In this study, lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6) particle-reinforced titanium matrix composites (PRTMCs, TC4/LaB6) were successfully manufactured using the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process. Thereafter, the effect of the mass fraction of LaB6 on the m...

Taking into consideration the inaccurate temperature predictions in traditional thermal models of power devices, we undertook a study on the temperature rise characteristics of heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) with a two-dimensional cross-se...

Microchannel flow boiling is an efficient cooling method for high-heat-flux electronic devices. To understand the flow boiling regime in a T-shaped microchannel, this paper prepared T-shaped microchannels of different sizes and designed an experiment...

Water electrolysis using a proton exchange membrane (PEM) holds substantial promise to produce green hydrogen with zero carbon discharge. Although various techniques are available to produce hydrogen gas, the water electrolysis process tends to be mo...

With the development of memristor theory, the application of memristor in the field of the nervous system has achieved remarkable results and has bright development prospects. Flux-controlled memristor can be used to describe the magnetic induction e...

Zr-based bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) have many unique properties. Due to their excellent performance and manufacturing process, they have become a research focus in the material science community. Electrolyte Jet Machining (EJM) is a non-contact ele...

This paper presents the design and experimental results of a long cavity length Nd:YAG laser with a large stable zone for water jet-guided laser (WJGL) applications. The design is based on the light transmission matrix and resonator stability conditi...

This paper investigates how the electromechanical response of MEMS/NEMS devices changes when the geometrical characteristics of their embedded flexural hinges are modified. The research is dedicated particularly to MEMS/NEMS devices which are actuate...

We present here a performance comparison of quantum-dash (Qdash) semiconductor amplifiers (SOAs) with three, five, eight, and twelve InAs dash layers grown on InP substrates. Other than the number of Qdash layers, the structures were identical. The e...

This study delves into the intricacies of ultraprecision machining, particularly in the context of machining optical freeform surfaces using Diamond Turning Machines (DTMs). It underscores the dynamic relationship between toolpath generation, hydrost...
