However, a clear classification,fair comparison, and performance rationalization of these methods are lacking, due to the scattered existing studies. To address these issues, we develop 20 capacity estimation methods from three perspectives:charging sequence construction, input forms, and ML models. 22,582 charging curves are generated from 44 cells with different battery chemistry and operating conditions to validate the performance. Through comprehensive and unbiased comparison, the long short-term memory(LSTM) based neural network exhibits the best accuracy and robustness. Across all 6503 tested samples, the mean absolute percentage error(MAPE) for capacity estimation using LSTM is 0.61%, with a maximum error of only 3.94%. Even with the addition of 3 m V voltage noise or the extension of sampling intervals to 60 s, the average MAPE remains below 2%. Furthermore, the charging sequences are provided with physical explanations related to battery degradation to enhance confidence in their application. Recommendations for using other competitive methods are also presented. This work provides valuable insights and guidance for estimating battery capacity based on partial charging curves.展开更多

At the same time, performance improvement of semiconductor and dielectric materials further promotes electronic components confinement, resulting in a significant increase of embedded power densities. In the particular case of future hybrid propulsion aircrafts, electrical power that intended to supply reactors would be converted through power electronics components mounted on power busbars and insulated by solid dielectrics materials. These dielectrics materials have to respond to various electrical constraints of use (HVDC), in spite of environment change of aircraft parameters such as low pressure, temperature and thermal cycles, humidity... Unfortunately, partial discharges phenomenon is the most problem within electrical insulation system (EIS). Based on a topological model of power busbars designed for power converters dedicated to hybrid aircraft, partial discharge studies were conducted by simulation in various charging conditions of a PTFE insulator. Simulation results, which focus on electric field thresholds criteria of partial discharge inception voltage in air, reveal a net sensitivity of a space charge accumulation and distribution on dielectrics behaviour even for low space charge density, depending on their location in dielectrics. Compared to the behaviour observed with implanted homocharges, when by increasing homocharges density from 0.5 C/m3 to 2 C/m3 we observe a decrease of electric field by 450%, simulation results show a highest risk of partial discharge inception when heterocharges are accumulated inside dielectrics. Their accumulation increases the electric field in triple points beyond electric field thresholds of partial discharge inception in air. The simulated electric field reaching 22 kV/mm with only 2 C/m3 of heterocharges density accumulated in dielectric/busbars interfaces.展开更多

Transient signal characteristics of a 0.18-p.m single MOS device, such as SET pulse width, pulse maximum, and collected charge, are measured and an- alyzed at wafer level. We analyze in detail the influences of supply voltage and pulse energy on the SET characteristics of the device under test (DUT). The dependences of SET characteristics on drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL) and the parasitic bipolar junction transistor (PBJT) are also discussed. These results provide a guide for radiation-hardened deep sub-micrometer PDSOI technology for space electronics applications.展开更多

There appears to be very little contribution from tropylium-type charge distribution, the positive charges residing largely in the nitrogen atoms. The partial bond fixations and charge distributions show interesting variation in the three isomers. The 1,3-isomer in which the 1,3-diazapentadienium element is preserved in the favoured zigzag conformation appears to be relatively the best stabilized. The six isomeric benzo-fused derivatives arising from the three amino-iminiotropylium cations show similar differences in patterns of behaviour. Interestingly, the isomer in which a zigzag 1,3-diazapentadienium element is conjugated with a styrene moiety receives the deepest stabilization. While showing that the element largely contributes to the relative stabilization among the systems studied, contribution from certain stereochemical destabilizing factors may not be insignificant.展开更多

The device is characterized by a charge island layer on the interface of the top silicon layer and the dielectric buried layer in which a series of equidistant high concentration n+-regions is inserted. Inversion holes resulting from the vertical electric field are located in the spacing between two neighbouring n+-regions on the interface by the force with ionized donors in the undepleted n+-regions, and therefore effectively enhance the electric field of the dielectric buried layer (Ei) and increase the breakdown voltage (BV), thereby alleviating the self-heating effect (SHE) by the silicon window under the source. An analytical model of the vertical interface electric field for the CI PSOI is presented and the analytical results are in good agreement with the 2D simulation results. The BV and El of the CI PSOI LDMOS increase to 631 V and 584 V/μm from 246 V and 85.8 V/μm for the conventional PSOI with a lower SHE, respectively. The effects of the structure parameters on the device characteristics are analysed for the proposed device in detail.展开更多

Based on the existing model (Shao J X, Chen X M and Ding B W 2007 Phys. Rev. A 75 012701) the effective charge of the projectile is introduced to theoretically estimate the value of R for the partially stripped ions impacting on helium atoms. The results calculated from our "effective charge" model are in good agreement with the experimental data, and the dependence of the effective charge on the ionization energy of the projectile is also discussed qualitatively.展开更多

A high concentration of charges accumulate on the interface, whose density changes with the negative drain voltage, which increase the electric field (Er) in the dielectric buried oxide layer (BOX) and modulate the electric field in drift region . This results in the enhancement of the breakdown voltage (BV). The values of E1 and BV of an HI PSOI with a 2-~m thick SOI layer over a 1-~tm thick buried layer are 580V/~m and -582 V, respectively, compared with 81.5 V/p.m and -123 V of a conventional PSOI. Furthermore, the Si window also alleviates the self-heating effect (SHE). Moreover, in comparison with the conventional device, the proposed device exhibits low on-resistance.展开更多

However, their degradation pathways are complicated due to the blended nature of the electrodes, with graphite and silicon degrading at different rates. Here, we develop a deep learning health diagnostic framework to rapidly quantify and separate the different degradation rates of graphite and silicon in composite anodes using partial charging data. The convolutional neural network (CNN), trained with synthetic data, uses experimental partial charging data to diagnose electrode-level health of tested batteries, with errors of less than 3.1% (corresponding to the loss of active material reaching ∼75%). Sensitivity analysis of the capacity-voltage curve under different degradation modes is performed to provide a physically informed voltage window for diagnostics with partial charging data. By using the gradient-weighted class activation mapping approach, we provide explainable insights into how these CNNs work;highlighting regions of the voltage-curve to which they are most sensitive. Robustness is validated by introducing noise to the data, with no significant negative impact on the diagnostic accuracy for noise levels below 10 mV, thus highlighting the potential for deep learning approaches in the diagnostics of lithium-ion battery performance under real-world conditions. The framework presented here can be generalised to other cell formats and chemistries, providing robust and explainable battery diagnostics for both conventional single material electrodes, but also the more challenging composite electrodes.展开更多
