Conductivity and dielectric properties of sol–gel derived porous zirconia

The 8-mol percentage Y₂O₃-stabilized Porous Zirconia was prepared using sol–gel method. Zirconium oxalate gel was prepared by the addition of appropriate amount of oxalic acid solution into the 1 M aqueous solution of zirconium-oxy chloride. A cubic phase zirconia powder was obtained by calcination and milling of the zirconium oxalate gel. Crystallization temperature was found about 450 °C from the Differential thermal analysis. The phase analysis by X-ray diffraction shows the presence of cubic phase. Pellets sintered at 1,350 °C were highly porous, and the electrical conductivity was found with lower value due to the porosity, and the hardness was about 8.0 GPa.

Effective dielectric constant model of electromagnetic backscattering from stratified air–sea surface film–sea water medium

Studies of surface film medium on the sea surface are carried out in this paper for developing the technology to automatically detect and classify sea surface films, and an effective dielectric constant model of electromagnetic backscattering from a stratified air–ocean interface. Numerical results of the new model show the characteristics of effective dielectric constants for the air–sea surface film–sea water medium as follows. The effective dielectric constants decrease with increasing relative dielectric constants of the sea surface films. The effective dielectric constants decrease in horizontal polarization(abbr. HH polarization) and increase in VV vertical polarization(abbr. VV polarization) with increasing radar incident angle. Effective dielectric constants vary with relative sea surface film thickness as a cosinusoidal function of sea surface film thickness. Effective dielectric constant of VV polarization is larger than that of HH polarization. Two potential applications are found with our model, i.e., the retrieval of dielectric constants from the sea surface film, and the film thickness retrieval with our model. Our model has a highly significant influence on improving the technology related to the remote sensing of sea surface films.     

Effect of heat treatment on the structure and morphology of ZnO nanorod array and its composite with titania precursor

ABSTRACT

Effects of the elevated temperature on the structure evolution of the ZnO nanorod array (ZNA) and their hybrid nanocomposite with layered (tetramethyl)ammonium titanate (LTMAT) prepared by the liquid phase deposition were investigated. The vertically oriented ZnO nanorods were deposited on a quartz plate by a chemical bath deposition method and then they were penetrated by the LTMAT using the dip-coating method from the water solution. As a result of such an experimental procedure, an assembly composed of the ZNA with LTMAT was obtained and called hybrid nanocomposite. Since the LTMAT converts to TiO₂ upon subsequent sintering at 350 °C, it can be regarded as TiO₂ precursor for the thermal treatment experiments. The experiments with ZNA and their hybrid nanocomposite at the elevated temperature revealed coalescence of the deposited ZnO nanorods and crystallization of zinc titanate with Zn₂TiO₄ stoichiometry.     

Novel high-voltage self-adaptive power device based on interface charge＊

This paper presents a novel high-voltage lateral double diffused metal-oxide semiconductor （LDMOS） with self- adaptive interface charge （SAC） layer and its physical model of the vertical interface electric field. The SAC can be self-adaptive to collect high concentration dynamic inversion holes, which effectively enhance the electric field of dielectric buried layer （EI） and increase breakdown voltage （BV）. The BV and EI of SAC LDMOS increase to 612 V and 600 V/tim from 204 V and 90.7 V/ttm of the conventional silicon-on-insulator, respectively. Moreover, enhancement factors of r/which present the enhanced ability of interface charge on EI are defined and analysed.

Extremely low surface recombination in 1 Ω cm n‐type monocrystalline silicon

A key requirement in the recent development of highly efficient silicon solar cells is the outstanding passivation of their surfaces. In this work, plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition of a triple layer dielectric consisting of amorphous silicon, silicon oxide and silicon nitride, charged extrinsically using corona, has been used to demonstrate extremely low surface recombination. Assuming Richter's parametrisation for bulk lifetime, an effective surface recombination velocity S_eff = 0.1 cm/s at Δn = 10¹⁵ cm^–3 has been obtained for planar, float zone, n ‐type, 1 Ω cm silicon. This equates to a saturation current density J_0s = 0.3 fA/cm², and a 1‐sun implied open‐circuit voltage of 738 mV. These surface recombination parameters are among the lowest reported for 1 Ω cm c‐Si. A combination of impedance spectroscopy and corona‐lifetime measurements shows that the outstanding chemical passivation is due to the small hole capture cross section for states at the interface between the Si and a‐Si layer which are hydrogenated during nitride deposition.

Controlling optical responses through local dielectric resonance in nanometre metallic clusters

Optical responses in dilute composites are controlled through the local dielectric resonance of metallic clusters. We consider two located metallic clusters close to each other with admittances \varepsilon₁ and \varepsilon₂. Through varying the difference admittance ratio \eta [ = (\varepsilon₂- \varepsilon ₀) / (\varepsilon₁- \varepsilon₀)], we find that their optical responses are determined by the local resonance. There is a blueshift of absorption peaks with the increase of \eta. Simultaneously, it is known that the absorption peaks will be redshifted by enlarging the cluster size. By adjusting the nano-metallic cluster geometry, size and admittances, we can control the positions and intensities of absorption peaks effectively. We have also deduced the effective linear optical responses of three-component composites \varepsilon_e= \varepsilon₀ \bigl(1 + \sum_n=1^{n_s} [(\gamma_n2+ \eta \gamma_n2)/({\varepsilon₀(s - s_n))]} \bigr), and the sum rule of cross sections: \sum_n=1^{n_s} {(\gamma_n2+ \eta \gamma_n2 ) = N_h1+ N_h2, where N_h1and N_h2 are the numbers of \varepsilon₁ and \varepsilon₂ bonds along the electric field, respectively. These results may be beneficial to the study of surface plasmon resonances on a nanometre scale.
