Ren, Y. (author), Gao, J.R. (author), Hovenier, J.N.Higgins, R. (author), Zhang, W. (author), Bell, A. (author), Klein, B. (author), Klapwijk, T.M. (author)High-resolution heterodyne spectrometers operating at above 2 THz are crucial for detecting, e.g., the HD line at 2.7 THz and oxygen OI line at 4.7 THz in astronomy. The potential receiver technology is a combination of a hot electron bolometer (HEB) mixer and a THz quantum cascade laser (QCL) local oscillator (LO).Here we report the first...conference paper 2010

(author), Scarpas, Athanasios (author)Lignin, one of the most abundant natural polymers, has been extensively studied as liquid or solid additive in bituminous binders. Despite the fact the organosolv lignin in bitumen improves the overall resistance against oxidative aging, lignin could lead to binders of high thermal cracking sensitivity. In this study, a bio-based oil is...conference paper 2021

Hayton, D.J. (author), Gao, J.R. (author), Kooi, J.W. (author), Ren, Y. (author), Zhang, W. (author), De Lange, G. (author)We report on a method to stabilize a hot electron bolometer (HEB) mixer at 2.5 THz. The technique utilizes feedback control of the local oscillator (LO) laser power by means of a swing-arm actuator placed in the optical beam path. We demonstrate that this technique yields a factor of 50 improvement in the spectroscopic Allan variance time which...journal article 2012

Chen, Xianping (author), Ye, H. (author), Fan, Xuejun (author), Ren, Tianling (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author)Heat pipes (HPs) have received considerable attention in recent decades, especially in the field of cooling electronics, which requires the removal of added heat from an area of limited volume to the environment. Small HPs are widely used in electronic applications, which are normally limited by the compact structure and dimensions of the...journal article 2016

Zhang, Jing (author), Jia, Li (author), Menenti, M. (author), Zhou, Jie (author), Ren, Shaoting (author)Glacier and snow are sensitive indicators of regional climate variability. In the early 21st century, glaciers in the West Kunlun and Pamir regions showed stable or even slightly positive mass budgets, and this is anomalous in a worldwide context of glacier recession. We studied the evolution of snow cover to understand whether it could...journal article 2021

Zhang, Jing (author), Jia, Li (author), Menenti, M. (author), Ren, Shaoting (author)Monitoring glacier flow is vital to understand the response of mountain glaciers to environmental forcing in the context of global climate change. Seasonal and interannual variability of surface velocity in the temperate glaciers of the Parlung Zangbo Basin (PZB) has attracted significant attention. Detailed patterns in glacier surface...journal article 2021

Ren, Shaoting (author), Jia, Li (author), Menenti, M. (author), Zhang, Jing (author)Glacier surface albedo dominates glacier energy balance, thus strongly affecting the glacier mass balance. Glaciers in the Western Nyainqentanglha Mountains (WNM) experienced large mass losses in the past two decades, but long-term changes of glacier albedo and its drivers are less understood. In this study, we retrieved glacier albedo with...journal article 2023

(author), Dong, Chaofang (author)Corrosion jeopardizes the materials longevity and engineering safety, hence the corrosion rate needs to be forecasted so as to better guide materials selection. Although field exposure experiments are dependable, the prohibitive cost and their time-consuming nature make it difficult to obtain large dataset for machine learning. Here, we...journal article 2022
