Synthesis of flower-like WS2 by chemical vapor deposition

Flower-like tungsten disulfide (WS₂) with a diameter of 5-10 μm is prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), Raman spectroscopy, and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy are used to characterize its morphological and optical properties, and its growth mechanism is discussed. The key factors for the formation of flower-like WS₂ are determined. Firstly, the cooling process causes the generation of nucleation dislocations, and then the "leaf" growth of flower-like WS₂ is achieved by increasing the temperature.     

Rational Design of Two-Dimensional Magnetic Chromium Borides Based on First-Principles Calculation

Two-dimensional(2D) magnetic materials have been experimentally recognized recently,however,the Curie temperatures(TC) of known 2D systems are quite low.Generally,magnetic systems can be seen as constituent magnetic elements providing spins and the non-magnetic elements providing frameworks to host the magnetic elements.Short bond lengths between the magnetic and non-magnetic elements would be beneficial for strong magnetic interactions and thus high TC.Based on this,we propose to combine the magnetic element Cr and the non-magnetic element boron to design novel 2D magnetic systems.Using our self-developed software package IM2 ODE,we design a series of chromium-boride based 2D magnetic materials.Nine stable magnetic systems are identified.Among them,we find that CrB4-Ⅰ,CrB4-Ⅱ and CrBs-Ⅰ with common structural units [CrB8] are ferromagnetic metals with estimated TC of 270 K,120 K and 110 K,respectively.On the other hand,five CrB3 phases with structural units [Cr2B12] are antiferromagnetic metals.Additionally,we also find one antiferromagnetic semiconductor CrB2-Ⅰ.Our work may open new directions for identifying 2D magnetic systems with high TC.

A reconfigurable terahertz polarization converter based on metal–graphene hybrid metasurface

A metal-graphene hybrid metasurface polarization converter is designed in this Letter.The unit cell of the hybrid metasurface is composed of a butterfly-shaped structure whose branches are connected by multi-layer graphene sheets.The proposed device can be reconfigured from linear-to-circular polarization to cross-polarization by changing the Fermi energy of graphene.The simulation results show that for three-layer graphene,the device acts as a linear-to-circular polarization converter when EF=0 eV and switches to a cross-polarization converter when EF=0.5 eV.Compared with single-layer graphene,the device with three-layer graphene can maintain the cross-polarization conversion performance under low Fermi energy.Furthermore,two equivalent circuits in the x and y directions are developed to understand the working mechanism of the device.     

纳米孔壁面作用对蛋白质过孔影响的粗粒化分子动力学模拟

基于粗粒化分子动力学方法模拟电驱动蛋白质过孔过程，研究纳米孔-水/纳米孔-蛋白质相互作用对电泳迁移率的影响；用操控式分子动力学模拟分析蛋白质在不同相互作用下过孔摩擦系数和摩擦阻力.研究发现：蛋白质黏附纳米孔壁面对其过孔特性影响并不明显，而纳米孔-水相互作用对蛋白质过孔电泳迁移率和摩擦系数影响较大.随纳米孔-水相互作用增强，纳米孔壁面与蛋白质附近水分子运动差异显现，蛋白质过孔摩擦阻力显著增大，过孔摩擦系数随之增大，进而影响蛋白质过孔电泳迁移率.所得结果可为纳米孔材料设计提供理论指导.

基于电厂烟气脱硫渣,采用多步酸洗工艺加以提纯并制备获得CaSO_4载氧体。在高温固定床反应器上研究了还原反应温度、载氧体过量系数Φ、多次还原氧化循环等因素对提纯脱硫渣载氧体与煤化学链燃烧特性和气相硫演化规律的影响。结果表明,提纯脱硫渣载氧体有较高的反应活性,能够促进煤的充分转化;综合考虑碳的转化以及气相硫释放的抑制,最优反应工况中还原反应温度确定为900℃、载氧体过量系数Φ=1.0为最佳。经过五次还原氧化循环实验发现,随着循环次数的增加,CaSO_4副反应的进行及气相硫的不断释放,导致提纯脱硫渣载氧体循环反应活性略有降低,反应稳定性受到了一定的影响。
