Strain-controlled critical temperature in REBa2Cu3Oy-coated conductors.

ABSTRACT: Recently, we succeeded in detwinning REBa2Cu3O7 (RE123, RE = rare-earth elements)-coated conductors by annealing under an external uniaxial strain. Using the untwinned RE123 tapes, the uniaxial-strain dependencies of the critical temperature Tc along the a and b crystal axes were investigated over a wide strain region from compression to tension. We found that the strain dependencies of Tc for the a and b axes obey a power law but exhibit opposite slopes. In particular, the maximum value of Tc is obtained when the CuO2 plane becomes a square, and its lattice constant is close to 0.385 nm. It is suggested that a tetragonal structure with a ≈ 0.385 nm is the optimum condition for a high critical temperature in high-Tc cuprates.

Temperature-Controlled Direct Imprinting of Ag Ionic Ink: Flexible Metal Grid Transparent Conductors with Enhanced Electromechanical Durability.

Project description:Next-generation transparent conductors (TCs) require excellent electromechanical durability under mechanical deformations as well as high electrical conductivity and transparency. Here we introduce a method for the fabrication of highly conductive, low-porosity, flexible metal grid TCs via temperature-controlled direct imprinting (TCDI) of Ag ionic ink. The TCDI technique based on two-step heating is capable of not only stably capturing the Ag ionic ink, but also reducing the porosity of thermally decomposed Ag nanoparticle structures by eliminating large amounts of organic complexes. The porosity reduction of metal grid TCs on a glass substrate leads to a significant decrease of the sheet resistance from 21.5 to 5.5 Ω sq-1 with an optical transmittance of 91% at λ = 550 nm. The low-porosity metal grid TCs are effectively embedded to uniform, thin and transparent polymer films with negligible resistance changes from the glass substrate having strong interfacial fracture energy (~8.2 J m-2). Finally, as the porosity decreases, the flexible metal grid TCs show a significantly enhanced electromechanical durability under bending stresses. Organic light-emitting diodes based on the flexible metal grid TCs as anode electrodes are demonstrated.

Surface-passivated Cu conductors for high-temperature sulfurous environments.

Project description:Advanced materials capable of withstanding extreme environments garner extensive interest in the development of next-generation advanced anti-corrosion electronics. Herein, we report that the surface passivation of printed copper conductors imparts corrosion resistance in high-temperature sulfurous environments while maintaining a high electrical conductivity of 4.42 MS m-1 when subjected to a sulfur-containing environment at 350 °C for 12 h. This study provides potential for the development of surface-passivated copper conductors that are resistant to the sulfidizing environments found in several applications of modern technology.

Preparing Polypyrrole-Coated Stretchable Textile via Low-Temperature Interfacial Polymerization for Highly Sensitive Strain Sensor.

Project description:The stretchable sensor has been considered as the most important component in a wearable device. However, it is still a great challenge to develop a highly sensitive textile-based strain sensor with good flexibility, excellent skin affinity, and large dynamic range. Herein, polypyrrole (PPy) was immobilized on a stretchable textile knitted by polyester and spandex via low-temperature interfacial polymerization to prepare a conductive strain sensor for human motion and respiration measurements. Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, and thermal gravimetric data verify that a thin layer of PPy has been successfully coated on the textile with a high density and very uniform distribution. The resistance of the as-prepared textile is 21.25 Ω/cm2 and the PPy-coated textile could be used as an electric conductor to light up a LED lamp. Moreover, the textile could tolerate folding at an angle of 180° and 500 times of bending-twisting cycles without significant changes on its resistance. A negative correlation between the resistance change and the applied strain is observed for the textile-based sensor in the strain ranging from 0 to 71% with the gauge factor of -0.46. After more than 200 cycles of stretching-releasing under the strain of 26%, there is no obvious alteration on the sensing responses. The sensors were attached on volunteers' body or clothes for the real-time measurement of human motions and respiration, demonstrating that the textile-based sensor could sensitively detect finger, elbow, and knee bending and differentiate deep, normal, and fast breath. This work may provide an approach to uniform and dense coating conductive polymers on textiles for highly sensitive and stretchable sensors, which possess great potentials in practical applications for real-time monitoring human motions and physiological signs.

High frequency response of thick REBCO coated conductors in the framework of the FCC study.

Project description:A thorough microwave response study of high temperature superconductors, considered as an alternative beam screen coating, has become integral in the design decisions for CERN's future research infrastructure. Here, we present the surface resistance [Formula: see text] of various [Formula: see text] (RE = rare earth) coated conductors available in large scale as a function of magnetic field in a broad temperature range measured by a Hakki-Coleman type resonator with resonant frequency [Formula: see text]. Analysis of the high frequency dissipation supported by DC transport characterization reveals the vortex dynamics in thick [Formula: see text] films. Determined microscopic vortex parameters span over a wide range of magnitudes and reflect the relevance of the superconducting layer's microstructure. We demonstrate that the depinning frequencies [Formula: see text] surpass [Formula: see text], which confirms the operation in high performing, low dissipation pinning regime at measurement conditions. Surface impedance extrapolation to FCC-hh conditions points towards a significant outperformance of copper by coated conductors in terms of surface resistance. The surface resistance margins would open up potential ways for a more efficient frontier circular collider.

Microstructural origin of resistance-strain hysteresis in carbon nanotube thin film conductors.

Project description:A basic need in stretchable electronics for wearable and biomedical technologies is conductors that maintain adequate conductivity under large deformation. This challenge can be met by a network of one-dimensional (1D) conductors, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) or silver nanowires, as a thin film on top of a stretchable substrate. The electrical resistance of CNT thin films exhibits a hysteretic dependence on strain under cyclic loading, although the microstructural origin of this strain dependence remains unclear. Through numerical simulations, analytic models, and experiments, we show that the hysteretic resistance evolution is governed by a microstructural parameter [Formula: see text] (the ratio of the mean projected CNT length over the film length) by showing that [Formula: see text] is hysteretic with strain and that the resistance is proportional to [Formula: see text] The findings are generally applicable to any stretchable thin film conductors consisting of 1D conductors with much lower resistance than the contact resistance in the high-density regime.

Temperature-controlled inhibition of phyB action

Project description:It has been established that the frequently reported early flowering phenotype of the phyB mutant is very sensitive to small changes in ambient temperature (Halliday et al., 2003). A 6oC drop in temperature to 16oC is sufficient to abolish the pronounced early flowering phyB phenotype observed at 22oC. Using Affymetrix technology we will identify genes that are differentially regulated at 16oC and 22oC in a phyB-specific manner using phyB mutant and wild type seedlings.

Controlled Nutrient Delivery to Pancreatic Islets Using Polydopamine-Coated Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles

Project description:In the present study, we designed a nanoscale platform for the sustained and controlled delivery of nutrients to pancreatic islets-upon transplantation. Our platform consists of a mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSNP), loaded with glutamine (G), an essential amino acid required for islet survival and function, and capped with polydopamine (PD). To control the release of glutamine, various concentrations (0.5 - 2 mg/mL) of PD and incubation times (0.5 – 2 h) with MSNPs were investigated in terms of pharmacological properties and biological functions. After extensive testing, PD-G-MSNPs made using PD coating of 0.5 mg/mL incubated for 0.5 h resulted in the optimal platform to maintain the islet viability and functionality in vitro. Following syngeneic renal sub-capsule islet transplantation in STZ-diabetic mice, PD-G-MSNPs improved the engraftment of pancreatic islets as well as their function, resulting in re-establishment of glycemic control. Collectively, our data shows that PD-G-MSNPs can support transplanted islets by providing them with a controlled and sustained supply of nutrients.

Thickness dependence of structural and superconducting properties of Co-doped BaFe<sub>2</sub>As<sub>2</sub> coated conductors.

Project description:High-quality Co-doped BaFe2As2 thin films with thickness up to 2 μm were realized on flexible metal tapes with LaMnO3 as buffer layers fabricated by an ion beam-assisted deposition technique. Structural analysis indicates that increasing thickness does not compromise the film crystallinity, except for a small amount of impurities. Two types of thickness dependence of critical current density (J c) were found: one is almost thickness independent in the range of 0.6-1.5 μm and the other is highly thickness dependent. In addition, the maximum value for crucial current I c at 9 T and 4.2 K is about 55 A/12 mm-W for the 1.5-μm-thick film. Anisotropic Ginzburg-Landau scaling demonstrates that dominant pinning centers develop from correlated to uncorrelated with increasing film thickness. The further theoretical analysis shows that with film thickness increasing the pinning mechanism evolves progressively from a δl pinning to the δT c pinning mechanism.

Colloidal superionic conductors.

Project description:Nanoparticles with highly asymmetric sizes and charges that self-assemble into crystals via electrostatics may exhibit behaviors reminiscent of those of metals or superionic materials. Here, we use coarse-grained molecular simulations with underdamped Langevin dynamics to explore how a binary charged colloidal crystal reacts to an external electric field. As the field strength increases, we find transitions from insulator (ionic state), to superionic (conductive state), to laning, to complete melting (liquid state). In the superionic state, the resistivity decreases with increasing temperature, which is contrary to metals, yet the increment decreases as the electric field becomes stronger. Additionally, we verify that the dissipation of the system and the fluctuation of charge currents obey recently developed thermodynamic uncertainty relation. Our results describe charge transport mechanisms in colloidal superionic conductors.
