Anode-supported solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) based on thin BaZr0.8Y0.2O3 ? δ (BZY) electrolyte films were fabricated by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) on sintered NiO–BZY composite anodes. After insitu reduction of NiO to Ni, the anode substrates became porous, while retaining good adhesion with the electrolyte. A slurry-coated composite cathode made of La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3?δ (LSCF) and BaCe0.9Yb0.1O3?δ (BCYb), specifically developed for proton conducting electrolytes, was used to assemble fuel cell prototypes. Depositing by PLD 100 nm thick LSCF porous films onto the BZY thin films was essential to improve the cathode/electrolyte adhesion. A power density output of 110 mW/cm2 at 600 °C, the largest reported value for an anode-supported fuel cell based on BZY at this temperature, was achieved. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements were used to investigate the different contributions to the total polarization losses. 相似文献
The phonon modes of crystalline benzoic acid have been investigated using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy, rigid molecule atom-atom model potential and plane-wave density functional theory lattice dynamics calculations. The simulation results show good agreement with the measured terahertz spectra and an assignment of the terahertz absorption features of benzoic acid is made with the help of both computational methods. Focussing on the strongest interactions in the crystal, we describe each vibration in terms of distortions of the benzoic acid hydrogen bonded dimers that are present in the crystal structure. The terahertz spectrum is also shown to be highly sensitive to the location of the carboxylic acid hydrogen atoms in the cyclic hydrogen-bonded dimers and we have systematically explored the influence of the observed disorder in the hydrogen atom positions on the lattice dynamics. 相似文献
The quinoidal versus biradicaloid character of the ground state of a series of thiophene‐based heterophenoquinones is investigated with quantum‐chemical calculations. The role of the ground‐state electronic character on molecular structure and vibrational properties is emphasized. The vibrational activities are experimentally determined and their analysis is performed by taking advantage of the definition of a collective vibrational coordinate (the
A fast full second order time-step algorithm for some recently proposed nonlinear, nonlocal active models for the inner ear is analyzed here. In particular, we emphasize the properties of discretized systems and the convergence of a hybrid direct-iterative solver for its approximate solution in view of the parameters of the continuous model. We found that the proposed solver is faster than standard sparse direct solvers for all the considered discrete models.Numerical tests confirm that the proposed techniques are crucial in order to get fast and reliable simulations. 相似文献
In this paper the analysis of a self-excited tower under turbulent wind flow is carried out. The structure is considered as a one dof nonlinear system, and the implications of this modeling are deeply discussed. The stationary wind is responsible for self-excitation, while the turbulent part provides both parametric and external excitations. The simultaneous presence of those excitations is taken into account in a specific resonance condition. The periodic and quasi-periodic solutions are studied by means of a perturbation method and the effects of the turbulence on the dynamics of the structure are analyzed. 相似文献
A discrete-time version of the replicator equation for two-strategy games is studied. The stationary properties differ from those of continuous time for sufficiently large values of the parameters, where periodic and chaotic behavior replace the usual fixed-point population solutions. We observe the familiar period-doubling and chaotic-band-splitting attractor cascades of unimodal maps but in some cases more elaborate variations appear due to bimodality. Also unphysical stationary solutions can have unusual physical implications, such as the uncertainty of the final population caused by sensitivity to initial conditions and fractality of attractor preimage manifolds. 相似文献
We have measured the 1S-2S transition frequency in atomic hydrogen via two-photon spectroscopy on a 5.8 K atomic beam. We obtain f(1S-2S) = 2,466,061,413,187,035 (10) Hz for the hyperfine centroid, in agreement with, but 3.3 times better than the previous result [M. Fischer et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 230802 (2004)]. The improvement to a fractional frequency uncertainty of 4.2 × 10(-15) arises mainly from an improved stability of the spectroscopy laser, and a better determination of the main systematic uncertainties, namely, the second order Doppler and ac and dc Stark shifts. The probe laser frequency was phase coherently linked to the mobile cesium fountain clock FOM via a frequency comb. 相似文献
