Abstract Forming and breaking a nanometer-sized conductive area are commonly accepted as the physical phenomenon involved in the switching mechanism of oxide resistive random access memories (OxRRAM). This study investigates a state-of-the-art OxRRAM device by in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Combining high spatial resolution obtained with a very small probe scanned over the area of interest of the sample and chemical analyses with electron energy loss spectroscopy, the local chemical state of the device can be compared before and after applying an electrical bias. This in-situ approach allows simultaneous TEM observation and memory cell operation. After the in-situ forming, a filamentary migration of titanium within the dielectric hafnium dioxide layer has been evidenced. This migration may be at the origin of the conductive path responsible for the low and high resistive states of the memory.

AbstractThis submitted paper presents the detailed description of the energy loss separation for dc and ac low-frequency magnetic fields of NiFeMo (supermalloy) compacted powder prepared by innovative method of smoothing the surfaces of individual particles. The positive impact of mechanical treatment method on domain wall displacement is explained on the basis of Landgraf approach for dc loss analysis, and the effective dimension for eddy current in ac magnetic field is explained according to Bertotti approach for core loss analysis.

The performance of many materials systems depends on our ability to control the distribution of atoms on a nanometre or sub-nanometre scale within those systems. This is as true for steels as it is for semiconductors. A key requirement for improving their performance is the ability to determine the distribution of the elements resulting from processing the material under a given set of conditions. Analytical electron microscopy (AEM) provides a range of powerful techniques with which to investigate this distribution. By combining information from different techniques, many of the ambiguities of interpretation of the data from an individual technique can be eliminated. The electron energy loss near edge structure (ELNES) present on an ionisation edge in the electron energy loss spectrum reflects the local structural and chemical environments in which the particular atomic species occurs. Thus it is a useful contribution to the information available. Since a similar local environment frequently results in a similar shape, ELNES is useful as a “fingerprint”.

There are many kinds of energy loss indicators in power plant, and there are some relevance among the various indicators. So extraction of the key indicators plays an important role between in energy loss analysis of power plants and optimal management of thermal power plants. Based on the characteristics of these indicators, the idea of rough sets was applied to the energy loss analysis of thermal power plants, then we proposed a new algorithm -- use fuzzy C means algorithm (FCM) to discrete cluster the energy loss indicators of thermal power plant, and then analysis simplified the results with algorithm Johnson. Real experiments (Chaozhou 1,2 and Ningde 3,4 assembling units which of the same type in the SIS system under the THA working condition)’ results had proved high accuracy and valuable of the algorithm.

Amount of heat transfer is the primary concern in a heat exchanger design. The amount of energy that has been destroyed during the heat exchange process has been investigated by introducing a new dimensionless number. Analyises of simpler systems are often useful to understand more important features of complex pattern forming processes in various field of science and technology. The entropy generation have been studied by use of new dimensionless number . This number defined as the ratio of total energy loss to total heat transfer across the duct length. The temperature dependence on the viscosity is taken into consideration and results have been derived for various L/D ratio, nozzle angles and inlet temperature.
