In this work,the dependence of superconducting properties of YBCO on CeO2 films with different thicknesses was investigated,in order to achieve fabrication of high-performance YBCO coated conductors in industrial scale. The crystalline structure and morphology of CeO2 films with thickness ranging from 21 to 563 nm were systematically characterized by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD), atomic force microscope(AFM) and reflection high-energy electron diffraction(RHEED). Additional focus was addressed on evolution of the surface quality of CeO2 films with thickness increasing. The results show that at the optimal thickness of 221 nm, CeO2 film exhibits sharp in-plane and out-of-plane texture with full width of half maximum(FWHM) values of 5.9° and 1.8°, respectively, and smooth surface with a mean root-mean-square(RMS) roughness value as low as 0.6 nm. Combing RHEED and transmission electron microscope(TEM) cross-sectional analysis, it is found that nucleation and growth of CeO2 films at early stage remain in island growth mode with rougher surface,while further increasing the thickness beyond the optimal thickness leads to weak surface quality, consequently resulting in degradation of superconductor layers deposited subsequently. Eventually, a critical current density(Jc) as high as 4.6×10-6 A·cm-(-2)(77 K, self-field) is achieved on a YBCO film on a thickness-modulated CeO2/MgO/Y2 O3/Al2 O3/C276 architecture, demonstrating the advantages of CeO2 films as buffer layer in high-throughput manufacture of coated conductors.展开更多

The characteristics of radio frequency discharge burst in terms of breakdown voltage, alpha(s)- gamma(γ) mode transition voltage and current are demonstrated by the discharge current voltage characteristics. The minimum breakdown voltage of RF discharge burst was obtained at the duty cycle of 20% and frequency of 400 kHz, respectively. The α-γ mode transition of RF discharge burst occurs at higher voltage and current by reducing the duty cycle and elevating the modulation frequency before the RF discharge burst evolving into the ignition phase, in which the RF discharge burst can operate stably in the γ mode. It proposes that the intensity and stability of RF discharge burst can be improved by manipulating the duty cycle and modulation frequency in pulse modulated atmospheric RF glow discharge.展开更多

In this paper the center energy valley (Г valley) electron concentration changes with the pulse delay time, sampling time and the outfield are mainly discussed. The results show that the sampling time and the THz field should exceed certain thresholds to effectively excite photoluminescence quenching (PLQ). Adopting a direct current (DC) field makes the sampling time threshold shortened and the linear range of THz field-modulation PL expanded. Moreover, controlling the sampling time and the outfield intensity can improve the linear quality: with forward time, the larger outfield is used; with backward time, the smaller outfield is used. This study can provide a theoretical basis of THz field linear modulation in a larger range for new light emitting devices.展开更多

In addition, a convenient method of establishing the discrete-time model of piecewise smooth system is presented. Finally, the analytical results are confirmed by circuit simulations and experimental measurements.展开更多

The application of nonlinear optical rotation is also discussed in an all-optical switch.
文摘In this paper, the performance of various Pulse Position Modulation (PPM) schemes has been analysed for PIN and APD receivers in the presence of atmospheric turbulence. It is observed that the performance of the APD receiver is always better than that of the PIN receiver as expected. Among the various modulation schemes, the performance of Differential Amplitude PPM (DAPPM) scheme with more number of amplitude levels is better than that of the other schemes for the same single level peak amplitude. Further, the optimum gain of APD receiver does not change substantially for different modulation schemes and turbulent conditions.
