Hydrolysis Mechanism Analysis of (Ca, Sr)AlSiN₃:Eu²⁺ Red Phosphor Aged Under Pressure Cooker Test and 85°C&85%RH Test: Kinetics Modeling and First-principles Calculation

The (Ca, Sr) AlSiN₃:Eu²⁺(CSASN:Eu) red phosphor is widely used to improve color rendering of high-power phosphor-converted lighting diode (pc-WLED), but it is always unstable under high temperature and high humidity environments. Therefore, the studies on the temperature and humidity resistance of red phosphors and their aging mechanism have...

Microstructure Analysis Based on 3D reconstruction Model and Transient Thermal Impedance Measurement of Resin-reinforced Sintered Ag layer for High power RF device

Resin-reinforced silver (Ag) sintering material is an effective and highly reliable solution for power electronics packaging. The hybrid material’s process parameters strongly influence its microstructure and pose a significant challenge in estimating its effective properties as a thin interconnect layer. This research demonstrates a novel 3D...

Morphodynamic changes in the Yangtze Estuary under the impact of the Three Gorges Dam, estuarine engineering interventions and climate-induced sea level rise

The estuarine turbidity maximum (ETM) in the Yangtze Estuary Delta (YED) is muddy by definition and lacks bottom undulations. However, since 2013, a remarkable change has occurred in the YED. Recent images detected by a multibeam echosounder system, SeaBat 7125, for the first time have confirmed widespread regions of subaqueous dunes in the...

Towards a restorative and liveable urban environment

In post-disaster reconstruction process, the physical aspect, such as shelter, food, medical service, etc. always attract great attention, whereas the psychological impact, which is of great significance as well, is among the lower hierarchy (Pynes and Tracy, 2007). This master thesis aims to build the connection between the built environment...
