Hybrid ultraviolet photodetectors with high photosensitivity based on TiO2 nanorods array and polyfluorene

The highly oriented array composed of rutile TiO₂ nanorods is synthesized by the hydrothermal method on the SnO:F (FTO) substrate. The hybrid UV detector is fabricated via spin-coating a thin layer of poly (9,9-dihexylfluorene) (PFH) on the array. The device characteristics, including I-V curves under UV illumination and time response are studied. Obvious UV photoconductive effect is observed in the device and the response is fast to the switching on and off UV light illumination, which can be repeated for at least 50 times. The quick enhancement of the current origins from the large contact area between TiO₂ nanorods and PFH and the convenient charge transport in TiO₂ nanorods.

Fiber-based multiple-access frequency synchronization via 1f–2f dissemination

Considering the reference frequency dissemination requirements of the Square Kilometre Array telescope(SKA)project,on the basis of the 1f–2f precision frequency synchronization scheme,we propose and demonstrate a fiber-based multiple-access frequency synchronization scheme.The dissemination reference frequency can be recovered at arbitrary nodes along the entire fiber link.It can be applied to antennas close proximity to the SKA central station,and will lead to a better SKA frequency synchronization network.As a performance test,we recover the disseminated 100-MHz reference frequency at an arbitrary node chosen as being 5 km away from the transmitting site.Relative frequency stabilities of2.0×10~(-14)/s and 1.6×10~(-16)/10~4 s are obtained.We also experimentally verify the feasibility of a frequency dissemination link with three access points.     

High power nonuniform linear vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser array with a Gaussian far-field distribution

A 980 nm bottom-emitting vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) array with a nonuniform linear arrangement is reported to realize high power with a Gaussian far-field distribution. This array is composed of five symmetrically-arranged elements of 200 μm, 150 μm, and 100 μm diameters, with the center spacing of 300 μm and 250 μm respectively. This structure makes it possible to discriminate against the higher order array supermodes. The theoretical simulation of the far-field distribution is in good agreement with the experimental result. An output power of 880 mW with a power density of 1 KW/cm² is obtained. The divergence angle is below 20° in the range of operating current from 0 A to 4 A. The comparison between this nonuniform linear array and the conventional two-dimensional array is carried out to demonstrate the good performance of the linear array. A peak power of over 20 W is achieved under a short pulsed operation with a repetition frequency of 1 kHz.

为了分析环境辐射和大气吸收对红外辐射特性测量精度的影响,对基于中波红外探测器的红外测温进行了研究。首先,介绍了影响中波红外探测器测温精度的几种辐射能,根据测温模型得出了红外探测器像元灰度值和辐射照度之间的关系公式,并进一步推导出辐射测温的修正公式。以高精度面黑体为目标进行了测温实验,对红外探测器像元的灰度值进行修正并计算测温误差。结果显示,修正前、后测温误差的均方根分别为3.56℃和0.27℃,测温精度得到了显著的提高,表明该修正公式可准确地修正环境和大气吸收对中波红外探测器测温精度的影响。     

Combined effects of blockage and yield stress on drag and heat transfer from an in-line array of three spheres

This work reports results on the drag and heat transfer from an in-line array of three isothermal spheres falling in a cylindrical confinement filled with Bingham plastic fluids. The effects of dimensionless parameters, such as the Reynolds number (1 ≤ Re?≤?100), Prandtl number (1 ≤ Pr?≤?100), Bingham number (0 ≤ Bn?≤?100), blockage ratio (2 ≤ β?≤?4) and sphere-to-sphere distance (1.5 ≤ t?≤?6) have been elucidated. The flow and heat transfer characteristics were analysed in terms of yielded/unyielded regions, streamline and isotherm contours, drag coefficient, pressure coefficient, and local and average Nusselt number. Broadly, the drag coefficient shows a positive dependence on Bn and sphere-to-sphere distance (t) while it exhibits an inverse dependence on Re and β. On the other hand, the Nusselt number shows a positive dependence on Re, Pr, Bn and β; and a complex dependence on t for each sphere. Simple predictive expressions for the average Nusselt number for each sphere are formulated, thereby enabling its prediction in a new application.

加权函数对于圆弧形恒定束宽阵列的性能至关重要,因此分析了圆弧形恒定束宽阵列的加权函数的特性,并提出了sinc函数加权方法。分别对窄覆盖sinc函数加权阵列和宽覆盖sinc函数加权阵列的波束特性进行数值分析,验证其恒定束宽的波束特性。结果表明,sinc函数加权阵列在工作频率范围内产生近似不随频率变化的波束。此外,还与多种已有的圆弧形恒定束宽阵列进行对比分析,包括Legendre函数加权阵列、余弦函数加权阵列、Chebyshev多项式加权阵列等。结果表明,相较于已有的阵列,sinc函数加权阵列具有更低的低频截止频率,因而对应更大的工作频率范围。

Benefits of space-time diversity for radar

When designing a new radar system, standard resolution trade-offs play a major role, providing the basic parameters of the radar, such as size, update rate, and range. Besides, diversity has long been used for mitigating fading effects due to the fluctuation of targets and clutter.However, with the arrival of more flexible systems, using multiple parallel channels on transmit and receive, and wider instantaneous bandwidths, these standard trade-offs are becoming less simple—and more flexible. In this communication, we will analyse the benefits of diversity and its relations with range, Doppler, and angle, for detection and location of moving targets with wideband/wide-beam radar systems. The idea is to contribute to a better understanding of the real benefits of agile transmissions for detection/localization of moving targets, focusing on range, velocity, and angular measurement improvements, as well as on the benefits for detection of moving targets.Special attention will be given to the quality of the different wideband wide-beam sensor modes for long-range surveillance, and new results on detection of moving targets in clutter will be provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of these new architectures for small target detection at long range, in difficult environments.
