The crystal structure and particle size distribution of the prepared samples were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and laser particle size analyzer, respectively. The results show that Sample B has more crystalline defects and smaller average diameter than Sample A. The cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements indicate that Sample B has better electrochemical performance than Sample A, such as better reaction reversibility, lower charge-transfer resistance and better cyclic stability. Proton diffusion coefficient of Sample B is 1.96×10-10cm2/s, which is two times as large as that (9.78×10-11cm2/s) of Sample A. The charge-discharge tests show that the discharge capacity (308 mA·h/g) of Sample B is 25 mA·h/g higher than that of Sample A (283 mA·h/g).展开更多

Over 20 samples are measured at room temperature with various electrodes, and the resulting curves are all similar in shape. When a voltage of about 560V is applied to the cBN crystal, the emitted light is visible to the naked eye in a dark room. We explain these phenomena by the space charge limited current and the electronic transition between the X and Г valleys of the conduction band.展开更多

We find that an obvious feature is to present itself the round peak for the specific heat with the temperature. This indicates unambiguously the presence of the phase transition in the system. The transition temperature plays down with increasing of the interchain coupling t2 or decreasing of the electron repulsion u. The curves of charge density with the temperature debase monotonously. This result illustrates that the higher the temperature is, the more electrons are excited.展开更多

The exerimental results show that the symmetric TiO2 membranes display better sintering activity in the air than in argon, and the mean pore diameters and porosities of the membrane sintered in argon are higher than those of the membrane sintered in the air at the same temperature. The surface compositions of the symmetric TiO2 membrane sintered in the air and in argon at different temperatures, as studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, are discussed in terms of their chemical composition, with particular emphasis on the valence state of the titanium ions. The correlation between the valence state of the titanium ions at the surface and the surface charge properties is examined.It is found that the presence of Ti^3+, introduced at the surface of the symmetric TiO2 membranes by sintering in a lower partial pressure of oxygen, is related to a significant decrease in the isoelectric point. TiO2 with Ti^4+ at the interface has an isoelectric point of 5.1, but the non-stoichiometric TiO2-x with Ti^3+ at the interface has a lower isoelectric point of 3.6.展开更多

Furthermore, the bulk modulus B increases, while the shear modulus G, elastic modulus E and anisotropie ratio A are reduced. The calculated Debye temperature of LaCuMg2 is lower, implying the weaker interaction between atoms in LaCuMg2. Then, the stress-strain curves in entire range and the ideal strength at critical strain are studied. The present results show that the lowest ideal tensile strength for LaMg3 and LaCuMg2 is in the 〈100〉 direction. The ideal shear strength on the 〈 1 ^-1 0〉(110) slip system of LaMg3 is greater than LaCuMg2. The density of states and charge density distribution are further studied to understand the inherent mechanism of the mechanical properties.展开更多

Two derivative parameters, the consumption of hydrogen ions by the soil and theacidtolerant limit as defined as the quantity of sulfuric acid required to bring the soil to PH 3.5 in a 0.00lmolLi ̄(-1) Ca(NO_3)_2 solution, were used. The sensitivity of variable charge soils was higher than that of constantcharge soils, due to the predominance of kaolinite in clay mineralogical composition. Among these soils thesensitivity was generally of the order lateritic red soil >red soil >latosol. For a given type of soil within thesame region the sensitivity was affected by parent material, due to differences in clay minerals and texture.The sensitivity of surface soil may be lower or higher than that of subsoil, depending on whether organicmatter or texture plays the dominant role in determining the buffering capacity. Paddy soils consnmedmore acid within lower range of acid input when compared with upland soils, due to the presence of moreexchangeable bases, but consumed less acid within higher acid input range, caused by the decrease in claycontent.展开更多

The objective of solving ELD problem is to allocate the generation output of the committed generating units. The main contribution of this work is to solve the ELD problem concerned with daily load pattern. The proposed solution technique, developed based PSO (particle swarm optimization) algorithm, is applied to search for the optimal schedule of all generations units that can supply the required load demand at minimum fuel cost while satisfying all unit and system operational constraints. The performance of the developed methodology is demonstrated by case studies in test system of six-generation units. The results obtained from the PSO are compared to those achieved from other approaches, such as QP (quadratic programming), and GA (genetic algorithm).展开更多

The cogeneration considered for this study is gas turbine based engine consists of variable stator vanes (VSVs) compressor that are re-staggered for loads greater than 50% to maintain the gas turbine exhaust gas temperature at the set value. In order to evaluate the exergetic performance of the cogeneration, exergy model of each cogeneration component is formulated. A 4.2 MW gas turbine based cogeneration plant is analysed for a wide range of part load operations including the effect of VSVs modulation. For loads less than 50%, the major exergy destruction contributors are the combustor and the loss with the stack gas. At full load, the exergy destructions in the combustor, turbine, heat recovery, compressor and the exergy loss with stack gas are 63.7, 14.1, 11.5, 5.7, and 4.9%, respectively. The corresponding first and second law cogeneration efficiencies are 78.5 and 45%, respectively. For comparison purpose both the first and second law efticiencies of each component are represented together. This analysis would help to identify the equipment where the potential for performance improvement is high, and trends which may aid in the design of future plants.展开更多

However, insufficient separation of charge carriers and weak CO2adsorption hamper the photocatalytic CO2 reduction activity. Herein, we tackle these challenges by introducing oxygen vacancies (OVs) on the two-dimensional Bi4Ti3O12ultrathin nanosheets via a combined hydrothermal and postreduction process. Selective photodeposition experiment of Pt over Bi4Ti3O12discloses that the ultrathin structure shortens the migration distance of photo-induced electrons from bulk to the surface, benefiting the fast participation in the CO2reduction reaction. The introduction of OVs on ultrathin Bi4Ti3O12 nanosheets leads to enormous amelioration on surface state and electronic structure, thereby resulting in enhanced CO2adsorption, photoabsorption and charge separation efficiency. The photocatalytic experiments uncover that ultrathin Bi4Ti3O12nanosheets with OVs reveal a largely enhanced CO2photoreduction activity for producing CO with a rate of 11.7 lmol g-1h-1in the gas–solid system, 3.2 times higher than that of bulk Bi4Ti3O12. This work not only yields efficient ultrathin photocatalysts with OVs, but also furthers our understanding on enhancing CO2reduction via cooperative tactics.展开更多

Two splits of PDA were performed in N2 ambient at 850°C/60 s and 1050°C/60 s, respectively. The 1050°C annealed capacitor could be programmed and erased normally by using Fowler-Nordheim (FN) injection. In contrast, the 850°C annealed device could not be erased, even though it could be programmed properly. By measuring the gate leakage current and the flatband voltage shift, we found the erase failure in the 850°C annealed device was due to a larger gate back-injection leakage current at Vg<0. The trend of gate leakage current was further verified in two Al/Al2O3/SiO2/p-Si control capacitors with the same PDA splits. In addition, constant voltage stress measurements on control capacitors in the FN regime showed that the change of gate leakage current followed an empirical Curie-von Schweidler law at Vg<0. The data pointed out the importance to further study the relation between PDA conditions and the defect generation properties in Al2O3 blocking layer.展开更多

文摘Abstract: With the substitution of part Mg in LaMg3 by Cu, the elastic constants CH and C12 increase while C44 decreases, implying an enhanced Poisson effect and smaller resistance to 〈001〉(100) shear. Furthermore, the bulk modulus B increases, while the shear modulus G, elastic modulus E and anisotropie ratio A are reduced. The calculated Debye temperature of LaCuMg2 is lower, implying the weaker interaction between atoms in LaCuMg2. Then, the stress-strain curves in entire range and the ideal strength at critical strain are studied. The present results show that the lowest ideal tensile strength for LaMg3 and LaCuMg2 is in the 〈100〉 direction. The ideal shear strength on the 〈 1 ^-1 0〉(110) slip system of LaMg3 is greater than LaCuMg2. The density of states and charge density distribution are further studied to understand the inherent mechanism of the mechanical properties.

The cogeneration considered for this study is gas turbine based engine consists of variable stator vanes (VSVs) compressor that are re-staggered for loads greater than 50% to maintain the gas turbine exhaust gas temperature at the set value.

文摘We have investigated the effect of post deposition annealing (PDA) temperature of Al2O3 blocking layer on the performance of charge trapping memory capacitors. Two splits of PDA were performed in N2 ambient at 850°C/60 s and 1050°C/60 s, respectively. The 1050°C annealed capacitor could be programmed and erased normally by using Fowler-Nordheim (FN) injection. In contrast, the 850°C annealed device could not be erased, even though it could be programmed properly. By measuring the gate leakage current and the flatband voltage shift, we found the erase failure in the 850°C annealed device was due to a larger gate back-injection leakage current at Vg<0. The trend of gate leakage current was further verified in two Al/Al2O3/SiO2/p-Si control capacitors with the same PDA splits. In addition, constant voltage stress measurements on control capacitors in the FN regime showed that the change of gate leakage current followed an empirical Curie-von Schweidler law at Vg<0. The data pointed out the importance to further study the relation between PDA conditions and the defect generation properties in Al2O3 blocking layer.
