Doping film with In impurity leads to quenching of the doublet band, while further thermal treatment causes activation of the intrinsic band, the half-width and the blue shift of the red edge of which correlates with the maximum value of anomalously high photovoltage generated by the film.展开更多

These parameters can be exactly adjusted on a computer by sending commends to a special control device. Then, a simple rotor system with VPSFD is investigated. The experimental results show that VPSFD can attenuate the rotor system resonance peak due to unbalance.展开更多

In this work, based on unique chemical vapor depositions （CVD）-grown three-dimensional （3D） graphene films that mimic the morphology of fingertip skin, we fabricated flexible pressure sensing membranes, which simultaneously showed a high sensitivity of 110 （kPa）-1 for 0-0.2 kPa and wide workable pressure range （up to 75 kPa）.
