Truth After cinema: The explosion of facts in the documentary films of Jia Zhangke
Get PDFThis is the author's accepted manuscript. The final published article is available from the link below. Copyright @ 2013 Intellect Books.This article identifies and elaborates on two models of resistance evident in JiaZhangke’s film corpus. The deployment of different cinematic strategies produces an experimental calling into question of the value of truth and of truth as value. In the films here analysed Jia moves from resistance through organic observation to a model of resistance structured around a series of fabulations. If the first regime addresses the truth of ideology, then the target of the second is the ideology of truth. It is in this passage that Jia enters political cinema, collapsing the distinction between factual and fictional and opening up a space that belongs to no collectivity
Highly Active and Durable FeNiCo Oxyhydroxide Oxygen Evolution Reaction Electrocatalysts Derived from Fluoride Precursors
Get PDFDeveloping highly active and durable electro-catalysts, consisting of earth-abundant elements, for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is pivotal for large-scale water splitting for hydrogen production. Herein, we report that the commercially available FeNiCo alloy can be converted to a highly active electrocatalyst for OER by galvanostatic anodizing in a fluoride-containing ethylene glycol electrolyte. Anodizing of the alloy develops a porous film consisting of the (FeNiCo)F-2 phase, which is readily converted to a highly active porous oxyhydroxide during anodic polarization in a KOH electrolyte. The anodized alloy exhibits high activity and high durability for OER with an overpotential as low as 0.26 V at a current density of 10 mA cm(-2). The present study demonstrates that a simple and cost-effective anodizing process can be used to form a highly active OER electrode from a low-cost, practical, iron-based alloy. In addition, we found that fluorides containing Fe, Ni, and Co are excellent precursors for the formation of oxyhydroxides exhibiting high OER activity and durability
Mapping of mechanical, thermomechanical and wire-bond strain fields in packaged Si integrated circuits using synchrotron white beam x-ray topography
Get PDFThermal processing steps used during the production of packaged integrated circuits can lead to severe thermomechanical stresses. In addition, the process of bonding wires to contact pads can also lead to strain field generation. A feasibility study using the application of white beam synchrotron x-ray topography to packaged erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) Si integrated circuits (ICs) has been undertaken in order to produce maps of the strain fields induced by such processing steps. This technique provides depth-resolved mapping with spatial resolutions currently in the region of 5-10 μm throughout the entire mapping volume. Furthermore, the use of different experimental geometries allows the user to nondestructively probe the strain fields present at the wafer surface right through to the back side

In Situ Activation of Anodized Ni-Fe Alloys for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction in Alkaline Media
Get PDFA simple anodizing technique has been employed to develop highly active electrocatalysts that can be applied to the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline media. NiFe alloys were electrodeposited and anodized to form a porous electrocatalytic layer. This approach produces highly active electrodes without the need for noble metals, binders, or conductive carbon additives. The as-anodized electrode initially exhibits poor OER activity in 1.0 mol dm(-3) KOH; however, the effects of potential cycling improve the OER activity to an extent that an overpotential as low as 0.26 V at 10 mA cm(-2) is observed for the anodized Ni-11.8 at. % Fe electrode. Although significant in situ activation is achieved with anodized NiFe electrodes, this activation is less significant for as-deposited NiFe or anodized Ni electrodes. Furthermore, OER activity is observed to be composition-dependent, with the Ni-11.8 at. % Fe electrode exhibiting the greatest activity. A porous fluoride-rich, Fe-doped Ni oxyfluoride layer produced by anodizing is converted via potential cycling to an amorphous or poorly crystalline Fe-doped Ni(OH)(2) layer with a nanoflake-like morphology. The high activity is maintained even after the removal of most of the fluoride. Thus, the F-rich, Fe-doped Ni oxyfluoride is a promising precursor to develop a highly active OER electrode
