The volume is much smaller than other types of charge-induced EFSs such as field-mills. As miniaturizing, the induced signal is reduced enormously and a high sensitive circuit is needed to detect it. Elaborately designed electrodes can increase the amplitude of the output current, making the detecting circuit simplified and improving the signal-to-noise ratio. Computer simulations for different structural parameters of the EFSs and vibrating methods have been carried out by Finite Element Method (FEM). It is proved that the new structures are realizable and the output signals are detectable.展开更多

The XRD results showed that all the Gd_(1–x)Ca_xFeO_3 (x=0–0.4) compounds crystallized as perovskite phase with orthorhombic structure. The doping of Ca in GdFeO_3 not only reduced the resistance, but also enhanced the response to methanol. The Gd_(0.9)Ca_(0.1)FeO_3 showed the best response to methanol among Gd_(1–x)Ca_xFeO_3 sensors. Besides, it showed good selectivity to methanol among methanol, ethanol, CO and formaldehyde gases. The responses at 260 oC for Gd_(0.9)Ca_(0.1)FeO_3-based sensor to 600 ppm methanol, ethanol and CO gases were 117.7, 72.7 and 31.9, respectively. Even at quite low gas concentrations, Gd_(0.9)Ca_(0.1)FeO_3-based sensor had an obvious response. At 260 °C, the response of 1.54 was obtained to be 45 ppm methanol. The experimental results showed that nanocrystalline Gd_(0.9)Ca_(0.1)FeO_3 based sensor can be used to detect methanol gas.展开更多

To design a receiver that performs well and overcomes the abovementioned problems, we performed forward modeling of the E-field abnormal response and established the receiver's characteristics. We describe the design optimization and the properties of each component, that is, low-noise induction coil sensor, low-noise Ag/AgCI electrode, low-noise chopper amplifier, digital temperature-compensated crystal oscillator module, acoustic telemetry modem, and burn wire system. Finally, we discuss the results of onshore and offshore field tests to show the effectiveness of the developed seafloor electromagnetic receiver and its performance: typical E-field noise of 0.12 nV/m/rt(Hz) at 0.5 Hz, dynamic range higher than 120 dB, clock drift lower than 1 ms/day, and continuous operation of at least 21 days.展开更多

Furthermore, the maximum detectable E-field of the sensor, which could be calculated from the sensor input/output characteristic, was approximately equal to 1000kV/m. All these results suggest that such sensor can be used for the measurement of the lighting impulse electric field.展开更多

The integrated optical E-field sensor (IOES) has remarkable advantages and has been used for PLIA E-field measurement. Firstly, the transfer function of the IOES has been calibrated to ensure measurement accuracy. The time-domain response illustrates that the sensor has a fast dynamic performance to effectively follow a 4 ns rising edge. Then, the E-field distribution along the axis and near the insula- tor surface of the PLIA was measured, showing that propagation of the E-field is almost lossless and the E-field near the insulation surface is about 1.1 times larger than that along the axis, which is in accordance with the simulation result.展开更多
