However, the full-width at half-maximum （FWHM） value was high to 116.9 arcsec. After three vapor transport equilibration （VTE） processes, we can obtain high-quality LiAlO2 slice with the FWHM value of 44.2 arcsec. ZnO films were fabricated on as-grown slices and after-VTE ones by pulsed laser deposition （PLD）. It was found that ZnO films on the two slices have similar crystallinity, optical transmittance and optical band gap at room temperature. These results not only show that LAO substrate is suitable for ZnO growth, but also prove that the crystal quality of LAO substrate slightly affects the structural and optical properties of ZnO film.展开更多

文摘In a pulsed plasma thruster,the voltage distribution between the electrodes is a key factor that influences the ionization process.However,few researchers have conducted in-depth studies of this phenomenon in the past.Reported here are measurements of the voltage distribution between the plates of a parallel-plate pulsed plasma thruster under different discharge voltages,based on which the variations in the total circuit inductance and resistance as well as those between the plates are calculated.The results show that the time-averaged voltage across the plates accounts for 28.7%-50.4%of the capacitor voltage.As the capacitor initial voltage increases from 1250 V to 2000 V,the voltage across the plates rises,but its proportion relative to the capacitor voltage decreases.For every 250 V increase in the capacitor initial voltage,the average voltage proportion across the plates decreases by approximately 2%-3%.Additionally,the voltage proportion decreases gradually from the end near the propellant outward.The voltage distribution ratio between the plates is correlated with the proportions of the resistance and inductance between the plates relative to the total circuit.

文摘The wide band gap characteristics of gallium oxide make it very suitable for the preparation of solar-blind ultra-violet photodetectors.The responsivity of ultraviolet photodetectors based on thin films is often low.However,nanomaterials have excellent photoelectric properties in device applications due to the high stability brought by high specific surface area and high crystal quality.Here,we successfully depositedβ-Ga_(2)O_(3) nanopores on the double-pass ordered porous AAO tem-plate by PLD.The porous AAO template is used as the growth space of nanomaterials,and the gallium oxide material is filled into the pores of the template to form a nanotube structure.By optimizing the preparation process,the relationship be-tween the performance of gallium oxide nanopores and the growth time was studied in depth.With the increase of growth time,the responsivity of the detector was improved.The rise timeτr=0.7 s,the decay timeτ_(d)=1.3 s,and the responsivity reached 4.63 mA·W^(-1),which was higher than 2.24 mA·W^(-1)of the responsivity of silicon-based gallium oxide nanorods.

文摘To enhance the reliability of aluminum alloy welding quality,this study investigates the effects of gas pulse parameters on the arc characteristics and weld quality in pulsed plasma gas variable polarity plasma arc welding(PPG-VPPAW)of 5051 aluminum alloy.Results showed that increasing the gas duty cycle enhanced arc pressure fluctuation but reduced average arc pressure.When the duty cycle exceeded 1/2,excessive pressure fluctuations destabilized the weld pool.Arc voltage fluctuations also intensified with larger duty cycles,reducing arc heat input and stability.Severe variations in arc divergence and high-temperature area were observed at duty cycles above 1/2,leading to poor heat transfer.Weld morphology confirmed these findings:duty cycles of 1/5 and 2/5 produced uniform surfaces with dense fish-scale ripples,while 3/5 and 4/5 introduced defects such as humping and undercut.Mechanical testing showed that conventional variable polarity plasma arc welding(VPPAW)joints reached 262 MPa tensile strength and 18.3%elongation,corresponding to 79.8%and 85.1%of base metal values.At a duty cycle of 2/5,the tensile strength increased to 297 MPa and the elongation to 21.5%,representing the best overall performance.Variations in the gas pulse frequency did not significantly affect the average arc pressure or arc voltage.However,as the gas pulse frequency decreased,the fluctuation frequency of the arc pressure and arc voltage also decreased,while the fluctuation amplitude of the arc voltage increased.At 8 Hz,the tensile strength and elongation increased by 13.4%and 17.5%,respectively,compared with lower frequencies(4 and 2.6 Hz).

文摘Pulsed magnet technology is the only way to generate ultra-strong magnetic fields higher than 45 T so far.However,the inherently fast-changing field strength(typically on the order of 1000 T/s)poses significant challenges for spectroscopic measurements which rely on time integration of signals to improve spectral qualities.In this work,we report high-sensitivity spectroscopic measurements under pulsed high magnetic fields employing the long flat-top pulsed magnetic field technique.By means of a multiple-capacitor power supply,we were able to generate pulsed high magnetic fields with controllable flat-top pulse width and field stabilities.By synchronizing spectroscopic measurements with the waveform of the flattop magnetic field,the integration time of each spectrum can be increased by up to 100 times compared with that of the conventional spectroscopic measurements under pulsed magnetic fields,thus enabling high-sensitivity spectroscopic measurements under ultra-strong pulsed magnetic fields.These findings promise an efficient way to significantly improve the performance and extend the application of optical measurements under pulsed high magnetic fields.
