Diffusion Model of a Non-Integer Order PIγ Controller with TCP/UDP Streams

In this article, a way to employ the diffusion approximation to model interplay between TCP and UDP flows is presented. In order to control traffic congestion, an environment of IP routers applying AQM (Active Queue Management) algorithms has been introduced. Furthermore, the impact of the fractional controller PIγ and its parameters on the transport protocols is investigated. The controller has been elaborated in accordance with the control theory. The TCP and UDP flows are transmitted simultaneously and are mutually independent. Only the TCP is controlled by the AQM algorithm. Our diffusion model allows a single TCP or UDP flow to start or end at any time, which distinguishes it from those previously described in the literature.     

Sc、Ce掺杂CrSi2的电子结构与光学性质的第一性原理

采用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理赝势平面波方法对Sc、Ce单掺和共掺后CrSi₂的几何结构、电子结构、复介电函数、吸收系数和光电导率进行了计算。结果表明:Sc、Ce掺杂CrSi₂的晶格常数增大,带隙变小。本征CrSi₂的带隙为0.386 eV,Sc、Ce单掺及共掺CrSi₂的禁带宽度分别减小至0.245 eV、0.232 eV、0.198 eV,费米能级均向低能区移动进入价带。由于Sc的3d态电子和Ce的4f态电子的影响,Sc、Ce掺杂的CrSi₂在导带下方出现了杂质能级。掺杂后的CrSi₂介电函数虚部第一介电峰峰值增加且向低能方向移动,说明Sc、Ce掺杂使得CrSi₂在低能区的光跃迁强度增强,Sc-Ce共掺时更明显。Sc、Ce掺杂的CrSi₂吸收边在低能方向发生红移,在能量大于21.6 eV特别是在位于31.3 eV的较高能量附近,本征CrSi₂几乎不吸收光子,Sc单掺和Sc-Ce共掺CrSi₂吸收光子的能力有所增强,并在E=31.3 eV附近形成了第二吸收峰。说明掺杂Sc、Ce改善了CrSi₂对红外和较高能区光子的吸收。在小于3.91 eV的低能区掺杂后的CrSi₂光电导率增加。在20.01 eV<E<34.21 eV时,本征CrSi₂光电导率为零,但Sc、Ce掺杂后的体系不为零,掺杂拓宽了CrSi₂的光响应范围。研究结果为CrSi₂基光电器件的应用与设计提供了理论依据。     

Negative thermal expansion in NbF_3 and NbOF_2:A comparative theoretical study

Thermal expansion control is always an obstructive factor and challenging in high precision engineering field. Here,the negative thermal expansion of Nb F_3 and Nb OF_2 was predicted by first-principles calculation with density functional theory and the quasi-harmonic approximation(QHA). We studied the total charge density, thermal vibration, and lattice dynamic to investigate the thermal expansion mechanism. We found that the presence of O induced the relatively strong covalent bond in Nb OF_2, thus weakening the transverse vibration of F and O in Nb OF_2, compared with the case of Nb F_3.In this study, we proposed a way to tailor negative thermal expansion of metal fluorides by introducing the oxygen atoms.The present work not only predicts two NTE compounds, but also provides an insight on thermal expansion control by designing chemical bond type.     

On the Relative Twist Formula of l-adic Sheaves

We propose a conjecture on the relative twist formula of l-adic sheaves, which can be viewed as a generalization of Kato—Saito's conjecture. We verify this conjecture under some transversal assumptions. We also define a relative cohomological characteristic class and prove that its formation is compatible with proper push-forward. A conjectural relation is also given between the relative twist formula and the relative cohomological characteristic class.

Interaction induced non-reciprocal three-level quantum transport

Besides its fundamental importance, non-reciprocity has also found many potential applications in quantum technology. Recently, many quantum systems have been proposed to realize non-reciprocity, but stable non-reciprocal process is still experimentally difficult in general, due to the needed cyclical interactions in artificial systems or operational difficulties in solid state materials. Here, we propose a new kind of interaction induced non-reciprocal operation, based on the conventional stimulated-Raman-adiabatic-passage(STIRAP) setup, which removes the experimental difficulty of requiring cyclical interaction, and thus it is directly implementable in various quantum systems. Furthermore, we also illustrate our proposal on a chain of three coupled superconducting transmons, which can lead to a non-reciprocal circulator with high fidelity without a ring coupling configuration as in the previous schemes or implementations. Therefore, our protocol provides a promising way to explore fundamental non-reciprocal quantum physics as well as realize non-reciprocal quantum device.     

气相输运沉积制备c轴择优取向的碘化铋薄膜

铋基卤化物材料因其无毒和优良的光电性能而显示出巨大的应用潜力。BiI₃作为一种层状重金属半导体,已被用于X射线检测、γ射线检测和压力传感器等领域,最近其作为一种薄膜太阳能电池吸收材料备受关注。本文采用简单的气相输运沉积(VTD)法,以BiI₃晶体粉末作为蒸发源,在玻璃基底上得到高质量c轴择优取向的BiI₃薄膜。并通过研究蒸发源温度和沉积距离对薄膜物相和形貌的影响,分析了BiI₃薄膜择优生长的机理。结果表明VTD法制备的BiI₃薄膜属于三斜晶系,其光学带隙为~1.8 eV。沉积温度对薄膜的择优取向有较大影响,在沉积温度低于270 ℃时,沉积的薄膜具有沿c轴择优取向生长的特点,超过此温度,c轴择优取向生长消失。在衬底温度为250 ℃、沉积距离为15 cm时制备的薄膜结晶性能最好,晶体形貌为片状八面体。
