Fabricated 1-mm-long electro-absorption devices exhibit a modulation depth of >35 dB with a 7 V forward bias at 3.8 μm, and a similar 1-mm-long Mach–Zehnder modulator has a Vπ· L of 0.47 V · cm. Driven by a 2.5 Vpp RF signal, 60 MHz on-off keying modulation was demonstrated. Electro-absorption modulation at 8 μm was demonstrated preliminarily, with the device performance limited by large contact separation and high contact resistance.展开更多

In order to investigate the seismic performance of this type of structure, several ground motion accelerations with different levels for seismic intensity Ⅷ, based on the Chinese Code for Seismic Design of Buildings, were selected to excite the model. The results show that the design methods of the members and the connections are adequate and that the structural system will perform well in regions of high seismicity. In addition to the tests, numerical simulations were also conducted and the results showed good agreement with the test results. Thus, the numerical model is shown to be accurate and the beam element can be used to model this structural system.展开更多

The mathematical model of the ring winding machine motion law was analyzed and optimized.Through the analysis and study of the movement rule of bottom bobbins and the ring spinning frame spool forming, the mathematical model of active bottom bobbins forming movement was established. Also,the mathematical model of bobbins formation was simulated and optimized. The concept of "controlled nail"was put forward. On this basis,the mathematical model of the current tube forming motion was optimized. The experimental results demonstrated that the theory of"controlled nail"met the high-speed spinning winding theory. The theory of "controlled nail "not only did the capacity of the bobbin increase,but also the spinning speed and efficiency are both improved,reducing the high-speed winder winding off. This research could provide a theoretical basis for the development of a new ring spinning frame.展开更多
