Growth of multilayer thin film structures containing dielectric and metal layers using physical vapor deposition is investigated for use in applications requiring the control of thermal and solar radiation propagating through glass windows. In particular, metal-dielectric multilayer structures reflecting UV, near-infrared and thermal radiations whilst maintaining a maximum transmission in the visible range are prepared using both an E-Beam and Thermal evaporator and a RF Magnetron sputtering system. Measured transmittance spectra for the developed structures are in agreement with simulation results and demonstrate that with the use of optimum metal-dielectric layer combination it is possible to realize a coated glass …
Atomic Roughness Enhanced Friction On Hydrogenated Graphene, Yalin Dong, Xiawa Wu, Ashlie Martini
Atomic Roughness Enhanced Friction On Hydrogenated Graphene, Yalin Dong, Xiawa Wu, Ashlie Martini
Dr. Yalin Dong
Atomic friction on hydrogenated graphene is investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. Hydrogenation is found to increase friction significantly, and the atomic-level information provided by the simulations reveals that atomic roughness induced by hydrogenation is the primary cause of the friction enhancement. Other proposed mechanisms, specifically adhesion and rigidity, are excluded based on the simulation results and analyses performed using the Prandtl–Tomlinson model. In addition, it is found that friction does not monotonically increase with hydrogen coverage on the graphene surface; instead, a maximum friction is observed at a hydrogen coverage between 5 and 10%.
Effects Of Substrate Roughness And Electron–Phonon Coupling On Thickness-Dependent Friction Of Graphene, Yalin Dong
Effects Of Substrate Roughness And Electron–Phonon Coupling On Thickness-Dependent Friction Of Graphene, Yalin Dong
Dr. Yalin Dong
Molecular dynamics simulation and the two-temperature method are carried out to model the effects of substrate roughness as well as electron–phonon coupling on thickness-dependent friction on graphene. It is found that substrate roughness can significantly enhance friction of graphene, which is orders of magnitude larger than that on smooth substrate due to puckering effect. Additionally, the adhesive force between graphene and substrate plays opposite roles for smooth and rough substrates. While on a smooth substrate, a larger adhesion hinders the wrinkle formation in graphene, therefore suppressing friction, on a rough substrate, adhesion helps induce atomic roughness in graphene and leads …

We have developed an infrared imaging setup enabling in situ infrared images to be acquired, and expanded on capabilities of an infrared imaging as a high-throughput screening technique, determination of a critical thickness of a Pd capping layer which significantly blocks infrared emission from below, enhancement of sensitivity to hydrogenation and dehydrogenation by normalizing raw infrared intensity of a Mg thin film to an inert reference, rapid and systematic screening of hydrogenation and dehydrogenation properties of a Mg–Ni composition spread covered by a thickness gradient Pd capping layer, and detection of formation of a Mg2Si phase in a Mg thin …

Environmental friendly ferroelectric relaxor Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3 thin films with an additional 2% Mn dopant were epitaxially fabricated on the (001) LaAlO3 single crystal substrates by pulsed laser deposition. Microstructure characterizations from x-ray diffraction suggest that the films are c-axis oriented with the interface relationship of [101]Mn:BZT//[100]LAO and (001)Mn:BZT //(001)LAO. The microwave dielectric property measurements (13–17.5 GHz) reveal that the films have excellent dielectric properties with large tunability, high dielectric constant, and low dielectric loss, which the average value is 25.9%, 169 and 0.054, respectively. It is indicated that the additional 2% Mn doped Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3 thin films can be used for the …
