All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) with adequately selected cathode materials exhibit a higher energy density and better safety than conventional lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Ni-rich layered cathodes are benchmark materials for traditional LIBs owing to their high energy density. Recent studies have highlighted the advantages of using crack-free, single-crystalline cathode materials in ASSBs. In this study, a scalable infiltration sheet-type process was used to fabricate composite electrodes with different cathode-material morphologies for ASSBs. Typically, crack-free single-crystalline materials exhibit better retention performance and lower rate capability (i.e., slower kinetics in charge‒discharge processes) than polycrystalline cathode materials. Li6PS5Cl-infiltrated polycrystalline electrodes showed excellent retention performance and rate capability. Galvanostatic intermittent titration technique analysis and transmission electron microscopy of the single-crystalline electrode confirmed severe polarization and the presence of a rock-salt-structure layer in the cathode particles; these results indicated side reactions within the layered structure of the material. In contrast, composite electrodes consisting of polycrystalline cathode materials infiltrated with the solid electrolyte Li6PS5Cl showed excellent electrochemical performance owing to intimate electrode–electrolyte interfacial contact. The result from this study confirmed the critical influence of interface engineering and material morphology on the overall performance and stability of ASSBs and could facilitate the development of high-performance ASSBs in the future. This study introduces a technique for utilizing conventional lithium-ion battery electrodes in all-solid-state batteries. By infiltrating a solid electrolyte solution into the porous electrode, the effects based on the morphology of the active material were investigated. In poly-crystalline materials, high coverage and the formation of a thin side reaction layer were observed. Consequently, the infiltration process also confirmed the superior performance of poly-crystalline materials.
选用合适的正极材料的全固态电池(assb)比传统锂离子电池(LIBs)具有更高的能量密度和更好的安全性。富镍层状阴极具有高能量密度,是传统lib的基准材料。最近的研究强调了在assb中使用无裂纹单晶阴极材料的优点。在本研究中,采用可扩展渗透片式工艺制备了不同阴极材料形态的assb复合电极。通常,无裂纹单晶材料比多晶阴极材料表现出更好的保留性能和更低的速率能力(即,在充放电过程中更慢的动力学)。li6ps5cl浸润多晶电极表现出优异的保留性能和速率性能。恒流间歇滴定技术分析和透射电镜分析证实了单晶电极的严重极化和阴极颗粒中存在岩盐结构层;这些结果表明在材料的层状结构中存在副反应。而多晶阴极材料与固态电解质Li6PS5Cl相渗透的复合电极,由于电极-电解质界面接触密切,表现出优异的电化学性能。本研究结果证实了界面工程和材料形态对assb整体性能和稳定性的重要影响,为未来高性能assb的发展提供了基础。本研究介绍了一种在全固态电池中利用传统锂离子电池电极的技术。通过将固体电解质溶液渗透到多孔电极中,研究了活性物质形态对电极性能的影响。在多晶材料中,观察到高覆盖率和薄侧反应层的形成。因此,渗透过程也证实了多晶材料的优越性能。

Nitrogen-containing compounds such as imides and amides have been reported as efficient materials that promote ammonia decomposition over nonnoble metal catalysts. However, these compounds decompose in an air atmosphere and become inactive, which leads to difficulty in handling. Here, we focused on perovskite oxynitrides as air-stable and efficient supports for ammonia decomposition catalysts. Ni-loaded oxynitrides exhibited 2.5–18 times greater catalytic activity than did the corresponding oxide-supported Ni catalysts, even without noticeable differences in the Ni particle size and surface area of the supports. The catalytic performance of the Ni-loaded oxynitrides is well correlated with the nitrogen desorption temperature during N2 temperature-programmed desorption, which suggests that the lattice nitrogen in the oxynitride support rather than the Ni surface is the active site for ammonia decomposition. Furthermore, NH3 temperature-programmed surface reactions and density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that NH3 molecules are preferentially adsorbed on the nitrogen vacancy sites on the support surface rather than on the Ni surface. Thus, the ammonia decomposition reaction is facilitated by a vacancy-mediated reaction mechanism. Oxynitride-supported Ni catalysts exhibit much higher activity than oxide-supported Ni catalysts for ammonia decomposition reaction. Ammonia is activated at nitrogen vacancy sites on the surface of oxynitride in close vicinity to the supported Ni nanoparticles rather than on the Ni surface, and therefore the catalytic performance is dominated by ease of nitrogen vacancy formation on the catalyst surface.
含氮化合物如亚胺和酰胺已被报道为比非贵金属催化剂更有效地促进氨分解的材料。然而,这些化合物在空气中分解并变得无活性,这导致处理困难。在这里,我们重点研究了钙钛矿氮氧化物作为氨分解催化剂的空气稳定和高效支撑。负载Ni的氮氧化物的催化活性比相应的负载Ni的催化剂高2.5-18倍,即使在Ni粒度和载体的表面积上没有明显的差异。在氮气程序升温解吸过程中,负载Ni的氮氧化物的催化性能与氮解吸温度有良好的相关性,这表明氮氧化物载体中的晶格氮是氨分解的活性位点,而不是Ni表面。此外,NH3温度程序表面反应和密度泛函理论(DFT)计算表明,NH3分子优先吸附在载体表面的氮空位上,而不是在Ni表面。因此,氨分解反应是由空位介导的反应机制促进的。氮氧负载的Ni催化剂在氨分解反应中表现出比氧化物负载的Ni催化剂更高的活性。氨在靠近负载Ni纳米颗粒的氮氧化物表面的氮空位位置被激活,而不是在Ni表面,因此催化性能主要取决于催化剂表面氮空位形成的难易程度。

Novel platinum nanoclusters (Pt NCs) induce mitochondrial apoptosis and damaging autophagy for the treatment of osteosarcoma—from the perspective of P53 mutation status in different cell lines 新型铂纳米团簇(Pt NCs)诱导线粒体凋亡和损伤性自噬治疗骨肉瘤——从不同细胞系P53突变状态的角度

This study aimed to investigate the anticancer efficacy and underlying mechanism of novel platinum nanoclusters (Pt NCs) in osteosarcoma cell lines exhibiting distinct P53 expression profiles, namely MG-63 (P53−) and U2-OS (P53+). The findings revealed that Pt NCs exerted an inhibitory effect on proliferation, migration, and colony formation while promoting apoptosis in both MG-63 (P53−) and U2-OS (P53+) cells. The inhibitory effect on the malignant characteristics of MG-63 (P53−) cells was more obvious, indicating that the potential anticancer effect of Pt NCs was not dependent on P53. Animal experiments have substantiated the in vivo anticancer properties of Pt NCs, while also revealing their lower toxicity on cells and tissues. Pt NCs possess the ability to impede cell proliferation by inducing DNA damage and arresting the cell cycle in the G1 phase and possess the ability to promote BAX/Bcl-2/Caspase-3/mitochondrial apoptosis. Pt NCs may promote mitochondrial apoptosis by promoting damaging autophagy, thereby promoting cellular demise. This study has confirmed the P53-independent anticancer impact of Pt NCs on osteosarcoma in vitro and in vivo. Pt NCs may play a therapeutic role in more sensitive MG-63 (P53−) cells by promoting DNA damage to arrest the cell cycle, stimulating BAX/Bcl-2/Caspase-3/mitochondrial apoptosis, and initiating damaging autophagy.
本研究旨在探讨新型铂纳米团簇(Pt NCs)在具有不同P53表达谱的骨肉瘤细胞系中的抗癌功效和潜在机制,即MG-63 (P53−)和U2-OS (P53+)。结果表明,Pt NCs对MG-63 (P53−)和U2-OS (P53+)细胞的增殖、迁移和集落形成均有抑制作用,同时促进细胞凋亡。对MG-63 (P53−)细胞恶性特征的抑制作用更为明显,说明Pt NCs的潜在抗癌作用不依赖于P53。动物实验证实了Pt NCs的体内抗癌特性,同时也揭示了其对细胞和组织的较低毒性。Pt NCs具有通过诱导DNA损伤和阻滞G1期细胞周期来抑制细胞增殖的能力,并具有促进BAX/Bcl-2/Caspase-3/线粒体凋亡的能力。Pt NCs可能通过促进破坏性的自噬来促进线粒体凋亡,从而促进细胞死亡。本研究在体外和体内证实了Pt NCs对骨肉瘤的p53非依赖性抗癌作用。Pt NCs可能在更敏感的MG-63 (P53−)细胞中发挥治疗作用,通过促进DNA损伤来阻止细胞周期,刺激BAX/Bcl-2/Caspase-3/线粒体凋亡,并启动破坏性自噬。

Hysteresis is an inherent property of first-order transition materials that poses challenges for solid-state refrigeration applications. Extensive research has been conducted, but the intrinsic origins of hysteresis remain poorly understood. Here, we report a study of the kinetic origin of hysteresis and the enhanced barocaloric effect (BCE) in MnCoGe-based alloys with ~2% nonmagnetic In atoms. First-principles calculations demonstrate that substituting In atoms at Ge sites rather than Co sites results in a lower energy barrier, indicating a narrower hysteresis for the former. Combining neutron powder diffraction (NPD) with magnetic and calorimetric measurements completely verified the theoretical prediction. Electron local function (ELF) calculations further reveal the atomic coordination origin of regulated hysteresis due to weaker Co–Ge bonds when In atoms replace Ge, which is opposite to Co sites. Moreover, we experimentally investigate the BCE and find that although MnCo(Ge0.98In0.02) has a lower barocaloric entropy change ΔSP than does Mn(Co0.98In0.02)Ge, the reversible ΔSrev of the former is advantageous owing to a smaller hysteresis. The maximum ΔSrev of MnCo(Ge0.98In0.02) is 1.7 times greater than that of Mn(Co0.98In0.02)Ge. These results reveal the atomic-scale mechanism regulating hysteresis and provide insights into tailoring the functional properties of novel caloric refrigeration materials. First-principles calculations demonstrated that the substitution of In for Ge has a lower energy barrier for phase transition than the substitution of In for Co in MnCoGe alloys. ELF calculations further reveal the regulated hysteresis’s atomic coordination origin. This theoretical prediction is completely verified by combining neutron, magnetic and calorimetric measurements; consequently, a largely enhanced barocaloric effect has been achieved. Hysteresis is an inherent property of first-order transition materials that poses challenges for solid-state refrigeration applications. Here we report a study of the kinetic origin of hysteresis and enhanced barocaloric effect (BCE) in MnCoGe-based alloys with about 2% non-magnetic In atoms.

滞回是一阶过渡材料的固有特性,对固态制冷应用提出了挑战。已经进行了广泛的研究,但对迟滞的内在根源仍然知之甚少。本文报道了含~2%非磁性in原子的mncoge基合金中迟滞的动力学起源和增强的压热效应(BCE)的研究。第一性原理计算表明,在Ge位取代In原子而不是Co位导致较低的能量势垒,表明前者的滞后更窄。结合中子粉末衍射(NPD)和磁量热测量,完全验证了理论预测。电子局域函数(ELF)计算进一步揭示了当In原子取代Ge时,由于Co - Ge键较弱而导致的调节滞后的原子配位起源,这与Co位相反。此外,我们通过实验研究了BCE,发现尽管MnCo(Ge0.98In0.02)具有比Mn(Co0.98In0.02)Ge更低的压热熵变ΔSP,但前者的可逆ΔSrev由于其较小的滞后而具有优势。MnCo(Ge0.98In0.02)的最大值ΔSrev是Mn(Co0.98In0.02)Ge的1.7倍。这些结果揭示了原子尺度的滞回调节机制,并为调整新型热制冷材料的功能特性提供了见解。第一性原理计算表明,在MnCoGe合金中,以In取代Ge比以In取代Co具有更低的相变能垒。极低频计算进一步揭示了调节迟滞的原子配位起源。这一理论预测得到了中子、磁和量热测量的全面验证;因此,大大增强了压热效应。滞回是一阶过渡材料的固有特性,对固态制冷应用提出了挑战。本文研究了含有2%非磁性in原子的mncoge基合金中迟滞和增强的压热效应(BCE)的动力学起源。第一性原理计算表明,在MnCoGe合金中,以In取代Ge比以In取代Co具有更低的相变能垒,表明前者的滞后更小。电子局域函数(ELF)计算进一步揭示了当In原子取代Ge而不是Co位时,由于较弱的Co-Ge键而导致的调节滞后的原子配位起源。这一理论预测得到了中子与磁、量热测量相结合的完全验证,从而实现了强增强的可逆BCE。这些结果揭示了原子尺度的滞回调节机制,并为调整新型热制冷材料的功能特性提供了见解。

Mussel-inspired thermo-switchable underwater adhesive based on a Janus hydrogel 基于 Janus 水凝胶的贻贝热转换水下粘合剂
IF 8.6 2区 材料科学 Q1 MATERIALS SCIENCE, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-10-11 DOI: 10.1038/s41427-024-00569-1

On-demand underwater adhesives with excellent adhesive and gentle detachment properties enable stable connections to various biomedical devices and biointerfaces and avoid the risk of harmful tissue damage upon detachment. Herein, we present a Janus hydrogel adhesive that can reversibly switch its adhesion strength, which is controlled by temperature, using a thermoresponsive polymer and mussel-inspired molecules. This thermoswitchable adhesive (TSA) hydrogel displays both strong adhesion and gentle detachment with an over 1000-fold gap in underwater adhesion strength onto glass, titanium, aluminum, and Teflon substrates when exposed to temperatures above and below the lower critical solution temperature (LCST). The adhesion switch is possibly caused by the change in toughness of the TSA hydrogels with temperature because the Janus hydrogel possesses gradient crosslinked structures. Moreover, the lowermost surface is sufficiently soft to gently detach from the substrate below the LCST. The electrode-integrated hydrogel remains on human skin, and electrical signals are continuous over 10 min above the LCST. In contrast, commercially available hydrogel electrodes quickly swell and detach from the skin. The thermoswitchability of the TSA hydrogel, with its robust adhesion and gentle detachment, offers significant potential for biomedical applications characterized by minimally invasive procedures.

Cross-luminescence (CL) in a barium fluoride (BaF2) scintillator arising from the recombination of a valence band electron and a core band hole results in a fast picosecond decay time. However, the CL emission wavelength in the vacuum ultraviolet region is difficult to detect, and intrinsically intense and slow nanosecond self-trapped exciton (STE) luminescence occurs. Herein, we report a redshift in the CL emission wavelength with high-pressure application. The wavelength of the CL emission shifted from 221 nm to 240 nm when 5.0 GPa was applied via a sapphire anvil cell. Increasing the pressure decreases the core-valence bandgap due to the downward expansion of the valence band, resulting in a decrease in the valence band minimum. The onset of a phase transition from a cubic crystal structure to an orthorhombic crystal structure at 3.7 GPa inhibited the recombination of conduction band electrons and self-trapped holes, leading to the disappearance of the STE emission. Manipulating the band structure of BaF2 by high-pressure application enables control of its luminescence emission, providing a pathway toward solving the problems inherent in this leading fast-response scintillator.

在氟化钡(BaF2)闪烁体中,价带电子和核带空穴重组产生的交叉发光(CL)会导致皮秒级的快速衰减。然而,CL 在真空紫外区的发射波长难以探测,而且会出现本质上强烈而缓慢的纳秒自俘获激子(STE)发光。在此,我们报告了高压应用下 CL 发射波长的红移。当通过蓝宝石砧电池施加 5.0 GPa 压力时,CL 发射波长从 221 纳米变为 240 纳米。由于价带向下扩展,增加压力会减小核-价带隙,导致价带最小值减小。在 3.7 GPa 时,从立方晶体结构到正方晶体结构的相变开始,抑制了导带电子和自阱空穴的重组,导致 STE 发射消失。通过高压应用操纵 BaF2 的能带结构可以控制其发光发射,为解决这种领先的快速反应闪烁体所固有的问题提供了一条途径。氟化钡中的交叉发光(CL)源于价带电子和核带空穴的重组,以及本质上强烈的自俘获激子(STE)发光。在此,我们报告了通过蓝宝石砧电池施加高压使 CL 发射波长发生重移的现象。由于价带向下扩展,增加压力会减小核-价带隙。在 3.7 GPa 时,立方晶体结构开始向正方晶体结构发生相变,从而抑制了导带电子和自阱空穴的重组,导致 STE 发射消失。

Producing uniformly dispersed nanoparticles attached to substrates in industrial quantities is difficult.

The demand for high-capacity batteries with long cycle life and safety has been increasing owing to the expanding mid-to-large battery market. Li–S batteries are suitable energy-storage devices because of their reversibility, high theoretical capacity, and inexpensive construction materials. However, their performance is limited by various factors, including the shuttle effect and dendrite growth at the anode. Here, an integrated electrode for use in all-solid-state (ASS) Li–S batteries was formed via hot pressing. In detail, S particles dispersed in a functionalized reduced graphite oxide (rGO) cathode with a binder-less polymer electrolyte (PE) and a dual-anion ionic liquid-containing cross-linked poly(ethylene oxide)–Li bis(fluoromethanesulfonyl)imide–N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide-based solid polymer electrolyte (SPE, PEO–LiFSI0.1(Pyr14TFSI)0.4) were hot-pressed into an integrated electrode, which serves as both the cathode and electrolyte. The resulting S/rGO-based solid-state Li–S batteries exhibited more stable performance than Li–S batteries using liquid electrolytes did, indicating that the dual-anion SPE layer effectively suppressed dendritic Li formation and the shuttle effect with high ionic conductivity. At 0.1 C, the battery discharge capacities were 957 and 576 mAh g−1 in the first cycle and after 100 cycles, respectively. At 1 C, the reversible capacity was 590 and 417 mAh g−1 in the first cycle and after 100 cycles, respectively (capacity retention = 71%). Therefore, the proposed S/rGO/PE//LiFSI0.1(Pyr14TFSI)0.4-integrated electrodes are beneficial for ASS Li–S batteries. Sulfur particles disperse in a functionalized reduced graphite oxide (rGO) cathode with a binder-less polymer electrolyte and a dual-anion ionic liquid-containing cross-linked PEO–LiFSI0.1(Pyr14TFSI)0.4 are hot-pressed into an integrated electrode, serving as both the cathode and electrolyte. Dual-anion solid polymer electrolyte and rGO-functional integrated sulfur electrode presents a novel method to improve the electrochemical properties of lithium-sulfur batteries.
随着中大型电池市场的扩大,对循环寿命长、安全性好的大容量电池的需求也在不断增加。锂硫电池具有可逆性、理论容量大、结构材料便宜等优点,是一种合适的储能设备。然而,它们的性能受到各种因素的限制,包括梭子效应和阳极的枝晶生长。在这里,通过热压形成了用于全固态(ASS) Li-S电池的集成电极。具体而言,S颗粒分散在功能化还原氧化石墨(rGO)阴极上,采用无粘结剂聚合物电解质(PE)和双阴离子液体(含交联聚(环氧乙烷)-锂二(氟甲烷磺酰)亚胺- n -丁基- n -甲基吡啶二(三氟甲烷磺酰)亚胺基固体聚合物电解质(SPE, PEO-LiFSI0.1 (Pyr14TFSI)0.4)热压成一个集成电极,作为阴极和电解质。结果表明,基于S/ rgo的固态锂电池性能比使用液体电解质的锂电池更稳定,这表明双阴离子SPE层有效抑制了枝晶锂的形成和高离子电导率的穿梭效应。在0.1 C下,第一次循环和100次循环后,电池的放电容量分别为957和576 mAh g−1。在1℃下,第一次循环和100次循环后的可逆容量分别为590和417 mAh g - 1(容量保持率为71%)。因此,所提出的S/rGO/PE//LiFSI0.1(Pyr14TFSI)0.4集成电极有利于ASS Li-S电池。硫颗粒分散在功能化还原氧化石墨(rGO)阴极中,采用无粘结剂聚合物电解质和含有交联PEO-LiFSI0.1 (Pyr14TFSI)0.4的双阴离子液体,热压成集成电极,同时充当阴极和电解质。双阴离子固体聚合物电解质和rgo功能集成硫电极是改善锂硫电池电化学性能的新方法。

The charge density wave (CDW), as a hallmark of vanadium-based kagome superconductor AV3Sb5 (A = K, Rb, Cs), has attracted intensive attention. However, the fundamental controversy regarding the underlying mechanism of CDW therein persists. Recently, the vanadium-based bi-layered kagome metal ScV6Sn6, reported to exhibit a long-range charge order below 94 K, has emerged as a promising candidate to further clarify this core issue. Here, employing micro-focusing angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (μ-ARPES) and first-principles calculations, we systematically studied the unique CDW order in vanadium-based bi-layered kagome metals by comparing ScV6Sn6 with its isostructural counterpart YV6Sn6, which lacks a CDW ground state. Combining ARPES data and the corresponding joint density of states (DOS), we suggest that the VHS nesting mechanism might be invalid in these materials. Besides, in ScV6Sn6, we identified multiple hybridization energy gaps resulting from CDW-induced band folding, along with an anomalous band dispersion, implying a potential electron-phonon coupling-driven mechanism underlying the formation of the CDW order. Our finding not only comprehensively maps the electronic structure of V-based bi-layer kagome metals but also provides constructive experimental evidence for the unique origin of CDW in this system. We investigated the origins of charge density wave (CDW) mechanisms in the bi-layered kagome metal ScV6Sn6 by comparing its electronic structure with that of its isostructural counterpart YV6Sn6, which does not exhibit a CDW state. Our ARPES measurements reveal that the Van Hove singularity (VHS) nesting mechanism may not be valid in the CDW state. In ScV6Sn6, the electronic structure shows a CDW-induced band gap accompanied by anomalous band dispersion near the M point of the Brillouin zone. These findings provide experimental evidence for the origin of CDW in vanadium-based kagome metals.
电荷密度波(CDW)作为钒基卡戈米超导体 AV3Sb5(A = K、Rb、Cs)的标志,引起了广泛关注。然而,关于 CDW 的基本机制的基本争议一直存在。最近,据报道在 94 K 以下表现出长程电荷秩序的钒基双层卡戈美金属 ScV6Sn6 成为进一步澄清这一核心问题的有希望的候选者。在这里,我们利用微聚焦角分辨光发射光谱(μ-ARPES)和第一原理计算,通过比较 ScV6Sn6 与缺乏 CDW 基态的同结构对应物 YV6Sn6,系统地研究了钒基双层卡戈米金属中独特的 CDW 秩。结合 ARPES 数据和相应的联合状态密度 (DOS),我们认为 VHS 嵌套机制在这些材料中可能是无效的。此外,在 ScV6Sn6 中,我们还发现了由 CDW 引发的能带折叠所产生的多个杂化能隙,以及异常的能带色散,这意味着 CDW 秩的形成背后可能存在电子-声子耦合驱动机制。我们的发现不仅全面地描绘了 V 基双层卡戈米金属的电子结构,而且还为该体系中电荷波导的独特起源提供了建设性的实验证据。我们通过比较双层可可美金属 ScV6Sn6 与不显示 CDW 状态的同结构对应物 YV6Sn6 的电子结构,研究了电荷密度波(CDW)机制在双层可可美金属 ScV6Sn6 中的起源。我们的 ARPES 测量结果表明,范霍夫奇点(VHS)嵌套机制在 CDW 状态下可能无效。在 ScV6Sn6 中,电子结构显示出一种由 CDW 引发的带隙,并伴随着布里渊区 M 点附近的异常带色散。这些发现为钒基卡戈米金属中 CDW 的起源提供了实验证据。

These findings provide experimental evidence for the origin of CDW in vanadium-based kagome metals.","PeriodicalId":19382,"journal":{"name":"Npg Asia Materials","volume":"16 1","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":8.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.nature.com/articles/s41427-024-00567-3.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143187399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In practical engineering, noise and impact hazards are pervasive, indicating the pressing demand for materials that can absorb both sound and stress wave energy simultaneously. However, the rational design of such multifunctional materials remains a challenge. Herein, inspired by cuttlebone, we present bioinspired architected metamaterials with unprecedented sound-absorbing and mechanical properties engineered via a weakly-coupled design. The acoustic elements feature heterogeneous multilayered resonators, whereas the mechanical responses are based on asymmetric cambered cell walls. These metamaterials experimentally demonstrated an average absorption coefficient of 0.80 from 1.0 to 6.0 kHz, with 77% of the data points exceeding the desired 0.75 threshold, all with a compact 21 mm thickness. An absorptance-thickness map is devised for assessing the sound-absorption efficiency. The high-fidelity microstructure-based model reveals the air friction damping mechanism, with broadband behavior attributed to multimodal hybrid resonance. Empowered by the cambered design of cell walls, metamaterials shift catastrophic failure toward a progressive deformation mode characterized by stable stress plateaus and ultrahigh specific energy absorption of 50.7 J/g—a 558.4% increase over the straight-wall design. After the deformation mechanisms are elucidated, a comprehensive research framework for burgeoning acousto-mechanical metamaterials is proposed. Overall, our study broadens the horizon for multifunctional material design. Noise and impact hazards are pervasive in engineering, necessitating materials capable of absorbing both sound and stress wave energy. Here, we present bioinspired metamaterials with exceptional sound-absorbing and mechanical properties using a weakly-coupled design strategy. These materials incorporate multi-layered resonators for superior acoustic performance and cambered cell walls for enhanced structural strength. They achieve an average absorption coefficient of 0.80 across the 1.0 to 6.0 kHz range, all within a sleek 21 mm thickness. Furthermore, the design transitions failure modes from catastrophic to progressive, resulting in a remarkable 558.4% increase in energy absorption compared to conventional designs.
在实际工程中,噪音和撞击危害无处不在,这表明人们迫切需要能够同时吸收声波和应力波能量的材料。然而,如何合理设计这种多功能材料仍是一项挑战。在此,我们受海螵蛸的启发,通过弱耦合设计,提出了具有前所未有的吸音和机械特性的生物启发结构超材料。声学元件采用异质多层谐振器,而机械响应则基于不对称的凸面细胞壁。实验证明,这些超材料在 1.0 至 6.0 千赫范围内的平均吸声系数为 0.80,77% 的数据点超过了所需的 0.75 临界值,而且厚度仅为 21 毫米。为评估吸声效率,设计了吸声厚度图。基于微结构的高保真模型揭示了空气摩擦阻尼机制,宽带行为归因于多模态混合共振。在细胞壁外凸设计的推动下,超材料将灾难性失效转变为渐进变形模式,其特点是稳定的应力高原和 50.7 J/g 的超高比能量吸收,比直壁式设计提高了 558.4%。在阐明变形机制之后,我们提出了一个针对新兴声学-机械超材料的综合研究框架。总之,我们的研究拓宽了多功能材料设计的视野。
