Co-precipitation synthesis of ZnAl2O4: Cr3+ phosphor for better light penetration in pc-LED

Cr doped ZnAl₂O₄ spinel samples were prepared by the traditional solid state reaction and co-precipitation synthetic route, and the results suggest that the co-precipitation method has some superiority in contrast to the solid state reaction method. XRD, FT-IR, and XPS spectra confirmed that the well-crystallized spinel cubic phase of ZnAl₂O₄: Cr³⁺ samples were successfully formed. The morphology of the samples was investigated by FE-SEM and FE-TEM, and the results show that the samples by the co-precipitation route can generate a smaller size of particles compared to the solid state reaction. Photoluminescence excitation spectra monitored at 686 nm are comprised of two broad excitation bands near 530 nm and 395 nm, and the emission spectra show emissions ranging from 640 to 780 nm, due to the ²E?→?⁴A₂ spin-forbidden transition of Cr³⁺ ions in spinel lattices. The optimized concentration monitored at 686 nm is 1%, while at 693 nm is 3.5%. Compared with the samples by solid state reaction method, the samples by co-precipitation method show preferable luminescent properties, such as the higher photoluminescence intensity and higher quantum efficiency. Several phosphor-converted LEDs were to investigate the applicability of the prepared samples. The results confirm that the phosphor has potential applications in plant growth and supplementing the red region in white-LEDs and the phosphors prepared by co-precipitation are more suitable to be used in phosphor-converted LED devices due to their preferable luminescent properties.

     

基于超声导波SC-DTW的金属板微损检测方法

针对金属板材的质量控制与服役性能评估问题,在对金属板材微损伤进行超声导波检测的基础上,结合形状上下文(shape context,SC)与动态时间规整方法对其损伤劣化程度进行量化评估.该方法以无损Lamb波信号为基准,采用动态时间规划(dynamic time warping,DWT)算法对损伤信号进行相似匹配分析对比,确定基准信号与损伤信号的最佳匹配路径.引入SC的轮廓识别方法对Lamb波的局部波形信息进行统计分析,以波形形状距离代替传统欧氏距离匹配方法,解决DTW相似匹配中的病态对齐问题.最后,将无损Lamb波与损伤Lamb波信号间SC-DTW匹配距离作为损伤程度的量化指标,采用随机闭合裂纹的有限元仿真模型和铝板弯折实验对所提出方法进行验证,结果表明,基于Lamb波SC-DTW的损伤量化指数对铝板早期裂纹具有较高的敏感性和较好的量化表征能力.该方法无需对波包进行识别,也不必进行复杂的特征提取,具有简单高效和抗噪声能力强等优点,在金属板服役性能评估与质量控制中有较好的实用性和推广价值.
