Symmetrical dynamics of peak current-mode and valley current-mode controlled switching dc-dc converters with ramp compensation

The discrete iterative map models of peak current-mode (PCM) and valley current-mode (VCM) controlled buck converters, boost converters, and buck--boost converters with ramp compensation are established and their dynamical behaviours are investigated by using the operation region, parameter space map, bifurcation diagram, and Lyapunov exponent spectrum. The research results indicate that ramp compensation extends the stable operation range of the PCM controlled switching dc--dc converter to D>0.5 and that of the VCM controlled switching dc--dc converter to D<0.5. Compared with PCM controlled switching dc--dc converters with ramp compensation, VCM controlled switching dc--dc converters with ramp compensation exhibit interesting symmetrical dynamics. Experimental results are given to verify the analysis results in this paper.

Commensurability oscillations in a quasi-two-dimensional electron gas subject to strong in-plane magnetic field

We report on a theoretical study of the commensurability oscillations in a quasi-two-dimensional electron gas modulated by a unidirectional periodic potential and subject to tilted magnetic fields with a strong in-plane component. As a result of coupling of the in-plane field component and the confining potential in the finite-width quantum well, the originally circular cyclotron orbits become anisotropic and tilted out of the sample plane. A quasi-classical approach to the theory, that relates the magneto-resistance oscillations to the guiding-center drift, is extended to this case.     

PREPRARATION OF CoPcS/TiO2/BEADS AND THEIR PHOTOCATALYTIC REACTIVITY FOR PHOTODEGRADATION OF VEGETABLE OIL FLOATING ON WATER

The paper introduces the preparation of floating TiO2/beads photocalyst attached to the hollow glass micro-beads surface by sol-gel technique using tetrabutyl titanate as material and the preparation of floating CoPcS/TiO2/beads by dip-coatig technique. The optimal factor of degradation of vegetable oil floating on water using CoPcS/TiO2/beads was studied. The result showed that the removal rate of vegetable oil floating on water can highly reach 90% at the optimal condition （acidity or neutrality, 375W medium-pressure mercury vapour lamp, illumination 2h-3h, lg CoPcS/TiO2/beads）. The photocatalytic removal efficiency causing by CoPcS/TiO2/beads was increased rapidly by adding a trace amount of H2O2.

Synthesis,characterization, and quantum chemical calculational studies on 3-<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-methylphenyl-4-amino- 1, 2, 4-triazole-5-thione

The title compound of 3-p-methylphenyl-4-amino-1, 2, 4-triazole-5-thione was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, electronic spectra, and X-ray single crystal diffraction. Quantum chemical calculations of the structure, natural bond orbital, and thermodynamic functions of the title compound were performed by using B3LYP/6-311G** and HF-6-311G** methods. Both the methods can well simulate the molecular structure. Vibrational frequencies were predicted, assigned and compared with the experimental values, and B3LYP/6-311G** method is superior to HF/6-311G** method to predict the vibrational frequencies. Electronic absorption spectra calculated by B3LYP/6-311G** method have some red shifts compared with the experimental ones and natural bond orbitals analyses indicate that the two absorption bands are mainly derived from the contribution of n → π^* and π → π^* transitions. On the basis of vibrational analyses, the thermodynamic properties of the title compound at different temperatures have been calculated, revealing the correlations between C ⁰ _p,m , S ⁰ _m , H ⁰ _m , and temperatures.     

Quantum chemical calculation studies on 4-phenyl-1-(1-phenylethylidene)thiosemicarbazide

Ab initio calculations of the structure, atomic charges, natural bond orbital and thermodynamic functions have been performed at HF/6-311G^** and B3LYP/6-311G^** levels of theory for the title compound of 4-phenyl-1-(1-phenylethylidene) thiosemicarbazide. The calculated results show that the sulfur atom and all of the nitrogen atoms have bigger negative charges and that they are the potential sites to react with the metallic ions, which make the title compound a multidentate ligand. The coordination ability of the sulfur atom and the nitrogen atom of C=N double bond increases with the increase of polarity of the solvent. Electronic absorption spectra have been calculated by time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) method. The calculation of the second-order optical nonlinearity has also been carried out with the PM3 semi-empirical method, resulting in the molecular hyperpolarisability is 5.477×10⁻³⁰ esu.     

Heat pump driven by the shot noise of a tunnel contact

We investigate a mechanism for cooling a lead based on a process that replaces hot electrons by cold ones. The central idea is that a double quantum dot with an inhomogeneous Zeeman splitting acts as energy filter for the transported electrons. The setup is such that hot electrons with spin up are removed, while cold electrons with spin down are added. The required non-equilibrium condition is provided by the capacitive coupling of one quantum dot to the shot noise of a strongly biased quantum point contact in the tunneling limit. Special attention is paid to the identification of an operating regime in which the net electrical current vanishes.     

First-principles study on the magnetism and electronic structure in 3d transition metal (X=Sc,V, Cr,Mn, Fe,Ni, Cu) doped CoO

We have studied the electronic structure and magnetism of the single transitional metal element X=Sc, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu-doped CoO systems by first-principles calculations. At X=Sc, Cr, Cu, the binding energy of the doped systems is lower than pure CoO, suggesting that these systems are energetically stable. In the Sc, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu-doped 2×2×2 CoO supercells, the total magnetic moments are 3.03, 5.64, 6.80, 7.70, 6.93, 2.30 and 1.96 μ_B, respectively. At X=Cr and Fe, the doped CoO systems are half-metallic with a high spin polarization. The large magnetic moment and high spin polarization in the Cr and Fe-doped CoO are important for the design of the spintronic devices.
