Selective Coating of SnS on the Bio‐Inspired Moth‐Eye Patterned PEDOT:PSS Polymer Films

A new strategy for the selective coating of tin sulfide (SnS) on the surface of moth‐eye patterned (MEP) conducting polymer film is studied by considering the optical properties of the antireflective moth‐eye pattern and flexibility of polymer films. The semiconductor SnS is selectively coated on the surface of MEP microdomes of poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) poly(styrene‐sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) film. The SnS coated MEP film is obtained by using pore selectively SnS thin layer functionalized polystyrene honeycomb‐patterned porous (HCP) film as a template. Aqueous PEDOT:PSS solution is poured on the SnS functionalized HCP films and detached for the fabrication of SnS coated MEP films. The films show a satisfactory photo‐responsive property under solar stimulated light illumination due to the antireflective MEP structure of PEDOT film and homogenous SnS coating on the surface of the conducting polymer.

复杂地区三维叠前时间偏移技术的应用

在常规地震数据处理过程中，反射波的偏移成像是基于地震数据的共深度点或共中心点叠加技术进行的，在地下地质构造相对复杂的地区，由于叠加过程的引入，导致了一些来自于大倾角地层或细微地质现象产生的地震反射信息的畸变或损失，而目前在算法上已经较为成熟的叠前偏移成像技术，便弥补了叠后偏移成像的不足，特别是在山前复杂构造区带，叠前偏移不仅能够使反射波准确成像，而且能够改善地震数据的信噪比和分辨率。

Improvement of YBCO Superconductor Magnetic Shielding by Using Multiple Bulks

HTS bulks present a high critical current density which can be used as magnetic shields. Previous works showed that BSCCO bulks can screen magnetic fields up to 0.1 T. For large scale applications like electrical machines, stronger magnetic field is usually needed. In so doing, (RE)BCO materials are more suitable since they can shield much higher magnetic fields. Another key issue concerns the size of the bulks. Nowadays, it is possible to manufacture 150-mm diameter class cylindrical YBCO bulk. In order to get larger magnetic shielding areas, multiple bulk superconductors should be arrayed and stacked in layers. This paper presents experimental results on screening performances of layered YBCO pellets. These results are compared with 2D simulations. The experiments are carried out at 77 K under external magnetic fields of 150 mT. Different topologies are considered: single-layer configuration with 9 square pellets and double-layer configuration with respectively 9 and 4 square pellets. Experimental and simulation results show that a checkerboard of one layer configuration does not fully shield the external magnetic field. Improved shielding properties are obtained when the double-layer configuration is used.     

MaD, an automated precise analytical ultracentrifuge scanner system

The various hardware components of this scanning system, a mechanical split-beam scanner with its photomultiplier measuring slit, minimum analog electronics and an important digital part (computer, interface), are intimately interwoven by an elaborate software. A high degree of automation and sophistication is thus reached. On the one hand, all the photoelectrons coming from each light pulse are integrated. The result, after conversion to digital form enters the computer; a high precision is thus reached: 10(-5) absorbance unit (A.U.) under very favorable conditions, and 10(-4) A.U. for conventional sedimentation studies. On the other hand, during its motion along the image, the precise slit position is permanently known by the system: the sector image is thus segmented into precisely defined zones, inside which the average absorbancies are determined, punched, plotted and printed. New and very useful utilizations and improvements of analytical ultracentrifugation are now possible: the fixed radius mode, permits precise s determination by following the radial dilution; s can be precisely measured by time difference curves even when the solution absorbancy is comparable to the base line variations (0.01 A.U.); round trip analyses permit very long analyses without the absorbancies distributions distorsions due to very long one-way scans during sedimentations runs; reductions of the effect of the stray light by a factor of ten. This system has been in routine use for four years.     

Monitoring motility, spreading, and mortality of adherent insect cells using an impedance sensor

An emerging sensor technology referred to as electric cell-substrate impedance sensing (ECIS) has been extended for monitoring the behavior of insect cells including attachment, motility, and mortality. In ECIS, adherent cells were cultured on an array of eight small gold electrodes deposited on the bottom of tissue culture wells and immersed in a culture medium. Upon the attachment and spreading of cells on the gold electrode, the impedance increased because the cells acted as insulating particles to restrict the current flow. Experimental data revealed that insect cells interacted differently with various proteins used to precoat the gold electrode with concanavalin A as the best promoter to accelerate the rate of cell attachment. After the cells were fully spread, the measured impedance continued to fluctuate to reflect the constant motion and metabolic activity of the cells. As the cell behavior was sensitive to external chemicals, the applicability of ECIS for inhibition assays was demonstrated with HgCl2, trinitrotoluene, trinitrobenzene (TNB), and 2-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene as model systems. Unlike conventional assays, the quantitative data obtained in this study are taken in real time and in a continuous fashion to depict cell motility and mortality.     

Improved microstructure and properties of 6061 aluminum alloy weldments using a double-sided arc welding process

Due to its popularity and high crack sensitivity, 6061 aluminum alloy was selected as a test material for the newly developed double-sided arc welding (DSAW) process. The microstructure, crack sensitivity, and porosity of DSAW weldments, were studied systematically. The percentage of fine equiaxed grains in the fully penetrated welds is greatly increased. Residual stresses are reduced. Porosity in the welds is reduced and individual pores are smaller. It was also found that the shape and size of porosity is related to solidification substructure. In particular, a weld metal zone with equiaxed grains tends to form small and dispersed porosity, whereas elongated porosity tends to occur in columnar grains.

Heat and mass transfer in a square microchannel with asymmetric heating

This paper describes the heat and mass transfer in a square microchannel that is heated from one side. This microchannel represents a reaction channel in a microreactor that is used to study the kinetics of the catalytic partial oxidation of methane. The microchannel is contained in a silicon wafer and is covered by a thin silicon sheet. At the top side of this sheet, heating elements are present which mimic the heat that is produced as a result of the exothermic chemical reaction. Correlations for Nusselt and Sherwood numbers as a function of the Graetz number are derived for laminar and plug flow conditions. These correlations describe the heat and mass transport at the covering top sheet of the microchannel as well as at its side and bottom walls. By means of computational fluid dynamic simulations, the laminar flow is studied. To determine an approximate laminar flow Nusselt correlation, the heat transport was solved analytically for plug flow conditions to describe the influence of changes in the thermal boundaries of the system. The laminar flow case is experimentally validated by measuring the actual temperature distribution in a 500 μm square, 3 cm long, microchannel that is covered by a 1 μm and by a 1.9 μm thick silicon sheet with heating elements and temperature sensors on top. The Nusselt and Sherwood correlations can be used to readily quantify the heat and mass transport to support kinetic studies of catalytic reactions in this type of microreactor.
