Hole/Electron Transporting Materials for Nonfullerene Organic Solar Cells

Nonfullerene acceptor based organic solar cells (NF-OSCs) have witnessed rapid progress over the past few years owing to the intensive research efforts on novel electron donor and nonfullerene acceptor (NFA) materials, interfacial engineering, and device processing techniques. Interfacial layers including electron transporting layers (ETL) and hole transporting layers (HTLs) are crucially important in the OSCs for facilitating electron and hole extraction from the photoactive blend to the respective electrodes. In this review, the lates progress in both ETLs and HTLs for the currently prevailing NF-OSCs are discussed, in which the ETLs are summarized from the categories of metal oxides, metal chelates, non-conjugated electrolytes and conjugated electrolytes, and the HTLs are summarized from the categories of inorganic and organic materials. In addition, some bifunctional interlayer materials served as both ETLs and HTLs are also introduced. Finally, the prospects of ETL/HTL materials for NF-OSCs are provided.     

Reduced magnetic disorder at low temperature in Ca3Co2O6 via zinc substitution

ABSTRACT

The compound Ca₃Co₂O₆ undergoes a transition into a spin-density wave (SDW) state near 24?K. Below ～10?K, this unstable SDW state coexists with a nearly- degenerate commensurate antiferromagnetic state as well as short-range magnetic order. Clear signatures of this strong magnetic disorder have been observed in the response of entropy to changing magnetic field and temperature. We performed a calorimetry study of Ca₃Co₂O₆ and Ca₃Co_1.9Zn_0.1O₆ in order to compare their entropic responses at low temperature. Our results for Ca₃Co₂O₆ reveal that ΔS(T, H)?≡?S(T, H)?S(T, H?=?0) increases as either temperature or magnetic field increase. In contrast, ΔS data for Ca₃Co_1.9Zn_0.1O₆ were relatively unresponsive to changes in temperature or field, suggesting that Zn substitution may reduce the low-temperature magnetic disorder observed in Ca₃Co₂O₆. These results are discussed within the context of two cases (Ca₃Co₂O₆ under applied pressure and Ca_2.75R_0.25Co₂O₆ (R?=?Dy, Lu)) in which a single magnetic ground state is stabilised.     

基于三导向条结构的枪钻深孔加工动力学分析及圆度误差优化

为了改善深孔加工的圆度形貌,依据枪钻深孔结构与加工中的实际受力情况,结合导向块对提高孔加工圆度形貌所起到的作用,设计出具有三个导向块的优化结构。在保证计算精度的前提下,通过有限元分析法及力学模型的特征矩阵推算出深孔加工过程中出现圆度误差的数学表达,并通过数值仿真分析与实验研究,对比分析了两导向块结构和三导向块结构枪钻在相同的加工条件下圆度误差形成的情况。计算结果表明,三导向块结构的枪钻加工孔的圆度误差更小。可见,三导向块结构可以有效降低圆度形貌变形的出现,提高加工质量。     

On tunneling through the black hole horizon

It is shown here that there is no way for particle creation to occur by quantum tunneling through an infinitesimal neighborhood of the black hole horizon. This result is a trivial consequence of the regularity of the horizon, the equivalence principle and the general covariance of the relativistic theory of gravity. Moreover, we also confirm the less trivial statement that no particle creation by quantum tunneling through the black hole horizon is possible independent of the size of the presupposed tunneling domain.     

一步法合成的FeOOH/黑磷纳米复合材料协同实现体系优异的析氧性能

通过水热法，在黑磷(BP)纳米片表面生长FeOOH纳米材料，制备出FeOOH/BP纳米复合材料。作为电化学析氧反应(OER)催化剂，该复合材料在20 mA·cm^-2时的过电位仅为191 mV，Tafel斜率为49.9 mV dec^-1；在循环1 000圈后，过电位仅仅增加了3 mV，且循环过程中元素价态不变，表现出优秀的稳定性。纳米FeOOH负载于BP表面，客观上能隔断氧气对BP的氧化，保护BP的载流子传导性能。同时，生长的FeOOH颗粒尺度小，结晶性弱，这有利于丰富其活性位点，增大活性面积。     

Stencil lithography of gold-black IR absorption coatings

Gold black coatings are deposited through a stencil shadow mask to produce infrared-absorbing patterns with sub-mm lateral dimensions. Such dimensions match the characteristic pitch of Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) array bolometers. Infrared spectral imaging with sub-micron spatial resolution reveals the spatial distribution of absorption across the pattern.     

Quasi-normal modes of extremal black holes from hidden conformal symmetry

In this Letter, we construct the quasi-normal modes of three-dimensional extremal black holes in an algebraic way. We show that the infinite towers of the quasi-normal modes of scalar, vector and tensor could be constructed as the descendents of the highest weight modes. Our investigation shows that the hidden conformal symmetry suggested in Chen et al. (2010) [5] is an intrinsic property of the extremal black hole. Moreover, we notice that we need to fix the freedom in defining the local vector fields and find the right hidden conformal symmetry to obtain the physical quasi-normal modes.     

Aging properties of styrene-butadiene rubber nanocomposites filled with carbon black and rectorite

To better understand the effect of rectorite and carbon black (CB) on the aging performance of styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), SBR/CB, SBR/CB/rectorite and SBR/rectorite nanocomposites with the same total filler loading were prepared. The microstructure of the three SBR nanocomposites was characterized by XRD, TEM and SEM. After thermal aging, oxygen-containing molecules were found to be formed in the SBR nanocomposites, as verified by FTIR analysis. The SBR/rectorite nanocomposite showed the highest aging coefficient and the lowest change rate of tensile strength and stress at 100% strain among the three SBR nanocomposites, indicating that the introduction of nano-dispersed rectorite layers can enhance the thermal aging resistance of the nanocomposites. For the SBR/CB/rectorite nanocomposite, the addition of CB helped to improve the interfacial compatibility between the filler and matrix, resulting in the best crack resistance as the aged SBR/CB/rectorite nanocomposite always demonstrated the least cracks on the surface during either stretching or bending experiments.
