3D-FDTD modelling of optical biosensing based on gold-coated nanoporous anodic alumina
摘要： The suitability of using gold-coated nanoporous anodic alumina structures as a platform for reflectometry-based plasmonic biosensors is investigated by numerical simulation. Reflectance spectra of such structures has been obtained using 3D-FDTD while the sensing capabilities have been evaluated as the change in spectra upon the adsorption of a layer of a biological-related molecule (biolayer) on the gold coating and inner pore surface. Results show that the gold-coated nanoporous structure enables the coupling of normally incident light to a localized surface plasmon resonance, and that such resonance shifts upon the adsorption of the biolayer. A sensitivity can be defined as the resonance wavelength shift with the biolayer refractive index. It is demonstrated that smaller gold coating thicknesses result in an increase in sensitivity, but at the cost of a decrease in the resonance sharpness, what suggests the existence of an optimal gold coating thickness.

Apparent delay analysis for a flat-plate solar field model designed for control purposes
摘要： This study presents an analysis of the effect of the transport delay which occurs in solar flat-plate collector fields and how to include its behavior in dynamic models suitable for control purposes. This investigation has been carried out using simplified models based on dynamic energy balances and models based on step response methods and experimental tests. The solar flat-plate collector field encompasses parallel absorber pipes intertwined with pipelines which act as several first-order plus dead time systems in parallel. The effect is an apparent delay observed at the outlet temperature that must be included in the dynamic model in order to reduce the error between the real measurement and the model prediction. The main contribution of this paper is the procedure to evaluate the apparent delay to obtain adequate dynamic models aimed to be used for control purposes.

From EBIC images to qualitative minority carrier diffusion length maps
摘要： A novel method is presented with the aim to perform minority carrier di?usion length map on cross-sectional samples. The method is based on one Electron-Beam Induced Current (EBIC) acquisition and on the analyze of the EBIC signal slope variation on each scanned points. This method is applied on a pinned photodiode array realized on a low doped silicon epitaxy, and the electron di?usion length map which is extracted is in good accordance with our expectation taking into account the doping distribution of the device. A TCAD simulation also con?rms quantitatively the measured di?usion length map. Advantages and drawbacks of this method are discussed in this study.

Dopants Control of Electron-Hole Recombination in Cesium-Titanium Halide Double Perovskite by Time Domain Ab Initio Simulation: Co-Doping Supersedes Mono-Doping
摘要： Using nonadiabatic (NA) molecular dynamics combined with time-domain density functional theory, we simulate electron-hole recombination in pristine and doped inorganic Pb-free double perovskite Cs2TiBr6. We show that replacing the titanium and/or bromine with silicon and/or chlorine extends the charge carrier lifetime. Importantly, dopants avoid deep traps despite they do not change the fundamental bandgap of Cs2TiBr6, they decrease the NA electron-phonon coupling and accelerate decoherence, arising from the reduced overlap of electron and hole wave functions as well as fast phonon modes induced by light dopants respectively, suppressing electron-hole recombination. More importantly, co-doping can reduce the formation energy of silicon and achieve higher doping concentration, potentially increasing the lifetime further. Our study suggests a rational strategy to reduce energy losses by co-doping in design of high performance all-inorganic Pb-free perovskite solar cells.

Kinetic bandgap analysis of plasma photonic crystals
摘要： The dispersion relation of plasma and plasma-dielectric photonic multilayer structures is approached in terms of a one-dimensional Particle-in-Cell simulation. For several plasma-dielectric configurations, the system response is obtained using a pulsed excitation and a subsequent two-dimensional frequency analysis. It is first shown that the dispersion relation of a single, homogeneous plasma slab is well described by the cold-plasma model even at a low pressure of 1 Pa. The study is extended to the simulation of plasma photonic crystals with a variety of configurations based on the work of Hojo and Mase [J. Plasma Fusion Res. 80, 89 (2004)]. Considering a one-dimensional plasma photonic crystal made from alternating layers of dielectric and homogeneous plasma slabs, it is shown that the assumption of a cold-plasma description is well justified also in this case. Moreover, in this work, the results are reformatted and analyzed in a band diagram representation, in particular, based on the lattice constant a. Based on these considerations, a scaling invariant representation is presented, utilizing a generalized set of parameters. The study is completed with an exemplary comparison of three plasma-dielectric photonic crystal configurations and their corresponding band diagrams.

Approximating vibronic spectroscopy with imperfect quantum optics
摘要： We study the impact of experimental imperfections on a recently proposed protocol for performing quantum simulations of vibronic spectroscopy. Specifically, we propose a method for quantifying the impact of these imperfections, optimizing an experiment to account for them, and benchmarking the results against a classical simulation method. We illustrate our findings using a proof of principle experimental simulation of part of the vibronic spectrum of tropolone. Our findings will inform the design of future experiments aiming to simulate the spectra of large molecules beyond the reach of current classical computers.

Research and Implementation of Instrument System on a Light-Duty Electric Aircraft Simulator
摘要： Considering the demands of the instrument system on a light-duty electric aircraft simulator, a semi-physical simulation instrument system, which is based on virtual reality and microcontroller technologies, is designed and implemented. Meanwhile, some key technologies are discussed and a general development method is put forward in this paper. After being completed, this simulated instrument system is connected with the flight-computing system to test its performances. The results show that it has real effect, stable operation and real time response. In practice, the instrument system not only meets the demands of the light-duty electric aircraft simulator, but also can be seen as a certain reference to develop the instrument system of other aircraft simulators.

On the Influence of Collector Size on the Solar Chimneys Performance
摘要： Performance of solar chimney power plant system is highly influenced by the design geometries. The collector size is logically enhances the solar chimney performance, but the trend of enhancement is not yet investigated. In the present work, experimental and numerical investigations have been carried out to ascertain, in terms of qualitative and quantitative evaluation, the effect of the collector diameter. Daily thermal efficiency has been determined at four different collector diameter. Two different collector diameters, 3.0 and 6.0 m, have been investigated experimentally, and then scaled up, to 9.0 and 12.0 m, by numerical simulation using ANSYS-FLUENT?15 software. Results demonstrated that collector diameter has effectively influenced the system performance. Larger collector diameter imposed increase in the velocity, temperature and the daily average thermal efficiency of the system. From the experimental results, increasing the collector diameter from 3.0 to 6.0 m has increased the daily average thermal efficiency of the collector from 9.81 to 12.8. Simulation results at 800 W/m2 irradiation revealed that the velocity in the chimney have increased from 1.66 m/s at 3.0 m collector diameter to 2.34, 2.47 and 2.63 m/s for 6.0, 9.0 and 12.0 m collector diameters, respectively.

Self-consistent procedure including envelope function normalization for full-zone Schr?dinger-Poisson problems with transmitting boundary conditions
摘要： In the quantum mechanical simulation of exploratory semiconductor devices, continuum methods based on a k·p/envelope function model have the potential to significantly reduce the computational burden compared to prevalent atomistic methods. However, full-zone k·p/envelope function simulation approaches are scarce and existing implementations are not self-consistent with the calculation of the electrostatic potential due to the lack of a stable procedure and a proper normalization of the multi-band envelope functions. Here, we therefore present a self-consistent procedure based on a full-zone spectral k·p/envelope function band structure model. First, we develop a proper normalization for the multi-band envelope functions in the presence of transmitting boundary conditions. This enables the calculation of the free carrier densities. Next, we construct a procedure to obtain self-consistency of the carrier densities with the electrostatic potential. This procedure is stabilized with an adaptive scheme that relies on the solution of Poisson’s equation in the Gummel form, combined with successive underrelaxation. Finally, we apply our procedure to homostructure In0.53Ga0.47As tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs) and staggered heterostructure GaAs0.5Sb0.5/In0.53Ga0.47As TFETs and show the importance of self-consistency on the device predictions for scaled dimensions.

摘要： This paper presents a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) simulator designed to assess the performance of bi-static SAR missions. It is a modular software able to simulate realistic SAR data (including injection of the system non-idealities), to estimate the SAR performance at radiometric and interferometric level. In order to ensure accurate measures of the bi-static performance, it simulates raw data exploiting a time-domain approach, without assumptions on the acquisition geometry. This feature makes the simulator a useful tool for the design of new SAR mission concepts. We also report sample results considering the SAOCOM-CS mission case as an example of application of the simulator.
