ZnO Micro- and Nanostructures Obtained by Thermal Oxidation: Microstructure, Morphogenesis, Optical, and Photoluminescence Properties
摘要： ZnO micro- and nanostructures were obtained through thermal oxidation of Zn powders at high temperature under air atmosphere. A detailed study of the microstructure, morphology, optical, and photoluminescence properties of the generated products at different stages of thermal oxidation is presented. It was found that the exposure time has a strong influence on the resulting morphology. The morphogenesis of the different ZnO structures is discussed, and experimental parameters for fabricating ZnO tetrapods, hollow, core-shell, elongated, or rounded structures by thermal oxidation method are proposed on the basis on the obtained results. Notoriously, the crystal lattice of the ZnO structures has negligible residual strain, although, the density of point defects increases when the thermal treatment is extended; as consequence, their visible luminescence upon UV excitation enhances.

Influence of thermal oxidation temperature on the microstructure and photoelectrochemical properties of ZnO nanostructures fabricated on the zinc scraps
摘要： In this paper, zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires were synthesized by thermal oxidation method of zinc scrap at various temperatures ranging between 400 °C and 900 °C under air atmosphere. The influence of different temperature on the phase structures, surface morphologies and photoelectrochemical (PEC) properties of ZnO nanowires were investigated. The characterizations were carried out via X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). The results showed that annealing temperature played a significant role on surface morphology and phase structure. The band gap energy of the ZnO nanowires changed between 3.12 and 3.194 eV. The photoelectrochemical (PEC) study of the ZnO nanowires was investigated in 0.1 M Na2SO4 aqueous solution. The PEC findings represented that the ZnO nanowire annealed at 600 °C had 252.2 mA/cm2 net photocurrent density which was the best efficiency and at least 10 times higher than that of the lowest one at 1.25 V (vs. VRHE). Mott-Schottky analysis showed that the ZnO nanowires behaved as n-type semiconductor. ZnO nanowire annealed at 600 °C had the highest carrier density value (Nd = 9.03 × 10^23). Moreover, the charge transfer behavior of the ZnO nanowires was determined by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. As a result, this work recommends that the ZnO nanowires could be good candidate on PEC applications. Also, thermal oxidation method is an efficient method for fabrication of ZnO nanowires.

Narrow-Band Green-Emitting Sr <sub/>2</sub> MgAl <sub/>22</sub> O <sub/>36</sub> :Mn <sup>2+</sup> Phosphors with Superior Thermal Stability and Wide Color Gamut for Backlighting Display Applications
摘要： The narrow-band emitting phosphors have been extensively investigated in recent years, with the expectation that a wide color gamut of phosphor-converted backlighting device could be fabricated. Due to the weak electric–phonon interaction and low structural relaxation caused by the high rigid crystal structure and symmetric coordination environment, Sr2MgAl22O36:Mn2+ (SMAO:Mn2+) shows a narrow full-width at half-maximum of 26 nm, a high color purity of 81.5%, and a low thermal quenching (82% at 473 K of the initial intensity at 298 K). Using K2SiF6:Mn4+ as the red phosphor, SMAO:Mn2+ as the green one, and GaN-based chip as the blue component, the white light-emitting diode exhibits a National Television Standard Committee value of 127%. All the results demonstrate that the SMAO:Mn2+ phosphor has a promising application in the field of advanced wide-color-gamut backlight display, and the establishment of the relationships between the narrow-band emission and crystal structure can also be applied to design other novel narrow-band phosphors for backlighting technologies.

Temperature-Dependent Electrical Characteristics of β-Ga <sub/>2</sub> O <sub/>3</sub> Diodes with W Schottky Contacts up to 500°C
摘要： The development of thermally stable contacts capable of high temperature operation are necessary for Ga2O3 high power rectifiers. We have measured the electrical characteristics of sputter-deposited W Schottky contacts with Au overlayers for reducing sheet resistance on n-type Ga2O3 before and after device operation up to 500°C. Assuming thermionic emission is dominant, the extracted barrier height decreases with measurement temperature from 0.97 eV (25°C) to 0.39 eV (500°C) while showing little change from its initial value of 0.97 eV after cooling down from each respective operation temperature. The room temperature value is comparable to that obtained by determining the energy difference between binding energy of the Ga 3d core level and the valence band of the Ga2O3 when W is present, 0.80 ± 0.2 eV in this case. The Richardson constant was 54.05 A.cm?2.K?2 for W and the effective Schottky barrier height at zero bias (eφb0) was 0.92 eV from temperature-dependent current-voltage characteristics. The temperature coefficient for reverse breakdown voltage was 0.16 V/K for W/Au and 0.12 V/K for Ni/Au. The W-based contacts are more thermally stable than conventional Ni-based Schottkies on Ga2O3 but do show evidence of Ga migration through the contact after 500°C device operation.

Linear complex susceptibility of long-range interacting dipoles with thermal agitation and weak external ac fields
摘要： An analytical formula for the linear complex susceptibility of dipolar assemblies subjected to thermal agitation, long-range interactions, and an externally applied uniform sinusoidal field of weak amplitude is derived using the forced rotational diffusion equation of Cugliandolo et al. [Phys. Rev. E 91, 032139 (2015)] in the virial approximation. If the Kirkwood correlation factor of the dipolar assembly gK exceeds unity, a thermally activated process arising from the interaction-specific component arises, while for gK < 1 the susceptibility spectrum normalized by its static value is practically unaltered with respect to that of the ideal gas phase.

Theoretical Investigation of Thermal Effects in High Power Er <sup>3+</sup> /Yb <sup>3+</sup> - Codoped Double-Clad Fiber Amplifiers for Space Applications
摘要： In this paper, a multiphysics numerical model based on the spatial-dependent rate equations and 3-D non-homogeneous heat conduction model is used to investigate the performance of Er3t/Yb3t-codoped double-clad fiber amplifiers with respect to the constraints associated with space applications. The effects of fiber length, coating thickness, and core radius changes are analyzed. Furthermore, the impact of thermal heating due to the high power optical signals propagating along the fiber on the amplifier gain is examined. The temperature dependence of the refractive index, emission and absorption cross sections, as well as the radiation induced attenuation is derived and modeled. It is observed that the coating thickness affects the temperature distribution along the whole fiber length. Thicker coating mitigates the temperature variation along the fiber as well as it improves the temperature difference between the core center and the outer fiber surface. Moreover, larger core results in higher optical gain and shorter fibers. By numerical results, it is inferred that the thermal effects could strongly degrade the whole amplifier performance.

Growth and Self-Assembly of Silicon–Silicon Carbide Nanoparticles into Hybrid Worm-Like Nanostructures at the Silicon Wafer Surface
摘要： This work describes the growth of silicon–silicon carbide nanoparticles (Si–SiC) and their self-assembly into worm-like 1D hybrid nanostructures at the interface of graphene oxide/silicon wafer (GO/Si) under Ar atmosphere at 1000 °C. Depending on GO film thickness, spread silicon nanoparticles apparently develop on GO layers, or GO-embedded Si–SiC nanoparticles self-assembled into some-micrometers-long worm-like nanowires. It was found that the nanoarrays show that carbon–silicon-based nanowires (CSNW) are standing on the Si wafer. It was assumed that Si nanoparticles originated from melted Si at the Si wafer surface and GO-induced nucleation. Additionally, a mechanism for the formation of CSNW is proposed.

Fast Detection of Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum on Oilseed Rape Leaves Using Low-Altitude Remote Sensing Technology
摘要： Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, one of the major diseases infecting oilseed rape leaves, has seriously affected crop yield and quality. In this study, an indoor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) low-altitude remote sensing simulation platform was built for disease detection. Thermal, multispectral and RGB images were acquired before and after being artificially inoculated with Sclerotinia sclerotiorum on oilseed rape leaves. New image registration and fusion methods based on scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) were presented to construct a fused database using multi-model images. The changes of temperature distribution in different sections of infected areas were analyzed by processing thermal images, the maximum temperature difference (MTD) on a single leaf reached 1.7 degrees Celsius 24 h after infection. Four machine learning models were established using thermal images and fused images respectively, including support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), K-nearest neighbor (KNN) and na?ve Bayes (NB). The results demonstrated that the classification accuracy was improved by 11.3% after image fusion, and the SVM model obtained a classification accuracy of 90.0% on the task of classifying disease severity. The overall results indicated the UAV low-altitude remote sensing simulation platform equipped with multi-sensors could be used to early detect Sclerotinia sclerotiorum on oilseed rape leaves.

Structural and Diffuse Reflectance Study of Cr-Doped ZnO Nanorod-Pigments Prepared via Facile Thermal Decomposition Technique
摘要： Ceramic coloured nanopigments are promising for commercial cool paint applications. This study was carried out to examine the near infrared (NIR) reflectivity of Cr-doped ZnO nanopigments prepared by simple thermal decomposition of zinc acetate dihydrate and chromium(III) acetate hydroxide as precursors of Zn and Cr, respectively. XRD, FTIR and SEM have been used to characterize the microstructure and morphological properties of the synthesized nanopigments. The obtained results referred to ZnO wurtzite hexagonal structure in absence of other ZnO phases or any phases based on chromium. The obtained particles of the investigated samples are uniform rod-like shape with average diameter about 50 nm. The diffuse reflectance measurements exhibited the decrease in NIR reflectance with increasing Cr content. The sample with lower content of Cr, 0.5 wt% of Cr precursor to Zn precursor, exhibited a maximum value of NIR solar reflectance (R*) of 53.1% with respect to the other doped samples. The optical energy gap (Eg) of the investigated nanopigments were calculated using diffuse reflectance spectrum in view of Kubelka–Munk assumptions and the obtained average value of Eg is 3.219 eV with small standard deviation ± 0.015 eV.
