We report that efficient high dielectric polymer/ceramic composite materials can be optically printed into three-dimensional (3D) capacitor by the projection based stereolithography (SLA) method. Surface decoration of Ag on Pb(Zr,Ti)O 3 (PZT@Ag) particles were used as filler to enhance the dielectric permittivity. Polymer nanocomposites were fabricated by incorporating PZT@Ag particles into the photocurable polymer solutions, followed by exposure to the digitally controlled optical masks to generate 3D structures. The dielectric permittivity of Flex/PZT@Ag composite reaches as high as 120 at 100Hz with 18vol% filler, which is about 30 times higher than that of pure Flex. Furthermore, the dielectric loss is as low as 0.028 at 100Hz. The results are in good agreement with the effective medium theory (EMT) model. The calculated specific capacitance of our 3D printed capacitor is about 63 F g-1 at the current density of 0.5 A g-1. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) curves indicate 3d printed capacitors possess low resistance and ideal capacitive properties. These results not only provide a tool to fabricate capacitor with complex
Lead halide perovskites have exhibited excellent performance in solar cells, LEDs and detectors. Thermal properties of perovskites, such as heat capacity and thermal conductivity, have rarely been studied and corresponding devices have barely been explored. Considering the high absorption coefficient (104~105 cm−1), low specific heat capacity (296–326 J kg−1 K−1) and small thermal diffusion coefficient (0.145 mm2 s−1), herein we showcase the successful use of perovskite in optoacoustic transducers. The theoretically calculated phonon spectrum shows that the overlap of optical phonons and acoustic phonons leads to the up-conversion of acoustic phonons, and thus results in experimentally measured low thermal diffusion coefficient. The assembled device of PDMS/MAPbI3/PDMS simultaneously achieves broad bandwidths (−6 dB bandwidth: 40.8 MHz; central frequency: 29.2 MHz), and high conversion efficiency (2.97 × 10−2), while all these parameters are the record values for optoacoustic transducers. We also fabricate miniatured devices by assembling perovskite film onto fibers, and clearly resolve the fine structure of fisheyes, which demonstrates the strong competitiveness of perovskite based optoacoustic transducers for ultrasound imaging.
