Atomic Simulation of Nanoindentation on the Regular Wrinkled Graphene Sheet.

Project description:Surface landscapes have vague impact on the mechanical properties of graphene. In this paper, single-layered graphene sheets (SLGS) with regular wrinkles were first constructed by applying shear deformation using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and then indented to extract their mechanical properties. The influence of the boundary condition of SLGS were considered. The wrinkle features and wrinkle formation processes of SLGS were found to be significantly related to the boundary conditions as well as the applied shear displacement and velocity. The wrinkling amplitude and degree of wrinkling increased with the increase in the applied shear displacements, and the trends of wrinkling wavelengths changed with the different boundary conditions. With the fixed boundary condition, the degree of graphene wrinkling was only affected when the velocity was greater than a certain value. The effect of wrinkles on the mechanical characterization of SLGS by atomic force microscopy (AFM) nanoindentation was finally investigated. The regular surface wrinkling of SLGS was found to weaken the Young's modulus of graphene. The Young's modulus of graphene deteriorates with the increase in the degree of regular wrinkling.

Nanoindentation of Graphene-Reinforced Silica Aerogel: A Molecular Dynamics Study.

Project description:In the present work, we performed nanoindentation tests using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on graphene, native silica aerogels, and single- and multi-layered graphene-reinforced silica aerogel nanocomposites. This work mainly focused on the two aspects of nanoindentation simulations: first, the resultant indentation force-depth curves, and second, the associated mechanical deformation behavior. We found that in the single-layer graphene-reinforced silica aerogel nanocomposite, the indentation resistance was four-fold that of native silica aerogels. Moreover, the combined system proved to be higher in stiffness compared to the individual material. Furthermore, the indentation resistance was increased significantly as we proceeded from single- to two-layered graphene-reinforced silica aerogel nanocomposites. The results of the study provide a detailed understanding of the mechanical behavior during the indentation tests of nanocomposites, which helps to design advanced nanoscale multi-layered materials.

On the failure load and mechanism of polycrystalline graphene by nanoindentation.

Project description:Nanoindentation has been recently used to measure the mechanical properties of polycrystalline graphene. However, the measured failure loads are found to be scattered widely and vary from lab to lab. We perform molecular dynamics simulations of nanoindentation on polycrystalline graphene at different sites including grain center, grain boundary (GB), GB triple junction, and holes. Depending on the relative position between the indenter tip and defects, significant scattering in failure load is observed. This scattering is found to arise from a combination of the non-uniform stress state, varied and weakened strengths of different defects, and the relative location between the indenter tip and the defects in polycrystalline graphene. Consequently, the failure behavior of polycrystalline graphene by nanoindentation is critically dependent on the indentation site, and is thus distinct from uniaxial tensile loading. Our work highlights the importance of the interaction between the indentation tip and defects, and the need to explicitly consider the defect characteristics at and near the indentation site in polycrystalline graphene during nanoindentation.

Microstructure and nanoindentation behavior of Cu composites reinforced with graphene nanoplatelets by electroless co-deposition technique.

Project description:A reduced graphene oxide/copper (RGO/Cu) composite was fabricated by a surfactant free, electroless co-deposition technique. The graphene oxide (GO) sheets were reduced and RGO homogeneous distributed into the copper matrix. On the basis of nanoindentation, the presence of RGO and the increase of its content in matrix significantly raised the hardness of RGO/Cu composites. Here, the relevant strengthening effect and mechanisms involved in RGO-reinforced Cu composites were systematically evaluated. Especially, the addition of RGO in Cu matrix led to the compressive micro-strain, and the resulted distortion of the lattice parameter was calculated based on Cohen's method. However, excessive addition of GO in the electrolyte could decrease the mechanical performance due to agglomeration of RGO. Apparently, the optimal concentration for GO dispersion in co-deposition solution was deserved to discuss. After a serious of relative experiments, we could get a conclusion that this method provided a new pathway for embedded graphene into the metal matrix to improve the mechanical properties of RGO-reinforced materials.

Magnetic field tunable small-scale mechanical properties of nickel single crystals measured by nanoindentation technique.

Project description:Nano- and micromagnetic materials have been extensively employed in micro-functional devices. However, measuring small-scale mechanical and magnetomechanical properties is challenging, which restricts the design of new products and the performance of smart devices. A new magnetomechanical nanoindentation technique is developed and tested on a nickel single crystal in the absence and presence of a saturated magnetic field. Small-scale parameters such as Young's modulus, indentation hardness, and plastic index are dependent on the applied magnetic field, which differ greatly from their macroscale counterparts. Possible mechanisms that induced 31% increase in modulus and 7% reduction in hardness (i.e., the flexomagnetic effect and the interaction between dislocations and magnetic field, respectively) are analyzed and discussed. Results could be useful in the microminiaturization of applications, such as tunable mechanical resonators and magnetic field sensors.

Controlled assembly of graphene-capped nickel, cobalt and iron silicides.

Project description:The unique properties of graphene have raised high expectations regarding its application in carbon-based nanoscale devices that could complement or replace traditional silicon technology. This gave rise to the vast amount of researches on how to fabricate high-quality graphene and graphene nanocomposites that is currently going on. Here we show that graphene can be successfully integrated with the established metal-silicide technology. Starting from thin monocrystalline films of nickel, cobalt and iron, we were able to form metal silicides of high quality with a variety of stoichiometries under a Chemical Vapor Deposition grown graphene layer. These graphene-capped silicides are reliably protected against oxidation and can cover a wide range of electronic materials/device applications. Most importantly, the coupling between the graphene layer and the silicides is rather weak and the properties of quasi-freestanding graphene are widely preserved.

DAS graphene-based feeder-free culture system for human induced pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Graphene has been selected as a candidate for synthetic feeder-free culture substrate guiding human/mouse multipotent stem cell lineage specification, and culturing pluripotent stem cells in a number of studies. However, conventional graphene is not an ideal biomaterial to maintain the pluripotency of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) including hESCs/hiPSCs due to its intrinsic hydrophobicity and relatively flat surface topography. Here, we applied morphology-controlled nanocrystalline graphene (NG) coating onto the culture substrates via diffusion-associated synthesis (DAS) process and cultivated hPSCs. It is found that enhanced hydrophilicity and controlled surface roughness of DAS-NG enabled tight focal adhesion of hPSCs onto the DAS-NG coated culture substrate and retained pluripotency for over 2 weeks. It is also found hPSCs grown on DAS-NG shared comparable global gene expression profile with hPSCs grown on mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF). Importantly, the similarities in cell adhesion gene expression between hPSCs grown on DAS-NG and hPSCs on MEF suggest DAS-NG may provide comparable physical cues with MEF for sustaining pluripotency. Taken together, our findings show a new reliable method for culturing hPSCs in feeder-free condition using DAS-graphene. Human iPSCs and human ESC H9 were seeded onto DAS-NG coated glass, ITO or QU, CVD-grown graphene coated glass, uncoated glass and mitomycin-C treated CF1. Human pluripotent stem cells seeded on each culture substrate were cultured in human embryonic stem cell medium composed of knockout DMEM (GIBCO-10829) supplemented with 20% knockout serum replacement (GIBCO-10828), 1mM L-glutamine, 1% penicillin/streptomycin (PAA-P11-010), 1% MEM-non essential amino acid (PAA-M11-003), 0.1mM beta-mercaptoethanol, and 5ng/ml human basic fibroblast growth factor.

Graphene/Nickel Oxide-Based Nanocomposite of Polyaniline with Special Reference to Ammonia Sensing.

Project description:Polyaniline@graphene/nickel oxide (Pani@GN/NiO), polyaniline/graphene (Pani/GN), and polyaniline/nickel oxide (Pani/NiO) nanocomposites and polyaniline (Pani) were successfully synthesized and tested for ammonia sensing. Pani@GN/NiO, Pani/NiO, Pani/GN, and Pani were characterized using X-ray diffraction, UV-vis spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The as-prepared materials were studied for comparative dc electrical conductivity and the change in their electrical conductivity on exposure to ammonia vapors followed by ambient air at room temperature. It was observed that the incorporation of GN/NiO in Pani showed about 99 times greater amplitude of conductivity change than pure Pani on exposure to ammonia vapors followed by ambient air. The fast response and excellent recovery time could probably be ascribed to the relatively high surface area of the Pani@GN/NiO nanocomposite, proper sensing channels, and efficaciously available active sites. Pani@GN/NiO was observed to show better selectivity toward ammonia because of the comparatively high basic nature of ammonia than other volatile organic compounds tested. The sensing mechanism was explained on the basis of the simple acid-base chemistry of Pani.

Facile Fabrication of Nickel Supported on Reduced Graphene Oxide Composite for Oxygen Reduction Reaction.

Project description:Due to the depletion of fossil fuels, the demand for renewable energy has increased, thus stimulating the development of novel materials for energy conversion devices such as fuel cells. In this work, nickel nanoparticles loaded on reduced graphene oxide (Ni/rGO) with small size and good dispersibility were successfully prepared by controlling the pyrolysis temperature of the precursor at 450 °C, assisted by a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method, and exhibited enhanced electrocatalytic activity towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Additionally, the electron enrichment on Ni NPs was due to charge transfer from the rGO support to metal nickel, as evidenced by both experimental and theoretical studies. Metal-support interactions between nickel and the rGO support also facilitated charge transfer, contributing to the enhanced ORR performance of the composite material. DFT calculations revealed that the first step (from O2 to HOO*) was the rate-determining step with an RDS energy barrier lower than that of the Pt(111), indicating favorable ORR kinetics. The HOO* intermediates can be transferred onto rGO by the solid-phase spillover effect, which reduces the chemical adsorption on the nickel surface, thereby allowing continuous regeneration of active nickel sites. The HO2- intermediates generated on the surface of rGO by 2e- reduction can also efficiently diffuse towards the nearby Ni surface or the interface of Ni/rGO, where they can be further rapidly reduced to OH-. This mechanism acts as the pseudo-four-electron path on the RRDE. Furthermore, Ni/rGO-450 demonstrated superior stability, methanol tolerance, and durability compared to a 20 wt% Pt/C catalyst, making it a cost-effective alternative to conventional noble metal ORR catalysts for fuel cells or metal-air batteries.
