NBT-0.25Eu^3+ ceramics show the strongest red and orange emissions corresponding to the 5D0 → 7F2 (617 nm) and 5D0→ 7F1 (596 nm) transitions, respectively. The strongest excitation band around 465 nm matches well with the emission wavelength of commercial InGaN-based blue LED chip, indicating that Eu^3+-doped NBT ceramics may be used as potential environmental friendly red-orange phosphor for W-LEDs application. As an inherent ferroelectric and piezoelectric material, the electrical properties of this potentially multifunctional electro-optical material have been also studied. The introduction of Eu^3+ distinctly increased the Curie temperature (Tc) of NBT-xEu^3+ ceramics from 640℃ to 711℃ as x ranges from 0 to 0.40. For higher temperature applications, the electrical conductivity was also investigated. The conduction of charge carriers in hightemperature range originates from the conducting electrons from the ionization of oxygen vacancies. High Tc and low tanδ makes Eu^3+-doped NBT ceramic also suitable for high temperature piezoelectric sensor applications and electro-optical integration.展开更多

Structural analysis revealed that a single inter-growth structured phase exists in all samples and the Er3+ ion substituting for Bi3+ at the A-site increases the orthorhombic distortion. Under the 980 nm laser excitation, two characteristic green emission bands and one red emission band were situated at 527, 548 and 670 nm, corresponding to the transitions 2H11/2 → 4I15/2, 4S3/2 → 4I15/2 and 4F9/2 → 4I15/2, respectively. The optimal photoluminescence (PL) were found in the NBT-BIT-0.20Er sample, and the emission color transforms from green to yellowish green. Temperature dependence of fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) for NBT-BIT-0.20Er was measured ranging from 290 to 440 K and its maximum sensitivity was calculated to be about 0.0020 K-1 at 290 K. Dielectric measurements indicated that Tc slightly increased simultaneously with the decrease of tanS. Therefore, this ceramic has potential applications for high-temperature multifunctional devices.展开更多

文摘The current electromagnetic environment brings a growing demand for efficient microwave absorption(MA)materials.Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene,one of the 2D transition-metal carbides,is considered to be a promising MA material owing to its superior dielectric properties and structural processability.In order to further improve the MA performance and environmental adaptability of Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene,Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene-based MA materials enhanced by composition and structure design have been extensively studied and the regu-lation ideas for its MA properties can be outlined as component optimization and structure manipulation strategies based on the microwave absorption mechanism.Herein,we briefly introduced the microwave absorption mechanism and focused on the design strategies of Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene-based MA materials based on recent advances.In addition,the prospects of Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene-based MA materials were also discussed.

文摘The development of multifunctional materials and synergistic applications of various functions are important conditions for integrated and miniaturized equipment.Here,we developed asymmetric MXene/aramid nanofibers/polyimides(AMAP)aerogels with different modules using an integrated molding process.Cleverly asymmetric modules(layered MXene/aramid nanofibers section and porous MXene/aramid nanofibers/polyimides section)interactions are beneficial for enhanced performances,resulting in low reflection electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding(specific shielding effectiveness of 2483(dB·cm^(3))/g and a low R-value of 0.0138),high-efficiency infrared radiation(IR)stealth(ultra-low thermal conductivity of 0.045 W/(m·K)and IR emissivity of 0.32 at 3–5μm and 0.28 at 8–14μm),and excellent thermal management performances of insulated Joule heating.Furthermore,these multifunctional AMAP aerogels are suitable for various application scenarios such as personal and building protection against electromagnetic pollution and cold,as well as military equipment protection against infrared detection and EMI.

文摘The change of fluorescence emission manipulated by spin state transition attracts considerable attention owing to its potential applications in magneto-optical switching devices.Herein,we report two two-dimensional(2D)Hofmann-type spin crossover(SCO)metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)[Fe^(Ⅱ)(PNI)_(2){Ag^(Ⅰ)(CN)_(2)}_(2)]·CHCl_(3)(3Ag·CHCl_(3))and[FeⅡ(PNI)_(2){AuⅠ(CN)_(2)}_(2)]·CHCl_(3)(3Au·CHCl_(3))based on the fluorescent ligand N-(4-pyridylmethyl)-1,8-naphthalimide(PNI).Both complexes exhibit interesting SCO behaviors switched by guest solvent molecules,namely three-step transitions for the solvated complexes and complete onestep hysteretic SCO for the desolvated ones,verified by temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements,Mossbauer spectra,structural analyses,and differential scanning calorimetry measurements.Correspondingly,temperature-dependent fluorescence spectra exhibit double peaks(monomer and excimer emission)with both emission peaks change consistent with the change in SCO properties during the solvent molecule removal.In this study,we integrated guest-responsive SCO behavior into MOFs to manipulate the multistability of spin state and fluorescence switching,providing a rational strategy for the development of stimuli-responsive multifunctional materials.

文摘Human skin perceives external environmental stimulus by the synergies between the subcutaneous tactile corpuscles.Soft electronics with multiple sensing capabilities by mimicking the function of human skin are of significance in health monitoring and artificial sensation.The last decade has witnessed unprecedented development and convergence between multimodal tactile sensing devices and soft bioelectronics.Despite these advances,traditional flexible electronics achieve multimodal tactile sensing for pressure,strain,temperature,and humidity by integrating monomodal sensing devices together.This strategy results in high energy consumption,limited integration,and complex manufacturing process.Various multimodal sensors and crosstalk-free sensing mechanisms have been proposed to bridge the gap between natural sensory system and artificial perceptual system.In this review,we provide a comprehensive summary of tactile sensing mechanism,integration design principles,signal-decoupling strategies,and current applications for multimodal tactile perception.Finally,we highlight the current challenges and present the future perspectives to promote the development of multimodal tactile perception.

文摘Two-dimensional(2D)organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites(OIHPs)have attracted phenomenal attention because of their superior optoelectronic performances.The combination of their structural tunability and material stability offers an unprecedented opportunity to engineer materials with unique functionalities.However,developing a rapid and effective design method for introducing luminescence into dielectric switch and realizing controllable regulation has been an enormous challenge.Thus far,materials with tunable optoelectronic multichannel response have not been successfully implemented.In this study,we successfully developed a facile and effective mechanochemical method for realizing the integration and regulation of luminescence and dielectric switch in 2D perovskites,which is unprecedented for the design of dielectric switching materials.The mild external mechanical stimuli enabled the formation of Mn ion-doped 2D hybrid perovskites(Cyclopropylammonium)2Pb1-xMnxBr4 with excellent dielectric switch and rapidly controllable luminescence of highly efficient blue light,white light,pink light,and orange light.This work will provide a new perspective on the rapid and effective design of multifunctional materials and can inspire the future development of low-cost and high-efficiency electronics.

文摘The sluggish redox reaction kinetics of lithium polysulfides(LiPSs)are considered the main obstacle to the commercial application of lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries.To accelerate the conversion by catalysis and inhibit the shuttling of soluble LiPSs in Li-S batteries,a solution is proposed in this study.The solution involves fabrication of N,S co-doped carbon coated In_(2)O_(3)/In_(2)S_(3)heterostructure(In_(2)O_(3)-In_(2)S_(3)@NSC)as a multifunctional host material for the cathode.The In_(2)O_(3)-In_(2)S_(3)@NSC composite can reduce the Gibbs free energy for the conversion reactions of LiPSs,which results in superior performance.The synergy between different components in In_(2)O_(3)-In_(2)S_(3)@NSC and the unique 3D structure facilitate ion and electron transport in Li-S batteries.The In_(2)O_(3)-In_(2)S_(3)@NSC/Li 2 S 6 cathode exhibits excellent rate capacity,with a capacity of 599 mAh g−1 at 5.5 C,and good cycle stability,with a capacity of 436 mAh g^(−1)after 1000 cycles at 1 C.Overall,this study proposes a promising solution to improve the energy storage properties of Li-S batteries,which could potentially facilitate the commercialization of Li-S batteries.

文摘A multifunctional material with both electrorheological(ER) performance and luminescence property was synthesized by a simple coprecipitation. The tetrabutyl titanate, as well as the Tb(NO3)3·6H2O and sulphosalicylic acid(C7H6O6S·2H2O, SSA) were chosen as starting materials. The composition, ER performance and luminescence property of the material were studied. The results showed that a novel material(TiTbSSA) with both ER performance and luminescence property was obtained. The relative shear stress τr(τr=τE/τ0, τE and τ0 were the shear stresses of the suspension with and without an applied electric field) of the suspension(30 wt.%) of the material in silicone oil reached 32.7 at a shear rate of 12.5 s–1 and an electric field strength of 4 kV/mm(DC electric field). The material containing the rare earth(RE=Tb) complex exhibited fine luminescence performance and higher ER activity. Therefore, it is a novel multifunction material which would have wide application prospect.

文摘During the last decade,tissue engineering has shown a considerable promise in providing more viable alternatives to surgical procedures for harvested tissues,implants and prostheses.Due to the fast development on nano-and biomaterial technologies,it is now possible for doctors to use patients’cells to repair orthopaedic defects such as focal articular cartilage lesions.In order to support the three-dimensional tissue formation,scaffolds made by biocompatible and bioresorbable polymers and composite materials,for providing temporary support of damaged body and cell structures,have been developed recently.Although ceramic and metallic materials have been widely accepted for the development of implants,their non-resorbability and necessity of second surgical operation(like for bone repair),which induce extra pain for the patients,limit their wide applications.The development of different types of biocomposites for biomedical engineering applications is described.These biocomposites include(i)basic biomaterials;(ii)natural fiber-reinforced biocomposites and(iii)nanoparticle-reinforced biocomposites.Their multifunctionality is discussed in terms of the control of mechanical properties,biodegradability and bioresorbability.

文摘Stable organic luminescent radicals are a special class of compounds integrating optical,electrical,and magnetic properties.Luminescent radicals not only have potential applications in the field of the organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs)but can also be applied in the fields of fluorescence sensing,bioimaging,and so forth.Nevertheless,due to the adverse effects of solvent polarity on the luminescent performance of radicals,no feasible approaches have been found in the literature toward fluorescent sensing.In this work,we report two luminescent radicals,2αPyID-TTM and 2δPyID-TTM,whose emissions show high efficiency and less dependence on solvent polarity.Both radicals show remarkable protonation–deprotonation properties.Besides,2αPyID-TTM exhibits significant fluorescence quenching and colorimetric response toward Fe^(3+)in aqueous solution.This suggests the possibility of a fluorometric/colorimetric dual-channel probe for Fe^(3+).Moreover,an optimized OLED using 2δPyID-TTM as an emissive dopant shows pure red emission and a maximum external quantum efficiency(EQE)of 10.6%.These results show promise for luminescent radicals as fluorescent probes and electroluminescent emitters.

文摘Metal–organic frameworks(MOFs)represent a unique class of porous materialswith tremendous potential for diverse applications.A key factor contributing totheir versatility is their ability to precisely introduce functional groups at specificpositions within pores and crystals.This review explores two prominent strategiesfor achieving the positional functionalization of MOFs:post-synthetic ligand exchange(PSE)and MOF-on-MOF.In PSE,the existing ligands within solid-stateMOFs can be selectively replaced by the desired functional groups in solutionthrough ligand dynamics.This invasive functionalization provides a flexibleapproach to fine-tuning the surface of the MOFs with the target functionality.Conversely,MOF-on-MOF strategies are additive methodologies involving thecontrolled growth of one MOF layer onto another.The functionality of the core andshell(or surface)can be independently controlled.This review critically examinesthe examples,strengths,limitations,and applications of these strategies,emphasizingtheir significance in advancing the field of MOF functionalization andpaving the way for tailored multifunctional materials with precise and specificproperties.

文摘Dedicating to the exploration of efficient electromagnetic(EM)absorption and electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding materials is the main strategy to solve the EM radiation issues.The development of multifunction EM attenuation materials that are compatible together EM absorption and EMI shielding properties is deserved our exploration and study.Here,the graphenewrapped multiloculated NiFe_(2)O_(4) composites are reported as multifunction EM absorbing and EMI shielding materials.The conductive networks configurated by the overlapping flexible graphene promote the riched polarization genes,as well as electron transmission paths,and thus optimize the dielectric constant of the composites.Meanwhile,the introduction of magnetic NiFe_(2)O_(4) further establishes the magnetic-dielectric synergy effect.The abundant non-homogeneous interfaces not only generate effective interfacial polarization,also the deliberate multiloculated structure of NiFe_(2)O_(4) strengthens multi-scattering and multi-reflection sites to expand the transmission path of EM waves.As it turns out,the best impedance matching is matched at a lower filled concentration to achieve the strongest reflection loss value of−48.1 dB.Simultaneously,green EMI shielding based on a predominantly EM absorption and dissipation is achieved by an enlargement of the filled concentration,which is helpful to reduce the secondary EM wave reflection pollution to the environment.In addition,the electrocatalytic properties are further examined.The graphene-wrapped multiloculated NiFe_(2)O_(4) shows the well electrocatalytic activity as electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)and oxygen evolution reaction(OER),which is mainly attributed to the interconnected structures formed by graphene and NiFe_(2)O_(4) connection.The structural advantages of multiloculated NiFe_(2)O_(4) expose more active sites,which plays an important role in optimizing catalytic reactions.This work provides an excellent jumping-off point for the development of multifunction EM absorbing materials,eco-friendliness EMI shielding materials and electrocatalysts.

文摘Na0.5Bi4.5-xEuxTi4O15 (NBT-xEu^3+) ceramics with x= 0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30 and 0.40 were prepared by conventional ceramics processing. NBT-0.25Eu^3+ ceramics show the strongest red and orange emissions corresponding to the 5D0 → 7F2 (617 nm) and 5D0→ 7F1 (596 nm) transitions, respectively. The strongest excitation band around 465 nm matches well with the emission wavelength of commercial InGaN-based blue LED chip, indicating that Eu^3+-doped NBT ceramics may be used as potential environmental friendly red-orange phosphor for W-LEDs application. As an inherent ferroelectric and piezoelectric material, the electrical properties of this potentially multifunctional electro-optical material have been also studied. The introduction of Eu^3+ distinctly increased the Curie temperature (Tc) of NBT-xEu^3+ ceramics from 640℃ to 711℃ as x ranges from 0 to 0.40. For higher temperature applications, the electrical conductivity was also investigated. The conduction of charge carriers in hightemperature range originates from the conducting electrons from the ionization of oxygen vacancies. High Tc and low tanδ makes Eu^3+-doped NBT ceramic also suitable for high temperature piezoelectric sensor applications and electro-optical integration.

文摘The rapid development of flexible triboelectric nanogenerators(TENGs)has become an alternative to batteries for wearable devices.Stretchable,multifunctional,and low-cost are the primary development directions for these wearable devices based on TENG.Herein,a stretchable triboelectric generator with coplanar integration was designed for energy harvesting and force sensing.The industrial conductive silicone and silicone were used to fabricate the TENG with a thickness of less than 0.9 mm.When the elongation was less than 150%,TENG exhibited excellent linear characteristics in the resistance-tensile strain correspondence,and the coefficient of determination was 0.99.This stretchable TENG with a sufficient contact area of 9 cm^(2) could generate a short-circuit current of 2μA when it was in contact with the skin.Lastly,an intelligent tension monitoring wearable device that can effectively measure the tensile force was developed.Such a stretchable,coplanar integration-based,and low-cost wearable device has excellent applicability in wearable electronics.

文摘Upconversion (UC) and electrical properties of Na0.5Bi8.5-xErxTi7O27 (NBT-BIT-xEr, 0.00≤x≤0.25) ceramics were studied. Structural analysis revealed that a single inter-growth structured phase exists in all samples and the Er3+ ion substituting for Bi3+ at the A-site increases the orthorhombic distortion. Under the 980 nm laser excitation, two characteristic green emission bands and one red emission band were situated at 527, 548 and 670 nm, corresponding to the transitions 2H11/2 → 4I15/2, 4S3/2 → 4I15/2 and 4F9/2 → 4I15/2, respectively. The optimal photoluminescence (PL) were found in the NBT-BIT-0.20Er sample, and the emission color transforms from green to yellowish green. Temperature dependence of fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) for NBT-BIT-0.20Er was measured ranging from 290 to 440 K and its maximum sensitivity was calculated to be about 0.0020 K-1 at 290 K. Dielectric measurements indicated that Tc slightly increased simultaneously with the decrease of tanS. Therefore, this ceramic has potential applications for high-temperature multifunctional devices.
