Short note on the excitonic Mott phase

An exciton gas on a lattice is analysed in terms of a convergent hopping expansion. For a given chemical potential, our calculation provides a sufficient condition for the hopping rate to obtain an exponential decay of the exciton correlation function. This result indicates the existence of a Mott phase in which strong fluctuations destroy the long range correlations in the exciton gas at any temperature, either by thermal or by quantum fluctuations.     

考虑属性关联的C-TODIM决策方法

针对属性具有关联性的多属性决策问题,考虑到决策者具有参照依赖和损失规避行为,提出一种新的C-TODIM决策方法。依据经典TODIM决策方法,考虑决策者的参照依赖行为,计算每个方案相对于其它各个方案关于各属性的收益或损失值;再考虑到决策者的损失规避行为,集成属性关联情形下方案关于所有属性的收益或损失值,得到每个方案相对于其它各个方案的个体感知优势度;在此基础上,计算每个方案的总体感知优势度,并依据总体感知优势度的大小对方案进行排序。最后通过一个风险投资的算例验证该方法的可行性和有效性。     

Crystal electric field excitations in ferromagnetic CeTX compounds

A ferromagnetic ground state was identified for the compounds CeCuGe (T_C=10 K), CeCuSi (T_C=15 K) [F. Yang, et al., J. Appl. Phys. 69 (1991) 4705] and CeAuGe (T_C=10 K) [R. Pottgen, J. Magn. Magn. Mater. 152 (1996) 196]. The observed saturation magnetic moment values at low temperatures for all three compounds are considerably less than the theoretically expected value g_JJ=2.14μ_B for the free Ce³⁺ ion involving the entire six-fold J=5/2 multiplet, and thus provide a first indication of partial lifting of the f-electron level degeneracy in these compounds. Specific heat data yield crystal electric field (CEF) excitation energies (Δ_Sch) equivalent to 140 K for CeCuGe, 110 K for CeCuSi and 280 K for CeAuGe. To confirm the presence of CEF excitations directly, we have carried out inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements on all three compounds, using the HET spectrometer at ISIS Facility. Here, we present a detailed analysis of the INS spectra of CeCuSi on the basis of a CEF model and the detailed analysis of the INS of the other two compounds will be reported elsewhere.

银薄膜对光学基底表面粗糙度及光散射的影响

为了研究金属银薄膜与光学基底表面粗糙度和光散射的关系,提出了通过对光学薄膜矢量散射公式积分来获得界面粗糙度完全相关模型和完全非相关模型下其表面的总反射散射的方法.理论计算了光学基底上两种模型在不同厚度银膜下的总反射散射和双向反射分布函数.结果表明,当沉积在光学基底上的银薄膜的厚度大于80 nm后,两种模型下计算的银薄膜的表面总反射散射都等于基底的总积分散射,银薄膜能较好地复现出基底的粗糙度轮廓.实验研究表明为了复现基底的粗糙度,银薄膜的最佳厚度应在80~160 nm之间.     

Asymptotic properties of local polynomial regression with missing data and correlated errors

The main objective of this work is the nonparametric estimation of the regression function with correlated errors when observations are missing in the response variable. Two nonparametric estimators of the regression function are proposed. The asymptotic properties of these estimators are studied; expresions for the bias and the variance are obtained and the joint asymptotic normality is established. A simulation study is also included.     

分布式光纤中的稳健时间延迟估计方法

在分布式光纤传感系统定位中,传统时延估计算法常由于噪声相关性较强而失效。采用一种削弱相关噪声的改进型广义相关法,并针对系统特点,为进一步改善分布式光纤传感定位的准确度与稳定度,提出了一种先对数据按事件信号进行分帧,再采用卡尔曼滤波器对分帧时延估计结果进行跟踪的时延估计方案。系统仿真实验与实际数据测试结果均表明:提出的时延估计方案能够有效抑制强相关性的噪声,提高时延估计的准确度与稳定度。经大量现场测试,本文的方案能够有效地将时延估计误差稳定地控制在0.2个采样间隔以内,能够满足系统实际定位精度要求。     

Dynamics of One‐Dimensional Electrons With Broken Spin–Charge Separation

Spin–charge separation is known to be broken in many physically interesting one‐dimensional (1D) and quasi‐1D systems with spin–orbit interaction because of which spin and charge degrees of freedom are mixed in collective excitations. Mixed spin–charge modes carry an electric charge and therefore can be investigated by electrical means. We explore this possibility by studying the dynamic conductance of a 1D electron system with image‐potential‐induced spin–orbit interaction. The real part of the admittance reveals an oscillatory behavior versus frequency that reflects the collective excitation resonances for both modes at their respective transit frequencies. By analyzing the frequency dependence of the conductance the mode velocities can be found and their spin–charge structure can be determined quantitatively.     

Electronic structure and magnetic properties of rare-earth perovskite gallates from first principles

The density functional calculation is performed for centrosymmetric(La–Pm) GaO_3 rare earth gallates, using a full potential linear augmented plane wave method with the LSDA and LSDA+U exchange correlation to treat highly correlated electrons due to the very localized 4f orbitals of rare earth elements, and explore the influence of U = 0.478 Ry on the magnetic phase stability and the densities of states. LSDA+U calculation shows that the ferromagnetic(FM) state of RGaO_3 is energetically more favorable than the anti-ferromagnetic(AFM) one, except for LaGaO_3 where the NM state is the lowest in energy. The energy band gaps of RGaO_3 are found to be in the range of 3.8–4.0 eV, indicating the semiconductor character with a large gap.
