The X- ray diffraction data show a structural transition from the rhombohedral R3c phase to the orthorhombic Pnma phase between x=0.1 and 0.125, which should induce a ferroelectric- paraelectric transformation. The phase transition is also proven by the Raman spectroscopy. A moderate signal on magnetization appears to illustrate the enhancement of magnetization at the transformation boundary, which is suggested to be the destruction of the spin cycloid structure at low concentration. The appearance of antiferromagnetic ordering is proposed to account for the afterward reduction of the magnetization at high concentration.展开更多

Activated carbon fibers (ACFs) were used as templates for deposition and later removed by calcinations. The obtained catalysts were characterized by scanning electron micros- copy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis The pores within TiO2 fibers included micro-range and meso-range, e.g., 7 nm, and the specific surface areas for TiO2 fibers were 141 m^2/g and 148 m^2/g for samples deposited at 100 ℃ and 200℃ (using ACFI700 as template), respectively. The deposition temperature significantly influenced TiO2 morphology. The special advantages of this technique for preparing porous nano-material include no consumption of organic solvent in the process and easy control of deposition conditions and speeds.展开更多

文摘Further improvement of storage density is a key challenge for the application of phase-change memory(PCM)in storage-class memory.However,for PCM,storage density improvements include feature size scaling down and multilevel cell(MLC)operation,potentially causing thermal crosstalk issues and phase separation issues,respectively.To address these challenges,we propose a high-aspect-ratio(25:1)lateral nanowire(NW)PCM device with conventional chalcogenide Ge_(2)Sb_(2)Te_(5)(GST-225)to realize stable MLC operations,i.e.,low intra-and inter-cell variability and low resistance drift(coefficient=0.009).The improved MLC performance is attributed to the high aspect ratio,which enables precise control of the amorphous region because of sidewall confinement,as confirmed by transmission electron microscopy analysis.In summary,the NW devices provide guidance for the design of future high-aspect-ratio threedimensional PCM devices with MLC capability.
