This method improves the long-term locking performance and is suitable for other kinds of diode lasers.展开更多

High resolution X-ray diffraction measurements show that the full-widths-at-halfmaximum(FWHM) of rocking curves for the(0006) and(10-14) planes are 0.024° and 0.24°, and the corresponding densities of screw and edge dislocations are 2.24 × 106 and 1.63 × 109 cm-2, respectively, indicative of high single crystallinity. The out-ofplane and in-plane epitaxial relationships are [0001] α-Ga2O3//[0001] α-Al2O3 and [11-20] α-Ga2O3//[11-20] α-Al2O3, respectively.The lateral domain size is in micron scale and the indirect bandgap is determined as 5.03 eV by transmittance spectra. Raman measurement indicates that the lattice-mismatch induced compressive residual strain cannot be ruled out despite the large thickness of the α-Ga2O3 epilayer. The achieved high quality α-Ga2O3 may provide an alternative material platform for developing high performance power devices and solar-blind photodetectors.展开更多

Satellites observation and data down-link scheduling plays a significant role in improving the efficiency of satellite observation systems. However, the current works mainly focus on the scheduling of imaging satellites, little work focuses on the scheduling of EDSes for its specific requirements.And current works mainly schedule satellite resources and data down-link resources separately, not considering them in a globally optimal perspective. The EDSes and data down-link resources are scheduled in an integrated process and the scheduling result is searched globally. Considering the specific constraints of EDS, a coordinate scheduling model for EDS observation tasks and data transmission jobs is established and an algorithm based on the genetic algorithm is proposed. Furthermore, the convergence of our algorithm is proved. To deal with some specific constraints, a solution repairing algorithm of polynomial computing time is designed. Finally, some experiments are conducted to validate the correctness and practicability of our scheduling algorithms.展开更多

文摘Combining a progressive tandem junction design with a unique Si nanowire(SiNW)framework paves the way for the development of high‐onset‐potential photocathodes and enhancement of solar hydrogen production.Herein,a radial tandem junction(RTJ)thin film water‐splitting photo‐cathode has been demonstrated experimentally for the first time.The photocathode is directly fab‐ricated on vapor‐liquid‐solid‐grown SiNWs and consists of two radially stacked p‐i‐n junctions,featuring hydrogenated amorphous silicon(a‐Si:H)as the outer absorber layer,which absorbs short wavelengths,and hydrogenated amorphous silicon germanium(a‐SiGe:H)as the inner layer,which absorbs long wavelengths.The randomly distributed SiNW framework enables highly efficient light‐trapping,which facilitates the use of very thin absorber layers of a‐Si:H(~50 nm)and a‐SiGe:H(~40 nm).In a neutral electrolyte(pH=7),the three‐dimensional(3D)RTJ photocathode delivers a high photocurrent onset of 1.15 V vs.the reversible hydrogen electrode(RHE),accompanied by a photocurrent of 2.98 mA/cm^(2) at 0 V vs.RHE,and an overall applied‐bias photon‐to‐current effi‐ciency of 1.72%.These results emphasize the promising role of 3D radial tandem technology in developing a new generation of durable,low‐cost,high‐onset‐potential photocathodes capable of large‐scale implementation。

文摘Blue-red complex light emitting InGaN/GaN multi-quantum well(MQW)structures are fabricated by metal organic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD).The structures are grown on a 2-inch diameter(0001)oriented(c−face)sapphire substrate,which consists of an approximately 2-µm−thick GaN template and a five-period layer consisting of a 4.9-nm-thick In0.18Ga0.82N well layer and a GaN barrier layer.The surface morphology of the MQW structures is observed by an atomic force microscope(AFM),which indicates the presence of islands of several tens of nanometers in height on the surface.The high resolution x−ray diffraction(XRD)θ/2θscan is carried out on the symmetric(0002)of the InGaN/GaN MQW structures.At least four order satellite peaks presented in the XRD spectrum indicate that the thickness and alloy compositions of the individual quantum wells are repeatable throughout the active region.Besides the 364 nm GaN band edge emission,two main emissions of blue and amber light from these MQWs are found,which possibly originate from the carrier recombinations in the InGaN/GaN QWs and InGaN quasi-quantum dots embedded in the QWs.

文摘The forward current transport mechanism and Schottky barrier characteristics of a Ni/Au contact on n-GaN are studied by using temperature-dependent current-voltage(T–I–V)and capacitance-voltage(C–V)measurements.The low-forward-bias I–V curve of the Schottky junction is found to be dominated by trap-assisted tunneling below 400 K,and thus can not be used to deduce the Schottky barrier height(SBH)based on the thermionic emission(TE)model.On the other hand,TE transport mechanism dominates the high-forward-bias region and a modified I–V method is adopted to deduce the effective barrier height.It is found that the estimated SBH(~0.95 eV at 300 K)by the I–V method is~0.20 eV lower than that obtained by the C–V method,which is explained by a barrier inhomogeneity model over the Schottky contact area.

文摘We report a perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction(p MTJ)cell with a tunnel magnetoresistance(TMR)ratio of nearly 200%at room temperature based on Co Fe B/Ta/Co Fe B as the free layer(FL)and a synthetic antiferromagnetic(SAF)multilayer[Pt/Co]/Ru/[Pt/Co]/Ta/Co Fe B as the reference layer(RL).The field-driven magnetization switching measurements show that the p MTJs exhibit an anomalous TMR hysteresis loop.The spin-polarized layer Co Fe B of SAF-RL has a lower critical switching field than that of FL.The reason is related to the interlayer exchange coupling(IEC)through a moderately thick Ta spacer layer among SAF-RLs,which generates a moderate and negative bias magnetic field on Co Fe B of RL.However,the IEC among RLs has a negligible influence on the current-driven magnetization switching of FL and its magnetization dynamics.

文摘Magnonic devices based on spin waves are considered as a new generation of energy-efficient and high-speed devices for storage and processing of information.Here we experimentally demonstrate that three distinct dominated magneto-dynamic modes are excited simultaneously and coexist in a transversely magnetized ferromagnetic wire by the ferromagnetic resonance(FMR)technique.Besides the uniform FMR mode,the spin-wave well mode,the backward volume magnetostatic spin-wave mode,and the perpendicular standing spin-wave mode are experimentally observed and further confirmed with more detailed spatial profiles by micromagnetic simulation.Furthermore,our experimental approach can also access and reveal damping coefficients of these spin-wave modes,which provides essential information for development of magnonic devices in the future.

文摘Solid-state batteries are widely recognized as the next-generation energy storage devices with high specific energy,high safety,and high environmental adaptability.However,the research and development of solid-state batteries are resource-intensive and time-consuming due to their complex chemical environment,rendering performance prediction arduous and delaying large-scale industrialization.Artificial intelligence serves as an accelerator for solid-state battery development by enabling efficient material screening and performance prediction.This review will systematically examine how the latest progress in using machine learning(ML)algorithms can be used to mine extensive material databases and accelerate the discovery of high-performance cathode,anode,and electrolyte materials suitable for solid-state batteries.Furthermore,the use of ML technology to accurately estimate and predict key performance indicators in the solid-state battery management system will be discussed,among which are state of charge,state of health,remaining useful life,and battery capacity.Finally,we will summarize the main challenges encountered in the current research,such as data quality issues and poor code portability,and propose possible solutions and development paths.These will provide clear guidance for future research and technological reiteration.

文摘Hydrogen has emerged as a promising clean energy carrier,and the development of cost-effective electrocatalysts that retain high activity under acidic media is crucial for advancing proton exchange membrane water electrolysis(PEMWE).Here,we propose the SiO_(x)/RuCoO_(x)nanoparticles(SiO_(x)/RuCoO_(x)NPs)as bifunctional electrocatalysts for efficient hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)and oxygen evolution reaction(OER)under acidic media.The Ru-O-Si interface,along with charge transfer between Ru and Co,modulates the d-band electronic structure of the Ru site,achieving superior performance with a low HER overpotential of 18 mV at 10 mA cm^(-2)and a turnover frequency of 8.86 H_(2)s^(-1)at 100 mV.For OER,the overpotential is 217 mV at 10 mA cm^(-2).SiO_(x)/RuCoO_(x)NPs exhibit a cell voltage of 1.482 V at 10 mA cm^(-2)with an energy conversion efficiency of 83.0%.This work takes a significant step toward achieving efficient and cost-effective bifunctional electrocatalysts for water splitting,playing a critical role in the transition to clean energy technologies.

文摘Sequential processing(SqP)of the active layer offers independent optimization of the donor and acceptor with more targeted solvent design,which is considered the most promising strategy for achieving efficient organic solar cells(OSCs).In the SqP method,the favorable interpenetrating network seriously depends on the fine control of the bottom layer swelling.However,the choice of solvent(s)for both the donor and acceptor have been mostly based on a trial-and-error manner.A single solvent often cannot achieve sufficient yet not excessive swelling,which has long been a difficulty in the high efficient SqP OSCs.Herein,two new isomeric molecules are introduced to fine-tune the nucleation and crystallization dynamics that allows judicious control over the swelling of the bottom layer.The strong non-covalent interaction between the isomeric molecule and active materials provides an excellent driving force for optimize the swelling-process.Among them,the molecule with high dipole moment promotes earlier nucleation of the PM6 and provides extended time for crystallization during SqP,improving bulk morphology and vertical phase segregation.As a result,champion efficiencies of 17.38%and 20.00%(certified 19.70%)are achieved based on PM6/PYF-T-o(all-polymer)and PM6/BTP-eC9 devices casted by toluene solvent.

文摘The 8 μm thick single-crystalline α-Ga2O3 epilayers have been heteroepitaxially grown on sapphire(0001) substrates via mist chemical vapor deposition technique. High resolution X-ray diffraction measurements show that the full-widths-at-halfmaximum(FWHM) of rocking curves for the(0006) and(10-14) planes are 0.024° and 0.24°, and the corresponding densities of screw and edge dislocations are 2.24 × 106 and 1.63 × 109 cm-2, respectively, indicative of high single crystallinity. The out-ofplane and in-plane epitaxial relationships are [0001] α-Ga2O3//[0001] α-Al2O3 and [11-20] α-Ga2O3//[11-20] α-Al2O3, respectively.The lateral domain size is in micron scale and the indirect bandgap is determined as 5.03 eV by transmittance spectra. Raman measurement indicates that the lattice-mismatch induced compressive residual strain cannot be ruled out despite the large thickness of the α-Ga2O3 epilayer. The achieved high quality α-Ga2O3 may provide an alternative material platform for developing high performance power devices and solar-blind photodetectors.

文摘Electromagnetic detection satellite(EDS) is a type of Earth observation satellite(EOS). Satellites observation and data down-link scheduling plays a significant role in improving the efficiency of satellite observation systems. However, the current works mainly focus on the scheduling of imaging satellites, little work focuses on the scheduling of EDSes for its specific requirements.And current works mainly schedule satellite resources and data down-link resources separately, not considering them in a globally optimal perspective. The EDSes and data down-link resources are scheduled in an integrated process and the scheduling result is searched globally. Considering the specific constraints of EDS, a coordinate scheduling model for EDS observation tasks and data transmission jobs is established and an algorithm based on the genetic algorithm is proposed. Furthermore, the convergence of our algorithm is proved. To deal with some specific constraints, a solution repairing algorithm of polynomial computing time is designed. Finally, some experiments are conducted to validate the correctness and practicability of our scheduling algorithms.
