Near-Infrared Light-Driven Controllable Motions of Gold-Hollow-Microcone Array
摘要： Micro/nanomotors can effectively convert other forms of energy into mechanical energy, which have been widely used in microscopic fields. However, it is still challenging to integrate the micro/nanomotors to perform complex tasks for broad applications. Herein, a new mode for driving the collective motion behaviors of integrated micro/nanomotors in a liquid by plasmonic heating is reported. The integrated micro/nanomotors, constituted by gold hollow microcone array (AuHMA), are fabricated via colloidal lithography. Owing to the excellent plasmonic-heating property of AuHMA, the integrated micro/nanomotors can generate vapor bubbles in the liquid as exposure to near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, therefore inducing versatile motions via on/off NIR irradiation. The floating-diving motions are reversible for at least 60 cycles without fatigue. In addition, precise manipulation of the coordinated motion behaviors, including bending, convex, and jellyfish-like floating motions, can be realized by adjusting the irradiated positions of incident NIR light together with the sizes and shapes of AuHMA films. Moreover, the AuHMA film can act as a robust motor to drive a foam craft over 57 folds of its own weight as exposure to NIR irradiation. Our investigation into the NIR-driven AuHMA film provides a facile approach for obtaining integrated micro/nanomotors with controllable collective motions, which holds promise in remotely controlled smart devices and soft robotics in liquids.

Sulfur and Nitrogen Co-Doped Graphene Quantum Dots as a Fluorescent Quenching Probe for Highly Sensitive Detection toward Mercury Ions
摘要： Sulfur and nitrogen co-doped graphene quantum dots (SN-GQDs) were synthesized through an efficient infrared (IR)-assisted pyrolysis of glucose, urea, and ammonia sulfate at 260°C. These served as a highly selective probe for the sensing of Hg2+ ions in an aqueous solution. The IR technique can also prepare N-doped graphene quantum dots (N-GQDs), which have been compared with SN-GQDs for their fluorescence (FL) quenching sensitivities by Hg2+ ions. The FL intensities of both GQDs show decreasing functions of concentration of Hg2+ ions within the entire concentration ranges of 10 ppb?10 ppm. The sensitivity of SN-GQD is 4.23 times higher than that of N-GQD, based on the calculation of the Stern-Volmer equation. One inter-band gap structure of SN-GQDs for the detection of mercury ions is proposed. The S doping can coordinate with phenolic groups on the edge of SN-GQDs (i.e., the formation of (CxO)2Hg2+) and induce the cutting off or alleviation of photon injection paths, thereby leading to significant FL quenching. This work proves that SN-GQD offers sufficient sensitivity for probing the quality of drinking water to ensure that it contains less than 10 ppb of Hg2+ ions, as per the World Health Organization standard.

Laser-driven structural transformations in dextran- <i>graft</i> -PNIPAM copolymer/Au nanoparticles hybrid nanosystem: the role of plasmon heating and attractive optical forces
摘要： Laser induced structural transformations in a dextran grafted-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) copolymer/Au nanoparticles (D-g-PNIPAM/AuNPs) hybrid nanosystem in water have been observed. The laser induced local plasmonic heating of Au NPs leads to Lower Critical Solution Temperature (LCST) phase transition in D-g-PNIPAM/AuNPs macromolecules accompanied by their shrinking and aggregation. The hysteresis non-reversible character of the structural transformation in D-g-PNIPAM/AuNPs system has been observed at the decrease of laser intensity, i.e. the aggregates remains in solution after the turn-off the laser illumination. This is an essential difference comparing to the case of usual heating–cooling cycles when there is no formation of aggregates and structural transformations are reversible. Such a fundamental difference has been rationalized as the result of action of attractive optical forces arising due to the excitation of surface plasmons in Au NPs. The attractive plasmonic forces facilitate the formation of the aggregates and counteract their destruction. The laser induced structural transformations have been found to be very sensitive to matching conditions of the resonance of the laser light with surface plasmon resonance proving the plasmonic nature of observed phenomena.

Electro-Thermal Formation of Uniform Lying Helix Alignment in a Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Cell
摘要： We demonstrated previously that the temperature of a sandwich-type liquid crystal cell with unignorable electrode resistivity could be electrically increased as a result of dielectric heating. In this study, we take advantage of such an electro-thermal effect and report on a unique electric-field approach to the formation of uniform lying helix (ULH) texture in a cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) cell. The technique entails a hybrid voltage pulse at frequencies f1 and, subsequently, f2, which are higher and lower than the onset frequency for the induction of dielectric heating, respectively. When the cell is electrically sustained in the isotropic phase by the voltage pulse of V = 35 Vrms at f1 = 55 kHz or in the homeotropic state with the enhanced ionic effect at V = 30 Vrms and f1 = 55 kHz, our results indicate that switching of the voltage frequency from f1 to f2 enables the succeeding formation of well-aligned ULH during either the isotropic-to-CLC phase transition at f2 = 1 kHz or by the electrohydrodynamic effect at f2 = 30 Hz. For practical use, the aligning technique proposed for the first time in this study is more applicable than existing alternatives in that the obtained ULH is adoptable to CLCs with positive dielectric anisotropy in a simple cell geometry where complicated surface pretreatment is not required. Moreover, it is electrically switchable to other CLC textures such as Grandjean planar and focal conic states without the need of a temperature controller for the phase transition, the use of ion-rich LC materials, or mechanical shearing for textural transition.

Microstructure and properties of laser interference crystallized amorphous FeSiB ribbon
摘要： The influence of Q-switched pulsed Nd:YAG laser interference heating, using 120 mJ of pulse energy and a variable number of consecutive pulses, on the microstructure and magnetic properties of amorphous Fe80Si11B9 alloy was examined. Microstructural analysis, using light, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, was complemented by results of M?ssbauer spectroscopy and measurement of magnetic properties (vibrating sample magnetometer). Periodically distributed crystallized micro-areas, *10 lm in diameter, in an amorphous matrix were produced by the treatments. Magnetization measurements showed that the as-cast ribbon and laser light irradiated samples are magnetically soft materials. The results lead to the conclusion that the dots corresponding to the laser modified regions exhibit a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy.

Particle transport mode during flash sintering of sodium bismuth titanate ceramic
摘要： In this work, the NBT ceramics are successfully flash sintered at a direct current 30 mA/mm2 for 30 s under different initial electric field. Subsequently, the actual temperature of samples is estimated by blackbody radiation theory under different conditions. The calculation results show that the sample temperature is close to the densification temperature of NBT ceramics used in conventional method. The rapid densification mechanism is discussed by wetting of local contact particles due to the asymmetrical Joule heating. In particular, we analyzed the particle transport mode during flash sintering in terms of particle diffusion. It is believed that the transform in the particles transport mode from solid diffusion to flow mass transfer accelerated the particles diffusion rate, which ensure the particle rearrangement and achieve the local shrinkage of particles in a short period of time.

Suppression of crystallization in ZBLAN glass by rapid heating and cooling processing
摘要： ZBLAN glass is a heavy metal fluoride glass that tends to undergo heavy devitrification, resulting in a crystalline material. It has many applications, including its use as an optical waveguide for fibre optic technology. However, when the glass is processed with traditional casting techniques, crystallites form readily that act as scattering centres, which results in large attenuation losses. In this study, it has been experimentally demonstrated that processing ZBLAN rapidly with a heating rate of 25,000 K/min and cooling rate of 4,000 K/min yields test samples that are fully amorphous and retain a disordered molecular arrangement characteristic of its molten state. This novel method was developed using a specifically designed equipment named a Rapid Electro-thermal Processing Device, or “REPD”. The REPD applies ohmic heating and thermal conduction to a heat sink to rapidly process the ZBLAN material. The absence of crystallites in the rapidly processed ZBLAN test samples were verified using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis. Applying a theoretical algorithm, the critical cooling rate for yielding fully amorphous ZBLAN glass was determined to be 1081 K/min for a sample volume of 9.4 x 10-8 m3.

Energy/exergy based-evaluation of heating/cooling potential of PV/T and earth-air heat exchanger integration into a solar greenhouse
摘要： Through the present paper, a solar greenhouse integrated with an Earth-Air Heat Exchanger (EAHE) and Photovoltaic/Thermal collectors (PV/Ts) was theoretically studied in terms of energy and exergy and validated against an experimental study presented in literature i.e. a solar greenhouse with floor area, buried pipe length and PV area of 24m2, 39m and 9.68m2, respectively. The comparisons showed a fairly good agreement between the theoretical and experimental results with a relatively high coefficient of correlation around 95%. Afterwards, the given solar greenhouse was optimized in terms of energy and exergy efficiencies while the results indicated that only length of EAHE pipes showed an optimum value equal to 38m on average. Moreover, the results showed that PV/Ts did not have a significant heating potential for raising the greenhouse air and plant temperatures and only the electricity generation potential of PVs was favorable. However, the EAHE integration seemed promising in raising and lowering the temperatures of greenhouse air by 9°C and 8°C in summer and winter, respectively. Moreover, the Temperature Load Leveling (TLL) due to integration of only EAHE was achieved 46% and 58% in summer and winter, respectively.

New trends of gyrotron development at KIT: An overview on recent investigations
摘要： Since many years KIT is strongly involved in the development of high power gyrotrons for use in ECRH. KIT is pursuing two development lines: (i) the conventional, hollow cavity gyrotron and (ii) the coaxial cavity gyrotron. KIT is pushing conventional cavity gyrotrons from 1 MW to 1.5 MW in a common project with IPP Greifswald. Coaxial cavity technology having the advantage of higher power capability, in particular at higher frequency, is used for the 2 MW 170 GHz short-pulse prototype. This gyrotron is currently being upgraded to allow pulse extension up to approximately 100 ms and up to 1 s in a second step. For a future DEMOnstration fusion power plant two challenging trends with respect to gyrotron features are recognized: (a) the operating frequency will be above 200 GHz and (b) the requested total efficiency of the gyrotron should be higher than 60%. KIT is addressing these requirements by investigating both gyrotron technologies for their performance at a frequency well above 200 GHz. We started careful analysis of multi-staged-depressed collectors.

Multi-objective optimization of a solar assisted heat pump-driven by hybrid PV
摘要： The role of renewable energy sources becomes more and more important in modern times. Solar energy utilization in the building sector is one attractive solution for covering heating and electricity needs. In this direction, the investigation of a solar heating-electricity production system ideal for building applications is investigated in this study. This cogeneration system includes hybrid PV (or PV/T) collectors and a heat pump which is driven totally (heat and electricity) by the solar collector. The system is designed properly in order to produce net electricity production except for the need of the heat pump. This system is optimized using an innovative multi-objective procedure with heating and electricity production as the objective functions. The optimization is performed in steady-state conditions for seven different working fluids in the heat pumps. The optimum design points for all the working fluids are compared and finally, R32 is selected as the most suitable choice with R1234yf to be the second one. In the optimum design conditions, 10 m2 of hybrid PV collector are able to feed the heat pump and finally 4.33 kWth of heating and 0.53 kWel of net electricity to be produced. The next step in this study is the investigation of the system with R32 for all the winter period in the climate conditions of Athens (Greece). Six different typical days (one for every month from November to April) are examined and the final results are given. For January, which is a representative winter month, it is found that the daily heating and electricity production is 34.9 kWh and 5.13 kWh respectively. Moreover, the mean daily energy efficiency is found 60.53% while the exergy 9.26% for this month.
