Low Thermal Conductivity and Enhanced Thermoelectric Performance in In and Lu Double-Filled CoSb<Subscript>3</Subscript> Skutterudites

The thermoelectric properties of indium (In) and lutetium (Lu) double-filled skutterudites In _x Lu _y Co₄Sb₁₂ prepared by high-pressure synthesis were investigated in detail from 4 K to 365 K. Our results indicate that In and Lu double filling can remarkably reduce the thermal conductivity, and substantially improve the thermoelectric performance. A thermoelectric figure of merit of ZT = 0.27 for In_0.13Lu_0.05Co_4.02Sb₁₂ was achieved at 365 K, being larger by one order of magnitude than that for CoSb₃. It is thought that the large difference in resonance frequencies of the In and Lu elements broadens the range of normal phonon scattering in the multifilled skutterudites, helping to achieve an even lower lattice thermal conductivity. This investigation suggests that an effective way to improve the thermoelectric performance of skutterudite materials is to use In and Lu double filling.

Design and experimental implementation of an electromagnetic engine valve drive

In conventional internal combustion engines, engine valve displacements are fixed relative to crankshaft position. If these valves were actuated as a variable function of crankshaft angle, significant improvements in fuel economy could be achieved. To this end, a new type of electromagnetic valve drive system (EMVD) for internal combustion engines was more recently proposed. This EMVD incorporates a disk cam with a very desirable nonlinear profile which that functions as a nonlinear mechanical transformer. Modeling and simulation results showed significant advantages of this EMVD over previously designed electromagnetic engine valve drives. In this articles, we describe an experimental implementation of the proposed EMVD, which was developed to confirm these benefits. The EMVD apparatus was designed, constructed, and integrated into a computer-controlled experimental test stand. The experimental results confirm the benefits of using a nonlinear mechanical transformer in a motordriven engine-valve spring system, as seen in the small average power consumption and low valve seating velocity. In addition, a valve transition time sufficient for 6000-rpm engine operation was achieved. The results also suggest ways to improve the EMVD apparatus in the future.     

High-speed active-input cascode current mirror

A high-speed active-input cascode current mirror is presented. The proposed configuration combines a high output impedance with the high-frequency performance of a source- or emitter-driven active-input topology. Simulation results in a 0.35 /spl mu/m SiGe BiCMOS are presented to demonstrate the validation of the proposed current mirror. A much higher (about 30 to 40 times) output impedance is achieved, with no degradation in the high-frequency behaviour compared to conventional emitter-driven active-input current mirrors, without increasing the power consumption. The proposed configuration can be applied to both bipolar and CMOS technology.

Photocurable 3D Printing of High Toughness and Self-Healing Hydrogels for Customized Wearable Flexible Sensors

Currently, most customized hydrogels can only be processed via extrusion-based 3D printing techniques, which is limited by printing efficiency and resolution. Here, a simple strategy for the rapid fabrication of customized hydrogels using a photocurable 3D printing technique is presented. This technique has been rarely used because the presence of water increases the molecular distance between the polymer chains and reduces the monomer polymerization rate, resulting in the failure of rapid solid-liquid separation during printing. Although adding cross-linkers to printing inks can effectively accelerate 3D cross-linked network formation, chemical cross-linking may result in reduced toughness and self-healing ability of the hydrogel. Therefore, an interpenetrated-network hydrogel based on non-covalent interactions is designed to form physical cross-links, affording fast solid-liquid separation. Poly(acrylic acid (AA)-N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (NVP)) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) are cross-linked via Zn²⁺-ligand coordination and hydrogen bonding; the resulting mixed AA-NVP/CMC solution is used as the printing ink. The printed poly(AA-NVP/CMC) hydrogel exhibited high tensile toughness (3.38 MJ m⁻³) and superior self-healing ability (healed stress: 81%; healed strain: 91%). Some objects like manipulator are successfully customized by photocurable 3D printing using hydrogels with high toughness and complex structures. This high-performance hydrogel has great potential for application in flexible wearable sensors.
