Sc、Ce掺杂CrSi2的电子结构与光学性质的第一性原理

采用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理赝势平面波方法对Sc、Ce单掺和共掺后CrSi₂的几何结构、电子结构、复介电函数、吸收系数和光电导率进行了计算。结果表明:Sc、Ce掺杂CrSi₂的晶格常数增大,带隙变小。本征CrSi₂的带隙为0.386 eV,Sc、Ce单掺及共掺CrSi₂的禁带宽度分别减小至0.245 eV、0.232 eV、0.198 eV,费米能级均向低能区移动进入价带。由于Sc的3d态电子和Ce的4f态电子的影响,Sc、Ce掺杂的CrSi₂在导带下方出现了杂质能级。掺杂后的CrSi₂介电函数虚部第一介电峰峰值增加且向低能方向移动,说明Sc、Ce掺杂使得CrSi₂在低能区的光跃迁强度增强,Sc-Ce共掺时更明显。Sc、Ce掺杂的CrSi₂吸收边在低能方向发生红移,在能量大于21.6 eV特别是在位于31.3 eV的较高能量附近,本征CrSi₂几乎不吸收光子,Sc单掺和Sc-Ce共掺CrSi₂吸收光子的能力有所增强,并在E=31.3 eV附近形成了第二吸收峰。说明掺杂Sc、Ce改善了CrSi₂对红外和较高能区光子的吸收。在小于3.91 eV的低能区掺杂后的CrSi₂光电导率增加。在20.01 eV<E<34.21 eV时,本征CrSi₂光电导率为零,但Sc、Ce掺杂后的体系不为零,掺杂拓宽了CrSi₂的光响应范围。研究结果为CrSi₂基光电器件的应用与设计提供了理论依据。

Developing Flexible Quinacridone-Derivatives-Based Photothermal Evaporaters for Solar Steam and Thermoelectric Power Generation

Solar-driven interfacial vaporization by localizing solar-thermal energy conversion to the air−water interface has attracted tremendous attention. In the process of converting solar energy into heat energy, photothermal materials play an essential role. Herein, a flexible solar-thermal material di-cyan substituted 5,12-dibutylquinacridone (DCN−4CQA)@Paper was developed by coating photothermal quinacridone derivatives on the cellulose paper. The DCN−4CQA@Paper combines desired chemical and physical properties, broadband light-absorbing, and shape-conforming abilities that render efficient photothermic vaporization. Notably, synergetic coupling of solar-steam and solar-electricity technologies by integrating DCN−4CQA@Paper and the thermoelectric devices is realized without trade-offs, highlighting the practical consideration toward more impactful solar heat exploitation. Such solar distillation and low-grade heat-to-electricity generation functions can provide potential opportunities for fresh water and electricity supply in off-grid or remote areas.

Classify the Higgs decays with the PFN and ParticleNet at electron–positron colliders

Various Higgs factories are proposed to study the Higgs boson precisely and systematically in a model- independent way. In this study, the Particle Flow Network and ParticleNet techniques are used to classify the Higgs decays into multicategories, and the ultimate goal is to realize an "end-to-end" analysis. A Monte Carlo simulation study is performed to demonstrate the feasibility, and the performance looks rather promising. This result could be the basis of a "one-stop" analysis to measure all the branching fractions of the Higgs decays simultaneously.

Design and fabrication of GeAsSeS chalcogenide waveguides with thermal annealing

We reported a chalcogenide glass-based rib waveguide fabricated using photolithography and dry etching method. A commercial software(COMSOL Multiphysics) was used to optimize the waveguide structure and the distribution of the fundamental modes in the waveguide based on the complete vector finite component. We further employed thermal annealing to optimize the surface and sidewalls of the rib waveguides. It was found that the optimal annealing temperature for Ge As Se S films is 220℃, and the roughness of the films could be significantly reduced by annealing. The zero-dispersion wavelength(ZDW) could be shifted to a short wavelength around ~2.1 μm via waveguide structural optimization, which promotes supercontinuum generation with a short wavelength pump laser source. The insertion loss of the waveguides with cross-sectional areas of 4.0 μm×3.5 μm and 6.0 μm×3.5 μm was measured using lens fiber and the cut-back method. The propagation loss of the 220℃ annealed waveguides could be as low as 1.9 d B/cm at 1550 nm.

Polypyridine-Based Helical Amide Foldamer Channels: Rapid Transport of Water and Protons with High Ion Rejection

Synthetic strategies that enable rapid construction of covalent organic nanotubes with an angstrom-scale tubular pore remain scarcely reported. Reported here is a remarkably simple and mild one-pot polymerization protocol, employing POCl₃ as the polymerization agent. This protocol efficiently generates polypyridine amide foldamer-based covalent organic nanotubes with a 2.8 nm length at a yield of 50 %. Trapping single-file water chains in the 2.8 Å tubular cavity, rich in hydrogen-bond donors and acceptors, these tubular polypyridine ensembles rapidly and selectively transport water at a rate of 1.6×10⁹ H₂O⋅S⁻¹⋅channel⁻¹ and protons at a speed as fast as gramicidin A, with a high rejection of ions.
