Thin films with a nanometer-scale thickness are of great interest to both scientific and industrial communities due to their numerous applications and unique behaviors different from the bulk. However, the understanding of thin-film mechanics is still greatly hampered due to their intrinsic fragility and the lack of commercially available experimental instruments. In this review, we first discuss the progression of thin-film mechanical testing methods based on the supporting substrate: film-on-solid substrate method, film-on-water tensile tests, and water-assisted free-standing tensile tests. By comparing past studies on a model polymer, polystyrene, the effect of different substrates and confinement effect on the thin-film mechanics is evaluated. These techniques have generated fruitful scientific knowledge in the field of organic semiconductors for the understanding of structure–mechanical property relationships. We end this review by providing our perspective for their bright prospects in much broader applications and materials of interest. 相似文献
Two Ag(I)-based coordination polymers, namely [Ag2(3,3′-tmbpt)(o-Hbdc)2]·H2O (1) and [Ag8(3,3′-tmbpt)4(1,2,4-Hbtc)4(H2O)] (2) (3,3′-tmbpt?=?1-((1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methyl)-3,5-bis(3-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole, o-H2bdc?=?1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid and 1,2,4-H3btc?=?1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylic acid), have been synthesized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, elemental analyses, infrared spectra, powder X-ray diffraction analyses and thermogravimetric analyses have been carried out to characterize the structures of 1 and 2. Compound 1 shows a (3,4)-connected 2D layered structure with a Schläfli symbol of (42·6)(42·63·8). The intermolecular O–H···O hydrogen-bonding interactions extend the 2D layer into a 3D supramolecular architecture. Compound 2 exhibits a (3,3)-connected double-layered structure with a Schläfli symbol of (4·8·10)2(82·10)2. The intermolecular C–H···O hydrogen-bonding interactions link the double-layers to form a 3D supramolecular architecture. Moreover, there are intramolecular and intermolecular π–π interactions in 1 and 2, which stabilize the whole 3D supramolecular architectures. The band gaps of 1 and 2 are 3.19 and 3.09 eV, respectively, indicating the potential of 1 and 2 as semiconductive materials with wide band gaps. Moreover, 1 and 2 emit intense blue-green light, which may be potential photoactive materials.
Graphic Abstract

The band gaps and photoluminescent properties of the compounds have been studied.

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. 相似文献
Two‐dimensional (2D) PtSe2 shows the most prominent layer‐dependent electrical properties among various 2D materials and high catalytic activity for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), and therefore, it is an ideal material for exploring the structure–activity correlations in 2D systems. Here, starting with the synthesis of single‐crystalline 2D PtSe2 with a controlled number of layers and probing the HER catalytic activity of individual flakes in micro electrochemical cells, we investigated the layer‐dependent HER catalytic activity of 2D PtSe2 from both theoretical and experimental perspectives. We clearly demonstrated how the number of layers affects the number of active sites, the electronic structures, and electrical properties of 2D PtSe2 flakes and thus alters their catalytic performance for HER. Our results also highlight the importance of efficient electron transfer in achieving optimum activity for ultrathin electrocatalysts. Our studies greatly enrich our understanding of the structure–activity correlations for 2D catalysts and provide new insight for the design and synthesis of ultrathin catalysts with high activity. 相似文献
