AMPS - On Mercury Vapor lamps and their effect on the smart-grid plc channel
2015 IEEE International Workshop on Applied Measurements for Power Systems (AMPS), 2015Co-Authors: A. Emleh, A.s. De Beer, H.c. Ferreira, A.j. Han VinckAbstract:The Mercury Vapor lamp is the oldest high intensity discharge technology lamp that uses an electric arc, and comes in different shapes and designs. It creates a very bright light by using an arc through Vaporized Mercury in a high pressure tube. This lamp can cause unwanted interference to the smart-grid network or power line communications channel when connected to the channel’s wiring system. In this paper we investigate the negative effects that the Mercury Vapor lamps with electric ballast have on the smart-grid PLC channel. This can have a strong and negative effect when using the smart-grid PLC network to control the automatic switching of lamps in public places. The narrowband and broadband channels are investigated where the interference level from Mercury Vapor lamps is significantly below the allowed maximum PLC signal levels on the band: (3 kHz – 150 kHz), and competes with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) levels on the 150 kHz – 30 MHz band. The Mercury Vapor lamp uses an electric ballast to connect to the powerline system. This connection is explained in detail.

Mercury Vapor detection with a self sensing resonating piezoelectric cantilever
Review of Scientific Instruments, 2003Co-Authors: B Rogers, Thomas Thundat, L Manning, M Jones, Todd Sulchek, Kevin Murray, B Beneschott, J D Adams, Zhiyu Hu, H CavazosAbstract:A microcantilever with an integrated piezoelectric film is demonstrated as a Mercury Vapor detector. The cantilever is self-sensing and self-actuating, and therefore does not need alignment of an external, optical detection system. This gives the new sensor system an advantage in array applications. Mercury Vapor, when adsorbed onto gold on the cantilever, causes the stiffness, and therefore the natural frequency, of the cantilever to increase as a result of Mercury gold amalgamation. This shift is detected using the piezoelectric portion of the cantilever in conjunction with a bridge circuit and amplifier. A Mercury concentration of 93 ppb in nitrogen is detected.

detection of Mercury Vapor using resonating microcantilevers
Applied Physics Letters, 1995Co-Authors: Thomas Thundat, Eric A Wachter, S L Sharp, R J WarmackAbstract:Oscillating silicon nitride microcantilevers coated with a thin gold film have been used to detect Mercury Vapor in air. Cantilever resonance frequency changes due to surface mass loading as a result of adsorption of Mercury Vapor. Furthermore, cantilever bending is also altered due to changes in surface stress induced by Mercury adsorption on the gold overlayer. Both of these phenomena can be used to quantitatively detect adsorbed Vapors with picogram mass resolution.
