For achieving direct integration, a barrier layer is essential to be inserted between LIB and the substrate for blocking Li^＋ diffusion. In this paper, the feasibility of thermal SiOa film as the barrier layer is investigated by electrochemical characterization and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS）. Due to the negligible side reactions of thermal SiO2 with electrolyte, the solid electrolyte interphase （SEI） layer formed on the surface of the barrier layer is thin and the SEI content mainly consists of hydrocarbon together with slight polyethylene oxide （PEO）, LixPOyFz, and Li2CO3. Although 8-nm thermal SiO2 effectively prevents the substrate from alloying with Li^＋, the whole film changes to Li silicate after electrochemical cycling due to the irreversible chemical reactions of SiO2 with electrolyte. This degrades the performance of the barrier layer against the electrolyte penetration, thus leading to the existence of Li^＋ （in the form of F-Si-Li） and solvent decompositions （with the products of hydrocarbon and PEO） near the barrier layer/substrate interface. Moreover, it is found that the reaction kinetics of thermal SiO2 with electrolyte decrease significantly with increasing the SiO2 thickness and no reactions are found in the bulk of the 30-nm SiO2 film. Therefore, thermal SiO2 with an appropriate thickness is a promising barrier layer for direct integration.展开更多

WCDA is aimed at the study of TeV γ-rays. In order to evaluate the prospects of searching for TeV γ-ray sources with WCDA, we present a projection of the one-year sensitivity of WCDA to TeV γ-ray sources from TeVCat using an all-sky approach. Out of 128 TeVCat sources observable by WCDA up to a zenith angle of 45°, we estimate that 42 would be detectable in one year of observations at a median energy of 1 TeV. Most of them are Galactic sources, and the extragalactic sources are Active Galactic Nuclei(AGN).展开更多

National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS) has a program of fabricating high-purityV-4Cr-4Ti alloys. The resulting products (NIFS-HEAT-1,2), were characterized by various researchgroups in the world including Chinese partners. South Western Institute of Physics (SWIP) fabricateda new V-4Cr-4Ti alloy (SWIP-Heat), and carried out a comparative evaluation of hydrogenembrittlement of NIFS-HEATs and SWIP-Heat. The tensile test of hydrogen-doped alloys showed that theNIFS-HEAT maintained the ductility to relatively high hydrogen levels. The comparison of the datawith those of previous studies suggested that the reduced oxygen level in the NIFS-HEATs should beresponsible for the increased resistance to hydrogen embrittlement. Based on the chemical analysisdata of NIFS-HEATs and SWIP-Heats, neutron-induced activation was analyzed in Institute of PlasmaPhysics (IPP-CAS) as a function of cooling time after the use in the fusion first wall. The resultsshowed that the low level of Co dominates the activity up to 50 years followed by a domination of Nbor Nb and Al in the respective alloys. It was suggested that reduction of Co and Nb, both of whichare thought to have been introduced via cross-contamination into the alloys from the molds usedshould be crucial for reducing further the activation.展开更多

In our experiments, we forced a silkworm caterpillar to spin two, three or four thin cocoons by taking it out from the cocoon being constructed. The mechanical properties of these cocoons were studied by static tensile tests and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis. Though external disturbances may cause the decrease in the total weight of silk spun by the silkworm, a gradual enhancement was interestingly found in the mechanical properties of these thin cocoons. Scanning electron microscopy observations of the fractured specimens of the cocoons showed that there exist several different energy dissipation mechanisms occurred simultaneously at macro-, meso-, and micro-scales, yielding a superior capacity of cocoons to adsorb the energy of possible attacks from the outside and to protect efficiently its pupa against damage. Through evolution of millions of years, therefore, the silkworm Bombyx mori seems to have gained the ability to adapt external disturbances and to redesign a new cocoon with optimized protective function when its first cocoon has been damaged for some reasons.展开更多

In such configuration, the product normally remains in one location for its entire manufacturing period while machines, materials and workers are moved to an assembly site called an assembly island. This production layout has some unique features such as moving assembly workers, tools and materials; limited space at assembly site; considerable distance between islands. The authors first give the definition and mathematical model for the scheduling problem and then propose a two-level genetic algorithm to obtain a near optimal solution to minimize the makespan. Experimental results show that this algorithm is effective. The performance analysis of the proposed algorithm indicates that it is more efficient in the airline or shipbuilding industry than in the machine or tool final assembly companies.展开更多

文摘Data from the Tibet air shower array were used to examine the cosmic ray shadows of the Moon and the Sun at energies around 10Tev.The shadowing effect was clearly observed at the 5.8level for the Moon,while the shadow of the Sun was found in the direction away from the sun by 0.86°tothe west and 0.43°to the south.The effect of the geomagnetic field has also been observed in the shadow of cosmic rays by the Moon.The observed deflection of the sun’s shadow is briefly discussed in connection with the effect of the magnetic fields between the sun and the Earth.This is the first observation of the effects of such magnetic fields on the cosmic ray shadow.The maximum-likelihood analysis of the Moon data set shows that the angular resolutions of the array for showers with its mode energies 7TeVand 35TeV are 0.87°-0.13°+0.10°and 0.54°-0.08°+0.11°,respectively.
文摘基于15kV SiC IGBT的固态变压器
固态变压器不仅是变压器,而且是故障电流限制器、无功功率补偿器和电压暂降恢复器。这些优点使固态变压器在未来电力电子领域具有广泛的应用前景。图8给出了提出的用于FREEDM系统的单相10kVA固态变压器的基准拓扑。它包括了功率变换的三个环节。第一环节为AC/DC整流器,将7kV的单相交流电转换为10kV直流电。

文摘Using a dedicated data sample taken in 2018 on the J/ψpeak,we perform a detailed study of the trigger efficiencies of the BESIII detector.The efficiencies are determined from three representative physics processes,namely Bhabha scattering,dimuon production and generic hadronic events with charged particles.The combined efficiency of all active triggers approaches 100%in most cases,with uncertainties small enough not to affect most physics analyses.
