Temperature has a remarkable effect on the structure of the surface and the interface of ZnO/α-Al2O3(0001). It is found that the Zn-hexagonal symmetry deflexion does not appear during the adsorption growth of ZnO at 400 ℃, and that the ZnO[10^-10] is parallel with the [10^-10] of the α-Al2O3(0001), which is favorable for forming ZnO film with the Zn-terminated surface. It is observed from simulation that there are two kinds of surface structures in the adsorption of ZnO at 600 ℃: one is the ZnO surface that has the Zn-terminated structure, and whose [10^-10] parallels the [10^-10] of the substrate surface, and the other is the ZnO[10^-10] //sapphire [11-20] with the O-terminated surface. The energy barrier of the phase transition between these two different surface structures is about 1.6 eV, and the latter is more stable. Therefore,the suitable temperature for the thin film growth of ZnO on sapphire is about 600 ℃, and it facilitates the formation of wurtzite structure containing Zn-O-Zn-O-Zn-O double-layers as a growth unit-cell. At 600 ℃, the average bond length of Zn-O is 0.190±0.01 nm, and the ELF value indicates that the bond of (substrate)-O-Zn-O has a distinct covalent character, whereas the (Zn)O-Al (substrate) shows a clear character of ionic bond. However, at a temperature of 800 ℃, the dissociation of Al and O atoms on the surface of the α-Al2O3(0001) leads to a disordered surface and interface structure. Thus, the Zn-hexagonal symmetry structure of the ZnO film is not observed under this condition.展开更多

The growth-front roughening processes of the μc-Si..H films were investi- gated by atomic force microscopy. According to the scaling theory, the growth exponent β≈0.67, the roughness exponent α≈0.80,and the dynamic exponent 1/z = 0.40 are obtained. These scaling exponents cannot be explained well by the known growth models. An attempt at Monte Carlo simulation has been made to describe the growth process of μc-Si: H film using a particle reemission model where the incident flux distribution,the type and concentration of growth radical, and sticking,reemission,shadowing mechanisms all contributed to the growing morphology.展开更多

Many studies have tackled the problem of parametric instability of a riser with constant tension. However, tension in the riser actually varies linearly from the top to the bottom due to the effect of gravity. This paper presents the parametric instability analysis of deepwater top-tensioned risers(TTR) considering the linearly varying tension along the length. Firstly, the governing equation of transverse motion of TTR under parametric excitation is established. This equation is reduced to a system of ordinary differential equations by using the Galerkin method. Then the parametric instability of TTR for three calculation models are investigated by applying the Floquet theory. The results show that the natural frequencies of TTR with variable tension are evidently reduced, the parametric instability zones are significantly increased and the maximum allowable amplitude of platform heave is much smaller under the same damping; The nodes and antinodes of mode shape are no longer uniformly distributed along the axial direction and the amplitude also changes with depth, which leads to coupling between the modes. The combination resonance phenomenon occurs as a result of mode coupling, which causes more serious damage.展开更多

The blasting experiment with different stemming lengths was carried out and the results show that the theoretical stemming length, which is 0.73 ~ 0.8 time of burden, is in the range of the experiential length, which is O. 63 - O. 88 time of burden. The blasting results of field experiments with theoretical stemming length are satisfactory, which shows the theoretical derivation and analysis are correct and reliable. The results will supply rock blasting with the theoretical gist of parameters design.展开更多
