MULTIAXIAL BEHAVIOR OF NANOPOROUS SINGLE CRYSTAL COPPER： A MOLECULAR DYNAMICS STUDY

The stress-strain behavior and copper are studied by the molecular dynamics incipient yield surface of nanoporous single crystal （MD） method. The problem is modeled by a periodic unit cell subject to multi-axial loading. The loading induced defect evolution is explored. The incipient yield surfaces are found to be tension-compression asymmetric. For a given void volume fraction, apparent size effects in the yield surface are predicted： the smaller behaves stronger. The evolution pattern of defects （i.e., dislocation and stacking faults） is insensitive to the model size and void volume fraction. However, it is loading path dependent. Squared prismatic dislocation loops dominate the incipient yielding under hydrostatic tension while stacking-faults are the primary defects for hydrostatic compression and uniaxial tension/compression.     

Structural Analysis of Electroplated Amorphous-Nanocrystalline Ni-W

 Ductile nickel-tungsten (Ni-W) alloys containing about 20–21 at.%W were electroplated onto copper substrates. The development of the amorphous/nanocrystalline microstructure towards a complete crystallization by isochronal heat treatments in vacuum was monitored by different methods. For medium annealing temperatures a solid-solution of W in the fcc-Ni lattice was achieved resulting in an increased hardness. For temperatures of 600 °C and upward recrystallization started and thermodynamically stable intermetallic compounds like Ni₄W and NiW were formed. A third phase, containing more than 80 at.%W was also detected but could not be identified so far. Only by combination of different methods and especially by use of analytical TEM structural analysis and phase identification in these amorphous-nanocrystalline Ni-W alloys were successful.     

Influence of processing variables on the formation of La2Zr2O7 in transferred arc plasma torch processing

The transferred arc plasma (TAP) torch process has various noteworthy features such as extremely high temperatures, low environmental impact and short processing time which makes it the most suitable technique for synthesizing ceramic composite materials. Furthermore, it is a direct two-step technique which by its virtue of high temperature and power density paves way for high production rate. Hence in this study, an effort has been made to utilize the TAP torch processing technique for the bulk production of La₂Zr₂O₇ with time effectiveness from the mixture of La₂O₃ and ZrO₂ powders (1:2 mol ratios) which were ball milled for 4 h. For this purpose, transferred arc plasma torch was specially designed in laboratory scale level and the operating parameters were optimized in order to achieve maximum La₂Zr₂O₇ formation efficiency. In this study, the phase and microstructure formation of the processed samples was analyzed via X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) images respectively. Moreover, EDX analysis was incorporated to highlight the superior influence of the longer processing time on the stoichiometric ratio of ZrO₂/La₂O₃ in the processed sample as against input power and the gas flow rate.

Multi-Channel Optical Device for Solar-Driven Bacterial Inactivation under Real-Time Temperature Feedback

Solar-driven photothermal antibacterial devices have attracted a lot of interest due to the fact that solar energy is one of the cleanest sources of energy in the world. However, conventional materials have a narrow absorbance band, resulting in deficient solar harvesting. In addition, lack of knowledge on temperature change in these devices during the photothermal process has also led to a waste of energy. Here, we presented an elegant multi-channel optical device with a multilayer structure to simultaneously address the above-mentioned issues in solar-driven antibacterial devices. In the photothermal channel, semiconductor IrO₂-nanoaggregates exhibited higher solar absorbance and photothermal conversion efficiency compared with nanoparticles. In the luminescence channel, thermal-sensitive Er-doped upconversion nanoparticles were utilized to reflect the microscale temperature in real-time. The bacteria were successfully inactivated during the photothermal effect under solar irradiation with temperature monitoring. This study could provide valuable insight for the development of smart photothermal devices for solar-driven photothermal bacterial inactivation in the future.     

A Silicon Nanowire‐Based Electrochemical Sensor with High Sensitivity and Electrocatalytic Activity

A new kind of silicon nanowire (SiNWs)‐based nanoelectrode assembly, a gold‐nanoparticle‐decorated silicon nanowire array (AuNPs@SiNWsAr), is employed for the construction of high‐performance electrochemical sensors. Significantly, the electrochemical nanosensors are capable of sensitive detection of various electroactive molecules (e.g., dopamine (DA), ascorbic acid (AA), hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), and glucose). Further, DA molecules loaded on the surface of AuNPs@SiNWsAr preserve stable high electroactivity overnight without special protection, while free DA molecules may lose their biological activity due to severe oxidization in ambient environment. These findings may offer new opportunities for the design of high‐performance electrochemical nanosensors with high sensitivity and robust stability.
