文摘Semiconductors and related fields today hold vast application prospects.The semiconductor wafer fabrication process involves steps such as substrate preparation and epitaxy,which occur in high-temperature corrosive environments.Consequently,components like crucibles,susceptors and wafer carriers require carbon-based materials such as graphite and carbon-carbon composites.However,traditional carbon materials underperform in these extreme conditions,failing to effectively address the challenges.This leads to issues including product contamination and shortened equipment lifespan.Therefore,effective protection of carbon materials is crucial.This paper reviews current research status on the preparation methods and properties of corrosion-resistant coatings within relevant domestic and international fields.Preparation methods include various techniques such as physical vapor deposition(PVD),chemical vapor deposition(CVD)and the sol-gel method.Furthermore,it offers perspectives on future research directions for corrosion-resistant coated components in semiconductor equipment.These include exploring novel coating materials,improving coating preparation processes,enhancing coating corrosion resistance,as well as further investigating the interfacial interactions between coatings and carbon substrates to achieve better adhesion and compatibility.
文摘In this paper a fully parametrized finite element simulation model of the stator bar end is created using the COMSOL Multiphysics.The model allows conducting the comparison of different corona protection structures’design,various materials properties,and finally optimizing the corona protection system.Several samples of SiC based nonlinear conductivity materials for corona protection were fabricated in laboratory and then investigated.The conductivity dependencies on electric field(0.05 to 1 kV/mm)and temperature(20 to 155℃)were measured.By comparing the heat-resistant grades of the corona protection material and the insulating material,the maximum working temperature of the corona protection material corresponds to the heat-resistant grade F of the insulating material.As the temperature increases,the nonlinear characteristics of the corona protection material in the experiment decrease dramatically,reducing the heat-resistant grade of the corona protection material.The decrease in the nonlinear characteristics of the corona protection material at the maximum operating temperature causes the maximum electric field strength at the end of the HV rotating machines end corona protection(ECP)exceeding the corona discharge electric field strength,resulting in corona phenomenon.

文摘Energetic materials,characterized by their capacity to store and release substantial energy,hold pivotal significance in some fields,particularly in defense applications.Microfluidics,with its ability to manipulate fluids and facilitate droplet formation at the microscale,enables precise control of chemical reactions.Recent scholarly endeavors have increasingly harnessed microfluidic reactors in the realm of energetic materials,yielding morphologically controllable particles with enhanced uniformity and explosive efficacy.However,crucial insights into microfluidic-based methodologies are dispersed across various publications,necessitating a systematic compilation.Accordingly,this review addresses this gap by concentrating on the synthesis of energetic materials through microfluidics.Specifically,the methods based on micro-mixing and droplets in the previous papers are summarized and the strategies to control the critical parameters within chemical reactions are discussed in detail.Then,the comparison in terms of advantages and disadvantages is attempted.As demonstrated in the last section regarding perspectives,challenges such as clogging,dead zones,and suboptimal production yields are non-ignoble in the promising fields and they might be addressed by integrating sound,optics,or electrical energy to meet heightened requirements.This comprehensive overview aims to consolidate and analyze the diverse array of microfluidic approaches in energetic material synthesis,offering valuable insights for future research directions.

文摘Transient electronics is a versatile tool that finds applications in various fields,including medical biology,environmental protection,and data information security.In the context of data protection,the traditional passive degradation transient mode is being replaced by the active destruction mode,which features a short self-destruction time and provides greater resistance to recovery.This article presents an overview of recent progress in transient electronics,assessing the benefits and suitability of varying transient mechanisms.The article also analyses the influence of transient electronics on military security while emphasizing the advantages of implementing energetic materials.Besides,the article introduces energetic transient devices and evaluates their ability to support the autonomous operation of transient electronic devices.
文摘The pressure and temperature increase resulting from the impact of different threats onto target materials is analyzed with a unified laboratory-scale setup.This allows deriving qualitative information on the occurring phenomenology as well as quantitative statements about the relative effects sizes as a function of target material and threat.The considered target materials are steel,aluminum,and magnesium.As threats,kinetic energy penetrator,explosively formed projectile,and shaped charge jet are used.For the investigated combinations,the measured overpressures vary by a factor of up to 5 for a variation of the material,by a factor of up to 7 for a variation of the threat,and by a factor larger than 15for a simultaneous variation of both.The obtained results as well as the experimental approach are relevant for the basic understanding of impact effects and risks due to material reactivity.The paper combines two main aims.Firstly,to provide a summary of own prior work in a coherent journal article and,secondly,to review and discuss these earlier results with a new perspective.

文摘The present study introduces a screw-pressing charging method to tackle deficiencies in automation and charge uniformity during the melt-casting of polymer-based energetic materials.To ensure the safety of the experiments,this study used inert materials with similar physical properties to partially substitute for the actual energetic components in the preparation of simulant materials.By thoroughly analyzing slurry physical properties,a simulation framework and an extensive performance evaluation method were developed.Such tools guide the design of the structure and configuration of process parameters.Results demonstrate that employing the Pin element significantly enhances radial mixing within the screw,minimizes temperature variations in the slurry,and improves both efficiency and safety in the mixing process.Further,adjustments such as widening the cone angle of the barrel,modifying the solid content of the slurry,and varying the speed of the screw can optimize the mechanical and thermal coupling in the flow field.These adjustments promote higher-quality slurry and create a safer production environment for the extrusion process.

文摘Zirconium,titanium,and other hexagonally close-packed(HCP)metals and their alloys are representative high specific strength,high reaction enthalpy,and high thermal conductivity structural materials.In this study,two typical HCP metals,zirconium,and titanium,were applied to reactive materials(RMs)to prepare Zr/PTFE/W RMs and Ti/PTFE/W RMs,validating the feasibility of HCP metal/PTFE/W RMs.The impact response process of typical HCP metal/PTFE/W RMs under high-velocity dynamic loads was studied using shock equations of state(EOS)based on porous mixtures and chemical reaction kinetics equations.An improved hemispherical quasi-sealed test chamber was employed to measure the energy release characteristic curves of 10 types of Zr/PTFE/W RMs and Ti/PTFE/W RMs under impact velocities ranging from 500 m/s to 1300 m/s.The datasets of the impact-induced energy release characteristics of HCP metal/PTFE/W RMs were established.Additionally,the energy release efficiency of HCP metal/PTFE/W RMs under impact was predicted using the support vector regression(SVR)kernel function model.The datasets of Zr/PTFE/W RMs and Ti/PTFE/W RMs with W contents of 0%,25%,50%,and 75%were used as test sets,respectively.The model predictions showed a high degree of agreement with the experimental data,with mean absolute errors(MAE)of 4.8,6.5,4.6,and 4.1,respectively.
