High temperature piezoelectric materials serving at harsh environment without failure are desired for structural health monitoring and/or non destructive evaluation of the modern aerospace structures at elevated temperatures (above 600°C). In this report, different high temperature piezoelectric crystals, including the langasite (LGS) type crystals and GaPO4 in trigonal system, melilite type and fresnoite...
This study compares VIIRS LST with ground in-situ observations from Baseline Surface Radiation Network (BSRN) and Global Monitoring Division (GMD) baseline observatories. The validation results present a close agreement between satellite estimation and ground observations with the accuracy about −0.4 K and −0.7 K, precision of 2.1 and 1.8 over BSRN CAB site and GOB site, respectively. A precision...
A sophisticated SoC chip that incorporates many design modules including 2 ARM-like CPUs, a dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) design, a master/slave temperature sensing system, and an on-chip test/debug platform is developed and implemented with TSMC 90 nm technology. Measurement results validate the functions and efficiencies of the whole chip.
Structural ordered langasite-type piezoelectric crystal Ca3Ta G a 3Si2O14(CTGS) possess excellent high temperature piezoelectric properties. In this work, large size(25mm in diameter and 80mm in length)CTGS single crystalswere grown by using the vertical Bridgman method. High resolution X-ray diffraction technique was applied to characterize the crystal quality, where the as-grown CTGS crystals were...
New rare-earth oxyborate crystals TmCOB were grown by using the Czochralski method. The piezoelectric coefficients for TmCOB were determined to be on the order of d11=1.7, d12=3.8, d13=-4.2, d15=-0.92, d24=4.9, d26=7.8, d31=-0.75, d32=-2.4, d33=2.2 and d35=-5.2 pC/N. The temperature dependence of electro-elastic propertieswereinvestigated from 20 to 900°C, where the temperature coefficients of the...
A primary-auxiliary temperature sensing scheme for system-on-a-chip application is proposed in this paper. Taking advantage of the high accuracy and linearity of the analog primary temperature sensors and low production cost of the digital auxiliary temperature sensors, this sensing scheme monitors multiple hotspots in a highly integrated system chip with small area and low power. A cost efficient...
La3Ga5.5Nb0.5O14 (LGN) and La3Ga5.5Ta0.5O14 (LGT) with trigonal 32 symmetry were grown by Czochralski (CZ) method. High Resolution X-Ray Diffraction (HRXRD) measurement was carried out on the as-grown LGN and LGT crystals for crystal quality evaluation. Frequency temperature dependent behaviors were investigated to explore the zero temperature coefficient of frequency (TCF) cuts at elevated temperature...
