Holey graphyne (HGY), a novel 2D single-crystalline carbon allotrope, was synthesized most recently by Castro-Stephens coupling reaction. The natural existing uniform periodic holes in the 2D carbon-carbon network demonstrate its tremendous potential application in the area of energy storage. Herein, we conducted density functional theory calculation to predict the hydrogen storage capacity of HGY sheet. Its found the Li-decorated single-layer HGY can serve as a promising candidate for hydrogen storage. Our numerical calculations demonstrate that Li atoms can bind strongly to the HGY sheet without the formation of Li clusters, and each Li atom can anchor four H2 molecules with the average adsorption energy about -0.22 eV/H2. The largest hydrogen storage capacity of the doped HGY sheet can arrive as high as 12.8 wt%, this value largely surpasses the target of the U. S. Department of Energy (9 wt%), showing the Li/HGY complex is an ideal hydrogen storage material at ambient conditions. In addition, we investigate the polarization mechanism of the storage media and and find that the polarization stemed from both the electric field induced by the ionic Li decorated on the HGY and the weak polarized hydrogen molecules dominated the H2 adsorption process.

From first-principles calculations, we predict that a single ethylene molecule can form a stable complex with two transition metals (TM) such as Ti. The resulting TM-ethylene complex then absorbs up to ten hydrogen molecules, reaching to gravimetric
storage capacity of 14 wt%. Dimerization, polymerizations and incorporation of the TM-ethylene complexes in nanoporous carbon materials have been also discussed. Our results are quite remarkable and open a new approach to high-capacity hydrogen storage materials discovery.
Hard disk drives (HDDs) are used as secondary storage in a number of digital electronic devices owing to low cost ($<$0.1$/GB at 2016 prices) and large data storage capacity (10TB with a 3.5 inch HDD). Due to the exponentially increasing amount of da
ta, there is a need to increase areal storage densities beyond$sim$1Tb/in$^2$. This requires the thickness of carbon overcoats (COCs) to be$<$2nm. Friction, wear, corrosion, and thermal stability are critical concerns$<$2nm, where most of the protective properties of current COCs are lost. This limits current technology and restricts COC integration with heat assisted magnetic recording technology (HAMR), since this also requires laser irradiation stability. Here we show that graphene-based overcoats can overcome all these limitations. 2-4 layers of graphene enable two-fold reduction in friction and provide better corrosion and wear than state-of-the-art COCs. A single graphene layer is enough to reduce corrosion$sim$2.5 times. We also show that graphene can withstand HAMR conditions. Thus, graphene-based overcoats can enable ultrahigh areal density HDDs$>$10Tb/in$^2$.
Here we report two-dimensional (2D) single-crystalline holey-graphyne (HGY) created an interfacial two-solvent system through a Castro-Stephens coupling reaction from 1,3,5-tribromo-2,4,6-triethynylbenzene. HGY is a new type of 2D carbon allotrope wh
ose structure is comprised of a pattern of six-vertex and eight-vertex rings. The carbon-carbon 2D network of HGY is alternately linked between benzene rings and sp (carbon-carbon triple bond) bonding. The ratio of the sp over sp2 bonding is 50%. It is confirmed that HGY is stable by DFT calculation. The vibrational, optic, and electric properties of HGY are investigated theoretically and experimentally. It is a p-type semiconductor that embraces a natural direct band gap (~ 1.0 eV) with high hole mobility and electron mobility at room temperature. This report is expected to help develop a new types of carbon-based semiconductor devices with high mobility.
Adding thermal conductivity enhancements to increase thermal power in solid-liquid phase-change thermal energy storage modules compromises volumetric energy density and often times reduces the mass and volume of active phase change material (PCM) by
well over half. In this study, a new concept of building thermal energy storage modules using high-conductivity, solid-solid, shape memory alloys is demonstrated to eliminate this trade-off and enable devices that have both high heat transfer rate and high thermal capacity. Nickel titanium, Ni50.28Ti49.36, was solution heat treated and characterized using differential scanning calorimetry and Xenon Flash to determine transformation temperature (78deg-C), latent heat (183 kJm-3), and thermal conductivity in the Austenite and Martensite phases (12.92/12.64 Wm-1K-1). Four parallel-plate thermal energy storage demonstrators were designed, fabricated, and tested in a thermofluidic test setup. These included a baseline sensible heating module (aluminum), a conventional solid-liquid PCM module (aluminum/1-octadecanol), an all-solid-solid PCM module (Ni50.28Ti49.36), and a composite solid-solid/solid-liquid PCM module (Ni50.28Ti49.36/1-octadecanol). By using high-conductivity solid-solid PCMs, and eliminating the need for encapsulants and conductivity enhancements, we are able to demonstrate a 1.73-3.38 times improvement in volumetric thermal capacity and a 2.03-3.21 times improvement in power density as compared to the conventional approaches. These experimental results are bolstered by analytical models to explain the observed heat transfer physics and reveal a 5.86 times improvement in thermal time constant. This work demonstrates the ability to build high-capacity and high-power thermal energy storage modules using multifunctional shape memory alloys and opens the door for leap ahead improvement in thermal energy storage performance.
The interaction of Love waves with square array of pillars deposited on a cavity defined in a 2D holey phononic crystal is numerically investigated using Finite Element Method. First, the existence of SH surface modes is demonstrated separately for p
hononic crystals that consist of square arrayed holes, or rectangular arrayed Ni pillars, respectively in, or on, a SiO2 film deposited on a ST-cut quartz substrate. The coupling between SH modes and torsional mode in pillars induces a transmission dip that occurs at a frequency located in the range of the band-gap of the holey phononic crystal. Second, a cavity is constructed by removing lines of holes in the holey phononic crystal and results in a transmission peak that matches the dip. The optimal geometrical parameters enable us to create a coupling of the cavity mode and the localized pillar mode by introducing lines of pillars into the cavity, which significantly improved the efficiency of the cavity without increasing the crystal size. The obtained results will pave the way to implement advanced designs of high-performance electroacoustic sensors based on coupling modes in phononic crystals.
