Pd nanoparticles were selectively deposited and confined onto the DNA templates on a PDMS sheet to form Pd nanowires and then the nanowires were transferred to other various substrates with a low occurrence of par asitic nanoparticles. The structure, morphology and the conductance of Pd nanowires were characterized with transmission electron microscopy, field emission scanning electron mi croscopy, and electrical transport measurement, respectively. Moreover, the growth process of the Pd nanowires was investigated by varying the incubation time and reaction temper ature. The present strategy provides a new method to fabricate extremely dense, highly conductive, and well aligned Pd nanowires on various substrates, which make it promising for building nanosensors and nanoelectronic devices.展开更多

While pristine graphene is desirable for applications that require a high electrical conductivity, many other applications require modified or functionalized forms of graphene, such as graphene oxide, reduced graphene, or other functionalized forms. Structurally modifying graphene through chemical functionalization reveals the numerous possibilities for tuning its structure; several chemical and physical functionalization methods have been explored to improve the stabilization and modification of graphene. In this review, we report recent progress towards the chemical modification of graphene, including both covalent and noncovalent methods, for use in various applications.展开更多

Graphene was dispersed in a solution of poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS) and polymerization was directly carried out by addition of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) monomer to the dispersion. The content of the graphene was varied and optimized to give the highest electrical conductivity. The composite solution was ready to use without any reduction process because reduced graphene oxide was used. The fabricated film had a conductivity of 637 S.cm-1, corresponding to an enhancement of 41%, after the introduction of 3 wt.% graphene without any further complicated reduction processes of graphene being required. The highly conductive composite films were employed in an organic thermoelectric device, and the device showed a power factor of 45.7 μW·m^-1K^-2 which is 93% higher than a device based on pristine PEDOT:PSS. In addition, the highly conductive composite films were used in Pt-free DSSCs, showing an energy conversion efficiency of 5.4%, which is 21% higher than that of a DSSC based on PEDOT:PSS.展开更多

There is a middle crust with solid, low velocity and high conductivity in eastern China, which is impossible to form"convection magmatic layer". The subduction and compression of oceanic plate induced to the lateral pressure for the eastern China lithosphere in the condition of increasing pressure and decreasing temperature, it is also impossible to form an extensively melting magma layer. In South China, the granitic zone migrates from west to east, their evolution cannot be explained by plate subduction. The original magmatic reservoirs are controlled by main faults and spheres, which occurred the tectonic detachment and formed in the process of decreasing pressure and increasing temperature. The magma only originates in very small part of lithosphere. The tectono-magmatism and tectonic detachment of eastern China lithosphere during the Jurassic and the Cretaceous are concentrate mainly near the intersections between the regional faults and middle crust or the Moho discontinuity, and then magma intrudes or erupts along faults. The tectono-magmatism of Cenozoic originates near the intersections between the regional high-angle normal faults and the bottom of lithosphere. Obviously, the different penetration depth of faults induces a different kind of magmatism.展开更多

In contrast to the extensive studies on proton- conductive MOFs and related membranes attractive for fuel cells, rare reports focus on MOFs in preparation of anion exchange membranes. In this study, chloromethylated MIL-101 (Cr) was prepared and incor- porated into chloromethylated poly (ether ether ketone) (PEEK) as a multifunctional filler to prepare imidazolium PEEK/imidazolium MIL-101(Cr) (ImPEEK/ImMIL-101(Cr)) anion exchange membrane after synchronous quaternization. The successful synthesis and chloromethylation of MIL-101(Cr) were veri- fied by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy while the enhanced performance of composite membranes in hydroxide conductivity, mechanical strength and dimensional stability were evaluated by alternating-current impedance, electronic stretching machine and measurement of swelling ratio. Specifically, incorporating 5.0wt% ImMIL-101(Cr) afforded a 71.4% increase in hydroxide conductivity at 20℃, 100% RH. Besides, the composite membranes exhibited enhanced dimensional stability and mechanical strength due to the rigid framework of ImMIL- 101(Cr). At room temperature and the ImM1L-101(Cr) content of 10wt%, the swelling ratio of the ImPEEK/lmMIL-101(Cr) was 70.04% lower while the tensile strength was 47.5% higher than that of the pure membrane.展开更多

However, the stability, uniformity, and power consumption of memristors are still challenging in neuromorphic computing. Here an Au/SnSe/graphene/SiO_(2)/Si memristor was fabricated, incorporating two-dimensional graphene with high thermal conductivity. The device not only exhibits excellent electrical characteristics(e.g., high stability,good uniformity and a high ROFF/RON ratio), but also can implement biological synaptic functions such as paired-pulse facilitation, short-term plasticity and long-term plasticity. Its set and reset power values can be as low as 16.7 and 2.3 nW,respectively. Meanwhile, the resistance switching mechanism for the device, which might be associated with the formation and rupture of a filamentary conducting path consisting of Sn vacancies, was confirmed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy observations. The proposed device is an excellent candidate for use in high-density storage and lowpower neuromorphic computing applications.展开更多
