基于灰色综合评价的物流中心建设项目选址研究

物流中心建设项目的选址是物流系统优化中的一个重要环节,是物流中心项目管理与决策的重要内容。将物流中心建设项目的选址看做是一个灰色系统,尝试利用灰色系统理论对各备选地址进行评价,从而避开对数据精度的苛求。在各指标权重的确定中引入了模糊层次分析法,降低了主观因素的影响。最后通过一个物流中心建设项目的选址实例说明了这种评价方法的应用。     

Efficient corner-pumped Yb:YAG/YAG composite slab laser

A high efficiency Yb:YAG/YAG composite slab laser is presented, in which the corner-pumped scheme is adopted. The slab is a composite crystal of Yb:YAG bonded thermally with undoped YAG at both edges. The pump light from diode arrays is coupled into the slab through four chamfers at the four corners independently. The pump absorption efficiency is studied, and an analysis method has been developed as a guide to optimize the geometric parameters of the composite slab, to obtain higher pump absorption efficiency and uniformity. The influence of the internal thermal lens on the laser resonator is analyzed. A 1016 W continuous-wave output has been obtained with the slope efficiency and optical-to-optical efficiency of 42.8% and 34.4%, respectively.     

Microhardness of ceramics produced from different alumina nanopowders by different techniques

Fine-grained ceramics (with a grain size on the order of a micron) have been produced by the spark plasma sintering (SPS) of various alumina nanopowders. We have compared the microhardness of ceramic samples prepared from 11 alumina nanopowders and that of composites based on such powders. The ceramics have been prepared by both SPS and a conventional technique (sequential pressing and sintering). We examine the effect of the phase composition and average particle size of the starting nanopowder on the microhardness of the ceramics.     

Limitations of dual and complementary inorganic–organic electrochromic device for smart window application and its colorimetric analysis

Inorganic tungsten oxide (WO₃) and organic polyaniline (PANI) films were used as the cathodic and anodic electrodes of an inorganic–organic electrochromic device (IOECD). WO₃ was deposited by sputtering while PANI films were electrodeposited on transparent Indium doped Tin Oxide (ITO) glass substrates, respectively. Optical and electrochemical studies were performed to find the optical attenuation, coloration efficiencies, reversibility and response time separately for the individual films as well as for the assembled IOECD. The change in transmittance of WO₃ film was found to be 63.92%. PANI film showed an optical attenuation of 50.69% while the transmission change through the IOECD was equal to 57%. Colorimetric analysis was done to define the colors in the bleached and colored states in terms of L*ab values and xy chromaticity diagram. Factors limiting the performance of an IOECD were analyzed. It was found that in a charge unbalanced dual complementary IOECD, the coloration efficiency is always less than that of one of the constituent electrodes.     

LD光纤耦合端面泵浦Nd:YVO4/Cr4+:YAG激光器

根据Siegman的被动调Q判据,Nd:YVO4晶体由于受激发射截面大、上能级寿命短,很难获得被动调Q输出。利用LD光纤耦合端面泵浦Nd:YVO4晶体,在泵浦功率3.5W时,连续运转获得最大输出1.4W,相应的光光转换效率为40%,同时采用Cr4+:YAG可饱和吸收体,成功地实现了Nd:YVO4被动调Q运转,获得了脉宽11.7ns,重复频率22kHz调Q输出。     

Novel hybrid solar cells based on α-copper phthalocyanine–cadmium sulfide planar heterojunction

Cadmium sulfide (CdS) has been employed as an alternative acceptor for planar heterojunction solar cell based on copper phthalocyanine (CuPc). Spin-coated poly-3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene:polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) on indium tin oxide (ITO)-coated glass substrates was used for the vacuum deposition of CuPc and CdS planar heterojunction. In the present study, we have fabricated two different architectures of CuPc/CdS devices: (1) ITO/PEDOT:PSS/CuPc/CdS/Al and (2) ITO/PEDOT:PSS/CuPc/CdS/LiF/Al. Our results indicate that the CdS could effectively facilitate charge transport in the nanostructured network, and be a good acceptor. The fabricated bare CuPc/CdS device shows 0.13 % conversion efficiency while incorporation of LiF layer between CuPc/CdS and Al contact facilitates low-recombination rate results ~43 % enhancement in efficiency. The ITO/PEDOT:PSS/CuPc/CdS/LiF/Al device shows 0.30 % power conversion efficiency.
