The rapid growth of the demand for carbon nanotubes(CNTs) has greatly promoted their large-scale synthesis and development. However,the continuous production of CNT fibers by floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition(FCCVD) requires a large amount of non-renewable carbon sources. Here, the continuous production of highly graphitized CNT yarns from biomass tannic acid(TA) is reported. The chelation of TA and catalyst promotes the rapid cracking of biomass into carbon source gas, and the pyrolysis cracking produces the reducing gas, which solves the problems of the continuous production of CNT yarns using biomass. Through simple twisting, the mechanical strength of CNT yarn can reach 886 ± 46 MPa, and the electrical conductivity and graphitization(IG/ID) can reach 2 × 10^(5)S m^(-1)and 6.3, respectively. This work presents a promising solution for the continuous preparation of CNT yarns based on green raw material.

Optoelectronic synaptic devices operating at high temperatures have application potential across many important fields, including the aerospace and defense industries. However, limited research exists on such devices. Herein, we fabricate4H-SiC-based high-temperature optoelectronic synaptic devices that are capable of achieving diverse synaptic functionalities at temperatures as high as 600 K. The synaptic functionalities are realized for these devices through carrier capture and release of the deep-level defects introduced via electronic irradiation. A 3 × 3 array of high-temperature optoelectronic synaptic devices enables the image memory functions. A neural network model constructed using this array addresses the issue of color quantization. The optoelectronic synaptic devices thus developed are capable of high-temperature applications.
