文摘This work presents a systematic analysis of proton-induced total ionizing dose(TID)effects in 1.2 k V silicon carbide(SiC)power devices with various edge termination structures.Three edge terminations including ring-assisted junction termination extension(RA-JTE),multiple floating zone JTE(MFZ-JTE),and field limiting rings(FLR)were fabricated and irradiated with45 Me V protons at fluences ranging from 1×10^(12) to 1×10^(14) cm^(-2).Experimental results,supported by TCAD simulations,show that the RA-JTE structure maintained stable breakdown performance with less than 1%variation due to its effective electric field redistribution by multiple P+rings.In contrast,MFZ-JTE and FLR exhibit breakdown voltage shifts of 6.1%and 15.2%,respectively,under the highest fluence.These results demonstrate the superior radiation tolerance of the RA-JTE structure under TID conditions and provide practical design guidance for radiation-hardened Si C power devices in space and other highradiation environments.

文摘In this work,W/β-Ga_(2)O_(3)Schottky barrier diodes,prepared using a confined magnetic field-based sputtering method,were analyzed at different operation temperatures.Firstly,Schottky barrier height increased with increasing temperature from 100 to 300 K and reached 1.03 eV at room temperature.The ideality factor decreased with increasing temperature and it was higher than 2 at 100 K.This apparent high value was related to the tunneling effect.Secondly,the series and on-resistances decreased with increasing operation temperature.Finally,the interfacial dislocation was extracted from the tunneling current.A high dislocation density was found,which indicates the domination of tunneling through dislocation in the transport mecha-nism.These findings are evidently helpful in designing better performance devices.

文摘Dramatic fluorescence enhancement in two-dimensional(2D)van der Waals materials(vdWMs)coupled to plasmonic nanostructures has the potential to enable ultrathin,flexible,and high-brightness illumination devices.However,addressing the limitation of locally scattered small plasmon-enhanced areas remains challenging.Here,we present a 2D plasmonic enhancement of photoluminescence(PL)spanning nearly 800μm^(2),enabled by surface lattice resonance(SLR)in a 2D vdWM-Au slot lattice hybrid.The Au slot lattice is designed and fabricated using Babinet’s principle and Rayleigh’s anomaly to maximize radiative decay rate and induce non-local photo-excitation in a MoSe_(2)monolayer.For emitted PL coupled with SLR,enhanced by up to 32-fold,we investigate its in-plane directivity and long-range propagation using angle-and space-resolved spectroscopic PL measurements.Our experiment reveals that a nearly 800μm^(2)2D luminescent sheet can be achieved regardless of the size of the MoSe_(2)crystal,even with a sub-μm^(2)flake.This work provides a new type of ultrabright,large-area 2D luminescent material,suitable for a range of optical illumination,communication,and sensing devices.

文摘We developed kinetic energy-harvestable and kinetic movement-detectable piezoelectric nanogenerators(PENGs)consisting of piezoelectric nanofiber(NF)mats and metal-electroplated microfiber(MF)electrodes using electrospinning and electroplating methods.Percolative non-woven structure and high flexibility of the NF mats and MF electrodes allowed us to achieve highly transparent and flexible piezocomposites.A viscoelastic solution,mixed with P(VDF-TrFE)and BaTiO_(3),was electrospun into piezoelectric NFs with a piezoelectric coefficient d33 of 21.2 pC/N.In addition,the combination of electrospinning and elec-troplating techniques enabled the fabrication of Ni-plated MF-based transparent conductive electrodes(TCEs),contributing to the high transparency of the resulting piezocomposite.The energy-harvesting efficiencies of the BaTiO_(3)-embedded NF-based PENGs with transmittances of 86%and 80%were 200 and 240 V/MPa,respectively,marking the highest values in their class.Moreover,the output voltage driven by the coupling effect of piezoelectricity and triboelectricity during finger tapping was 25.7 V.These highly efficient energy-harvesting performances,along with the transparent and flexible features of the PENGs,hold great promise for body-attachable energy-harvesting and sensing devices,as demonstrated in this study.

文摘Variations in parameters associated with the ambient environment can introduce noise in soft,body-worn sensors.For example,many piezoresistive pressure sensors exhibit a high degree of sensitivity to fluctuations in temperature,thereby requiring active compensation strategies.The research presented here addresses this challenge with a multilayered 3D microsystem design that integrates four piezoresistive sensors in a full-Wheatstone bridge configuration.An optimized layout of the sensors relative to the neutral mechanical plane leads to both an insensitivity to temperature and an increased sensitivity to pressure,relative to previously reported devices that rely on similar operating principles.Integrating this 3D pressure sensor into a soft,flexible electronics platform yields a system capable of real-time,wireless measurements from the surface of the skin.Placement above the radial and carotid arteries yields high-quality waveforms associated with pulsatile blood flow,with quantitative correlations to blood pressure.The results establish the materials and engineering aspects of a technology with broad potential in remote health monitoring.

文摘Stretchable organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs)are emerging as a key technology for next-generation wearable devices due to their uniform light emission,stable performance under stretching conditions,and various flexible substrates.This paper introduces stretchable OLEDs fabricated with laser-cut kirigami patterns and a multifunctional encapsulation multilayer(MEM)barrier.These OLEDs were subsequently transferred onto textiles.These stretchable OLEDs achieved a remarkable stretchability of up to 150%through optimized kirigami pattern and maintained 100%stretchability when integrated with textiles,preserving the flexibility of a textile substrate.Additionally,the MEM barrier provided ultraviolet(UV)reflection and waterproof properties,ensuring reliable performance in harsh environments.Stretchable OLEDs and stretchable fabric OLEDs demonstrated a high luminance of 18,983 cd/m^(2) and 10,205 cd/m^(2),with minimal emission variation under stretched conditions.Furthermore,the potential of stretchable fabric OLEDs for wearable healthcare applications was evaluated by measuring photoplethysmography(PPG)signals.Stable PPG signals were successfully obtained at a 20%stretched state.Adjusting light source intensity effectively compensated for signal quality degradation caused by stretching.These findings highlight the significant potential of stretchable fabric OLEDs for wearable devices and photodiagnostic platforms,offering broad applicability across diverse fields.

文摘In contemporary society,personal vehicles are indispensable for enhancing everyday convenience,and numerous advanced technological solutions for safe driving are being proposed,including autonomous emergency braking systems and lane departure warning systems.However,traditional sensors aimed at preventing incapacitated driving due to drowsiness,alcohol consumption,or sudden health issues often require additional power and may infringe upon driver privacy.A self-powered,nonintrusive motion recording system utilizing a triboelectric nanogenerator with an arch and cantilever structure(AC-TENG)as a sensor to track driver motions is introduced.Motion patterns of users are captured in real time by imaging the waveforms generated by the AC-TENG.To discern the peaks of the AC-TENG waveforms with greater precision and clarity,the roughness of the contact surface is enhanced using the reactive ion etching(RIE)technique,thereby amplifying the voltage by a factor of 2.1.The resulting output power of 2.77 mW and a corresponding power density of 3.08 W/m^(2)are demonstrated.Energy harvesting is facilitated by the proposed AC-TENG sensor,coupled with a power management integrated circuit(PMIC).Additionally,continuous wireless data transmission is enabled by using it as an input source alongside a solar cell.Motion data captured by the sensor are classified via deep transfer learning,enabling real-time monitoring of safe driving.Upon detection of any abnormal signals,the driver is promptly alerted by this system,and its application can be extended to functionalities such as transitioning the vehicle to autonomous driving mode.

文摘As social networks and related data processes have grown exponentially in complexity,the efficient resolution of combinatorial optimization problems has become increasingly crucial.Recent advancements in probabilistic computing approaches have demonstrated significant potential for addressing these problems more efficiently than conventional deterministic computing methods.In this study,we demonstrate a highly durable probabilistic bit(pbit)device utilizing two-dimensional materials,specifically hexagonal boron nitride(h-BN)and tin disulfide(SnS2)nanosheets.By leveraging the inherently stochastic nature of electron trapping and detrapping at the h-BN/SnS2 interface,the device achieves durable probabilistic fluctuations over 108 cycles with minimal energy consumption.To mitigate the static power consumption,we integrated an active switch in series with a p-bit device,replacing conventional resistors.Furthermore,employing the pulse width as the control variable for probabilistic switching significantly enhances noise immunity.We demonstrate the practical application of the proposed p-bit device in implementing invertible Boolean logic gates and subsequent integer factorization,highlighting its potential for solving complex combinatorial optimization problems and extending its applicability to real-world scenarios such as cryptographic systems.
