Photocatalytic CO2 reduction on porous TiO2 synergistically promoted by atomic layer deposited MgO overcoating and photodeposited silver nanoparticles
摘要： In this work, a porous TiO2 photocatalyst derived from metal-organic framework MIL-125 was synthesized and tested for photocatalytic CO2 reduction with water. To improve the photocatalytic performance, innovative materials modifications were employed by decorating TiO2 with atomic layer deposited (ALD) MgO overcoating and photodeposited silver (Ag) nanoparticles at different orders: MgO deposition followed by Ag (i.e. Ag/MgO/TiO2), or Ag deposition followed by MgO (i.e. MgO/Ag/TiO2). The addition of Ag promoted transfer of photoinduced electrons, while the coating of an ultrathin MgO layer inhibited surface charge recombination and enhanced CO2 adsorption. The combination of MgO and Ag resulted in synergistic promotion on CO2 photoreduction greater than the sum of individual promotional effects. The Ag/MgO/TiO2 catalyst with 7 ALD-layers of MgO and 5% Ag was 14 times more active than the pristine TiO2 in terms of CO and CH4 production. In addition, the sequence of MgO/Ag decoration influenced the catalytic activity. The Ag/MgO/TiO2 catalysts were in general more active than the MgO/Ag/TiO2 counterparts, likely due to the different electron mobility and Ag nanoparticle distribution on the surface. This work for the first time reports the novel materials structure of ALD coated MgO and photodeposited Ag nanoparticles on TiO2, and it reveals the importance of optimizing materials morphology and structure to promote the catalytic activity.

Manufacture of Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles Coated with Silica Shells
摘要： MgO@SiO 2 core–shell nanoparticles were manufactured, and a synthetic protocol was developed to prepare MgO nanoparticles where the SiO2 shell thickness was less than 10 nm. The influence of synthesis parameters on the formation of MgO@SiO2 nanoparticles was studied. The fact of a SiO2 shell being formed on the MgO surface was established and the sizes of the thus-prepared MgO@SiO2 nanoparticles were determined by TEM and Fourier-transform IR spectroscopy.

Highly Stable Red Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diodes with Long T <sub/>95</sub> Operation Lifetime
摘要： Quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) with excellent performances such as external quantum efficiency (EQE) and lifetime have almost met the requirement of low brightness display. However, the short operation lifetime under high brightness limits the application of QLEDs in outdoor displays and lightings. Herein, we report a highly efficient, stable red QLED by using of lithium and magnesium co-doped as well as magnesium oxide shell-coated zinc oxide nanoparticle layer as electron transport layer (ETL). The optimized QLED has a high peak EQE of 20.6%, a low efficiency roll-off at high current, and a remarkably long lifetime T95 > 11000 h at 1000 cd m-2, which indicates the realization of the most stable red QLED up to now. The improvement in the long-term stability of the QLED is attributed to the use of co-doped and shell-coated zinc oxide ETL with reduced electron injection to improve the charge balance in device.

CuSCN as the Back Contact for Efficient ZMO/CdTe Solar Cells
摘要： The replacement of traditional CdS with zinc magnesium oxide (ZMO) has been demonstrated as being helpful to boost power conversion e?ciency of cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar cells to over 18%, due to the reduced interface recombination and parasitic light absorption by the bu?er layer. However, due to the atmosphere sensitivity of ZMO ?lm, the post treatments of ZMO/CdTe stacks, including CdCl2 treatment, back contact deposition, etc., which are critical for high-performance CdTe solar cells became crucial challenges. To realize the full potential of the ZMO bu?er layer, plenty of investigations need to be accomplished. Here, copper thiocyanate (CuSCN) is demonstrated to be a suitable back-contact material with multi-advantages for ZMO/CdTe solar cells. Particularly, ammonium hydroxide as the solvent for CuSCN deposition shows no detrimental impact on the ZMO layer during the post heat treatment. The post annealing temperature as well as the thickness of CuSCN ?lms are investigated. Finally, a champion power conversion e?ciency of 16.7% is achieved with an open-circuit voltage of 0.857 V, a short-circuit current density of 26.2 mA/cm2, and a ?ll factor of 74.0%.

Characterization of MgO/TiN bilayer deposited on cube-textured copper using pulsed-laser deposition technique
摘要： Here we demonstrate heteroepitaxial growth of MgO/TiN thin films on flexible metal foil of copper substrates using pulsed laser deposition. X-ray and electron diffraction measurements revealed that the epitaxial MgO/TiN bilayer was oriented along (002) direction. The large mismatch between TiN islands and Cu substrate was effectively reduced by the 5/6 and 6/7 variations of domains. Despite the local irregularity of misfit dislocations at TiN/Cu, the domain-matching epitaxy paradigm is a remarkably accurate theory. MgO/TiN bilayer is chemically homogeneous and Mg, Ti, or Cu atoms do not segregate into the low-angle grain boundaries regardless of MgO/TiN films thickness. Thus, it appears that thickness may be reduced up to the value in which TiN fully covers the rough surface of Cu tape. Unfortunately, issues related to the presence of in-plane TiN contraction, probably generated by the difference in thermal expansion coefficient, and the origin of misfit dislocations irregularity at TiN/Cu interface remain unresolved. Our findings can make a substantial contribution to further research on Cu-based coated conductors and help in better understanding the ways that MgO/TiN bilayer are grown on Cu tape.

Unipolar Nonvolatile Resistive Switching in Pt/MgO/Ta/Ru Structures Deposited by Magnetron Sputtering
摘要： The recent realization of memristors, nanodevices exhibiting non-volatile resistive switching, has sparked tremendous interest for applications in fields such as nonvolatile memories. Here we report unipolar resistive switching in Pt/MgO/Ta/Ru structures, with an oxide barrier thickness of only 15 nm. No electroforming process was required to achieve resistive switching and an ohmic conduction mechanism is associated with the ON state. We observed an inverse dependence of the ON state resistance on the SET current compliance and average values of 1.61 V and 1.38 V for the SET and RESET voltages, respectively. We show the stability of the switching for over 40 cycles and a clear separation of the ON (101 Ω) and OFF (102 Ω) states during at least 104 s.
