In this work, UVC micro-LEDs with high efficiency, high reliability, and high bandwidth are realized by adding AlN thin layers into the electron blocking layer (EBL), which leads to a record-breaking peak EQE of 3.55% and a peak wall plug efficiency (WPE) of 3.34% at 253 nm. Subsequently, we investigate the degradation mechanism through accelerated aging tests and conduct charge management experiments specifically for the TianQin project. The 6545-h L70 lifetime and the temperature cycle impact experiment further substantiate the high reliability of these UVC micro-LEDs. Additionally, the impressive -3 dB bandwidth of up to 485 MHz and the data rate reaching 1.69 Gbps highlight their potential in UVC communication applications.

However, the widespread adoption of TENGs has been hindered by challenges such as low surface charge density and reduced durability of triboelectric materials. Addressing these issues, this study presents the synthesis of a sustainable MgFe2O4-Ag2WO4 nanocomposite material, incorporated into a biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) matrix to enhance TENG performance. MgFe2O4-Ag2WO4 nanocomposites were synthesized using a simple combustion method followed by coprecipitation and characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and contact angle measurements, demonstrating excellent structural stability and compatibility with PLA. The resulting PLA nanocomposite films exhibited a maximum dielectric property of 7.3, significantly improving the surface charge density and energy conversion efficiency of the fabricated TENG. Electrical characterization revealed a maximum output voltage of 20.05 V and a current of 1.99 µA, with the device capable of powering an electronic calculator and illuminating 20 LEDs. Furthermore, the TENG device demonstrated effective energy harvesting during human walking and jumping and functioned as a touch sensor in a touch-sensing circuit, blinking an LED as a warning signal. This work provides a sustainable and innovative pathway for developing fully biodegradable, high-performance TENGs for energy harvesting and sensing applications, offering a green alternative for powering small electronics and sensors.","PeriodicalId":394,"journal":{"name":"Nano Energy","volume":"97 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":17.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142858035","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}

Based on the TVNG in freestanding-mode, a tribovoltaic bearing (TVB) was fabricated consisting of two different dopped silicon rings, bearing rollers and retaining frame. The Isc of TVB has a segmented linear relationship with the rotational speed (R2=0.9933 at 400-800 rpm; R2=0.9867 at 800-1000 rpm). Furthermore, the TVB and signal processing unit are encapsulated together as mechatronic smart bearing, which can realize accurate monitoring of rotational speed for overspeed alarming.

In this study, 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) is used for the first time as an alternative anchoring agent, yielding evenly dispersed Ag nanoparticles with an average particle size of 2 nm. Using this linker a current density of 1 A cm-2 was achieved with faradaic efficiency for CO of 85% at 3.3 V.

The faradaic efficiencies for CO remained consistently around 80% at 3.1 V, with a cell voltage degradation rate of 1.5 mV h-1.

The saturated charge density of contact electrification (CE) at the liquid-solid interface is a key parameter to evaluate its performance. This study confirms that ultraviolet (UV) irradiation can enhance the saturated charge density of L-S CE, and the enhancement effect depends on the UV wavelength and intensity. The UV wavelengths that can further increase the saturated charge density of droplet -PTFE and droplet -FEP TENG are within 310-405 nm and 275-405 nm, respectively. In these wavelength ranges, high light intensity of UV irradiation favors L-S CE. The saturated charge density of FEP is up to -524 μC/m2 under optimal irradiation conditions. A series of experiments are further conducted to explore the possible influences of UV irradiation on chemical change of solid surface, ionization of water, and so on. It is proposed that UV irradiation can excite electrons in water molecules to high-energy states and make them transfer to and be trapped by solid surface. Meanwhile, the electrons on the solid surface itself, as well as those that have been transferred to the solid surface, also can be excited under specific UV wavelength irradiation, resulting in charge dissipation at the L-S interface. Finally, the photo-excitation electron transfer theory is extended to quantitatively explain the influence mechanism of UV irradiation on L-S CE. This study not only contributes to further understanding of L-S CE, but also provide an effective technique to improve the performance of L-S TENG.","PeriodicalId":394,"journal":{"name":"Nano Energy","volume":"259 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":17.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142849022","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}

As CO2 itself is a good C1 resource, developing scientific and reasonable CO2 conversion and utilization routes become a common concern of the world. At present, the preparation of cyclic carbonate from CO2 and epoxide is one of the most ideal conversion routes. Cyclic carbonate is not only the raw material of lithium battery production, but also widely used in medicine, chemical industry and other industries. Because of the stability of CO2, the catalytic conversion of CO2 requires the participation of catalysts. Ionic liquids (ILs) as catalysts have the advantages of being designable and functional, and scientists have developed various types of ILs to catalyze the synthesis of cyclic carbonates from CO2 to epoxides with very satisfactory results. This article provides a comprehensive review of the latest research developments in the field of ILs catalyzed conversion of CO2 and epoxides to cyclic carbonates. It meticulously interprets the structure and chemical properties of CO2 and ILs, thoroughly analyzes the reaction mechanisms, and offers profound insights into the challenges encountered in the current reaction processes. Additionally, the article systematically summarizes the synthesis strategies of ILs. Furthermore, it conducts a comprehensive retrospective on the research progress of CO2 and epoxides catalyzed by ILs to synthesize cyclic carbonates and provides a perspective on the future development direction of ILs.","PeriodicalId":394,"journal":{"name":"Nano Energy","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":17.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142849018","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}
