However, the photodetection performance of self-powered QD devices is still limited by their unfavorable charge carrier dynamics due to their intrinsically discrete charge carrier transport process. Herein, we strategically constructed semiconducting matrix in QD film to achieve efficient charge transfer and extraction.The p-type semiconducting CuSCN was selected as energy-aligned matrix to match the n-type colloidal PbS QDs that was used as proof-of-concept. Note that the PbS QD/CuSCN matrix not only enables efficient charge carrier separation and transfer at nano-interfaces but also provides continuous charge carrier transport pathways that are different from the hoping process in neat QD film, resulting in improved charge mobility and derived collection efficiency. As a result, the target structure delivers high specific detectivity of 4.38 × 10^(12)Jones and responsivity of 782 mA/W at 808 nm, which is superior than that of the PbS QD-only photodetector(4.66 × 10^(11)Jones and 338 mA/W). This work provides a new structure candidate for efficient colloidal QD based optoelectronic devices.展开更多

文摘The rapid advancement of flexible electronics technology has placed higher demands on the structural design and performance regulation of elastic materials.Cellulosic elastomers,with their biodegradability,renewability,and tunability,emerge as ideal candidate materials.Entropy-driven self-as sembly promotes the spontaneous formation of ordered structures,serving as a crucial pathway for optimizing cellulose elastomer properties.However,the structure-property relationship between the self-assembled ordered structures of cellulose elastomers and their mechanical and electrical properties remains insufficiently explored.It hinders the expansion of their applications in electronic devices.This paper systematically reviews the structure-property regulation mechanisms of self-assembled cellulosic elastomers from an entropy-driven perspective.It elucidates the application principles and performance optimization strategies for mechanical energy harvesting and self-powered sensing,while also exploring the challenges and prospects for performance enhancement.This work provides a reference for the development of self-assembled cellulosic elastomers in the field of energy devices.

文摘Advanced healthcare monitors for air pollution applications pose a significant challenge in achieving a balance between high-performance filtration and multifunctional smart integration.Electrospinning triboelectric nanogenerators(TENG)provide a significant potential for use under such difficult circumstances.We have successfully constructed a high-performance TENG utilizing a novel multi-scale nanofiber architecture.Nylon 66(PA66)and chitosan quaternary ammonium salt(HACC)composites were prepared by electrospinning,and PA66/H multiscale nanofiber membranes composed of nanofibers(≈73 nm)and submicron-fibers(≈123 nm)were formed.PA66/H multi-scale nanofiber membrane as the positive electrode and negative electrode-spun PVDF-HFP nanofiber membrane composed of respiration-driven PVDF-HFP@PA66/H TENG.The resulting PVDF-HFP@PA66/H TENG based air filter utilizes electrostatic adsorption and physical interception mechanisms,achieving PM_(0.3)filtration efficiency over 99%with a pressure drop of only 48 Pa.Besides,PVDF-HFP@PA66/H TENG exhibits excellent stability in high-humidity environments,with filtration efficiency reduced by less than 1%.At the same time,the TENG achieves periodic contact separation through breathing drive to achieve self-power,which can ensure the long-term stability of the filtration efficiency.In addition to the air filtration function,TENG can also monitor health in real time by capturing human breathing signals without external power supply.This integrated system combines high-efficiency air filtration,self-powered operation,and health monitoring,presenting an innovative solution for air purification,smart protective equipment,and portable health monitoring.These findings highlight the potential of this technology for diverse applications,offering a promising direction for advancing multifunctional air filtration systems.

文摘Quantum dot(QD)-based infrared photodetector is a promising technology that can implement current monitoring,imaging and optical communication in the infrared region. However, the photodetection performance of self-powered QD devices is still limited by their unfavorable charge carrier dynamics due to their intrinsically discrete charge carrier transport process. Herein, we strategically constructed semiconducting matrix in QD film to achieve efficient charge transfer and extraction.The p-type semiconducting CuSCN was selected as energy-aligned matrix to match the n-type colloidal PbS QDs that was used as proof-of-concept. Note that the PbS QD/CuSCN matrix not only enables efficient charge carrier separation and transfer at nano-interfaces but also provides continuous charge carrier transport pathways that are different from the hoping process in neat QD film, resulting in improved charge mobility and derived collection efficiency. As a result, the target structure delivers high specific detectivity of 4.38 × 10^(12)Jones and responsivity of 782 mA/W at 808 nm, which is superior than that of the PbS QD-only photodetector(4.66 × 10^(11)Jones and 338 mA/W). This work provides a new structure candidate for efficient colloidal QD based optoelectronic devices.

文摘Self-powered neutron detectors(SPNDs)play a critical role in monitoring the safety margins and overall health of reactors,directly affecting safe operation within the reactor.In this work,a novel fault identification method based on graph convolutional networks(GCN)and Stacking ensemble learning is proposed for SPNDs.The GCN is employed to extract the spatial neighborhood information of SPNDs at different positions,and residuals are obtained by nonlinear fitting of SPND signals.In order to completely extract the time-varying features from residual sequences,the Stacking fusion model,integrated with various algorithms,is developed and enables the identification of five conditions for SPNDs:normal,drift,bias,precision degradation,and complete failure.The results demonstrate that the integration of diverse base-learners in the GCN-Stacking model exhibits advantages over a single model as well as enhances the stability and reliability in fault identification.Additionally,the GCN-Stacking model maintains higher accuracy in identifying faults at different reactor power levels.

文摘β-Ga_(2)O_(3),as one of the important 4th generation semiconductors,is widely used in solar-blind ultraviolet(UV)detectors with a short detection range of 200-280 nm benefiting from its ultra-wide bandgap,strong radiation resistance,and excellent chemical and thermal stabilities.Here,a self-powered photodetector(PD)based on an Ag/β-Ga_(2)O_(3) Schottky heterojunction was designed and fabricated.Through a subtle design of electrodes,the pyro-phototronic effect was discovered,which can be coupled to the common photovoltaic effect and further enhance the performance of the PD.Compared to traditional Ga_(2)O_(3)-based PD,the as-used PD exhibited a self-driving property and a broadband response beyond the bandgap lim-itations,ranging from 200 nm(deep UV)to 980 nm(infrared).Moreover,the photoresponse time was greatly shrunk owing to the coupling effect.Under laser irradiation,with a wavelength of 450 nm and a power density of 8 mW cm-2,the photocurrent could be improved by around 41 times compared with the sole photovoltaic effect.Besides,the performances of the Schottky PD were enhanced at both high and low temperatures.The device also possessed long-term working stability.This paper not only re-veals basic physics lying in the 4th generation semiconductor Ga_(2)O_(3) but also sheds light on the multi-encryption transmission of light information using this PD.

文摘Recently,self-powered ultraviolet photodetectors(UV PDs)based on SnO_(2)have gained increasing interest due to its feature of working continuously without the need for external power sources.Nevertheless,the production of the majority of these existing UV PDs necessitates additional manufacturing stages or intricate processes.In this work,we present a facile,cost-effective approach for the fabrication of a self-powered UV PD based on p-Si/n-SnO_(2)junction.The self-powered device was achieved simply by integrating a p-Si substrate with a n-type SnO_(2)microbelt,which was synthesized via the chemical vapor deposition(CVD)method.The high-quality feature,coupled with the belt-like shape of the SnO_(2)microbelt enables the favorable contact between the n-type SnO_(2)and p-type silicon.The built-in electric field created at the interface endows the self-powered performance of the device.The p-Si/n-SnO_(2)junction photodetector demonstrated a high responsivity(0.12 mA/W),high light/dark current ratio(>103),and rapid response speed at zero bias.This method offers a practical way to develop cost-effective and high-performance self-powered UV PDs.

文摘The rise of smart wearable devices has driven the demand for flexible,high-performance optoelectronic devices with low power and easy high-density integration.Emerging Two-dimensional(2D)materials offer promising solutions.However,the use of 3D metal in traditional 2D devices often leads to Fermi-level pinning,compromising device performance.2D metallic materials,such as graphene and 2H-phase NbSe_(2),present a new avenue for addressing this issue and constructing high-performance,low-power photodetectors.In this work,we designed an all-2D asymmetric contacts photodetector using Gr and NbSe_(2)as electrodes for the 2D semiconductor WSe_(2).The asymmetric Schottky barriers and built-in electric fields facilitated by this architecture resulted in outstanding photovoltaic characteristics and self-powered photodetection.Under zero bias,the device exhibited a responsivity of 287 mA/W,a specific detectivity of 5.3×10^(11)Jones,and an external quantum efficiency of 88%.It also demonstrated an ultra-high light on/offratio(1.8×10^(5)),ultra-fast photoresponse speeds(80/72μs),broad-spectrum responsiveness(405980 nm),and exceptional cycling stability.The applications of the Gr/WSe_(2)/NbSe_(2)heterojunction in imaging and infrared optical communication have been explored,underscoring its significant potential.This work offers an idea to construct all-2D ultrathin optoelectronic devices.

文摘The in-core self-powered neutron detector(SPND)acts as a key measuring device for the monitoring of parameters and evaluation of the operating conditions of nuclear reactors.Prompt detection and tolerance of faulty SPNDs are indispensable for reliable reactor management.To completely extract the correlated state information of SPNDs,we constructed a twin model based on a generalized regression neural network(GRNN)that represents the common relationships among overall signals.Faulty SPNDs were determined because of the functional concordance of the twin model and real monitoring sys-tems,which calculated the error probability distribution between the model outputs and real values.Fault detection follows a tolerance phase to reinforce the stability of the twin model in the case of massive failures.A weighted K-nearest neighbor model was employed to reasonably reconstruct the values of the faulty signals and guarantee data purity.The experimental evaluation of the proposed method showed promising results,with excellent output consistency and high detection accuracy for both single-and multiple-point faulty SPNDs.For unexpected excessive failures,the proposed tolerance approach can efficiently repair fault behaviors and enhance the prediction performance of the twin model.

文摘Metal-halide perovskites are revolutionizing the world of X-ray detectors,due to the development of sensitive,fast,and cost-effective devices.Self-powered operation,ensuring portability and low power consumption,has also been recently demonstrated in both bulk materials and thin films.However,the signal stability and repeatability under continuous X-ray exposure has only been tested up to a few hours,often reporting degradation of the detection performance.Here it is shown that self-powered direct X-ray detectors,fabricated starting from a FAPbBr_(3)submicrometer-thick film deposition onto a mesoporous TiO_(2)scaffold,can withstand a 26-day uninterrupted X-ray exposure with negligible signal loss,demonstrating ultra-high operational stability and excellent repeatability.No structural modification is observed after irradiation with a total ionizing dose of almost 200 Gy,revealing an unexpectedly high radiation hardness for a metal-halide perovskite thin film.In addition,trap-assisted photoconductive gain enabled the device to achieve a record bulk sensitivity of 7.28 C Gy^(−1)cm^(−3)at 0 V,an unprecedented value in the field of thin-film-based photoconductors and photodiodes for“hard”X-rays.Finally,prototypal validation under the X-ray beam produced by a medical linear accelerator for cancer treatment is also introduced.

文摘Self-regulating heating and self-powered flexibility are pivotal for future wearable devices.However,the low energy-conversion rate of wearable devices at low temperatures limits their application in plateaus and other environments.This study introduces an azopolymer with remarkable semicrystallinity and reversible photoinduced solid-liquid transition ability that is obtained through copolymerization of azoben-zene(Azo)monomers and styrene.A composite of one such copolymer with an Azo:styrene molar ratio of 9:1(copolymer is denoted as PAzo9:1-co-polystyrene(PS))and nylon fabrics(NFs)is prepared(composite is denoted as PAzo9:1-co-PS@NF).PAzo9:1-co-PS@NF exhibits hydrophobicity and high wear resistance.Moreover,it shows good responsiveness(0.624 s^(−1))during isomerization under solid ultraviolet(UV)light(365 nm)with an energy density of 70.6 kJ kg^(−1).In addition,the open-circuit voltage,short-circuit current and quantity values of PAzo9:1-co-PS@NF exhibit small variations in a temperature range of−20℃ to 25℃ and remain at 170 V,5 μA,and 62 nC,respectively.Notably,the involved NFs were cut and sewn into gloves to be worn on a human hand model.When the model was exposed to both UV radiation and friction,the temperature of the finger coated with PAzo9:1-co-PS was approximately 6.0°C higher than that of the other parts.Therefore,developing triboelectric nanogenerators based on the in situ photothermal cycles of Azo in wearable devices is important to develop low-temperature self-regulating heating and self-powered flexible devices for extreme environments.

文摘Belt conveyors are extensively utilized in mining and power industries.In a typical coal mine conveyor system,coal is transported over distances exceeding 2 km,involving more than 20000 idlers,which far exceeds a reasonable manual inspection capacity.Given that idlers typically have a lifespan of 1-2 years,there is an urgent need for a rapid,cost-effective,and intelligent safety monitoring system.However,current embedded systems face prohibitive replacement costs,while conventional monitoring technologies suffer from inefficiency at low rotational speeds and lack systematic structural optimization frameworks for diverse idler types and parameters.To address these challenges,this paper introduces an integrated,on-site detachable self-powered idler condition monitoring system(ICMS).This system combines energy harvesting based on the magnetic modulation technology with wireless condition monitoring capabilities.Specifically,it develops a data-driven model integrating convolutional neural networks(CNNs) with genetic algorithms(GAs).The conventional testing results show that the data-driven model not only significantly accelerates the parameter response time,but also achieves a prediction accuracy of 92.95%.The in-situ experiments conducted in coal mines demonstrate the system's reliability and monitoring functionality under both no-load and fullload conditions.This research provides an innovative self-powered condition monitoring solution and develops an efficient data-driven model,offering feasible online monitoring approaches for smart mine construction.

文摘Semiconductor micro/nanostructures with broad bandgap can provide powerful candidates for fabricating ultraviolet photodetectors(PDs)due to their proper bandgap,unique optoelectronic properties,large surface-to-volume ratio and good integration.However,semiconducting micro/nanostructures suffer from low electron conductivity and abundant surface defects,which greatly limits their practical application in developing PDs.In this work,an ultraviolet PD consisting of single Ga-doped ZnO microwire(ZnO:Ga MW)and p-type poly(3,4 ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS)was designed.When exposed to ultraviolet illumination,the PD exhibits excellent performance(responsivity~185 m A/W,detectivity~2.4×10^(11) Jones,and fast response speed of~212μs for rise time and~387μs for decay time)under self-driven conditions.Compared with that of an undoped Zn O MWbased PD,the responsivity and detectivity of ZnO:Ga MW/PEDOT:PSS PD are significantly enhanced over 400%and 600%,respectively.Due to the incorporation of Ga element,the charge transport properties of a ZnO:Ga MW,specifically for the mobility,are effectively enhanced,which can substantially facilitate the generation,separation,transport and harvest efficiency of photo-generated carriers in the asfabricated PD.Besides,the Ga-incorporation improves the crystalline quality of MWs and reduces surface state density,further suggesting a high-quality ZnO:Ga MW/PEDOT:PSS heterojunction.This work provides a potential approach for designing high-performance self-powered ultraviolet PDs from the aspect of enhancing carrier transport through fine doping.

文摘Heterojunction is regarded as a crucial step toward realizing high-performance devices,particularly,forming gradient energy band between heterojunctions benefits self-powered photodetectors.Therefore,in this paper,the synthesis of CsPbI3 nanorods(NRs)and its application as the interfacial layer in high-performance,all-solution-processed self-powered photodetectors are presented.For the bilayer photodetector ITO/ZnO(100 nm)/PbS-TBAI(150 nm)/Au,a responsivity of 3.6 A/W with a specific detectivity of 9.8×10^(12)Jones was obtained under 0.1 mW/cm^(2)white light illumination at zero bias(i.e.in self-powered mode).Meanwhile,the photocurrent was enhanced to an On/Off current ratio of 105 at zero bias with an open circuit voltage of 0.53 V for trilayer photodetector ITO/ZnO(100 nm)/PbSTBAI(150 nm)/CsPbI3(250 nm)/Au,in which the CsPbI3 NRs layer works as the interfacial layer.As a result,a specific detectivity of 4.5×10^(13)Jones with a responsivity of 11.12 A/W was obtained under0.1 mW/cm^(2) white light illumination,as well as the rising/decaying time of 0.57 s/0.41 s with excellent stability and reproducibility upto four weeks in air.The enhanced-performance is ascribed to the mismatch bandgap between PbS-TBAI/CsPbI_(3)interface,which can suppress the carrier recombination and provide efficient transport passages for charge carriers.Thus,it provides a feasible and efficient method for high-performance photodetectors.
