Spin coated multilayered CuO/ZnO films with high output power under irradiation
摘要： Thin films of pure CuO, pure ZnO and CuO/ZnO multilayers were synthesized using the spin coating technique. CuO and ZnO layers were spin coated for 30 s at speeds of 2000 and 1500 rpm, respectively. All the samples were subsequently annealed at 500 0C for one hour in air. Structural properties of films investigated using XRD patterns indicated the crystallization of single phase of CuO and ZnO. Optical band gaps of samples determined by UV-Visible spectrums were in the range of the band gaps of CuO and ZnO. The main objective of the preparation of multilayered CuO/ZnO was enhancing the output power by combining wide band gap and narrow band gap materials. CuO with higher photocurrent and ZnO with higher photovoltage were employed to achieve this task. Photocurrent, photovoltage and impedance were measured in order to investigate the electrical properties of these samples. A liquid junction photocell with electrolyte potassium iodide (KI) was employed to measure photovoltaic properties. A multilayer with ZnO as the top layer provides a higher output power of 3.6 μW/cm2 compared to the output power of a multilayer with CuO as the top layer (1.1 μW/cm2). This is the highest output power reported for a multilayer of CuO/ZnO without any dye coating in KI electrolyte. The highest output power of our multilayered samples is more than twice the previously reported highest output powers of pure CuO and pure ZnO thin film samples without dye coating. Chemical properties of samples were confirmed by FTIR. Crystallite sizes were in the range from 23 to 28 nm. Impedance curves of the samples were measured under dark and light conditions. Two semicircles could be observed at Nyquist plots of both multilayer samples.

Electro-photocatalytic Fenton Decolorization of Orange G Using Mesoporous TiO2/stainless Steel Mesh Photo-Electrode Prepared by the Sol-Gel Dip-Coating Method
摘要： A photo-electrochemical process is a powerful and eco-friendly method for treating industrial wastewater. Electro-photocatalytic Fenton (EPF) was employed for orange G decolorization using two kinds of photo-electrodes with TiO2 film-coated stainless steel (SS) mesh. These photo-electrodes are prepared by a dip-coating method from the sol-gel-derived TiO2 sols incorporating with various amounts of P25+TiO2 powders (SGDC method). The single dip-coated electrode with the TiO2 sol containing 50 g/L P25 powders possesses similar crystallinity and decolorization performance to the four repetitive dip-coated electrodes with pure TiO2 sol. The kinetics of orange G decolorization using P25+TiO2 film electrode in photocatalytic (PC), electro-Fenton (EF) and EPF processes followed pseudo first-order kinetics model, and the EPF has the highest reaction rate. The efficiency of orange G decolorization achieves 78% via the EPF reaction for 3 h. The SGDC method using the TiO2 sol containing P25 powders not only enhances the TiO2 coating on the SS substrate, but also produces microcracks in the film, that facilitates the in-situ generation of ferrous ions and further induces the EPF reaction for an effective degradation of organic matter in wastewater.

[IEEE 2018 IEEE International Conference on Mechatronics and Automation (ICMA) - Changchun (2018.8.5-2018.8.8)] 2018 IEEE International Conference on Mechatronics and Automation (ICMA) - Study on the Calculation Method of Ice Thickness Calculation and Wire Extraction Based on Infrared Image
摘要： In order to accurately measure the ice coating thickness on the ice-covered wire, the conventional ice-covering measurement method has complex operations and insufficient accuracy. This paper based on the infrared image of ice covered wire obtained by UAV and uses the image processing method to perform edge detection on the infrared image of the ice coating wire. The results show that Ratio operator detection results are superior to Canny operator and Steger operator. Then, the Hough change is performed on the image detected by the Ratio operator edge, and the exact position of the wire in the infrared image is extracted to prepare for the next calculation of the ice thickness. Finally, on the basis of the extracted infrared image, the calculation of the ice thickness on the ice-covered wire is converted into the solution of the image pixels. Then the image data is used to calculate the inclination of the overhead transmission line in the image, and the thickness of the ice coating is corrected. Finally,the results obtained by experiment show that the error between the calculation results of the ice coating thickness obtained by the pixel solution method and the thickness of the ice coating obtained by the numerical calculation is very small. Therefore, this method can accurately calculate the ice-covering thickness of the ice-covered wire and has a good application prospect in the wire ice covered field.

Handbook of Advanced Non-Destructive Evaluation || Terahertz Techniques in NDE
摘要： So far, terahertz measurement technology has rarely been used in industry. This book chapter presents therefore the underlying technologies, the resulting possibilities and exemplary applications. The introduction describes the basic properties of terahertz systems and the advantages of terahertz technology over established techniques such as infrared, X-rays and ultrasound. The two industrially relevant terahertz techniques, time domain spectrometer and FMCW system, are described in detail. In addition, the metrological basics for their main applications are introduced. Imaging is required in many applications. Different approaches are presented. Before the chapter concludes with an outlook on future applications, current application examples are discussed. This concerns applications in the fields of coating thickness measurement, safety, materials research, testing of lightweight materials and inline testing. An extensive reference list provides a deeper insight into the topics addressed.

A hydrophobic ultralow refractive-index silica coating towards double-layer broadband antireflective coating with exceptionally high vacuum stability and laser-induced damage threshold
摘要： We report the fabrication of nanoporous silica coatings with tunable refractive indices by a one-step base-catalyzed sol-gel process using tetraethoxysilane as the precursor, hexamethylisilazane as the modifier at ambient conditions. The advantages of the present method are inexpensive, etchant-free and without high temperature calcination treatment. Importantly, porosity of the coatings can be tunable by changing the monomer ratio of the starting solution, which makes them suitable for top layer of broadband AR coatings. The tri-wavelength broadband AR coating with the refractive indices of the bottom and top layers as 1.27 and 1.16 was achieved on a fused silica substrate, which possessed high transmittance of 99.6%, 98.0% and 99.3% at 351 nm, 527 nm and 1053 nm, respectively. Moreover, the double-layer coating showed significant stability, when tested with polydimethylsiloxane pollution in vacuum for a week. In addition, LIDT of the double-layer coating was up to ca. 19.0 J cm?2 at a 6.3 ns laser pulse of 351 nm wavelength. This double-layer AR coating possesses excellent broadband AR performance, high LIDT, and excellent vacuum stability, which can open a new avenue to explore applications in high-power laser systems.

AIP Conference Proceedings [Author(s) SolarPACES 2017: International Conference on Concentrating Solar Power and Chemical Energy Systems - Santiago, Chile (26–29 September 2017)] - Hydrophilic anti-soiling coating for improved efficiency of solar reflectors
摘要： The reflector is the first key component in the energy conversion process of concentrating solar technologies as any solar radiation that is not reflected by the mirror in the direction of the receiver is lost to the system. Due to the outdoor exposure, solar reflectors are subjected to constant soiling deposition (including dust, sand and/or dirtiness), which severely decreases the output power of the solar concentrating collectors, as it reduces the amount of radiation that can be reflected towards the receiver (associated to the absorption and scattering effects of light). Most of the Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) plants are installed in regions of high Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI) with arid and semi-arid climate, involving the existence of an important amount of dust and sand in the ambient. Collector cleanliness represents one of the most costly expenses of the solar-plant operation and maintenance (O&M). Consequently, minimizing this cost is an important issue for the solar-plant economic feasibility. Anti-soiling coatings deposited on the surface of silvered-glass reflectors are a powerful tool that can help in repelling all sort of dust, sand and particles. This technological solution presents the following benefits: (i) the maintenance cost is driven down by reducing washing times, (ii) the water consumption is drastically diminished and (iii) the efficiency is increased since the average reflectance of the solar field remains higher. This work presents the behavior of a new anti-soiling coating with improved durability and high efficiency.

PH SENSITIVITY DEPENDENCY ON THE ANNEALING TEMPERATURE OF SPIN-COATED TITANIUM DIOXIDE THIN FILMS
摘要： Titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin films were fabricated on indium tin oxide (ITO) glass substrates using the spin coating technique and further were implemented as sensing membranes of the extended gate field effect transistor (EGFET) based pH sensor. The as-deposited thin films were annealed at different temperatures from 200 - 600 °C in room ambient for 20 min. The effects of different annealing temperatures on electrical and crystalline properties were analyzed by I-V two point probes measurement and X-ray diffraction respectively. Meanwhile, the surface morphology of thin films was observed by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). We then measured the transfer characteristics (ID-VG) of the TiO2/ITO sensing membrane using a semiconductor parametric device analyzer for sensor characterization. It was found that, TiO2/ITO sensing membrane annealed at 300 °C achieved higher sensitivity and good linearity of 51.48 mV/pH and 0.99415, respectively in the pH buffer solutions of 4, 7, 10, and 12. Thin film annealed at 300 °C gives higher conductivity thin film of 384.62 S/m. We found that the conductivity of TiO2/ITO thin films was proportional with the sensitivity of sensing membrane.
