Description

Vanadium dioxide single crystal driver and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of advanced micro-nano drivers, relates to a single crystal driver, and particularly relates to a vanadium dioxide single crystal driver and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Researchers have found that M1 phase vanadium dioxide can be converted to R phase vanadium dioxide when heated to 68 ℃ and produce a compressive strain of about 1% in the [001] direction of the R phase, a characteristic that allows vanadium dioxide to be used to make thermally driven devices. In recent years, scholars at home and abroad find that the vanadium dioxide thermal excitation micro-driver can simultaneously meet the application requirements of high frequency, high amplitude and high output power. Among them, the driver based on the vanadium dioxide single crystal micro nanowire (grown in the [001] direction of the R phase) exhibited the most excellent driving ability.
In 2010, Wu military bridge professor of Larrenburli national laboratory in USA combines vanadium dioxide single crystal nanowire and chromium metal into a double crystal driver, which can produce the output of 2.5 × 104m-1Curvature change of (2) and 7J/cm3Theoretical work density (Journal of Applied Physics 108,083538 (2010)). In 2013, the problem group explores the performance limit of a double-crystal micro-driver of vanadium dioxide nanowires and chromium, and finds that the device can also achieve the working rate of kilohertz level, and the efficiency of converting thermal energy into mechanical energy can reach 0.85%. Meanwhile, the work also finds that the bimorph interface stress when the driver bends can introduce the generation of metastable M2 phase vanadium dioxide, and the strain can be up to 2 percent due to the transformation of M2 phase to R phase. Thus, the double layer deviceThe element can produce larger amplitude and higher energy conversion efficiency (3.4%) (Wang K, Cheng C, Cardona E, et al. Performance limits of micro-actuation with a vanadium dioxide as a solid engine [ J ]]ACS nano,2013,7(3): 2266-. In 2019, the group of inventors developed a method for preparing a single-crystal Vanadium Dioxide nanowire driver, by doping tungsten and spatially asymmetric distribution of reaction conditions, a lateral oxygen concentration gradient and a lateral asymmetric phase change are formed in the prepared single-crystal nanowire to realize a bidirectional self-bending behavior of a single Vanadium Dioxide nanowire, the driving performance of the single-crystal Vanadium Dioxide nanowire driver is equivalent to that of a twin-crystal Vanadium Dioxide nanowire driver, and the single-crystal Vanadium Dioxide nanowire driver exhibits superior cycle stability (Shi R, Cai X, Wang W, et al].Advanced Functional Materials,2019,29(20):1900527)。
However, the driving capability of the nanowire/metal bimorph driver is directly affected by the thickness ratio of the double layers and the interface contact condition, so that there are objective problems such as poor stability and poor corrosion resistance caused by coating peeling. While the single crystal drivers developed heretofore overcome the problems in the twin crystal drivers, they have not been able to utilize the M2-R phase change to achieve the theoretically optimal driving performance. The generation of the M2 phase in the twin crystal system cannot be reasonably controlled and utilized, so that how to controllably apply the M2 phase to the vanadium dioxide single crystal driver is still a key problem. In addition, a transition phase T phase exists between the M1 phase and the M2 phase, researchers find that linear strain of up to 0.7% can be generated by the transformation from the T phase to the M2 phase, and the energy required by the transformation is far lower than that required by the transformation from the M1 phase or the M2 phase to the R phase, so whether the T phase can be introduced into a driver to reduce the energy loss in the driving process becomes an important consideration in the design and manufacturing process of the driving device.
Therefore, how to provide a vanadium dioxide single crystal driver and a preparation method and application thereof can be seen, the M2 phase and the T phase are controllably applied to the vanadium dioxide single crystal driver, the M2-R phase transition and the T-M2 phase transition are fully utilized to realize the theoretical optimal driving performance, the energy loss in the driving process is reduced, the stability and the corrosion resistance of the driver are improved, and the problem which needs to be solved urgently by technical personnel in the field at present is solved.

Example 4
The embodiment provides a vanadium dioxide single crystal driver and a preparation method thereof, wherein the preparation method is implemented by changing the step (1) into: mixing 2.5mg of vanadium pentoxide powder and 2.5mg of silicon dioxide powder in a quartz boat according to the mass ratio of 1:1 to obtain vanadium source powder; and tungsten dioxide powder accounting for 30 percent of the total weight of the vanadium source powder is mixed into the vanadium source powder; the rest of the conditions are the same as those in example 1, and thus are not described herein.
The vanadium dioxide single crystal driver obtained in the embodiment is an M2-R type single crystal driver, a part of samples show a large lateral oxygen concentration gradient, an asymmetric domain pattern of a side M2 phase and a side R phase is shown when the temperature is increased, the single crystal driver generates a large bidirectional bending behavior when the temperature is changed due to the fact that strain of 1.7% is generated when the M2 phase is converted to the R phase, and the process is reversible when the temperature is reduced.
Example 5
The embodiment provides a vanadium dioxide single crystal driver and a preparation method thereof, wherein the preparation method is implemented by changing the step (1) into: mixing 3mg of vanadium pentoxide powder and 2mg of silicon dioxide powder in a quartz boat according to the mass ratio of 1.5:1 to obtain vanadium source powder; and tungsten dioxide powder accounting for 50 percent of the total weight of the vanadium source powder is mixed into the vanadium source powder; the rest of the conditions are the same as those in example 1, and thus are not described herein.
The vanadium dioxide nanowires obtained in the embodiment are severely corroded, and cannot realize driving behavior (see fig. 5).
Comparative example 1
The preparation method is the same as that of embodiment 1 except that the vanadium source powder in the step (1) is changed into 5mg of vanadium pentoxide powder, and no silicon dioxide powder and tungsten dioxide powder are added, so that the details are not repeated herein.
The vanadium dioxide nanowires obtained by the comparative example are all M1 phase crystals, and do not have stable M2 phase and T phase, so that the driving behavior can not be realized.
It can be seen that the working principle of the two new single crystal drivers obtained in example 1 and example 2 is as follows (see fig. 6):
(1) for M2-R type single crystal drive: the side with less oxygen content is changed into the R phase first during the temperature rise, and the other side is changed into the M2 phase at the moment, and the M2 phase is longer than the R phase in the axial direction, so that the driver bends to the side occupied by the R phase;
(2) for T-M2 type single crystal drive: at the time of temperature rise, the side with the smaller oxygen content first changes to the M2 phase, and at this time, the other side becomes the T phase, and since the M2 phase is axially longer than the T phase, the actuator bends to the side occupied by the T phase.
In conclusion, the method of mixing silicon dioxide into vanadium pentoxide effectively adjusts the oxygen partial pressure of the reaction system, so that excessive oxygen permeates into the synthesized vanadium dioxide micro-nano wire, and the metastable M2 phase and T phase can stably exist at room temperature; in addition, the formation of the lateral oxygen concentration gradient of the vanadium dioxide micro-nanowire is realized through a liquid layer auxiliary growth mode of the vanadium pentoxide reduction reaction at low temperature and low pressure, and a T-M2 type single crystal driver with good driving capability is prepared; the energy required for the phase conversion of the T phase to the M2 phase is only 20% of that of the M1 phase to the R phase, and the driving amplitude can reach 70% of that of an M1-R type single crystal driver, so that the high-efficiency single crystal driver with low energy consumption can be used. The invention can selectively reduce the oxygen content in the vanadium dioxide system by adding the reductive tungsten dioxide dopant, further increase the oxygen concentration gradient, realize the coexistence of M2 phase and R phase, so as to realize the maximum bending driving behavior, and the prepared M2-R type single crystal driver reaches the performance limit of the vanadium dioxide driver in all aspects.
