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Surface engineering plays a crucial role in improving the performance of high energy materials,and polydopamine(PDA)is widely used in the field of energetic materials for surface modification and functionalization.In order to obtain high-quality HMX@PDA-based PBX explosives with high sphericity and a narrow particle size distribution,composite microspheres were prepared using co-axial droplet microfluidic technology.The formation mechanism,thermal behavior,mechanical sensitivity,electrostatic spark sensitivity,compressive strength,and combustion performance of the microspheres were investigated.The results show that PDA can effectively enhance the interfacial interaction between the explosive particles and the binder under the synergistic effect of chemical bonds and the physical"mechanical interlocking"structure.Interface reinforcement causes the thermal decomposition temperature of the sample microspheres to move to a higher temperature,with the sensitivity to impact,friction,and electrostatic sparks(for S-1)increasing by 12.5%,31.3%,and 81.5%respectively,and the compressive strength also increased by 30.7%,effectively enhancing the safety performance of the microspheres.Therefore,this study provides an effective and universal strategy for preparing high-quality functional explosives,and also provides some reference for the safe use of energetic materials in practical applications.

文摘In this work,the generation of high signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)single-frequency microwave signal without noise sidebands is demonstrated based on the interaction of integrated all-fiber lasers.The microwave signals are generated by the interference between a narrow linewidth Brillouin pump light from a single-frequency laser and the Stokes light generated by it.Firstly,the linewidths of the Stokes lights are compressed to~43 Hz based on the stimulated Brillouin scattering(SBS)effect,which ensures that the frequency noise is as low as possible.And then,the relative intensity noise(RIN)of the first order Stokes light is reduced by 21 dB/Hz based on the noise dynamics principle in cascaded SBS effect.By simultaneously reducing the frequency noise and the intensity noise of the coherent signals,the noise sidebands of microwave signals are completely suppressed.As result,the SNR of the microwave signal is improved from 48 dB to 84 dB at the first-order Brillouin frequency shift of 9.415 GHz.Meanwhile,a microwave signal with a SNR of 70 dB is generated at the second-order Brillouin frequency shift of 18.827 GHz.This kind of microwave signals with narrow linewidth and high SNR can provide higher detection resolution and higher transmission efficiency for applications on radar,satellite communication and so on.

文摘Two-dimensional perovskite ferroelectric which strongly couple ferroelectricity with semiconducting properties are promising candidates for optoelectronic applications.However,it is still a great challenge to fabricate self-powered broadband photodetectors with low detection limit.Herein,we successfully realized self-powered broadband photodetection with low detection limit by using a trilayered perovskite ferroelectric(BA)_(2)EA_(2)Pb_(3)I_(10)(1,BA=n-butylamine,EA=ethylamine).Giving to its large spontaneous polarization(5.6μC/cm^(2)),1 exhibits an open-circuit voltage of 0.25 V which provide driving force to separate carriers.Combining with its low dark current(~10^(-14)A)and narrow bandgap(Eg=1.86 e V),1 demonstrates great potential on detecting the broadband weak lights.Thus,a prominent photodetection performance with high open-off ratio(~10^(5)),outstanding responsivity(>10 m A/W),and promising detectivity(>1011Jones),as well as the low detecting limit(~nW/cm^(2))among the wide wavelength from 377 nm to637 nm was realized based on the single crystal of 1.This work demonstrates the great potential of 2D perovskite ferroelectric on self-powered broadband photodetectors.

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.
