Enhancement of Overall Photovoltaic Efficiency by Changing the Position of the Attaching Group -RSO3- on the Hemicyanine Dye Molecules

A new photoresponsive D-π-A dye, mPS, has been designed and synthesized.Compared to the parent dye PS, IPCE values in the region from 400 nm to 560 nm was greatly improved upon changing the attaching group from the p- position to the o- position of the π-conjugation bridge. A solar cell based on mPS generated a remarkably high overall yield η of 5.4% under irradiation of 80.0 mW cm^-2 white light from a Xe lamp, Compared with PS, the overall yield η increased by 64%.     

Multiplexing Chaotic Signals Generated by Colpitts Oscillator and Chua Circuit Using Dual Synchronization

We demonstrate multiplexing chaotic signals generated by two totally different dynamic systems (one is a Colpitts oscillator and the other is a Chua circuit) using dual synchronization and propose a method to select the proper coupling parameters. In the response systems, the cross coupling method is used, in which the voltage difference between the sum of two master oscillators and one slave oscillator is converted to current and then feed into the other slave oscillator. The result in this letter offers a potential multiuser coherent chaotic communication scheme where different chaotic oscillators can be used in one system.     

Energy-Momentum Pseudo-Tensor of Relic Gravitational Wave of Both the Polarized States

Unlike usual celestial gravitational waves, the relic gravitational waves （RGWs） form random signals in curved spacetime background. We calculate the energy-momentum pseudo-tensor of a certain component of the RGWs propagating along arbitrary directions in Cartesian coordinates. It is found that the energy density of RGWs is positive definitely, and the momentum density components have reasonable behaviour. Such results may provide a theoretical basis for the detection of RGWs.

Detecting emboli from Doppler ultrasound signals with the wavelet packet analysis method

A Doppler ultrasound analysis method based on wavelet package transform was proposed for embolic detection. The embolic Doppler signal was firstly decomposed using the wavelet packet. Then the sensitive characteristics were calculated from each sub-band signal and used in the emboli classification. This method was applied to analyze 300 cases simulated and 163 cases clinical Doppler signals. The minimum error ratio of embolic detection using this method was 13 percents lower than that using the traditional spectrogram analysis method.It was shown that this method overcame the limit between the time and frequency resolution in the short time Fourier transform, improved the accuracy of embolic detection greatly and extracted more reliable parameters for the clinical diagnosis.     

Momentum Transfer Dependence of Two Types of the Broad Enhancement Phenomena： CO Spectra in the Valence Energy Region

Partial generalized oscillator strength densities of CO molecules related to the excitation of a 5σ or 1π electron are calculated by using multi-scattering self-consistent-field methods.Momentum transfer dependence of two types of the broad enhancement phenomena above the threshold with one-electron character,i.e. shape resonance and non-resonance enhancement,is studied.Our calculations show that the energy position of a non-resonance enhancement is related to the momentum transfer K.Therefore,electron impact based experiments can be used to identify the two types of the broad enhancement phenomena.     

An approach to the detection of underwater remote target

An approach to the detection of underwater remote target by estimating its backscattering coefficient is presented. The key to this approach is that the echo signal is represented in state-variable model and the back-scattering coefficients of target are contained in dynamic noise of this model, thus underwater target can be detected by estimating this dynamic noise, i.e., deconvolving this model. When all noise statistics are a priori known, an optimum deconvolution algorithm based on the optimum state filter is derived, or else, an adaptive deconvolution algorithm based on the adaptive state filter of alternatively estimating the vector state and the noise statistics is developed. In the final simulation test, an echo signal with SNR equal to -6.1 dB is proceeded using the aforementioned two deconvolution algorithms, respectively, and the results demonstrate good performance of the approach.     

Design and Fabrication of 1.06 μm Resonant-Cavity Enhanced Reflective Modulator with GaInAs/GaAs Quantum Wells

A resonant-cavity enhanced reflective optical modulator is designed and fabricated, with three groups of three highly strained InGaAs/GaAs quantum wells in the cavity, for low voltage and high contrast ratio operation. The quantum wells are positioned in antinodes of the optical standing wave. The modulator is grown in a single growth step in an molecular beam epitaxy system, using GaAs/AlAs distributed Bragg reflectors as both the top and bottom mirrors. Results show that the reflection device has a modulation extinction of 3 dB at -4.5 V bias.
