Artificial Graphite

Measurements have been made of the changes in the electrical resistance of an artificial graphite which are induced by neutron irradiation and subsequent annealing. The resistivity increases with irradiation; the increase in resistance is partially removed by annealing at 128 °C. These changes have been interpreted using Wallace's theory of the electron structure of graphite. The number of atoms displaced by the irradiation has been calculated using the method of Seitz, and is shown to be consistent with the experimental results.

The objective of this work is the enhancement of metal-to-metal bonding to provide high thermal conductivity together with electrical insulation, to be used as heat sinks at room and cryogenic temperatures. High thermal conductive metal (copper) and epoxy resin (Stycast 2850FT) were used in this study, with the latter also providing the required electrical insulation. The copper surface was irradiated with laser to induce micro- and nano-patterned structures that result in an improvement of the adhesion between the epoxy and the copper. Thus, copper-to-copper bonding strength was characterized by means of mechanical tensile shear tests. The effect of the laser processing on the thermal conductivity properties of the Cu/epoxy/Cu joint at different temperatures, from 10 to 300 K, is also reported. Using adequate laser parameters, it is possible to obtain high bonding strength values limited by cohesive epoxy fracture, together with good thermal conductivity at ambient and cryogenic temperatures.

Thermal Conductivities

The thermoelectric properties of Nb-doped Zn4Sb3 compounds, (Zn1–xNbx)4Sb3 (x = 0, 0.005, and 0.01), were investigated at temperatures ranging from 300 to 685 K. The results showed that by substituting Zn with Nb, the thermal conductivities of all the Nb-doped compounds were lower than that of the pristine β-Zn4Sb3. Among the compounds studied, the lightly substituted (Zn0.995Nb0.005)4Sb3 compound exhibited the best thermoelectric performance due to the improvement in both its electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity. Its figure of merit, ZT, was greater than the undoped Zn4Sb3 compound for the temperature range investigated. In particular, the ZT of (Zn0.995Nb0.005)4Sb3 reached a value of 1.1 at 680 K, which was 69% greater than that of the undoped Zn4Sb3 obtained in this study.

High Seebeck Coefficient

ABSTRACTWe report transport properties of polycrystalline TMGa3(TM = Fe and Ru) compounds in the temperature range 313K<T<973K. These compounds exhibit semiconductorlike behavior with relatively high Seebeck coefficient, electrical resistivity, and Hall carrier concentrations at room temperature in the range of 1017- 1018cm−3. Seebeck coefficient measurements reveal that FeGa3isn-type material, while the Seebeck coefficient of RuGa3changes signs rapidly from large positive values to large negative values around 450K. The thermal conductivity of these compounds is estimated to be 3.5Wm−1K−1at room temperature and decreased to 2.5Wm−1K−1for FeGa3and 2.0Wm−1K−1for RuGa3at high temperature. The resulting thermoelectric figure of merit,ZT, at 945K for RuGa3reaches 0.18.

Jeans Criterion

The problem of radiative instability of homogeneous rotating partially ionized plasma incorporating viscosity, porosity, and electron inertia in the presence of a magnetic field is investigated. A general dispersion relation is obtained using normal mode analysis with the help of relevant linearized perturbation equations of the problem. The modified Jeans criterion of instability is obtained. The conditions of Jeans instabilities are discussed in the different cases of interest. It is found that the simultaneous effect of viscosity, rotation, finite conductivity, and porosity of the medium does not essentially change the Jeans criterion of instability. It is also found that the presence of arbitrary radiative heat-loss function and thermal conductivity modified the conditions of Jeans instability for longitudinal propagation. It is found that, for longitudinal propagation, the conditions of radiative instability are independent of magnetic field, viscosity, rotation, finite electrical resistivity, and electron inertia, but for the transverse mode of propagation it depends upon finite electrical resistivity and strength of magnetic field and is independent of viscosity, electron inertia, and rotation. From the curves we find that viscosity has a stabilizing effect on the growth rate of instability but the thermal conductivity and density-dependent heat-loss function has a destabilizing effect on the instability growth rate.
