High Speed Analysis

High-power positionally stabilized sparks were used to sample several types of ferrous alloys. The power was increased by sparking at repetition rates up to 1920 sparks/s and peak discharge currents up to 800 A. The signal/background ratios of several spectral lines were measured photographically and photoelectrically, while the power was varied and the number of coulombs held constant. The coulombs were measured by gated integration of the discharge current waveform. Analysis time decreased by a factor of 16 while the signal/background ratio for sample spectral lines decreased by a factor of 2.5.

Optical Emission Spectra

A computer-controlled densitometer for data acquisition and high speed analysis of photographically recorded optical emission spectra has been developed. The instrument scans and digitizes spectra and stores the data sequentially in computer memory. A high-resolution linear measurement transducer mounted on a Jarrell-Ash densitometer monitors the plate position as the spectrum is scanned. The transducer measurement is accurate to within 0.001% over a range of about 340 mm on a glass photoplate. Computer algorithms for locating and identifying peaks and for calculating the wavelengths of spectral lines from their positions in the spectrum are described. With the use of a calibration curve based on the measured positions of three known spectral lines, the wavelength of any spectral line can be determined to within 0.005 nm, and the transmittance of a peak in the recorded spectrum can be measured to within 1%. The wavelengths and transmittances of all detectable spectral lines in the digitized emission spectrum are determined in less than two minutes.

Over the past decades, the combination of energy-dispersive analysis of X-rays and scanning electron microscopy has proved to be a powerful tool for fast and reliable elemental characterization of a large variety of specimens. The technique has evolved rapidly from a purely qualitative characterization method to a reliable quantitative way of analysis. In the last 5 years, an increasing need for automation is observed, whereby energy-dispersive analysers control the beam and stage movement of the scanning electron microscope in order to collect digital X-ray images and perform unattended point analysis over multiple locations.The Philips High-speed Analysis of X-rays system (PHAX-Scan) makes use of the high performance dual-processor structure of the EDAX PV9900 analyser and the databus structure of the Philips series 500 scanning electron microscope to provide a highly automated, user-friendly and extremely fast microanalysis system. The software that runs on the hardware described above was specifically designed to provide the ultimate attainable speed on the system.

In this study, we propose a non-contact 80 kW, 60,000 rpm coaxial magnetic gear (CMG) model for high speed and high power applications. Two models with the same power but different radial and axial sizes were optimized using response surface methodology. Both models employed a Halbach array to increase torque. Also, an edge fillet was applied to the radial magnetized permanent magnet to reduce torque ripple, and an axial gap was applied to the permanent magnet with a radial gap to reduce eddy current loss. The models were analyzed using 2-D and 3-D finite element analysis. The torque, torque ripple and eddy current loss were compared in both models according to the materials used, including Sm2Co17, NdFeBs (N42SH, N48SH). Also, the structural stability of the pole piece structure was investigated by forced vibration analysis. Critical speed results from rotordynamics analysis are also presented.

Background: The new progress in electronic devices has provided a great opportunity for advancing electrochemical instruments by which we can more easily solve many problems of interest for trace analysis of compounds, with a high degree of accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and selectivity. On the other hand, in recent years, there is a significant growth in the application of nanomaterials for the construction of nanosensors due to enhanced chemical and physical properties arising from discrete modified nanomaterial-based electrodes or microelectrodes. Objective: Combination of the advanced electrochemical system and nanosensors make these devices very suitable for the high-speed analysis, as motioning and portable devices. This review will discuss the recent developments and achievements that have been reported for trace measurement of drugs and toxic compounds for environment, food and health application.

Delayed Discharges

Delayed discharges due to electrical breakdown are observed in modulated pulsed pow er magnetron sputtering (MPPMS) plasma of titanium. The delayed discharge, which is remarkable with decreasing argon gas pressure, transforms the discharge current waveform from a standard modulated pulsed discharge current waveform to a comb-like discharge current waveform consisting of several pulses with high power. In addition, the delay times, consisting of statistical times and formative times in the delayed MPPMS discharges, are experimentally measured with the help of Laue plot analysis. The pressure dependence of delay times observed indicates that the delayed discharge behavior matches the breakdown characteristics well. In the present study, the delayed discharge dynamics of the comb-like discharge current waveform, which can be the origin of deep oscillation magnetron sputtering, are investigated based on measurement of the delay times and the characteristics of discharge current waveforms.
