Effective spectral emissivity measurements of superalloys and YSZ thermal barrier coating at high temperatures using a 1.6μm single wavelength pyrometer

A method which employs an integrating sphere and a single-wavelength (1.6 μm) pyrometer for measuring the spectral effective emissivities of superalloys in the temperature range (=650–1050°C) is described. The spectral effective emissivities for five superalloys, namely, MARM-247, MARM-509, CMSX-4, Inconel-718, N-155 and two René-N6 samples coated with YSZ thermal barrier coating were measured. Correcting the pyrometer measurements for the variations in the object emissivity would reduce the uncertainty in the temperature measurements to <±1%.

交流和纳秒脉冲Ar/H2O介质阻挡放电聚丙烯材料表面亲水改性对比研究

为了提高等离子体对聚合物材料表面处理的应用效果,优化亲水处理的条件,研究了交流和纳秒脉冲氩气介质阻挡放电（DBD）中添加适量H₂O,对聚丙烯（PP）亲水改性的处理效果。利用电学和光学诊断方法,系统地对比了交流DBD和纳秒脉冲DBD的放电特性,结果表明,纳秒电源驱动DBD具有更高的放电瞬时功率,更好的放电均匀性和更高的能量效率。通过测量不同水蒸气含量下DBD的OH发射光谱强度,确定了PP材料亲水性处理中H₂O添加的最优含量。利用交流和纳秒脉冲电源驱动DBD分别对PP材料进行亲水改性的处理,测量了不同条件下改性处理后的表面水接触角,并利用原子力显微镜（AFM）和傅里叶红外光谱（FTIR）分别对处理前后PP材料的表面物理形貌和表面化学成分进行分析。结果发现,经DBD处理后PP材料的水接触角明显降低,表面粗糙度明显增大,表面的亲水性含氧基团,羟基（−OH）和羰基（C=O）的数量大幅增加。相比交流电源,纳秒脉冲DBD处理的改性效果更好,其处理后的材料表面水接触角,比交流DBD处理的低5°左右,表面粗糙度也有所提升。而水蒸气的加入可使PP材料的表面水接触角进一步减小4°左右,表面粗糙度明显提升。研究结果为优化DBD聚合物材料表面改性实验条件及处理的效果提供了重要的参考依据。     

Fission fragment mass yields of Th to Rf even-even nuclei

Fission properties of the actinide nuclei are deduced from theoretical analysis. We investigate potential energy surfaces and fission barriers and predict the fission fragment mass yields of actinide isotopes. The results are compared with experimental data where available. The calculations were performed in the macroscopic-microscopic approximation with the Lublin-Strasbourg Drop (LSD) for the macroscopic part, and the microscopic energy corrections were evaluated in the Yukawa-folded potential. The Fourier nuclear shape parametrization is used to describe the nuclear shape, including the non-axial degree of freedom. The fission fragment mass yields of the nuclei considered are evaluated within a 3D collective model using the Born-Oppenheimer approximation.     

不规则H形量子势垒增强AlGaN基深紫外发光二极管性能

针对AlGaN基多量子阱中有效的平衡载流子注入问题,研究了有源区势垒层中Al组分调制形成的非规则H形量子势垒对AlGaN基深紫外发光二极管(LED)器件性能的影响及载流子的输运行为。研究发现,与多量子阱中常用的单Al组分势垒相比,加入Al组分较高的双尖峰势垒可以有效地提高内量子效率和光输出功率。进一步研究表明,电子在有源区因凸起的尖峰势垒而得到了有效的阻挡,减少了电子的泄露,而空穴获得更多的动能从而穿过较高的势垒进入有源区。因此,采用非对称H形量子势垒的深紫外LED器件中载流子输运实现了较好的平衡,量子阱中的载流子复合速率远高于普通的深紫外发光二极管。     

Emergence of a non-Fowler-Nordheim-type behavior for a general planar tunneling barrier

In this work we investigate a generalized tunneling barrier for planar emitters at zero-temperature. We present the evidence of the emergence of a non-Fowler-Nordheim-type general behavior for the field emission current density in the case that the Fermi energy (μ) is comparable with or smaller that the decay width ($d_F$). Therefore, for some non-metals or materials that have very small Fermi energy the standard Fowler-Nordheim-type theory may require a correction. In the opposite regime, i.e., for μ much larger that $d_F$, we confirm that the conventional theory is suitable for metals.     

Influence of wire mesh electrodes on the volume and surface characteristics of dielectric barrier discharge of atmospheric pressure helium

The dielectric barrier discharge of helium in a 6 mm gap at atmospheric pressure was studied. In this paper, the influence of electric field distribution on the uniformity of DBD is analyzed theoretically and verified by experiments. The experimental results show that the mesh electrode produces a local enhancement effect by affecting the electric field and then produces corona discharge, which provides seed electrons for the subsequent discharge process. The effects of mesh diameter and size on discharge uniformity and stability are analyzed, the electrode structure parameters are optimized, the method of a segmented electrode is proposed, and the discharge process and charge distribution are studied. The electrical diagnosis results of plasma technology show that the segmented mesh electrode reduces the breakdown voltage of DBD and increases the charge deposition.     

Maximum norm stability of difference schemes for parabolic equations on overset nonmatching space-time grids

In this paper, theoretical results are described on the maximum norm stability and accuracy of finite difference discretizations of parabolic equations on overset nonmatching space-time grids. We consider parabolic equations containing a linear reaction term on a space-time domain which is decomposed into an overlapping collection of cylindrical subregions of the form , for . Each of the space-time domains are assumed to be independently grided (in parallel) according to the local geometry and space-time regularity of the solution, yielding space-time grids with mesh parameters and . In particular, the different space-time grids need not match on the regions of overlap, and the time steps can differ from one grid to the next. We discretize the parabolic equation on each local grid by employing an explicit or implicit -scheme in time and a finite difference scheme in space satisfying a discrete maximum principle. The local discretizations are coupled together, without the use of Lagrange multipliers, by requiring the boundary values on each space-time grid to match a suitable interpolation of the solution on adjacent grids. The resulting global discretization yields a large system of coupled equations which can be solved by a parallel Schwarz iterative procedure requiring some communication between adjacent subregions. Our analysis employs a contraction mapping argument.

Applications of the results are briefly indicated for reaction-diffusion equations with contractive terms and heterogeneous hyperbolic-parabolic approximations of parabolic equations.

     

复杂结构自组织等离子体光子晶体光谱研究

利用双水电极介质阻挡放电装置,在气体放电中产生了一种由放电丝自组织形成的复杂结构等离子体光子晶体。该晶体结构由许多四边形的晶胞组成,每个晶胞包括大点、两种不同的小点和线,分别对应粗等离子体柱、两种细等离子体柱和等离子体片。采用发射光谱法,对不同位置处的等离子体状态进行了研究,对比了其电子密度和分子振动温度。具体方法是通过氩原子696.54 nm(2P₂→1S₅)的发射谱线测量谱线展宽进而对比电子密度,通过氮分子第二正带系(C3Π_u→B3Π_g)的发射谱线计算分子振动温度。结果发现：四种不同位置的等离子体具有不同的电子密度和分子振动温度,即它们各自处于不同的等离子体态。电子密度按照降序排列顺序依次为：中心粗等离子体柱四周的细等离子体柱、粗等离子体柱、边缘处的等离子体片、等离子体片交叉点处的细等离子体柱;分子振动温度的变化趋势与电子密度相反。由于等离子体电子密度不同,对光的折射率也不同,因此在该晶体结构中,粗等离子体柱、两种细等离子体柱以及等离子体片具有不同的折射率,它们和周围未放电的区域自组织形成具有五种折射率的复杂结构等离子体光子晶体。该等离子体光子晶体易于产生,具有结构多样、分析简单的优点,具有广泛的应用前景。
