Abstract Bamboo is now widely used in construction, papermaking, textile, furniture and other fields because of its renewable, fast-growing, high-strength, high-yield easy processing. However, compared with wood, bamboo products are more vulnerable to damage by fungi pests. An effective eco-friendly method urgently needed improve their physical chemical properties, decay resistance anti-mildew hydrophobic properties. Here, was heated methyl silicone oil. The effect different temperatures...

Abstract This study aims to investigate the effects of different mapping unit scales and area on uncertainty rules landslide susceptibility prediction (LSP). To illustrate various scales, Ganzhou City in China, its eastern region (Ganzhou East), Ruijin County East were chosen. Different are represented by grid units with spatial resolution 30 60 m, as well slope that extracted multi-scale segmentation method. The 3855 locations 21 typical environmental factors first determined create...

Abstract Despite the same crystal structure and homologous constituent elements, chalcopyrite compounds ABTe 2 (A = Cu, Ag; B Ga, In) exhibit distinct electronic thermal transport properties. The aim of this work is to understand origin such discrepancy employing experiments theoretical calculations. results Hall coefficient measurements, absorption spectroscopy, studies suggest deep‐level in‐gap states induced by native A‐site vacancies play a key role in observed intrinsic semiconductor...

The manipulation of individual intrinsic point defects is crucial for boosting the thermoelectric performances n-Bi2Te3-based films, but was not achieved in previous studies. In this work, we realize independent Te vacancies VTe and antisite TeBi BiTe molecular beam epitaxially grown n-Bi2Te3 which directly monitored by a scanning tunneling microscope. By virtue introducing dominant antisites, film can achieve state-of-the-art power factor 5.05 mW m–1 K–2, significantly superior to films...

As a novel class of soft matter, two-dimensional (2D) atomic nanosheet-like crystals have attracted much attention for energy storage devices due to the fact that nearly all atoms can be exposed electrolyte and involved in redox reactions. Herein, atomically thin γ-FeOOH nanosheets with thickness ∼1.5 nm are synthesized high yield, band electronic structures nanosheet revealed using density-functional theory calculations first time. The rationally designed γ-FeOOH@rGO composites...

Although defect engineering is the core strategy to improve thermoelectric properties, there are limited methods effectively modulate designed defects. Herein, we demonstrate that a high ZT value of 1.36 at 775 K and average 0.99 in temperature range from 300 825 realized Zn-containing PbTe by designing complex By combining first-principles calculations experiments, show Zn atoms occupy both Pb sites interstitial couple with each other. The contraction stress induced via substitutional on...

Interactions among various film growth parameters, such as the substrate temperature (Tsub), thickness (d), and composition, play a crucial role in controlling type density of intrinsic point defects. In turn, defects modulate control electronic transport properties Bi2Te3 films. We have grown n-type films with different d by molecular beam epitaxy at Tsub. The formation was analyzed combined use angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements. Two important findings were...
