It incorporates Henry’s or Sieverts’ law, affecting solute transfer at the cap and top free surface, and pore evolution. The significance of the directional and lightweight characteristics of lotus-type porous materials makes them vitally important in functional heat sinks, energy absorption, biomedical devices, and other applications. The study extends previous solute transfer models based on solute concentration deviations in the liquid from the top surface and convection-affected segregation at the advancing liquid-solid interface by further considering the effects of interfacial equilibrium conditions on pore development. Typical data selected for the dimensionless Henry’s law constant at the cap and top free surface is 0.175, while the Sieverts’ law constant at the cap and top free surface is 0.03. MATLAB Simulink and Simscape (version R2020b) with the solver ode113 are utilized to solve the resulting simultaneous system of unsteady first-order differential equations. The results show that the size of lotus-type pores increases as the Henry’s law constant at the cap decreases while the Henry's law constant at the top free surface increases. Similar results are observed for Sieverts’ law. Lotus-type pores readily form as the Henry’s law constant at the cap increases while that at the top free surface decreases. The lotus pore length can also be determined and interpreted algebraically using solute content conservation. The model's predictions closely match analytical findings previously validated by experimental data.","PeriodicalId":503429,"journal":{"name":"Physica Scripta","volume":"41 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141809379","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}

AlN film deposited in conventional FBAR fabrication process is poor, resulting in unsatisfactory device performance. This study demonstrated the comparison of two Si-substrate FBARs, adopting the same AlN deposition process by physical vapor deposition (PVD) method, however using different device fabrication method. Instead of depositing AlN film on Mo/SiO2/Si substrate in existing fabrication process, we deposited AlN directly on Si substrate by PVD to get better crystal quality piezoelectric layer of the FBAR. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of rocking curve and surface roughness of AlN directly deposited on Si substrate are 1.4° and 1.96 nm, while those of AlN deposited on Mo/SiO2/Si substrate are 8.5° and 5.54 nm, respectively, indicating AlN deposited directly on Si substrate has a better crystal quality than that on Mo/SiO2/Si substrate. The dielectric loss of FBAR using AlN developed on Si substrate decreases from 0.4 Ω to 0.11 Ω leading to the increase of Qm from 470 to 830.

Given the significance of impurities and defects in the semiconductor, comprehensive and in-depth understanding of impurities and defects about 4H-SiC plays a crucial guiding role. This paper, building upon a brief overview of the current state of 4H-SiC research, summarizes the experimental and theoretical advancements in the study of defects and impurities about 4H-SiC in recent years.

The mode characteristics and sensing performance of the designed PCF sensor are studied using the finite element method, and the effects of changes in structural parameters such as pore radius, spacing, and gold film thickness on the resonance spectrum are analyzed. The sensing accuracy of the sensor is insensitive to the change of structural parameters, and it has the characteristics of a wide detection range, high sensitivity, and easy manufacture. When the liquid RI is in a wide range of 1.33-1.42, the RI sensitivity up to 20400 nm/RIU is obtained. When the temperature is within a wide range of -10 °C -100 °C, a temperature sensitivity of up to 15.4 nm/°C is achieved. The tight structure design of the sensor core close to the polishing surface and the anti-spill light design with a uniform arrangement of air holes enhance the SPR effect, which is the essential reason for achieving a wide detection range and high sensitivity.","PeriodicalId":503429,"journal":{"name":"Physica Scripta","volume":"52 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141813077","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}

It is shown that the double sudden change of the GQD can be controlled, and the frozen time during which the GQD keeps nearly constant can be lengthened by applying the TDEF. Furthermore, we also find that the TDEF can delay the “critical point” of sudden change for quantum coherence and slow down the decay of quantum coherence.
