In this work, an inner doping strategy is explored by filling CNTs with one-dimensional(1D)-TM_(6)Te_(6) nanowires to form TM_(6)Te_(6)@CNT-(16,0) 1D van der Waals heterostructures(1D-vd WHs). The systematic first-principles studies on the electronic properties of 1D-vd WHs show that N-type doping CNTs can be formed by charge transfer from TM_(6)Te_(6) nanowires to CNTs, without introducing additional carrier scattering.Particularly, contribution from both T M(e.g., Sc and Y) and Te atoms strengthens the charge transfer. The outside CNTs further confine the dispersion of Te-p orbitals in nanowires that deforms the C-π states at the bottom of the conduction band to quasi sp^(3) hybridization. Our study provides an inner doping strategy that can effectively confine the charge polarity of CNTs and further broaden its applications in some novel nano-devices.展开更多

文摘Adjustable or programmable metamaterials offer versatile functions,while the complex multi-dimensional regulation increases workload,and hinders their applications in practical scenarios.To address these challenges,we present a mechanically programmable acoustic metamaterial for real-time focal tuning via one-dimensional phase-gradient modulation in this paper.The device integrates a phase gradient structure with concave cavity channels and an x-shaped telescopic mechanical framework,enabling dynamic adjustment of inter-unit spacing(1 mm-3 mm)through a microcontroller-driven motor.By modulating the spacing between adjacent channels,the phase gradient is precisely controlled,allowing continuous focal shift from 50 mm to 300 mm along the x-axis at 7500 Hz.Broadband focusing is also discussed in the range6800 Hz-8100 Hz,with transmission coefficients exceeding 0.5,ensuring high efficiency and robust performance.Experimental results align closely with simulations,validating the design's effectiveness and adaptability.Unlike conventional programmable metamaterials requiring multi-dimensional parameter optimization,this approach simplifies real-time control through single-axis mechanical adjustment,significantly reducing operational complexity.Due to the advantages of broadband focusing,simple control mode,real-time monitoring,and so on,the device may have extensive applications in the fields of acoustic imaging,nondestructive testing,ultrasound medical treatment,etc.

文摘Morphing technology is considered a crucial direction for the future development of aircraft.However,conventional morphing aircraft often employ complex actuation mechanisms and actuators to drive the morphing process.The associated costs in terms of structural weight increase and space occupancy are prohibitively high,even exceeding the benefit of morphing.Especially for high aspect ratio aircraft with large root bending moments,it is very difficult for actuators to directly drive wing deformation.To address this issue,aerodynamic forces generated by control surface deflection can be utilized as an alternative to actuator-driven morphing.This approach reduces the overall cost of morphing while enhancing its benefits.This novel aerodynamic-driven morphing technique imposes new requirements and challenges on the aerodynamic design of aircraft.With a combination of flight experiments and numerical simulations,this article analyzes the variations in aerodynamic forces during the aerodynamic-driven process.Using a high aspect ratio longendurance UAV as the design baseline,the design method of the control surface for aerodynamic-driven morphing is also discussed.

文摘Background In recent years,the demand for interactive photorealistic three-dimensional(3D)environments has increased in various fields,including architecture,engineering,and entertainment.However,achieving a balance between the quality and efficiency of high-performance 3D applications and virtual reality(VR)remains challenging.Methods This study addresses this issue by revisiting and extending view interpolation for image-based rendering(IBR),which enables the exploration of spacious open environments in 3D and VR.Therefore,we introduce multimorphing,a novel rendering method based on the spatial data structure of 2D image patches,called the image graph.Using this approach,novel views can be rendered with up to six degrees of freedom using only a sparse set of views.The rendering process does not require 3D reconstruction of the geometry or per-pixel depth information,and all relevant data for the output are extracted from the local morphing cells of the image graph.The detection of parallax image regions during preprocessing reduces rendering artifacts by extrapolating image patches from adjacent cells in real-time.In addition,a GPU-based solution was presented to resolve exposure inconsistencies within a dataset,enabling seamless transitions of brightness when moving between areas with varying light intensities.Results Experiments on multiple real-world and synthetic scenes demonstrate that the presented method achieves high"VR-compatible"frame rates,even on mid-range and legacy hardware,respectively.While achieving adequate visual quality even for sparse datasets,it outperforms other IBR and current neural rendering approaches.Conclusions Using the correspondence-based decomposition of input images into morphing cells of 2D image patches,multidimensional image morphing provides high-performance novel view generation,supporting open 3D and VR environments.Nevertheless,the handling of morphing artifacts in the parallax image regions remains a topic for future research.

文摘This paper investigates the influence of the spanwise-distributed trailing-edge camber morphing on the dynamic stall characteristics of a finite-span wing at Re=2×10^(5).The mathematical model of the spanwise-distributed trailing-edge camber morphing is established based on Chebyshev polynomials,and the deformed wing surface is modeled by a spline surface according to the rib's morphing in the chordwise direction.The Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD)method is adopted to obtain flow-field results and aerodynamic forces.The SST-γmodel is introduced and the overset mesh technique is adopted.The numerical results show that the spanwisedistributed trailing-edge morphing obviously changes the aerodynamic and energy transfer characteristics of the dynamic stall.Especially when the phase difference between the trailing-edge motion and the wing pitch is-π/2,the interaction between the three-dimensional(3-D)Leading-Edge Vortex(LEV)and Trailing-Edge Vortex(TEV)is strengthened,and the work done by the aerodynamic force turns negative.This indicates that the trailing-edge deformation has the potential to suppress the oscillation amplitude of stall flutter.We also found that as the trailing-edge camber morphing varies more complexly along the spanwise direction,the suppression effect decreases accordingly.

文摘The oxygen evolution reaction(OER),a critical half-reaction in water electrolysis,has garnered significant attention.However,sluggish OER kinetics has emerged as a major impediment to efficient electrochemical energy conversion.There is an urgent need to design novel electrocatalysts with optimized OER kinetics and enhanced intrinsic activity to improve overall OER performance.Herein,one-dimensional(1D)nanocomposites with high electrocatalytic activity were developed through the deposition of CoFePBA nanocubes onto the surface of MnO_(2) nanowires.The electronic structure of the nanocomposite surface was modified,and the synergistic effects between transition metals were leveraged to enhance catalytic activity through the deposition of Prussian blue analog(PBA)nanocubes on manganese dioxide nanowires.Specifically,CoFePBA featured an open crystal structure that offiered numerous electrochemical active sites and efficient charge transfer pathways.Additionally,the synergistic interactions between Co and Fe significantly reduced the OER overpotential.Additionally,the 1D rigid MnO_(2) acted as protective armor,ensuring the stability of active sites within CoFePBA during the OER.The synthesized MnO_(2)@CoFePBA achieved an overpotential of 1.614 V at 10 mA/cm^(2) and a small Tafel slope of 94 mV/dec and demonstrated stable performance for over 200 h.This work offers new insights into the rational design of various PBA-based nanocomposites with high activity and stability.

文摘Morphing aircraft are designed to adaptively adjust their shape for changing flight missions,which enables them to improve their flight performance significantly for future applications.The folding wingtips represent a key research aspect for morphing aircraft,since they can lead to potential improvements in flight range,maneuverability,load alleviation and airport compatibility.This paper proposes a hinge mechanism design for folding wingtips based on the shape memory alloy torsion tube,aiming to achieve successful folding using the actuation effect of the shape memory alloy.The proposed design employs a shape memory alloy torsion tube as the actuator for the active folding of the wingtip,which is motivated by the characteristics of the tube,enabling a simplified structure for the integration with high energy density.Through numerical simulation and testing of the folding wingtip structure,the concept is verified,which shows its potential as an actuator for folding wingtips.

文摘This paper aims to design a morphing wing with both Flexible Leading Edge(FLE)and Flexible Trailing Edge(FTE)by using cellular structures,which can help the wing boost the deformation to a greater extent on the premise that the weight is not changed,so as to play a greater role in aerodynamic control such as gust interference.First,as for structural design,based on NACA0012,a morphing wing model constructed by 3 forms of cell structures is proposed.Then,the aerodynamic characteristics under the interference of FLE and FTE are calculated by the Computational Fluid Dynamic(CFD)method.After the surrogate model is established to predict the lift coefficient of the wing effectively,the sensitivity analysis reveals that the main sensitivity index of FTE deflection angle β is 0.565,which has the greatest influence on the lift coefficient.And the total sensitivity index of FLE deflection angle γ is increased by 78.9%,which reveals a strong coupling relationship between FLE and FTE.Finally,using Finite Element Analysis(FEA)method and experiment,the deformation capability of the model under certain static loads are obtained.The results reveal that the maximum deflection angle of the morphing wing model can be±22°at FLE and±64°at FTE,indicating strong structural stiffness and resistance to bending breakage of the model.The presented results can be useful in the design of the cellular morphing wing with multiple flexible systems.

文摘One-dimensional nano-grating standard(ODNGS)is widely recognized as a crucial nanometric standard for metrological technology.However,achieving the ultratiny size of ODNGS with high consistent uniformity and low roughness by conventional processes such as the inductively coupled plasma(ICP)etching methodpresents a significant challenge in obtaining accurate calibration values.In this work,a 50-nm ODNGS with a conformal buffer layer(Al_(2)O_(3))is successfully obtained,indicating outstanding stability and abrasion resistance.Remarkably,the introduction of hydrogen silsesquioxane(HSQ)and amorphous Al_(2)O_(3)simultaneously guarantees an incredibly small expanded uncertainty(0.5 nm)and repeatability of the standard uniformity(less than 0.3 nm)in the grating dimensions.TheⅠ-Ⅴcurves of ODNGS with an Al_(2)O_(3)buffer layer at room temperature(RT)and200℃are depicted respectively to showcase the sustained favorable insulation properties.Notably,the nanostructure fluctuation,line edge roughness(LER)and line width roughness(LWR)of the standard can be decreased obviously by 64.1%,63%and 70%,respectively.Our results suggest that the ODNGS with Al_(2)O_(3)exhibits exceptional precision and robust calibration reliability for calibrating nanoscale measuring instruments.It holds tremendous potential for manufacturing high-precision nanostructures and grating arrays with precisely controllable dimensions,which will play a pivotal role in the fabrication of microfluidics chips,metasurface and photodetectors in the future.

文摘Controlling charge polarity in the semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes(CNTs) by substitutional doping is a difficult work due to their extremely strong C–C bonding. In this work, an inner doping strategy is explored by filling CNTs with one-dimensional(1D)-TM_(6)Te_(6) nanowires to form TM_(6)Te_(6)@CNT-(16,0) 1D van der Waals heterostructures(1D-vd WHs). The systematic first-principles studies on the electronic properties of 1D-vd WHs show that N-type doping CNTs can be formed by charge transfer from TM_(6)Te_(6) nanowires to CNTs, without introducing additional carrier scattering.Particularly, contribution from both T M(e.g., Sc and Y) and Te atoms strengthens the charge transfer. The outside CNTs further confine the dispersion of Te-p orbitals in nanowires that deforms the C-π states at the bottom of the conduction band to quasi sp^(3) hybridization. Our study provides an inner doping strategy that can effectively confine the charge polarity of CNTs and further broaden its applications in some novel nano-devices.
