  • Patent number: 11969716
    Abstract: This application discloses a silicon carbide (SiC)-loaded graphene photocatalyst for hydrogen production under visible light irradiation and a preparation method thereof. Pure SiC and pure black carbon are respectively prepared and mixed to obtain a mixture with a resistance less than 100?. Then the mixture was vacuumized and processed with a current pulse with an increasing voltage until a breakdown occurs, and subjected to ultrasonic stirring, centrifugal washing and vacuum drying in turn to obtain the SiC-loaded graphene photocatalyst. By means of the current pulse, a heterojunction is formed between SiC and graphene to improve the catalytic activity of the photocatalyst; and the photocatalytic hydrogen production rate of SiC nanoparticles can be enhanced after loaded on the graphene.

  • Patent number: 11969771
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a film vibration device, including: photoetching a surface of a silicon wafer to form a circular-hole array; etching an aluminum layer on the silicon wafer; etching the silicon wafer to form a through-hole array to obtain a porous silicon wafer; attaching a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) sheet to a side of the porous silicon wafer; ablating the PET sheet to obtain a porous PET film; attaching a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film to a lower side of the porous silicon wafer; performing vacuumization above the porous silicon wafer, while heating the PVDF film below the porous silicon wafer to create dome micro-structures on the PVDF film; and laminating the porous PET film on each of two sides of the PVDF film to obtain the film vibration device. This application also provides a cleaning device having the film vibration device.
