High stability of flexible perovskite transparent conductive oxide film via van der Waals heteroepitaxy

Transparent conducting oxides (TCOs), such as indium-tin oxide (ITO) and indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO), are essential components in the design of flexible optoelectronic devices. However, it is still a challenge to prepare low-cost flexible transparent conductive film for achieving the flexible functionality together with high optical transparency and electrical conductivity. Herein, fluorphlogopite (mica) is selected as the bendable and transparent substrate for the fabrication of low-cost perovskite CaVO 3 TCO epitaxial film. Benefitting from thin mica substrate with high Young’s modulus of 200 GPa, flexible CaVO 3 TCO epitaxial film exhibits high mechanical stability in terms of electrical conductivity and optical transparency after bending up to 10 5 cycles. The change of resistance can reflect the bending curvature and strain state. Finally, our results provide a new pathway to design superior mechanical flexibility and stability CaVO 3 TCO films for application in flexible, light-weight, and portable smart optoelectronic devices.

Effects of Salt on Phase Behavior and Rheological Properties of Alginate–Chitosan Polyelectrolyte Complexes

Oppositely charged polyelectrolytes often form polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) due to the association through electrostatic interactions. Obtaining PECs using natural, biocompatible polyelectrolytes is of interest in the food, pharmaceutical, and biomedical industries. In this work, PECs were prepared from two biopolymers, positively charged chitosan and negatively charged alginate. We investigate the changes in the structure and properties of PECs by adding sodium chloride (salt doping) to the system. The shear modulus of PECs can be tuned from ~10 to 10 4 Pa by changing the salt concentration. The addition of salt led to a decrease in the water content of the complex phase with increasing shear modulus. However, at a very high salt concentration, the shear modulus of the complex phase decreased but did not lead to the liquid coacervate formation, typical of synthetic polyelectrolytes. This difference in phase behavior has likely been attributed to the hydrophobicity of chitosan and long semiflexible alginate and chitosan chains that restrict the conformational changes. Large amplitude oscillatory shear experiments captured nonlinear responses of PECs. The compositions of the PECs, determined as a function of salt concentration, signify the preferential partitioning of salt into the complex phase. Small-angle X-ray scattering of the salt-doped PECs indicates that the Kuhn length and radius of the alginate–chitosan associated structure qualitatively agree with the captured phase behavior and rheological data. This study provides insights into the structure–property as a function of salt concentration of natural polymer-based PECs necessary for developing functional materials from natural polyelectrolytes.

Skin-like low-noise elastomeric organic photodiodes

Stretchable optoelectronics made of elastomeric semiconductors could enable the integration of intelligent systems with soft materials, such as those of the biological world. Organic semiconductors and photodiodes have been engineered to be elastomeric; however, for photodetector applications, it remains a challenge to identify an elastomeric bulk heterojunction (e-BHJ) photoactive layer that combines a low Young’s modulus and a high strain at break that yields organic photodiodes with low electronic noise values and high photodetector performance. Here, a blend of an elastomer, a donor-like polymer, and an acceptor-like molecule yields a skin-like e-BHJ with a Young’s modulus of a few megapascals, comparable to values of human tissues, and a high strain at break of 189%. Elastomeric organic photodiodes based on e-BHJ photoactive layers maintain low electronic noise current values in the tens of femtoamperes range and noise equivalent power values in the tens of picowatts range under at least 60% strain.

Effects of Encapsulant Properties on the Thermo-Mechanical Reliability of Double-Side Cooled Power Modules for Traction Inverters

Double-side cooled power modules are being developed for next-generation traction inverters due to their better heat extraction, lower profile, and lower parasitic inductances. However, due to their rigid structure, they cause reliability concerns arising from high thermo-mechanical stresses at the interconnection joints in the module. In this work, a materials-based approach using rigid encapsulants is presented for reducing thermo-mechanical fatigue. Finite-element thermo- mechanical simulations were performed to examine the effects of the elastic modulus and coefficient of thermal expansion of epoxy- based encapsulants on the bond deformation inside a double-side cooled power module. It was found that a rigid encapsulant with a high modulus of 6.0 GPa or above and a coefficient of thermal expansion around 20 ppm/oC would improve the thermo- mechanical reliability of double-side cooled power modules by decreasing the permanent bond deformation inside the modules by 50-60%.

Engineering a biopolymer for vascular embolization based on fundamental polymer principals

Herein we describe the engineering of a potential polymer substitute to metal coils for achieving vascular embolization. Our system is based on a methacrylate end-functionalized polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide-polyethylene oxide (PEO-PPO-PEO) triblock copolymer which displays thermal-reversible gelation properties and FCC ordering of the original copolymer while also being able to chemically crosslink. This system shows injectability, two-step gelation, chemical crosslinking with a five-fold increase in modulus and is highly resistant to washout under physiological flow conditions. Furthermore, we show that exposure to aqueous flow imparts resistance to swelling where less than 10 % swelling was observed under physiological flow as opposed to more than 60 % under static conditions after 30 days. Auxiliary experiments with PEO-PPO-PEO copolymers of various molecular weights indicate that this phenomenon may possibly be attributed to entanglements known to occur between adjacent micelles, where the reptation time, the time for polymer disentanglement, is long compared to the flow rate.

Real-space atomic dynamics in metallic liquids investigated by inelastic neutron scattering

Understanding the dynamics of liquids at the atomic level remains a major challenge. Even though viscosity is one of the most fundamental properties of liquids, its atomistic origin is not fully elucidated. Through inelastic neutron scattering experiment on levitated metallic liquid droplets, the time-dependent pair correlation function, the Van Hove function, was determined for Z⁢r 50 ⁢C⁢u 50 and Z⁢r 80 ⁢P⁢t 20 liquids at various temperatures. The time for change in local atomic connectivity, τ LC , which is the timescale of atomic bond cutting and forming, is estimated based on the exponential decay of the nearest neighbor peak of the Van Hove function. At high temperatures above the crossover temperature T A , τ LC is equal to the Maxwell relaxation time, τ M =η/G ∞ , where η is the macroscopic shear viscosity and G ∞ is the high-frequency shear modulus. Below T A the ratio of τ M /τ LC increases with decreasing temperature, indicating increased atomic cooperativity as predicted by molecular dynamics simulation.

Investigation of Best-Practices and Computationally Inexpensive Radiative Exchange Models for Discrete Element Method Modeling of Aluminosilicate Particles in Concentrating Solar Power Environments

Chemically inert, aluminosilicate based particles have been investigated as both a thermal transport and sensible energy storage medium for concentrating solar power facilities. These particles will experience a wide range of operating temperatures (300-1000 K) and handling conditions (dense to dilute falling particle curtains, dense granular flows, or dense structures), requiring specially-designed and optimized infrastructures. The relative influence of collisional and frictional interactions between particles varies based on temperature-dependent particulate properties and greatly impacts the bulk, granular flow behavior. These underlying physics are captured using discrete element method modeling tools. However, this modeling method is computationally expensive as each particle position and interaction is tracked during the simulation. These modeling methods are further complicated by introducing temperature-dependent particle properties, high-temperature radiative exchange, and directional irradiation sources experienced by granular flows in concentrating solar power environments. In this study, coupled experimental and numerical slump testing of aluminosilicate particles was performed and computationally efficient radiative exchange models were evaluated to establish best-practices for discrete element method models for concentrating solar power environments. The three particle types investigated included Carbobead HSP 30 /60, Carbobead CP 30/60, and Granusil 4030. Existing modeling limitations and computationally-efficient multi-modal heat transfer models were evaluated using Aspherix®, a commercial discrete element method software. High-temperature (< 1073 K) slump testing of aluminosilicate particles was performed to investigate the deviation between experimentally-observed and numerically-predicted angles of repose introduced by computation-time reduction practices including the relaxation of the particle elastic modulus and coarse-graining. Coarse-graining is used to use a single modeled particle that is representative of a collection of smaller particles, decreasing the computational cost at the expense of geometric accuracy. Additionally, relaxation of the elastic modulus is used to reduce computational time at the expense of an increased, modeled particle overlap. Prior studies have determined that aluminosilicate particles retain a high elastic modulus at high temperatures (< 1073 K), requiring small simulation timesteps to ensure resolved contact forces resemble appropriate solid mechanics. A parametric study was performed to evaluate the influence of computation time improvements on the deviation between experimental and modeled angle of repose across high temperatures < 1073 K. Additionally, numerical case studies were performed on candidate particle systems at varying porosities and temperatures. These studies were performed to investigate the influence of computationally-efficient radiative-exchange modeling methods coupled to Aspherix® on modeled accuracy and computation time. The recently-developed distance-based approximation was evaluated in estimating radiative exchange between particles and participating surfaces located in close proximity. The distance based approximation was developed to use tabulated estimates of the radiative distribution factor between individual particles and surfaces in close proximity (< 40 particle radii). These methods were expanded to the aluminosilicate particles of interest, including the influence of particle size distributions. To capture radiative exchange between particles and surfaces not in close proximity (> 40 particle radii) and to capture the absorption of directional irradiation from concentrating solar resources, a volumetrically-averaged radiative distribution factor was calculated between the modeled granular flow and surfaces using Monte Carlo ray-tracing for participating media. Volume-averaged absorption and scattering coefficients were predicted using a volumetric discretization of the modeled domain with monodisperse approximations based on geometric optics and experimentally-determined scattering phase functions for aluminosilicate particles.

Renewable Lactam Monomer for Tunable and Processable Polyamides

Replacement of petroleum-derived monomers with renewable alternatives is an integral part of the sustainable polymer framework. Research in this area involves the search for bio-based or recycled starting materials for traditional polymers, as well as investigations into new materials accessible from renewable feedstocks. Focusing on the latter, we studied the properties of polyamides synthesized from γ-methyl-ε-caprolactam through anionic ring-opening polymerization by an activated monomer mechanism. Here, the amorphous homopolymer presents high stiffness (Young’s modulus, ≈3 GPa), strength (stress at break, ≈80 MPa) and toughness under dry (low humidity) conditions, high ductility (strain at break, ≈1100%) in humid environments, optical clarity, and excellent processability due to its non-crystallizable nature and solubility in common organic solvents. Copolymerization with ε-caprolactam allows tailoring the mechanical properties and crystallinity in the resultant copolymers and provides new opportunities for advanced manufacturing and other applications.

Filament Formation and Melt Spinning of Coal-Based Mesophase Pitch for Carbon Fiber Production

High-performance carbon fibers excel as high specific strength and modulus materials, and are utilized in composites applications ranging across aerospace, automotive, energy, infrastructure, and sports equipment sectors. Compared to PAN-based carbon fiber, mesophase pitch-based carbon fiber has lower tensile strength but provides a higher modulus, higher thermal conductivity, and a lower cost potential. However, challenges in stable, continuous melt spinning processing are a serious limiting factor. Unlike typical melt spinning of long, linear chain polymers, mesophase pitch is a comprised of relatively shorter polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons which form a liquid crystal. In its ‘green’ or ‘as-spun’ state, the fibers are very fragile. Moreover, its temperature of processing is quite high, often approaching 400ºC. Complex flow dynamics combined with short length and time scale heat transfer render its melt spinning a formidable processing challenge. Improved understanding of the root causes for nascent filament breakage and spinning instabilities are needed. This work aims to determine fundamental phenomena that govern mesophase pitch filament formation by comparison of required draw force and uninterrupted spinning minutes with applied draw down ratio. The effect of perturbations on spinning stability are analyzed using capillary rheometry, microscopy of elongating filaments, and filtration.

High-pressure high-temperature melting and recrystallization of nanolamellar high-entropy alloys

Additively manufactured (AM) High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) are notable for their exceptional high-yield strength and large tensile ductility. The nanolamellar Eutectic HEA (EHEA) AlCoCrFeNi 2.1 was fabricated by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) in the as-printed form (EHEA1) and subsequently annealed at 1000oC (EHEA2) and 600oC (EHEA3) to achieve a broad range of mechanical properties. EHEA2 and EHEA3 samples were studied using Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), energy dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDXRD) at high-pressures and high temperatures, nanoindentation hardness and modulus measurements. According to EDXRD EHEA2 and EHEA3 are composed of B2 and L1 2 phases. High-pressure high-temperature EDXRD studies show melting for EHEA2 at 1698 ± 25 K at a pressure of 6.5 GPa and melting for EHEA3 at 1598 ± 25 K at a pressure of 5.8 GPa. Post-melt and recrystallized samples were recovered at ambient conditions, and XRD analysis showed retention of B2 and L1 2 phases, although a new σ phase appeared for both EHEA2 and EHEA3 samples due to high-pressure and high-temperature melting and recrystallization experiment. SEM analysis also demonstrated the preservation of the nanolamellar morphology. Nanoindentation studies revealed that recrystallized EHEAs retain their original mechanical property hierarchy, with EHEA3 being 47% harder than EHEA2, largely related to higher content of B2-phase and retention of nanolamellar morphology. We also present Pressure-Volume-Temperature (P-V-T) data for 3-D printed and annealed eutectic high entropy alloys and extract mechanical and thermal properties data.

Synthesis and Ultrahigh Pressure Compression of High-Entropy Boride (Hf0.2Mo0.2Nb0.2Ta0.2Zr0.2)B2 to 220 GPa

The high-entropy boride (Hf0.2Mo0.2Nb0.2Ta0.2Zr0.2)B2 material was synthesized under high-pressures and high-temperatures in a large-volume Paris-Edinburgh (PE) press from a ball-milled powder mix of HfO2, MoO3, Nb2O5, Ta2O5, ZrO2, carbon black, and boron carbide. The transformation process was monitored in situ by energy-dispersive x-ray diffraction with conversion starting at 1100 °C and completed by 2000 °C with the formation of a single hexagonal AlB2-type phase. The synthesized sample was recovered, powdered, and mixed with platinum pressure marker and studied under high pressure by angle-dispersive x-ray diffraction in a diamond anvil cell. The hexagonal AlB2-type phase of (Hf0.2Mo0.2Nb0.2Ta0.2Zr0.2)B2 was found to be stable up to the highest pressure of 220 GPa reached in this study (volume compression V/V0 = 0.70). The third order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state fit to the high-pressure data up to 220 GPa results in an ambient pressure unit cell volume V0=28.16±0.04 Å3, bulk modulusKo = 407 ± 6 GPa, pressure derivative of bulk-modulus K0′ = 2.73 ± 0.045 GPa. Our study indicates that this high-entropy boride (Hf0.2Mo0.2Nb0.2Ta0.2Zr0.2)B2 material is stable to ultrahigh pressures and temperatures and exhibit high bulk modulus similar to other incompressible transition metal borides like ReB2 and Os2B3.

Compression Response of Silicone-Based Composites with Integrated Multifunctional Fillers

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is known for its exceptional mechanical properties, chemical stability, and flexibility. Recent advancements have focused on developing functional PDMS composites by integrating various functional fillers, including polymers, ceramics, and metals, for advanced applications such as electronics, medical devices, and aerospace. Consequently, there is a growing need to investigate PDMS composites to achieve higher filler loadings offering enhanced mechanical performance. This study addresses this need by utilizing the high molecular weight (MW) PDMS resin we have developed, offering its high elongation capacity of up to >6500%. We incorporated boron (B), hollow glass microballoons (HGMs), and tungsten-coated hollow glass microballoons (WHGMs) into the developed high MW PDMS. The resulting composites demonstrated excellent elastic properties and significant compression resilience (35–80%) and elastic modulus (1.28–10.15 MPa) at high filler loadings (~60 vol.%). Specifically, B/PDMS composites achieved up to 67.6 vol.% of B, HGM/PDMS composites held up to 68.6 vol.% of HGM, and WHGM/PDMS composites incorporated up to 54.0 vol.% of WHGM. These findings highlight the potential of high MW PDMS for developing high-performance PDMS composites suitable for advanced applications such as aerospace, automotive, and medical devices.

On the 3D printability of one-part moisture-curable polyurethanes via direct ink writing (DIW)

Direct ink writing (DIW) is an ambient temperature additive manufacturing (AM) method that accommodates many possible ink materials. Here, in this work, we demonstrate using a moisture-curable commercially available polyurethane (PU) sealant as an alternative ink for DIW. We discussed the fundamentals of PU chemistry and determined the best 3D printing parameters. Studies on rheological, thermogravimetric, spectroscopic characterization, and initial finite element analyses (FEA) showed properties expected from a performance sealant with high elongation and low modulus of a 3D-printed object. This affirms the flexibility of the DIW technique as an accessible AM method amenable for future materials development from commercial model formulations.

The effect of inhomogeneities in coal-based mesophase pitch on filament formation and melt spinning for carbon fiber

Mesophase pitch-based carbon fibers excel as high specific strength and modulus materials, but challenges in stable, continuous melt spinning processing are a serious limiting factor. Inhomogeneities in the pitch may result in flow instabilities that can lead to filament breakage. This work aims to characterize and offer mitigation strategies for the negative effects that inhomogeneities such as isotropic binder, gels, and other inclusions impart on melt spinning of mesophase pitch. The effect of inhomogeneities on spinning stability are analyzed using capillary rheometry, borescope imaging of elongating filaments, and filtration. With no filter, immediate blockage of the spinning capillary occurred. Improvement in melt spinning duration was observed when a porous metal filter (20 μm nominal pore size) was utilized, but no significant further improvement in spinning duration was found upon decreasing the filter nominal pores size to 10, 5 and 2 μm. Moreover, flow instabilities that disrupted melt spinning stability were observed by capillary rheometry when the size of included isotropic pitch domains were larger than approximately 10 μm. Resultant carbon fiber properties and SEM imaging of fracture surfaces are reported.

NanoMechanics: Elasticity and Friction in Nano‐Objects

A large scientific and technological effort is underway to investigate the properties of two‐dimensional (2D) materials to become building blocks in integrated nano‐electronic and photonic circuits, composites, coatings, energy harvesting nano‐ systems, nano‐sensors, and nano‐electro‐mechanical systems (NEMS).While several experiments and calculations have revealed exciting novel phenomena in these nanostructures, many scientific and technological questions remain open. In particular, understanding and controlling the structure and mechanical properties of 2D materials at the interface with a solid surface is of key importance to enable the aforementioned nanotechnologies, as well as to fulfill the potential of strain engineering to tailor their properties. The vision of this DoE research program was to investigate novel mechanical properties and phenomena in 1D and 2D materials with the overarching goal of defining a new basic understanding of mechanical behavior in nano and quantum systems. The group of the PI has developed in the last years several studies on the mechanical properties of Carbon nanotubes and oxide nanobelts, more recently the PI has focused her attention on the properties of two‐dimensional materials, such as graphene and MoS 2 , which are a few‐atomic‐layer thick films and hold a great potential for technological and energy applications. The most studied 2D material is graphene, existing as a single layer of graphite or a few‐layer thick epitaxial graphene film. Graphene possesses a large in‐plane Young’s modulus as well as high intrinsic carrier mobility, and high in‐plane thermal conductivity. Besides graphene, also 2D films of graphene oxide (GO), hexagonal Boron Nitride (h‐BN), and transition metal dichalcogenides such as MoS 2 exhibit unique and excellent properties and hold great promise for nanotechnology applications. This research program was aimed at developing a new basic understanding of the mechanical properties of 1D and 2D materials at the interface with solid substrates, with a focus on the role of defects, materials structure, and substrate interaction. Ultimately, we aimed at developing the basic knowledge and experimental tools for manipulating 1D and 2D materials’ structure, stacking, substrate interaction, defects, and number of layers to realize an entirely new class of ultra‐hard, ultra‐thin, and ultra‐light active materials with ad‐ hoc mechanical properties for a variety of applications.

High-Entropy Borides under Extreme Environment of Pressures and Temperatures

The high-entropy transition metal borides containing a random distribution of five or more constituent metallic elements offer novel opportunities in designing materials that show crystalline phase stability, high strength, and thermal oxidation resistance under extreme conditions. We present a comprehensive theoretical and experimental investigation of prototypical high-entropy boride (HEB) materials such as (Hf, Mo, Nb, Ta, Ti)B2 and (Hf, Mo, Nb, Ta, Zr)B2 under extreme environments of pressures and temperatures. The theoretical tools include modeling elastic properties by special quasi-random structures that predict a bulk modulus of 288 GPa and a shear modulus of 215 GPa at ambient conditions. HEB samples were synthesized under high pressures and high temperatures and studied to 9.5 GPa and 2273 K in a large-volume pressure cell. The thermal equation of state measurement yielded a bulk modulus of 276 GPa, in excellent agreement with theory. The measured compressive yield strength by radial X-ray diffraction technique in a diamond anvil cell was 28 GPa at a pressure of 65 GPa, which is a significant fraction of the shear modulus at high pressures. The high compressive strength and phase stability of this material under high pressures and high temperatures make it an ideal candidate for application as a structural material in nuclear and aerospace fields.

Direct Ink Writing of 3D Zn Structures as High‐Capacity Anodes for Rechargeable Alkaline Batteries

The relationship between structure and performance in alkaline Zn batteries is undeniable, where anode utilization, dendrite formation, shape change, and passivation issues are all addressable through anode morphology. While tailoring 3D hosts can improve the electrode performance, these practices are inherently limited by scaffolds that increase the mass or volume. Herein, a direct write strategy for producing template‐free metallic 3D Zn electrode architectures is discussed. Concentrated inks are customized to build designs with low electrical resistivity (5 × 10 −4 Ω cm), submillimeter sizes (200 μm filaments), and high mechanical stability (Young's modulus of 0.1–0.5 GPa at relative densities of 0.28–0.46). A printed Zn lattice anode versus NiOOH cathode with an alkaline polymer gel electrolyte is then demonstrated. This Zn||NiOOH cell operates for over 650 cycles at high rates of 25 mA cm −2 with an average areal capacity of 11.89 mAh cm −2 , a cumulative capacity of 7.8 Ah cm −2 , and a volumetric capacity of 23.78 mAh cm −3 . A thicker Zn anode achieves an ultrahigh areal capacity of 85.45 mAh cm −2 and a volumetric capacity of 81.45 mAh cm −3 without significant microstructural changes after 50 cycles.

Ultrahigh strength, modulus, and conductivity of graphitic fibers by macromolecular coalescence

Theoretical considerations suggest that the strength of carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers be exceptional; however, their mechanical performance values are much lower than the theoretical values. To achieve macroscopic fibers with ultrahigh performance, we developed a method to form multidimensional nanostructures by coalescence of individual nanotubes. The highly aligned wet-spun fibers of single- or double-walled nanotube bundles were graphitized to induce nanotube collapse and multi-inner walled structures. These advanced nanostructures formed a network of interconnected, close-packed graphitic domains. Their near-perfect alignment and high longitudinal crystallinity that increased the shear strength between CNTs while retaining notable flexibility. The resulting fibers have an exceptional combination of high tensile strength (6.57 GPa), modulus (629 GPa), thermal conductivity (482 W/m·K), and electrical conductivity (2.2 MS/m), thereby overcoming the limits associated with conventional synthetic fibers.
