使用改进的形状优化方法设计高均匀度的超导MRI磁体

针对设计带铁磁的超导磁共振成像磁体,提出了一种确定类的优化算法来优化极靴的形状以达到匀场的目的。这种方法集合了灵敏度分析、形状优化的理论和有限元方法计算非线性铁磁材料极靴的配置,来改善两个极靴之间大体积成像区的磁场均匀度。需要指出的是,本优化方法不受极靴初始形状的限制,均可以快速收敛。我们通过一个紧凑型的1.2T双平面磁共振磁体,展示了这种方法。     

用光电离技术探测钐原子的奇宇称束缚激发态的光谱

采用光电离探测方法,对钐原子奇宇称束缚激发态进行了系统研究.通过设计三条不同的激发路径, 采用共振激发方式,先将钐原子分三步从基态激发到不同的束缚激发态,然后采用光电离手段对其进行探测. 通过对第三步激发光的波长进行大范围的扫描,在同一能域内获得了三组不同的光谱. 通过比对三条路径所得到的三组光谱,不仅精确确定了大量奇宇称束缚激发态的能级位置, 而且还获得了相应跃迁的相对强度的信息.最后,通过运用三条不同的激发路径的选择定则, 还确定了上述能级的总角动量. 关键词： 钐原子 束缚激发态 奇宇称 光电离探测

第一性原理计算研究立方氮化硼空位的电学和光学特性

对立方氮化硼的空位进行了基于密度泛函理论框架下的第一性原理平面波超软赝势方法的研究. 通过对总能量、能带结构、态密度及电子密度分布图的分析发现, B空位相比起N空位更加稳定. 并且空位仅影响最近邻原子的电子分布, 空位浓度的增加使禁带宽度逐渐变窄. 从复介电函数和光学吸收谱分析中发现, 随着空位浓度的增加, 立方氮化硼在深紫外区的吸收逐渐减弱. 并且B空位还导致在可见光区域出现明显的吸收带. 关键词： 立方氮化硼 空位 第一性原理 电光学特性

乙醇在TiO2(110)表面光催化解离的动力学和超快电子动态学 (cited: 2)

采用实时双光子光电子能谱和时间分辨双光子光电子能谱技术分别研究了乙醇在该表面光催化解离的动力学和超快电子动态学过程. 通过测量与乙醇光催化解离相关的电子激发态随时间的演化,发现这个反应满足分型动力学. 乙醇在还原性TiO₂(110)上的光催化解离比在氧化性表面快,这归结于缺陷的存在降低了反应能垒. 这样一个反应的加速过程很可能是与缺陷电子相关的. 通过干涉双脉冲相关的测量,得到了乙醇-TiO₂界面电子激发态的超快动态学. 与甲醇的情况类似,这个电子激发态的寿命为24 fs. 激发态的出现为TiO₂和它周围环境的电子转移提供了一个通道.     

Quantum anomalous Hall effect and related topological electronic states

Over a long period of exploration, the successful observation of quantized version of anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in thin film of magnetically doped topological insulator (TI) completed a quantum Hall trio—quantum Hall effect (QHE), quantum spin Hall effect (QSHE), and quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE). On the theoretical front, it was understood that the intrinsic AHE is related to Berry curvature and U(1) gauge field in momentum space. This understanding established connection between the QAHE and the topological properties of electronic structures characterized by the Chern number. With the time-reversal symmetry (TRS) broken by magnetization, a QAHE system carries dissipationless charge current at edges, similar to the QHE where an external magnetic field is necessary. The QAHE and corresponding Chern insulators are also closely related to other topological electronic states, such as TIs and topological semimetals, which have been extensively studied recently and have been known to exist in various compounds. First-principles electronic structure calculations play important roles not only for the understanding of fundamental physics in this field, but also towards the prediction and realization of realistic compounds. In this article, a theoretical review on the Berry phase mechanism and related topological electronic states in terms of various topological invariants will be given with focus on the QAHE and Chern insulators. We will introduce the Wilson loop method and the band inversion mechanism for the selection and design of topological materials, and discuss the predictive power of first-principles calculations. Finally, remaining issues, challenges and possible applications for future investigations in the field will be addressed.     

Simulation of pedestrian counter flow through bottlenecks by using an agent-based model

Considerable research has been conducted on the topic of unidirectional evacuations from exits. However, few studies aim at simulating counter flow through a bottleneck with complex conflict. This paper proposes an agent-based model to investigate bidirectional flow evacuation. Pedestrian speed is determined by the speed of the leading agent and the surrounding agents. The moving direction of pedestrian originates from four forces, namely, gradient force, repulsive force, resistance force, and random force. These four forces dominate the main stream of the pedestrian moving trajectory, the interaction between pedestrians and their local environment, the resistance or disinclination to movement, and the random variations and chaotic nature of pedestrian dynamics. The novelty of this research is in the agent-based model that combines the agent and forces while providing insights for the simulation of the pedestrian dynamic on the cognitive level. The experiment results show that the behavior that arises from this model is consistent with the observations from Guangzhou Metro and that this model could help capture the essence of pedestrian behavior near egresses.     

稳恒磁场对Fe-Fe50 wt.%Si扩散偶中间相生长的影响

本文考察了Fe-Fe50 wt.%Si扩散偶在1200℃ 无磁场以及稳恒磁场下扩散层生长规律. 利用真空浇注强制冷却技术制备Fe-Fe50 wt.%Si扩散偶, 将制备的扩散偶进行1200℃不同磁感应强度下的热处理. 对获得热处理后试样进行SEM与EDS线扫描分析, 结果表明, 无论无磁场还是稳恒磁场下Fe-Fe50 wt.%Si扩散偶均生成两个扩散层, 即FeSi相层和Fe-Si固溶体层, 并且发现0.8 T下的两个扩散层宽度均小于0 T磁场下试样. 按照抛物线规律, 计算了扩散偶中间扩散层的互扩散系数, 发现0.8 T磁场下FeSi相层和Fe-Si固溶体层的互扩散系数较无磁场下 分别降低了26.7%与34.1%. 通过对磁吉布斯自由能的计算, 发现0.8 T磁场对扩散激活能Q的影响不足以影响扩散过程. 但扩散过程中原子振动频率ν会受到磁场的影响, 进而影响扩散常数D₀, 磁场对原子振动频率的影响可以用拉莫尔旋进理论进行解释. 关键词： Fe-Fe50wt.%Si扩散偶 稳恒磁场 FeSi相 Fe-Si固溶体     

Photocatalytic degradation efficacy of Bi4Ti3O12 micro-scale platelets over methylene blue under visible light

〈001〉 textured Bi₄Ti₃O₁₂ platelets with micro scale size were synthesized by a facile molten salt method. The photocatalytic activities of the as-prepared samples were measured with the photodegradation of methylene blue at room temperature under visible light irradiation. The Bi₄Ti₃O₁₂ with the aspect ratio of 35 exhibited good absorption in the visible light region and the photodegradation against methylene blue was higher than that of anatase TiO₂ reference, showing that the high degree of preferred {001} facets on the plate surface benefits the electronic transmission. In addition, the layer-pervoskite structure facilitates the mobility of the photogenerated carriers and hampers their recombination. The above results indicated that the large specific surface area of the as-prepared samples could attribute to the presence of a number of oxygen vacancies and then lead to the good photo-electric property. This work proposed an alternative way to tailor the structure of micro-sized platelets to get excellent properties comparable to the nano materials.
