A numerical simulation study accounting for trap and defect effects on the current-voltage characteristics of a 4H-SiC-based power metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) is performed in a wide range of temperatures and bias conditions. In particular, the most penalizing native defects in the starting substrate (i.e., EH6/7 and Z1/2) as well as the fixed oxide trap concentration and the density of states (DoS) at the 4H-SiC/SiO2 interface are carefully taken into account. The temperature-dependent physics of the interface traps are considered in detail. Scattering phenomena related to the joint contribution of defects and traps shift the MOSFET threshold voltage, reduce the channel mobility, and penalize the device current capabilities. However, while the MOSFET on-state resistance (RON) tends to increase with scattering centers, the sensitivity of the drain current to the temperature decreases especially when the device is operating at a high gate voltage (VGS). Assuming the temperature ranges from 300 K to 573 K, RON is about 2.5 MΩ·µm2 for VGS > 16 V with a percentage variation ΔRON lower than 20%. The device is rated to perform a blocking voltage of 650 V.

The reaction between methylacetylene and hydrogen over unsupported nickel, copper, and their alloys has been investigated in a static constant volume system between 20 and 220 °C for a wide range of reactant ratios. The order of reaction with respect to hydrogen was one and nearly independent of temperature. While the order of reaction with respect to methylacetylene over nickel catalyst was slightly negative and temperature dependent, it was always positive and nearly independent of temperature for copper and copper-rich alloys. Selectivity was independent of initial hydrogen pressure for nickel and copper only; for others it decreased rapidly with increasing hydrogen pressure. The overall activation energy varied between 9 and 21.2 kcal/g mole. Selectivity and extent of polymerization increased with increasing amount of copper in the alloy.

II-VI inorganic/organic heterostructures consisting of ZnSe and tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3) were prepared by electron beam evaporator. Alq3 layer with 20 nm was grown between 200-nm ZnSe layers. Photoluminescence measurement was conducted at various temperatures in order to investigate the important temperature-dependent parameters of this structure. PL spectra revealed thermal population of exciton state and the change in PL quantum efficiency of the film.

Lanthanum calcium based perovskites are found to be advantageous for the possible applications in magnetic sensors/reading heads, cathodes in solid oxide fuel cells, and frequency switching devices. In the present investigation La0.3Ca0.7MnO3 perovskites were synthesised through solid state reaction and sintered at four different temperatures such as 900, 1000, 1100 and 1200˚ C. X-ray powder diffraction pattern confirms that the prepared La0.3Ca0.7MnO3 perovskites have orthorhombic structure with Pnma space group. Ultrasonic in-situ measurements have been carried out on the La0.3Ca0.7MnO3 perovskites over wide range of temperature and elastic constants such as bulk modulus of the prepared La0.3Ca0.7MnO3 perovskites was obtained as function of temperature. The temperature-dependent bulk modulus has shown an interesting anomaly at the metal-insulator phase transition. The metal insulator transition temperature derived from temperature-dependent bulk modulus increases from temperature 352˚ C to 367˚ C with the increase of sintering temperature from 900 to 1200˚ C.

Abstract In the framework where the strong coupling is dynamical, the QCD sector may confine at a much higher temperature than it would in the Standard Model, and the temperature-dependent mass of the QCD axion evolves in a non-trivial way. We find that, depending on the evolution of ΛQCD, the axion field may undergo multiple distinct phases of damping and oscillation leading generically to a suppression of its relic abundance. Such a suppression could therefore open up a wide range of parameter space, resurrecting in particular axion dark-matter models with a large Peccei-Quinn scale fa ≫ 1012 GeV, i.e., with a lighter mass than the standard QCD axion.

Low-order, explicit models of lithium ion cells are critical for real-time battery management system (BMS) applications. This paper presents a seventh-order, electrolyte enhanced single particle model (ESPM) with electrolyte diffusion and temperature dependent parameters (ESPM-T). The impedance transfer function coefficients are explicit in terms of the model parameters, simplifying the implementation of temperature dependence. The ESPM-T model is compared with a commercially available finite volume based model and results show accurate matching of pulse responses over a wide range of temperature (T) and C-rates (I). The voltage response to 30 s pulse charge–discharge current inputs is within 5% of the commercial code for 25 °C<T<50 °C at I≤12.5C and -10 °C<T<50°C at I≤1C for a graphite/nickel cobalt manganese (NCM) lithium ion cell.

&lt;p&gt;Taylor&amp;#8217;s frozen turbulence hypothesis is the most critical assumption through which time-resolving sensors may be used to derive statistics of the turbulent spatial field. Namely, it relates temporal autocorrelation to spatial correlation via the mean wind speed and is invoked in almost all boundary layer field work. Nevertheless, the conditions and scales over which Taylor&amp;#8217;s hypothesis is valid remain poorly understood in the atmospheric boundary layer.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;As part of the Namib Turbulence Experiment (NamTEX) campaign in March 2020, a pseudo-3D fibre-optic distributed temperature sensing (DTS) array was installed within a 300 x 300 m area in the Namib desert. The array is X-shaped in plan view and contains 16 measurement heights from 0.45 m to 2.85 m. Fibre-optic sensing provides air temperature measurements at unprecedented spatio-temporal density (0.25 m horizontally, 0.17 m vertically, and 1 Hz) and was coupled with a vertical array of traditional sonic anemometer point measurements to investigate the relationship between spatial and temporal temperature fields. The Namib provides an ideal location for fundamental boundary layer research: homogenous flat surfaces, no vegetation, little moisture, strong solar forcing, regular and repeated clear-sky conditions, and a wide range of atmospheric stabilities.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Using the NamTEX DTS array we present the first field investigation of Taylor&amp;#8217;s hypothesis that considers boundary layer stability and is independent of wind direction. A novel method of 2d horizontal cross-correlation between all possible points of a single height of the DTS is employed to produce spatial &amp;#8216;maps&amp;#8217; of the turbulent flow, whose velocity, direction, and size may be tracked through time.&lt;/p&gt;

This paper presents the optical temperature dependent properties, over a wide range of temperatures from 4 to 300 K, of new CdSe/CdS core/shell colloidal quantum dots (QDs) with varying shell thickness coated and annealed at low temperature. It was demonstrated that low temperature coating and annealing processes enhanced the photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield accompanied by variation in the QDs structure, formation of an alloyed interface layer, suppression of the number of defects at the CdSe/CdS interface, band gap energy red-shift, narrowing of CdS longitudinal optical phonon band, and decrease of the PL inhomogeneous broadening parameter.
