- Thermopile infrared detector is a kind of detector device mainly composed of thermocouple as the basic unit. Because of its simple principle, no need of cooling equipment, and other advantages, it has been widely used in various fields of production and life. However, the absorption rates of the materials in conventional thermopile devices are poor, and the majority of them are incompatible with microfabrication methods. In this work, a metal thermopile infrared detector with vertical graphene (VG) is designed and fabricated. The VG is grown via plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition, and retained at the device’s thermal ends to provide the thermopile IR detector’s wideband and high response characteristics. The detector achieves a room temperature responsivity reaching a value as high as 1.53 V/W at 792 nm, which can increase the response results about 28 times and reduce the response time to 0.8 ms compared with the thermopile detector without VG. After systematically measuring the response results, it is finally found that there are three main mechanisms responsible for the response on the composite device. The first one is the response generated by the metal thermopile itself alone. The second one is the response increased eventually by the contribution of VG covered at the metal thermal junction that expands the temperature difference. The last one is the response generated by the temperature gradient existing inside the VG on the surface of the device after the absorption of heat. The portion of each partial response mechanism in the total response is also analyzed, providing a new reference direction for analyzing the response generation mechanism of thermopile detectors with other absorbing materials. The process is compatible with the microfabrication, while the device performance is enhanced and suitable for mass production. Furthermore, by utilizing the surface plasmon resonance to combine VG with metal nanoparticles, the material’ s light absorption is found to be enhanced significantly under the same conditions, and the resulting thermal voltage can be increased to 6 times. The results indicate that VG promises to possess practical applications, in many fields such as photoelectric sensing and power production devices. This technology provides a new method to manufacture high-performance thermopile infrared detectors and other sensor devices.

- The mooring load calculation module of the fully coupled dynamic simulation software FAST was recompiled, and the transient response of a tension-leg-platform floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) named WindStar TLP system under tendon failure was numerically simulated using a time domain method, in terms of the coupled system of wind turbine, tension-leg-type support platform and tendons. The transient response of the key parameters, i.e., platform motions, nacelle accelerations and tensions in the remaining tendons under different wave directions in 50-year extreme condition were investigated. Results show that the transient response of platform motions, nacelle accelerations and tendon tensions under tendon failure are significant. The transient response of FOWT with the broken tendon in back waves is greater than that with the broken tendon in head waves. And when the broken tendon in back waves is aligned with the wave, the transient response of FOWT is the maximum. The safety factor for tendon system under tendon failure in 50-year extreme condition meets the requirements of specification constituted by American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), which verifies the survivability of this tension-leg-type FOWT.
