The assessment of electromagnetic SE for Slotted Composite Structures(SCSs) is particularly challenging due to their complex geometries and there remains a lack of suitable models for accurately predicting the SE performance of these intricate configurations. To address this issue, this paper introduces SCS-Net, a Deep Neural Network (DNN) method designed to accurately predict the SE of SCS. This method considers the impacts of various structural parameters, material properties and incident wave parameters on the SE of SCSs. In order to better model the SCS, an improved Nicolson-Ross-Weir (NRW) method is introduced in this paper to provide an equivalent flat structure for the SCS and to calculate the electromagnetic parameters of the equivalent structure. Additionally, the prediction of SE via DNNs is limited by insufficient test data, which hinders support for large-sample training. To address the issue of limited measured data, this paper develops a Measurement-Computation Fusion (MCF) dataset construction method. The predictions based on the simulation results show that the proposed method maintains an error of less than 0.07 dB within the 8–10 GHz frequency range. Furthermore, a new loss function based on the weighted L1-norm is established to improve the prediction accuracy for these parameters. Compared with traditional loss functions, the new loss function reduces the maximum prediction error for equivalent electromagnetic parameters by 47%. This method significantly improves the prediction accuracy of SCS-Net for measured data, with a maximum improvement of 23.88%. These findings demonstrate that the proposed method enables precise SE prediction and design for composite structures while reducing the number of test samples needed.展开更多

Based on this assumption, to perform the maintenance and repair of aircraft composite structures, the damage of composite structures in a certain type of aircraft were investigated. The time-varying damage distribution model was established and verified based on the damage of a 16-aircraft fleet. The results show that the quantitative proportions of structural damage are 74% for skin delamination, 22% for stringer delamination and 3% for stringer-skin interface debonding. The amount of structural damages increases linearly with service time while the proportion of different damages does not change. As the service time increases, the geometric parameter distribution of damage for the same type of aircraft gradually converges, which can be approximated using the same function. There are certain differences in the proportion and geometric parameter distribution of damages among different components and locations, and the differences do not change over time.展开更多

In order to obtain high-density dual-scale ceramic particles(8.5 wt.%SiC+1.5 wt.%TiC)reinforced Al-Mg Sc-Zr composites with uniform microstructure,50 nm TiC and 7μm SiC particles were pre-dispersed into 15−53μm alum...In order to obtain high-density dual-scale ceramic particles(8.5 wt.%SiC+1.5 wt.%TiC)reinforced Al-Mg Sc-Zr composites with uniform microstructure,50 nm TiC and 7μm SiC particles were pre-dispersed into 15−53μm aluminum alloy powders by low-speed ball milling and mechanical mixing technology,respectively.Then,the effects of laser energy density,power and scanning rate on the density of the composites were investigated based on selective laser melting(SLM)technology.The effect of micron-sized SiC and nano-sized TiC particles on solidification structure,mechanical properties and fracture behaviors of the composites was revealed and analyzed in detail.Interfacial reaction and phase variations in the composites with varying reinforced particles were emphatically considered.Results showed that SiC-TiC particles could significantly improve forming quality and density of the SLMed composites,and the optimal relative density was up to 100%.In the process of laser melting,a strong chemical reaction occurs between SiC and aluminum matrix,and micron-scale acicular Al_(4)SiC_(4) bands were formed in situ.There was no interfacial reaction between TiC particles and aluminum matrix.TiC/Al semi-coherent interface had good bonding strength.Pinning effect of TiC particles in grain boundaries could prevent the equiaxial crystals from growing and transforming into columnar crystals,resulting in grain refinement.The optimal ultimate tensile strength(UTS),yield strength(YS),elongation(EL)and elastic modulus of the SiC-TiC/Al-Mg-Sc-Zr composite were~394 MPa,~262 MPa,~8.2%and~86 GPa,respectively.The fracture behavior of the composites included ductile fracture of Al matrix and brittle cleavage fracture of Al_(4)SiC_(4) phases.A large number of cross-distributed acicular Al_(4)SiC_(4) bands were the main factors leading to premature failure and fracture of SiC-TiC/Al-Mg-Sc-Zr composites.展开更多

文摘As the proportion of composite materials used in aircraft continues to increase, the electromagnetic Shielding Effectiveness (SE) of these materials becomes a critical factor in the electromagnetic safety design of aircraft structures. The assessment of electromagnetic SE for Slotted Composite Structures(SCSs) is particularly challenging due to their complex geometries and there remains a lack of suitable models for accurately predicting the SE performance of these intricate configurations. To address this issue, this paper introduces SCS-Net, a Deep Neural Network (DNN) method designed to accurately predict the SE of SCS. This method considers the impacts of various structural parameters, material properties and incident wave parameters on the SE of SCSs. In order to better model the SCS, an improved Nicolson-Ross-Weir (NRW) method is introduced in this paper to provide an equivalent flat structure for the SCS and to calculate the electromagnetic parameters of the equivalent structure. Additionally, the prediction of SE via DNNs is limited by insufficient test data, which hinders support for large-sample training. To address the issue of limited measured data, this paper develops a Measurement-Computation Fusion (MCF) dataset construction method. The predictions based on the simulation results show that the proposed method maintains an error of less than 0.07 dB within the 8–10 GHz frequency range. Furthermore, a new loss function based on the weighted L1-norm is established to improve the prediction accuracy for these parameters. Compared with traditional loss functions, the new loss function reduces the maximum prediction error for equivalent electromagnetic parameters by 47%. This method significantly improves the prediction accuracy of SCS-Net for measured data, with a maximum improvement of 23.88%. These findings demonstrate that the proposed method enables precise SE prediction and design for composite structures while reducing the number of test samples needed.

文摘Integrating a heterogeneous structure can significantly enhance the strength-ductility synergy of composites.However,the relationship between hetero-deformation induced(HDI)strain hardening and dislocation activity caused by heterogeneous structures in the magnesium matrix composite remains unclear.In this study,a dual-heterogeneous TiC/AZ61 composite exhibits significantly improved plastic elongation(PEL)by nearly one time compared to uniform FG composite,meanwhile maintaining a high strength(UTS:417 MPa).This is because more severe deformation inhomogeneity in heterogeneous structure leads to more geometrically necessary dislocations(GNDs)accumulation and stronger HDI stress,resulting in higher HDI hardening compared to FG and CG composites.During the early stage of plastic deformation,the pile-up types of GND in the FG zone and CG zone are significantly different.GNDs tend to form substructures in the FG zone instead of the CG zone.They only accumulate at grain boundaries of the CG region,thereby leading to obviously increased back stress in the CG region.In the late deformation stage,the elevated HDI stress activates the new〈c+a〉dislocations in the CG region,resulting in dislocation entanglements and even the formation of substructures,further driving the high hardening in the heterogeneous composite.However,For CG composite,〈c+a〉dislocations are not activated even under large plastic strains,and only〈a〉dislocations pile up at grain boundaries and twin boundaries.Our work provides an in-depth understanding of dislocation variation and HDI hardening in heterogeneous magnesium-based composites.

Based on this assumption, to perform the maintenance and repair of aircraft composite structures, the damage of composite structures in a certain type of aircraft were investigated. The time-varying damage distribution model was established and verified based on the damage of a 16-aircraft fleet. The results show that the quantitative proportions of structural damage are 74% for skin delamination, 22% for stringer delamination and 3% for stringer-skin interface debonding. The amount of structural damages increases linearly with service time while the proportion of different damages does not change. As the service time increases, the geometric parameter distribution of damage for the same type of aircraft gradually converges, which can be approximated using the same function. There are certain differences in the proportion and geometric parameter distribution of damages among different components and locations, and the differences do not change over time.

文摘The compression and energy absorption properties of foam geopolymers increase stress wave attenuation under explosion impacts,reducing the vibration effect on the structure.Explosion tests were conducted using several composite structure models,including a concrete lining structure(CLS)without foam geopolymer and six foam geopolymer composite structures(FGCS)with different backfill parameters,to study the dynamic response and wave dissipation mechanisms of FGCS under explosive loading.Pressure,strain,and vibration responses at different locations were synchronously tested.The damage modes and dynamic responses of different models were compared,and how wave elimination and energy absorption efficiencies were affected by foam geopolymer backfill parameters was analyzed.The results showed that the foam geopolymer absorbed and dissipated the impact energy through continuous compressive deformation under high strain rates and dynamic loading,reducing the strain in the liner structure by 52%and increasing the pressure attenuation rate by 28%.Additionally,the foam geopolymer backfill reduced structural vibration and liner deformation,with the FGCS structure showing 35%less displacement and 70%less acceleration compared to the CLS.The FGCS model with thicker,less dense foam geopolymer backfill,having more pores and higher porosity,demonstrated better compression and energy absorption under dynamic impact,increasing stress wave attenuation efficiency.By analyzing the stress wave propagation and the compression characteristics of the porous medium,it was concluded that the stress transfer ratio of FGCS-ρ-579 was 77%lower than that of CLS,and the transmitted wave energy was 90%lower.The results of this study provide a scientific basis for optimizing underground composite structure interlayer parameters.

文摘The emerging interfacial polarization strategy exhibits applicative potential in piezoelectric enhancement.However,there is an ongoing effort to address the inherent limitations arising from charge bridging phenomena and stochastic interface disorder that plague the improvement of piezoelectric performance.Here,we report a dual structure reinforced MXene/PVDF-TrFE piezoelectric composite,whose piezoelectricity is enhanced under the coupling effect of interfacial polarization and structural design.Synergistically,molecular dynamics simulations,density functional theory calculations and experimental validation revealed the details of interfacial interactions,which promotes the net spontaneous polarization of PVDF-TrFE from the 0.56 to 31.41 Debye.The oriented MXene distribution and porous structure not only tripled the piezoelectric response but also achieved an eightfold increase in sensitivity within the low-pressure region,along with demonstrating cyclic stability exceeding 20,000 cycles.The properties reinforcement originating from dual structure is elucidated through the finite element simulation and experimental validation.Attributed to the excellent piezoelectric response and deep learning algorithm,the sensor can effectively recognize the signals of artery pulse and finger flexion.Finally,a 3×3 sensor array is fabricated to monitor the pressure distribution wirelessly.This study provides an innovative methodology for reinforcing interfacial polarized piezoelectric materials and insight into structural designs.

文摘Flow boiling in open microchannels offers highly efficient heat transfer performance and has attracted increasing attention in the fields of heat transfer and thermalmanagement of electronic devices in recent years.However,the continuous rise in power density of electronic components imposesmore stringent requirements on the heat transfer capability of microchannel flow boiling.HFE-7100,a dielectric coolant with favorable thermophysical properties,has become a focal point of research for enhancing flow boiling performance in open microchannels.The flow boiling heat transfer performance ofHFE-7100 was investigated in this study by fabricating micro-nano composite structures on the bottom surface of open microchannels using laser ablation technology.Based on visualization results,a comparative analysis was conducted on the bubble dynamics and flow pattern characteristics of HFE-7100 flow boiling in micronano structured open microchannels(MNSOMC)and smooth-surface open microchannels(SSOMC),to elucidate the enhancement mechanism of micro-nano structures on flow boiling heat transfer in open microchannels.The results indicate that the surface structures and strong wettability of MNSOMC accelerated bubble nucleation and departure.Moreover,bubbles in the channel tended to coalesce along the flow direction,forming elongated slug bubbles with high aspect ratios,which enabled efficient thin film evaporation in conjunction with intense nucleate boiling,thereby significantly enhancing flow boiling heat transfer.Under the experimental conditions of this study,the maximum enhancements in the heat transfer coefficient(HTC)and critical heat flux(CHF)of HFE-7100 inMNSOMC were 33.4%and 133.1%,respectively,with the CHF reaching up to 1542.3 kW⋅m^(−2).Furthermore,due to the superior wettability and capillary wicking capability of the micro-nano composite structures,the significant enhancement in flow boiling heat transfer was achieved without incurring a noticeable pressure drop penalty.

文摘In order to obtain high-density dual-scale ceramic particles(8.5 wt.%SiC+1.5 wt.%TiC)reinforced Al-Mg Sc-Zr composites with uniform microstructure,50 nm TiC and 7μm SiC particles were pre-dispersed into 15−53μm aluminum alloy powders by low-speed ball milling and mechanical mixing technology,respectively.Then,the effects of laser energy density,power and scanning rate on the density of the composites were investigated based on selective laser melting(SLM)technology.The effect of micron-sized SiC and nano-sized TiC particles on solidification structure,mechanical properties and fracture behaviors of the composites was revealed and analyzed in detail.Interfacial reaction and phase variations in the composites with varying reinforced particles were emphatically considered.Results showed that SiC-TiC particles could significantly improve forming quality and density of the SLMed composites,and the optimal relative density was up to 100%.In the process of laser melting,a strong chemical reaction occurs between SiC and aluminum matrix,and micron-scale acicular Al_(4)SiC_(4) bands were formed in situ.There was no interfacial reaction between TiC particles and aluminum matrix.TiC/Al semi-coherent interface had good bonding strength.Pinning effect of TiC particles in grain boundaries could prevent the equiaxial crystals from growing and transforming into columnar crystals,resulting in grain refinement.The optimal ultimate tensile strength(UTS),yield strength(YS),elongation(EL)and elastic modulus of the SiC-TiC/Al-Mg-Sc-Zr composite were~394 MPa,~262 MPa,~8.2%and~86 GPa,respectively.The fracture behavior of the composites included ductile fracture of Al matrix and brittle cleavage fracture of Al_(4)SiC_(4) phases.A large number of cross-distributed acicular Al_(4)SiC_(4) bands were the main factors leading to premature failure and fracture of SiC-TiC/Al-Mg-Sc-Zr composites.

文摘To assess the high-temperature creep properties of titanium matrix composites for aircraft skin,the TA15 alloy,TiB/TA15 and TiB/(TA15−Si)composites with network structure were fabricated using low-energy milling and vacuum hot pressing sintering techniques.The results show that introducing TiB and Si can reduce the steady-state creep rate by an order of magnitude at 600℃ compared to the alloy.However,the beneficial effect of Si can be maintained at 700℃ while the positive effect of TiB gradually diminishes due to the pores near TiB and interface debonding.The creep deformation mechanism of the as-sintered TiB/(TA15−Si)composite is primarily governed by dislocation climbing.The high creep resistance at 600℃ can be mainly attributed to the absence of grain boundaryαphases,load transfer by TiB whisker,and the hindrance of dislocation movement by silicides.The low steady-state creep rate at 700℃ is mainly resulted from the elimination of grain boundaryαphases as well as increased dynamic precipitation of silicides andα_(2).

文摘Bioinspired nacre-like structured high-density soft magnetic composites(SMCs)have been successfully constructed using flaky-Fe_(73.8)Si_(13.5)B_(8.7)Cu_(1)Nb_(3) powders in the supercooled liquid region(SCLR).These densely arranged particles with a consistent planar orientation significantly enhance the soft magnetic properties of SMCs,including high permeability and low magnetic losses.The internal structures of the composites and microstructure evolution of the flaky nanocrystalline particles during the hot-pressing process have been thoroughly studied.Moreover,systematic investigations into the effects of coatings and particle sizes on the maximum permeability and magnetic losses of the composites are conducted.The SMC prepared using the coated particles with a size of 0-100μm exhibits a high maximum perme-ability of 2170(at 1000 Hz)and low magnetic loss of 41.61 W kg^(-1)(at 1000 Hz and 1.0 T).The losses and permeability analysis reveal that the superior performance of these soft magnetic materials is attributed to their laminated structure,insulation coating,and the reduced planar demagnetizing factor.Compared to the traditional silicon steel,this novel SMCs exhibits high magnetic permeability and reduced magnetic losses at frequencies above 1000 Hz,which possess immense application potential within high-frequency electric machines.

文摘This paper presents a deep learning-based topology optimization method for the joint design of material layout and fiber orientation in continuous fiber-reinforced composite structure(CFRCS).The proposed method mainly includes three steps:(1)a ResUNet-involved generative and adversarial network(ResUNet-GAN)is developed to establish the end-to-end mapping from structural design parameters to fiber-reinforced composite optimized structure,and a fiber orientation chromatogram is presented to represent continuous fiber angles;(2)to avoid the local optimum problem,the independent continuous mapping method(ICM method)considering the improved principal stress orientation interpolated continuous fiber angle optimization(PSO-CFAO)strategy is utilized to construct CFRCS topology optimization dataset;(3)the well-trained ResUNet-GAN is deployed to design the optimal structural material distribution together with the corresponding continuous fiber orientations.Numerical simulations for benchmark structure verify that the proposed method greatly improves the design efficiency of CFRCS along with high design accuracy.Furthermore,the CFRCS topology configuration designed by ResUNet-GAN is fabricated by additive manufacturing.Compression experiments of the specimens show that both the stiffness structure and peak load of the CFRCS topology configuration designed by the proposed method have significantly enhanced.The proposed deep learning-based topology optimization method will provide great flexibility in CFRCS for engineering applications.

文摘The stability of the“surrounding rock-backfill”com posite system is crucial for the safety of mining stopes.This study systematically investigates the effects of steel slag(SS)content and interface angle on the strength and failure characteristics of rock and SS-cemented paste backfill composite specimens(RBCS)through uniaxial compression strength tests(UCS),acoustic emission systems(AE),and 3 D digital image correlation monitoring technology(3 D-DIC).The intrinsic mechanism by which SS content influences the strength of SS-CPB was revealed through an analysis of its hydration reaction degree and microstructural characteristics under varying SS content.Moreover,a theoretical strength model incorporating different interface angles was developed to explore the impact of interface inclination on failure modes and mechanical strength.The main conclusions are as follows:The incorporation of SS enhances the plastic characteristics of RBCS and reduces its brittleness,with the increase of SS content,the stress-strain curve of RBCS in the“staircase-like”stag e becomes smoother;When the interface angle is 45°,the RBCS stress-strain curve exhibits a bimodal feature,and the failure mode changes from Y-shaped fractures to interface and axial splitting;The addition of SS results in a reduction of hydration products such as Ca(OH)_(2) in the backfill cementing system and an increase in harmful pores,which weakens the bonding performance and strength of RBCS,and the SS content should not exceed 45%;As the interface angle increases,the strength of RBCS decreases,and the critical interface slip angle decreases first and then increases with the increase in the E S/E R ratio.This study provides technical references for the large-scale application of SS in mine backfill.

文摘Interlayer friction stir processing(FSP)has been proved to be an efective method of enhancing the mechanical properties of wire arc-directed energy deposited(WA-DED)samples.However,the original deposition structure was still retained in the FSP-WA-DED component besides the processed zone(PZ),thus forming a composite structure.Considering the material utilization and practical service process of the deposited component,more attention should be paid on this special composite structure,but the relevant investigation has not been carried out.In this study,an Al–Mg–Sc alloy was prepared by WA-DED with interlayer FSP treatment,and the composite structure was frstly investigated.Almost all of the pores were eliminated under the pressure efect from the tool shoulder.The grains were further refned with an average size of about 1.2μm in the PZ.Though no severe plastic deformation was involved in the retained WA-DED deposition zone,comparable tensile properties with the PZ sample were obtained in the composite structure.Low ultimate tensile strength(UTS)of 289 MPa and elongation of 3.2%were achieved in the WA-DED sample.After interlayer FSP treatment,the UTS and elongation of the PZ samples were signifcantly increased to 443 MPa and 16.3%,while those in the composite structure remained at relatively high levels of 410 MPa and 13.5%,respectively.Meanwhile,a high fatigue strength of 180 and 130 MPa was obtained in the PZ and composite structure samples,which was clearly higher than that of the WA-DED sample(100 MPa).It is concluded that the defects in traditional WA-DED process can be eliminated in the composite structure after interlayer FSP treatment,resulting in enhanced tensile and fatigue properties,which provides an efective method of improving the mechanical properties of the WA-DED sample.

文摘The connection efficiency of composite pre-tightened multi-tooth joint is low because of uneven load distribution and single load transmission path.In this paper,based on the principle of bio-tooth(suture)structure,combining soft material with fractal,a composite pre-tightened multi-hierarchy tooth joint is proposed,and the bearing performance and failure process of the joint through experiments and finite element method under tensile load.First,the ultimate bearing capacity,load distribution ratio,and failure process of different hierarchies of teeth joints are studied through experiments.Then,the progressive damage models of different hierarchies of tooth joints are established,and experiments verify the validity of the finite element model.Finally,the effects of soft material and increasing tooth hierarchy on the failure process and bearing capacity of composite pre-tightened tooth joints are analyzed by the finite element method.The following conclusions can be drawn:(1)The embedding of soft materials changed the failure process of the joint.Increasing the tooth hierarchy can give the joint more load transfer paths,but the failure process of the joint is complicated.(2)Embedding soft materials and increasing the tooth hierarchy simultaneously can effectively improve the bearing capacity of composite pre-tightened tooth joints,which is 87.8%higher than that of traditional three-tooth joints.

文摘Current research on the fabrication of rolled composite plates primarily focuses on processing and bonding mechanisms.Compared with hot-rolling technology,the electrically assisted rolling process has demonstrated excellent performance in interfacial bonding effects.However,the influence of different current loading modes on the interfacial recombination process of composite panels varies significantly.In this study,low-frequency electrically assisted rolling was used in the first pass to pre-bond a composite plate at a low reduction rate of 15%.High-frequency electrically assisted rolling was used during the second pass,and Al/Mg alloy composite plates were obtained.The interfacial microstructure and mechanical properties of the composite plate were coordinated regulation by designing the rolling reduction rate.The results showed the interfacial morphology of the alternating distribution of the melt-diffusion layer,diffusion layer,and the formation of a new Al/Mg bonding interface.At the melt-diffusion interface,the irregular intermetallic compounds(IMCs)and the new Al/Mg bonding interface were alternately distributed,and the IMCs contained theα-Mg,Mg17Al12,and Mg2Al3 phases.In addition,an extremely high shear strength of 78.26 MPa was achieved.Adhesion of the Mg alloy matrix was observed on the fracture surface of the Al alloy side.The high shear strength was mainly attributed to the formation of a unique interfacial structure and the appearance of a melt-diffusion layer.Compared to the diffusion-reduction interface,the regular rectangular IMCs and the new Al/Mg bonding interface were alternately distributed,and the IMCs consisted of the Mg17Al12 and Mg2Al3 phases.The shear test results showed that the shear strength of the interface reached 68.69 MPa,and a regular distribution of the Mg alloy matrix with dimples and the Al alloy matrix with a necking zone was observed on the fracture surface of the Al side.Tensile strength test results revealed a maximum value of 316.86 MPa for the Al/Mg alloy composite plate.The tensile and interfacial bonding strengths can be synchronously enhanced by coordinating the regulation of the interfacial structure.This study proposes a new electrically assisted rolling technology that is useful for the fabrication of composite plates with excellent mechanical properties.

文摘Metallic glass matrix composites(BMGCs)with compositions of[(Zr_(0.5)Cu_(0.5))_(0.925)Al_(0.07)Sn_(0.005)]_(100-x)Ta_(x)(atomic fraction,%,x=3,5,7)were successfully prepared via dealloying in metallic melt.The reinforcing phase in these alloys has core-shell hybrid structure with Ta-rich particles as core and B2-CuZr as shell.In this method,the dealloyed Ta from Zr-Ta pre-alloys maintained in solid state and aggregated to form the fine Ta-rich phase in the final products.This effectively decreases the size of Ta-rich phase compared with that prepared via conventional arc-melting,where the Ta-rich phase was formed through dissolving and precipitation.Among the three compositions,[(Zr_(0.5)Cu_(0.5))_(0.925)Al_(0.07)Sn_(0.005)]_(95)Ta_(5) showed the highest plastic strain of 11.2%,much higher than that of the arc-melted counterparts(4.3%).Such improvement in mechanical properties was related with the refined core-shell hybrid reinforcing structure,which could hinder the rapid propagation of main shear band more efficiently and cause them to branch and proliferate at the interface.

文摘1060/7050 Al/Al laminated metal composites(LMCs)with heterogeneous lamellar structures were prepared by accumulative roll bonding(ARB),cold rolling and subsequent annealing treatment.The strengthening mechanism was investigated by microstructural characterization,mechanical property tests and in-situ fracture morphology observations.The results show that microstructural differences between the constituent layers are present in the Al/Al LMCs after various numbers of ARB cycles.Compared with rolled 2560-layered Al/Al LMCs with 37.5%and 50.0%rolling reductions,those with 62.5%rolling reductions allow for more effective improvements in the mechanical properties after annealing treatment due to their relatively high mechanical incompatibility across the interface.During tensile deformation,with the increased magnitude of incompatibility in the 2560-layered Al/Al LMC with a heterogeneous lamellar structure,the densities of the geometrically necessary dislocations(GNDs)increase to accommodate the relatively large strain gradient,resulting in considerable back stress strengthening and improved mechanical properties.

文摘Controlled photocatalytic conversion of CO_(2) into premium fuel such as methane(CH4)offers a sustainable pathway towards a carbon energy cycle.However,the photocatalytic efficiency and selectivity are still unsatisfactory due to the limited availability of active sites on the current photocatalysts.To resolve this issue,the design of oxygen vacancies(OVs)in metal-oxide semiconductors is an effective option.Herein,in situ deposition of TiO_(2) onto SiO_(2) nanospheres to construct a SiO_(2)@TiO_(2) core-shell structure was performed to modulate the oxygen vacancy concentrations.Meanwhile,charge redistribution led to the formation of abundant OV-regulated Ti-Ti(Ti-OV-Ti)dual sites.It is revealed that Ti-OV-Ti dual sites served as the key active site for capturing the photogenerated electrons during light-driven CO_(2) reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR).Such electron-rich active sites enabled efficient CO_(2) adsorption and activation,thus lowering the energy barrier associated with the rate-determining step.More importantly,the formation of a highly stable*CHO intermediate at Ti-OV-Ti dual sites energetically favored the reaction pathway towards the production of CH4 rather than CO,thereby facilitating the selective product of CH_(4).As a result,SiO_(2)@TiO_(2)-50 with an optimized oxygen vacancy concentration of 9.0% showed a remarkable selectivity(90.32%)for CH_(4) production with a rate of 13.21μmol g^(-1) h^(-1),which is 17.38-fold higher than that of pristine TiO_(2).This study provides a new avenue for engineering superior photocatalysts through a rational methodology towards selective reduction of CO_(2).
