The influence of the temperature of insulation oil on the results of measurements of the acoustic emission signals generated by partial discharges
2005
The subject matter of this paper refers to the improvement of the acoustic emission method (AE) used for evaluation of partial discharges (PDs) generated in paper-oil insulation systems of power appliances. The paper presents the measurement and analysis results of the AE signals generated by partial discharges of the surface type (SPDs). The AE signals were measured on the surface of a transformer tub using a broad-band contact transducer, and then they were subject to a time-frequency analysis. The measurements were taken while heating transformer oil in the range from 30 to 85°C with gradation of every 5°C. For time runs, amplitude and energy density spectra the descriptor values that ch…
Parameters of microdischarges occuring at surfaces of repolarized ferroelectrical materials
1993
Parameters of the microdischarges occuring at the surfaces of the repolarized ferroelectric materials have been investigated. It has been found that in the case of BaTiO3ceramic the number of microdischarges increases linearly with increasing repolarizing voltage Upp, the photoelectric parameters of individual discharges being unchanged. The photoelectric and current parameters for system with TGS are very similar but the dependence of the amplitude of the current pulses on the repolarizing voltage differs distinctly from that for BaTiO3.
Temperature Sensor Based on Ge-Doped Microstructured Fibers
2009
The fundamental mode cutoff properties of Ge-doped microstructured fibers, filled with a liquid, permit the implementation of wavelength- and amplitude-encoded temperature sensors with an ultra-high sensitivity. The cutoff wavelength changes with temperature, and the thermo-optic coefficient of the liquid determines the sensitivity of the sensor. Sensitivity as high as 25 nm/∘Cis reported. In addition, simple amplitude interrogation techniques can be implemented using the same sensor heads.
Evidence for the verwey transition in highly nonstoichiometric nanometric fe-based ferrites
2001
The nanometric scale allows an investigation of the Verwey transition: the impact of varying degree of oxidation of Fe cations on this transition was studied by means of zero-field-cooled superconducting quantum interference device measurements in nanometric highly nonstoichiometric particles of pure and Ti-substituted magnetite synthesized using soft chemistry route. It is clearly shown that (i) there is a shift of the transition towards higher temperatures for nanometer scaled compounds and (ii) the amplitude, the temperature, and the order of the transition are only depending on the number of ${\mathrm{Fe}}^{2+}{/\mathrm{F}\mathrm{e}}^{3+}$ pairs in octahedral coordination.
Mechanism for ultrafast electric-field driven skyrmion nucleation
2021
We show how a Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction can be generated in an ultrathin metal film from a femtosecond pulse in electric field. This interaction does not require structural inversion-symmetry breaking, and its amplitude can be tuned depending on the amplitude of the field. We perform first-principles calculations to estimate the strength of the field-induced magnetoelectric coupling for ferromagnetic Fe, Co, and Ni, and antiferromagnetic Mn, as well as FePt and MnPt alloys. Last, using atomistic simulations, we demonstrate how an isolated antiferromagnetic skyrmion can be coherently nucleated from the collinear background by an ultrashort pulse in electric field on a hundred-femtose…
An analog electronic interface to measure electrical conductivity in liquids
2005
Abstract Measuring conductivity in aqueous solutions is a problem which is not easy to solve due to the differences in mass and mobility that exist between ions conduction and electrons. Additionally, it is necessary to keep in mind the interaction processes electrode-solution. As a consequence, the electrolytic conductivity cell has to be polarized with alternating voltage of adequate amplitude and frequency in order to extract the correct information. In this paper an electronic conditioning circuit is presented which converts electric conductivity into a value of continuous voltage. A hardware solution is proposed to do the conductivity temperature compensation. Experimental results obta…
Isotopic Effect In Extended X-Ray-Absorption Fine Structure of Germanium
2008
Extended x-ray absorption fine structure has been measured on two powdered samples of 70Ge and 76Ge as a function of temperature from 20 to 300 K. The effect of isotopic mass difference on the amplitude of relative atomic vibrations is neatly evidenced by the temperature dependence of the difference of Debye-Waller factors. The isotopic effect is also detected on the difference of nearest-neighbor average ineratomic distances, thanks to a resolution better than 10 fm. (DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.100.055901)
Demonstration of a fiber optical communication system employing a silica microsphere-based OFC source.
2021
The fabrication of microsphere resonators and the generation of optical frequency combs (OFC) have achieved a significant breakthrough in the past decade. Despite these advances, no studies have reported the experimental implementation and demonstration of silica microsphere OFCs for data transmission. In this work, to the best of our knowledge, we experimentally for the first time present a designed silica microsphere whispering-gallery-mode microresonator (WGMR) OFC as a C-band light source where 400 GHz spaced carriers provide data transmission of up to 10 Gbps NRZ-OOK modulated signals over the standard ITU-T G.652 telecom fiber span of 20 km in length. A proof-of-concept experiment is …
Pseudo-stochastic multiple-pulse excitation in dielectric spectroscopy: application to a relaxor ferroelectric
2003
The nonlinear dielectric response of a lead titanate-doped lead magnesium niobate relaxor ferroelectric was studied using pseudo-stochastic binary electrical field excitation. The polarization was recorded for various pulse spacings and electrical field amplitudes. The decay of the field-polarization cross-correlation function could be accelerated by increasing the amplitude of the pulse fields. The extension of these experiments in order to record multidimensional dielectric spectra is illustrated.
A neutron tomography study: Probing the spontaneous crystallization of randomly packed granular assemblies
2018
We study the spontaneous crystallization of an assembly of highly monodisperse steel spheres under shaking, as it evolves from localized icosahedral ordering towards a packing reaching crystalline ordering. Towards this end, real space neutron tomography measurements on the granular assembly are carried out, as it is systematically subjected to a variation of frequency and amplitude. As expected, we see a presence of localized icosahedral ordering in the disordered initial state (packing fraction around 0.62). As the frequency is increased for both the shaking amplitudes (0.2 and 0.6 mm) studied here, there is a rise in packing fraction, accompanied by an evolution to crystallinity. The ext…
