A terahertz on-chip InP-based power combiner designed using coupled-grounded coplanar waveguide lines

This article presents the design and performance of a terahertz on-chip coupled-grounded coplanar waveguide (GCPW) power combiner using a 50 μm-thick InP process. The proposed topology uses two coupled-GCPW lines at the end of the input port to substitute two quarter-wavelength GCPW lines, which is different from the conventional Wilkinson power combiner and can availably minimize the coverage area. According to the results obtained, for the frequency range of 210-250 GHz, the insertion losses for each two-way combiner and four-way combiner were lower than 1.05 dB and 1.35 dB, respectively, and the in-band return losses were better than 11 dB. Moreover, the proposed on-chip GCPW-based combiners achieved a compromise in low-loss, broadband, and small-size, which can find wide applications in terahertz bands, such as power amplifiers and signal distribution networks.

考虑界面力学性能的组件及结构的协同优化

包含多个内嵌功能组件及支撑结构的多组件结构因其轻量化、多功能等优良特性被广泛应用于航空航天等领域.已有的多组件结构拓扑优化研究大多基于理想界面假设,忽略了材料连接界面可能发生的破坏. 本文针对包含多个内嵌式功能性组件的结构,考虑连接界面的力学性能, 对组件的形状、布局及支撑材料的拓扑进行协同优化,以实现多组件结构的优良承载性能. 首先,基于超椭圆模型对内嵌组件的形状及布局进行显式的参数化描述,并构造其水平集函数表达; 进而,结合组件及支撑材料的水平集拓扑描述、内聚力模型及扩展有限元方法(extended finite element method, XFEM), 在固定网格下对随优化迭代不断演化的结构拓扑及连接界面的力学性能进行准确描述;进一步, 建立水平集法框架下考虑界面力学性能的多组件结构拓扑优化列式,基于伴随变量法推导解析的灵敏度并采用梯度优化算法求解优化问题.本文采用该优化框架分别对内嵌组件的悬臂梁和MBB梁进行协同优化, 在优化过程中,发现组件的初始布局对最终设计有很大的影响, 并且可能导致不良结构.为了避免此情况, 本文提出了两个阶段的优化策略,即首先对组件布局和形状进行优化, 再进行结构和内嵌组件的协同优化.数值结果显示, 在优化结果中功能性组件及界面通常分布于结构受压应力作用的区域,且连接界面最优形状呈现为曲率较小的光滑曲线,该设计避免界面发生拉伸及剪切破坏, 有效提高了结构的承载力,同时也表明了本文所提出考虑连接界面力学性能拓扑优化方法的有效性.      

Observation of the current－voltage plateau-like structure of resonant tunnelling diode with prewells under different magnetic fields

We have grown resonant tunnelling diodes (RTDs) with different sized emitter prewells and without a prewell. The current－voltage (I－V) characteristics of them in different magnetic fields were investigated. Two important phenomena were observed. First, a high magnetic field can destroy the plateau-like structure in the I－V curves of the RTD. This phenomenon is ascribed to the fact that the high magnetic field will demolish the coupling between the energy level in the main quantum well and that in the emitter quantum well or in the prewell. Secondly, the existence and size of the prewell are also important factors influencing the plateau-like structure.     

Ba0.97Ce0.8Ho0.2O3-α陶瓷的离子导电性及其燃料电池性能

The perovskite-type-oxide solid solution Ba0.97Ce0.8Ho0.2O3-α was prepared by high temperature solidstate reaction and its single-phase character was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The ionic conduction of the sample was investigated using electrical methods at elevated temperatures, and the performance of the hydrogen-air fuel cell using the sample as solid electrolyte was measured, which were compared with those of BaCe0.8Ho0.2O3 - α. In wet hydrogen, BaCe0.8 Ho0.2 O3 - α almost exhibits pure protonic conduction at 600-1000 ℃, and its protonic transport number is 1 at 600-900 ℃ and 0.99 at 1000 ℃. Similarly,Ba0.97Ce0.8Ho0.2O3-α exhibits pure protonic conduction with the protonic transport number of 1 at 600-700 ℃, but its protonic conduction is slightly lower than that of BaCe0.8Ho0.2O3-α, and the protonic transport number are 0.99-0.96 at 800-1000 ℃. In wet air, the two samples both show low protonic and oxide ionic conduction. For Ba0.97Ce0.8Ho0.2O3-α, the protonic and oxide ionic transport numbers are 0.01-0.11 and 0.30-0.31 respectively, and for BaCe0.8Ho0.2O3-α, 0.01-0.09 and 0.27-0.33 respectively. Ionic conductivities of Ba0.97Ce0.8Ho0.2O3-α are higher than those of BaCe0.8Ho0.2O3-α under wet hydrogen and wet air. The performance of the fuel cell using Ba0.97Ce0.8Ho0.2O3-α as solid electrolyte is better than that of BaCe0.8Ho0.2O3-α. At 1000 ℃, its maximum short-circuit current density and power output density are 465 mA/cm2 and 112 mW/cm2, respectively.

以Ba0.95Ce0.9Y0.1O3-α为固体电解质,Pt为电极,组成氢-空气燃料电池,测定了该电池600～1000℃下电流-电压特性、电极极化特性和电解质中各电荷载流子(质子、氧离子、电子空穴)迁移数及其电导率.实验表明,该电池放电性能良好,能稳定地输出电能,1000℃时的最大输出电流密度为680 mA@cm-2.正、负Pt电极极化特性很小,放电时的电压耗损主要由电解质电阻产生.在氢-空气燃料电池条件下,Ba0.95Ce0.9Y0.1O3-α显示混合离子(质子+氧离子)导电性.随着温度升高,质子迁移数减小而氧离子迁移数增大,当温度为780℃时,质子和氧离子迁移数相同(0.46),在低于780℃时,质子电导占优势,而在高于780℃时,氧离子电导占优势.
