The advantage of these lasers is their biocompatibility and biodegradability which is significant for biointegration. In this study, we demonstrate that starch is a low-cost and good material for microsphere biolasers. By using a simple emulsion method with a dehydration process, dye-doped starch microsphere lasers with diameters ranging from 40 to 180 μm have been successfully obtained. Lasing properties are investigated and the results show that the lasing threshold is approximately 1.0 μJ and the quality factor can reach 2700. The starch-based microsphere lasers indicate excellent stability after a storage time of a month; thus, they are promising for practical applications in biological and chemical sensors.","PeriodicalId":170632,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Science & Technique - Section of Special Construction Engineering","volume":"26 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114003145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, the double halide-perovskite cesium tellurium iodine Cs2TeI6 has shown its potential application due to its strong stability, high absorption coefficient, suitable bandgap and composition of non-toxic elements. However, studies on its experimental fabrications are still limited. In previous works, we reported a method for fabricating Cs2TeI6 thin films by a synthesis of a CsI film followed by annealing in TeI4 vapor. Those studies focused more on application orientation rather than in-depth analysis of the influence of technical parameters on the film formation. In this study, we make CsI films by using the chemical vapor deposition method and then investigate the effect of TeI4-annealing temperature in the range of 120-330ºC on the Cs2TeI6 film formation. After that, the optical property and long-term stability are examined. At 240ºC, the film is black, tightly packed and pin-hole free with a good adhesion with the substrate. It has high absorbance in the visible region with an optical bandgap of 1.61 eV and the film is found to be very stable in humid air for 20 weeks.","PeriodicalId":170632,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Science & Technique - Section of Special Construction Engineering","volume":"387 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120869349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Compared with other desalination technologies, RO has several attributes including high energy efficiency and system modularization. To achieve these notable attributes, for large-scale seawater RO plants, it is critical to accurately design and evaluate the RO process before plant installation and operation. In this study, the IMSDesign software is applied to design a seawater RO plant with a capacity of 100 m3 of fresh water per hour. The software allows to customize the design parameters and operating conditions of the RO plant to meet the design requirements. After inputting design parameters and operating conditions, the RO plant operation can be simulated to obtain its performance indexes for plant design evaluation. The evaluation results reveal that the RO plant with membrane trains arranged in 2-passes configuration can obtain high quality permeate that meets the required standards for drinking water at energy consumption and water cost of 10.66 kWh/m3 and 2.48 USD/m3, respectively.","PeriodicalId":170632,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Science & Technique - Section of Special Construction Engineering","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121383467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
