Passive protections against breakdowns between accelerating grids in SPIDER experiment

In the SPIDER experiment a ITER-like full size plasma source will be realized with the target to extract a Dˉ beam of 70 A and then to accelerate it to 100 keV energy. The reduction of the effects due to the frequent breakdowns between the accelerating grids is needed, because of grids damage due to energy deposition by arcing and strong electromagnetic noise (EMI) emission. The solution proposed is a comprehensive design of the circuit. Two passive components are installed: a Damping Resistor and an Output Filter in series to the Power Supplies. Then a doubled screened structure will be adopted for the 30 m long – 100 kV Transmission Line TL, which connects the Ion Source and Acceleration Power Supplies to their loads: the Inner Screen will be connected to the reference ground (the vessel) by a resistive link, the Outer Screen acting as a low-impedance ground. Finally, a Distributed Core Snubber DCS (magnetic snubber) will be installed onto the TL, aimed to increase the damping of the oscillations due to the stray inductances and capacitances. The DCS is composed of 10 magnetic alloy cores and is equipped by a biasing circuit to enhance the flux swing in unsaturated condition during the breakdown. A detailed model of the circuit is developed to evaluate the passive components parameters for protection against breakdown, in which all the magnetic and capacitive couplings between components are modeled as well as the magnetic core snubber saturation.     

Silver (Ag) as anode and cathode current collectors in high temperature planar solid oxide fuel cells

Planar electrolyte supported solid oxide fuel cells were operated at 900 °C with humidified H₂ for 200 h using silver mesh and paste for cathode current collection. Continuous potentiostatic tests at 0.7 V appeared to induce migration of Ag towards electrode-electrolyte interphase, while continuous OCV tests caused no mass transport. Similar SOFCs fueled by coal syngas at 850 °C using Ag for both anode and cathode current collection indicated little, if any, Ag migration; providing the possibility of employing Ag for 100 h laboratory scale tests using coal-derived syngas. Use of high temperature steam, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide did not result in the formation of silver carbonates.     

A novel magneto‐impedance sensor model based on the zeros of Bessel functions

Nowadays, the design of magneto‐impedance (MI) sensors requires the development of lumped circuit models that can be simulated through equivalent impedance circuits relied on Bessel functions. A new impedance model based on Senani's equivalent using the zeros of Bessel functions is developed in this paper. The model allows to describe the impedance as a transfer function that can be easily synthesized by means of current conveyor circuits and passive elements. The mathematical representation was verified under simulation of transfer functions involving different number of poles and zeros. Moreover, the model has been verified using SPICE simulations and measurement results from a fabricated prototype demonstrating its scope and validity. Finally, a study of finite tracking errors of CCIIs used in the implementation of magneto‐impedance sensor has been realized. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

基于不同自组装单层的酞菁氧钒薄膜晶体管

研究了不同界面修饰层对酞菁氧钒(VOPc)薄膜晶体管性能的影响。通过AFM图谱分析不同界面修饰层上VOPc薄膜的生长行为,通过半导体参数测试仪测试分析不同界面上器件的电学特性。实验结果表明,十八烷基三氯硅烷(OTS-18)修饰后生长的VOPc薄膜,比正辛基三氯硅烷(OTS-8)和苯基三氯硅烷(PTS)修饰后的薄膜晶体尺寸更大、质量更优;基于OTS-18修饰的底栅顶接触型VOPc有机薄膜晶体管,在4种结构器件中具有最高的场效应迁移率(0.51cm2/V·s),相对于未修饰的器件迁移率提高了近40倍。较长的烷基链能够有效地隔绝VOPc分子和二氧化硅之间的相互作用,利于形成大晶粒尺寸、少缺陷的优质薄膜,获得高迁移率的TFT器件。绝缘层表面自组装单分子层的厚度对其上薄膜的生长行为和相应器件的性能影响极为明显,这一结论对有机半导体薄膜生长和器件制备具有指导意义。
