Researchers develop high-performance heterojunction pn diodes

A research team has developed high-performance diamond/ε-Ga2O3 heterojunction pn diodes based on ultrawide bandgap semiconductors, achieving breakdown voltages exceeding 3 kV. This work was published in Nano Letters. The research was led by Prof. Ye Jichun from the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), together with researchers from Zhengzhou University, Nanjing University, Harbin Institute of Technology, and Yongjiang Laboratory. Ultrawide bandgap semiconductors including Ga2O3 and diamond demonstrate notable potential for high-power applications due to their ultrawide bandgap, high breakdown field, radiation resistance, and carrier mobility. Bipolar devices, such as pn diodes and bipolar junction transistors, hold promising potential in the high-power electronics industry due to their ability to withstand reverse voltage currents.

Daily Tumblr Post (1/24)

Hey guys!

Finished the song, might release at some point soon.....I don't know

Now I need to work on character designs and stuff for the animation and voices

In other random news, I decided to start watching random MtF Voice Training videos, you know as one does and some of the stuff they were saying felt...familiar to me

For an explanation I love doing voice impersonations, and I can do some good ones of the following: + Elmo (When I'm not sick)

+ Mickey Mouse (When I'm not sick)

+ Kermit the Frog

+ Ernie (It's like Kermit the Frog, but less froggy)

+ Mario

+ Luigi

+ Toad (When I'm not sick, because despite Toad having a little gravel, it's a very high pitched gravel)

+ Waluigi

+ Stitch

+ *cough* *cough* Wilbur Soot *cough* *cough* (That ones only good for parodies now to poke fun at him)

And honestly I remembered this morning that I am able to do....a sensual anime girl voice, is it good? I don't know, I need to get people's opinions on it still. I try to make sure to utilize my knowledge of the Japanese language (Which is not a whole lot: "konichiwa", "Sensei", "Neku", "Roku") and I mainly only use "Konichiwa" and "Sensei" for it... I've said enough.

Anyways, I just need to learn how to do a voice impersonation of a female version of me, sounds like a fun challenge XD

I'm still on the fence about being trans and stuff depite the fact that I would love to be a girl and I feel like the world would probably be so much better for me if I was.... I'm still on the fence

Oh yeah! And there will be a part 2 to the NIMT bracket, so after this first one is finished expect another one (yay)

Anyways, this is where I say peace out! Hope you have a good day y'all! Peace!

Novel strategy proposed for massive water production on moon

Water plays a crucial role in human survival on the lunar surface, thus attracting extensive research attention. Prof. WANG Junqiang’s team at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has recently developed a new method of massive water production through reaction between lunar regolith and endogenous hydrogen.

 Research results of previous lunar explorations, like the Apollo and Chang’E-5 missions, have revealed the widespread presence of water on the Moon. However, the water content in lunar minerals is extremely low, ranging from 0.0001% to 0.02%. It remains challenging to extract and utilize water in situ on the Moon.

“We used lunar regolith samples brought back by the Chang’E-5 mission in our study, trying to find a way to produce water on the Moon,” said WANG.

The study revealed that when the lunar regolith is heated above 1,200 K with concave mirrors, one gram of molten lunar regolith can generate 51–76 mg of water. In other words, one ton of lunar regolith could produce more than 50 kg of water, which is equal to about a hundred 500-ml bottles of drinking water. This would be enough drinking water for 50 people for one day.

In addition, lunar ilmenite (FeTiO3) was found to contain the highest amount of solar wind-implanted hydrogen among the five primary minerals in the lunar regolith, owing to its unique lattice structure with sub-nanometer tunnels.

In-situ heating experiments indicated that hydrogen in lunar minerals is a substantial resource for producing water on the Moon. Such water could be used both for drinking and irrigating plants. In addition it could be electrochemically decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen, with hydrogen being used for energy and oxygen being essential for breathing.

These discoveries provide pioneering insights into water exploration on the Moon and shed light on the future construction of lunar research stations.

Results of the study were published in The Innovation.

A rather odd sight in the Waikato.

Two ex-RNZAF Unipower RE4s have ended up in Amokura(?) and are visible from the North Island Main Trunk Line (NIMT).

At the left is RNZAF Wigram's F13, which became Dunedin Airport's F2, and Wellington's F8.

At the right is RNZAF Ōhakea's F16 which became Dunedin Airport's F4 and Wellington's F??

How when and why they ended up in Amokura is beyond me, but I am very glad to have gotten pics of them.

If anyone's interested here's a study in the possibility for electrifying the North Island Main Trunk Line (NIMT), this is for freight service, I'll try find a proposal for a wider electrification of passenger services.

Levin to Wellington, one EMU at a time - Greater Auckland

Instead of upgrading the Wellington region's suburban rail electrification system from 1,500V DC to 25 kV 50 Hz AC like the rest of the North Island Main Trunk, electricity lines companies can do a cheaper way by extending the Hutt Valley lines from the Upper Hutt to Masterton and the Kapiti lines from Waikaene to Palmerston North and make the Palmerston North station bigger to have one side for the AC electrification for the NIMT and another side for the existing DC electrification powering the Matangi EMU's serving Wellington's suburban rail network.

Researchers find method to produce water on moon

Chinese researchers have developed a new method that could produce massive amounts of water through the reaction between lunar materials and hydrogen found in surrounding lunar soil. Their study was published in the journal The Innovation on Thursday.

Studies of the moon's water content play a vital role in planning for the construction of future scientific research bases on the moon.

Research results from previous lunar explorations have revealed that ice may exist in a natural state at the moon's north and south poles and in its permanently shadowed regions.

However, the natural water content in lunar minerals is extremely low, ranging from 0.0001 percent to 0.02 percent, according to the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering, making it challenging to extract and use water in situ on the moon.

Recently, researchers from NIMTE, the CAS' Institute of Physics, the China Academy of Space Technology, the Songshan Lake Materials Laboratory, Nanjing University and the Harbin Institute of Technology analyzed lunar samples brought back by the Chang'e-5 mission in 2020.

They found that solar winds had irradiated the minerals in lunar soil for billions of years and had stored an abundant amount of hydrogen. When heated to high temperatures, the hydrogen reacts with the iron oxides in the minerals to produce elemental iron and large amounts of water.

When the temperature rises above 1,000 C, the lunar soil melts and the water generated by the reaction is released as vapor.

The researchers confirmed that 1 gram of molten lunar material can generate 51 to 76 milligrams of water.

"In other words, 1 metric ton of lunar regolith (material) can produce more than 50 kilograms of water," said Wang Junqiang, a professor at NIMTE.

The researchers also investigated the differences in hydrogen content in different lunar minerals. Of the five primary minerals found in lunar material — ilmenite, plagioclase, olivine, pyroxene and lunar glass — ilmenite was found to contain the highest amount of solar wind-implanted hydrogen.

The in situ heating experiments indicated that the hydrogen retained in lunar minerals is a substantial resource for producing water on the moon.

High-dielectric-constant elastomer with low dielectric loss improves performance of smart wearables

High-dielectric-constant elastomers possess outstanding softness and stretchability. They allow a fast response and have a high reliability, and thus have been widely applied to wearable electronics. Prof. Hu Benlin's team at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has developed an intrinsic ferroelectric elastomer with a high dielectric constant and a low dielectric loss, which can effectively improve the performance and stability of smart wearables. The study is published in Advanced Materials. By introducing soft long-chain crosslinking structures into ferroelectric polymer materials with a "slight crosslinking" method, Hu's team had earlier achieved an intrinsic elastomer with high dielectric constants up to 35.4 at 1 kHz (54.2 at 100 Hz) that balances ferroelectricity and elasticity.
