Organosilicon polymers facilitate the shaping process and different silicon-based ceramics with controllable components can be fabricated by modifying organosilicon polymers or adding fillers. It is worth noting that silicate ceramics can also be fabricated from organosilicon polymers by the introduction of active fillers, which could react with the produced silica during pyrolysis. The organosilicon polymer-derived ceramics show many unique properties, which have attracted many attentions in various fields. This review summarizes the typical organosilicon polymers and the processing of organosilicon polymers to fabricate silicon-based ceramics, especially highlights the three-dimensional(3 D) printing technique for shaping the organosilicon polymerderived ceramics, which makes the possibility to fabricate silicon-based ceramics with complex structure. More importantly, the recent studies on fabricating typical non-oxide and silicate ceramics derived from organosilicon polymers and their biomedical applications are highlighted.展开更多

Never theless, the chemical prelithiation agent is difficult to dope active Li^(+) in silicon-based anodes because of their low working voltage and sluggish Li^(+) diffusion rate. By selecting the lithium–arene complex reagent with 4-methylbiphenyl as an anion ligand and 2-methyltetrahydrofuran as a solvent, the as-prepared micro-sized Si O/C anode can achieve an ICE of nearly 100%. Interestingly, the best prelithium efficiency does not correspond to the lowest redox half-potential(E_(1/2)), and the prelithiation efficiency is determined by the specific influencing factors(E_(1/2), Li^(+) concentration, desolvation energy, and ion diffusion path). In addition, molecular dynamics simulations demonstrate that the ideal prelithiation efficiency can be achieved by choosing appropriate anion ligand and solvent to regulate the solvation structure of Li^(+). Furthermore, the positive effect of prelithiation on cycle performance has been verified by using an in-situ electrochemical dilatometry and solid electrolyte interphase film characterizations.展开更多

The(de)multiplexer is composed of three tapered directional couplers for both mode multiplexing and demultiplexing processes. In the experiment, the average crosstalk for four channels is measured to be less than-18 dB over a wide wavelength range(70 nm) from 1950 to 2020 nm, and the insertion losses are also assessed. Moreover, we further demonstrate stable 5 Gbit/s direct modulation data transmission through the fabricated silicon photonic devices with nonreturn-to-zero on–off keying signals. The experimental results show clear eye diagrams, and the penalties at a bit error rate of 3.8 × 10-3 are all less than 2.5 dB after on-chip data transmission. The obtained results indicate that the presented silicon four-mode division multiplexer in the mid-infrared wavelength band might be a promising candidate facilitating chip-scale high-speed optical interconnects.展开更多

With prote...Valley, the intrinsic feature of silicon, is an inescapable subject in silicon-based quantum computing. At the spin–valley hotspot, both Rabi frequency and state relaxation rate are significantly enhanced. With protection against charge noise, the valley degree of freedom is also conceived to encode a qubit to realize noise-resistant quantum computing.Here, based on the spin qubit composed of one or three electrons, we characterize the intrinsic properties of valley in an isotopically enriched silicon quantum dot(QD) device. For one-electron qubit, we measure two electric-dipole spin resonance(EDSR) signals which are attributed to partial occupation of two valley states. The resonance frequencies of two EDSR signals have opposite electric field dependences. Moreover, we characterize the electric field dependence of the upper valley state based on three-electron qubit experiments. The difference of electric field dependences of the two valleys is 52.02 MHz/V, which is beneficial for tuning qubit frequency to meet different experimental requirements. As an extension of electrical control spin qubits, the opposite electric field dependence is crucial for qubit addressability,individual single-qubit control and two-qubit gate approaches in scalable quantum computing.展开更多
