Effects of defects on the effective thermal conductivity of thermal barrier coatings

It is difficult to establish structure-property relationships in thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) because of their inhomogeneous-geometry microstructures caused by defects. In the current research, the effects of pores and cracks on the effective thermal conductivity of TBCs are studied. Based on the law of the conservation of energy, mathematical formulations are proposed to indicate the relationship between defects and the effective thermal conductivity. In this approach, detailed equations are illustrated to represent the shape and size of defects on the effective thermal conductivity of TBCs. Different from traditional empirical analyses, mixture law or statistical method, for the first time, our results with the aid of finite element method (FEM) and strict analytical calculation show the influence of pore radius and crack length on effective thermal conductivity can be quantified. As an example to a typical microstructure of plasma sprayed TBCs, the effects of defects on the effective thermal conductivity of TBCs are expressed by the influence parameter, which indicating that the longest transverse crack dominates the contribution of the effective thermal conductivity along the spray direction compared with any individual defect.     

Time-clustering behavior of sharp fluctuation sequences in Chinese stock markets

Sharp fluctuations (in particular, extreme fluctuations) of asset prices have a great impact on financial markets and risk management. Therefore, investigating the time dynamics of sharp fluctuation is a challenge in the financial fields. Using two different representations of the sharp fluctuations (inter-event times and series of counts), the time clustering behavior in the sharp fluctuation sequences of stock markets in China is studied with several statistical tools, including coefficient of variation, Allan Factor, Fano Factor as well as R/S (rescaled range) analysis. All of the empirical results indicate that the time dynamics of the sharp fluctuation sequences can be considered as a fractal process with a high degree of time-clusterization of the events. It can help us to get a better understanding of the nature and dynamics of sharp fluctuation of stock price in stock markets.     

Preparation, thermo-optic property and simulation of optical switch based on azo benzothiazole polymer

An azo chromophore molecule 4-[(benzothiazole-2-yl)diazenyl]phenyl-1,3-diamine (BTPD) was prepared with 2-amino benzothiazole and m-phenylenediamine by diazo-coupling reaction. Then, the chromophore molecule BTPD was polymerized with NJ-210 and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) to obtain novel azo benzothiazole polymer (BTPU). The structures of BTPD and BTPU were characterized using the Fourier transform infrared, UV–visible spectroscopy, DSC and TGA. The physical properties of the obtained BTPU were investigated. The refractive index (n) of BTPU was demonstrated at different temperature and wavelength (532, 650 and 850 nm) using attenuated total reflection technique. The transmission loss and dispersion characteristic of BTPU film were investigated using the CCD digital imaging devices and Sellmeyer equation. A Y-branch and 2 × 2 Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) polymeric thermo-optic switches based on the thermo-optic effect of prepared BTPU were proposed and the performance of switches was simulated. The results indicated that the power consumption of the Y-branch thermo-optic switch could be only 0.6 mW. The Y-branch and MZI switching rising and falling times obtained were 8.0 and 1.8 ms.     

Non-Rayleigh photon statistics of superbunching pseudothermal light

Superbunching pseudothermal light has important applications in studying the second-and higher-order interference of light in quantum optics.Unlike the photon statistics of thermal or pseudothermal light is well understood,the photon statistics of superbunching pseudothermal light has not been studied yet.In this paper,we will employ single-photon detectors to measure the photon statistics of superbunching pseudothermal light and calculate the degree of second-order coherence.It is found that the larger the value of the degree of second-order coherence of superbunching pseudothermal light is,the more the measured photon distribution deviates from the one of thermal or pseudothermal light in the tail part.The results are helpful to understand the physics of two-photon superbunching with classical light.It is suggested that superbunching pseudothermal light can be employed to generate non-Rayleigh temporal speckles.
