As Po2 increases from 10% to 30%, it is found that the device shows enhanced bias stress stability with significantly reduced threshold voltage drift under positive gate bias stress. Based on the x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurement, the concentration of oxygen vacancies (Or) within the a-IGZO layer is suppressed by increasing Po2. Meanwhile, the low-frequency noise analysis indicates that the average trap density near the channel/dielectric interface continuously drops with increasing Po2. Therefore, the improved interface quality with increasing Po2 during the channel layer deposition can be attributed to the reduction of interface Ov-related defects, which agrees with the enhanced bias stress stability of the a-IGZO TFTs.展开更多

The composition and phase structure of the oxide films were analyzed by energydispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The anti-cokingperformance of a mini tube made of a HP40 (25Cr35Ni) alloy was evaluated on a bench scale pyrolysis and coking test unit.The results showed that the surface Fe and Ni content decreased after the oxidation of the two alloys in a low oxygen partialpressure atmosphere. The oxide films were mainly composed of MnCr_(2)O_(4) and Cr_(2)O_(3). The average mass of coke in the minitube with oxide film decreased by 87% relative to that of a tube without an oxide film when the cracking temperature was 900℃. The ethylene, propylene, and butadiene yields in the pyrolysis tests were almost the same for the mini tubes withand without an oxide film. The oxide film on the alloy surface effectively inhibited catalytic filamentous coke formation.An industrial test showed that the run length of the cracking furnace with the in-situ coating technology was significantlyextended.展开更多

However, the standard PaO2 value in obese patients in the supine position is unknown. We evaluated the PaO2 with respect to the Broca-Katsura obesity index. Materials and Methods: From January 2001 to December 2013, we evaluated 472 patients aged ≥16 years old that underwent general anesthesia in the supine position. The anesthetic charts of 472 patients with an American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status of I or II were retrospectively reviewed to investigate the PaO2. Results: In patients aged 16 to 2 was 165.7 ± 25.6 mmHg at a Broca-Katsura index of 2 was 152.1 ± 23.8 mmHg at a Broca-Katsura index of 2 tended to decrease with age from 16 to 2 tended to decrease with age from 16 to <65 years at a Broca-Katsura index of 20% to <40%.展开更多

The in situ ulnar bone marrow partial pressure of oxygen (PbO2) was determined in vivo before, during and after irradiation respectively. The bone marrow sections in the same part were observed. Our results showed that the normal murine ulnar PbO2 was 12.72±1. 05kpa. During irradiation, the level of PbO2 decreased to 10. 78±1. 17 kpa (P<0. 001). And 3 days after irradiation, PbO2 decreased to 9. 75±0. 52 kpa, suggesting that the commonly used 'blood-activating and stasis-eliminating' Chinese drugs could promote the rehabilitation and proliferation of bone marrow microvessels in the acute radiation injured mice, expand their areas, increase the oxygen supply of bone marrow microenviroment, thereby leading to PbO2 much higher increase than that of control group. It is also helpful in the proliferation and rehabilitation of hematopoietic cells.展开更多

OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of moderate hypothermia on cerebral oxygenation of animals with acute intracranial hypertension, and further investigate the protective mechanism of moderate hypothermia. DESIGN: A randomized controlled trial. SETTING: Department of Neurosurgery, Renji Hospital affiliated to the Medical College of Shanghai Jiao Tong University. MATERIALS: Twenty healthy little pigs, either male or female, weighing 4.5-5.5 kg, were used. Neurotrend-typed multiparameter monitoring system (Diametrics Company, British); CMA/100 micro-injection pump (Carnegie Company, Sweden). METHODS: The experiment was conducted in the Changzheng Hospital affiliated to the Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA in November, 2001. The pigs were randomized into two groups: the normothermia group (control group, n =10) and moderate hypothermia group (n =10). ① Bilateral femoral arteries were separated, one was connected to pressometer for monitoring mean arterial pressure (MEP), and the other for analysis of blood gases [including peripheral blood pH value, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), HCO3-]. ② Rectal temperature was monitored with mercurial thermometer. ③ Intracranial pressure was monitored using Camino optic ICP probe placed in the subdural space. ④ Neurotrend multiparameter monitoring sensor was inserted into the white matter for about 4 cm to determine cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP, CPP=MAP(ICP), brain tissue partial oxygen pressure (PO2), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2), HCO3- and brain temperature. The rectal temperature of animals in the moderate hypothermia group was lowered to 34 ℃ using ice bags, and the body temperature was maintained at 33-35 ℃ for 2 hours. The changes of the parameters were observed continuously, and the pigs in the normothermia group were not treated with cooling. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① MAP, ICP, rectal temperature, CCP; Indexes of cerebral oxygenation detected with Neurotrend-typed multiparameter monitoring system; ② Results of blood gases analysis in the moderate hypothermia group. RESULTS: All the 20 pigs were involved in the analysis of results. ① MAP, ICP, rectal temperature, CCP and indexes of cerebral oxygenation: In the moderate hypothermia group, the ICP after cooling was obviously lower than that before cooling [(3.31±1.19), (5.33±0.95) kPa, P 〈 0.05], CCP was higher, brain tissue PCO2 [(12.03±1.73), (10.59±2.01) kPa, P 〈 0.05], and brain tissue pH value was higher [(7.03± 1.63), (9.40±1.30) kPa, P 〈 0.05], whereas the brain temperature was decreased as compared with that before cooling [(34.9±0.3), (37.2±0.2) ℃, P 〈 0.05]. ② Results of blood gases analysis in the moderate hypothermia group: There were no significant differences in the parameters of peripheral arterial blood gases analysis before and after cooling in the moderate hypothermia group (P 〉 0.05) CONCLUSION: Moderate hypothermia will not impair the cerebral oxygenation, and it can reduce brain tissue CO2 and decrease brain tissue acidosis.展开更多

With the oxygen ratio increasing, the structure of films changes from zinc and zinc oxide coexisting phase to single-phase ZnO and finally to the highly (002) orientation. Both the grain size and the stress of ZnO film vary with the oxygen partial pressure. Upon increasing the oxygen partial pressure in the growing ambient, the visible emission in the room-temperature photoluminescence spectra was suppressed without sacrificing the band- edge emission intensity in the ultraviolet region. The peaks of photoluminescence spectra were located at 3.06—3.15 eV. Prom optical transmittance spectra of ZnO films, the optical band gap edge was observed to shift towards shorter wavelength with the increase of oxygen partial pressure.展开更多

The oxidized samples were characterized by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and scratch tester to obtain the oxide phases, morphology, thickness, composition and adhesion property of the oxide scales. The experiment results indicated that a small amount of Ce addition (0.02 wt.% or 0.05 wt.%) promoted oxidation resistance and inhibited the growth of the needlelike oxide. The Ce addition also decreased the formation of MnCr2O4 but promoted the SiO2 formation un-derneath the Cr2O3, which largely contributed to the improvement of oxide scale spallation resistance. For the sample with 0.3 wt.% Ce addi-tion, the oxidation rate significantly increased and the spallation resistance of the oxide scale decreased.展开更多

The equilibrated phases and their compositions of the quenched samples were analyzed by using SEM/EPMA (Scanning Electron Microscope/Electron Probe Micro Analysis) and XRD (X Ray Diffraction). The phase equilibrium results include two cases, the two phase coexistence and the three-phase coexistence in the high Al2O3 region with oxygen partial pressure of either 10.13 Pa or 1.01 × 10^-3 Pa. Effects of oxygen partial pressure and temperature on the liquidus along the primary phase fields of CaO · Al2O3 and CaO · 2Al2O3 were nota hle. With the decrease of oxygen partial pressure, the liquid area expands and the liquidus of CaO · Al2O3 and CaO · 2Al2O3 primary fields moves to the Al2O3-FeOx region. On the other hand, the liquid area of CaO Al2O3-FeOx sys tem extends extremely to the high Al2O3 region with the temperature increasing from 1 400 to 1 500℃, especially at lower oxygen partial pressure. The present experiment results are in good agreement with the calculated ones by FactSage.展开更多

As Po2 increases from 10% to 30%, it is found that the device shows enhanced bias stress stability with significantly reduced threshold voltage drift under positive gate bias stress. Based on the x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurement, the concentration of oxygen vacancies (Or) within the a-IGZO layer is suppressed by increasing Po2. Meanwhile, the low-frequency noise analysis indicates that the average trap density near the channel/dielectric interface continuously drops with increasing Po2. Therefore, the improved interface quality with increasing Po2 during the channel layer deposition can be attributed to the reduction of interface Ov-related defects, which agrees with the enhanced bias stress stability of the a-IGZO TFTs.

The experiment results indicated that a small amount of Ce addition (0.02 wt.% or 0.05 wt.%) promoted oxidation resistance and inhibited the growth of the needlelike oxide. The Ce addition also decreased the formation of MnCr2O4 but promoted the SiO2 formation un-derneath the Cr2O3, which largely contributed to the improvement of oxide scale spallation resistance. For the sample with 0.3 wt.% Ce addi-tion, the oxidation rate significantly increased and the spallation resistance of the oxide scale decreased.

文摘A high temperature equilibration experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of oxygen partial pres- sure on the phase equilibria and liquidus in CaO-Al2O3- FeOx system with the intermediate oxygen partial pressures of 10.13 Pa and 1.01 × 10^-3 Pa. The equilibrated phases and their compositions of the quenched samples were analyzed by using SEM/EPMA (Scanning Electron Microscope/Electron Probe Micro Analysis) and XRD (X Ray Diffraction). The phase equilibrium results include two cases, the two phase coexistence and the three-phase coexistence in the high Al2O3 region with oxygen partial pressure of either 10.13 Pa or 1.01 × 10^-3 Pa. Effects of oxygen partial pressure and temperature on the liquidus along the primary phase fields of CaO · Al2O3 and CaO · 2Al2O3 were nota hle. With the decrease of oxygen partial pressure, the liquid area expands and the liquidus of CaO · Al2O3 and CaO · 2Al2O3 primary fields moves to the Al2O3-FeOx region. On the other hand, the liquid area of CaO Al2O3-FeOx sys tem extends extremely to the high Al2O3 region with the temperature increasing from 1 400 to 1 500℃, especially at lower oxygen partial pressure. The present experiment results are in good agreement with the calculated ones by FactSage.

文摘The aim of this paper was to explore the relationship between energy metabolism and the meridian phenomenon.The manner of change of oxygen partial pressure in acupoints and no-acupoints of the urinary bladder meridian of goats was observed with a needle-type tissue oxygen tension sensor after the acupuncture effect was blocked by Ca^(2+) complexation with ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid(EDTA)-Na2.The results showed that:(1)the concentration of calcium ion in urinary bladder meridian acupoints was higher than that in no-acupoints(P<0.01 or P<0.05);(2)the tissue oxygen tension in urinary bladder meridian acupoints was higher than that in no-acupoints(P<0.01);(3)the oxygen partial pressure in acupoints decreased significantly after injection with EDTA-Na2,compared with injection of either normal sodium or nothing(P<0.01);(4)the oxygen partial pressure in acupoints was higher than that in no-acupoints after EDTA-Na2 injection(P<0.01).Acupuncture could reduce oxygen partial pressure in acupoints by regulating microcirculation and increasing metabolic levels.
