Thin films with structural gradients were obtained by controlling four parameters consisting of solution concentration, applied voltage, air pressure , and deposition time. The surface morphologies of the deposited films were observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The image analysis revealed the control factors on the preparation of PLGA thin films. The beaded structure is ensily formed with a decrease in polymer concentration while the fibrous structure is easily formed with an increuse in polymer concentration. With the increase in applied voltage, the surface morphologies changed continnously from a small amount of fibrous shape to a large fibrous one: a small amount of.fibrous shape at 10 kV, more fibers with non-uniform diameter at 20 kV, and most fibers with uniform diameter at 30 kV. Low air pressure(0.1 MPa ) corresponded to round particles while high air pressure (0.3 MPa ) corresponded to fiat particles. The change in thickness from 5.34 to 10.1μm was a result of deposition time increasing from 5 to 10 s. From our above work, films of the bead or fiber structures can be obtained by changing electrical parameters to impropvc tbe biocompntibility of the film.展开更多

The optimized conditions for the fabrication of the thin films were investigated for different types of fullerene derivatives: [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester, [6,6]-phenyl-C71-butyric acid methyl ester, and indene-C60-monoadduct. The spray diameter during the ESD process was observed as a function of the supply rate achieved by changing the applied voltage. In all cases, the spray diameter increased with increasing applied voltage, reaching the maximum diameter (Dmax) in the voltage range 4 to 6 kV. It was clear that Dmax was influenced by the dipole moments of the fullerene derivatives (as calculated by density functional theory methods). Scanning electron microscopy observation of the?fabricated thin films showed that imbricated structures were formed through the stacking of the fullerene-derivative sheets. Atomic force microscopy images revealed that the density of the imbricated structure was dependent on the spray diameter during the ESD process, and the root-mean-square roughness of the film surface decreased with increasing applied voltage. These findings suggest that the ESD method will be effective for the preparation of fullerene-derivative thin films for the production of organic devices.展开更多

The coating was characterized by classical X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). The results indicate that the coating shows nanosized particulate structure and dendritic structure including columnar structure and equiaxed structure. The primary phases of the coating contain Fe3W3C, Co3W3C, Fe2C and Si2W. The coating has a low friction coefficient of 0.13, its average wear-resistance is 3.3 times that of the cast steel roll substrate and the main mechanism is abrasive wear. The maximum microhardness value of the coating is about 1573.9 Hv0.3. The study reveals that the electro-spark deposition process has the characteristic of better coating quality and the coating has higher wear resistance and hardness.展开更多
