The effects of CeO2 doping on piezoelectric and dielectric properties of the system were investigated at morphotropic phase boundary （MPB）. The results reveal that the relative dielectric constant ε33^T｜ε0, the Curie temperature To, the piezoelectric constant d33, the mechanical quality factor Qm, and the electromechanical coupling coefficient Kp are changed with the increase of CeO2 content. On the other hand, the effects of CeO2 doping on the dielectric properties of PSN-PZN-PMS-PZT piezoelectric ceramics at high electric field are consistent with the change at weak electric field. The values of dielectric constant and dielectric loss are enhanced with the increasing of electric field.展开更多

However, it is very difficult to obtain moderate defect degree in 2D materials, and studied on modulation means and mechanism becomes urgent and essential. In this work, we realized memristive feature with a bipolar switching and a configurable on/off ratio in a two-terminal MoS_(2) device(on/off ratio ~100), for the first time, from absent to present using laser-modulation to few-layer defect-free MoS_(2)(about 10 layers), and its retention time in both high resistance state and low resistance state can reach 2×10^(4) s. The mechanism of the laser-induced memristive feature has been cleared by dynamic Monte Carlo simulations and first-principles calculations. Furthermore, we verified the universality of the laser-modulation by investigating other 2D materials of TMDs. Our work will open a route to modulate and optimize the performance of 2D semiconductor memristive devices.展开更多

Influence of CeO2 doping amount on the piezoelectric properties, dielectric properties, phase composition and microstructure of prepared BCTZ lead-free piezoelectric ceramics doped with Li2CO3 were investigated by X-ray diffraction （XRD） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and other analytical methods. The results showed that the sintered temperature of BCTZ lead-free piezoelectric ceramics doped with CeO2 decreased greatly when Li2CO3 doping amount was 0.6 wt.%;a pure perovskite structure of BCTZ lead-free piezoelectric ceramics co-doped with Li2CO3 and CeO2 and sintered at 1050 ℃ could also be obtained. The piezoelectric constant （d33）, the relative permit-tivity （εr） and the planar electromechanical coupling factor （kp） of BCTZ ceramics doped with Li2CO3 increased firstly and then de-creased, the dielectric loss （tanδ） decreased firstly and then increased and decreased at last when CeO2 doping amount increased. The influence of CeO2 doping on the properties of BCTZ lead-free piezoelectric ceramics doped with Li2CO3 were caused by“soft effect”and “hard effect”piezoelectric additive and causing lattice distortion. When CeO2 doping amount （x） was 0.2 wt.%, the BCTZ ceramics doped with Li2CO3 （0.6 wt.%） and sintered at 1050 ℃ possessed the best piezoelectric property and dielectric property with d33 of 436 pC/N, kp of 48.3%,εr of 3650, tanδof 1.5%.展开更多

As for Pr, the doping enhanced the catalytic activity of CuO-CeO2 for PROX. For example, the CO conversion over the above catalyst for PROX was higher than 99% at 120 °C. Especially, the doping of Pr widened the temperature window by 20 °C over CuO-CeO2 with 99% CO conversion. For Nd, Y, and La, the doping depressed the catalytic activity of CuO-CeO2 for PROX. However, the doping of transition metals markedly improved the selectivity of CuO-CeO2 for PROX.展开更多

文摘Charging P2-Na_(2/3)Ni_(1/3)Mn_(2/3)O_(2)to 4.5 V for higher capacity is enticing.However,it leads to severe capacity fading,ascribing to the lattice oxygen evolution and the P2-O2 phase transformation.Here,the Mg Fe_(2)O_(4) coating and Mg,Fe co-doping were constructed simultaneously by Mg,Fe surface treatment to suppress lattice oxygen evolution and P2-O2 phase transformation of P2-Na_(2/3)Ni_(1/3)Mn_(2/3)O_(2)at deep charging.Through ex-situ X-ray diffraction(XRD)tests,we found that the Mg,Fe bulk co-doping could reduce the repulsion between transition metals and Na+/vacancies ordering,thus inhibiting the P2-O2 phase transition and significantly reducing the irreversible volume change of the material.Meanwhile,the internal electric field formed by the dielectric polarization of Mg Fe_(2)O_(4) effectively inhibits the outward migration of oxidized O^(a-)(a<2),thereby suppressing the lattice oxygen evolution at deep charging,confirmed by in situ Raman and ex situ XPS techniques.P2-Na NM@MF-3 shows enhanced high-voltage cycling performance with capacity retentions of 84.8% and 81.3%at 0.1 and 1 C after cycles.This work sheds light on regulating the surface chemistry for Na-layered oxide materials to enhance the high-voltage performance of Na-ion batteries.
