Fabrication of niobium nitride (NbN) superconducting nanowires based on focused ion beam (FIB) milling and electron beam lithography (EBL) is presented. The NbN films were deposited using reactive magnetron sputtering. Argon-to-nitrogen ratio turned out to be a crucial factor in synthesizing high quality superconducting NbN. Critical temperatures (Tc) of around 15.5 K were measured for films with a thickness of around 10 nm. Zero-field-cooled magnetization was measured to optimize the superconducting properties of ultra thin NbN films. The transport behaviour was studied using conventional resistance vs temperature and current-voltage characteristics down to 2 K. Effect of gallium contamination on superconducting properties has been discussed. Whereas the various processing steps of standard EBL route do not have any significant impact on the superconducting transition temperature as well as on the transition width of nanowires, there is significant degradation of superconducting properties of nanowires prepared using FIB. This has been attributed to gallium ion implantation across the superconducting channel. Although the effect of gallium implantation may have technological limitations in designing fascinating single photon detector architectures, it provides some interesting low-dimensional superconducting properties.Keywords

Applications of high-spatial resolution imaging spectrometer data acquired from the Airborne Visible/ Infrared Imaging Spectrometer-Next Generation (AVIRIS-NG) under India campaign 2015–16, require a thorough compensation for atmospheric absorption and scattering. The data-processing algorithms used for retrieving critically important atmospheric parameters, namely ‘water vapour and aerosol optical depth (AOD)’ over land and water surfaces are presented. Over land surfaces, the dark dense vegetation method and radiative transfer modelling are used for deriving spectral AOD for boxes of 20 × 20 pixels. For AOD retrieval over water surfaces, dark-target approximation is used with near-infrared and shortwave infrared measurements. Estimation of precipitable water vapour is carried out using short-wave hyperspectral measurements for each pixel. A differential absorption technique (continuum interpolated band ratio) has been used for this purpose. The retrieved AOD and water vapour values were compared with in situ sun-photometer and radiosonde data respectively, indicating good matches. Further, these parameters were used to derive ‘atmospherically corrected surface reflectance and remote sensing reflectance’, for land and water surface respectively, assuming horizontal surfaces having Lambertian reflectance.Keywords

Coloured dissolved and detrital matter (CDM) forms a significant fraction of the total dissolved organic matter (DOM) in water bodies. It absorbs light strongly in the ultraviolet and blue domains of the electromagnetic spectrum. The present study maps CDM absorption of the entire Chilika lagoon, Odisha, India (an optically complex water body) using hyperspectral data of AVIRIS-NG. This study takes advantage of hyperspectral data which use SWIR bands for the estimation of remote sensing reflectance in highly turbid waters of Chilika lagoon (northern sector, which otherwise is masked using standard atmospheric correction schemes). During 24–27 December 2015, we have collected in situ bio-optical data over waters of Chilika lagoon, for studying the distribution of CDM. AVIRIS-NG data have also been acquired synchronous to in situ measurements over the study area. CDM absorption coefficient is retrieved using quasi analytical algorithm and the distribution of CDM is discussed in detail in three different sectors of Chilika lagoon (southern, central, northern) and at the outer channel. The variability of CDM absorption at 412 nm shows that in the north sector of Chilika lagoon, CDM absorption is quite high compared to other sectors (5.5 m–1 with a standard deviation of 0.06 m–1). In the southern sector and at the outer channel it is 1.8 m–1 with a standard deviation of 0.02 m–1 and in the central sector it is 3.76 m–1 with a standard deviation of 0.22 m–1. High CDM in the northern sector is attributed to the inflow of terrestrial organic matter. The advantage of hyperspectral data is that it gives CDM absorption contiguous in the range of 375–425 nm, where the absorption by CDM is strong and away from chlorophyll-a absorption.Keywords

At the national power grid in India, stability is one of the most important factors due to disturbances caused by distributed load and time-variant sources. Presently, for monitoring the transmission efficiency and performance of power grids, phasor measurement units (PMUs) are being installed at various locations in the country. Time synchronization, using Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), makes PMU an important and reliable data acquisition equipment across the grids. To ensure reliability and accuracy of the acquired data, PMUs must be calibrated. However, recent development of automated PMU calibrator system by NIST and M/s Fluke, USA has revolutionized the calibration process by enhancing the accuracy and consistency of PMU measurements. The CSIR-NPL PMU system is fully operational to calibrate PMUs according to the IEEE synchrophasor standards. The time consumed to perform the PMU calibration is comparatively much less than the conventional method. A traceable PMU calibrator system has great potential in calibrating PMUs used to monitor, control and protect the power grid.Keywords
