RESUMEN
Orbital angular momentum flow can be used to develop a low-dissipation electronic information device by manipulating the orbital current. However, efficiently generating and fully harnessing orbital currents is a formidable challenge. In this study, an approach is presented that induces a colossal orbital current by gradient oxidation in Pt/Ta to enhance spin-orbit torque (SOT) and achieve high-efficiency magnetization switching. The maximum efficiency of the SOT before and after the gradient oxidation of Ta is improved relative to that of Pt by ≈600 and 1200%, respectively. The large SOT originates from the colossal orbital current because of the orbital Rashba-Edelstein effect induced by the gradient oxidation of Ta. In addition, a large spin-to-charge conversion efficiency is observed in yttrium iron garnet/Pt/TaOx because of the inverse orbital Rashba-Edelstein effect. Harnessing the orbital current can help effectively minimize the critical current density of the current-induced magnetization switching to 2.26-1.08 × 106 A cm-2, marking a 12-fold reduction compared to that using Pt. This findings provide a new path for research on low-dissipation spin-orbit devices and improve the tunability of orbital current generation.
RESUMEN
As a long-established model of schooling, the boarding system is commonly practiced in countries around the world. Numerous scholars have conducted a great deal of research on the relationship between the boarding school and student development, but the results of the research are quite divergent. In order to clarify the real effects of boarding school on students' development, this study used meta-analysis to quantify 49 (91 effect sizes) experimental or quasi-experimental studies on related topics at home and abroad. The results find that: (1) Overall, boarding school has no significant predictive effect on student development, with a combined effect size of 0.002 (p > 0.05); (2) Specifically, boarding school has a significant positive predictive effect on students' cognitive development (g = 0.248, p < 0.001), a significant negative predictive effect on students' affective and attitudinal development (g = -0.159, p < 0.05), and no significant predictive effect on students' behavioral development (g = -0.115, p > 0.05) and physical development (g = -0.038, p > 0.05); (3) The relationship between the two is moderated by the school stage and the type of boarding school, but not by the instruments; (4) Compared with primary school students, senior high school students and urban boarding students, the negative predictive effect of boarding system on junior middle school students and rural boarding students is more significant. In addition, there are some limitations in the study, such as the limited number of moderator variables included, the results of the study are easily affected by the quality of the included literature, and the dimensionality of the core variable "student development" is not comprehensive enough. In the future, further validation should be conducted through in-depth longitudinal or experimental studies.
RESUMEN
TiO2, ZrO2 and a series of TiO2-ZrO2 (TxZ1, x means the atomic ratio of Ti/Zr = 10, 5, 1, 0.2 and 0.1) composite oxide supports were prepared through co-precipitation, and then 3 wt% Co was loaded through wetness impregnation methods. The obtained 3 wt% Co/TiO2 (3CT), 3 wt% Co/ZrO2 (3CZ) and 3 wt% Co/TxZ1 (3CTxZ1) catalysts were evaluated for the oxidative ethane dehydrogenation reaction with CO2 (CO2-ODHE) as a soft oxidant. 3CT1Z1 catalyst exhibits excellent catalytic properties, with C2H4 yield, C2H6 conversion and CO2 conversion about 24.5 %, 33.8 % and 18.0 % at 650 °C, respectively. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), in-situ Raman, UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-vis DRS), H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR), Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and quasi in-situ X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) have been utilized to thoroughly characterize the investigated catalysts. The results revealed that 3CT1Z1 produced TiZrO4 solid solution with more metal defect sites and oxygen vacancies (Ov), promoting the formation of Co2+-TiZrO4 structure. Furthermore, the presence of Ov and Ti3+can facilitate the high dispersion and stabilization of Co2+, as well as suppressing the severe reduction of Co2+, leading to superior ethane oxidative dehydrogenation activity. Besides, less Co0 is beneficial to ODHE reaction, because of its promotion effects for reverse water gas shift reaction; however, more Co0 results in dry reforming reaction (DRE). This work will shed new lights for the design and preparation of highly efficient catalysts for ethylene production.
RESUMEN
Spin-orbit torque (SOT) has emerged as an effective means of manipulating magnetization. However, the current energy efficiency of SOT operation is inefficient due to low damping-like SOT efficiency per unit current bias. In this work, we dope conventional rare earth oxides, GdOy, into highly conductive platinum by magnetron sputtering to form a new group of spin Hall materials. A large damping-like spin-orbit torque (DL-SOT) efficiency of about 0.35 ± 0.013 is obtained in Pt0.70(GdOy)0.30 measured by the spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance (ST-FMR) technique, which is about five times that of pure Pt under the same conditions. The substantial enhancement of the spin Hall effect is revealed by theoretical analysis to be attributed to the strong side jump induced by the rare earth oxide GdOy impurities. Moreover, this large DL-SOT efficiency contributes to a low critical switching current density (8.0 × 106 A·cm-2 in the Pt0.70(GdOy)0.30 layer) in current-induced magnetization switching measurements. This systematic study on SOT switching properties suggests that Pt1-x(GdOy)x is an attractive spin current source with large DL-SOT efficiency for future SOT applications and provides another idea to regulate the spin Hall angle.
