This study investigated the effects of phase boundary engineering and domain engineering on (1-x)[0.8Pb(Zr_(0.5)Ti_(0.5))O_(3)-0.2Pb(Zn_(1/3)Nb_(2/3))O_(3)]-xBi(Zn_(0.5)Ti_(0.5))O_(3) ((1-x)(0.8PZT-0.2PZN)- xBZT) ceramic to obtain excellent piezoelectric properties. The crystal phase structure and microstructure of ceramic samples were characterized. The results showed that all samples had a pure perovskite structure, and the addition of BZT gradually increased the grain size. The addition of BZT caused a phase transition in ceramic samples from the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) towards the tetragonal phase region, which is crucial for optimizing piezoelectric properties. By adjusting content of BZT and precisely controlling position of the phase boundary, the piezoelectric performance can be optimized. Domain structure is one of the key factors affecting piezoelectric performance. By using domain engineering techniques to optimize grain size and domain size, piezoelectric properties of ceramic samples have been significantly improved. Specifically, excellent piezoelectric properties (piezoelectric constant d_(33)=320 pC/N, electromechanical coupling factor kp=0.44) were obtained simultaneously for x=0.08. Based on experimental results and theoretical analysis, influence mechanisms of phase boundary engineering and domain engineering on piezoelectric properties were explored. The study shows that addition of BZT not only promotes grain growth, but also optimizes the domain structure, enabling the polarization reversal process easier, thereby improving piezoelectric properties. These research results not only provide new ideas for the design of high-performance piezoelectric ceramics, but also lay a theoretical foundation for development of related electronic devices.展开更多

文摘The catalytic oxidation of HMF involves a cascading reaction with multiple intermediate products,making it crucial to enhance the oriented adsorption capacity of specific functional groups for accelerating the entire process.To achieve the efficient selective oxidation of HMF to FDCA,a series of NiCo_(2)O_(4)catalysts with different morphologies,such as flaky,echinoids,pompon and corolla,were prepared and characterized by XRD,SEM,TEM,BET,XPS,and FTIR.Among the four catalysts,flaky NiCo_(2)O_(4)exhibited the most excellent catalytic activity and stability,with a FDCA yield of 60.1%within 12 h at 80℃without alkali participation.The excellent performance of flaky NiCo_(2)O_(4)catalyst is attributed to the oxygen vacancies and acid sites generated by the exposed(400)facets.The oxygen vacancies and acid sites on the catalyst surface can precisely adsorb-CHO and-CH_(2)-OH of HMF,respectively,and this synergistic effect promotes the efficient production of FDCA.This work is of great significance for fundamentally study the effect of micro-topography or crystal-plane reaction properties on surfaces.

文摘Titanium(Ti)and its alloys are frequently utilized as critical components in a variety of engineering ap-plications because of their high specific strength and excellent corrosion resistance.Compared to conven-tional surface strengthening technologies,laser shock peening(LSP)has increasingly attracted attention from researchers and industries,since it significantly improves the surface strength,biocompatibility,fa-tigue resistance,and anti-corrosion ability of Ti and its alloys.Despite numerous studies that have been carried out to elucidate the effects of LSP on microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of Ti and its alloys in recent years,a comprehensive review of recent advancements in the field of Ti and its alloys subjected to LSP is still lacking.In this review,the standard LSP and the novel process designs of LSP assisted by thermal,cryogenic,electropulsing and magnetic fields are discussed and compared.Microstructural evolution,with focuses on the dislocation dynamics,deformation twinning,grain refine-ment and surface amorphization,during LSP processing of Ti alloys is reviewed.Furthermore,the en-hanced engineering performance of the L SP-processed(L SPed)Ti alloys,including surface hardness,wear resistance,fatigue life and corrosion resistance are summarized.Finally,this review concludes by present-ing an overview of the current challenges encountered in this field and offering insights into anticipated future trends.

文摘Pb(Zr,Ti)O_(3)-Pb(Zn_(1/3)Nb_(2/3))O_(3) (PZT-PZN) based ceramics, as important piezoelectric materials, have a wide range of applications in fields such as sensors and actuators, thus the optimization of their piezoelectric properties has been a hot research topic. This study investigated the effects of phase boundary engineering and domain engineering on (1-x)[0.8Pb(Zr_(0.5)Ti_(0.5))O_(3)-0.2Pb(Zn_(1/3)Nb_(2/3))O_(3)]-xBi(Zn_(0.5)Ti_(0.5))O_(3) ((1-x)(0.8PZT-0.2PZN)- xBZT) ceramic to obtain excellent piezoelectric properties. The crystal phase structure and microstructure of ceramic samples were characterized. The results showed that all samples had a pure perovskite structure, and the addition of BZT gradually increased the grain size. The addition of BZT caused a phase transition in ceramic samples from the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) towards the tetragonal phase region, which is crucial for optimizing piezoelectric properties. By adjusting content of BZT and precisely controlling position of the phase boundary, the piezoelectric performance can be optimized. Domain structure is one of the key factors affecting piezoelectric performance. By using domain engineering techniques to optimize grain size and domain size, piezoelectric properties of ceramic samples have been significantly improved. Specifically, excellent piezoelectric properties (piezoelectric constant d_(33)=320 pC/N, electromechanical coupling factor kp=0.44) were obtained simultaneously for x=0.08. Based on experimental results and theoretical analysis, influence mechanisms of phase boundary engineering and domain engineering on piezoelectric properties were explored. The study shows that addition of BZT not only promotes grain growth, but also optimizes the domain structure, enabling the polarization reversal process easier, thereby improving piezoelectric properties. These research results not only provide new ideas for the design of high-performance piezoelectric ceramics, but also lay a theoretical foundation for development of related electronic devices.

文摘The burgeoning growth in electric vehicles and portable energy storage systems necessitates advances in the energy density and cost-effectiveness of lithium-ion batteries(LIBs),areas where lithium-rich manganese-based oxide(LLO)materials naturally stand out.Despite their inherent advantages,these materials encounter significant practical hurdles,including low initial Coulombic efficiency(ICE),diminished cycle/rate performance,and voltage fading during cycling,hindering their widespread adoption.In response,we introduce an ionic-electronic dual-conductive(IEDC)surface control strategy that integrates an electronically conductive graphene framework with an ionically conductive heteroepitaxial spinel Li_(4)Mn_(5)O_(12)layer.Prolonged electrochemical and structural analyses demonstrate that this IEDC heterostructure effectively minimizes polarization,mitigates structural distortion,and enhances electronic/ionic diffusion.Density functional theory calculations highlight an extensive Li^(+)percolation network and lower Li^(+)migration energies at the layered-spinel interface.The designed LLO cathode with IEDC interface engineering(LMOSG)exhibits improved ICE(82.9%at 0.1 C),elevated initial discharge capacity(296.7 mAh g^(-1)at 0.1 C),exceptional rate capability(176.5 mAh g^(-1)at 5 C),and outstanding cycle stability(73.7%retention at 5 C after 500 cycles).These findings and the novel dual-conductive surface architecture design offer promising directions for advancing highperformance electrode materials.

文摘Hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))photosynthesis represents an advanced on-site production method with significant potential for on-demand supply.However,various challenges hinder the efficiency of H_(2)O_(2) yield,including weak oxygen adsorption capacity,reliance on sacrificial agents,low charge separation and transfer efficiency.In this regard,doping design and defect engineering have emerged as robust and effective strategies for catalyst modification,particularly through their synergistic effects.Additionally,advanced in situ characterization techniques for investigating reaction mechanisms are gaining momentum.Herein,this review provides a comprehensive analysis of the fundamentals and challenges associated with photocatalytic H_(2)O_(2) production,and highlights the advantages of doping and defect engineering.Subsequently,it outlines preparation methods and applications of these strategies.More importantly,it emphasizes the advanced characterization techniques utilized to validate doping and defects,as well as to investigate underlying mechanisms.Finally,the potential prospects and challenges of this reaction are anticipated.This review aims to offer valuable insights for researchers from both experimental and theoretical perspectives.

文摘The development of dual functional material for cyclic CO_(2)capture and hydrogenation is of great significance for converting diluted CO_(2)into valuable fuels,but suffers from kinetic limitation and deactivation of adsorbent and catalyst.Herein,we engineered a series of RuNa/γ-Al_(2)O_(3)materials,varying the size of ruthenium from single atoms to clusters/nanoparticles.The coordination environment and structure sensitivity of ruthenium were quantitatively investigated at atomic scale.Our findings reveal that the reduced Ru nanoparticles,approximately 7.1 nm in diameter with a Ru-Ru coordination number of 5.9,exhibit high methane formation activity and selectivity at 340°C.The Ru-Na interfacial sites facilitate CO_(2)migration through a deoxygenation pathway,involving carbonate dissociation,carbonyl formation,and hydrogenation.In-situ experiments and theoretical calculations show that stable carbonyl intermediates on metallic Ru nanoparticles facilitate heterolytic C–O scission and C–H bonding,significantly lowering the energy barrier for activating stored CO_(2).

文摘Sb_(2)Se_(3)solar cells have achieved a power conversion efficiency(PCE)of over 10%.However,the serious open-circuit voltage deficit(VOC-deificit),induced by the hard-to-control crystal orientation and heterojunction interface reaction,limits the PCE of vapor transport deposition(VTD)processed Sb_(2)Se_(3)solar cells.To overcome the VOC-deficit problem of VTD processed Sb_(2)Se_(3)solar cells,herein,an in-situ bandgap regulation strategy is innovatively proposed to prepare a wide band gap Sb2(S,Se)3seed layer(WBSL)at CdS/Sb_(2)Se_(3)heterojunction interface to improve the PCE of Sb_(2)Se_(3)solar cells.The analysis results show that the introduced Sb2(S,Se)3seed layer can enhance the[001]orientation of Sb_(2)Se_(3)thin films,broaden the band gap of heterojunction interface,and realize a"Spike-like"conduction band alignment with ΔE_(c)=0.11 eV.In addition,thanks to the suppressed CdS/Sb_(2)Se_(3)interface reaction after WBSL application,the depletion region width of Sb_(2)Se_(3)solar cells is widened,and the quality of CdS/Sb_(2)Se_(3)interface and the carrier transporting performance of Sb_(2)Se_(3)solar cells are significantly improved as well.Moreover,the harmful Se vacancy defects near the front interface of Sb_(2)Se_(3)solar cells can be greatly diminished by WBSL.Finally,the PCE of Sb_(2)Se_(3)solar cells is improved from 7.0%to 7.6%;meanwhile the VOCis increased to 466 mV which is the highest value for the VTD derived Sb_(2)Se_(3)solar cells.This work will provide a valuable reference for the interface and orientation regulation of antimony-based chalcogenide solar cells.

文摘Efficient and stable electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution reaction(OER)in acidic environment is vital for polymer electrolyte membrane water electrolysis(PEMWE).In this work,we have devised the formation of heterostructured RuO_(2)/MnO_(2)with nanoflower structure for acidic OER catalysis.Compared to commercial RuO_(2),the overpotential at 50mA/cm^(2)is decreased by 36 mV,corresponding to a 3.7-fold better mass activity.The boosted acidic OER performance is attributed to the heterostructure inducing more electrons are filled in e_(g)orbital of Ru atom triggering a better deprotonation of bridge oxygen atom in Ru-O_(bri)-Mn structure evidenced by pH-independent cyclic voltammetry test.Moreover,RuO_(2)/MnO_(2)sustains its acidic OER activity within 20 h,longer than commercial RuO_(2).The membrane electrode assembly(MEA)test suggests than only 2.18 V is required to achieve a current density of 5 A/cm^(2).The theoretical calculation reveals that the e_(g)filling of Ru atom is increased from 2.18 to 2.39 after MnO_(2)incorporation,reducing the energy for the formation of ∗OOH moiety.

文摘Bismuth(Bi)anodes have been widely investigated for potential application in sodium-ion batteries(SIBs)due to their ultrahigh theoretical volumetric capacity(3800 mAh cm^(-3))and suitable sodiation potential(0.5-0.7 V).Unfortunately,either Bi or Bi-based compounds still face tricky challenges of unsatisfying reversible capacity(<350 mAh g^(-1))and inferior initial Coulombic efficiency(ICE,<70%).Herein,a controllable trace-sulfurization strategy is proposed to address these challenges by developing a yolkshell Bi/Bi_(2)S_(3)heterostructure encapsulated within S-doped carbon shells(TS-Bi/C).This approach strategically incorporates a trace amount of high-capacity Bi_(2)S_(3)phase with metallic Bi,consequently building regional Bi/Bi_(2)S_(3)heterointerfaces for enhancing interfacial charge transfer and sodium storage reversibility.Moreover,a thin and homogeneous solid electrolyte film(~5 nm)was formed on the surface of TS-Bi/C during the initial discharge-charge process.These merits result in an approximate 30%increase in ICE of TS-Bi/C(87.4%)compared to pure Bi/C(57,6%)when employed as anodes in SIBs,together with boosted discharge capacity of 462.3 mAh g^(-1)at 0.1 A g^(-1)and high rate capability of 382.4 mAh g^(-1)at 10 A g^(-1).Importantly,as compared to both Bi/C and Bi_(2)S_(3)/C counterparts,TS-Bi/C can deliver superior volumetric capacity as high as 1553 mAh cm^(-3)owing to its considerable tap density of 3.43 g cm^(-3).

文摘Zinc-ion hybrid capacitors (ZIHCs) have received increasing attention as energy storage devices owing to their low cost,high safety,and environmental friendliness.However,their progress has been hampered by low energy and power density,as well as unsatisfactory long-cycle stability,mainly due to the lack of suitable electrode materials.In this context,we have developed manganese single atoms implanted in nitrogen-doped porous carbon nanosheets (MnSAs/NCNs) using a metal salt template method as cathodes for ZIHCs.The metal salt serves a dual purpose in the synthesis process:It facilitates the uniform dispersion of Mn atoms within the carbon matrix and acts as an activating agent to create the porous structure.When applied in ZIHCs,the MnSAs/NCNs electrode demonstrates exceptional performance,including a high capacity of 203 m Ah g^(-1),an energy density of 138 Wh kg^(-1)at 68 W kg^(-1),and excellent cycle stability with 91%retention over 10,000 cycles.Theoretical calculations indicate that the introduced Mn atoms modulate the local charge distribution of carbon materials,thereby improving the electrochemical property.This work demonstrates the significant potential of carbon materials with metal atoms in zinc-ion hybrid capacitors,not only in enhancing electrochemical performance but also in providing new insights and methods for developing high-performance energy storage devices.

文摘Most studies have shown that oxygen vacancies on Ce_(x)Zr_(1-x)O_(2) solid solution are important for enhancing the catalytic oxidation performance.However,a handful of studies investigated the different roles of surface and subsurface oxygen vacancies on the performance and mechanisms of catalysts.Herein,a series of zirconium doping on CeO_(2) samples(CeO_(2),Ce_(0.95)Zr_(0.05)O_(2),and Ce_(0.8)5Zr_(0.15)O_(2))with various surface-to-subsurface oxygen vacancies ratios have been synthesized and applied in toluene catalytic oxidation.The obtained Ce_(0.95)Zr_(0.05)O_(2) exhibits an excellent catalytic performance with a 90%toluene conversion at 295℃,which is 68℃lower than that of CeO_(2).Additionally,the obtained Ce_(0.95)Zr_(0.05)O_(2)catalyst also exhibited good catalytic stability and water resistance.The XRD and HRTEM results show that Zr ions are incorporated into CeO_(2) lattice,forming Ce_(x)Zr_(1-x)O_(2) solid solution.Temperature-programmed experiments reveal that Ce_(0.95)Zr_(0.05)O_(2) shows excellent lowtemperature reducibility and abundant surface oxygen species.In-situ DRIFTS tests were used to probe the reaction mechanism,and the function of Zr doping in promoting the activation of oxygen was further determined.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations indicate that the vacancy formation energy and O_(2) adsorption energy are both lower on Ce_(0.95)Zr_(0.05)O_(2),confirming the reason for its superior catalytic performance.

文摘To address the severe challenges posed by the international situation and meet the needs of the national major development strategies,the traditional software engineering talent cultivation model lacks interdisciplinary education focused on specific fields,making it difficult to cultivate engineering leaders with multidisciplinary backgrounds who are capable of solving complex real-world problems.To solve this problem,based on the decade-long interdisciplinary talent cultivation achievements of the College of Software Engineering at Sichuan University,this article proposes the“Software Engineering+”innovative talent cultivation paradigm.It provides an analysis through professional construction of interdisciplinary talents,the design of talent cultivation frameworks,the formulation of cultivation plans,the establishment of interdisciplinary curriculum systems,the reform of teaching modes,and the improvement of institutional systems.Scientific solutions are proposed,and five project models implemented and operated by the College of Software Engineering at Sichuan University are listed as practical examples,offering significant reference value.
文摘Causality,the science of cause and effect,has made it possible to create a new family of models.Such models are often referred to as causal models.Unlike those of mathematical,numerical,empirical,or machine learning(ML)nature,causal models hope to tie the cause(s)to the effect(s)pertaining to a phenomenon(i.e.,data generating process)through causal principles.This paper presents one of the first works at creating causal models in the area of structural and construction engineering.To this end,this paper starts with a brief review of the principles of causality and then adopts four causal discovery algorithms,namely,PC(Peter-Clark),FCI(fast causal inference),GES(greedy equivalence search),and GRa SP(greedy relaxation of the sparsest permutation),have been used to examine four phenomena,including predicting the load-bearing capacity of axially loaded members,fire resistance of structural members,shear strength of beams,and resistance of walls against impulsive(blast)loading.Findings from this study reveal the possibility and merit of discovering complete and partial causal models.Finally,this study also proposes two simple metrics that can help assess the performance of causal discovery algorithms.
