- Graphene has exhibited massive potential as a macroscale solid lubricant, but its durability is limited due to the weak adhesion between graphene sheets and the substrate. Here, inspired by mussel adhesive protein (MAP), effective reinforcement of the graphene-substrate interaction to attain remarkable enhancement on the durability of the graphene film is presented. The mussel-inspired graphene (mGr) film exhibits a coefficient of friction stabilizing at 0.16 up to 490000 sliding cycles in the friction testing against the silicon nitride ball; in the identical sliding condition, comparatively, the graphene (Gr) film without MAP only lasts 4300 sliding cycles. The analysis of Raman and ATR-FTIR demonstrates that, on the one hand, the MAP film firmly adsorbs onto the substrate via forming metal-catechol coordination bonds with metal atoms; on the other hand, it establishes strong interactions with graphene sheets by hydrogen bonding as well as the pi-pi overlap. As an interlayer, MAP retains graphene sheets within the contact interface in the form of a compact tribo-layer, which results in an over 2 orders of magnitude enhancement of durability for the mGr film. This strategy of improving the graphene-substrate adhesion via MAP offers an avenue for the development of effective and reliable graphene-based solid lubricants for engineering applications.

Secure Communication Over Finite State Multiple-Access Wiretap Channel With Delayed Feedback
- 2018

- Recently, it has been shown that the time-varying multiple-access channel (MAC) with perfect channel state information (CSI) at the receiver and delayed feedback CSI at the transmitters can be modeled as the finite state MAC (FS-MAC) with delayed state feedback, where the time variation of the channel is characterized by the statistics of the underlying state process. To study the fundamental limit of the secure transmission over multi-user wireless communication systems, we re-visit the FS-MAC with delayed state feedback by considering an external eavesdropper, which we call the finite state multipleaccess wiretap channel (FS-MAC-WT) with delayed feedback. The main contribution of this paper is to show that taking full advantage of the delayed channel output feedback helps to increase the secrecy rate region of the FS-MAC-WT with delayed state feedback. Moreover, by a degraded Gaussian fading example, we show the effects of feedback delay and channel memory on the secrecy sum rate of the FS-MAC-WT with delayed feedback.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper presents a novel Phased Array Feed (PAF) element based on flat bend crossed dipole fed by 50-Ohm coaxial line. The PAF element is dual-polarized and made from all-metal to minimize Ohmic losses and simplify cryogenic integration. It is optimized for 4- 8 GHz band aiming to possible later integration in the SKA pathfinder PHAROS2. The proposed design can also be a good element candidate of PAF for the Five hundred meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST) and Qi Tai Telescope (QTT) as well as other large radio telescopes.

- This paper presents design scenarios of Octave-bandwidth Phase Array Feed (PAF) based on a novel wideband dual polarized tightly-fed Bowtie antenna element. The PAF is optimized for the 4 - 8GHz band aiming to possible later integration in the SKA pathfinder PHAROS2. The proposed design can be a good candidate of PAF for the Five hundred meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST) and Qi Tai Telescope (QTT) as well as other large radio telescopes.

- The efficient conversion of fuel's chemical energy into electricity in solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), one of the promising candidates to replace the current combustion process, requires highly active cell components for quick charge transfer and reaction kinetics in the current low-temperature range. Operation at low temperatures enables the deployment of nanostructured materials, while the nanostructured cell components with improved electric properties further assist the reduction of the temperature for given power output. One of the major issues of the single-phase nanoparticle is its aggregation properties under harsh fuel-cell condition, which could be overcome or alleviated by the advanced approaches. Nanocomposite approach not only addresses the instability and some intrinsic issues with the single-phase materials but also brings the interesting synergetic electric properties with multifunctionality. We summarize the research activities in a range of nanocomposite materials in SOFCs in finding the positive roles to improve the cell components (anode, electrolyte, and cathode) electrochemical performances and cell efficiency for green energy applications.
