However, the methods in defect controlcurrently face challenges with overly large operational areas and a lack of precision in targeting specific defects. Therefore,we propose a new method for the precise and universal defect healing of TMD materials, integrating real-time imaging withscanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). This method employs electron beam irradiation to stimulate the diffusionmigration of surface-adsorbed adatoms on TMD materials grown by low-temperature molecular beam epitaxy (MBE),and heal defects within the diffusion range. This approach covers defect repairs ranging from zero-dimensional vacancydefects to two-dimensional grain orientation alignment, demonstrating its universality in terms of the types of samples anddefects. These findings offer insights into the use of atomic-level focused electron beams at appropriate voltages in STEMfor defect healing, providing valuable experience for achieving atomic-level precise fabrication of TMD materials.展开更多

文摘There is an urgent need for novel processes that can integrate different functional nanostructures onto specific substrates,so as to meet the fast-growing need for broad applications in nanoelectronics,nanophotonics,and fexible optoelectronics.Existing direct-lithography methods are difficult to use on fexible,nonplanar,and biocompatible surfaces.Therefore,this fabrication is usually accomplished by nanotransfer printing.However,large-scale integration of multiscale nanostructures with unconventional substrates remains challenging because fabrication yields and quality are often limited by the resolution,uniformity,adhesivity,and integrity of the nanostructures formed by direct transfer.Here,we proposed a resist-based transfer strategy enabled by near-zero adhesion,which was achieved by molecular modification to attain a critical surface energy interval.This approach enabled the intact transfer of wafer-scale,ultrathin-resist nanofilms onto arbitrary substrates with mitigated cracking and wrinkling,thereby facilitating the in situ fabrication of nanostructures for functional devices.Applying this approach,fabrication of three-dimensional-stacked multilayer structures with enhanced functionalities,nanoplasmonic structures with~10 nm resolution,and MoS2-based devices with excellent performance was demonstrated on specific substrates.These results collectively demonstrated the high stability,reliability,and throughput of our strategy for optical and electronic device applications.

文摘Electron beam–directed energy deposition(EB–DED)has emerged as a promising wire-based metal additive manufacturing technique.However,the effects of EBs on pendant droplets at wire tips have not yet been determined.The aim of this study is to enhance the understanding of this action by analyzing the mechanism of droplet oscillation.The pendant droplet oscillation phenomenon hinders the stable transfer of droplets to the molten pool and limits the feasibility of manufacturing complex lattice structures by EB–DED.Hence,another aim of this study is to create an oscillation suppression method.An escalating asymmetric amplitude is the main characteristic of droplet oscillation.The primary oscillationinducing force is the recoil force generated from the EB-acted local surface of the droplet.The physical mechanism of this force is the rapid increase and uneven distribution of the local surface temperature caused by the partial action of the EB.The prerequisites for droplet oscillation include vacuum conditions,high power densities,and bypass wire feeding processes.The proposed EB–dynamic surrounding melting(DSM)method can be applied to conveniently and effectively suppress oscillations,enable the accurate transfer of droplets to the molten pool,and achieve stable processes for preparing the strut elements of lattice structures.Lowering the temperature and improving the uniformity of its distribution are the mechanisms of oscillation suppression in EB–DSM.In this study,the physical basis for interpreting the mechanism by which EBs act on droplets and the technical basis for using EB–DED to prepare complex lattice structure parts are provided.
