Control and application of ultra-high voltage insulator cleaning and detecting robot

With the development of global energy Internet and demand for UHV transmission, uHV transmission lines will increase rapidly and become more and more important for national economic development. The uHV transmission lines will increase year by year and become increasingly important to the economic development of the country. It is necessary to study the cleaning and detection technology of transmission line insulators that the insulators of UHVDC transmission lines such as large leakage rate, low detection efficiency and difficult cleaning of insulators. Therefore, the development of uhv transmission line insulator hot-line cleaning robot and detection integration has important engineering significance and practical value to improve the level of the operation of the uhv power transmission engineering maintenance, safe and reliable operation of the protection of uhv transmission lines. In this paper, the research on the integrated robot for live cleaning and detection of uHV transmission line insulators will greatly promote the live operation of UHV transmission lines in China. It can be directly applied to the live operation of UHV DC and can be promoted nationwide.

An Array of On-Chip Integrated, Individually Addressable Capacitive Field-Effect Sensors with Control Gate: Design and Modelling

The on-chip integration of multiple biochemical sensors based on field-effect electrolyte-insulator-semiconductor capacitors (EISCAP) is challenging due to technological difficulties in realization of electrically isolated EISCAPs on the same Si chip. In this work, we present a new simple design for an array of on-chip integrated, individually electrically addressable EISCAPs with an additional control gate (CG-EISCAP). The existence of the CG enables an addressable activation or deactivation of on-chip integrated individual CG-EISCAPs by simple electrical switching the CG of each sensor in various setups, and makes the new design capable for multianalyte detection without cross-talk effects between the sensors in the array. The new designed CG-EISCAP chip was modelled in so-called floating/short-circuited and floating/capacitively-coupled setups, and the corresponding electrical equivalent circuits were developed. In addition, the capacitance-voltage curves of the CG-EISCAP chip in different setups were simulated and compared with that of a single EISCAP sensor. Moreover, the sensitivity of the CG-EISCAP chip to surface potential changes induced by biochemical reactions was simulated and an impact of different parameters, such as gate voltage, insulator thickness and doping concentration in Si, on the sensitivity has been discussed.
