By introducing Bphen as a buffer layer with thicknes from 0 to 2.5 nm, the power conversion efficiency of the OPV cell based on copper phthalocyanine （CuPc） and C60 was increased from 0.87% to 2.25% under AM 1.5 solar illumination at an intensity of 100 mW/cm^2, which was higher than that of bathocuproine used as a buffer layer. The photocurrent-voltage characteristics showed that Bphen effectively improves electron transport through C60 layer into Ag electrode and leads to balance charge carrier transport capability. The influence of Bphen thickness on OPV cells was also investigated. Furthermore, the absorption spectrum shows that an additional Bphen layer enhances the light harvest capability of CuPc/C60.展开更多

Three important indices that control the typical failures of the paving layerare the maximum tensile stress of paving layer, the maximum shear stress between the steel deck andthe paving layer, and the maximum deflection on the paving surface. In this paper, the analyticalmodel of paving systems on orthotropic steel bridge deck is established, and the finite elementmethod is adopted to study the stress and strain of paving system. With the variation of asphaltconcrete modulus in high or low temperature season, the influences of paving layer thickness onthree control indices are researched. The results provide a theoretical basis for the determinationof thickness of the paving layer on the steel bridge deck.展开更多

In order to ensure navigation safety and master the steel plate thickness in service ship,thickness of the ship steel plate must be tested periodically by a scientific method. After consideration of an actual situation of thickness measurement,the bearing mechanism of ultrasonic thickness meter probe has been designed on the basis of wall-climbing robot,and preliminary experiments have been carried out. The device is mainly used for thickness measurement of a large area of ship hull plate when the docking ship has been sandblasted. Efficiency and safety can be improved to finish thickness measurement by using the device.展开更多

The yam flour was produced with different slice thickness of 1, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 5 cm using both conventional sun drying method and oven drying at temperatures; 40 ~C, 50 ~C, 60 ~C and 70 ~C. The moisture content of all the yam flour samples increased with increasing yam slice thickness, with the samples sun dried having the lowest values （6.20%-6.87%） followed by those dried at 70 ~C and then 60 ~C. The protein content of the yam flour samples increased with increase in slice thickness and decreased with increase in drying temperatures while the fat and the crude fibre of all the yam flour samples decreased with increase in slice thickness. The water absorption capacity of the sun dried yam flour samples decreased with increase in slice thickness while the syneresis value, bulk density and the gel strength increased with increase in slice thickness for all drying temperatures and for sun dried yam flour samples but smaller slice thickness had higher swelling capacity.展开更多

The results show that the initial density and thickness of the targets will affect the formation of the acceleration sheath fields in the target normal direction. For the same target thickness, using lower density target materials can obtain a higher proton maximum energy. However, lower density targets tend to be deformed due to the shock waves launched by the laser pulses, making the proton spatial distribution more divergent.展开更多
