Ancillary Services in Hybrid AC/DC Low Voltage Distribution Networks [PDF]

, 2019
In the last decade, distribution systems are experiencing a drastic transformation with the advent of new technologies. In fact, distribution networks are no longer passive systems, considering the current integration rates of new agents such as ...

LFA: A Lattice Fourier Analyzer for Quantitative In Situ EC‐STM of Adsorbate–Substrate Superstructures

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Although electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy provides atomic‐scale access to electrified interfaces, quantitative in situ and operando investigations suffer from drift‐induced distortions. This work introduces the Lattice Fourier Analyzer (LFA), which employs substrate‐anchored affine drift correction in reciprocal space to recover precise ...

Topological Point Defects in SmC* Liquid Crystals Under Mechanical Disturbance

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Tangetial air jet shear inducess island formation and nucleates topological point defects in uniform SmC films. Island bounded by edge dislocation loops shrink and transform into isolated point defects under continued shear. Mechanical perturbatio provides a controllable route for defect engineering in smectric liquid crystal thin films.

Quasi-Z-Source Three-Phase Voltage Source Inverter with Virtual Space Vector Modulation to Increase the Voltage Gain and for the Reduction of Common Mode Voltage

Power Electronics and Drives
A quasi-Z-source network is used to boost the DC bus voltage of a voltage source two-level H-bridge inverter to increase the voltage gain. With the increase in the DC bus voltage, the common mode voltage (CMV) also increases.

Switched-capacitor current-fed quasi-Z-source inverter

2014 14th Biennial Baltic Electronic Conference (BEC), 2014
Focus of this study is on a new switched-capacitor current-fed (CF) quasi-Z-source inverter (qZSI) topology, which is derived from the conventional CF qZSI. Each capacitor of the quasi-Z-source network is replaced by a switching-capacitor cell built with two capacitors and three diodes.

Experimental characterization of single screw expander performance under different testing conditions and working fluids [PDF]

, 2015
During the last years, one of the most popular ways to recover low-grade waste heat is the organic Rankine cycle (ORC). This technology is widely studied and continuously optimized and, as a result, there are many efficient installations available on the

Exploring the Potential of Microwave Annealing for Enhancing Si‐based GeSn Lasers

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We explore low‐thermal‐budget microwave annealing to enhance the performance of group‐IV GeSn lasers on Si. Microwave annealing under optimal conditions can simultaneously relax unwanted compressive strain and enhance the material quality of the GeSn active layer, thereby reducing the threshold and increasing the laser operating temperature.

DC-Link Quasi-Switched Boost Inverter With Improved PWM Strategy and its Comparative Evaluation

IEEE Access, 2020
Low voltage stress on the impedance source network devices is the main reason for the advent of DC-linked type quasi-switched boost inverters (DqSBIs). However, the DqSBI has become less attractive due to its low voltage gain. This paper presents a novel

Transducers Across Scales and Frequencies: A System‐Level Framework for Multiphysics Integration and Co‐Design

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...
