锂离子电池的合金电极材料的失效研究

采用电镀技术在铜箔上电镀金属锡, 并对其充放电过程中的厚度和结构的变化进行了观察和分析. 锡电极经过热处理后, 活性物质锡与基体铜相互扩散生成中间合金Cu6Sn5. 在合金电极嵌锂过程中, 由于有机电解液的分解, 形成了大量的锂氧化物, 这是合金电极体积膨胀的最主要的原因之一. 锂脱嵌后, 部分锂以Li2SnCu的形态保留在合金中, 造成了合金电极首次充放电的不可逆容量损失. 一些新型电解质的应用可能有助于降低合金电极材料体积的膨胀并提高其循环寿命.     

Stripping of photoresist on silicon wafer by CO(2) supercritical fluid

Supercritical CO₂-based fluid is not only being considered as environmentally benign medium for photoresist (PR) removal in electronic device manufacture, but also capable of challenging feature dimensions. Despite many attractive properties, clear supercritical CO₂ has little solvating power for PR. Here, two acetate modifiers were selective to add in the CO₂ and evaluated individual contribution to the overall stripping rate by factorial experiment design, which included four other factors with four level ranges for each one and concluded the best 90% extraction efficiency would be obtained under the optimized parameters: 2.5 min static time, 35 min dynamic time, 1.25 ml ethylacetate spiked, 125 °C oven temperature and 480 atm CO₂ pressure. As analyzing the variances of these contributors to this system, it disclosed that dynamics controlled the stripping mechanism before near 35 min purging but thermodynamics took over after then; and that increasing pressure was more competent for removing PR than increasing temperature. All supercritical extracts were from two commercial PR coated on two substrates and analyzed by UV absorption spectrometry. Removing PR coated on silicon oxide layer was easier than that on Al-Cu alloy one.

Recent Developments of Crystallographic Analysis Methods in the Scanning Electron Microscope for Applications in Metallurgy

The field of metallurgy has greatly benefited from the development of electron microscopy over the last two decades. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has become a powerful tool for the investigation of nano- and microstructures. This article reviews the complete set of tools for crystallographic analysis in the SEM, i.e., electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), transmission Kikuchi diffraction (TKD), and electron channeling contrast imaging (ECCI). We describe recent relevant developments in electron microscopy, and discuss the state-of-the-art of the techniques and their use for analyses in metallurgy. EBSD orientation measurements provide better angular resolution than spot diffraction in TEM but slightly lower than Kikuchi diffraction in TEM, however, its statistical significance is superior to TEM techniques. Although spatial resolution is slightly lower than in TEM/STEM techniques, EBSD is often a preferred tool for quantitative phase characterization in bulk metals. Moreover, EBSD enables the measurement of lattice strain/rotation at the sub-micron scale, and dislocation density. TKD enables the transmitted electron diffraction analysis of thin-foil specimens. The small interaction volume between the sample and the electron beam enhances considerably the spatial resolution as compared to EBSD, allowing the characterization of ultra-fine-grained metals in the SEM. ECCI is a useful technique to image near-surface lattice defects without the necessity to expose two free surfaces as in TEM. Its relevant contributions to metallography include deformation characterization of metals, including defect visualization, and dislocation density measurements. EBSD and ECCI are mature techniques, still undergoing a continuous expansion in research and industry. Upcoming technical developments in electron sources and optics, as well as detector instrumentation and software, will likely push the border of performance in terms of spatial resolution and acquisition speed. The potential of TKD, combined with EDS, to provide crystallographic, chemical, and morphologic characterizations of nano-structured metals will surely be a valuable asset in metallurgy.     

Improved efficiency of small-molecular (S-M) tandem organic solar cells (TOSCs) by employing low work function alloy nanoparticle intermediate layer

We improved the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the small molecular (S-M) tandem organic solar cells (TOSCs) by employing different low work function alloy nanoparticle intermediate layers. The enhancement of the PCE was mainly attributed to the gap states formed at the interface between the buffer layer and alloy nanoparticle intermediate layer. The gap states result in the disappearance of the electron injection barrier. Compared with the planar heterojunction (PHJ) TOSCs with single Ag nanoparticle intermediate layer, the PCE of the PHJ TOSC with the Mg-Ag alloy nanoparticle intermediate layer exhibits an enhancement of 7.5%. Moreover, the Mg-Ag alloy nanoparticle intermediate layer was also employed in the bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) TOSCs. Compared with the PHJ TOSCs, the PCE of the BHJ TOSCs with Mg-Ag alloy nanoparticle intermediate layer is doubled and achieves a value of 5.54%.     

共线DP-LIBS低碳合金钢中碳元素定量分析

碳元素是决定合金钢性能的重要元素之一。为了提高低碳合金钢中碳元素的检测灵敏度,在氩气氛围中利用共线双脉冲激光诱导击穿光谱(DP-LIBS)合金钢样品中的碳元素进行了检测。首先,使用高速相机采集双脉冲实验条件下的等离子体图像,研究等离子体形貌随脉冲间隔时间变化的演化规律,结合双脉冲条件下获得的光谱信息,确立碳元素的最佳脉冲间隔时间为1 900 ns。其次,研究了氩气吹扫条件和氩气气室条件对碳元素光谱信号强度的影响。氩气气室能够有效屏蔽空气中二氧化碳的影响,从而提高合金钢中碳元素分析的准确性。最后,采用内标法对合金钢样品中的碳元素进行定量分析。与单脉冲得到的结果相比,双脉冲实验条件下,碳元素定标曲线的R2由0.983提升至0.991,检测限由206 μg·g-1提高至110 μg·g-1,共线DP-LIBS技术使合金钢中碳元素检测限提高了1.87倍。恰当的脉冲间隔时间能够有效的提高共线DP-LIBS光谱特性和设备的检测灵敏度,同时双脉冲的二次激发效果可以进一步有效的减弱实验条件波动带来的影响,使定标模型具有更好的线性相关性。     

New developments of advanced high-strength steels for automotive applications

Automotive industry asks for higher resistant steels to lighten parts and improve crash resistance. Keeping a good ductility while increasing tensile strength requires the development of new grades in which hardening mechanisms counteract the drop in elongation when enhancing mechanical resistance. This is mainly achieved with multiphase steels and completing dislocation hardening by twinning and martensite transformation during straining. This has led to high-strength steel families, some of them being already used in body in white (Dual Phase (DP) and TRIP steels). Others, still in development, will soon emerge on the market (Quenched and Partitioned (Q&P), medium-Mn steels or TWIP).
