.Herein,we demonstrate a facile method that enables in-situ transformation of nickel cobalt oxide nanowire arrays(NiCoO NWA)into hierarchical nanowire-nanosheet arrays(ac-NiCoO NWSA)for enhanced energy storage properties.More specifically,the method leads to formation of atomically thin nanosheets(only 2.0 nm)and creates abundant an-tisite defects and oxygen vacancies.Owing to these merits,the as-prepared ac-NiCoO NWSA electrode exhibits over five-fold higher specific capacity,superior rate capability(up to 100 A/g),and excellent cy-cling stability of 10,000 cycles at 50 A/g in alkaline electrolyte compared to pristine NiCoO NWA.Density functional theory(DFT)simulations elucidate the electrochemical activity enhancement mechanism of the TMOs.Moreover,our method triggers similar structural reconstruction phenomenon on other TMOs including ZnCo-,CoMn-and ZnNiCo-oxides,proving the universality of the method.Our findings provide a general method towards simultaneously manipulating the micro-morphologies and defects of TMOs for advanced energy storage devices.
文摘Herein,we established a Zn_(3)(OH)_(2)(V_(2)O_(7))(H_(2)O)_(2)/V-Zn(O,S)Z-scheme heterojunction labeled ZnVO/V-Zn(O,S)with a heterovalent V^(4+)/V^(5+)states and oxygen vacancies in both phases via a one-step in-situ hydrolysis method.The NaBH_(4) regulated the ZnVO/V-Zn(O,S)-3 with rich Vo and suitable n(V^(4+))/n(V^(5+))ratio achieved an excellent photocatalytic nitrogen fixation activity of 301.7μmol/(g×h)and apparent quantum efficiency of 1.148%at 420 nm without any sacrificial agent,which is 11 times than that of V-Zn(O,S).The Vo acts as the active site to trap and activate N_(2) molecules and to trap and activate H_(2)O to produce the H for N_(2) molecules photocatalytic reduction.The rich Vo defects can also reduce the competitive adsorption of H_(2)O and N_(2) molecules on the surface active site of the catalyst.The heterovalent vanadium states act as the photogenerated electrons,quickly hopping between V^(4+)and V^(5+)to transfer for the photocatalytic N_(2) reduction reaction.Additionally,the Z-scheme heterojunction effectively minimizes photogenerated carrier recombination.These synergistic effects collectively boost the photocatalytic nitrogen fixation activity.This study provides a practical method for designing Z-scheme heterojunctions for efficient photocatalytic N_(2) fixation under mild conditions.

文摘The dynamic study of radiation-induced defects with annealing is critical for the material design for nextgeneration nuclear energy systems.The native vacancy could affect the development of defects,which lacks study.In the present work,the as-hot pressed ZrC_(1-x)(x=0,0.15,0.3)ceramics which comprised crystallites of a few microns in size with different amounts of carbon vacancies were irradiated by 540 ke V He^(2+)ions at room temperature with a fluence of 1×10^(17)/cm^(2).The radiation-induced lattice expansion was found to be a common phenomenon in a sequence of ZrC_(0.85)≥ZrC_(1.0)>ZrC_(0.7).Both X-ray and electron diffractions confirmed maintenance of structural integrity without amorphization after irradiation.Inside the irradiated region,only“black-dot”type defects,i.e.,clusters of point defects were observed while no helium-induced cavities,cracks,or extended dislocations were detected.The as-irradiated ZrC_(1-x)were then annealed at different high temperatures.Upon annealing at 800℃,very tiny helium-induced cavities were found to be generated and the crystal lattice recovered to a great extent,especially for the sub-stoichiometric samples.While annealed at 1500℃,all the samples almost fully recovered the crystal lattices close to those of as-hot pressed ones.Meanwhile,large cavities and extended dislocations were generated.With increasing amount of native carbon vacancies,the size of cavities increased while the length and density of extended dislocations decreased.Inverse changes of lattice parameters during irradiation and annealing processes have been interpreted by the kinetics of defects.Finally,the correlation between native vacancies and damage behavior is discussed.
文摘Thickness effects of thin La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 （LSMO） films on （LaAlOa）0.3（Sr2AlTaO6）0.7 substrates were examined by a slow positron beam technique. Doppler-broadening line shape parameter S was measured as a function of thickness and differnt annealing conditions. Results reveal there could be more than one mechanism to induce vacancy-like defects. It was found that strain-induced defects mainly influence the S value of the in situ oxygenambience annealing LSMO thin films and the strain could vanish still faster along with the increase of thickness, and the oxygen-deficient induced defects mainly affect the S value of post-annealing LSMO films.
文摘Based on inspection data,the authors analyze and summarize the main types and distribution characteristics of tunnel structural defects.These defects are classified into three types:surface defects,internal defects,and defects behind the structure.To address the need for rapid detection of different defect types,the current state of rapid detection technologies and equipment,both domestically and internationally,is systematically reviewed.The research reveals that surface defect detection technologies and equipment have developed rapidly in recent years.Notably,the integration of machine vision and laser scanning technologies have significantly improved detection efficiency and accuracy,achieving crack detection precision of up to 0.1 mm.However,the non-contact rapid detection of internal and behind-the-structure defects remains constrained by hardware limitations,with traditional detection remaining dominant.Nevertheless,phased array radar,ultrasonic,and acoustic vibration detection technologies have become research hotspots in recent years,offering promising directions for detecting these challenging defect types.Additionally,the application of multisensor fusion technology in rapid detection equipment has further enhanced detection capabilities.Devices such as cameras,3D laser scanners,infrared thermal imagers,and radar demonstrate significant advantages in rapid detection.Future research in tunnel inspection should prioritize breakthroughs in rapid detection technologies for internal and behind-the-structure defects.Efforts should also focus on developing multifunctional integrated detection vehicles that can simultaneously inspect both surface and internal structures.Furthermore,progress in fully automated,intelligent systems with precise defect identification and real-time reporting will be essential to significantly improve the efficiency and accuracy of tunnel inspection.
