文摘The development of high-performance transparent substrates is critical for next-generation flexible electronic devices.Herein,we designed two novel meta-substituted diamines incorporating trifluoromethyl(―CF_(3))and methyl(―CH_(3))groups to synthesize colorless copolyimide(CPI)films via copolymerization with 4,4′-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride(6FDA)/3,3′,4,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride(BPDA).The combination of meta-substituted architecture and substituents enables the simultaneous attainment of an ultralow dielectric constant(D_k)and high transparency.The meta-substitution geometry and electronic effects of―CF_(3)/―CH_(3) effectively suppressed charge-transfer complex(CTC)formation,expanded fractional free volume(FFV),and restricted π-electron conjugation,as validated by DFT calculations and wide-angle X-ray diffraction(WAXD)analysis.The optimized CPI film(PIA_(1)-6FDA/BPDA(10/0))achieved outstanding transmittance(T_(450)=88.15%),ultralow dielectric constant(D_(k)=2.08 at 1 k Hz),and minimal dielectric loss(D_(f)=0.0012),while maintaining robust thermal stability(T_(d5%)>523℃)and mechanical strength(σ=87.5 MPa).This work establishes a molecular engineering strategy to concurrently enhance the optical and dielectric properties,positioning meta-substituted CPIs as promising candidates for transparent flexible devices.

文摘Designing and preparing a compatible electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding,radar and infrared stealth material exhibits significant prospect in the military field.Hence,a novel conductive/magnetic polyimide-based nonwoven fabric(PFN_y)is prepared by alkali treatment,Fe~(3+)ion exchange,thermal reduction,and electroless nickel(Ni)plating process.Its impedance/insulation characteristics can be easily adjusted by controlling the in situ growth of Fe_(3)O_(4) and electroless nickel plating.Subsequently,a new strategy of constructing hierarchical dual-gradient impedance/insulation structure is implemented to achieve EMI shielding,radar and infrared stealth via stacking PFN_y with gradually decreased impedance/insulation characteristics from top to bottom.The formation of impedance matching gradient structure promotes effective introduction and dissipation of electromagnetic waves,endowing the composite with outstanding EMI shielding and radar stealth performance.Meanwhile,the construction of thermal insulation gradient structure can effectively inhibit thermal radiation from target,bringing an excellent infrared stealth performance.Importantly,the strong interfacial interactions between Fe_(3)O_(4),Ni and polyimide fiber accelerate PFNy to resist the stresses originated from high-temperature heat source,achieving a compatible high-temperature resistant radar/infrared stealth performance.Such excellent comprehensive properties endow it with a great potential in high-temperature military camouflage applications against enemy radar and infrared detection.

文摘With the miniaturization and high-frequency evolution of antennas in 5G/6G communications,aerospace,and transportation,polymer composite papers integrating superior wave-transparent performance and thermal conductivity for radar antenna systems are urgently needed.Herein,a down-top strategy was employed to synthesize poly(p-phenylene benzobisoxazole)precursor nanofibers(prePNF).The prePNF was then uniformly mixed with fluorinated graphene(FG)to fabricate FG/PNF composite papers through consecutively suction filtration,hot-pressing,and thermal annealing.The hydroxyl and amino groups in prePNF enhanced the stability of FG/prePNF dispersion,while the increasedπ-πinteractions between PNF and FG after annealing improved their compatibility.The preparation time and cost of PNF paper was significantly reduced when applying this strategy,which enabled its large-scale production.Furthermore,the prepared FG/PNF composite papers exhibited excellent wave-transparent performance and thermal conductivity.When the mass fraction of FG was 40 wt%,the FG/PNF composite paper prepared via the down-top strategy achieved the wave-transparent coefficient(|T|2)of 96.3%under 10 GHz,in-plane thermal conductivity(λ_(∥))of 7.13 W m^(−1)K^(−1),and through-plane thermal conductivity(λ_(⊥))of 0.67 W m^(−1)K^(−1),outperforming FG/PNF composite paper prepared by the top-down strategy(|T|2=95.9%,λ_(∥)=5.52 W m^(−1)K^(−1),λ_(⊥)=0.52 W m^(−1)K^(−1))and pure PNF paper(|T|2=94.7%,λ_(∥)=3.04 W m^(−1)K^(−1),λ_(⊥)=0.24 W m^(−1)K^(−1)).Meanwhile,FG/PNF composite paper(with 40 wt%FG)through the down-top strategy also demonstrated outstanding mechanical properties with tensile strength and toughness reaching 197.4 MPa and 11.6 MJ m^(−3),respectively.

文摘Improving device efficiency is fundamental for advancing energy harvesting technology,particularly in systems designed to convert light energy into electrical output.In our previous studies,we developed a basic structure light pressure electric generator(Basic-LPEG),which utilized a layered configuration of Ag/Pb(Zr,Ti)O_(3)(PZT)/Pt/GaAs to generate electricity based on light-induced pressure on the PZT.In this study,we sought to enhance the performance of this Basic-LPEG by introducing Ag nanoparticles/graphene oxide(AgNPs/GO)composite units(NP-LPEG),creating upgraded harvesting device.Specifically,by depositing the AgNPs/GO units twice onto the Basic-LPEG,we observed an increase in output voltage and current from 241 mV and 3.1μA to 310 mV and 9.3μA,respectively,under a solar simulator.The increase in electrical output directly correlated with the intensity of the light pressure impacting the PZT,as well as matched the Raman measurements,finite-difference time-domain simulations,and COMSOL Multiphysics Simulation.Experimental data revealed that the enhancement in electrical output was proportional to the number of hot spots generated between Ag nanoparticles,where the electric field experienced substantial amplification.These results underline the effectiveness of AgNPs/GO units in boosting the light-induced electric generation capacity,thereby providing a promising pathway for high-efficiency energy harvesting devices.

文摘In this study,multilayer lamination welding was employed to prepare graphene/copper(Gr/Cu)composite billets from graphene-coated copper foils,followed by multi-pass cold drawing to produce Φ1 mm Gr/Cu composite wires.Microstructure and property analyses in both the cold-drawn and annealed states show that the incorporation of graphene significantly improves the ductility and electrical conductivity of the copper wire.After annealing at 350℃ for 30 minutes,the composite wire demonstrates a tensile strength of 270 MPa and an electrical conductivity of 102.74%IACS,both superior to those of pure copper wire under identical conditions.At 150℃,the electrical conductivity of the annealed composite wire reaches 72.60%IACS,notably higher than the 68.19%IACS of pure copper.The results suggest that graphene is uniformly distributed within the composite wire,with minimal impact on conductivity,while effectively refining the copper grain structure to enhance ductility.Moreover,graphene suppresses copper lattice vibrations at elevated temperatures,reducing the rate of conductivity degradation.

文摘Artificial intelligence(AI)based models have been used to predict the structural,optical,mechanical,and electrochemical properties of zinc oxide/graphene oxide nanocomposites.Machine learning(ML)models such as Artificial Neural Networks(ANN),Support Vector Regression(SVR),Multilayer Perceptron(MLP),and hybrid,along with fuzzy logic tools,were applied to predict the different properties like wavelength at maximum intensity(444 nm),crystallite size(17.50 nm),and optical bandgap(2.85 eV).While some other properties,such as energy density,power density,and charge transfer resistance,were also predicted with the help of datasets of 1000(80:20).In general,the energy parameters were predicted more accurately by hybrid models.The hydrothermal method was used to synthesize graphene oxide(GO)and zinc oxide(ZnO)nanocomposites.The increased surface area,conductivity,and stability of graphene oxide in zinc oxide nanoparticles make the composite an ideal option for energy storage.X-ray diffraction(XRD)confirmed the crystallite size of 17.41 nm for the nanocomposite and the presence of GO(12.8○)peaks.The scanning electron microscope(SEM)showed anchored wrinkled GO sheets on zinc oxide with an average particle size of 2.93μm.Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX)confirmed the elemental composition,and Fouriertransform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR)revealed the impact of GO on functional groups and electrochemical behavior.Photoluminescence(PL)wavelength of(439 nm)and band gap of(2.81 eV)show that the material is suitable for energy applications in nanocomposites.Smart nanocomposite materials with improved performance in energy storage and related applications were fabricated by combining synthesis,characterization,fuzzy logic,and machine learning in this work.

文摘When two layers of graphene are stacked with a twist angle of approximately 1.1°,strong interlayer coupling gives rise to a pair of flat bands in twisted bilayer graphene(TBG),resulting in pronounced electron–electron interactions.At half filling of the flat bands,TBG exhibits correlated insulating states.Here,we investigate the electrical transport properties of heterostructures composed of TBG and the antiferromagnetic insulator chromium oxychloride(CrOCl),and propose a strategy to modulate the correlated insulating states in TBG.During the transition from a conventional phase to a strong interfacial coupling phase,kink-like features are observed in the charge neutrality point(CNP),correlated insulating state,and band insulating state.Under a perpendicular magnetic field,the system exhibits broadened quantum Hall plateaus in the strong interfacial coupling regime.Electrons localized in the CrOCl layer screen the bottom gate,rendering the carrier density in TBG less sensitive to variations in the bottom gate voltage.These phenomena are well captured by a charge-transfer model between TBG and CrOCl.Our results provide insights into the control of electronic correlations and topological states in graphene moirésystems via interfacial charge coupling.

文摘Flash Joule heating(FJH),as a high-efficiency and low-energy consumption technology for advanced materials synthesis,has shown significant potential in the synthesis of graphene and other functional carbon materials.Based on the Joule effect,the solid carbon sources can be rapidly heated to ultra-high temperatures(>3000 K)through instantaneous high-energy current pulses during FJH,thus driving the rapid rearrangement and graphitization of carbon atoms.This technology demonstrates numerous advantages,such as solvent-and catalyst-free features,high energy conversion efficiency,and a short process cycle.In this review,we have systematically summarized the technology principle and equipment design for FJH,as well as its raw materials selection and pretreatment strategies.The research progress in the FJH synthesis of flash graphene,carbon nanotubes,graphene fibers,and anode hard carbon,as well as its by-products,is also presented.FJH can precisely optimize the microstructures of carbon materials(e.g.,interlayer spacing of turbostratic graphene,defect concentration,and heteroatom doping)by regulating its operation parameters like flash voltage and flash time,thereby enhancing their performances in various applications,such as composite reinforcement,metal-ion battery electrodes,supercapacitors,and electrocatalysts.However,this technology is still challenged by low process yield,macroscopic material uniformity,and green power supply system construction.More research efforts are also required to promote the transition of FJH from laboratory to industrial-scale applications,thus providing innovative solutions for advanced carbon materials manufacturing and waste management toward carbon neutrality.

文摘This study investigates the anisotropic thermal conductivity of aluminum matrix composites reinforced with graphene nano-plates(GNPs)and in situ ZrB_(2) nanoparticles,while simultaneously maintaining high strength and toughness.A discontinuous layered GNPs-ZrB_(2)/AA6111 composite was prepared using in situ melt reactions and semi-solid stirring casting technology,combined with hot rolling deformation processing.Microstructural analysis revealed that the GNPs were aligned parallel to the rolling direction-transverse direction(RD-TD)plane,whereas the ZrB_(2) nanoparticles aggregated into cluster strips,collectively forming a discontinuous layered structure.This multilayer arrangement maximized the in-plane thermal conductivity of the GNPs.The tightly bonded GNP/Al interfaces with the locking of CuAl_(2) nanoparticles ensured that the GNPs fully exploited their high thermal conductivity.Therefore,the GNPs-ZrB_(2)/AA6111 composite achieved high in-plane thermal conductivity(230 W/(m·K)),which is higher than that of the matrix(206 W/(m·K)).The improved in-plane thermal conductivity is primarily attributed to the exceptionally high intrinsic in-plane thermal conductivity of the GNPs and their two-dimensional layered structure.However,the composite exhibited pronounced thermal conductivity anisotropy in the in-plane and through-plane directions.The reduced through-plane thermal conductivity is predominantly caused by the intrinsically low through-plane thermal conductivity of the GNPs and the increased interfacial thermal resistance from the additional grain boundaries.

文摘Three-dimensional(3D)-printedgraphene aerogels hold promise for electromagneticwave absorption(EWA)engineering due to itsultralow density,outstanding electromagnetic dissipationwith the flexibility and precision of manufacturingstrategies.However,their high conductivitycauses severe impedance mismatch,limiting EWAperformance.3D printing requirements also constrainthe dielectric properties of printable grapheneinks,hindering the integration of high-performanceabsorbers with advanced manufacturing.This studyproposes a polyacrylic acid(PAA)gel-mediated3D porous graphene oxide(GO)aerogel multiscaleregulation strategy.Precise gel content control enablesdual-gradient tuning of the rheology(Benefitingdirect ink writing(DIW))and dielectric loss(Enhancing EWA)of GO/PAA composites and reduces aerogel density(6.9 mg cm^(-3)from28.2 mg cm^(-3)).Thermal reduction decomposes PAA into amorphous carbon nanoparticles anchored on reduced graphene oxide(rGO),enhancingimpedance matching and absorption via synergistic 0D/2D interfacial polarization and conductive loss.The optimized rGO/PAA aerogelachieves a minimum reflection loss(RL)of-39.86 dB at 2.5 mm and an effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)of 8.36 GHz(9.64-18 GHz)at3.2 mm.Combining DIW and this aerogel,we design a metamaterial absorber(MA)with dual material(dielectric loss)and structural gradients.This MA exhibits an ultrawide EAB of 14 GHz(4-18 GHz)with a total thickness of 7.8 mm.This work establishes a coupled design paradigmof“composition-structure-performance,”providing an engineerable solution for developing lightweight,broadband EWA materials.

文摘In coal mining on a high-pressure Ordovician limestone aquifer,grouting materials should have sufficient mechanical properties,particularly strong interfacial bonding performance to address stress concentration at the grout-limestone interface induced by rock stress disturbances during mining.In this study,graphene oxide(GO)was integrated into cement-polyacrylate composite grout to improve its interfacial bonding.First,four-point bending tests were conducted,and the Monte Carlo method combined with the simplex search algorithm was employed to determine the variations in shear cohesion and static friction parameters.The results reveal that GO can significantly increase both the tensile and shear cohesion of the grout-limestone interface,but minimally affects the interfacial friction coefficient.Second,nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)and scanning electron microscopy(SEM)tests were performed.The results indicate that GO nanosheets result in a squamaceous microstructure of the grout consolidation mass,increasing the adhesion of the grout-limestone interface.Moreover,spiny Aft(ettringite)clusters can be induced in limestone fracture surfaces by GO,which could serve as anchors for limestone and grout consolidation mass.

文摘The development of high-performance microwave absorption materials with strong absorption capacity and broad bandwidth is highly desirable in the field of electromagnetic pollution protection.Herein,ultralight polyimide-based graphene foam with ordered lamellar structure is precisely designed and controllably constructed by bidirectional freezing process.More lamellar interfaces formed inside the foam per unit volume effectively facilitate the layer-by-layer dissipation for the vertical incident electromagnetic waves,thereby endowing the foam with efficient broadband electromagnetic absorption performance.More importantly,electromagnetic absorption performance can be controllably adjusted by optimizing impedance distribution and microstructure of skeletons.As a result,the optimized foam with an ultralow density of 9.10 mg/cm^(3)presents a minimum reflection loss value of-61.29 dB at 9.25 GHz and an effective absorption bandwidth of 5.51 GHz(7.06-12.57 GHz,covering the whole X band) when the thickness is 4.75 mm.

文摘With vigorous developments in nanotechnology,the elaborate regulation of microstructure shows attractive potential in the design of electromagnetic wave absorbers.Herein,a hierarchical porous structure and composite heterogeneous interface are constructed successfully to optimize the electromagnetic loss capacity.The macro–micro-synergistic graphene aerogel formed by the ice template‑assisted 3D printing strategy is cut by silicon carbide nanowires(SiC_(nws))grown in situ,while boron nitride(BN)interfacial structure is introduced on graphene nanoplates.The unique composite structure forces multiple scattering of incident EMWs,ensuring the combined effects of interfacial polarization,conduction networks,and magnetic-dielectric synergy.Therefore,the as-prepared composites present a minimum reflection loss value of−37.8 dB and a wide effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)of 9.2 GHz(from 8.8 to 18.0 GHz)at 2.5 mm.Besides,relying on the intrinsic high-temperature resistance of SiC_(nws) and BN,the EAB also remains above 5.0 GHz after annealing in air environment at 600℃ for 10 h.
