Multi-parameter sensor based on single Long Period Grating in Panda fiber for the simultaneous measurement of SRI, temperature and strain
摘要： In this work, a three-parameter sensor for the simultaneous measurement of surrounding refractive index (SRI), temperature and strain is presented. It is based on a single Long Period Grating (LPG) written in a polarization-maintaining Panda fiber, by means of a simple technique based on Electric Arc Discharge. For the purpose, it is performed the monitoring of the wavelength shift of three different resonances, each one associated to a different cladding mode. Moreover, the set of resonances is acquired for two polarizations of the input light, i.e. aligned to the slow and fast axis of the fiber. The three-parameter sensing is promoted by the fact that the resonance dips show different sensitivities to SRI, temperature and strain, which change their magnitudes and signs when the polarization is switched. It was demonstrated that the sensor can be applied to simultaneously measure SRI in range 1.33–1.40, temperatures comprised in 20–60 °C, and strain of hundreds of με. This device could find application in the fields of materials science and structural health monitoring.

Lorentzian demodulation algorithm for multimode polymer optical fiber Bragg gratings
摘要： For strain sensing applications, we develop a simple and accurate Lorentzian demodulation algorithm for fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) inscribed in multimode optical fibers. As multimode FBG spectra generally exhibit multiple peaks, simply tracking some particular spectral peaks (i.e., maximum detection) results in measurement failure when the strain is large. Here, using an FBG inscribed in a perfluorinated graded-index multimode polymer optical fiber, we experimentally evaluate the new method by comparing its performance with those of other demodulation algorithms, such as the maximum and centroid detection methods. Finally, using this method, we demonstrate the accurate measurement of strain of up to 1.0%.

Axial Micro-Strain Sensor Based on Resonance Demodulation Technology Via Dual-Mode CMECF
摘要： This paper firstly and experimentally demonstrates an in-fiber axial micro-strain sensing head, combined with a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) based on the concentric multilayer elliptical-core fiber (CMECF). This MZI with a high extinction ratio (about 15 dB) is successfully achieved with a CMECF-single mode fiber-CMECF (CSC) structure. The MZI sensor theory and the resonance demodulation technology are systematically described in this paper. In this CSC structure, two sections of the CMECF have a role as the mode generator and coupler, respectively. LP01 and LP11 even, which have similar excitation coefficients, are two dominated propagating mode groups supported in the CMECF. On account of the distinct dual-mode property, a good stability of this sensor is realized. The detected resonance in the MZI shifts as the axial micro-strain variated due to the strong interaction between higher order modes. High sensitivity of ~1.78 pm/με is experimentally achieved within the range of 0 με ? 1250 με, meanwhile, the intensity fluctuation is below 0.38 dB.

A highly stretchable, transparent and conductive wood fabricated by in-situ photopolymerization with polymerizable deep eutectic solvents
摘要： The rational design of high-performance flexible transparent electrically conducting sensor attracts considerable attention. However, these designed devices predominantly utilize glass and plastic substrates, which are expensive and not environmentally friendly. Here, novel transparent and conductive woods (TCWs) were fabricated by using renewable wood substrate and low-cost conductive polymer. Polymerizable deep eutectic solvents (PDES), acrylic-acid (AA)/choline chloride (ChCl), were used as backfilling agents and in-situ photopolymerized in the delignified wood, which endowed the materials with high transparency (transmittance of 90 %), good stretchability (strain up to 80 %), and high electrical conductivity (0.16 S m-1). The retained cellulose orientation and strong interactions between cellulose-riched template and poly(PDES) render the TCWs excellent mechanical properties. Moreover, the TCWs exhibited excellent sensing behaviors to strain/ touch, even at low strain. Therefore, these materials can be used to detect weak pressure such as human being’s subtle bending-release activities. This work provides a new route to fabricate functional composite materials and devices which have promising potential for electronics applications in flexible displays, tactile skin sensors and other fields.

Laser‐Assisted Strain Engineering of Thin Elastomer Films to Form Variable Wavy Substrates for Cell Culture
摘要： Endothelial and epithelial cells usually grow on a curved environment, at the surface of organs, which many techniques have tried to reproduce. Here a simple method is proposed to control curvature of the substrate. Prestrained thin elastomer films are treated by infrared laser irradiation in order to rigidify the surface of the film. Wrinkled morphologies are produced upon stress relaxation for irradiation doses above a critical value. Wrinkle wavelength and depth are controlled by the prestrain, the laser power, and the speed at which the laser scans the film surface. Stretching of elastomer substrates with a “sand clock”-width profile enables the generation of a stress gradient, which results in patterns of wrinkles with a depth gradient. Thus, different combinations of topography changes on the same substrate can be generated. The wavelength and the depth of the wrinkles, which have the characteristic values within a range of several tens of μm, can be dynamically regulated by the substrate reversible stretching. It is shown that these anisotropic features are efficient substrates to control polarization of cell shapes and orientation of their migration. With this approach a flexible tool is provided for a wide range of applications in cell biophysics studies.

Homogeneous Anodic TiO <sub/>2</sub> Nanotube Layers on Ti–6Al–4V Alloy with Improved Adhesion Strength and Corrosion Resistance
摘要： Hexagonal TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs) arrays are generally fabricated on Ti-based substrates for some biomedical purposes, but the TNT layers constructed on conventionally processed Ti alloys are usually inhomogeneous because the substrates typically contain both the α and β phases. In this work, high-pressure torsion (HPT) is applied to obtain a saturated single α-phase microstructure in Ti–6Al–4V alloys via strain-induced β phase dissolution. Homogeneous anodic TNT layers with three different morphologies, one-step nanoporous, one-step nanotubular, and two-step nanoporous structures, are electrochemically fabricated on the ultrafine-grained (UFG) Ti–6Al–4V alloy substrates after HPT processing, whereas the TNT layers prepared on coarse-grained substrates are normally inhomogeneous. More notably, the TNT layers show significantly improved adhesion strength to the UFG substrate as well as better corrosion resistance compared to those on the conventionally processed Ti–6Al–4V substrates. X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy in combination with electron backscatter diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy indicate that the improvement is due to a larger dislocation density in the UFG substrate as well as strain-induced β phase dissolution.

[Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering] Advances in Thin Films, Nanostructured Materials, and Coatings (Selected Papers from the 2018 International Conference on “Nanomaterials: Applications & Properties”) || Stain Effect on the Properties of Polar Dielectric Thin Films
摘要： Low cost scalable processing and substrates are critical for optimized polar dielectric performance of functional oxide thin ?lms if they are to achieve commercialization. Here, we present a comprehensive investigation of the role low-cost MgO, Al2O3, SrTiO3 and Si substrates on the structural and electrical properties of sol-gel derived SrTiO3 (ST) and K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNN) thin ?lms. The substrate is found to have a strong effect on the stress/stain state and, consequently, on the dielectric and ferroelectric response of the ?lms. A tensile stress induced in-plane by the thermal expansion mismatch between the substrates and the ?lms observed for ST and KNN ?lms deposited on platinized Al2O3 and Si substrates, respectively, lowers the relative permittivity and remanent polarization values in the parallel plate capacitor geometry. In contrast, a compressive stress/strain observed for ST ?lms deposited on MgO/Pt and KNN ?lms on SrTiO3/Pt substrates result in superior polarization and dielectric permittivity, corresponding to enhanced out-of-plane displacement of Ti4+ ions in ST ?lms and Nb5+ ions in KNN ?lms. It is thus demonstrated that for polycrystalline polar dielectric thin ?lms the relative permittivity and polarization may be optimized through an induced compressive stress state.

Measurement of proton quenching in a LAB-based liquid scintillator
摘要： In this paper, we propose a mathematical model to evaluate the transmission of Tuberculosis with drug-resistant strains and with drug-sensitive strains. Based on the epidemic data from Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, we first estimate the values of parameters in the model. Then the basic reproduction number of TB infection in the mainland China is calculated to be 1.0558. Since the basic reproduction number is greater than 1, Tuberculosis spreads as an endemic in mainland China. Through our investigations, the basic reproduction number associated with drug-sensitive strains is less than 1, but the number of individuals infected by drug-resistant strains will still increase quickly, thus the epidemic is not under control. Moreover, increasing the vaccination coverage rate for newborns is not always beneficial for controlling TB prevalence in China. Whether vaccination effect is positive or negative depends on the relapse rate from the recovered state to the infected state. In summary, improving sanitation conditions, introducing efficient measures to detect the disease, and keeping the public informed about how to lower the chance of being infected and the current epidemic situation are essential in slowing down or eliminating Tuberculosis transmission.

Wave Propagation of Porous Nanoshells
摘要： This study aims at investigating the wave propagation of porous nanoshells. The Bi-Helmholtz non-local strain gradient theory is employed in conjunction with a higher-order shear deformation shell theory, in order to include the size-dependent effects. The nanoshells are made of a porous functionally graded material (P-FGM), whose properties vary continuously along the thickness direction. A variational approach is here applied to handle the governing equations of the problem, which are solved analytically to compute the wave frequencies and phase velocities as function of the wave numbers. The sensitivity of the wave response is analyzed for a varying porosity volume fraction, material properties, non-local parameters, strain gradient length scales, temperature, humidity, and wave numbers. Based on the results, it is verified that the size-dependence of the response is almost the same to the one of plates, beams and tubes.

Growth Order-Dependent Strain Variations of Lateral Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Heterostructures
摘要： Understanding the heterojunction of a lateral heterostructured transition metal dichalcogenide (hTMD) is important to take advantage of the combined optoelectronic properties of individual TMDs for various applications but, however, is hampered by mingled effects from lattice mismatch and substrate interaction. Here, we systematically investigated the strain occurring at lateral hTMDs consisting of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2) prepared by chemical vapor deposition. Comparison of homologous TMDs and hTMDs from controlled growth order revealed systematic change in photoluminescence behavior depending on substrate interaction and relative lattice mismatch. Near the heterojunction, a TMD with a larger lattice constant (a) exhibits photoluminescence (PL) red-shift, whereas a TMD with smaller a shows an opposite trend owing to lattice-induced strain. These effects are augmented in a subtractive or additive manner by tensile strain from the substrate interaction. Moreover, comparison of PLs revealed that the shell region grown from the core edges exhibits weak substrate interaction contrasted by that of a shell region independently grown on a shell. This study provides detailed understandings of the heterojunction at a lateral hTMD for various applications.
