Kirkendall effect-induced uniform stress distribution stabilizes nickel-rich layered oxide cathodes

Nickel-rich layered oxide cathodes promise ultrahigh energy density but is plagued by the mechanical failure of the secondary particle upon (de)lithiation. Existing approaches for alleviating the structural degradation could retard pulverization, yet fail to tune the stress distribution and root out the formation of cracks. Herein, we report...

Multi-view Contour-constrained Transformer Network for Thin-cap Fibroatheroma Identification

Identification and detection of thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) from intravascular optical coherence tomography (IVOCT) images is critical for treatment of coronary heart diseases. Recently, deep learning methods have shown promising successes in TCFA identification. However, most methods usually do not effectively utilize multi-view...

Ultra-low-frequency radio astronomy observations from a Seleno-centric orbit: First results of the Longjiang-2 experiment

This paper introduces the first results of observations with the Ultra-Long-Wavelength (ULW) —- Low Frequency Interferometer and Spectrometer (LFIS) on board the selenocentric satellite Longjiang-2. We present a brief description of the satellite and focus on the LFIS payload. The in-orbit commissioning confirmed a reliable operational status...

First demonstration of l-band high-power limiter with gan schottky barrier diodes (Sbds) based on steep-mesa technology

Gallium nitride (GaN) has attracted increased attention because of superior material properties, such as high electron saturation velocity and high electrical field strength, which are promising for high-power microwave applications. We report on a high-performance vertical GaN-based Schottky barrier diode (SBD) and its demonstration in a...

High-power and broadband microwave detection with a quasi-vertical GaN Schottky barrier diode by novel post-mesa nitridation

We report a high-performance GaN Schottky barrier diode (SBD) on a sapphire substrate with a novel post-mesa nitridation technique and its application in a high-power microwave detection circuit. The fabricated SBD achieved a very high forward current density of 9.19 kA cm-2 at 3 V, a low specific on-resistance (RON,sp) of 0.22 mO cm2 and...

Random voids generation and effect of thermal shock load on mechanical reliability of light-emitting diode flip chip solder joints

To make the light-emitting diode (LED) more compact and effective, the flip chip solder joint is recommended in LED chip-scale packaging (CSP) with critical functions in mechanical support, heat dissipation, and electrical conductivity. However, the generation of voids always challenges the mechanical strength, thermal stability, and...

Multityped Community Discovery in Time-Evolving Heterogeneous Information Networks Based on Tensor Decomposition

The heterogeneous information networks are omnipresent in real-world applications, which consist of multiple types of objects with various rich semantic meaningful links among them. Community discovery is an effective method to extract the hidden structures in networks. Usually, heterogeneous information networks are time-evolving, whose objects...
