AI Article Synopsis

  • The study introduces an efficient method using electrospinning and multi-dimensional fillers to create composite materials with improved thermal conductivity.
  • A unique bridge-type structure is formed by combining 1D boron nitride nanofibers and 2D boron nitride nanosheets, enhancing the thermal network in the fibers.
  • This approach is applicable for developing other types of nanofiller/polymer composite fiber films beyond the boron nitride example studied.

Article Abstract

We propose an efficient strategy based on the electrospinning technique combined with multi-dimensional fillers to fabricate composites with well-established thermal pathways. A bridge-type structure is constructed in the composite fibers by integrating 1D boron nitride nanofibers and 2D boron nitride nanosheets, which can accelerate the formation of a valid thermal network, thereby the BNNS/BNNF/polyacrylonitrile (bsf) composites perform better than the BNNS/polyacrylonitrile (bs) composites. This strategy can be extended to the preparation of other electrospun 1D/2D nanofiller/polymer composite fiber films.

Fluorescence spectra of single terrylene molecules adsorbed on hexagonal boron nitride flakes were recorded at cryogenic temperatures. The pure electronic transitions of terrylene molecules are spread over a broad energy scale from 570 to 610 nm. Surprisingly, peaks in the vibrationally resolved fluorescence spectrum show intensity variations of ≤20-fold between molecules.

Chirality, a basic property of symmetry breaking, is crucial for fields such as biology and physics. Recent advances in the study of chiral systems have stimulated interest in the discovery of symmetry-breaking states that enable exotic phenomena such as spontaneous gyrotropic order and superconductivity. Here we examine the interaction between light chirality and electron spins in indium selenide and study the effect of magnetic field on emerging tunnelling photocurrents at the Van Hove singularity.

The practical application of polyethylene glycol (PEG) phase change materials (PCMs) necessitates exceptional shape stability, rapid thermal responsiveness, and a substantial thermal storage capacity. The present study focuses on the fabrication of a highly robust cellulose nanofibril (CNF) based aerogel with an ordered structure, serving as a three-dimensional (3D) scaffold for PEG to effectively prevent any potential leakage. Additionally, hydroxyl and amino functional groups are introduced to functionalize boron nitride nanosheets (BNNS-g), which are incorporated into the aerogel to enhance its thermal conductivity.
