RESUMO

Atomically thin oxide semiconductors are emerging as potential materials for their potentiality in monolithic 3D integration and sensor applications. In this study, a charge transfer method employing viologen, an organic compound with exceptional reduction potential among n-type organics, is presented to modulate the carrier concentration in atomically thin In2O3 without the need of annealing. This study highlights the critical role of channel thickness on doping efficiency, revealing that viologen charge transfer doping is increasingly pronounced in thinner channels owing to their increased surface-to-volume ratio. Upon viologen doping, an electron sheet density of 6.8 × 1012 cm-2 is achieved in 2 nm In2O3 back gate device while preserving carrier mobility. Moreover, by the modification of the functional groups, viologens can be conveniently removed with acetone and an ultrasonic cleaner, making the viologen treatment a reversible process. Based on this doping scheme, we demonstrate an n-type metal oxide semiconductor inverter with viologen-doped In2O3, exhibiting a voltage gain of 26 at VD = 5 V. This complementary pairing of viologen and In2O3 offers ease of control over the carrier concentration, making it suitable for the next-generation electronic applications.

RESUMO

As Earth's primary energy source, surface downward solar radiation (R s) determines the solar power potential and usage for climate change mitigation. Future projections of R s based on climate models have large uncertainties that interfere with the efficient deployment of solar energy to achieve China's carbon-neutrality goal. Here we assess 24 models in the latest Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 with historical observations in China and find systematic biases in simulating historical R s values likely due to model biases in cloud cover and clear-sky radiation, resulting in largely uncertain projections for future changes in R s. Based on emergent constraints, we obtain credible R s with narrowed uncertainties by ∼56% in the mid-twenty-first century and show that the mean R s change during 2050-2069 relative to 1995-2014 is 30% more brightening than the raw projections. Particularly in North China and Southeast China with higher power demand, the constrained projections present more significant brightening, highlighting the importance of considering the spatial changes in future Rs when locating new solar energy infrastructures.

RESUMO

Flexible and wearable hydrogel strain sensors have attracted tremendous attention for applications in human motion and physiological signal monitoring. However, it is still a great challenge to develop a hydrogel strain sensor with certain mechanical properties and tensile deformation capabilities, which can be in conformal contact with the target organ and also have self-healing properties, self-adhesive capability, biocompatibility, antibacterial properties, high strain sensitivity, and stable electrical performance. In this paper, an ionic conductive hydrogel (named PBST) is rationally designed by proportionally mixing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), borax, silk fibroin (SF), and tannic acid (TA). SF can not only be a reinforcement to introduce an energy dissipation mechanism into the dynamically cross-linked hydrogel network to stabilize the non-Newtonian behavior of PVA and borax but it can also act as a cross-linking agent to combine with TA to reduce the dissociation of TA on the hydrogel network, improving the mechanical properties and viscoelasticity of the hydrogel. The combination of SF and TA can improve the self-healing ability of the hydrogel and realize the adjustable viscoelasticity of the hydrogel without sacrificing other properties. The obtained hydrogel has excellent stretchability (strain > 1000%) and shows good conformal contact with human skin. When the hydrogel is damaged by external strain, it can rapidly self-repair (mechanical and electrical properties) without external stimuli. It shows adhesiveness and repeatable adhesiveness to different materials (steel, wood, PTFE, glass, iron, and cotton fabric) and biological tissues (pigskin) and is easy to peel off without residue. The obtained PBST conductive hydrogel also has a wide strain-sensing range (>650%) and reliable stability. The hydrogel adhered to the skin surface can monitor large strain movements such as in finger joints, wrist joints, knee joints, and so on and detect swallowing, smiling, facial bulging and calming, and other micro-deformation behaviors. It can also distinguish physical signals such as light smile, big laugh, fast and slow breathing, and deep and shallow breathing. Therefore, the PBST conductive hydrogel material with multiple synergistic functions has great potential as a flexible wearable strain sensor. The PBST hydrogel has antibacterial properties and good biocompatibility at the same time, which provides a safety guarantee for it as a flexible wearable strain sensor. This work is expected to provide a new way for people to develop ideal wearable strain sensors.

RESUMO

The near-surface lapse rate reflects the atmospheric stability above the surface. Lapse rates calculated from land surface temperature (γTs) and near-surface air temperature (γTa) have been widely used. However, γTs and γTa have different sensitivity to local surface energy balance and large-scale energy transport and therefore they may have diverse spatial and temporal variability, which has not been clearly illustrated in existing studies. In this study, we calculated and compared γTa and γTs at ~ 2200 stations over China from 1961 to 2014. This study finds that γTa and γTs have a similar multiyear national average (0.53 °C/100 m) and seasonal cycle. Nevertheless, γTs shows steeper multiyear average than γTa at high latitudes, and γTs in summer is steeper than γTa, especially in Northwest China. The North China shows the shallowest γTa and γTs, then inhibiting the vertical diffusion of air pollutants and further reducing the lapse rates due to accumulation of pollutants. Moreover, the long-term trend signs for γTa and γTs are opposite in northern China. However, the trends in γTa and γTs are both negative in Southwest China and positive in Southeast China. Surface incident solar radiation, surface downward longwave radiation and precipitant frequency jointly can account for 80% and 75% of the long-term trends in γTa and γTs in China, respectively, which provides an explanation of trends of γTa and γTs from perspective of surface energy balance.
