Recent Developments in Femtosecond Laser-Enabled TriBeam Systems

Streams of multimodal three-dimensional (3D) and four-dimensional (4D) data are revolutionizing our ability to design and predict the behavior of a broad array of advanced materials systems. Over the last 10 years, a new 3D imaging platform consisting of a femtosecond (fs) pulsed laser coupled with a focused ion beam scanning electron microscope (FIB SEM) has been developed by UC Santa Barbara in collaboration with Thermo Fisher Scientific (formerly FEI). The femtosecond-laser-enabled FIB SEM, called the TriBeam, has become one of the only 3D serial sectioning methods available that can gather millimeter-scaled multimodal datasets at sub-μm voxel resolutions; these length scales are critical for many materials problems. Multimodal chemical, crystallographic, and morphological information can be gathered rapidly on a layer-by-layer basis and reconstructed in 3D. Large (gigabyte to terabyte scale) 3D datasets have been generated for a broad array of materials systems, including metallic alloys, ceramics, biomaterials, polymer- and ceramic-matrix composites, and semiconductors. The research tasks conducted have resulted in a completely new design, operating with a dual-wavelength femtosecond-pulsed laser on a plasma focused ion beam (PFIB) platform.

Highly efficient organic solar cells with superior deformability enabled by diluting the small molecule acceptor content

Developing efficient organic solar cells (OSCs) with strong mechanical deformability is important to be addressed to ensure their operational reliability in wearable electronics. However, it is challenging to achieve mechanically robust polymer/small molecule OSCs with an efficiency over 17% due to the abundant brittle donor/acceptor (D/A) interface. Decreasing the small molecule content can reduce the brittle D/A interface area to enhance deformability, but it may also cause discontinuous electron-conducting regions and thus deteriorate photovoltaic performance. Here, we incorporate a polymer donor (D18) into a binary PTQ10cm-BTP-PhC6 system at a constant PTQ10:m-BTP-PhC6 ratio of 1 : 1.2 to minimize the D/A interfacial area and modulate phase separation, and subsequently fabricate mechanically reliable OSCs with high efficiency. The large incorporation of D18 molecules increases the crystallinity of m-BTP-PhC6 molecules because of the poor interaction between D18 and the two host materials, affording sufficient pathways for efficient charge percolation at a large D/A ratio. More importantly, highly aggregated m-BTP-PhC6 molecules help to minimize the D/A interfacial area, enabling ternary films with better deformability than their binary counterparts. As a result, ternary OSCs with a large D/A ratio of 1.5 : 1.2 exhibit a high efficiency of 17.3% with a crack-onset strain (COS) of 8.8%, which significantly outperforms their binary counterparts with an efficiency of 13.8% and a COS of 4.4%. Finally, diluting the content of small molecules and controlling intermolecular interaction through the introduction of the second polymer donor represents a promising strategy to fabricate efficient OSCs with superior deformability.

Electrochemical performance of ionic polymer metal composite under tensile loading

Abstract Cracks in polymer composites can lead to premature failure, which can be disastrous for polymer-based energy storage devices. Detecting these cracks is essential to guarantee the reliability and safety of such devices. However, detecting cracks in composite polymers such as ionic polymer metal composites (IPMCs) is a challenging task, which makes it difficult to ensure their performance and safety. The overall goal of this study is to investigate the effect of cracks or damage caused by tensile loading on the mechanical properties and electrochemical characteristics of IPMC based capacitors. During tensile testing, the deformation of the IPMC strips causes changes in the ion distribution and concentration in the polymer matrix, influencing the performance of the material. The measurements were conducted utilizing electrochemical impedance spectroscopy at a room temperature ( 21 ∘ C ) and frequency range of 10 KHz to 1 Hz. The method utilized in this study proved to be easy and quick with consistent results. The IPMC capacitor was found to increase its capacitance after major cracking in the Pt electrodes from high tensile mechanical loads. Furthermore, at lower frequency range (<100 Hz), the real ( ε ′ ) and imaginary ( ε ′ ′ ) part of permittivity increase with the addition of loads. This displays that the dielectric property of the material is affected due to the increasing of the loads. It is concluded that, at frequencies above 100 Hz, the permittivity is weakly load dependent.

Comparing Experimentally-Measured Sand’s Times with Concentrated Solution Theory Predictions in a Polymer Electrolyte

We compare the electrochemically measured Sand’s time, the time required for the cell potential to diverge when the applied current density exceeds the limiting current, with theoretical predictions for a 0.47 M poly(ethylene oxide) (5 kg mol −1 )/LiTFSI electrolyte. The theoretical predictions are made using concentrated solution theory which accounts for both concentration polarization and polymer motion, using independently measured parameters that depend on concentration, c : conductivity ( κ ), salt diffusion coefficient ( D ), cationic transference number with respect to the solvent velocity ( t + 0 ), thermodynamic factor 1 + dln f ± dln c , and partial molar volume of the salt ( V ̅ ); f ± is the mean molar activity coefficient of the salt. We find quantitative agreement between experimental data and theoretical predictions. We derive a generalized analytical expression for Sand’s time for electrolytes based on dilute solution theory. This expression correctly predicts the divergence of the Sand’s time at the limiting current, in agreement with experimental data and concentrated solution theory predictions. When the applied current is large compared to the limiting current, the analytical expression approaches the standard expression for Sand’s time used in the literature.

PILBCP-IL Composite Ionomers for High Current Density Performance

Wide-spread commercialization of fuel cell electric vehicles using proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) power sources requires that several existing limitations be addressed. These include: (1) a reduction in platinum (Pt) loading in the catalytic electrodes, (2) improvements in reactant and electronic mobility throughout the catalytic electrodes, (3) reduction in the reliance on materials derived from polluting “forever chemicals”, and (4) a significant improvement in the operational longevity of catalytic electrode components. In this project, a team of two universities, Drexel University and Texas A&M University, one national lab, National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and one company, General Motors, collaborated to develop a new cathode ionomer chemistry that would address these limitations and result in an improvement in performance over existing ionomer materials. The key technology developed through this collaborative project was a composite cathode ionomer encompassing an ionic liquid interlayer between Pt catalysts and a sulfonated polymerized ionic liquid block co-polymer (S-PILBCP) that possess the orthogonal properties of protonic conductivity and ionic liquid enhanced kinetics and durability (see schematic in Figure 1). The composite S-PILBCP ionomer eliminates many of the existing issues with perfluorosulfonic acid-based ionomers including active site blocking by sulfonate specific adsorption, restricted O 2 transport through ionomer films, limited humidity tolerance and active area loss for carbon pore confined catalyst particles, and use of polluting “forever chemicals”. Following successful integration of the developed composite ionic liquid into a PEMFC cathode catalyst layer, we demonstrate enhanced performance over Nafion containing cathodes with Pt/C and PtCo/C at both low and high current density. The performance with our composite S-PILBCP ionomer meets the Department of Energy (DOE) targets for light duty vehicle applications

Atomic layer deposition of nanofilms on porous polymer substrates: Strategies for success

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a versatile technique for engineering the surfaces of porous polymers, imbuing the flexible, high-surface-area substrates with inorganic and hybrid material properties. Previously reported enhancements include fouling resistance, electrical conductance, thermal stability, photocatalytic activity, hydrophilicity, and oleophilicity. However, there are many poorly understood phenomena that introduce challenges in applying ALD to porous polymers. In this paper, we address five common challenges and ways to overcome them: (1) entrapped precursor, (2) embrittlement, (3) film fracture, (4) deformation, and (5) pore collapse. These challenges are often interrelated and can exacerbate one another. To investigate these phenomena, we applied various ALD chemistries to porous polymers including polyethersulfone, polysulfone, polyvinylidene fluoride, and polycarbonate track-etched membranes. Reaction-diffusion modeling revealed why certain precursors and processing conditions result in embrittling subsurface material growth, entrapment of unreacted precursors, and nongrowth. We quantify the limits of ALD processing temperatures that are dictated by thermal expansion mismatch and can lead to fractured ALD films. The results herein allow us to make recommendations to avoid, mitigate, or overcome the difficulties encountered when performing ALD and plasma-enhanced ALD on porous polymers. We intend this article to serve as a “lessons learned” guide informed by previous experience to provide a better understanding of the difficulties and limitations of ALD on porous polymers and knowledge-based guidelines for successful depositions. This knowledge can accelerate future research and help experimentalists navigate and troubleshoot as they expose porous polymers to reactive precursor vapors.

Catalytic degradation of waste rubbers and plastics over zeolites to produce aromatic hydrocarbons

Catalytic conversion of waste rubbers and plastics into aromatic hydrocarbons is a promising approach to waste management and energy recovery. In the present study, acidic HY zeolites were supported by cobalt, iron, and zirconium, and the catalysts were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, ammonia temperature programmed desorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and pyridine-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Here, the catalytic degradation of waste polybutadiene rubbers (BR) was conducted to investigate the degradation mechanism and evaluate the catalytic activity of supported zeolites. Experimental results indicated that HY loaded by zirconium and iron led to a higher content of Lewis acid sites as opposed to cobalt supported one. Compared with the non-catalytic pyrolysis of BR, the zirconium supported HY (Zr/HY) led to a 10-fold increase in aromatic hydrocarbons production with a distinctively high selectivity of 97.9%. A series of waste polymers including waste tires (WT), polyethylene (PE), polycarbonate (PC), and BR, were subjected to catalytic pyrolysis to explore the effects of polymer type on aromatic hydrocarbons generation, and BR was the most effective substrate, with yield enhancement reaching 2.4 over Zr/HY. Catalytic co-pyrolysis of waste rubbers and plastics was conducted to probe the effect of polymer structure on aromatic hydrocarbons formation, where a significant synergistic effect was observed in the PE co-fed with PC run.

Modeling Impedance Caused by Ohmic Losses in High Surface Area Carbons in Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells

An analytical model for a blocking porous electrode is derived and used to predict how ohmic resistance inside micropores that host catalyst nanoparticles affects impedance. This paper revisits a widely used approach for estimating ionic conductivities of catalyst layers in fuel cells. An interfacial term associated with resistance in micropores is derived and added to the classical expression for the impedance of a blocking porous electrode at low frequency. The revised model predicts a physically realistic rise in the real component of the impedance at low frequency when reasonable pore dimensions and conductivities are used as inputs.

Structural effects of composition tuning in A-site disordered perovskite La0.5Li0.5−xMxTiO3 (M = Na, K) nanorods for fast interfacial transport for solid composite electrolyte design

Polymer-ceramic composite electrolytes (CPE) have emerged as promising replacements for currently used liquid organic electrolytes, which pose as safety hazards, in Li-ion batteries. Limits in conductivity enhancement in CPEs is often attributed to a high resistance for Li-ion transport along the interface due to the incompatibility of the polymer and ceramic phases. A clear understanding of the interfacial structure and how this impacts interfacial Li-ion transport is needed in order to efficiently design a CPE with optimal ionic conductivity. In this study, density functional theory (DFT) calculations, in conjunction with scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), are used to unveil the bulk and surface structure of La0.5Li0.5−xMxTiO3 (M = Na, K) (LMTO) nanorods, a newly-reported ceramic system with promising applications in CPEs, and the LMTO interactions with the poly(lithium sulfonyl (trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide methacrylate) (p(MTFSILi)) polymerized ionic liquid. Substitution of lithium for sodium and potassium onto the A-site perovskite lattice is shown to increase the stability of the preferred pseudocubic perovskite phase because of their increased cation size which allows them to reduce the TiO6 octahedral rotations in the bulk and at the surface. STEM and EELS results show that LMTO nanorods with differing compositions have Ti-enriched (110)-oriented surfaces. Increased sodium and potassium compositions in LMTO is also shown using the DFT calculations to weaken the binding of the lithium atom to the MTFSI unit when LiMTFSI is adsorbed to the LMTO surface. This weakening of lithium binding to the polymer at the LMTO interface indicates that the lithium mobility is increased, correlating to an increase in interfacial Li-ion transport. Overall, this work provides insights into how to tune the interfacial interactions between the polymer (p(MTFSI)) and ceramic (LMTO) for optimal CPE design.

SI-PET-RAFT Polymerization via Electrodeposited Macroinitiator Thin Films: Toward Biomedical and Sensing Applications

Surface-initiated photoinduced electron transfer-reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (SI-PET-RAFT) polymerization has been preferentially used for preparing thin polymeric film coatings due to its simple execution under ambient conditions (e.g., in air) and visible light requirement. In this study, we demonstrate the preparation of polymer brushes by SI-PET-RAFT polymerization on a thin macroinitiator film electrodeposited on electrically conductive indium tin oxide and gold surfaces. An electrochemically active carbazole-containing chain transfer agent as macroinitiator was shown to be not only effective in mediating SI-PET-RAFT polymerization for various monomers but also capable of forming block copolymers. Additionally, the fabricated polymer brush films were able to encapsulate colloidal gold nanoparticles, thereby demonstrating potential use for biomedical and sensing applications.

How the Hydrophobic Interface between a Perfluorosulfonic Acid Polymer and Water Vapor Controls Membrane Hydration

Stable hydration in perfluorinated polyelectrolyte membranes such as Nafion is essential to maintain good ion conductivity and manage permeation, especially in vapor-fed devices where water content depends on relative humidity in a gas stream. Extensive studies in the literature have shown that Nafion hydration in water vapor is controlled by its interfacial transport resistance. Nafion forms a fluorine-rich layer at the polymer-gas interface, and it has been proposed that this layer blocks water transport due to its hydrophobicity. To develop a molecular-level description of the physics underlying transport resistance in this system, we have performed a computational reaction-diffusion kinetics study of water evaporation from Nafion. Two distinct models are examined, one mimicking the blocking function proposed in the literature and the other assuming that there is no blocking, treating instead water evaporation as a dynamic balance between uptake from the gas and desorption from the polymer surface. Simulation results are compared to time-dependent infrared data over a range of 100-0% relative humidity from the literature. Only the dynamic model successfully reproduces experimental observations. This indicates that the physical nature of interfacial transport resistance is not slow diffusion across an interfacial layer; rather, it is due to the competition between dehydration and rehydration. The simulation data provide details on the accompanying water distributions throughout the membrane and on interfacial kinetics, showing that they are characterized by strong fluctuations.

Asphaltene-induced spontaneous emulsification: Effects of interfacial co-adsorption and viscoelasticity

Asphaltenes are a class of high molecular weight aromatic compounds found in crude oil. They adsorb onto toluene-water interfaces and induce a spontaneous emulsification phenomenon, whereby stable water-in-oil emulsions form without the need of an external energy input. This work aims to control and understand the factors affecting spontaneous droplet formation in the presence of asphaltene adsorption. This is particularly useful for crude oil refining, where the presence of a stable emulsion hampers the efficiency of downstream processing operations. We explore the effect of the addition of copolymers designed as crude oil flow improvers as a means to control the extent of emulsion formation. We find that the polymers competitively adsorb onto the toluene-water interface and diminish spontaneous emulsification. Additionally, we conduct fluorescence microscopy experiments and measurements of the interfacial energy to determine the mechanism of spontaneous emulsification in asphaltene systems. We conclude that an emulsion forms via the diffusion of molecular water into the oil phase and subsequent binding with asphaltene aggregates, leading to the nucleation of micrometer-sized water droplets. We find that the polymer forms complexes with the dissolved asphaltenes, possibly hampering the ability of diffused water to bind to the asphaltenes and reducing the extent of spontaneous emulsification. Finally, we investigate the role of interfacial shear and dilatational viscoelasticity to better understand which fundamental interfacial properties are important in the emulsification of asphaltene-laden systems. We find that the rate of formation of an interfacial microstructural network is inversely correlated with the extent and rate of spontaneous emulsification.

Electronic Conductivity of Nanoporous Indium Oxide Derived from Sequential Infiltration Synthesis

Sequential infiltration synthesis (SIS) is a vapor phase synthetic method that enables the selective nucleation and growth of metal oxides within polymer volumes. The expanding palette of SIS materials and process designs enables tunability of the resulting material properties. We derive porous indium oxide thin films from the SIS of indium oxide using trimethyl indium and H 2 O 2 in polymethyl methacrylate films and observe the strong effect of SIS and post-deposition processing, which affords 7 orders of magnitude of tunability in electrical resistivity. While as-deposited hybrid nanocomposites show no measurable conductivity, high-temperature treatment in O 2 removes the polymer matrix and creates a porous nanocrystalline In 2 O 3 film with resistivities ranging from 10 3 to 10 5 Ω*cm, with lower resistivity correlated to larger grain sizes. Subsequent annealing in H 2 decreases the resistivity of films to less than 10 –2 Ω*cm. A clear correlation between increasing In 2 O 3 volume fraction, grain size, and carrier mobility is observed, which arises from increased percolation pathways, path length, and contact area in nanocrystalline In 2 O 3 films. Furthermore, this wide tunability demonstrates the importance of understanding growth mechanisms and processing conditions for functional materials development.

Ionomer Optimization for Water Uptake and Swelling in Anion Exchange Membrane Electrolyzer: Hydrogen Evolution Electrode

Green hydrogen produced through anion exchange membrane water electrolysis is a promising, low-cost chemical storage solution for intermittent renewable energy sources. Low-temperature electrolysis using anion exchange membranes (AEM) combines the benefits of established water electrolysis technologies based on alkaline electrolysis and proton exchange membrane electrolysis. The anion conductive ionomers (ACI) used in the AEM electrolyzer (AEMEL) electrodes has been investigated. The ACI serves two primary purposes: (i) facilitate hydroxide conduction between the catalyst and bulk electrolyte and (ii) bind the catalyst to the porous transport layer and membrane. High ion exchange capacity (IEC) ACIs are desired, however, high IEC can cause excessive water uptake (WU) and detrimental ACI swelling. Proper water management is a key factor in obtaining maximum performance in AEM-based devices. In this study, a series of poly(norbornene)-based ACIs were synthesized and deployed in hydrogen evolving AEMEL cathode electrodes. A balance between ionic conductivity, WU and ionomer swelling was achieved in the ACI by varying the IEC and degree of polymer cross-linking. It was found that higher IEC ACIs with light crosslinking are preferred in the HER electrode. Furthermore, such a configuration fine-tuned the WU and ionomer swelling to achieve optimum cell performance and reduce cell operating voltages.

Electrochemical mechanisms of leakage‐current in photovoltaic modules

Abstract This paper analyzes the mechanisms and pathways for leakage current flow observed in Si photovoltaic modules subjected to high temperature and humidity and a large voltage bias with respect to ground. The current inside of the frame is in the form of electron motion, but in the glass and polymer, it is in at least a large part attributable to the movement of ions. When the mode of current flow changes from electronic to ionic conduction, electrochemical reactions will take place at the interface. This can include reactions that produce volatile chemical species like H 2 , CO x , and O 2 , along with ionic species such as OH − and H 3 O + . Here, we see evidence of the importance of different charge carriers with different diffusion rates and the influence of electrochemical processes involved. The application of negative voltage to the cell circuit affects the resistivity of glass producing surfaces with poor conductivity but with some increases in the electrochemical potential producing complicated interactions that are important when the voltage is changed. In the polymer, there is the development of a space charge region and a chemical gradient providing two oppositional forces to current flow, which when released create a complicated discharge process. Here, we give a basic understanding of the charge/discharge of PV cells highlighting how the specific mechanisms are important in understanding some of the degradation processes in PV modules. We find that there is evidence of multiple significant charge carrier species with different diffusion time scales. The glass/polymer interface forms a depleted region of higher resistance after prolonged exposure to current. Charge also builds up at the polymer to cell antireflective coating interface and mostly flows to the gridlines to experience electrochemical reactions. These complexities result in non‐linear behavior where the apparent resistivities of the different layers change during charge/discharging processes, making the modeling of the current flow extremely difficult.

In situ infrared nanospectroscopy of the local processes at the Li/polymer electrolyte interface

Solid-state batteries possess the potential to significantly impact energy storage industries by enabling diverse benefits, such as increased safety and energy density. However, challenges persist with physicochemical properties and processes at electrode/electrolyte interfaces. Thus, there is great need to characterize such interfaces in situ, and unveil scientific understanding that catalyzes engineering solutions. To address this, we conduct multiscale in situ microscopies (optical, atomic force, and infrared near-field) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopies (near-field nanospectroscopy and attenuated total reflection) of intact and electrochemically operational graphene/solid polymer electrolyte interfaces. We find nanoscale structural and chemical heterogeneities intrinsic to the solid polymer electrolyte initiate a cascade of additional interfacial nanoscale heterogeneities during Li plating and stripping; including Li-ion conductivity, electrolyte decomposition, and interphase formation. Moreover, our methodology to nondestructively characterize buried interfaces and interphases in their native environment with nanoscale resolution is readily adaptable to a number of other electrochemical systems and battery chemistries.

Ultra‐Thin Single‐Particle‐Layer Sodium Beta‐Alumina‐Based Composite Polymer Electrolyte Membrane for Sodium‐Metal Batteries

Inorganic/organic composite polymer electrolytes (CPEs) with good flexibility and electrode contact have been pursued for solid-state sodium-metal batteries. However, the application of CPEs for high energy density solid-state sodium-metal batteries is still limited by the low Na + conductivity, large thickness, and low ion transference number. Herein, an ultra-thin single-particle-layer (UTSPL) composite polymer electrolyte membrane with a thickness of ≈20 µm straddled by a sodium beta-alumina ceramic electrolyte (SBACE) is presented. A ceramic Na + -ion electrolyte that bridges or percolates across an ultra-thin and flexible polymer membrane provides: 1) the strength and flexibility from the polymer membrane, 2) excellent electrolyte/electrode interfacial contact, and 3) a percolation path for Na + -ion transfer. Owing to this novel design, the obtained UTSPL-35SBACE membrane exhibits a high Na+-ion conductivity of 0.19 mS cm -1 and a transference number of 0.91 at room temperature, contributing to long-term cycling stability of symmetric sodium cells with a small overpotential. The assembled quasi-solid-state cell with the as-prepared UTSPL-35SBACE membrane displays superior cycling performance with a discharge capacity of 105 mAh g -1 at 0.5 °C rate after 100 cycles and excellent rate performance (82 mAh g -1 at 5 °C rate) at room temperature with the potassium manganese hexacyanoferrate (KMHCF)@CNTs/CNFs cathode, where KMHCF refers to potassium manganese hexacyanoferrate.
