Based on the work, this paper describes a tubid water experiment within a typical excavated harbour basin. According to the experimental results some expressions for predicting the average siltation amount for semi-closed harbour basins by means of dimensional analysis have been proposed, with tidal features, harbour geometry and properties of sediment taken into account. Through comparing the calculated results with the laboratory and field measured data, it has been shown that the expressions presented in this paper are reasonable.展开更多

The area for finding the solution is a circular area with a circular arc with the openingangle 60°-being the open boundary and the other circular arc being the solid wall boundary.Proceeding from the reestablished elliptic partial differential equation satisfied by the tidallevel function, the extended spectrum method was used to derive the general solution of the equationfor the sea of constant depth, and the impermeable solid wall condition (the second class boundarycondition) and the adequately specified open boundary conditions were then applied to determine theundetermined coefficients of the general solution, thus obtaining the tidal level distributionfunction. In this way, both the first and second class boundary values at the solid wall boundarywere obtained. With the above boundary values as the boundary conditions, the tidal level values atthe open boundary were then inversed by means of the general solution of tidal wave equation. Thevalidity of inversion method could be verified by comparing the inversed tidal level distributionswith the originally specified open boundary values.展开更多

The optical characteristics of the Zn-diffused InP layer for the planar-type InGaAs/InP PIN photodetectors grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) has been investigated by photoluminescence (PL) measurements. The temperature-dependent PL spectrum of Zn-diffused InP samples at different diffusion temperatures showed that band-to-acceptor transition dominates the PL emission, which indicates that Zn was commendably diffused into InP layer as the acceptor. High quality Zn-diffused InP layer with typically smooth surface was obtained at 580 ℃for 10 min. Furthermore, more interstitial Zn atoms were activated to act as acceptors after a rapid annealing process. Based on the above Zn-diffusion technique, a 50μm planar-type InGaAs/InP PIN photodector device was fabricated and exhibited a low dark current of 7.73 pA under a reverse bias potential of -5 V and a high break- down voltage of larger than 41 V (1 〈 10μA). In addition, a high responsivity of 0.81 A/W at 1.31/~m and 0.97 A/W at 1.55μm was obtained in the developed PIN photodetector.展开更多
