ANALYSIS OF SURFACE DEFECTS OF ALUMINUM AND ITS ALLOYS WITH A SCANNING KELVIN PROBE

Приборы и методы измерений, 2017
Currently, the use of probe electrometry in non-destructive testing is constrained by the complexity of measurement results interpretation. An output signal of electrometric probe depends on a number of physical and chemical parameters of surface ...

Reaction‐Time pH Stabilization by Poly(acrylic acid) with Ethanol‐Mediated Growth Control for Efficient Hydrothermal Sb2(S,Se)3 Solar Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Poly(acrylic acid) acts as a reaction‐time pH buffer during hydrothermal Sb2(S,Se)3 growth through its COOH/COO‐ equilibrium. When combined with ethanol‐regulated growth, this buffering strategy reduces Sb‐O related surface disorder, improves local electronic uniformity and carrier collection, and increases the champion solar‐cell efficiency to 10.25%,

Simultaneous measurement of corrosion potential and hydrogen penetration using double-head scanning Kelvin probe

Electrochemistry Communications
High-strength steels, such as high-strength bolts or steel plates are considerably sensitive to hydrogen embrittlement. Serious safety problems in steel structures are possible, because they are exposed to atmospheric condition containing chloride ions ...

Zn-Co-CeO₂ vs. Zn-Co Coatings: Effect of CeO₂ Sol in the Enhancement of the Corrosion Performance of Electrodeposited Composite Coatings

Metals, 2021
Electrodeposition and characterization of novel ceria-doped Zn-Co composite coatings was the main goal of this research. Electrodeposited composite coatings were compared to pure Zn-Co coatings obtained under the same conditions.

Multidimensional‐Encoded High‐Fidelity Spectrometers With a Floating‐Base Bipolar Junction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A floating‐base bipolar junction photodetector enables multidimensional spectral encoding through synergistic gate‐ and drain‐bias modulation of interfacial barrier matching. The resulting complementary spectral responses form a diverse, weakly correlated response matrix, enabling robust and high‐fidelity spectral reconstruction even at sub‐nanoampere ...

Heteroengineering‐Induced Electronic Reconstruction for Ammonium‐Ion Energy Storage

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An integrated electronic reconstruction behavior is induced by local heteroengineering on VO2(B) electrode material surface of NH4+ supercapacitor, rationally modulating the electronic structure, enabling enhanced intrinsic conductivity and extra driving force for NH4+ intercalation reaction.

Scanning Kelvin Probe for Detection in Steel of Locations Enriched by Hydrogen and Prone to Cracking

Corrosion and Materials Degradation, 2023
Hydrogen, due to corrosion processes, can degrade high strength steels (HSS) through embrittlement and stress corrosion cracking mechanisms. Scanning Kelvin probe (SKP) mapping of surface potential was applied, to visualize the locations with an ...
