Effects of Nb substitution for Zr on the phases,microstructure and magnetic properties of Co80Zr18−xNbxB2 melt-spun ribbons

The phases, microstructure, and magnetic properties of Co₈₀Zr_18−xNb_xB₂ (x=1, 2, 3, and 4) melt-spun ribbons were investigated. The small substitution of Nb for Zr in the Co–Zr–B melt-spun ribbons resulted in the improvement of magnetic properties, especially the coercivity. The main effect of added Nb on the coercovity of Co–Zr–Nb–B melt-spun ribbons, originated from modification of the grain size of Co₁₁Zr₂ phase. The coercivity of the Co–Zr–Nb–B melt-spun ribbons depends on the annealing temperature. The optimal magnetic properties of H_c=5.1 kOe, and (BH)_max=3.4 MGOe were obtained in the Co₈₀Zr₁₅Nb₃B₂ melt-spun ribbons annealed at 600 °C for 3 min.     

Preparation and characterization of carbonyl iron/glass composite absorber as matched load for isolator

Composite absorbers made from 66 wt% carbonyl iron and 34 wt% low melting point glass powder were prepared by a pressureless sintering technique in a nitrogen atmosphere. Apparent porosity and bending strength of the as-prepared composites were investigated. The microstructure, heat resisting properties and electromagnetic properties were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis–differential scanning calorimetry and vector network analyzer. The results show that the carbonyl iron/glass composite absorbers were difficult to densify. As the sintering temperature and soaking time increased, the apparent porosity first decreased and then increased, whereas the bending strength showed the opposite change. The composite absorber sintered at 520 °C for 40 min achieved the minimum apparent porosity of 13.08% and the highest bending strength of 52 MPa. Compared to the carbonyl iron/silicone rubber absorber, the carbonyl iron/glass composite absorber exhibited better heat resisting properties, and the initial oxidation temperature was increased about 200 °C. The composite absorber with a thickness of 1.25 mm showed a good microwave absorbing property in 8–12 GHz.     

Launch velocity characteristics of non-uniform sand in aeolian saltation

A numerical model for the vertical profile of aeolian mass flux was established based on the launch velocity probability distribution of saltating sand particles. The mean launch velocity () was used as a primary variable in the simulation, from which the average saltation height and length could be further calculated. The results showed that the mean launch velocity, the average saltation height, and the average saltation length increased with increasing wind friction velocity (u∗), although the increases for the first two were not significant. On the other hand, the relative mean launch velocity () was found to decrease with increasing wind friction velocity. Other interesting results were obtained from the simulation: both and decreased with an increase in the sand grain size, which agreed with a previous report claiming that the launch velocity was limited by the inertia of bed grains. Furthermore, decreasing dependence of the average saltation height and length was also found with increasing sand grain size. Overall, the sand grain size was of significance to the determination of probability distribution of the launch velocity and thus the saltation characteristics.

The proposed sensor has great potential in diverse sensing applications due to its advantages,such as its compact size,low cost,and simple fabrication process.     

Pulse width compression and enhancement of peak power in a diode-pumped doubly Q-switched Nd:GdVO<Subscript>4</Subscript> 1.34 μm laser with AO and V<Superscript>3+</Superscript>:YAG saturable absorber

By using both acousto-optic (AO) modulator and V³⁺:YAG saturable absorber, a diode-pumped doubly Q-switched a-cut Nd:GdVO₄ laser at 1.34 μm is realized. The average output power and the pulse width for different AO repetition rate f have been measured. The experimental results show that the doubly Q-switched laser can compress the pulse width and improve the pulsed peak power in comparison to the singly Q-switched laser with AO or V³⁺:YAG saturable absorber. At the pump power 10.34 W and f = 10 kHz, the greatest pulse width compression ratio 72% and the highest peak power improvement 8.8 times have been obtained, respectively.     

The formation of different structures in the interaction between a single femtosecond laser pulse and a thin Au film

The interactions between femtosecond (fs) laser pulses and a thin Au film deposited on a silica glass substrate were systematically investigated based on experimental data. Different structures, including microholes, nanoholes, and nanobumps, are obtained when pulses with different energies are incident on the surface of a gold film. The experimental results are discussed according to specific experimental parameters. Two physical models were constructed in order to explain the experimental results. The formation of nanoholes in a silica substrate is attributed to etching by higher order harmonic generations (HHG) when the femtosecond laser pulse interacts with the generated plasma layer, while the formation of nanobumps on the surface of an Au film is attributed to the elastic and plastic characteristics of the metal film under laser pulse irradiation.
