Possible tactics to improve the growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes by chemical vapor deposition

The growth time, growth mode and the method of preparing the supported catalysts play an important role in the growth of single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs). Their effects on the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of SWNTs with MgO-supported catalysts were investigated in this study. It is shown that the growth rate of SWNTs was large during the initial few minutes of growth, however the quality of the tubes was low owing to the formation of many defects. Long term growth may favor the formation of tubes with high quality and high yield, but the introduction of other forms of carbon (impurities) is also unavoidable. There was a balance between the increase in yield and quality and sacrifice of the purity during growth of SWNTs. MgO-supported catalysts prepared by the co-precipitation method were found to be more effective for the synthesis of SWNTs than those prepared by the widely used impregnation method. The size and dispersion state of the catalyst were found to be crucial in enhancing the growth of SWNTs. In addition, growth on the surface of SWNTs over nanosized catalyst films was shown to be more favorable for the synthesis of tube products with higher quality, yield and purity.     

A new simplified two-dimensional model for the threshold voltage ofMOSFET's with nonuniformly doped substrate

A new simplified two-dimensional model for the threshold voltage of MOSFETs is derived in terms of simple characteristic functions. These characteristic functions are transformed from the exact series solution of the two-dimensional Poisson's equation, in which the effects of a nonuniformly doped substrate and a finite graded source-drain junction depth are included. In this model, charge-screening effects are proposed to account for the weak dependence of the threshold voltage on the substrate bias for short-channel MOSFETs, and exact source and drain boundary potentials can be approximated by their equivalent power functions. The accuracy of the simplified 2-D model is verified by 2-D numerical analysis. Moreover, comparisons between the simplified 2-D model and the experimental results are made, and good agreement is obtained for wide ranges of channel lengths, applied substrate, and drain biases

一种改进的运动补偿三维小波视频编码方法

Choi等[1]提出的运动补偿三维子带编码方法是一种具有代表性的高效小波视频编码方法,其编码效率优于国际标准MPEG-2.但是该方法的运算复杂度高,编码时也没有充分利用小波图像的特点.为此,本文对该方法的两项关键技术进行了改进:采用像素域降采样运动估计技术以降低运算复杂度,采用改进的集分裂分层树(Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees,SPIHT)方法对三维时/空子带进行更高效的编码.实验结果表明,与原有的算法相比,本文的工作不仅降低了运算复杂度,也进一步提高了编码效率.     

Network model approach for calculating oscillating frequency of thermoacoustic prime mover

The network model is given and used to calculate the oscillating frequency of thermoacoustic prime mover. Theoretically calculated frequency by the model is plural, whose real part denotes actual frequency of the system, and imaginary part means attenuation coefficient of acoustic pressure. Numerical calculation is made under different conditions including different acoustic cavities, spacing between each parallel plate, gas pressures and system lengths. Theoretically calculated frequency and experimentally measured frequency are in quite good agreement.     

One-, two-, and three-photon pumped lasing in a novel liquid dye salt system

We report the observation of one-, two-, and three-photon pumped lasing in the same medium, a novel liquid dye salt system when excited by pulsed 0.532-, 1.06-, and /spl sim/1.49-/spl mu/m coherent radiation pulses, respectively. Since the gain medium is a liquid and not a solution, it contains a significantly higher effective dye concentration and, therefore, is highly suitable for multiphoton pumped lasing and optical power limiting applications. The lasing spectra, temporal waveforms, near- and far-field intensity distributions, and output/input efficiency were measured under the conditions of one-, two-, and three-photon pump configurations.     

Microstructure and thermal behavior of Sn-Zn-Ag solders

The microstructure and thermal behavior of the Sn-Zn-Ag solder were investigated for 8.73–9% Zn and 0–3.0% Ag. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis shows the Ag-Zn compound when the solder contains 0.1% Ag. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis results indicate that Ag₅Zn₈ and AgZn₃ become prominent when the Ag content is 0.3% and above. Meanwhile, the Zn-rich phase is refined, and the Zn orientations gradually diminish upon increase in Ag content. The morphology of the Ag-Zn compound varies from nodular to dendrite structure when the Ag content increases. The growth of the Ag-Zn compounds is accompanied by the diminishing of the eutectic structure of the Sn-9Zn solder. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) investigation reveals that the solidus temperature of these solders exists at around 198°C. A single, sharp exothermic peak was found for the solders with Ag content less than 0.5%. Liquidus temperatures were identified with the DSC analysis to vary from 206°C to 215°C when the Ag content ranges from 1.0% to 3.0%
