The growth mechanism was attributed to the combination of kinetic dynamic, crystal fadal energy, and surface roughness. Two trap induced emission bands were evidenced via a low temperature cathodoluminescence （CL） study. Furthermore, the nanowire junctions demonstrated a degenerative photodetection performance, as compared to the straight arms, attributed to a stress-induced extra series resistance measured from the kinked area. The well-controllable shape of the inorganic nanostructures and the detailed exploration of their optoelectronic properties are particularly valuable for their further practical applications.展开更多

By using electron microscopy, the surfaces of the hexagram shaped Au particle were found to be {541} planes, which contain high-density steps and kinks. In addition, it was found that hexagonal shield-like and other kind of particles present in the product were analogues of the hexagram shaped Au particles structure, in that they had the same surface structure. In order to confirm the surface structure of all the prepared particles, surface structure sensitive underpotential deposition of Pb was carried out, and the cyclic voltammetric profile was in accordance with the proposed {541} surface. Finally, structure-property relationships of the Au hexagrams were experimentally analyzed by employing the electrocatalytic oxidation of AA as a probe reaction. The electrocatalytic reactions of gold cubes with low-index {100} facets and gold trioctahedra with {221} facets were studied as references. The experimental results showed that the hexagram shaped Au particles and their analogues with exposed {541} facets have the highest catalytic activity among the three kinds of gold particles, owing to the high density of kink atoms. This study should motivate us to further explore methods for the preparation of other well-defined polyhedral metal nanocrystals enclosed by high index surfaces.展开更多

The ult...A novel low temperature poly\|Si(LTPS) ultra\|thin channel thin film transistor (UTC\|TFT) technology is proposed. The UTC\|TFT has an ultra\|thin channel region (30nm) and a thick drain/source region (300nm). The ultra\|thin channel region that can result in a lower grain\|boundary trap density in the channel is connected to the heavily\|doped thick drain/source region through a lightly\|doped overlapped region. The overlapped lightly\|doped region provides an effective way for the electric field to spread in the channel near the drain at high drain biases, thereby reducing the electric field there significantly. Simulation results show the UTC\|TFT experiences a 50% reduction in peak lateral electric field compared to that of the conventional TFT. With the low grain\|boundary trap density and low drain electric field, excellent current saturation characteristics and high drain breakdown voltage are achieved in the UTC\|TFT. Moreover, this technology provides the complementary LTPS\|TFTs with more than 2 times increase in on\|current, 3.5 times reduction in off\|current compared to the conventional thick channel LTPS TFTs.展开更多

Test results show that such devices have good performance in delaying the occurrence of the “kink” phenomenon and improving the breakdown voltage as compared to conventional PDSOI nMOS- FETs,while not decreasing the threshold voltage of the back gate obviously. Numerical simulation shows that a reduced electrical field in the drain contributes to the improvement of the breakdown voltage and a delay of the “kink” effect. A detailed analysis is given for the cause of such improvement of breakdown voltage and the delay of the “kink” effect.展开更多

The external force has no helicity. The theory is based on the rigorous method of multi-scale asymptotic expansion. Nonlinear equations for instability are obtained in the third order of the perturbation theory. In this article, we explain in detail the nonlinear stage of the instability and we find the nonlinear periodic vortices and the vortex kinks of Beltrami type.展开更多

文摘In this paper we present a new experimental observation using a conventional reflectometry technique,poloidal correlation reflectometry(PCR),in the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak(EAST).The turbulence spectrum detected by the PCR system exhibits an asymmetry and induced Doppler shift f_(D)during the internal kink mode(IKM)rotation phase.This Doppler shift f_(D)is the target measurement of Doppler reflectometry,but captured by conventional reflectometry.Results show that the Doppler shift f_(D)is modulated by the periodic changes in the effective angle between the probing wave and cutoff layer normal,but not by plasma turbulence.The fishbone mode and saturated long-lived mode are typical IKMs,and this modulation phenomenon is observed in both cases.Moreover,the value of the Doppler shift f_(D)is positively correlated with the amplitude of the IKM,even when the latter is small.However,the positive and negative frequency components of the Doppler shift f_(D)can be asymmetric,which is related to the plasma configuration.A simulated analysis is performed by ray tracing to verify these observations.These results establish a clear link between f_(D)and IKM rotation,and are helpful for studying the characteristics of IKM and related physical phenomena.
文摘A novel low temperature poly\|Si(LTPS) ultra\|thin channel thin film transistor (UTC\|TFT) technology is proposed. The UTC\|TFT has an ultra\|thin channel region (30nm) and a thick drain/source region (300nm). The ultra\|thin channel region that can result in a lower grain\|boundary trap density in the channel is connected to the heavily\|doped thick drain/source region through a lightly\|doped overlapped region. The overlapped lightly\|doped region provides an effective way for the electric field to spread in the channel near the drain at high drain biases, thereby reducing the electric field there significantly. Simulation results show the UTC\|TFT experiences a 50% reduction in peak lateral electric field compared to that of the conventional TFT. With the low grain\|boundary trap density and low drain electric field, excellent current saturation characteristics and high drain breakdown voltage are achieved in the UTC\|TFT. Moreover, this technology provides the complementary LTPS\|TFTs with more than 2 times increase in on\|current, 3.5 times reduction in off\|current compared to the conventional thick channel LTPS TFTs.
文摘FB （floating-body） and BC （body-contact） partially depleted SOI nMOSFETs with HBC（half-back-channel） implantation are fabricated. Test results show that such devices have good performance in delaying the occurrence of the “kink” phenomenon and improving the breakdown voltage as compared to conventional PDSOI nMOS- FETs,while not decreasing the threshold voltage of the back gate obviously. Numerical simulation shows that a reduced electrical field in the drain contributes to the improvement of the breakdown voltage and a delay of the “kink” effect. A detailed analysis is given for the cause of such improvement of breakdown voltage and the delay of the “kink” effect.
文摘In this paper, we find a new large scale instability which appears in obliquely rotating flow with the small scale turbulence, generated by external force with small Reynolds number. The external force has no helicity. The theory is based on the rigorous method of multi-scale asymptotic expansion. Nonlinear equations for instability are obtained in the third order of the perturbation theory. In this article, we explain in detail the nonlinear stage of the instability and we find the nonlinear periodic vortices and the vortex kinks of Beltrami type.
