Rough Electrode Creates Excess Capacitance in Thin-Film Capacitors.

Project description:The parallel-plate capacitor equation is widely used in contemporary material research for nanoscale applications and nanoelectronics. To apply this equation, flat and smooth electrodes are assumed for a capacitor. This essential assumption is often violated for thin-film capacitors because the formation of nanoscale roughness at the electrode interface is very probable for thin films grown via common deposition methods. In this work, we experimentally and theoretically show that the electrical capacitance of thin-film capacitors with realistic interface roughness is significantly larger than the value predicted by the parallel-plate capacitor equation. The degree of the deviation depends on the strength of the roughness, which is described by three roughness parameters for a self-affine fractal surface. By applying an extended parallel-plate capacitor equation that includes the roughness parameters of the electrode, we are able to calculate the excess capacitance of the electrode with weak roughness. Moreover, we introduce the roughness parameter limits for which the simple parallel-plate capacitor equation is sufficiently accurate for capacitors with one rough electrode. Our results imply that the interface roughness beyond the proposed limits cannot be dismissed unless the independence of the capacitance from the interface roughness is experimentally demonstrated. The practical protocols suggested in our work for the reliable use of the parallel-plate capacitor equation can be applied as general guidelines in various fields of interest.

Dataset N-doping of alumina thin film support of catalysts.

Project description:The search for the ways of thermal stabilization of supported metal catalysts is an important challenge in the modern catalysis. Chemical modification of support seems to be the most versatile approach to stabilize the metal particles against sintering and alter their catalytic performance. Also for such modification nitrogen doping can be used and is considered rather perspective. In a recent manuscript (A.M. Dmitrachkov, R.I. Kvon, A.V. Nartova, N-doping of alumina thin film support to improve the thermal stability of catalysts: preparation and investigation, Appl. Surf. Sci.) we have developed the procedure of N-doping of alumina thin film grown at the surface of metal substrate. Proposed N-doped model alumina support is suitable for catalysis - oriented surface science studies and improves the resistance of supported metal particles against thermal driven sintering. Herein, we provide useful complementary data for the characterization of the prepared materials in the form of: in situ / ex situ XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) spectra at every stage of sample preparation, including angle resolved XPS experiments and thermal stability tests; STM (scanning tunneling microscopy) images of supported gold catalysts. Presented data support the proposed mechanism of film formation and modification.

Iridescence-controlled and flexibly tunable retroreflective structural color film for smart displays.

Project description:Structural color materials, which use nano- or microstructures to reflect specific wavelengths of ambient white light, have drawn much attention owing to their wide applications ranging from optoelectronics, coatings, to energy-efficient reflective displays. Although various structural color materials based on specular or diffuse reflection have been demonstrated, neither efficient retroreflective structural colors nor iridescent and non-iridescent colors to different observers simultaneously were reported by existing artificial or natural structural color materials. Here, we show that by partially embedding a monolayer of polymer microspheres on the sticky side of a transparent tape, the spontaneously formed interferometric structure on the surface of air-cushioned microspheres can lead to unique structural colors that remain non-iridescent under coaxial illumination and viewing conditions, but appear iridescent under noncoaxial illumination and viewing conditions. Our findings demonstrate a smart, energy-efficient, and tunable retroreflective structural color material that is especially suitable for nighttime traffic safety and advertisement display applications.

Fused Metalloporphyrin Thin Film with Tunable Porosity via Chemical Vapor Deposition.

Project description:Porous and highly conjugated multiply fused porphyrin thin films are prepared from a fast and single-step chemical vapor deposition approach. While the solution-based coupling of porphyrins is usually undertaken at room temperature, the gas phase reaction of nickel(II) 5,15-(diphenyl)porphyrin and iron(III) chloride (FeCl3) is investigated for temperatures as high as 200 °C. Helium ion and atomic force microscopy, supported by weight and thickness measurements, shows a drastic decrease of the fused porphyrin thin film's density accompanied by the formation of a mesoporous morphology upon increase of the reaction temperature. The increase of the film's porosity is attributed to formation of a greater amount of HCl (originated from both the oxidative coupling and chlorination reactions) and the release of gaseous FeCl3 byproducts, i.e., Cl2, at higher deposition temperatures. In addition, high resolution mass spectrometry reveals that increase of the reaction temperature promotes a higher degree of conjugation of the fused porphyrins chains, which ensures that high electronic conductivities are maintained along with high porosity. The method reported herein could enable the engineering of fused porphyrin thin films in sensing and catalytic devices.

Widely tunable mid-infrared light emission in thin-film black phosphorus.

Project description:Thin-film black phosphorus (BP) is an attractive material for mid-infrared optoelectronic applications because of its layered nature and a moderate bandgap of around 300 meV. Previous photoconduction demonstrations show that a vertical electric field can effectively reduce the bandgap of thin-film BP, expanding the device operational wavelength range in mid-infrared. Here, we report the widely tunable mid-infrared light emission from a hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)/BP/hBN heterostructure device. With a moderate displacement field up to 0.48 V/nm, the photoluminescence (PL) peak from a ~20-layer BP flake is continuously tuned from 3.7 to 7.7 ?m, spanning 4 ?m in mid-infrared. The PL emission remains perfectly linear-polarized along the armchair direction regardless of the bias field. Moreover, together with theoretical analysis, we show that the radiative decay probably dominates over other nonradiative decay channels in the PL experiments. Our results reveal the great potential of thin-film BP in future widely tunable, mid-infrared light-emitting and lasing applications.

Self-assembled three-dimensional and compressible interdigitated thin-film supercapacitors and batteries.

Project description:Traditional thin-film energy-storage devices consist of stacked layers of active films on two-dimensional substrates and do not exploit the third dimension. Fully three-dimensional thin-film devices would allow energy storage in bulk materials with arbitrary form factors and with mechanical properties unique to bulk materials such as compressibility. Here we show three-dimensional energy-storage devices based on layer-by-layer self-assembly of interdigitated thin films on the surface of an open-cell aerogel substrate. We demonstrate a reversibly compressible three-dimensional supercapacitor with carbon nanotube electrodes and a three-dimensional hybrid battery with a copper hexacyanoferrate ion intercalating cathode and a carbon nanotube anode. The three-dimensional supercapacitor shows stable operation over 400 cycles with a capacitance of 25?F?g(-1) and is fully functional even at compressions up to 75%. Our results demonstrate that layer-by-layer self-assembly inside aerogels is a rapid, precise and scalable route for building high-surface-area 3D thin-film devices.

In Situ Neutron Reflectometry Study of Solid Electrolyte Interface (SEI) Formation on Tungsten Thin-Film Electrodes.

Project description:Tungsten, a non-Li-intercalating material, was used as a platform to study solid-electrolyte interface/interphase (SEI) formation in lithium hexafluorphosphate in mixed diethyl carbonate (DEC)/ethylene carbonate electrolyte solutions using in situ neutron reflectometry (NR). A NR measurement determines the neutron scattering length density (SLD)-depth profile, from which a composition-depth profile can be inferred. Isotopic labeling/contrast variation measurements were conducted using a series of three electrolyte solutions: one with both solvents deuterated, one with neither deuterated, and another with only DEC deuterated. A two-layer SEI formed upon polarization to +0.25 V vs Li/Li+. Insensitivity of the inner SEI layer to solvent deuteration suggested limited incorporation of hydrogen atoms from the solvent molecules. Its low SLD indicates that Li2O could be a major constituent. The outer SEI layer SLD scaled with that of the solution, indicating that it either had solution-filled porosity, incorporated hydrogen atoms from the solvent, or both. Returning the electrode to +2.65 V removed lithium from both surface layers, though the effect was more pronounced for the inner layer. Potential cycling had the effect of increasing the solution-derived species content in the inner SEI and decreased the contrast between the inner and outer layers, possibly indicating intermixing of the layers.

Electrically tunable terahertz metamaterials with embedded large-area transparent thin-film transistor arrays.

Project description:Engineering metamaterials with tunable resonances are of great importance for improving the functionality and flexibility of terahertz (THz) systems. An ongoing challenge in THz science and technology is to create large-area active metamaterials as building blocks to enable efficient and precise control of THz signals. Here, an active metamaterial device based on enhancement-mode transparent amorphous oxide thin-film transistor arrays for THz modulation is demonstrated. Analytical modelling based on full-wave techniques and multipole theory exhibits excellent consistent with the experimental observations and reveals that the intrinsic resonance mode at 0.75?THz is dominated by an electric response. The resonant behavior can be effectively tuned by controlling the channel conductivity through an external bias. Such metal/oxide thin-film transistor based controllable metamaterials are energy saving, low cost, large area and ready for mass-production, which are expected to be widely used in future THz imaging, sensing, communications and other applications.

Stretchable Graphene Thin Film Enabled Yarn Sensors with Tunable Piezoresistivity for Human Motion Monitoring.

Project description:1D graphene based flexible sensors as wearable electronics have recently attracted considerable attentions because of lightweight, high extensibility, easy to wind and weave, and superior sensitivity. In this research, we established a facile and low-cost strategy to construct graphene thin film enabled yarn sensors (GYS) by combining the process of graphene oxide (GO) coating and reducing on polyester (PE) wound spandex yarns. According to systematic processing-property relationship study, a key finding of this work discovers that the degree of resistance recovery as well as gauge sensitivity of GYS can be well controlled and modulated by a pre-stretch treatment. Specifically, as the level of pre-stretch increases from 0 to 60%, the deformable range of sensor that guarantees full resistance recovery prolongs evidently from 0% to ~50%. Meanwhile, the gauge factor of GYS is tunable in the range from 6.40 to 12.06. To understand the pre-stretch process dependent sensing performance, SEM analysis was assisted to evidence the growing size of micro-cracks determining dominantly the behavior of electron transport. Lastly, to take better advantage of GYS, a new wearing mode was demonstrated by direct winding the yarn sensor on varied portions of human body for monitoring different body movements and muscle contracting & relaxing.
