Understanding ERE and iVOC Metrics for Graded CdSeTe Absorbers

PL-based external radiative efficiency (ERE) and implied open-circuit voltage (iVOC) metrics were introduced for thin-film solar absorbers to better understand the voltage deficit and diagnose losses in solar cells. Traditionally, elevated ERE and iVOC measurements are associated with diminished recombination within the solar device, a rationale heavily reliant on the assumption of a uniform bandgap and high carrier mobilities in the absorber. Recently, very low mobilities in CdSeTe absorbers (< 1 cm2/(V.s)) were measured using the light-induced transient grading technique. In this study, we use a detailed numerical model of iVOC to investigate the possible reasons of elevated iVOC in realistic CdSeTe absorbers with a graded Se profile. In particular, we examine how the bandgap nonuniformity and the reduced hole mobility in graded CdSeTe absorbers affect iVOC measurements. We show that high iVOC may result from inflated quasi-Fermi level splitting in the high-Se region in the front part of a CdSeTe absorber with slow hole transport. We reproduce the experimentally reported 360 mV increase in iVOC-VOC gap with reduced doping using a model with sub-1 cm2/(V.s) hole mobility in the high-Se region. Based on our results, we conclude that the iVOC metric (or ERE metric) should not be used as a sole metric of CdSeTe absorber quality. We discuss possible ways to extract useful information from the iVOC-VOC gap by supplementing the front-side illumination measurements with back-side illumination measurements.

Testing and Modeling of Functionally Graded Aluminum-Doped Zinc Oxide Using Spark Plasma Sintering and Discrete Powder Layers of Varying Composition

Functionally graded material (FGM) ZnO is made via spark plasma sintering/field-assisted sintering technique (SPS/FAST) by varying the Al dopant content along the z-axis or pressing direction. A wide range of Al content (0–5 wt%) is used by adding Al powder to nanosized ZnO powder. Thermoelectric (TE) measurements are done on the FGM and individual layers made separately. X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows two phases, ZnO and spinel phase (ZnAl 2 O 4 ). High-resolution Raman spectroscopy reveals doped ZnO and spinel phase (ZnAl 2 O 4 ) spatially and shows segregation in the layer with highest Al content. Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) reveals noticeable grain growth with decreasing Al content, and there is a common, random preferred orientation in all layers. The tested properties are used to simulate efficiency curves for a discretely graded, five-layer FGM as well as a homogenous material, where both graded structures provide an opportunity to widen the current density ranges and therefore the temperature range of useful energy conversion.

Investigation of W-SiC compositionally graded films as a divertor material

W-SiC composite material is a promising plasma-facing material candidate alternative to pure W due to the low neutron activation, low impurity radiation, and low tritium diffusivity of SiC while leveraging the high erosion resistance of the W armor. Additionally, W and SiC have high thermomechanical compatibility given their similar thermal expansion rates. The present study addresses the synthesis and performance of compositionally graded W-SiC films fabricated by pulsed-DC magnetron sputtering. Compositional gradients were characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and crystallographic information was obtained using electron diffraction and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Samples were exposed to L-mode deuterium plasma discharges in the DIII-D tokamak using the Divertor Material Evaluation System (DiMES). Post-mortem characterizations were performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and XRD. Electron diffraction and XRD showed that the compositionally graded W-SiC films were composed of polycrystalline W and amorphous SiC with amorphous W+SiC interlayers. No macroscopic delamination or microstructural changes were observed under mild exposure conditions. Here, this study serves as a preliminary examination of W-SiC compositionally graded composites as a potential candidate divertor material in future tokamak devices.

Strain-Mediated Sn Incorporation and Segregation in Compositionally Graded Ge 1– x Sn x Epilayers Grown by MBE at Different Temperatures

We investigated the process of Sn incorporation and surface segregation for compositionally graded Ge 1–x Sn x epilayers grown on high-quality Ge (001) substrates. Here, the growth resulted in pseudomorphic GeSn layers with a ~6% maximal Sn fraction at a constant substrate temperature. The maximal fraction of Sn was increased to 9.0% when the growth temperature was continuously lowered while increasing the Sn flux. The analysis of surface droplets and SIMS profiles of elemental composition give evidence of Sn rejection during the growth, potentially associated with a critical energy of elastic strain. The intentional reduction of the coherent strain by decreasing the Sn flux near the sample surface has been shown to trap a higher fraction of Sn in the Ge 1–x Sn x layer and lower surface segregation. Our results demonstrate that strain relief by misfit dislocations in the compositionally graded layer is inhibited, which leads to Sn segregation. Specifically, the compressive strain in the graded Ge 1–x Sn x epilayer is effectively “zero” near the interface with the Ge substrate and increases up to about –1.5 × 10 –2 near the surface. Thus, although the nucleation of a dislocation may reduce the compressive strain for the top region of the epilayer, it is not beneficial for the bottom region.

Sustainable potassium sorbate production from triacetic acid lactone in food-grade solvents

This study advances the production of potassium sorbate (KS) from triacetic acid lactone (TAL) utilizing food-grade solvents, ethanol (EtOH) and isopropyl alcohol (IPA). Here, we have previously demonstrated the route to produce KS from TAL in tetrahydrofuran (THF) as the main solvent, but the use of THF is associated with environmental and health risks especially for food applications. The process employs a catalytic approach in food-grade solvents and includes three main steps: hydrogenation, etherification and hydrolysis, and ring-opening hydrolysis to produce KS from TAL. In the synthesis of KS from TAL, the use of IPA leads to higher yields and reduced reaction times compared to EtOH. As a result, the overall reaction time in IPA was reduced to 35.7 h, compared to 42.1 h in our previous study using THF and EtOH, while achieving a comparable KS yield of 84% from TAL. The synthesized KS exhibits a trans-2, trans-4 geometrical configuration, identical to that of commercially available KS. Through techno-economic analysis (TEA) and life cycle assessment (LCA), we estimated full-scale production of KS from sugarcane with the developed process in IPA could achieve a minimum product selling price (MPSP) of $\$8.27$ per kg with a range of $\$7.06$–10.16 per kg [5th–95th percentiles from 6000 Monte Carlo simulations] and a carbon intensity (CI) of 13.7 [9.6–18.6] kg CO 2 -eq per kg. This study highlights the synthesis of KS from TAL using food-grade solvents, demonstrating improved economic viability and environmental sustainability compared to our previous research (MPSP of $\$9.68$ per kg [$\$8.47$–11.45 per kg] and CI of 16.2 [12.0–21.2] kg CO 2 -eq per kg), as the total required reaction decreases while achieving the comparable overall yield of KS from TAL.

Hamiltonian systems, Toda lattices, solitons, Lax pairs on weighted Z -graded graphs

In this study, we consider discrete one-dimensional nonlinear equations and present the procedure of lifting them to Z -graded graphs. We identify conditions that allow one to lift one-dimensional solutions to solutions on graphs. In particular, we prove the existence of solitons for static potentials on graded fractal graphs. We also show that even for a simple example of a topologically interesting graph, the corresponding non-trivial Lax pairs and associated unitary transformations do not lift to a Lax pair on the Z -graded graph.

Coupling 1D xRAGE simulations with machine learning for graded inner shell design optimization in double shell capsules

Advances in machine learning provide the ability to leverage data from expensive simulations of high-energy-density experiments to significantly cut down on computational time and costs associated with the search for optimal target designs. This study presents an application of cutting-edge Bayesian optimization methods to the one-dimensional (1D) design optimization of double shell graded layer targets for inertial confinement fusion experiments. This investigation attempts to reduce hydrodynamic instabilities while retaining high yields for future NIF experiments. Machine learning methods can use predictive physics simulations to identify graded layer designs from within the vast design space that demonstrate high predicted performance, including novel designs with high uncertainty in performance that may hold unexpected promise. By applying machine learning tools to the simulation design, we map the trade-off between 1D yield and instability, specifically isolating parameter ranges, which maintain high performance while showing significantly improved Rayleigh–Taylor stability over the point design. Furthermore, the groundwork laid in this study will be a useful design tool for future NIF experiments with graded layer targets.

A Subspace-Inclusive Sampling Method for the Computational Design of Compositionally Graded Alloys

Abstract Compositionally graded alloys, a subclass of functionally graded materials (FGMs), utilize localized variations in composition with a single metal part to achieve higher performance than traditional single material parts. In previous work [Kirk, T., Galvan, E., Malak, R., and Arroyave, R., 2018, “Computational Design of Gradient Paths in Additively Manufactured Functionally Graded Materials,” J. Mech. Des., 140, p. 111410. 10.1115/1.4040816], the authors presented a computational design methodology that avoids common issues which limit a gradient alloy’s feasibility, such as deleterious phases, and optimizes for performance objectives. However, the previous methodology only samples the interior of a composition space, meaning designed gradients must include all elements in the space throughout the gradient. Because even small amounts of additional alloying elements can introduce new deleterious phases, this characteristic often neglects potentially simpler solutions to otherwise unsolvable problems and, consequently, discourages the addition of new elements to the state space. The present work improves upon the previous methodology by introducing a sampling method that includes subspaces with fewer elements in the design search. The new method samples within an artificially expanded form of the state space and projects samples outside the true region to the nearest true subspace. This method is evaluated first by observing the sample distribution in each subspace of a 3D, 4D, and 5D state space. Next, a parametric study in a synthetic 3D problem compares the performance of the new sampling scheme to the previous methodology. Lastly, the updated methodology is applied to design a gradient from stainless steel to equiatomic NiTi that has practical uses such as embedded shape memory actuation and for which the previous methodology fails to find a feasible path.

Property-Graded Stainless Steel 316L by Selective Laser Melting: Characterization & Design

Abstract The purpose of this research work is to characterize and inform the design of (mechanical) property-graded bulk structures made from a single metallic alloy via a laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process, with an end goal of creating repeatable/reproducible functionally-graded additively manufactured (FGAM) parts. This paper specifically investigates the manufacture of stainless steel (SS) 316L structures via a pulsed selective laser melting (SLM) process, and the underlying causes of property variations (within a functionally-acceptable range) through various material characterization techniques. For this, a design of experiments spanning the volumetric energy density (VED) based process parameter design space was utilized to investigate the range of functionally-acceptable physical/mechanical properties achievable in SS 316L. Five sample conditions (made via different process parameter combinations) were down-selected for in-depth microstructure analysis and mechanical/physical property characterization; these were suitably selected to impart a wide and controllable property range (209–318 HV hardness, 90–99.9% relative density, and 154–211 GPa modulus). It was observed that property variations resulted from combinations of porosity types/amounts, martensitic phase fractions, and grain sizes. Based on these findings, property-graded standard test specimens were designed and manufactured for further investigation—tensile specimens having a monotonic hardness change along its gauge length, four-point bending specimens with varying elastic moduli as a function of the distance from the neutral axis, and Moore’s rotating beam fatigue specimens with moduli variations based on the distance from the center. Altogether, this work lays the foundation for understanding and designing the local and global mechanical performance of FGAM bulk structures.

Intermediate-Term Thermal Aging Effect Evaluation for Grade 92 and 316L at The LWR Relevant Temperature

Life extension of the existing nuclear reactors imposes accumulated damages, such as higher fluences and longer period of corrosion, to structural materials, which would result in significant challenges to the traditional reactor materials such as type 304 and 316 stainless steels. Advanced alloys with superior radiation resistance will increase safety margins, design flexibility, and economics for not only the life extension of the existing fleet but also new builds with advanced reactor designs. The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) teamed up with Department of Energy (DOE) on the Advanced Radiation Resistant Materials (ARRM) program, aiming to develop and test degradation resistant alloys from current commercial alloy specifications by 2021 to a new advanced alloy with superior degradation resistance in light water reactor (LWR)-relevant environments by 2024. Based on a comprehensive microstructure and property screening performed in Phase-1 of the ARRM program, a total of five alloys, together with 316L and X-750 as references, were down-selected for Phase-2 neutron irradiation studies. Because thermal aging could exert a synergistic effect on neutron irradiation due to the low neutron damage rate on the order of 10 –7 displacements per atom per second (dpa/s), Grade 92 (one of the five down-selected alloys) and two heats of 316L were selected in this task to study the effect of aging at 350°C for 12.5–12.7 kh on microstructure and mechanical properties. The aging time is approximately corresponding to 5 dpa neutron irradiation, which can be served as a reference for the 5-dpa-irradiated samples of the alloys to help understand the independent neutron damage influence on microstructure and mechanical properties. Optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used for microstructural characterization. Hardness, tensile, Charpy impact toughness, and fracture toughness in the ductile regime of the aged samples were examined. The aging of Grade 92 led to the formation of many Laves phase in sizes of ~100–200 nm and resulted in some reduction in hardness and yield/ultimate tensile strength with some increases in uniform and total plastic elongations, which may have helped the enhancement of Charpy impact toughness, e.g., ~4 J increase in upper-shelf energy and 20.5°C reduction in ductile-brittle transition temperature compared with the unaged condition. The fracture toughness of the aged Grade 92 showed decent toughness of ~303 MPa√m (K Jq ) with ~87 tearing modulus at 22°C, which reduced to ~241 MPa√m (~20% reduction) with ~75 tearing modulus at 300°C. The two heats of 316L are differentiated by their amounts of δ-ferrite, i.e., ~1 vol% in heat T1103 and ~4 vol% in heat N5B8. The two heats of 316L were subjected to 15% cold work (CW) as this condition is often used in nuclear reactors to help trapping radiation-induced defects and thus postpone the steady state swelling stage. The aging did not result in any noticeable microstructure changes, except for possible segregations at grain boundaries that need to be further investigated. The aging resulted in slight reduction in hardness of 316L-T1103 and slight increase in hardness of 316L-N5B8, which is consistent with their tensile testing results. The 15%CW might have introduced some inhomogeneity, resulting in large standard deviations in hardness, which were reduced after the aging. The aged 316L followed the same trend as the unaged condition for the strength and elongation results from the tensile testing. Minimum elongations appeared within ~300–600°C, above which the elongations seem to increase. Unlike the negligible or minor changes in microstructure, hardness and tensile results of the two heats of 316L, their fracture toughness showed noticeable difference. The aged 316L-T1103 showed good toughness of ~350 MPa√m with ~80 tearing modulus at 22°C, which reduced to ~271 MPa√m (~23% reduction) with ~83 tearing modulus at 300°C. In contrast, the aged 316L-N5B8 showed lower toughness of ~244 MPa√m with ~53 tearing modulus at 22°C, which reduced to ~180 MPa√m (~26% reduction) with ~31 tearing modulus at 300°C. The preliminary results indicate that the presence of high volume of δ-ferrite would noticeable impair fracture toughness although it may not influence hardness and tensile properties.

Material Characterization of Grade 91 Steel Welds using, Micro-resolution Ultrasonic Imaging System

Grade 91 (9Cr-1Mo-V) steel is a common structural material for fossil-fuel fired and nuclear power plants because of its creep strength and oxidation resistance at high temperatures. In this research, we studied the feasibility of correlating the high-resolution images obtained from the immersion ultrasonic imaging technique to microstructure regions in Grade 91 steel plate weldments. The high-resolution ultrasonic images presented in this paper were generated using a 20-MHz focused transducer as the transmitter, and a laser vibrometer as the receiver in the through transmission configuration to produce longitudinal and shear waves. This nondestructive evaluation (NDE) method was used to identify the Fusion Zone (FZ), Heat-Affected Zone (HAZ), and Base Metal (BM) regions of Grade 91 cold metal transfer (CMT) and flux core arc welds (FCAW). The ultrasonic imaging results were analyzed using beam propagation amplitudes and homogeneity, which in turn were used to relate the different microstructure regions of the FCAW and CMT welded samples. With this study, we were able to identify highly susceptible microstructures in the weld that could potentially promote creep type failures.

LAROMance Grade 91 Model Integration in NEML2

New reactor designs are targeting higher operating temperatures for increased thermal efficiency when compared to the current fleet of light water reactors. Designing structural components for these high temperature environments with reliable long-term operations requires material models that can accurately capture the deformation mechanisms active in these environments. The LAROMance surrogate material models are based on a database of mechanistic crystal plasticity simulations for high-temperature conditions. Inputs to the LAROMance models reflect the microstructural pedigree of the material, like dislocation densities and precipitate contents. Based on the evolution of these microstructural features, the LAROMance model provides the engineering scale constitutive model response. The LAROMance model was recently parameterized for Grade 91, a high temperature alloy. In the present work, the Grade 91 LAROMance model is implemented in the New Material Model Library, version 2 (NEML2). NEML2 provides a modular way to build material models from smaller blocks and was developed to vectorize the material update to efficiently run on modern computational architectures with graphics processing unit accelerators. NEML2 constitutive models can be used in simulations based on the multiphysics object-oriented simulation environment (MOOSE). This report provides details on the implementation of the Grade 91 LAROMance model in NEML2 and its verification of engineering scale finite element simulations in MOOSE.

CFD Modeling of an 81" Single Slope Barrier Wall Drainage Window for on Grade and Sag Conditions

The main goal of this study is to design a drainage window in an 81" single slope barrier wall for on-grade and sag conditions that could replace the standard ODOT I-3 barrier catch basin. The ODOT design guidelines are as follows: a) Examine configurations of the opening to the flume behind the wall under the wall section to maximize conveyance of flow to a roadside ditch section. b) Examine window lengths and configurations to maximize hydraulic efficiency on a grade up to an absolute maximum window length of 20 ft. c) Use a minimum opening height of 4 in. and consider tapering to an increased height at the outlet to the flume to reduce the potential for debris clogging beneath the barrier section. On-grade locations are analyzed for longitudinal slope up to 5% and spread up to 10 ft. Sag locations, represented by pavement at zero longitudinal slope, are analyzed for water depths up to 18 in. The roadway cross section consists of a 10-ft shoulder at a 4.0% cross slope and pavement at a 1.6% cross slope. All surfaces are represented with Manning’s n = 0.015. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used to perform the analysis. The modeling approach follows previous studies by the authors. The new design is similar to a slotted inlet: a rectangular opening cut into the bottom of a barrier (e.g., a temporary barrier or single slope barrier wall), which typically has a uniform cross section. Findings from laboratory tests of flow under Florida DOT barrier walls were used for additional validation of the modeling approach used in this study.

The 650 °C Tensile Deformation of Graded IN718-René41 Superalloy Fabricated by Laser Blown-Powder Directed Energy Deposition

The microstructure and 650 °C tensile properties of a compositionally graded IN718-René41 (718-R41) superalloy fabricated by laser blown-powder directed energy deposition (DED-LB/M) are investigated to understand structure–property relationships and baseline tensile properties. Digital Image Correlation (DIC), in situ neutron diffraction, and conventional characterization techniques are performed to study the as-built and heat-treated states. The applied heat treatment generates static recrystallization and equiaxed grains in 718-rich compositions, while R41-rich compositions remain partially or un-recrystallized possibly influenced by a higher MC carbide fraction (>0.5%). The yield strengths of the 718 and R41 sections in the heat-treated state are comparable to wrought forms but the graded compositions show weakness due to unoptimized heat treatment. Diffraction elastic constants first decrease and then increase along the 718-R41 composition gradient, while a small difference is observed between the as-built and heat-treated states and γ, γ′ phases. Overall, the compositionally graded region shows a smooth transition in the elastic properties. Grain-level load transfer from the (220) to (200) grains shows compositional dependence, and qualitatively agrees with DIC-measured macroscopic yield strength. Within the (200) grains, the γ/γ′ phases deform elastically until the γ phase yields and afterwards, the γ′ phase takes load from the γ phase.

A theoretical study of heterojunction and graded band gap type solar cells

The theory of heterojunction and graded bandgap solar cells was studied to help determine the material compositions and device dimensions needed for high efficiency solar cells. Because of the involved analysis of the fundamental equations describing solar cell operation, a general numerical device analysis program was used. A major part of the initial work was involved in modifying an existing silicon solar cell analysis program to account for the unique features of graded bandgap and heterojunction solar cells. The most successful III-V solar cells have so far been constructed in the GaAs and Gal-xAlxAs material systems; this project was concerned with such solar cells. The most efficient solar cell so far evaluated is an abrupt heterojunction cell with a pure AlAs layer at the surface with a GaAs substrate. The predicted efficiency for this cell is slightly larger than that of a graded bandgap Gal-xAlxAs solar cell.

Comparative radiation resistance calculation for graded- and constant-composition n Al/x/Ga/1-x/As-p Al/z/Ga/1-z/As solar cells

The performance and radiation resistance of a new double-graded-band-gap solar cell are theoretically determined. The performance of this device is similar to that of the single-graded-band-gap cell. The power-conversion efficiencies of both graded-band-gap structures are shown to be less sensitive to minority-carrier lifetime degradation than a similar constant-composition heteroface cell.

Application of imaging and ultrasound to the quality grading of beef

The results of a study conducted to assist the Department of Agriculture in the task of considering innovative methods for the grading of carcass beef for human consumption is presented. The processing of photographic, television and ultrasound images of the longissimus dorsi muscle at the 12/13th rib cut was undertaken. The results showed that a correlation could be developed between the quality grade of the carcass as determined by a professional grader, and the fat to area ratio of the muscle as determined by image processing techniques. In addition, the use of ultrasound shows the potential for grading of an unsliced carcass or a live animal.
