However, challenges persist in enhancing the stability of its capacitance and its response/relaxation time. To tackle these issues, we have proposed a highly sensitive capacitive sensor based on polyvinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene (P(VDF-TrFE)) with a microcapsule structure coated with nano-ZnO. The sensor integrates a semiconductor filler within a porous microstructure, enabling it to be positioned within the matrix’s pores for the purpose of monitoring human health. This P(VDF-TrFE)-ZnO dielectric layer with a short rod-like ZnO particle-in-micropore (SRP-MP) structure effectively enhances the structural stability and capacitance change rate of the dielectric layer. It boasts an ultrahigh sensitivity of 3.1 kPa<sup>-1</sup>, a broad pressure range of up to 50 kPa, an ultra-low relaxation response time of 23 ms, and the ability to detect an ultra-low minimum pressure of 50<!-- --> <!-- -->Pa. The sensor’s structural stability has been significantly improved, and it has demonstrated excellent fatigue resistance in 10,000 cycles tests. Following this, we delved into the sensor’s sensing mechanism. To elucidate the reasons behind the sensor’s enhanced performance, we modeled its interior and conducted finite element analysis simulations (COMSOL) to investigate its internal sensing mechanism and piezoelectric response. Finally, we conducted various tests on the sensor’s human application to clarify its performance in actual situations, demonstrating significant application potential.","PeriodicalId":344,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Alloys and Compounds","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142867212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Raman spectra described the network structure evolution induced by changes in the compositions. The bonding probabilities of Ge-Ge and As-As bonds are highly similar, as inferred from the observed broadening and shifting of their Raman characteristic peaks. Following this deduction, the chemical bond distributions of the GeAsSe glasses were calculated. Further, the cohesion energy and the mean bond energy were also calculated. The refractive index, glass transition temperature (T<sub>g</sub>), coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), thermo-optical coefficient (dn/dT) and Vickers hardness were all well modelled with mean coordination number (MCN). Refractive index transition was found around MCN = 2.6 for the compositions with variable Ge content and fixed As content. The slope of the increase in refractive index seems to have a transition at MCN = 2.4. These two transitions are correlated to the structural transitions of floppy to isostatically rigid and isostatically rigid to stress-rigid. Further, a series of molar refractivity and bond refractivity were computed by multiple linear regression. It will facilitate a quick evaluation of other GeAsSe glasses. Otherwise, higher T<sub>g</sub> corresponds to compositions closer to standard stoichiometric ratio when MCN remains constant. Negative dn/dT was observed in compositions with larger CTE and smaller MCN (MCN < 2.4).

The conductivity can be effectively regulated through electronic structure adjustment thanks to the chemical and physical flexibility and adjustability of MOFs. In this regard, through a simple and rapid electrochemical method, 2D conductive iron-quinoid MOFs were synthesized. The conductivity of the obtained MOF film reached 1.7(7) S/m. With the increase of reaction time, the 2D network was oxidized partially, and the conductivity decreased down to 0.5(7) S/m. The DFT calculation results showed a narrow bandgap of the 2D crystal cell. Further quantum chemical calculations of the bimetal unit of the iron-quinoid MOF revealed the expansion of the bandgap as the 2D MOF network is gradually oxidized. This work proves the feasibility of fine-tuning macroscopic conductivity from an electronic structure. The combined organic and inorganic chemical structure of MOF materials provides a larger operating space for this fine regulation than that of pure inorganic materials.

The Mg alloy exhibited a weak basal texture in which the Schmid factor for twinning under tensile deformation was low (or even negative) in most grains. Over 150 twin nucleation events at grain boundaries were recorded and classified into different groups. The most important ones were single twin nucleation and twin co-nucleation at grain boundaries and triple junctions while the number of twin transfer events was very small. It was found that twin nucleation/co-nucleation began at large grains suitably oriented for basal slip and gradually occurred in smaller grains with lower basal SF as the applied deformation increased while the twinning SF was not able to predict extension twinning. Thus, basal slip leads to the creation of stress concentrations at the grain boundaries that trigger twin nucleation. The microstructural features that dictate each type of twin nucleation event were analyzed and provided novel information about the influence of the microstructure of twin variant selection in Mg. In particular, it was found that twin variant selection was dictated in many cases by the orientation of twin shear strain with respect to the grain boundaries and was independent of the twinning Schmid factor.","PeriodicalId":238,"journal":{"name":"Acta Materialia","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142867229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
