Facile growth of novel morphology correlated Ag/Co-doped ZnO nanowire/flake-like composites for superior photoelectrochemical water splitting activity
摘要: In this paper, novel morphology correlation between silver nanowires (AgNWs) and cobalt (Co)-doped ZnO (Co-ZnO) flake-like thin films (nanowire/flake-like) has been proposed for enhanced photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting activity. Here in, high-quality AgNWs/Co-ZnO heterostructures enabled superior visible light water splitting activity compared to the pure ZnO and AgNWs/ZnO. To address the strategic effect of AgNWs coupling and transition metal (Co-2 at%) doping into the ZnO host lattice, we have carried out the X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, UV–Vis transmittance, water contact angle and PEC analyses. In this way, PEC water splitting activity was mainly examined by linear sweep voltammetry (I-V), amperometric I-t and photoconversion efficiency (η) studies. The experimental results provide clear evidence of morphology correlation between AgNWs and Co-ZnO flake-like structures for strong visible light absorption. Specifically, AgNWs/Co-ZnO composites exhibited significant enhancement in the photocurrent density (7.0 × 10^-4 A/cm^2) than AgNWs/ZnO (3.2 × 10^-4 A/cm^2) and pure ZnO (1.5 × 10^-6 A/cm^2). As a result, detailed AgNWs/Co-ZnO geometry has great potential for photoconversion efficiency (0.73%). In a word, the merits of controllable AgNWs/Co-ZnO heterostructure are proposed to improve the visible light harvesting and charge carrier generation for energy conversion devices.

[IEEE 2018 Cross Strait Quad-Regional Radio Science and Wireless Technology Conference (CSQRWC) - Xuzhou (2018.7.21-2018.7.24)] 2018 Cross Strait Quad-Regional Radio Science and Wireless Technology Conference (CSQRWC) - The Design and Experimental Verification of Broadband Absorbing Structure Combined by A1<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3f</inf>/ Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>Compositesand Metamaterials
摘要: With the aim to design a particular electromagnetic (EM) wave absorbing structure for broadband frequency used at high temperature, a multi-layer structure was proposed by combing the dielectric materials and square patch metamaterial. The absorbing structure was fabricated by precursor infiltration and pyrolysis technique and screen printing process. The computational and experimental results showed that a maximum reflection loss could be lower than ?7dB at 2-18GHz with a total thickness of 9mm. This effective enhancement on EM wave absorption property was believed to be a consequence of multi-layer and resonance effect induced by combining the traditional EM absorbing materials with metamaterial structure.

A conducting composite microfiber containing graphene/silver nanowires in an agarose matrix with fast humidity sensing ability
摘要: We report agarose-polymer-based composite microfibers with enhanced conductivity and fast humidity sensing owing to incorporation of conductive nanofillers. The microfibers are fabricated by extruding a hydrogel filament containing silver nanowires (AgNWs) and graphene oxide (GO, chemically reduced after extrusion) as 1D and 2D nanofillers, respectively. For the same concentration, GO enhances the mechanical properties of the microfibers more effectively than AgNWs. The microfiber with nanofillers has a higher Young’s modulus than commercial nylon-6 and polyamide. Due to synergy between AgNWs and reduced GO (rGO), the microfiber with both fillers shows higher conductivity than those with only one filler. The flexible microfiber retains its conductivity well under repeated bending/unbending cycles. Since rGO ionizes water molecules, the conductivity of the microfiber increases with increasing environmental humidity. Humidity sensing ability of the composite microfiber, based on the humidity-dependent conductivity, is demonstrated. The microfiber with both nanofillers respond rapidly and reversibly to humidity changes because the AgNWs facilitate charge carrier transport and water adsorption/desorption. The humidity sensor based on the composite microfiber also reliably detects repeated short human breaths.

Fabricating nano-sized BiVO <sub/>4</sub> /InVO <sub/>4</sub> /g-C <sub/>3</sub> N <sub/>4</sub> photocatalysts for efficient degradation of Acid Blue 92 azo dye
摘要: BiVO4/InVO4 and BiVO4/InVO4/g-C3N4 were prepared by hydrothermal and ultrasonic-assisted hydrothermal methods respectively. All prepared samples were characterised by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The photocatalytic activity of the prepared catalysts was determined by degradation of Acid Blue 92 (AB92) under visible light. The rate constant and efficiency of AB92 degradation over BiVO4/InVO4/g-C3N4 was higher than that over BiVO4/InVO4 which indicates better photocatalytic activity of BiVO4/InVO4/g-C3N4. This enhancement can be attributed to the suitable dispersion of BiVO4 and InVO4 particles on the g-C3N4 surface. Furthermore, the conduction band and valence band edge potentials of InVO4, BiVO4 and g-C3N4 extend the life-time of electron–hole pairs which is beneficial for the improvement of photocatalytic efficiency.

A Vibrometer Based on Magnetorheological Optical Resonators
摘要: This paper addresses the feasibility of an optical vibrometer that is based on the shift of the optical modes, also known as whispering gallery modes (WGMs), of a magnetorheological optical resonator. The optical resonator that is used in this study is fabricated by mixing polyvinyl chloride plastisol with magnetically polarizable particles. When a permanent magnet that is located nearby the optical resonator is moved, it induces a perturbation of the morphology of the resonator, due to the magnetostrictive effect. This change in the morphology induces a shift in the optical modes of the resonator. The shift of the optical modes can be related to the displacement of the permanent magnet. The proposed sensor concept is based on monitoring the displacement of a tiny magnet that is attached to a moving surface. The optical quality factor of the resonator used in these studies was of the order of 106. The experimental results show a sensitivity of 0.32 pm/μm and a resolution that is less than 300 nm.

High dielectric and breakdown properties achieved in ternary BaTiO3/MXene/PVDF nanocomposites with low-concentration fillers from enhanced interface polarization
摘要: Although high permittivity is achieved in barium titanate (BT) filled polymer nanocomposites, severely reduced insulation and breakdown properties are frequently found due to overload and agglomeration of BT nanoparticles with ultrahigh specific area. To simultaneously realize high permittivity and breakdown strength, in this work, unfunctionalized 2D Ti3C2 MXene nanosheets with 2 wt % weight concentration were introduced to prepare ternary BT/MXene/polymer nanocomposites by solution cast process. Employing low-concentration conductive MXene instead of high-concentration ferroelectric BT could lead to significant improvement of permittivity of ternary composites, ascribed to remarkably increased interface types and enhanced interface polarization. In comparison to binary BT/polymer composites, ternary composites could have slightly improved dielectric loss and conductivity as well as gracefully reduced breakdown strength, attributed to finely retained high interface compatibility and filler dispersion. Ternary composite containing 8 wt % BT and 2 wt % MXene had a permittivity of 77, loss of 0.15 at 100 Hz and breakdown strength of 220 MV m-1. This work might open the door to large-scale fabrication of promising composites with high permittivity and breakdown strength under low filler loading (~ 10 wt %).

Sm-mediated dielectric characteristics and tunable magneto-electric coefficient of 0.5Bi1-xSmxFe0.95Mn0.05O3-0.5PbTiO3 composites
摘要: Magneto-electric multiferroic composites have gained a lot of interest these days mainly due to extensive potential of coupling between ferroelectric and magnetic orders. In this work, we present a series of 0.5Bi1-xSmxFe0.95Mn0.05O3 ? 0.5PbTiO3 (x = 0.00, 0.03, 0.06, 0.09, 0.12 and 0.15) composites, prepared by sol-gel auto-combustion and solid state reaction method to explore the tunability of magneto-electric coefficient. X-ray diffraction confirmed the rhombohedraly distorted cubic perovskite and tetragonal structures of BiFeO3 and PbTiO3, respectively. Ferroelectric loops showed that leakage current can be tuned and reduced by Sm-doping. Magnetic analysis showed switching of antiferromagnetic behaviour into weak ferromagnetic behaviour. Saturation and remanent magnetization were also calculated exhibiting an increasing trend with increasing Sm contents. Synthesized composites showed the non-linear frequency dependent dielectric response which was explained on the basis of Maxwell Wagner theory. Time varying conductivity was probed on the basis of polaron mechanism. The optimized composite reveal an enhanced magneto-electric coupling as compared to that of pure BiFeO3 which makes them feasible for the fabrication of multifunctional devices.

Cladding of Stellite-6/WC Composites Coatings by Laser Metal Deposition
摘要: This study aims to investigate the microstructure and hardness of multi-layered Stellite-6/WC metal-matrix composites coatings on metallic substrates cladded by laser metal deposition (LMD) for improvement of wear and corrosion resistances. As coating materials, Stellite-6 and WC-12wt.%Co powders were selected. Powder mixtures having various mixing-ratios of Stellite-6 and WC-12wt.%Co were provided vertically on S45C substrates by controlling powder feeding rates of the two powder feeders, individually. Stellite-6/WC composites which consist of three layers with different compositions were cladded on the S45C substrates by laser melting. Cross-sectional microstructure observation was carried out by using an optical microscope (OM). Vickers microhardness tests were conducted to evaluate hardness of the cladding layers and substrates. The experimental results demonstrate that hard multi-layered Stellite-6/WC metal-matrix composites coatings were successfully cladded on the S45C substrates. Property gradients in the Stellite-6/WC composites could be made due to the position-dependent chemical composition and microstructure made by controlling powder feeding rates of an LMD system.
