Under hydrothermal and solvothermal conditions,two novel cobalt-based complexes,{[Co_(2)(CIA)(OH)(1,4-dtb)]·3.2H_(2)O}n(HU23)and{[Co_(2)(CIA)(OH)(1,4-dib)]·3.5H2O·DMF}n(HU24),were successfully construct...Under hydrothermal and solvothermal conditions,two novel cobalt-based complexes,{[Co_(2)(CIA)(OH)(1,4-dtb)]·3.2H_(2)O}n(HU23)and{[Co_(2)(CIA)(OH)(1,4-dib)]·3.5H2O·DMF}n(HU24),were successfully constructed by coordinatively assembling the semi-rigid multidentate ligand 5-(1-carboxyethoxy)isophthalic acid(H₃CIA)with the Nheterocyclic ligands 1,4-di(4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)benzene(1,4-dtb)and 1,4-di(1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzene(1,4-dib),respectively,around Co^(2+)ions.Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that in both complexes HU23 and HU24,the CIA^(3-)anions adopt aκ^(7)-coordination mode,bridging six Co^(2+)ions via their five carboxylate oxygen atoms and one ether oxygen atom.This linkage forms tetranuclear[Co4(μ3-OH)2]^(6+)units.These Co-oxo cluster units were interconnected by CIA^(3-)anions to assemble into 2D kgd-type structures featuring a 3,6-connected topology.The 2D layers were further connected by 1,4-dtb and 1,4-dib,resulting in 3D pillar-layered frameworks for HU23 and HU24.Notably,despite the similar configurations of 1,4-dtb and 1,4-dib,differences in their coordination spatial orientations lead to topological divergence in the 3D frameworks of HU23 and HU24.Topological analysis indicates that the frameworks of HU23 and HU24 can be simplified into a 3,10-connected net(point symbol:(4^(10).6^(3).8^(2))(4^(3))_(2))and a 3,8-connected tfz-d net(point symbol:(4^(3))_(2)((4^(6).6^(18).8^(4)))),respectively.This structural differentiation confirms the precise regulatory role of ligands on the topology of metal-organic frameworks.Moreover,the ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra confirmed that HU23 and HU24 have strong absorption capabilities for ultraviolet and visible light.According to the Kubelka-Munk method,their bandwidths were 2.15 and 2.08 eV,respectively,which are consistent with those of typical semiconductor materials.Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements(2-300 K)revealed significant antiferromagnetic coupling in both complexes,with their effective magnetic moments decreasing markedly as the temperature lowered.CCDC:2457554,HU23;2457553,HU24.展开更多

The third-generation of low alloy steels is expected to achieve high strength and improved ductility and toughness, while satisfying the new demands for weight reduction, greenness, and safety. This paper reviews recent progress in the development of third-generation low alloy steels with an M^3 microstructure, namely, microstructures with multi-phase, meta-stable austenite, and multi-scale precipitates. The review summarizes the alloy designs and processing routes of microstructure control, and the mechanical properties of the alloys.The stabilization of retained austenite in low alloy steels is especially emphasized. Multi-scale nano-precipitates, including carbides of microalloying elements and Cu-rich precipitates obtained in third-generation low alloy steels, are then introduced. The structure–property relationships of third-generation alloys are also discussed. Finally, the promises and challenges to future applications are explored.展开更多

"The relation ...The Third-Generation Poetry of China (namely Post-misty Poetry too) initiated with the introduction of Western modernist poetry, especially sorts of American Post-modernist poetry schools into China. "The relation between American poetry and Chinese poetry has a long history, which lies in the influences on the creation of the Third-Generation poets. This influence is probably unprecedented in its depth and breadth." "Irrational association" and "leaping images" proposed by American Deep Image poets influenced by Freudian and Jungian unconscious perception gained an extraordinary appreciation among the Third-Generation poets who were in pursuit constantly of the experiments on poetic form and language. This paper mainly discusses the influences of American Deep Image on the Third-Generation poets of China through a case study of WANG Yin and CHEN Dongdong's poems.展开更多

This concept has also been applied for imaging of industrial processes such as pipe flows or for improving design, operation, optimization and troubleshooting. Nowadays, gamma CT permits to visualize failure equipment points in three-dimensional analysis and in sections of chemical and petrochemical industries. The aim of this work is the development of the mechanical system on a third-generation industrial CT scanner to analyze laboratorial process columns which perform highly efficient separation, turning the ^6oCo, ^75Se, ^137Cs and/or ^192Ir sealed gamma-ray source(s) and the NaI(Tl) multidetector array. It also has a translation movement along the column axis to obtain as many slices of the process flow as needed. The mechanical assembly for this third-generation industrial CT scanner is comprised by strength and rigidity structural frame in stainless and carbon steels, rotating table, source shield and collimator with pneumatic exposure system, spur gear system, translator, rotary stage, drives and stepper motors. The use of suitable spur gears has given a good repeatability and high accuracy in the degree of veracity. The data acquisition boards, mechanical control interfaces, software for movement control and image reconstruction were specially development. A multiphase phantom capable to be setting with solid, liquid and gas was testing. The scanner was setting for 90 views and 19 projections for each detector totalizing 11,970 projections. Experiments to determine the linear attenuation coefficients of the phantom were carried out which applied the Lambert-Beer principle. Results showed that it was possible to distinguish between the phases even the polymethylmethacrylate and the water have very similar density and linear attenuation coefficients. It was established that the newly developed third-generation fan-beam arrangement gamma scanner unit has a good spatial resolution acceptable given the size of the used phantom in this study. The tomografic reconstruction algorithm in used 60 ~ 60 pixels images was the Alternative Minimization (AM) technique and was implemented in MATLAB and VB platforms. The mechanical system presented a good performance in terms of strength, rigidity, accuracy and repeatability with great potential to be used for education or program which dedicated to training chemical and petrochemical industry professionals and for industrial process optimization in Brazil.展开更多

This involves using specific detectors with respective diagnostic beams to carry out quality control/quality assurance tests needed to optimize patient doses in the hospital. Semiconductor detectors are used in dosimetry to verify the equipment performance and dose to patients. This work aims to assess the performance, energy dependence, and response of five commercially available semiconductor detectors in RQR, RQR-M, RQA, and RQT at Secondary Standard Dosimetry for clinical applications. The diagnostic beams were generated using Exradin A4 reference ion chamber and PTW electrometer. The ambient temperature and pressure were noted for KTP correction. The detectors designed for RQR showed good performance in RQT beams and vice versa. The detectors designed for RQR-M displayed high energy dependency in other diagnostic beams. The type of diagnostic beam quality determines the response of semiconductor detectors. Therefore, a detector should be calibrated according to the beam qualities to be measured.展开更多

文摘During the past thirty years, two generations of low alloy steels(ferrite/pearlite followed by bainite/martensite) have been developed and widely used in structural applications. The third-generation of low alloy steels is expected to achieve high strength and improved ductility and toughness, while satisfying the new demands for weight reduction, greenness, and safety. This paper reviews recent progress in the development of third-generation low alloy steels with an M^3 microstructure, namely, microstructures with multi-phase, meta-stable austenite, and multi-scale precipitates. The review summarizes the alloy designs and processing routes of microstructure control, and the mechanical properties of the alloys.The stabilization of retained austenite in low alloy steels is especially emphasized.

文摘The breeding and large-scale application of hybrid rice contribute significantly to the food supply worldwide.Currently,hybrid seed production uses cytoplasmic male sterile(CMS)lines or photoperiod/thermo-sensitive genic male sterile(PTGMS)lines as female parent.Despite huge successes,both systems have intrinsic problems.CMS systems are mainly restricted by the narrow restorer resources that make it difficult to breed superior hybrids,while PTGMS systems are limited by conditional sterility of the male sterile lines that makes the propagation of both PTGMS seeds and hybrid seeds vulnerable to unpredictable climate changes.Recessive nuclear male sterile(NMS)lines insensitive to environmental conditions are widely distributed and are ideal for hybrid rice breeding and production,but the lack of effective ways to propagate the pure NMS lines in a large scale renders it impossible to use them for hybrid rice production.The development of"the third-generation hybrid rice technology"enables efficient propagation of the pure NMS lines in commercial scale.This paper discusses the establishment of"the thirdgeneration hybrid rice technology"and further innovations.This new technology breaks the limitations of CMS and PTGMS systems and will bring a big leap forward in hybrid rice production.
文摘Objective:Autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy(ARB),a retinal degenerative disease,is characterized by central visual loss,yellowish multifocal diffuse subretinal deposits,and a dramatic decrease in the light peak on electrooculogram.The potential pathogenic mechanism involves mutations in the BEST1 gene,which encodes Ca2+-activated Cl−channels in the retinal pigment epithelium(RPE),resulting in degeneration of RPE and photoreceptor.In this study,the complete clinical characteristics of two Chinese ARB families were summarized.Methods:Pacific Biosciences(PacBio)single-molecule real-time(SMRT)sequencing was performed on the probands to screen for disease-causing gene mutations,and Sanger sequencing was applied to validate variants in the patients and their family members.Results:Two novel mutations,c.202T>C(chr11:61722628,p.Y68H)and c.867+97G>A,in the BEST1 gene were identified in the two Chinese ARB families.The novel missense mutation BEST1 c.202T>C(p.Y68H)resulted in the substitution of tyrosine with histidine in the N-terminal region of transmembrane domain 2 of bestrophin-1.Another novel variant,BEST1 c.867+97G>A(chr11:61725867),located in intron 7,might be considered a regulatory variant that changes allele-specific binding affinity based on motifs of important transcriptional regulators.Conclusion:Our findings represent the first use of third-generation sequencing(TGS)to identify novel BEST1 mutations in patients with ARB,indicating that TGS can be a more accurate and efficient tool for identifying mutations in specific genes.The novel variants identified further broaden the mutation spectrum of BEST1 in the Chinese population.
文摘The existing numerical models for nearshore waves are briefly introduced, and the third-generation numerical model for shallow water wave, which makes use of the most advanced productions of wave research and has been adapted well to be used in the environment of seacoast, lake and estuary area, is particularly discussed. The applied model realizes the significant wave height distribution at different wind directions. To integrate the model into the coastal area sediment, sudden deposition mechanism, the distribution of average silt content and the change of sediment sudden deposition thickness over time in the nearshore area are simulated. The academic productions can give some theoretical guidance to the applications of sediment sudden deposition mechanism for stormy waves in the coastal area. And the advancing directions of sediment sudden deposition model are prospected.
文摘The Third-Generation Poetry of China (namely Post-misty Poetry too) initiated with the introduction of Western modernist poetry, especially sorts of American Post-modernist poetry schools into China. "The relation between American poetry and Chinese poetry has a long history, which lies in the influences on the creation of the Third-Generation poets. This influence is probably unprecedented in its depth and breadth." "Irrational association" and "leaping images" proposed by American Deep Image poets influenced by Freudian and Jungian unconscious perception gained an extraordinary appreciation among the Third-Generation poets who were in pursuit constantly of the experiments on poetic form and language. This paper mainly discusses the influences of American Deep Image on the Third-Generation poets of China through a case study of WANG Yin and CHEN Dongdong's poems.
文摘The development of measurement geometry for medical X-ray computed tomography (CT) scanners was carried out from the first to the fourth-generation. This concept has also been applied for imaging of industrial processes such as pipe flows or for improving design, operation, optimization and troubleshooting. Nowadays, gamma CT permits to visualize failure equipment points in three-dimensional analysis and in sections of chemical and petrochemical industries. The aim of this work is the development of the mechanical system on a third-generation industrial CT scanner to analyze laboratorial process columns which perform highly efficient separation, turning the ^6oCo, ^75Se, ^137Cs and/or ^192Ir sealed gamma-ray source(s) and the NaI(Tl) multidetector array. It also has a translation movement along the column axis to obtain as many slices of the process flow as needed. The mechanical assembly for this third-generation industrial CT scanner is comprised by strength and rigidity structural frame in stainless and carbon steels, rotating table, source shield and collimator with pneumatic exposure system, spur gear system, translator, rotary stage, drives and stepper motors. The use of suitable spur gears has given a good repeatability and high accuracy in the degree of veracity. The data acquisition boards, mechanical control interfaces, software for movement control and image reconstruction were specially development. A multiphase phantom capable to be setting with solid, liquid and gas was testing. The scanner was setting for 90 views and 19 projections for each detector totalizing 11,970 projections. Experiments to determine the linear attenuation coefficients of the phantom were carried out which applied the Lambert-Beer principle. Results showed that it was possible to distinguish between the phases even the polymethylmethacrylate and the water have very similar density and linear attenuation coefficients. It was established that the newly developed third-generation fan-beam arrangement gamma scanner unit has a good spatial resolution acceptable given the size of the used phantom in this study. The tomografic reconstruction algorithm in used 60 ~ 60 pixels images was the Alternative Minimization (AM) technique and was implemented in MATLAB and VB platforms. The mechanical system presented a good performance in terms of strength, rigidity, accuracy and repeatability with great potential to be used for education or program which dedicated to training chemical and petrochemical industry professionals and for industrial process optimization in Brazil.

文摘Semiconductor optoelectronics devices,capable of converting electrical power into light or conversely light into electrical power in a compact and highly efficient manner represent one of the most advanced technologies ever developed,which has profoundly reshaped the modern life with a wide range of applications.In recent decades,semiconductor technology has rapidly evolved from first-generation narrow bandgap materials(Si,Ge)to the latest fourth-generation ultra-wide bandgap semiconductor(GaO,diamond,AlN)with enhanced performance to meet growing demands.Additionally,merging semiconductor devices with other techniques,such as computer assisted design,state-of-the-art micro/nano fabrications,novel epitaxial growth,have significantly accelerated the development of semiconductor optoelectronics devices.Among them,integrating metasurfaces with semiconductor optoelectronic devices have opened new frontiers for on-chip control of their electromagnetic response,providing access to previously inaccessible degrees of freedom.We review the recent advances in on-chip control of a variety of semiconductor optoelectronic devices using integrated metasurfaces,including semiconductor lasers,semiconductor light emitting devices,semiconductor photodetectors,and low dimensional semiconductors.The integration of metasurfaces with semiconductors offers wafer-level ultracompact solutions for manipulating the functionalities of semiconductor devices,while also providing a practical platform for implementing cuttingedge metasurface technology in real-world applications.

文摘Although there are numerous optical spectroscopy techniques and methods that have been used to extract the fundamental bandgap of a semiconductor,most of them belong to one of these three approaches:(1)the excitonic absorption,(2)modulation spectroscopy,and(3)the most widely used Tauc-plot.The excitonic absorption is based on a many-particle theory,which is physically the most correct approach,but requires more stringent crystalline quality and appropriate sample preparation and experimental implementation.The Tauc-plot is based on a single-particle theo⁃ry that neglects the many-electron effects.Modulation spectroscopy analyzes the spectroscopy features in the derivative spectrum,typically,of the reflectance and transmission under an external perturbation.Empirically,the bandgap ener⁃gy derived from the three approaches follow the order of E_(ex)>E_(MS)>E_(TP),where three transition energies are from exci⁃tonic absorption,modulation spectroscopy,and Tauc-plot,respectively.In principle,defining E_(g) as the single-elec⁃tron bandgap,we expect E_(g)>E_(ex),thus,E_(g)>E_(TP).In the literature,E_(TP) is often interpreted as E_(g),which is conceptual⁃ly problematic.However,in many cases,because the excitonic peaks are not readily identifiable,the inconsistency be⁃tween E_(g) and E_(TP) becomes invisible.In this brief review,real world examples are used(1)to illustrate how excitonic absorption features depend sensitively on the sample and measurement conditions;(2)to demonstrate the differences between E_(ex),E_(MS),and E_(TP) when they can be extracted simultaneously for one sample;and(3)to show how the popular⁃ly adopted Tauc-plot could lead to misleading results.Finally,it is pointed out that if the excitonic absorption is not ob⁃servable,the modulation spectroscopy can often yield a more useful and reasonable bandgap than Tauc-plot.
文摘Radiation doses to patients in diagnostics and interventional radiology need to be optimized to comply with the principles of radiation protection in medical practice. This involves using specific detectors with respective diagnostic beams to carry out quality control/quality assurance tests needed to optimize patient doses in the hospital. Semiconductor detectors are used in dosimetry to verify the equipment performance and dose to patients. This work aims to assess the performance, energy dependence, and response of five commercially available semiconductor detectors in RQR, RQR-M, RQA, and RQT at Secondary Standard Dosimetry for clinical applications. The diagnostic beams were generated using Exradin A4 reference ion chamber and PTW electrometer. The ambient temperature and pressure were noted for KTP correction. The detectors designed for RQR showed good performance in RQT beams and vice versa. The detectors designed for RQR-M displayed high energy dependency in other diagnostic beams. The type of diagnostic beam quality determines the response of semiconductor detectors. Therefore, a detector should be calibrated according to the beam qualities to be measured.

文摘Semiconductors and related fields today hold vast application prospects.The semiconductor wafer fabrication process involves steps such as substrate preparation and epitaxy,which occur in high-temperature corrosive environments.Consequently,components like crucibles,susceptors and wafer carriers require carbon-based materials such as graphite and carbon-carbon composites.However,traditional carbon materials underperform in these extreme conditions,failing to effectively address the challenges.This leads to issues including product contamination and shortened equipment lifespan.Therefore,effective protection of carbon materials is crucial.This paper reviews current research status on the preparation methods and properties of corrosion-resistant coatings within relevant domestic and international fields.Preparation methods include various techniques such as physical vapor deposition(PVD),chemical vapor deposition(CVD)and the sol-gel method.Furthermore,it offers perspectives on future research directions for corrosion-resistant coated components in semiconductor equipment.These include exploring novel coating materials,improving coating preparation processes,enhancing coating corrosion resistance,as well as further investigating the interfacial interactions between coatings and carbon substrates to achieve better adhesion and compatibility.

文摘Organic semiconductor materials have shown unique advantages in the development of optoelectronic devices due to their ease of preparation,low cost,lightweight,and flexibility.In this work,we explored the application of the organic semiconductor Y6-1O single crystal in photodetection devices.Firstly,Y6-1O single crystal material was prepared on a silicon substrate using solution droplet casting method.The optical properties of Y6-1O material were characterized by polarized optical microscopy,fluorescence spectroscopy,etc.,confirming its highly single crystalline performance and emission properties in the near-infrared region.Phototransistors based on Y6-1O materials with different thicknesses were then fabricated and tested.It was found that the devices exhibited good visible to near-infrared photoresponse,with the maximum photoresponse in the near-infrared region at 785 nm.The photocurrent on/off ratio reaches 10^(2),and photoresponsivity reaches 16 mA/W.It was also found that the spectral response of the device could be regulated by gate voltage as well as the material thickness,providing important conditions for optimizing the performance of near-infrared photodetectors.This study not only demonstrates the excellent performance of organic phototransistors based on Y6-1O single crystal material in near-infrared detection but also provides new ideas and directions for the future development of infrared detectors.

文摘Realizing ferromagnetic semiconductors with high Curie temperature TC is still a challenge in spintronics.Recent experiments have reported two-dimensional(2D)room temperature ferromagnetic metals,such as monolayer Cr_(3)Te_(6).In this paper,through density functional theory(DFT)calculations,we propose a method to obtain 2D high TC ferromagnetic semiconductors through element replacement in these ferromagnetic metals.We predict that monolayer(Cr_(4/6),Mo_(2/6))_(3)Te_(6),created via element replacement in monolayer Cr_(3)Te_(6),is a room-temperature ferromagnetic semiconductor exhibiting a band gap of 0.34 eV and a TC of 384 K.Our analysis reveals that the metal-to-semiconductor transition stems from the synergistic interplay of Mo-induced lattice distortion,which resolves band overlap,and the electronic contributions of Mo dopants,which further drive the formation of a distinct band gap.The origin of the high TC is traced to strong superexchange coupling between magnetic ions,analyzed via the superexchange model with DFT and Wannier function calculations.Considering the fast developments in fabrication and manipulation of 2D materials,our theoretical results propose an approach to explore high-temperature ferromagnetic semiconductors derived from experimentally obtained 2D high-temperature ferromagnetic metals through element replacement.

文摘The effect of intermetallic particles on the corrosion of 6061 aluminum alloy and its coating used in semiconductor processing systems was systematically studied via liquid and gas experiments and micromorphology characterization.The results revealed that a huge difference of corrosion resistance between imported and domestic 6061 aluminum alloys in HCl solution and gas acid mist experiments mainly was attributed to the different size and amount of Al_(15)(Fe,Mn)_(3)Si_(2).The corrosion resistance of domestic 6061 alloy in dry/wet semiconductor electronic special gas environments was worse than that of imported aluminum alloy,and there are great differences in the corrosion mechanism of 6061 alloy caused by the second phase in the two dry/wet environments.And the corrosion resistance of the hard anodized alumina film was closely related to the microscopic morphology of holes.The vertical and elongatedα-Al_(15)(Mn,Fe)_(3)Si_(2) phase was formed in the rolled aluminum alloy that has been rolled perpendicular to the surface of the substrate.Compared to the horizontal long hole,the longitudinal long holes generated by the verticalα-Al_(15)(Mn,Fe)_(3)Si_(2) phase will enable the corrosive medium to reach the substrate rapidly,which significantly weakens the corrosion resistance of the hard anodized film.

文摘Flexoelectricity,an electromechanical coupling between strain gradient and electrical polarization in dielectrics or semiconductors,has attracted significant scientific interest.It is reported that large flexoelectric behaviors can be obtained at the nanoscale because of the size effect.However,the flexoelectric responses of centrosymmetric semiconductors(CSs)are extremely weak under a conventional beam-bending approach,owing to weak flexoelectric coefficients and small strain gradients.The flexoelectric-like effect is an enhanced electromechanical effect coupling the flexoelectricity and piezoelectricity.In this paper,a composite structure consisting of piezoelectric dielectric layers and a CS layer is proposed.The electromechanical response of the CS is significantly enhanced via antisymmetric piezoelectric polarization.Consequently,the cross-scale mechanically tuned carrier distribution in the semiconductor is realized.Meanwhile,the significant size dependence of the electromechanical fields in the semiconductor is demonstrated.The flexoelectronics suppression is found when the semiconductor thickness reaches a critical size(0.8μm).In addition,the first-order carrier density of the composite structure under local loads is illustrated.Our results can suggest the structural design for flexoelectric semiconductor devices.
文摘All-inorganic CsPbBr_(3) perovskite quantum dots(QDs)have attracted extensive attention in photoelectric detection for their excellent photoelectric properties and stability.However,the CsPbBr_(3) quantum dot film exhibits a high non-radiative recombination rate,and the mismatch in energy levels with the carbon electrode weakens hole extraction efficiency.These reduces the device's performance.To improve this,a semiconductor photodetector based on fluorine-doped tin oxide(FTO)/dense titanium dioxide(c-TiO_(2))/mesoporous titanium dioxide(m-TiO_(2))/CsPbBr_(3) QDs/CsPbBr_(x)I_(3-x)(x=2,1.5,1)QDs/C struc-ture was studied.By adjusting the Br-:I-ratio,the synthesized CsPbBr_(x)I_(3-x)(x=2,1.5,1)QDs showed an adjustable band gap width of 2.284-2.394 eV.And forming a typeⅡband structure with CsPbBr_(3) QDs,which reduced the valence band offset between the active layer and the carbon electrode,this promoted carrier extraction and reduced non-radiative recombination rate.Compared with the original device(the photosensitive layer is CsPbBr_(3) QDs),the performance of the photodetector based on the CsPbBr_(3) QDs/CsPbBr2I QDs heterostructure is significantly improved,the responsivity(R)increased by 73%,the specific detectivity rate(D^(*))increased from 6.98×10^(12) to 3.19×10^(13) Jones,the on/off ratio reached 106.This study provides a new idea for the development of semiconductor tandem detectors.

文摘We report the manipulation of ferromagnetism in magnetic semiconductor Ba(Zn,Mn,Cu)_(2)As_(2)through chemical pressure.The substitutions of Sr for Ba and Sb for As introduce positive and negative chemical pressures,respectively;neither Sr doping nor Sb doping change the tetragonal crystal structure.Based on Ba(Zn_(0.75)Mn_(0.125)Cu_(0.125))_(2)As_(2)with T_(C)~34 K,10%Sr/Ba substitutions significantly improve T_(C)by~15%to 39 K,whereas 10%Sb/As substitutions substantially reduce TCby~47%to 18 K.The AC magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate that Sr-doped and Sb-doped samples evolve into a spin glass state below the spin freezing temperature Tf.Electrical transport measurements demonstrate that Sr-doped specimens retain semiconducting behavior;additionally,they display a significant negative magnetoresistance effect under applied magnetic fields and the magnetoresistance reaches~-19%at 8 T.

文摘TiO_(2)is a well-known photocatalyst with a band gap of 3.2 eV,yet its ability to absorb light is limited to the short wavelengths of ultraviolet light.To achieve a more effective photocatalytic material,we have designed two-dimensional semiconductor TiOS materials using swarm intelligence algorithms combined with first-principles calculations.Three stable low-energy structures with space groups of P2_(1)/m,P3m1 and P2_(1)/c are identified.Among these structures,the Janus P3m1 phase is a direct bandgap semiconductor,while the P2_(1)/m and P2_(1)/c phases are indirect bandgap semiconductors.Utilizing the accurate hybrid density functional HSE06 method,the band gaps of the three structures are calculated to be 2.34 eV(P2_(1)/m),2.24 eV(P3m1)and 3.22 eV(P2_(1)/c).Optical calculations reveal that TiOS materials exhibit a good light-harvesting capability in both visible and ultraviolet spectral ranges.Moreover,the photocatalytic calculations also indicate that both P2_(1)/m and P3m1 TiOS can provide a strong driving force for converting H_(2)O to H_(2)and O_(2)in an acidic environment with pH=0.The structural stabilities,mechanical properties,electronic structures and hydrogen evolution reaction activities are also discussed in detail.Our research suggests that two-dimensional TiOS materials have potential applications in both semiconductor devices and photocatalysis.
