Previous works have indicated that nanoparticles are beneficial to dielectric performance. However, surface electrical breakdown, a typical fault in GIS of co-doped micro- and nanoparticles in epoxy composites, is seldom studied. In this work, numerous concentrations of micro- and nano-Al2O3 are co-doped into an epoxy matrix; the surface traps, surface charging, and surface breakdown voltages (Vsb) of the co-doped composites are studied, and the influence of micro- and nano-Al2O3 on the electrical surface breakdown is clarified. The results show that Vsb first decreases and then increases with the microparticles, and Vsb decreases from 25.34 kV to 19.52 kV. As the number of nanoparticles increases, Vsb increases and then decreases when the microparticle loading is low, but decreases and then increases when the microparticle loading exceeds 40 wt%. Micro-Al2O3 particles introduce surface shallow traps into epoxy composites, while small amounts of nano-Al2O3 introduce deep traps. Two different mechanisms dominate the surface charging and Vsb of epoxy micro-nanocomposites. When the surface conductivity is lower than 7 × 10−14 S, the surface charges are reduced by the suppression of electrode injection as the trap depth increases, and Vsb increases. When the surface conductivity exceeds 7 × 10−14 S, the surface charge dissipation rate increases with the surface conductivity and Vsb increases as the surface conductivity increases. Our work indicates that co-doped micro- and nano-particles should keep the surface conductivity away from the specic value (7 × 10−14 S) to safeguard insulation properties for GIS spacers.","PeriodicalId":16789,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142263073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this contribution, we present results of a global plasma model (GPM) of a plasma ignited in a very low-pressure air mixture. The results are validated against experimental measurements acquired using a laboratory electrodeless ion source utilizing a resonator for plasma ignition. The device is specifically designed to operate within low-pressure environments as it holds potential applications in ABEP systems for VLEO missions. Parametric studies are carried out via GPM to investigate the resonant behavior and its implications. The potential of the model serving as a predictive tool is assessed through experimental validation against measured data, mainly investigating the extracted ion current dependency on operational pressure and external magnetic field strength. The verified model is further utilized to extrapolate additional information about the resonant plasma such as ion composition or a degree of ionization.","PeriodicalId":16789,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics","volume":"66 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142263071","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Firstly, the quantitative relationship between the equivalent impedance of RFSS and the permittivity of the effective media is constructed with the help of the transmission matrix method. The dispersion regulation of permittivity is achieved by changing the pattern and the square resistance of RFSS. In terms of absorber design, a uniform absorber with dispersion manipulation is developed as a precursor absorber. The uniform absorber has an absorption performance better than −8.5 dB above 2 GHz at normal incidence. The loss mechanism is analyzed in detail by electric field distribution and surface power loss density distribution, indicating that the uniform design cannot achieve thickness saving when extending to low frequency. Therefore, a dispersion compensation design absorber is proposed to extend −10 dB bandwidth to 1.64–28.8 GHz. Experiment results agree well with the simulation results, validating the analytic methods and design principles.","PeriodicalId":16789,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142263074","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results show that Ga2O3/m-sapphire exhibits the lower electrical resistivity than its counterpart grown on c-sapphire. Activation energies of acceptor levels were estimated at ~1.4 and ~0.7 , for Ga2O3 films grown on c- and m-plane, respectively. This result shows that growing Ga2O3 on m-plane sapphire is beneficial to reach a weakly compensated sample. Cathodoluminescence analysis suggests that the additional low activation energy of ~0.18 observed in Ga2O3 grown with the highest oxygen flow on m-plane sapphire can be associated to thermally-induced migration of self-trapped hole states.","PeriodicalId":16789,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics","volume":"214 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142263075","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Co-ablation of titanium and vanadium nitride targets together with graphite allowed us to synthesize carbon-metal oxynitride porous nanocomposite and exploit them as a binder-free thin film supercapacitor electrode in aqueous electrolyte. We show that the elemental composition ratio and hence the structural properties can be tuned by selecting target configuration and by manipulating the ablation position.

This review aims to bridge the gap between research and practical application, paving the way for the development of robust and efficient PAW systems for enhancing food safety and agricultural productivity. By examining a variety of activation methods, including direct gas ionization, underwater discharges, and dynamic interactions of ionized gases with liquids, this work discusses the mechanical designs that facilitate these processes, highlighting their scalability and efficiency. The discussion is grounded in a comprehensive relevant scientific and patent literature, offering a critical overview of the systems’ design parameters that influence the generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS). The designs reported in literature have employed three major approaches, viz. direct underwater discharges, gas ionization followed by introduction of plasma into the liquid, creation of gas liquid mixtures and subsequent ionization. The laboratory systems have relied on natural convective diffusion of the RONS into water, while most of the patents advocate use of forced convective diffusion of RONS to increase transfer rates. Despite widespread laboratory-scale research in PAW, the transition to industrial-scale systems remains underexplored.","PeriodicalId":16789,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142263077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) devices this prerequisite translates into high sound velocities and high piezoelectric couplings. Wurtzite AlN on diamond, which exploits the strong piezoelectricity of AlN with the very high SAW velocity of diamond, has been considered a promising platform. A significant boost (up to a factor of 4) of the piezoelectric response can be obtained by alloying AlN with Sc. Here, the main challenge lies in the synthesis of highly-oriented thin (Sc,Al)N films on diamond. In this work, we aim at establishing a platform for SAW devices using plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy for the deposition of Sc0.2Al0.8N on diamond. We investigate the structural properties related to SAW generation gearing towards applications at high frequencies. To this end, we prepare (Sc,Al)N thin films on polished polycrystalline diamond wafers and demonstrate the efficient generation of SAW modes with frequencies up to 8 GHz. Systematic studies of the dependence of the SAW velocity and electromechanical coupling coefficient on the Sc0.2Al0.8N film thickness is presented for various SAW modes. Our result demonstrates the potential of this material combination for future application that requires large bandwidth in the ultra-high frequency range.","PeriodicalId":16789,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics","volume":"48 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142263080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
