However, accurately distin...Advanced chemical engineering for simultaneous modulation of nanomaterial morphology, defects, interfaces, and structure to enhance electromagnetic and microwave absorption (MA) performance. However, accurately distinguishing the MA contributions of different scale factors and tuning the optimal combined effects remains a formidable challenge. This study employs a synergistic approach combining template protection etching and vacuum annealing to construct a controlled system of micrometer-sized cavities and amorphous carbon matrices in metal-organic framework (MOF) derivatives. The results demonstrate that the spatial effects introduced by the hollow structure enhance dielectric loss but significantly weaken impedance matching. By increasing the proportion of amorphous carbon, the balance between electromagnetic loss and impedance matching can be effectively maintained. Importantly, in a suitable graphitization environment, the presence of oxygen vacancies in amorphous carbon can induce significant polarization to compensate for the reduced conductivity loss due to the absence of sp2 carbon. Through the synergistic effects of morphology and composition, the samples exhibit a broader absorption bandwidth (6.28 GHz) and stronger reflection loss (−61.64 dB) compared to the original MOF. In conclusion, this study aims to elucidate the multiscale impacts of macroscopic micro-nano structure and microscopic defect engineering, providing valuable insights for future research in this field.展开更多

文摘Rapid technological advancements drive miniaturization and high energy density in devices,thereby increasing nanoscale thermal management demands and urging development of higher spatial resolution technologies for thermal imaging and transport research.Here,we introduce an approach to measure nanoscale thermal resistance using in situ inelastic scanning transmission electron microscopy.By constructing unidirectional heating flux with controlled temperature gradients and analyzing electron energy-loss/gain signals under optimized acquisition conditions,nanometer-resolution in mapping phonon apparent temperature is achieved.Thus,interfacial thermal resistance is determined by calculating the ratio of interfacial temperature difference to bulk temperature gradient.This methodology enables direct measurement of thermal transport properties for atomic-scale structural features(e.g.,defects and heterointerfaces),resolving critical structure-performance relationships,providing a useful tool for investigating thermal phenomena at the(sub-)nanoscale.

文摘We present a scheme for the electromagnetically-induced-absorption(EIA)-like ground state cooling in a hybrid optomechanical system which is combined by two-level quantum systems(qubits)and a high-Q optomechanical cavity.Under the weak qubit-cavity coupling,the system exhibits an EIA-like effect and this effect is caused by quantum destructive interference that is distinct from the conventional EIA effect driven by quantum constructive interference.More importantly,the EIA-like cooling mechanism can significantly enhance the cooling rate of the hybrid system,enabling the final phonon number beyond the classical cooling limit in the strong optomechanical coupling regime.Meanwhile,the cooling effects of the EIA case is better than that of the normalmode splitting case under the same optomechanical coupling strength and qubit dissipation rate.

文摘A super-radiant terahertz free-electron laser(THz-FEL)light source was developed for the first time in Thailand and Southeast Asia at the PBP-CMU Electron Linac Laboratory(PCELL)of Chiang Mai University.This radiation source requires relatively ultrashort electron bunches to produce intense coherent THz pulses.Three electron bunch compression processes are utilized in the PCELL accelerator system comprising pre-bunch compression in an alpha magnet,velocity bunching in a radio-frequency(RF)linear accelerator(linac),and magnetic bunch compression in a 180°acromat system.Electron bunch compression in the magnetic compressor system poses considerable challenges,which are addressed through the use of three quadrupole doublets.The strengths of the quadrupole fields significantly influence the rotation of the beam line longitudinal phase space distribution along the bunch compressor.Start-to-end beam dynamics simulations using the ASTRA code were performed to optimize the electron beam properties for generating super-radiant THz-FEL radiation.The operational parameters considered in the simulations comprise the alpha magnet gradient,linac RF phase,and quadrupole field strengths.The optimization results show that 10-16MeV femtosecond electron bunches with a low energy spread(~0.2%),small normalized emittance(~15πmm·mrad),and high peak current(165-247A)can be produced by the PCELL accelerator system at the optimal parameters.A THz-FEL with sub-microjoule pulse energies can thus be obtained at the optimized electron beam parameters.The physical and conceptual design of the THz-FEL beamline were completed based on the beam dynamics simulation results.The construction and installation of this beamline are currently underway and expected to be completed by mid-2024.The commissioning of the beamline will then commence.

文摘The study considers numerical findings regarding magneto-thermosolutal-aided natural convective flow of alumina/water-based nanofluid filled in a non-Darcian porous horizontal concentric annulus.Two equations are assumed to evaluate the thermal fields in the porous medium under Local Thermal Non-Equilibrium(LTNE)conditions,along with the Darcy-Brinkman-Forchheimer model for the flow.By imposing distinct and constant temperatures and concentrations on both internal and external cylinders,thermosolutal natural convection is induced in the annulus.We apply the finite volume method to solve the dimensionless governing equations numerically.The thermal conductivity and viscosity of the nanofluid mixture are determined utilizing Corcione’s empirical correlations,incorporating the effects of Brownian diffusion of nanoparticles.Steady-state findings are provided for a range of significant parameters,including buoyancy ratio(N=1 to 5),Lewis(Le=0 to 10),Rayleigh(Ra=102 to 105),Hartmann(Ha=0 to 50),and heat generation in the nanofluid and solid phases(Q=0 to 20)when the nanofluid flow is driven by aiding thermal and mass buoyancies at given porous medium characteristics(porosity(ε),Darcy number(Da),porous interfacial heat transfer coefficient(H),and thermal conductivity ratio(γ),to assess the thermosolutal convective circulation beside heat and solutal transfer rates in the annulus.The results reveal that internal heat generation significantly modifies the heat transport mechanism,initially reducing and then enhancing heat transfer rates as Q increases.Interestingly,increasing Le reduces heat transfer at low Q but promotes it when Q>5,while mass transfer consistently increases with Le.The magnetic field represses heat transfer in the absence of internal heat but enhances it when internal heat is present.

文摘Nanoscale defects such as dislocations have a significant impact on the phonon thermal transport properties in non-metallic materials.To unravel these effects,an understanding of defect phonon modes is essential.Herein,at the atomic scale,the localized phonons of individual dislocations at a Si/Ge interface are measured via monochromated electron energy loss spectroscopy in a scanning transmission electron microscope.These modes are then correlated with the local microstructure,further revealing the dislocation effects on the local thermal transport properties.The dislocation causes a phonon redshift of several milli-electron-volts within about two to four nanometers of the core,where both the strain field and Ge segregation play roles.With the presence of dislocation,the local interfacial thermal conductance can be either enhanced or reduced,depending on the complex interaction and competition between lattice disorder(dislocation)and element disorder(heterointerface mixing and Ge-segregation)at the interface.These findings provide valuable insights to improve the thermal properties of thermoelectric generators and thermal management systems through proper defect engineering.

文摘Terahertz(THz)radiation possesses unique properties that make it a promising light source for applications in various fields,particularly spectroscopy and imaging.Ongoing research and development in THz technology has focused on developing or improving THz sources,detectors,and applications.At the PBP-CMU Electron Linac Laboratory(PCELL)of the Plasma and Beam Physics Research Facility in Chiang Mai University,high-intensity THz radiation has been generated in the form of coherent transition radiation(TR)and investigated since 2006 for electron beams with energies ranging from 8 to 12 MeV.In this study,we investigate and optimize the coherent TR arising from short electron bunches with energies ranging from 8 to 22 MeV using an upgraded linear-accelerator system with a higher radio-frequency(RF)power system.This radiation is then transported from the accelerator hall to the experimental room,in which the spectrometers are located.Electron-beam simulations are conducted to achieve short bunch lengths and small transverse beam sizes at the TR station.Radiation properties,including the radiation spectrum,angular distribution,and radiation polarization,are thoroughly investigated.The electron-bunch length is evaluated using the measuring system.The radiation-transport line is designed to achieve optimal frequency response and high transmission efficiency.A radiation-transmission efficiency of approximately 80-90%can be achieved with this designed system,along with a pulse energy ranging from 0.17 to 0.25μJ.The expected radiation spectral range covers up to 2 THz with a peak power of 0.5-1.25 MW.This coherent,broadband,and intense THz radiation will serve as a light source for THz spectroscopy and THz time-domain spectroscopy applications at the PCELL in the near future.

文摘Advanced chemical engineering for simultaneous modulation of nanomaterial morphology, defects, interfaces, and structure to enhance electromagnetic and microwave absorption (MA) performance. However, accurately distinguishing the MA contributions of different scale factors and tuning the optimal combined effects remains a formidable challenge. This study employs a synergistic approach combining template protection etching and vacuum annealing to construct a controlled system of micrometer-sized cavities and amorphous carbon matrices in metal-organic framework (MOF) derivatives. The results demonstrate that the spatial effects introduced by the hollow structure enhance dielectric loss but significantly weaken impedance matching. By increasing the proportion of amorphous carbon, the balance between electromagnetic loss and impedance matching can be effectively maintained. Importantly, in a suitable graphitization environment, the presence of oxygen vacancies in amorphous carbon can induce significant polarization to compensate for the reduced conductivity loss due to the absence of sp2 carbon. Through the synergistic effects of morphology and composition, the samples exhibit a broader absorption bandwidth (6.28 GHz) and stronger reflection loss (−61.64 dB) compared to the original MOF. In conclusion, this study aims to elucidate the multiscale impacts of macroscopic micro-nano structure and microscopic defect engineering, providing valuable insights for future research in this field.

文摘We successfully prepared a series of rare-earth doped borosilicate glasses using the melt-quenching method,and carefully investigated the luminescent properties and the spectral modulation of Tb/Eucodoped borosilicate glasses under UV(200-400 nm)excitation.The results show that the prepared samples have the characteristics of broadband response,excellent transparency and tunable luminescence.By adjusting the excitation wavelength,the emissions of Tb^(3+),Eu^(2+)and Eu^(3+)ions are observed,which exhibit yellow-green,blue,red color and multi-color even white emissions,respectively.Moreover,the energy transfer between Tb^(3+)and Eu^(3+)ions in the codoped glasses is confirmed.Tb^(3+)absorbs a large number of solar-blind light,transfers to Eu^(3+)and results in intense visible emission in a wide waveband range.This makes the Tb/Eu co-doped glass a desirable candidate for solar-blind light detections.The photodetection system was built and shows a strong and stable response to the UV light of 210-400 nm.Due to broad detection range,high sensitivity and stability,our results offer strong implications for the development of photodetection device for diverse applications.

文摘The increasing awareness of environmental concerns has prompted a surge in the exploration of leadfree,high-power ceramic capacitors.Ongoing efforts to develop leadfree dielectric ceramics with exceptional energystorage performance(ESP)have predominantly relied on multicomponent composite strategies,often accomplished under ultrahigh electric fields.However,this approach poses challenges in insulation and system downsizing due to the necessary working voltage under such conditions.Despite extensive study,bulk ceramics of(Bi_(0.5)Na_(0.5))TiO_(3)(BNT),a prominent lead-free dielectric ceramic family,have seldom achieved a recoverable energy-storage(ES)density(Wrec)exceeding 7 J cm^(−3).This study introduces a novel approach to attain ceramic capacitors with high ESP under moderate electric fields by regulating permittivity based on a linear dielectric model,enhancing insulation quality,and engineering domain structures through chemical formula optimization.The incorporation of SrTiO_(3)(ST)into the BNT matrix is revealed to reduce the dielectric constant,while the addition of Bi(Mg_(2/3)Nb_(1/3))O_(3)(BMN)aids in maintaining polarization.Additionally,the study elucidates the methodology to achieve high ESP at moderate electric fields ranging from 300 to 500 kV cm^(−1).In our optimized composition,0.5(Bi_(0.5)Na_(0.4)K_(0.1))TiO_(3)–0.5(2/3ST-1/3BMN)(B-0.5SB)ceramics,we achieved a Wrec of 7.19 J cm^(−3) with an efficiency of 93.8%at 460 kV cm^(−1).Impressively,the B-0.5SB ceramics exhibit remarkable thermal stability between 30 and 140℃ under 365 kV cm^(−1),maintaining a Wrec exceeding 5 J cm^(−3).This study not only establishes the B-0.5SB ceramics as promising candidates for ES materials but also demonstrates the feasibility of optimizing ESP by modifying the dielectric constant under specific electric field conditions.Simultaneously,it provides valuable insights for the future design of ceramic capacitors with high ESP under constraints of limited electric field.

文摘In order to suppress the low-frequency ultrasound vibration in the broadband range of 20 k Hz—100 k Hz,this paper proposes and discusses an acoustic metamaterial with low-frequency ultrasound vibration attenuation properties,which is configured by hybrid arc and sharp-angle convergent star-shaped lattices.The effect of the dispersion relation and the bandgap characteristic for the scatterers in star-shaped are simulated and analyzed.The target bandgap width is extended by optimizing the geometry parameters of arc and sharp-angle convergent lattices.The proposed metamaterial configured by optimized hybrid lattices exhibits remarkable broad bandgap characteristics by bandgap complementarity,and the simulation results verify a 99%vibration attenuation amplitude can be obtained in the frequency of20 k Hz—100 k Hz.After the fabrication of the proposed hybrid configurational star-shaped metamaterial by 3D printing technique,the transmission loss experiments are performed,and the experimental results indicate that the fabricated metamaterial has the characteristics of broadband vibration attenuation and an amplitude greater than 85%attenuation for the target frequency.These results demonstrate that the hybrid configurational star-shaped metamaterials can effectively widen the bandgap and realize high efficiency attenuation,which has capability for the vibration attenuation in the application of highprecise equipment.

文摘The past few years have witnessed power conversion efficiency(PCE)of organic solar cells(OSCs)skyrocketing to the value of 20%due to the outstanding advantages of organic photoactive materials.The latter,which consist of donor and acceptor materials,indeed play important roles in OSCs,and particularly one building block has attracted considerable research attention,namely benzothiadiazole(BT).The diversity of OSCs based on the BT structure have indeed sprung up,and the progressive increase in PCE values is more than just eye-catching since it heralds a renewal and bright future of OSCs.This review analyzes significant studies that have led to these remarkable progresses and focuses on the most effective BT small-molecules and BT polymers for OSC reported in the last decades.The pivotal structure-property relationships,donor-acceptor matching criteria,and morphology control approaches are gathered and discussed in this paper.Lastly,we summarize the remaining challenges and offer a personal perspective on the future advance and improvement of OSCs.

文摘Perovskite solar cells(PSCs)have made great advances in terms of power conversion efficiency(PCE),yet their subpar stability continues to hinder their commercialization.The interface between the perovskite layer and the charge-carrier transporting layers plays a crucial role in undermining the stability of PSCs.In this work,we propose a strategy to stabilize high-performance PSCs with PCE over 23%by introducing a cesium-doped graphene oxide(GO-Cs)as an interlayer between the perovskite and hole-transporting material.The GO-Cs treated PSCs exhibit excellent operational stability with a projected T80(the time where the device PCE reduces to 80%of its initial value)of 2143 h of operation at the maximum powering point under one sun illumination.
