Electrochemical gating-induced reversible and drastic resistance switching in VO2 nanowires.

ABSTRACT: Reversible and drastic modulation of the transport properties in vanadium dioxide (VO2) nanowires by electric field-induced hydrogenation at room temperature was demonstrated using the nanogaps separated by humid air in field-effect transistors with planer-type gates (PG-FET). These PG-FETs allowed us to investigate behavior of revealed hydrogen intercalation and diffusion aspects with time and spatial evolutions in nanowires. These results show that air nanogaps can operate as an electrochemical reaction field, even in a gaseous atmosphere, and offer new directions to explore emerging functions for electronic and energy devices in oxides.

Reversible switching between pressure-induced amorphization and thermal-driven recrystallization in VO2(B) nanosheets.

Project description:Pressure-induced amorphization (PIA) and thermal-driven recrystallization have been observed in many crystalline materials. However, controllable switching between PIA and a metastable phase has not been described yet, due to the challenge to establish feasible switching methods to control the pressure and temperature precisely. Here, we demonstrate a reversible switching between PIA and thermally-driven recrystallization of VO2(B) nanosheets. Comprehensive in situ experiments are performed to establish the precise conditions of the reversible phase transformations, which are normally hindered but occur with stimuli beyond the energy barrier. Spectral evidence and theoretical calculations reveal the pressure-structure relationship and the role of flexible VOx polyhedra in the structural switching process. Anomalous resistivity evolution and the participation of spin in the reversible phase transition are observed for the first time. Our findings have significant implications for the design of phase switching devices and the exploration of hidden amorphous materials.

Mechanotransduction-Induced Reversible Phenotypic Switching in Prostate Cancer Cells.

Project description:Phenotypic plasticity is posed to be a vital trait of cancer cells such as circulating tumor cells, allowing them to undergo reversible or irreversible switching between phenotypic states important for tumorigenesis and metastasis. While irreversible phenotypic switching can be detected by studying the genome, reversible phenotypic switching is often difficult to examine due to its dynamic nature and the lack of knowledge about its contributing factors. In this study, we demonstrate that culturing cells in different physical environments, stiff, soft, or suspension, induced a phenotypic switch in prostate cancer cells via mechanotransduction. The mechanosensitive phenotypic switching in prostate cancer cells was sustainable yet reversible even after long-term culture, demonstrating the impact of mechanical signals on prostate cancer cell phenotypes. Importantly, such a mechanotransduction-mediated phenotypic switch in prostate cancer cells was accompanied by decreased sensitivity of the cells to paclitaxel, suggesting a role of mechanotransduction in the evolution of drug resistance. Multiple signaling pathways such as p38MAPK, ERK, and Wnt were found to be involved in the mechanotransduction-induced phenotypic switching of prostate cancer cells. Given that cancer cells experience different physical environments during disease progression, this study provides useful information about the important role of mechanotransduction in cancer, and how circulating tumor cells may be capable of continuously changing their phenotypes throughout the disease process.

Controlled synthesis of Ni/CuOx/Ni nanowires by electrochemical deposition with self-compliance bipolar resistive switching.

Project description:We demonstrate synthesis of Ni/CuOx/Ni nanowires (NWs) by electrochemical deposition on anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) membranes. AAO with pore diameter of ~70 nm and pore length of ~50 μm was used as the template for synthesis of NWs. After deposition of Au as the seed layer, NWs with a structure of Ni/CuOx/Ni were grown with a length of ~12 μm. The lengths of 1(st) Ni, CuOx, and 2(nd) Ni were ~4.5 μm, ~3 μm, and ~4.5 μm, respectively. The Ni/CuOx/Ni device exhibits bipolar resistive switching behavior with self-compliance characteristics. Due to the spatial restriction of the current path in NW the Ni/CuOx/Ni NW devices are thought to exhibit self-compliance behaviour. Ni/CuOx/Ni NWs showed bipolar resistive changes possibly due to conducting filaments that are induced by oxygen vacancies. The reliability of the devices was confirmed by data retention measurement. The NW-based resistive switching memory has applications in highly scalable memory devices and neuromorphic devices.

Operando characterization of conductive filaments during resistive switching in Mott VO2.

Project description:Vanadium dioxide (VO2) has attracted much attention owing to its metal-insulator transition near room temperature and the ability to induce volatile resistive switching, a key feature for developing novel hardware for neuromorphic computing. Despite this interest, the mechanisms for nonvolatile switching functioning as synapse in this oxide remain not understood. In this work, we use in situ transmission electron microscopy, electrical transport measurements, and numerical simulations on Au/VO2/Ge vertical devices to study the electroforming process. We have observed the formation of V5O9 conductive filaments with a pronounced metal-insulator transition and that vacancy diffusion can erase the filament, allowing for the system to "forget." Thus, both volatile and nonvolatile switching can be achieved in VO2, useful to emulate neuronal and synaptic behaviors, respectively. Our systematic operando study of the filament provides a more comprehensive understanding of resistive switching, key in the development of resistive switching-based neuromorphic computing.

Self-assembly and horizontal orientation growth of VO2 nanowires.

Project description:Single-crystalline vanadium dioxide (VO2) nanostructures have attracted an intense research interest recently because of their unique single-domain metal-insulator phase transition property. Synthesis of these nanostructures in the past was limited in density, alignment, or single-crystallinity. The assembly of VO2 nanowires (NWs) is desirable for a "bottom-up" approach to the engineering of intricate structures using nanoscale building blocks. Here, we report the successful synthesis of horizontally aligned VO2 NWs with a dense growth mode in the [1-100]quartz direction of a polished x-cut quartz surface using a simple vapor transport method. Our strategy of controlled growth of VO2 NWs promisingly paves the way for designing novel metal-insulator transition devices based on VO2 NWs.

Optically Induced Ferroelectric Polarization Switching in a Molecular Ferroelectric with Reversible Photoisomerization.

Project description:Ferroelectrics usually exhibit temperature-triggered structural changes, which play crucial roles in controlling their physical properties. However, although light is very striking as a non-contact, non-destructive, and remotely controlled external stimuli, ferroelectric crystals with light-triggered structural changes are very rare, which holds promise for optical control of ferroelectric properties. Here, an organic molecular ferroelectric, N-salicylidene-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluoroaniline (SA-PFA), which shows light-triggered structural change of reversible photoisomerization between cis-enol and trans-keto configuration is reported. SA-PFA presents clear ferroelectricity with the saturate polarization of 0.84 μC cm-2 , larger than those of some typical organic ferroelectrics with thermodynamically structural changes. Benefit from the reversible photoisomerization, the dielectric real part of SA-PFA can be reversibly switched by light. More strikingly, the photoisomerization enables SA-PFA to show reversible optically induced ferroelectric polarization switching. Such intriguing behaviors make SPFA a potential candidate for application in next-generation photo-controlled ferroelectric devices. This work sheds light on further exploration of more excellent molecular ferroelectrics with light-triggered structural changes for optical control of ferroelectric properties.

Reversible superconductor-insulator transition in LiTi2O4 induced by Li-ion electrochemical reaction.

Project description:Transition metal oxides display various electronic and magnetic phases such as high-temperature superconductivity. Controlling such exotic properties by applying an external field is one of the biggest continuous challenges in condensed matter physics. Here, we demonstrate clear superconductor-insulator transition of LiTi2O4 films induced by Li-ion electrochemical reaction. A compact electrochemical cell of pseudo-Li-ion battery structure is formed with a superconducting LiTi2O4 film as an anode. Li content in the film is controlled by applying a constant redox voltage. An insulating state is achieved by Li-ion intercalation to the superconducting film by applying reduction potential. In contrast, the superconducting state is reproduced by applying oxidation potential to the Li-ion intercalated film. Moreover, superconducting transition temperature is also recovered after a number of cycles of Li-ion electrochemical reactions. This complete reversible transition originates in difference in potentials required for deintercalation of initially contained and electrochemically intercalated Li(+) ions.

Electrochemical Detection of Acetaminophen with Silicon Nanowires.

Project description:Acetaminophen (APAP) is an antipyretic, analgesic agent, the overdose of which during medical treatment poses a risk for liver failure. Hence, it is important to develop methods to monitor physiological APAP levels to avoid APAP. Here, we report an efficient, selective electrochemical APAP sensor made from depositing silicon nanowires (SiNWs) onto glassy carbon electrodes (GCEs). Electrocatalytic activity of the SiNW/GCE sensors was monitored under varying pH and concentrations of APAP using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry (CA). CV of the SiNWs at 0.5 to 13 mmol dm-3 APAP concentrations was used to determine the oxidation and reduction potential of APAP. The selective detection of APAP was then demonstrated using CA at +0.568 V vs Ag/AgCl, where APAP is fully oxidized, in the 0.01 to 3 mmol dm-3 concentration range with potentially-interfering species. The SiNW sensor has the ability to detect APAP well within the detection limits for APAP toxicity, showing promise as a practical biosensor.

Electrochemical Oxidation Induced Multi-Level Memory in Carbon-Based Resistive Switching Devices.

Project description:In this work, we report for the first time the electrochemical oxidation as a technique to improve the electrical performances of carbon-based resistive switching devices. The devices obtained through the anodic oxidation of carbon-structures possess superior electrical performances i.e. a 3-level memory behavior and an ON/OFF ratio two order of magnitude higher than the non-oxidized carbon-based devices. It is demonstrated that the chemical composition of the carbon structures (i.e. percentage of oxygen groups, sp2 and sp3 carbon atoms) plays a key role in the improvement of the carbon-based devices. The electrochemical oxidation allows the possibility to control the oxidation degree, and therefore, to tailor the devices electrical performances. We demonstrated that the resistive switching behavior in the electrochemically oxidized devices is originated from the formation of conductive filament paths, which are built from the oxygen vacancies and structural defects of the anodic oxidized carbon materials. The novelty of this work relies on the anodic oxidation as a time- and cost-effective technique that can be employed for the engineering and improvement of the electrical performances of next generation carbon-based resistive switching devices.
