Charge distribution in homonuclear bonds: A semiempirical modeling

Atoms characterized by nonequivalent electronegativities form chemical bonds by exchanging electrical charge. The fraction of charge exchanged is dictated by the electronegativity differences among the system atoms. In the electronegativity equalization method, the charge distribution is estimated by forcing the system to relax to a common chemical potential, which corresponds to its configuration of energy minimum. By definition, this method cannot be applied to homonuclear bonds. A model is proposed to estimate the charge shared in molecular orbitals of homonuclear molecules. The model expands upon the electronegativity equalization method by adding formalism to describe the spin coupling characteristic of homonuclear bonds. Results are in excellent agreement with other quantum mechanical estimations of the charge distributions. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Feed-forward control of SOA gain for power equalization in optical burst switching networks

We evaluate the performance of a novel technique to equalize power variation between optical bursts using feed-forward control of semiconductor optical amplifier gain. The technique enables large dynamic range power equalization of incoming optical bursts with up to 10 dB power difference. Moreover, the technique can remove SOA-induced waveform distortion. We achieve more than 4 dB sensitivity improvement with equalized burst power.

Perceptual contrast enhancement with dynamic range adjustment

Recent years, although great efforts have been made to improve its performance, few Histogram equalization (HE) methods take human visual perception (HVP) into account explicitly. The human visual system (HVS) is more sensitive to edges than brightness. This paper proposes to take use of this nature intuitively and develops a perceptual contrast enhancement approach with dynamic range adjustment through histogram modification. The use of perceptual contrast connects the image enhancement problem with the HVS. To pre-condition the input image before the HE procedure is implemented, a perceptual contrast map (PCM) is constructed based on the modified Difference of Gaussian (DOG) algorithm. As a result, the contrast of the image is sharpened and high frequency noise is suppressed. A modified Clipped Histogram Equalization (CHE) is also developed which improves visual quality by automatically detecting the dynamic range of the image with improved perceptual contrast. Experimental results show that the new HE algorithm outperforms several state-of-the-art algorithms in improving perceptual contrast and enhancing details. In addition, the new algorithm is simple to implement, making it suitable for real-time applications.     

A New Relation Connecting Vibrationai Constant and Electronegativity in the Case of Diatomic Molecules

The electronegativity was defined by Pauling¹ as a measure of the power of an atom in the molecule to attract electrons to itself. This concept of electronegativity has undergone radical changes. Recent calculations of electronegativity show^2,3 that it is a complex quantity including an important atomic term depending on the charge and hybridization of the atom, and a molecular term depending on the length and the nature of the bonds in the molecule. In a molecular group of the type A-B, B is a halogen atom, say chlorine and A stands for different atoms of a subgroup of the periodic table. Since the nature of the bonds in the molecule AB and the electronegativity of halogen atom, B, is constant for a molecular group, the electronegativity, X, of atom A may be related to the dissociation energy and bond length which in its turn is related to the vibrational constant,ω_e, and the reduced mass, μ, of the molecule AB.
