This paper presents a novel thermopile chip in which the resonant cavity structure was fully utilized as an absorber by an optical design. The resonant cavity absorber structure was designed using Al as anthe bottom reflective metal layer, air as the intermediate dielectric layer, and SiO2/TiN/Si3N4 sandwich layers as the top absorption layer, while the bottom reflective metal (Al) was deposited on the cold junctions of the thermopile. The simulation and calculation results show that the thermopile chip with resonant cavity absorber structure not only has great infrared absorption in the wide infrared absorption range but also can effectively prevent the cold junctions from absorbing infrared radiation and inhibit the rise of temperature. As a result, the temperature difference between the hot junctions and the cold junctions is increased, and the responsivity of the thermopile chip is further improved. Moreover, the duty cycle of the thermopile chip is greatly improved due to the double-layer suspension structure. Compared with the traditional thermopile chip structure, the sizes of the thermopile chip with the resonant cavity absorber structure can be further reduced while maintaining responsivity and specific detectivity.

This paper presents a discontinuous space vector modulation (SVM) strategy for a three-level neutral point clamped (3L-NPC) inverter. The proposed scheme, calculation switching time of the 3L-NPC inverter is fully described. A mathematical analysis of the duty cycle is determined by utilizing the calculated switching time method. The main advantages of the proposed method are minimization of the number of commutations of switches and reduction of the switching losses. Simulated and calculation results are presented to verify the validity and effectiveness of the proposed modulation scheme.

Abstract In our work, we propose a novel temperature sensor design based on a two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystal resonant cavity structure designed to detect and monitor temperature under very harsh environmental conditions from 0 °C to 500 ºC. The sensitivity of the proposed structure is 109.8 pm/ºC, an ultra-high quality factor, high transmission efficiency and ultra-compact size. The characteristics of the proposed sensor under different temperatures are simulated using the Plane Wave Expansion (PWE) method and Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method to calculate, respectively, the Photonic Band Gap (PBG) and transmission efficiency. The results obtained show that the wavelength of the resonant cavity increases linearly with increasing temperature. Our sensor is suitable for applications based on nanotechnology.

Based on the theory of infrared absorption, a new kind of portable methane alarming device has been developed with the advantages that cost-low, maintenance-free, miniaturization, and integration. Intrinsically safe circuit is absolutely necessary, because the device is installed in the explosive gas environment. To improve the detection accuracy and increase the safety of the coal mine, the device’s intrinsically safe circuit has been designed. All parameters of the circuit are designed in accordance with IEC 60079-0-2007 Explosive atmospheres-Part 0: Equipment - General requirements and IEC 60079-11-2006 Explosive atmospheres-Part 11: Equipment protection by intrinsic safety “i”. The related analyses and calculation results show that this intrinsically safe circuit is workable and reliable.
