New Type of Nitrides with High Electrical and Thermal Conductivities

The nitrogen dimer as both a fundamental building unit in designing a new type of nitrides, and a material gene associated with high electrical and thermal conductivities is investigated by first principles calculations.The results indicate that the predicted Si N4 is structurally stable and reasonably energy-favored with a striking feature in its band structure that exhibits free electron-like energy dispersions. It possesses a high electrical conductivity(5.07 × 10~5 S/cm) and a high thermal conductivity(371 W/m·K) comparable to copper. The validity is tested by isostructural Al N4 and Si C_4. It is demonstrated that the nitrogen dimers can supply a high density of delocalized electrons in this new type of nitrides.     

单层单晶石墨烯与柔性基底界面性能的实验研究

单晶石墨烯具有更优异的力学及电学性能,有望成为新一代柔性电子器件的核心材料.因此,有必要从实验的角度精细分析化学气相沉积法制得的大尺度单晶石墨烯与柔性基底复合结构的界面力学行为.本文通过显微拉曼光谱实验方法测量了不同长度的单层单晶石墨烯/PET(聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯)基底的界面力学性能参数及其在长度方向上界面边缘的尺度效应.实验给出了石墨烯在PET基底加载过程中与基底间黏附、滑移、脱黏三个界面状态的演化过程与应力分布规律.实验发现,单晶石墨烯与柔性基底间由范德瓦耳斯力控制的界面应变传递过程存在明显的边缘效应,并且与石墨烯的长度有关.界面的切应力具有尺度效应,其值随石墨烯长度的增加而减小,而石墨烯界面传递最大应变以及界面脱黏极限则不受试件尺度的影响.     

高温高压下掺杂N型PbTe的热电性能

 以Sb₂Te₃作为掺杂剂,利用高温高压技术,成功合成出N型PbTe。在常温下对其热电性能的测试结果表明：掺杂微量的Sb₂Te₃后,PbTe的赛贝克系数绝对值和电阻率大幅度下降,热导率随掺杂浓度的增加缓慢升高。掺杂后PbTe的品质因子先大幅度增加,后逐渐降低,最高达到8.7×10^-4 K^-1,它比常压合成的PbTe掺杂PbI₂高一倍以上。结果表明,将高温高压方法与掺杂相结合,能有效地改善PbTe的热电性能。

新型铁基超导体材料的研究进展

文章主要介绍了碱金属插层法合成新型铁基超导体的研究进展.通过采用碱金属K对FeSe层状材料插层的方法,得到了一种新型的铁基超导体K0.8Fe1.7Se2,并对该材料的晶体结构与物性进行了研究.结果表明,该化合物的超导转变温度达到30K,这是FeSe体系在常压下的最高超导转变温度.同时,观察到该体系中存在转变温度为43K的超导相,但未得到纯相.通过磁性元素Co的掺杂研究,进一步加深了对K0.8Fe1.7Se2体系超导演化规律的认识.该超导体的发现对深入认识铁基超导体的超导机理,探索具有更高超导转变温度的铁基超导体具有重要意义.     

Pressure-Induced Superconductivity in the Charge-Density-Wave Compound LaTe2-xSbx(x=0 and 0.4)

Magnetic CeTe₂ achieving superconductivity under external pressure has received considerable attention.The intermingling of 4f and 5d electrons from Ce raised the speculation of an unconventional pairing mechanism arising from magnetic fluctuations.Here,we address this speculation using a nonmagnetic 4f-electron-free LaTe₂as an example.No structural phase transition can be observed up to 35 GPa in the in situ synchrotron diffraction patterns.Subsequent high-pressure electri...
