Effect of Li2CO3 addition on the structural,optical, ferroelectric,and electric-field-induced strain of lead-free BNKT-based ceramics

In this work, we reported the effect of Li₂CO₃ addition on the structural, optical, ferroelectric properties and electric-field-induced strain of Bi_0.5(Na,K)_0.5TiO₃ (BNKT) solid solution with CaZrO₃ ceramics. Both rhombohedral and tetragonal structures were distorted after adding Lithium (Li). The band gap values decreased from 2.91 to 2.69 eV for 5 mol% Li-addition. The maximum polarization and remanent polarization decreased from 49.66 μC/cm² to 27.11 μC/cm² and from 22.93 μC/cm² to 5.35 μC/cm² for un-doped and 5 mol% Li- addition BNKT ceramics, respectively. The maximum S_max/E_max value was 567 pm/V at 2 mol% Li₂CO₃ access. We expected this work will help to understand the role of A-site dopant in lead-free ferroelectric BNKT materials.     

EPR,ENDOR and optical spectroscopy of Yb3+ ion in KZnF3 single crystals

The paramagnetic center of tetragonal symmetry formed by the Yb³⁺ ion in the KZnF₃ crystal has been studied using methods of EPR, ENDOR and optical spectroscopy. The location of the impurity ion and the structural model of the complex differing from the model of the Yb³⁺ center in KMgF₃ have been established. The empirical scheme of the energy levels of the Yb³⁺ ion has been found. The parameters of its interaction with the crystal electrostatic field and the hyperfine interaction with ligands of the nearest environment have been determined. The parameters of the crystal field were used for the analysis of the distortions of the crystal lattice in the vicinity of Yb³⁺. The parameters of the transferred hyperfine interaction have been calculated for the distances between Yb³⁺ and F⁻ ions of the nearest environment obtained taking into account the found distortions. They are in good agreement with the experimental values.     

Phase unwrapping by accumulation of residual maps

We present a path independent (global) algorithm for phase unwrapping based on the minimisation of a robust cost function. The algorithm incorporates an outlier rejection mechanism making it robust to large inconsistencies and discontinuities. The proposal consists on an iterative incremental scheme that unwraps a sub-estimation of the residual phase at each iteration. The sub-estimation degree is controlled by an algorithm׳s parameter. We present an efficiently computational multigrid implementation based on a nested strategy: the process is iterated by using multiple resolutions. The proposal׳s performance is demonstrated by experiments with synthetic and real data, and successfully compared with algorithms of the state of the art.     

Optical extensometer and elimination of the effect of out-of-plane motions

A novel optical extensometer is developed to estimate the local uniform strain on planar surface accurately. The proposed system consists of a shared large format lens and two image sensors, which acquire pairs of images of two isolated small regions on the object surface simultaneously. Digital image correlation (DIC) algorithm is applied to determine the relative displacement between gauge points designated on recorded pairs of images. Then local strain can be extracted after dividing the relative displacement by the scale distance. Moreover, a special experimental setup called “correction sheet” is used to eliminate the virtual strain induced by out-of-plane motions. Uni-axial tensile experiments are performed to validate the reliability and resolution of the optical extensometer, and the measurement results demonstrate that the resolution of the optical extensometer achieves 2–3 με.     

基于U型弯曲光纤模间干涉的折射率传感

研究了去包层U型弯曲光纤的折射率传感特性.首先根据模间干涉理论,分析了U型光纤传感器的传感原理,指出干涉谱损耗峰波长与环境折射率和弯曲半径有关.利用单模光纤(SM-28)实验制作不同曲率半径的U型光纤传感器,把传感器的U型部分浸入不同折射率的液体中,研究其折射率传感特性.当U型光纤曲率半径为2.5~5.0mm时,传输光谱中均能观察到明显的模间干涉现象;当液体折射率从1.30RIU变到1.43RIU时,光谱损耗峰波长发生红移,且弯曲半径越大,折射率传感灵敏度越高;在曲率半径为5mm时灵敏度为207nm/RIU(折射率1.30~1.40RIU)和1 220nm/RIU(折射率1.40~1.42RIU).干涉峰的波形参量(半高宽、对比度)决定于包层模和纤芯导模之间的比例,当曲率半径为4mm时,损耗峰半高宽最小达3.2nm.综合半高宽和灵敏度两个参量,得出曲率半径4.5mm的U型光纤传感器品质因素最高,分别为43.1RIU-1(折射率1.30~1.40RIU)和191.2RIU-1(折射率1.40~1.42RIU),可直接由SM-28单模光纤制成,且制作工艺简单、成本低、机械强度高不需要任何特殊处理,具有很好的应用前景.

针对现有的衍射光学元件设计方法只适用于小角度衍射的情况,本文提出了一种基于瑞利-索末菲衍射积分的设计方法,可以用来设计具有大衍射角的衍射光学元件。先对目标光场进行坐标变换和强度调整,再利用改进的Gerchberg-Saxton算法优化得到衍射光学元件的相位分布。分别采用本文方法和原有的基于夫琅禾费衍射积分的方法设计衍射光学元件实现线条结构光和不同角度方框图形的光场重构,结果表明:原有的设计方法只适用于衍射角全角小于25°的情况,当衍射角大于25°时,重构光场会出现显著的枕形畸变和不均匀的强度分布。而本文方法在小角度和大角度衍射下都能重构出准确的衍射角和较为均匀的强度分布.     

Glow Discharge Characteristics of Hollow Needle-Plate Electrode in Atmospheric Pressure ArgonSCIEI北大核心CSCD

Atmosphere pressure uniform plasma has the broad application prospect in the industrial field. Using hollow needle cathode - plate anode device excited by direct-current voltage, a uniform and stable glow discharge is generated at atmospheric pressure in ambient air with argon used as working gas. The influence of the experimental parameters (including gas flow rate and the gas gap width) on discharge has been investigated by optical method. It can be found that a glow-discharge plasma column can bridge the two electrodes. The plasma column is uniform, and no filaments can be discerned. Near the plate electrode, the diameter of the plasma column is largest of all positions. The maximal diameter of the plasma column increases with increasing the discharge current or the gas flow rate. Through electrical method, the voltage-current characteristic has been investigated. It has been found that the discharge voltage decreases with increasing the current which is similar with the characteristic of glow discharge in low pressure. It increases with increasing the gas gap width or the gas flow rate. By analyzing the optical emission spectrum scanning from 330 to 450 nm emitted from the direct-current glow discharge, the molecular vibrational temperature and the intensity ratio of spectral lines I-391.4/I-337.1 have been investigated as functions of the gas flow rate and gas gap width. Results indicate that both the vibrational temperature and the intensity ratio of spectral lines I-391.4/I-337.1 decrease with increasing the gas flow rate or the gas gap width. In addition, the molecular vibrational temperature and the intensity ratio of spectral lines I-391.4/I-337.1 have been investigated in spatial resolution along the direction of gas flow(plasma column axial), and give a qualitative analysis as well. It is found that the vibrational temperature and the average electron energy increase with increasing the distance from the hollow needle cathode. These results are important to the industrial applications of glow discharge.
