It is shown that the GaN/SiC interface is rectifying towards positrons, such that positrons can only travel from SiC to GaN and not vice versa. Potential steps seen by the positron at the GaN/SiC interface are calculated from experimental values of electron and positron work function. This “rectifying” effect has been successfully mimicked by inserting a thin region of very high electric field in the Variable Energy Positron Fit （VEPF） analysis. The built-in electric field is attributed to different positron affinities, dislocation and/or interface defects at the GaN/SiC interface.展开更多

The ZnCo2O4/Si heterostructures show a good rectifying behavior at five different temperatures ranging from 50 K to 290 K. The measurements of the photovoltaic response reveals that a photovoltage of 33 mV is generated when the heterostructures are illuminated by a 532 nm laser of 250 mW/cm^2 and mechanically chopped at 2500 Hz. Both the photocurrent and the photovoltage clearly increase with the increase of the laser intensity at room temperature. However, the heterostructures＇ photovoltage peak decreases with the increase of the temperature. This work may open new perspectives for ZnCo2O4/Si heterostructure-based devices.展开更多

The belief function theory is used to characterize the uncertainty caused by various factors. A modified Markov model is proposed to obtain the state probabilities of components at any given moment and subsequently the mass function is used to represent the precise belief degree of state probabilities. Based on the primary studies of universal generating function(UGF)method, a belief UGF(BUGF) method is utilized to analyze the reliability and the uncertainty of excavator rectifier feedback system. This paper provides an available method to evaluate the reliability of multi-state systems(MSSs) with interval state performances and state probabilities, and also avoid the interval expansion problem.展开更多

文摘This paper presents an RF energy harvesting system for wireless intraocular pressure monitoring applications.The system consists of an implantable antenna and a rectifier.A new sizing strategy is adopted to optimize the conversion efficiency of the rectifier,and the design principle of an implantable antenna is introduced from material selection and structure design.Results from testing demonstrate that the antenna gain is about-20 dBi and the rectifier's maximum total conversion efficiency which contains match efficiency and rectifying efficiency is 47.18%under the implementation of0.18μm standard CMOS process.The maximum power obtained from the proposed system is 8μW when the power density of electromagnetic wave is lower than the national standard 40μW/cm^2 at915 MHz,which is enough to power the intraocular pressure monitoring system.
文摘Positron annihilation spectroscopy on GaN films grown on SiC substrate with MBE are presented. It is shown that the GaN/SiC interface is rectifying towards positrons, such that positrons can only travel from SiC to GaN and not vice versa. Potential steps seen by the positron at the GaN/SiC interface are calculated from experimental values of electron and positron work function. This “rectifying” effect has been successfully mimicked by inserting a thin region of very high electric field in the Variable Energy Positron Fit （VEPF） analysis. The built-in electric field is attributed to different positron affinities, dislocation and/or interface defects at the GaN/SiC interface.

文摘ZnCo2O4/Si heterostructures have been fabricated by a pulsed laser deposition method, and their transport behaviors and photovoltaic properties have been characterized. The ZnCo2O4/Si heterostructures show a good rectifying behavior at five different temperatures ranging from 50 K to 290 K. The measurements of the photovoltaic response reveals that a photovoltage of 33 mV is generated when the heterostructures are illuminated by a 532 nm laser of 250 mW/cm^2 and mechanically chopped at 2500 Hz. Both the photocurrent and the photovoltage clearly increase with the increase of the laser intensity at room temperature. However, the heterostructures＇ photovoltage peak decreases with the increase of the temperature. This work may open new perspectives for ZnCo2O4/Si heterostructure-based devices.

文摘This paper reports that the Schottky junctions between low work function metals （e.g. Al and In） and doped semiconducting polymer pellets （e.g. polyaniline （PANI） microsphere pellet and polypyrrole （PPy） nanotube pellet） have been prepared and studied. Since Ag is a high work function metal which can make an ohmic contact with polymer, silver paste was used to fabricate the electrodes. The Al/PANI/Ag heterojunction shows an obvious rectifying effect as shown in I - V characteristic curves （rectifying ratio γ = 5 at ±6 V bias at room temperature）. As compared to the Al/PANI/Ag, the heterojunction between In and PANI （In/PANI/Ag） exhibits a lower rectifying ratio γ= 1.6 at ±2 V bias at room temperature. In addition, rectifying effect was also observed in the heterojunctions Al/PPy/Ag （γ = 3.2 at ±1.6 V bias） and In/PPy/Ag （γ = 1.2 at ±3.0 V bias）. The results were discussed in terms of thermoionic emission theory.

文摘A Bi2Sr2Co2Oy/Si heterojunction is obtained by growing a layer of p-type oxygen-deficient Bi2Sr2Co2Oy film on a commercial n-type silicon wafer by pulsed laser deposition. Its rectifying and photovoltaic properties are studied in a wide temperature range from 20 K to 300 K. The transport mechanism under the forward bias can be attributed to a trap- filled space-charge-limited current conduction mechanism. Under the irradiation of a 532-nm continuous wave laser, a clear photovoltaic effect is observed and the magnitude ofphotovoltage increases as the temperature decreases, The results demonstrate the potential application of a Bi2SrzCo2Oy-based heterojunction in the photoelectronic devices.
文摘This paper explains step-by-step modeling and simulation of the full circuits of a battery control system and connected together starting from the AC input source to the battery control and storage system.The three-phase half-controlled rectifier has been designed to control and convert the AC power into DC power.In addition,two types of direct current converters have been used in this paper which are a buck and bidirectional DC/DC converters.These systems adjust the output voltage to be lower or higher than the input voltage.In the buck converters,the main switch operates in conduction or cut-off mode and is triggered by a Pulse-Width Modulated(PWM)signal.The output and input voltage levels ratio are used to calculate thePWMsignal’s duty cycle.Therefore,the duty cycle indicates the operation mode of the converter in steady-state operation.In this study,we analyze and control of a buck converter with the PWM signal.Besides,the bidirectional DC/DC converter has been achieved and optimized by PI control methods to control the battery charging and discharging modes.The simulation has been applied via the Matlab/Simulink environment.The results show the activity of each part of the designed circuits starting from the converters and the battery control system in charge and discharge modes.

文摘In view of the complexity and uncertainty of system, both the state performances and state probabilities of multi-state components can be expressed by interval numbers. The belief function theory is used to characterize the uncertainty caused by various factors. A modified Markov model is proposed to obtain the state probabilities of components at any given moment and subsequently the mass function is used to represent the precise belief degree of state probabilities. Based on the primary studies of universal generating function(UGF)method, a belief UGF(BUGF) method is utilized to analyze the reliability and the uncertainty of excavator rectifier feedback system. This paper provides an available method to evaluate the reliability of multi-state systems(MSSs) with interval state performances and state probabilities, and also avoid the interval expansion problem.
