Linearly variable ring spacings for the FLR termination are applied to improve the blocking voltage by reducing the peak surface electric field at the edge termination region, which acts like a variable lateral doping profile resulting in a gradual field distribution. The experimental results demonstrate a breakdown voltage of 5 kV at the reverse leakage current density of 2 mA/cm2 (about 80% of the theoretical value). Detailed numerical simulations show that the proposed termination structure provides a uniform electric field profile compared to the conventional FLR termi- nation, which is responsible for 45% improvement in the reverse blocking voltage despite a 3.7% longer total termination length.展开更多

The structure is characterized by the P-type layer formed in the n-type drift layer by epitaxial overgrowth process. The electric field and potential distribution are changed due to the buried P-layer, resulting in a high breakdown voltage (BV) and low specific on-resistance (Ron,sp). The influences of device parameters, such as the depth of the embedded P+ regions, the space between them and the doping concentration of the drift region, etc., on BV and Ron,sp are investigated by simulations, which provides a particularly useful guideline for the optimal design of the device. The results indicate that BV is increased by 48.5% and Baliga's figure of merit (BFOM) is increased by 67.9% compared to a conventional 4H-SiC JBSR.展开更多

The state functions and the discrete iterative map equations were established to analyze the dynamical phenomenon in the single phase H-bridge inverter. The dynamical characteristics of the single phase H- bridge inverter, such as time domain waveform diagram, bifurcation diagram, and folding map, were obtained by using the numerical calculation when the circuit parameters varied in specific range. Moreover, the simulation results were obtained by using the OrCAD-PSpice software to validate the numerical calculation. Both the numerical calculation and the circuit simulation show that the symmetrical dynamical phenomenon occurs in the single phase H-bridge inverter controlled by the peak current or the valley current.展开更多

The results of theoretical analysis and simula- tion show that the proposed method is effective in realtime detecting of instantaneous harmonic and reactive currents in single-phase circuits. When only detecting the total reactive currents, this method does not need a phase-locked loop circuit, and it also can be used in some special applications to provide different compensations on the ground of different requirements of electric network. Compared with the other methods based on the theory of instantaneous reactive power, this method is simple and easy to realize.展开更多

The stresses due to fluctuations are incorporated based on analogy to turbulent flows, as estimated using the depth-averaged k-? turbulence model and a modification component. A fully conservative numerical algorithm, using wellbalanced slope limited centred scheme, is deployed to solve the governing equations. The present quasi single-phase model using four closure relationships for the bed shear stresses is evaluated against USGS experimental debris flow and compared with traditional quasi single-phase models and a recent physically enhanced two-phase model. It is found that the present quasi single-phase model performs much better than the traditional models, and is attractive in terms of computational cost while the two-phase model performs even better appreciably.展开更多

Due to...A rectifier circuit for wireless energy harvesting(WEH) with a wide input power range is proposed in this paper. We build up accurate models of the diodes to improve the accuracy of the design of the rectifier. Due to the nonlinear characteristics of the diodes, a new band-stop structure is introduced to reduce the imaginary part impedance and suppress harmonics. A novel structure with double branches and an optimized λ/4 microstrip line is proposed to realize the power division ratio adjustment by the input power automatically. The proposed two branches can satisfy the two cases with input power of-20 dBm to 0 dBm and 0 dBm to 15 dBm, respectively. Here, dBm = 10 log(P mW), and P represents power. An impedance compression network(ICN) is correspondingly designed to maintain the input impedance stability over the wide input power range. A rectifier that works at 2.45 GHz is implemented. The measured results show that the highest efficiency can reach 51.5% at the output power of 0 dBm and higher than 40% at the input power of-5 dBm to 12 dBm.展开更多

文摘Thermal rectification is an exotic thermal transport phenomenon,an analog to electrical rectification,in which heat flux along one direction is larger than that in the other direction and is of significant interest in electronic device applications.However,achieving high thermal rectification efficiency or rectification ratio is still a scientific challenge.In this work,we performed a systematic simulation of thermal rectification by considering both efforts of thermal conductivity asymmetry and geometrical asymmetry in a multi-segment thermal rectifier.It is found that the high asymmetry of thermal conductivity and the asymmetry of the geometric structure of multi-segment thermal rectifiers can significantly enhance the thermal rectification,and the combination of both thermal conductivity asymmetry and geometrical asymmetry can further improve thermal rectification efficiency.This work suggests a possible way for improving thermal rectification devices by asymmetry engineering.

文摘The high quality single-phase solution of CO2/ Polystyrene was achieved,by analyzing the influential factors for polymer microcellular foaming extrusion.The curve of pressure distribution along the barrel was determined.The axial position of gas-injecting port on the barrel was chosen form the results of stable foaming,and the number of gas-injecting ports in the circumference of the barrel was determined from the CO2 solubility in polymer.The effect of the screw rotation speed on CO2 solubility was studied,and the effects of pressure difference between the gas and the polymer melt on gas-injecting process and on the foaming stability were investigated.The influence of the gas temperature before injection on the single-phase of CO2/Polystyrene solution also was studied.

文摘A depth-averaged quasi single-phase mixture model is proposed for debris flows over inclined bed slopes based on the shallow water hydrosediment-morphodynamic theory with multi grain sizes. The stresses due to fluctuations are incorporated based on analogy to turbulent flows, as estimated using the depth-averaged k-? turbulence model and a modification component. A fully conservative numerical algorithm, using wellbalanced slope limited centred scheme, is deployed to solve the governing equations. The present quasi single-phase model using four closure relationships for the bed shear stresses is evaluated against USGS experimental debris flow and compared with traditional quasi single-phase models and a recent physically enhanced two-phase model. It is found that the present quasi single-phase model performs much better than the traditional models, and is attractive in terms of computational cost while the two-phase model performs even better appreciably.

文摘A rectifier circuit for wireless energy harvesting(WEH) with a wide input power range is proposed in this paper. We build up accurate models of the diodes to improve the accuracy of the design of the rectifier. Due to the nonlinear characteristics of the diodes, a new band-stop structure is introduced to reduce the imaginary part impedance and suppress harmonics. A novel structure with double branches and an optimized λ/4 microstrip line is proposed to realize the power division ratio adjustment by the input power automatically. The proposed two branches can satisfy the two cases with input power of-20 dBm to 0 dBm and 0 dBm to 15 dBm, respectively. Here, dBm = 10 log(P mW), and P represents power. An impedance compression network(ICN) is correspondingly designed to maintain the input impedance stability over the wide input power range. A rectifier that works at 2.45 GHz is implemented. The measured results show that the highest efficiency can reach 51.5% at the output power of 0 dBm and higher than 40% at the input power of-5 dBm to 12 dBm.
