It is predicted that the bulk 2D heterostructures could considerably enhance the thermoelectric properties as compared with the bulk MoSe2. The enhancement originates from the reduction in the band gap and the presence of interlayer van der Waals interactions. We therefore propose the 2D MoS2/MoSe2 heterostructures as a possible candidate material for thermoelectric applications.展开更多

Also, important qualitative aspects render it one of the most expensive wood species in the world. This work presents a study about the physical properties and heat transfer of T. grandis wood from plantations in C.ceres, Mato Grosso, Brazil. Six trees planted at three different intervals were used--two from each planting density--selected at random and with good phytosanitary characteristics, as well as having representative diameters and heights. The following properties were determined： basic and apparent densities, volume contraction, heat transfer and fiber saturation point. The basic and apparent mean general density of the samples was 0.48 g/cm3 and 0.55 g/cm3, respectively. The mean volume contraction of the teak wood was 8.57%. With decreased levels of wood humidity, loss of volume and planting effects were not significant at 5% probability. Mean heat transfer was 7.3 h/cm and the wood fiber saturation point was 17.25%, below the range found in literature, and there was no influence of the planting density on this property. According to the results, it was concluded that planting density significantly influenced the base density of the wood; the same effect does not occur for the other physical properties, and with respect to heat transfer, the wood was considered difficult to dry.展开更多

The results show that the initial density and thickness of the targets will affect the formation of the acceleration sheath fields in the target normal direction. For the same target thickness, using lower density target materials can obtain a higher proton maximum energy. However, lower density targets tend to be deformed due to the shock waves launched by the laser pulses, making the proton spatial distribution more divergent.展开更多
