    摘要: The present invention relates to a process for the synthesis of a composite material comprising steps of: (a) reacting gaseous magnesium (Mg) and silica (SiO2) in an inert atmosphere; (b) washing the product obtained in step (a) in an acidic medium; and (c) reacting further gaseous magnesium (Mg) with the silica (SiO2) and silicon (Si) product obtained in step (b). The process of the invention allows Mg2Si/MgO nanocomposites to be prepared without too many separate steps, and wherein the MgO phase is homogeneously dispersed within the Mg2Si matrix. The nanocomposites obtained may for example find practical application as thermoelectric materials in thermoelectric generators.

    摘要: A device for coating semiconductor/semiconductor precursor particles on a flexible substrate and a preparation method of a semiconducting thin film, wherein the device includes: a container for a first and second solvent substantially immiscible; injection means for injecting a predetermined dispersion volume of at least one layered semiconductor particle material or its precursor(s), occurring at a liquid-liquid interface formed within the container and between the first and second solvent, and creating a particle film at the liquid-liquid interface; a first support means; substrate extracting means; substrate supply means; compression means, reducing a distance between particles and push the film onto the substrate, wherein the compression means includes several pushing means mounted on a drive device, wherein at least two of the several pushing means are at least partially submerged in the second solvent during drive device rotation, and moved through the second solvent toward the first support means.
