The objective of this paper is an analysis of statistical discreteness and measurement capability of an eddy-current measurement system for residual stress assessment in stainless steel Grade 304 (SS304). Cylindrical specimens with 50 mm in diameter and 12 mm thickness were prepared to generate residual stress by Resistance Spot Welding at which the welding currents were set at 12, 14, and 16 kA. The eddy-current measurement system was including a probe with frequency range of 0.1 to 3 MHz and an eddy current flaw detector. They were performed by contacting the probe on the specimen. The measurements were performed particularly in the vicinity of heat affected zone (HAZ). In order to determine the results of the residual stress measurement, the calibration curves between static tensile stress and eddy current impedance at various frequencies were accomplished. The Measurement System Analysis (MSA) was utilized to evaluate the changed eddy-current probe impedance from residual stress. The results showed that using eddy current technique at 1 MHz for residual stress measurement was the most efficient. It can be achieved the Gauge Repeatability & Reproducibility %GR&R at 16.61479 and Number of Distinct Categories (NDC) at 8. As applied on actual butt welded joint, it could yield the uncertainty of ± 58 MPa at 95 % (UISO).

A comparative study has been made to analyze the impact of interstitial iron in minority carrier lifetime of multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si). It is shown that iron plays a negative role and is considered very detrimental for minority carrier recombination lifetime. The analytical results of this study are aligned with the spatially resolved imaging analysis of iron rich mc-Si.

Experiment setup of femtosecond laser pump probe was established, the time resolution of time-delay setting reached 67fs. By use of femtosecond laser with width of 30fs and wavelength is 796nm the dependence of transient change of reflectivity on delayed time in GaAs was measured by pump-probe method. By calculating the change of complex index of refraction (%n), free-carrier effect, lattice-temperature and carrier recombination contributions to relaxation curve was analyzed. When the carrier density N is 1.44×1018/cm3, free-carrier contribution to refraction index %nFC is -7.33×10-4, lattice-temperature %nLT is 0.85×10-4. Based on recombination rate equation, recombination lifetime of 980ps was deduced.
