含氧空位的氟掺杂二氧化锰助力稳定锌离子电池

将无机盐NH₄F加入到MnO₂的前驱体溶液中,通过高效、简单的一步水热法制备了具有氧缺陷的F掺杂α-MnO₂纳米棒(记为F-MnO₂)。氧空位和F掺杂对提高F-MnO₂的导电性、促进离子扩散、提高倍率性能起着至关重要的作用。另外,由于F掺杂,形成了F—Mn键,这可以有效地抑制放电产物中Mn³⁺的Jahn-Teller畸变,从而提高结构的稳定性。得益于这些协同效应,组装的Zn||F-MnO₂全电池在0.5 A·g^-1下,首圈放电比容量高达274 mAh·g^-1,且具有较长的循环寿命和优异的倍率性能。同时,通过循环伏安(CV)和恒流充放电(GCD)曲线证明了F-MnO₂的储能机制为H⁺和Zn²⁺的共嵌入/脱出过程。

Chiral and water‐soluble poly(2‐oxazoline)s

We describe the synthesis and characterization of the first water‐soluble and chiral poly(2,4‐disubstituted‐2‐oxazoline)s. While poly(2,4‐dimethyl‐2‐oxazoline)s are water soluble up to 100 °C, aqueous solutions of poly(2‐ethyl‐4‐methly‐2‐oxazoline) exhibit a lower critical solution temperature. This is discussed in context with its constitutional isomers poly(2‐oxazoline)s and poly(2‐oxazine)s. Circular dichroism spectroscopy revealed strong Cotton effects, which are also responsive to temperature in aqueous solution. It is therefore hypothesized that structures, comparable to polyproline helices, are formed in aqueous solution. In contrast to polyproline, poly(2,4‐disubstituted‐2‐oxazoline)s are highly water soluble and therefore represent very interesting pseudo‐polypeptides that may be useful to develop responsive biomimetic biomaterials. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effects of the laser surface treatment on the mechanical properties of CuZr-based bulk metallic glasses

Surfaces of three types of CuZr-based bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) were modified by laser surface treatment (LST), and the influence of the treatment on structure and mechanical properties of these alloys was investigated. The phase structure of as-cast and laser-treated samples was characterized by XRD and the morphology of the alloys after fracture was examined by SEM. The compressive plasticity of treated Cu47.5Zr47.5Al5 and Cu46.5Zr47.5Al5Co1 BMGs can be improved from 0.5% to 2.0% and from 1.2% to 5.7% respectively compared with the as-cast ones, while (Cu0.55Zr0.40Al0.05)99Er1 BMG shows insignificant change of plasticity. The improvement in plasticity is attributed to induced crystallization of B2 CuZr phase in the treated surface zone of selected metallic glasses.     

Magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effects in amorphous and crystalline Gd55Co35Ni10 ribbons

The magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effects of amorphous and crystalline Gd55Co35Ni10 ribbons are investigated.A main phase with a Ho 12 Co 7-type monoclinic structure(space group P21/c) and a minor phase with a Ho4Co3-type hexagonal structure(space group P63/m) are obtained for crystalline ribbon after annealing.The amorphous ribbons order ferromagnetically and undergo a second-order transition at 192 K.For crystalline Gd55Co35Ni10 ribbons,two magnetic phase transitions occur at 158 and 214 K,respectively.The peak value of-△SM under a field change of 0-5 T is 6.5 J/kg K at 192 K for amorphous Gd55Co35Ni10 ribbons.A relatively large magnetic entropy change(～5.0 J/kg K) under a field change of 0-5 T for the crystalline Gd55Co35Ni10 ribbons is obtained in the temperature interval range of 154-214 K.The large platform of magnetic entropy change and the negligible thermal/magnetic hysteresis loss mean the crystalline Gd55Co35Ni10 compound can satisfy the requirement of the Ericsson-type refrigerator working in the temperature range from 154K to 214K.     

Trapping and diffusion behaviors of helium at vacancy in iron from first principles

We investigate the structure,trapping,and diffusion behaviors of helium(He) at vacancy in a Fe single crystal using first-principles simulations.Vacancy with more space can provide the lower electron density region for He binding in comparison with intrinsic Fe,causing He to diffuse into the vacancy inner easily.We provide the quantitative microscopic studies related to the atomic-level thermo-kinetic trapping processes.Moreover,such physical viewpoint can be applied to other vacancy-like defects such as vacancy clusters,void and grain boundaries which can open a space with reduced electron density region to increase He binding in metals and metal alloys.     

Optical bistability based on surface plasmon coupled between two noble metal films involving Kerr materials

We successfully investigate an optical bistability phenomenon in a layered structure consisting of Kretschmann configuration involving the Kerr-type nonlinear and the silver film. Pure theoretical approaches are employed to investigate that the surface plasmon could easily be coupled and both the reflection and transmission curves versus the incident intensity forms optical bistability. The transmission curves are greatly influenced by the thickness of the second silver film. These results may be useful for designing novel surface plasmon-based optical devices and will be essential for future classical and quantum information processes.     

SIMULATION OF OCCUPATION FUNCTION FOR THERMALLY STIMULATED CONDUCTIVITY IN AMORPHOUS SEMICONDUCTORS

The occupation functions for the general condition f(E,T), for the high field approx-imation (HTSC) f_H(E,T) and for the steady state photoconductivity (SSPC) f_P(E,T) in the thermally stimulated conductivity (TSC) of amorphous semiconductors have been inves-tigated. It was found that the occupation function f(E,T) in TSC is in excellent agreement with the occupation function in SSPC f_P(E,T) under the condition of σ_TSC(T) = σ_P(T).There is a large difference between f_P(E,T) and f_H(E,T), which can be much reduced by introducing an effective attempt to escape frequency ν_eff in the calculation of f_H (E, T). The results show that the mobility-lifetime product (μτ) in TSC obtained from SSPC measure-ments under the above condition is valid. For high field approximation TSC, the simulated ν_eff is found to be temperature dependent.     

A DOUBLE-TEMPERATURE-GRADIENT TECHNIQUE FOR THE GROWTH OF PURE C60 SINGLE CRYSTALS FROM THE VAPOR PHASE

Pure C₆₀ single crystals were grown by a sublimation-condensation method in an evacuated dosed quartz tube situated in a double-temperature-gradient furnace. Large C₆₀ single crystals, up to a size of 0.6 mm×1.0 mm×2.0 mm with quite smooth and shiny faces, were obtained. X-ray diffraction, electron diffraction and X-ray morphology were carried out and showed that the quality of large C₆₀ single crystals grown by the double-temperature-gradient technique is excellent. In this paper the experimental results of the growth of large C₆₀ single crystals are reported and the morphological and structural characterizations are discussed in detail.
