Attraction and Repulsion of Nucleons: Sources of Stellar Energy

The potential energy of a nuclide is enhanced by about 10 MeV per nucleon from the repulsion between like nucleons, and diminished by about 20 MeV per nucleon from the attraction between unlike nucleons. Nuclear stability results mostly from the interplay of these opposing forces, plus Coulomb repulsion of positive charges. Whereas fusion may be the primary mechanism by which first generation stars produce energy, repulsion between like nucleons may cause neutron emission from the collapsed core (neutron star) produced in a terminal supernova explosion and initiate luminosity in second generation stars that accrete on such objects. As noted earlier [1], the scarcity of solar neutrinos, the enrichment of light isotopes in the solar wind, and the presence of abundant short-lived nuclides and interlinked chemical and isotopic heterogeneities in the early solar system might also be explained if the Sun formed in this manner.     

反应物量对纳米晶Fe_3Al组织和性能的影响

利用铝热反应熔化方法分别在反应物量为50、100、200g的条件下制备了块体纳米晶Fe3Al材料,通过TEM和XRD研究了材料的晶粒尺寸,并研究了材料室温压缩性能和硬度。结果表明,所制备的材料主要由非晶和纳米晶组织组成,当反应物量增大,部分区域甚至出现微米晶组织。反应物量为50g时Fe3Al材料中非晶较多,不存在微米晶;反应物量为100g时主要以纳米晶为主,非晶数量减少,伴随有少量的微米晶出现;反应物量为200g时,材料以纳米晶为主,微米晶数量较100g时有所增加。随着反应物量的增加,纳米晶相的平均晶粒尺寸增加,屈服强度和硬度呈先增大后减小的趋势。

A new method for estimating initial rotor phase of self‐excited hybrid‐field synchronous motors

This paper proposes a new method for properly estimating the rotor initial phase (i.e., the position) of the newly emerging self‐excited hybrid‐field synchronous motors (SelE‐HFSMs), which have the rotor held by both a permanent magnet and a diode‐shorted held winding. The proposed method injects a spatially rotating high‐frequency voltage and detects the rotor phase directly by evaluating the norm of the associated current. The method is very simple, but has a high degree of usability. 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Improve on/off ratio of organic heterojunction transistors by adopting single-sandwich configuration

Organic heterojunction transistors (OHJTs) based on 5,5′″-bis(naphtha-2-yl)-2,2′:5″,2′″-quaterthiophene (NaT₄)/copper-hexadecafluoro-phthalocyanine (F₁₆CuPc) heterojunction were fabricated in single-sandwich and sandwich configurations, respectively. All the devices operated in depletion-accumulation (normally-on) mode. High field-effect mobility of 0.35 cm²/Vs was obtained for all devices, which was higher than that, 0.20 cm²/Vs of the devices with NaT₄ as active layer. The on/off ratio of 1 × 10⁵ was obtained for OHJTs with single-sandwich configuration, which is three orders of magnitude higher than that of OHJTs with sandwich configuration. Compared with OHJTs with sandwich configuration, the higher on/off ratio was mainly determined by the lower off state current in OHJTs with single-sandwich configuration. In OHJTs with single-sandwich configuration, the well-type shield effect of the source and drain electrodes caused a very narrow empty region in F₁₆CuPc film, which is responsible for the lower off state current.     

New Linkage with Linear Actuator for Tracking PV Systems with Large Angular Stroke

This paper focuses on the development of an optimized photovoltaic tracking system involving low-cost, relative simple mechanisms, with linear actuators able to insure strokes comparable with those resulted when using gear rotary actuators. Starting with a rhombus linkage, with a linear actuator on the diagonal used for the elevation motion till 90°, a new performance solution is generated. This new linkage allows large angular strokes by using an asymmetric rhombus and an eccentrically positioned linear ac...

Electrochemical analysis of dye adsorption on aligned carbon nanofiber arrays coated with TiO2 nanoneedles for dye-sensitized solar cell

An electrochemical method has been developed to analyze dye absorption on the aligned carbon nanofiber arrays coated with TiO2 nanoneedles for dyesensitized solar cell. The unique nanostructure with the roughness factor of 90.6 provides a large effective surface area for dye adsorption. The experimental results showed that the dye molecules cover 39.7% of the TiO2 surface area which influences the performance of dye-sensitized solar cell. The electrochemical method provides the information of the coverage of dye molecules which is a key issue to optimize solar cell performance.
