Published: August 2012

We propose an optical sensor by integrating a circular-hole defect with an etched diffraction grating spectrometer based on amorphous silicon photonic platforms. There are some superiorities of this device, such as high sensitivity (~10000 nm/RIU), and ability to deliver component analysis from the near-infrared spectrum by using the integrated spectrometer. As application example, the chip is used for distinguishing similar biodiesel types and accurately determining their concentrations in a diesel oil mixture.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study focuses on the mechanical properties of biphenylene, a promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries, by examining how it behaves under stress, especially when lithium ions are inserted or extracted.
  • - Molecular dynamics simulations were used to analyze the effects of different types of near-circular hole defects (circular, square, hexagonal, octagonal) in biphenylene, revealing that these defects have similar mechanical properties despite their shapes.
  • - The research concluded that the area of the defect is more influential on the mechanical properties of biphenylene than the specific shape of the defect, which could inform future developments in two-dimensional materials.

In this paper, the uniaxial compression damage characteristics of specimens are analyzed containing holes using PFC2D. In addition, the crack propagation, stress distribution and energy development characteristics of the specimens were systematically discussed. The findings indicate that the strength parameters of various specimens drop initially and then increase with increasing center point connecting angle, in comparison to intact rock.

To better understand the effect of the size of hole defects on the mechanical properties of a rock mass, the two-dimensional particle flow discrete element code (PFC2D) is applied to establish rock mass models with single circular hole defects of different diameters. Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) tests are conducted on each model by only taking the defect size (area) as a variable. This study analyzes each model's stress-strain, contact force chain, crack evolution, meso-damage and failure, and mechanical properties.

L-shape triple defects in a phononic crystal for broadband piezoelectric energy harvesting.

Nano Converg

School of Advanced Materials Science & Engineering, Sungkyunkwan University, Suwon, 16419, Republic of Korea.

This study proposes a phononic crystal (PnC) with triple defects in an L-shape arrangement for broadband piezoelectric energy harvesting (PEH). The incorporation of defects in PnCs has attracted significant attention in PEH fields owing to properties such as energy localization and amplification near the defect. Several studies have been conducted to enhance output electric power of PnC-based PEH systems with single defects.
