Low-firing and temperature stability regulation of tri-rutile MgTa_(2)O_(6)microwave dielectric ceramics

A glass frit containing Li_(2)O-MgO-ZnO-B_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2)component was used to explore the low-temperature sintering behaviors and microwave dielectric characteristics of tri-rutile MgTa_(2)O_(6)ceramics in this study.The good low-firing effects are presented due to the high matching relevance between Li_(2)O-MgO-ZnO-B_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2)glass and MgTa_(2)O_(6)ceramics.The pure tri-rutile MgTa_(2)O_(6)structure remains unchanged,and high sintering compactness can also be achieved at 1150℃.We found that the Li_(2)O-MgO-ZnO-B_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2)glass not only greatly improves the low-temperature sintering characteristics of MgTa_(2)O_(6)ceramics but also maintains a high(quality factor(Q)×resonance frequency(f))value while still improving the temperature stability.Typically,great microwave dielectric characteristics when added with 2wt%Li_(2)O-MgO-ZnO-B_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2)glass can be achieved at 1150℃:dielectric constant,ε_(r)=26.1;Q×f=34267 GHz;temperature coefficient of resonance frequency,τ_(f)=-8.7×10^(-6)/℃.

Non-isothermal microwave leaching kinetics and absorption characteristics of primary titanium-rich materials

The non-isothermal leaching kinetics of primary titanium-rich material by microwave heating was investigated,and the temperature-pressure curves of leaching system and microwave absorption characteristics of mixture solutions before and after leaching were measured.The research of non-isothermal kinetics was evaluated by the leaching rate of Fe and the total apparent velocity equation of the non-isothermal kinetics of leaching for primary titanium-rich material by microwave heating was obtained.It is shown from the temperature-pressure curves that the high temperature and high pressure of closed leaching system are favorable to the enhancement of the leaching rate of Fe.Microwave absorption characteristics of mixture solutions before and after leaching show that there are abrupt changes of microwave absorption characteristics for 15%HCl solution and the mixture solution after leaching by 20%HCl.

Experimental study of C-band microwave scattering characteristics during the emulsification process of oil spills

In this study,oil spill experiments were performed in a water tank to determine changes in the surface scattering characteristics during the emulsification of oil spills.A C-band fully-polarimetric microwave scatterometer and a vector network analyzer were used to observe films of the following oils:crude oil with an asphalt content below3%that is prone to emulsification(type A),fresh crude oil extracted from an oilfield(type B),and industrial crude oil that was dehydrated and purified(type C).The difference in the backscatter results between the emulsified oil film and the calm water surface under C-band microwaves and the influence of the emulsification of the oil film on the backscatter were analyzed in detail.The results demonstrate that under a low-wind and no-waves condition(the maximum wave height was below than 3 mm),the emulsification of crude oil could modulated the backscatter through changes in the surface roughness and the dielectric constant,where the surface roughness had the dominant effect.The surface backscatters of the type B oil were greater than that of the type C oil in both the emulsified and non-emulsified states.In the non-emulsified state,the average differences in the backscatter between the type B and C oils were 2.19 dB,2.63 dB,and 2.21 dB for the polarization modes of VV,HH,and HV/VH,respectively.Smaller corresponding average differences of 0.98 dB,1.49 dB,and 1.5 dB were found for the emulsified state with a 20%moisture constant for the oil film.The results demonstrated that the surface roughness of the different oil films could vary due to the differences in the oil compositions and the oil film properties,which in turn affect the backscatter of the oil film surface.

The microwave scattering characteristics of sea ice in the Bohai Sea

Microwave remote sensing has become the primary means for sea-ice research, and has been supported by a great deal of field experiments and theoretical studies regarding sea-ice microwave scattering. However, these studies have been barely carried in the Bohai Sea. The sea-ice microwave scattering mechanism was first developed for the thin sea ice with slight roughness in the Bohai Sea in the winter of 2012, and included the backscattering coefficients which were measured on the different conditions of three bands（L, C and X）, two polarizations（HH and VV）, and incident angles of 20° to 60°, using a ground-based scatterometer and the synchronous physical parameters of the sea-ice temperature, density, thickness, salinity, and so on. The theoretical model of the sea-ice electromagnetic scattering is obtained based on these physical parameters. The research regarding the sea-ice microwave scattering mechanism is carried out through two means, which includes the comparison between the field microwave scattering data and the simulation results of the theoretical model, as well as the feature analysis of the four components of the sea-ice electromagnetic scattering. It is revealed that the sea-ice microwave scattering data and the theoretical simulation results vary in the same trend with the incident angles. Also, there is a visible variant in the sensitivity of every component to the different bands.For example, the C and X bands are sensitive to the top surface, the X band is sensitive to the scatterers, and the L and C bands are sensitive to the bottom surface, and so on. It is suggested that the features of the sea-ice surfaces and scatterers can be retrieved by the further research in the future. This experiment can provide an experimental and theoretical foundation for research regarding the sea-ice microwave scattering characteristics in the Bohai Sea.

Temperature Rise Characteristics of Carbon-Containing Chromite Ore Fines in Microwave Field

To avoid the nonuniform phenomena of heat and mass transfer of metallurgical powdery materials caused by conventional heating method,the temperature rise characteristics of carbon-containing chromite ore fines in the microwave field were investigated using microwave heating in a microwave metallurgical furnace.The experimental results show that the carbon-containing chromite ore fines have better temperature rise characteristics in the microwave field at a frequency of 2.45 GHz.After heated in the microwave field of 10 kW,the temperature of 1 kg carbon-containing chromite ore fines rose up to 1 100 ℃ in 7 min,at a temperature rise rate of 157.1（℃·min-1·kg-1）,whereas the temperature of 1 kg carbon-containing magnetite ore fines rose only up to 1 000 ℃ in 10 min,at a temperature rise rate of 100（℃·min-1·kg-1）.With increasing carbon-fitting ratios and by adding calcic lime,their heating effects changed regularly.

The microwave large signal load line of an InGaP HBT

The microwave dynamic load line characteristics of an advanced InGaP HBT are investigated experimentally and analyzed at small signal level and at large signal level for microwave power amplification. Investigation results show that the dynamic load curves are not always like an elliptic curve, and the current extreme points do not locate at voltage extreme points. The dynamic load curve current extreme point lines sit at the small signal load line up to the P-3dB point, and the lines show a constant slope from a small signal up to the saturation power point. A method to calculate the realistically delivered power to load is presented which fits the test result well.
