It is indicated that the LED with the compound TCL of 3-layer Gr and 1 nm NiOx has the best thermal-electrical performance from the view point of the maximum temperature and the current density deviation of multiple quantum wells, and the maximum temperature occurs near the n-electrode rather than p-electrode. Furthermore, to depress the current crowding on the LED, the electrode pattern parameters including p- and n-electrode length, p-electrode buried depth and the distance of n-electrode to active area are optimized. It is found that either increasing p- or n-electrode length and buried depth or decreasing the distance of n-electrode from the active area will decrease the temperature of the LED, while the increase of the n-electrode length has more prominent effect. Typically, when the n-electrode length increases to 0.8 times of the chip size, the temperature of the GaN LED with the inm NiOx/3-1ayer-Gr hybrid TCLs could drop about 7K and the current density uniformity could increase by 23.8%, compared to 0.4 times of the chip size. This new finding will be beneficial for improvement of the thermal- electrical performance of LEDs with various conductive TCLs such as NiOx/Gr or ITO/Gr as current spreading layers.展开更多

The results obtained from recent studies prove that these alloys with nanocrystalline/amorphous structure formed by mechanical alloying (MA) or mechanical grinding (MG) have good electrode characteristics. In general, MA or MG, and elemental substitution alloying are regarded as the effective means to seek new system of Mg-based alloys and nano-composite with improved electrode characteristics. However, until now, the currently known improvement in these electrode characteristics is still far from reach to that required for commercial application.展开更多

The cell volume expansion of hexagonal structure was about 12 % after coating with 11 % Ni on the alloy Surface,When this alloy was mixed with Co powder. the discharge capacity and the utilization efficiency of the hydrogen storage alloy increased. When the alloy was coated with 11 wt-% Ni and also mixed with 10 wt-% Co powder. the capacity decay for a small sealed cylindrical cell (AA size. 1 Ah) was only about 4 % after 200 cycles展开更多

The mechanism of an AC plasma arc generated in water was analyzed. The voltage- current characteristic of the AC plasma are was obtained from the waveform. The temperature characteristic was tested with a spectrum diagnosis system, and the effect of different electrode materials on the striking voltage and peak current was analyzed. The results show that when a power supply of 6 kW is applied on electrodes with a gap of 2 mm in water, the striking voltage is from 900 V to 1300 V, the arc voltage is from 40 V to 100 V, the arc current is from 2 A to 7 A, and the zero rest period is from 1 ms to 2 ms. In addition, the arc voltage and current are different for electrodes in aluminum, copper and stainless steel. The arc voltage is lower and the current is higher for an aluminum electrode than those for copper and stainless steel ones. The highest temperature of the arc is 7643 K.展开更多
