In this study, we employed high-quality crystalline TiN/Al_(2)O_(3)/BaTiO_(3)/Pt RRAM with an optimized thin Al_(2)O_(3) interlayer around 12 nm thick prepared using atomic layer deposition since the thickness of the interlayer affects the memory window size. After insertion of the Al_(2)O_(3) interlayer, the novel RRAM exhibited outstanding uniform resistive switching voltage and the ON/OFF memory window drastically increased from 10 to 103 without any discernible decline in performance. Moreover, the low-resistance state and high-resistance state operating current values decreased by almost one order and three orders of magnitude, respectively, thereby decreasing the power consumption for the RESET and SET processes by more than three and almost one order of magnitude, respectively. The device also exhibits multilevel resistive switching behavior when varying the applied voltage. Finally, we also developed a 6 6 crossbar array which demonstrated consistent and reliable resistive switching behavior with minimal variation. Hence, our approach holds great promise for producing state-of-the-art non-volatile resistive switching devices.展开更多

文摘As artificial intelligence and big data become increasingly prevalent, resistive random-access memory (RRAM) has become one of the most promising alternatives for storing massive amounts of data. In this study, we employed high-quality crystalline TiN/Al_(2)O_(3)/BaTiO_(3)/Pt RRAM with an optimized thin Al_(2)O_(3) interlayer around 12 nm thick prepared using atomic layer deposition since the thickness of the interlayer affects the memory window size. After insertion of the Al_(2)O_(3) interlayer, the novel RRAM exhibited outstanding uniform resistive switching voltage and the ON/OFF memory window drastically increased from 10 to 103 without any discernible decline in performance. Moreover, the low-resistance state and high-resistance state operating current values decreased by almost one order and three orders of magnitude, respectively, thereby decreasing the power consumption for the RESET and SET processes by more than three and almost one order of magnitude, respectively. The device also exhibits multilevel resistive switching behavior when varying the applied voltage. Finally, we also developed a 6 6 crossbar array which demonstrated consistent and reliable resistive switching behavior with minimal variation. Hence, our approach holds great promise for producing state-of-the-art non-volatile resistive switching devices.

文摘Differential inequalities generated in an extended Lyapunov framework are employed in the stability and instability analyses of a class of switched continuous-time second-and higher order linear systems with an arbitrary number of switching matrices.The exponential stability and instability(ESI)conditions so obtained involve the supremum and infimum of ratios of certain quadratic forms of the matrices,leading to global time-averages of their activity intervals.Further,motivated by linear switching system examples of(i)instability with stable matrices and(ii)stability with unstable matrices(found in the literature primarily for second-order systems),the proposed framework is generalized to establish ESI conditions that include both the activity intervals of the matrices and their switching rates,the latter being governed by a certain logarithmic measure of the normalized magnitudes of discontinuities caused by switching.In effect,(the new,globally averaged)dwell-time is flexibly traded,apparently for the first time,but under specific conditions(related,in part,to the eigenvalues of the matrices),for switching discontinuity-based conditions.Two further novel aspects of the proposed approach are:(i)For second-order matrices,switching lines in phase space can be chosen for periodic switching to stabilize or destabilize the system,and even generate oscillations,depending on the eigenvalues of the system matrices.But for third-(and higher)order matrices,such an analytically tractable(and controlled)periodical switching entails solution of an explicit non-convex multi-parameter optimization problem for which a stochastic optimization algorithm from the literature can be invoked.(ii)Lower and upper bounds on the solutions of the system equations can be quantified to reflect the stability/instability/oscillatory property of the system.Illustrative examples,which demonstrate the novelty of the derived stability and instability conditions,are presented in part 2 which is advisedly to be read along with this part 1 for a coherent merging of theory with practice.
文摘In this second part of the paper,bearing the same title as above,but with the last hyphenated phrase replaced by part 1(Theory),the exponential stability and instability(ESI)Theorems 1–4 of part 1 are illustrated by applying them to second-andby,say,third-order linear switched systems with different eigenvalue structures to demonstrate the versatility,novelty and superiority(over many of the results found in the literature,especially for second-order switched lined systems)of the new theoretical results.The computational procedure that is employed with reference to the third-order systems is generic,in the sense that it is applicable to higher(i.e.,greater than third-)order linear switched systems.A pseudo-code for a computer implementation of the stability/instability conditions is also presented.With the principal aim of facilitating an independent reading of this part 2 of the paper,some crucial mathematical notations,definitions and results of part 1 have been repeated,thereby making the contents as self-contained as possible.

文摘Titanium dioxide(TiO_(2))is an extremely promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries due to its low cost,minimal volume change,and extended cycle life.However,its electrochemical performance is severely hindered by inherent issues such as poor ionic and electronic conductivity.Here,we design a dual-phase conductor Co@TiO_(2),which contributes a synergistic storage mode consisting of a Li-accepting and an electron-accepting phase.In situ magnetic characterization and experimental results reveal the space charge storage mechanism in addition to traditional insertion mechanisms.Based on these mechanisms,the specific capacity and rate performance of the Co@TiO_(2)electrode have been greatly enhanced.Under a current density of 200 mA·g^(-1),the specific capacity of Co@TiO_(2)reaches 397.2 mAh·g^(-1).Upon increasing the current density to 10 A·g^(-1),the electrode still maintains a capacity of 83.1 mAh·g^(-1)after 900 cycles.This result offers a fresh perspective on the structural design of new anode materials to achieve high energy density.

文摘In this paper,we propose STPLF,which stands for the short-term forecasting of locational marginal price components,including the forecasting of non-conforming hourly net loads.The volatility of transmission-level hourly locational marginal prices(LMPs)is caused by several factors,including weather data,hourly gas prices,historical hourly loads,and market prices.In addition,variations of non-conforming net loads,which are affected by behind-the-meter distributed energy resources(DERs)and retail customer loads,could have a major impact on the volatility of hourly LMPs,as bulk grid operators have limited visibility of such retail-level resources.We propose a fusion forecasting model for the STPLF,which uses machine learning and deep learning methods to forecast non-conforming loads and respective hourly prices.Additionally,data preprocessing and feature extraction are used to increase the accuracy of the STPLF.The proposed STPLF model also includes a post-processing stage for calculating the probability of hourly LMP spikes.We use a practical set of data to analyze the STPLF results and validate the proposed probabilistic method for calculating the LMP spikes.
文摘Structured illumination,a wide-field imaging approach used in microscopy to enhance image resolution beyond the system's diffraction limits,is a well-studied technique that has gained significant traction over the last two decades.However,when translated to endoscopic systems,severe deformations of illumination patterns occur due to the large depth of field(DOF)and the 3D nature of the targets,introducing significant implementation challenges.Hence,this study explores a speckle-based system that best suits endoscopic practices to enhance image resolution by using random illumination patterns.The study presents a prototypic model of an endoscopic add-on,its design,and fabrication facilitated by using the speckle structured illumination endoscopic(SSIE)system.The imaging results of the SSIE are explained on a colon phantom model at different imaging planes with a wide field of view(FOV)and DOF.The obtained imaging metrics are elucidated and compared with state-of-the-art(SOA)high-resolution endoscopic techniques.Moreover,the potential for a clinical translation of the prototypic SSIE model is also explored in this work.The incorporation of the add-on and its subsequent results on the colon phantom model could potentially pave the way for its successful integration and use in futuristic clinical endoscopic trials.

文摘For permanent magnet synchronous machines(PMSMs),accurate inductance is critical for control design and condition monitoring.Owing to magnetic saturation,existing methods require nonlinear saturation model and measurements from multiple load/current conditions,and the estimation is relying on the accuracy of saturation model and other machine parameters in the model.Speed harmonic produced by harmonic currents is inductance-dependent,and thus this paper explores the use of magnitude and phase angle of the speed harmonic for accurate inductance estimation.Two estimation models are built based on either the magnitude or phase angle,and the inductances can be from d-axis voltage and the magnitude or phase angle,in which the filter influence in harmonic extraction is considered to ensure the estimation performance.The inductances can be estimated from the measurements under one load condition,which is free of saturation model.Moreover,the inductance estimation is robust to the change of other machine parameters.The proposed approach can effectively improve estimation accuracy especially under the condition with low current magnitude.Experiments and comparisons are conducted on a test PMSM to validate the proposed approach.
