Optical fiber acoustic sensing multiplexing system based on TDM/SFDM

We propose a system of time-division multiplexing(TDM) and spatial frequency-division multiplexing(SFDM). Extrinsic Fabry–Perot interferometric sensors are applied to detect weak acoustic signals. The broadband source is employed, the light from it is modulated by a pulse signal sequence and is efficiently amplified by semiconductor optical amplifiers. Experimental results show that the equivalent noise pressure spectrum level is-97.2 d B re 1 rad/√Hz below 1250 Hz, and the cross talk between two sensors in one TDM channel is-32.7 d B with a cavity length difference of 60 μm. The number of sensors in this multiplexing system can theoretically reach 160.     

氢原子的固有电偶极矩

用经典力学和双波量子力学计算了氢原子的固有电偶极矩。双波量子理论算得的结果在经典极限下与经典力学的结果一致。普通量子力学对氢原子Stark效应中表现出来的电偶极矩难以做出很好的解释，因为一个波函数描述的是系综而不是单个粒子。经典力学和双波量子力学可描述单个粒子的行为，对永久电偶极矩的计算和解释显得自然而合理。     

Transition metal coordination polymers with polycarboxylic acid as bridging ligands: Synthesis and structure characterization of [Fe(μ4-bta)0.5(phen)(OH)]<Subscript>n</Subscript>

A new 2D (two-dimensional) coordination polymer, [Fe(μ4-bta)o.5(phen)(OH)]_n (1), has been hydrothermally synthesized with FeCl₃ 6H₂, Na₄bta (h₄bta = 1,2,4,5-benzentetracarboxylic acid), 1,10-phen (1,10-phenanthroline) and H₂O as raw materials. The crystals of the compound belong to monoclinic P2₁/n space group, a = 1.0129(2) nm, b = 0.9265(2) nm, c = 1.5696(3) nm, β=91.37(3)°V=1.4721(5) nm³,Z=3, final R₁=0.0292, wR ₂=0.0798 for 2572 [/>2σ(/)] observed reflections. The result of structure determination shows that in the compound each bta ligand is connected with four Fe³, forming a new μ4-coordination mode. Four deprotonated carboxylic groups of bta link to Fe³ ions alternatively through monodentate and bidentate coordination fashion, constructing 2D layer network. The measurement of variable temperature magnetic susceptibility indicates that there exist antiferromagnetic interactions between Fe³ ions in the compound. The TGA spectrum displays relatively fine thermal stability of the compound. In addition, IR and UV-Vis spectra of compound 1 have also been measured.

Pb(II) and Mn(II) Coordination Compounds Involving 5,5′‐(1,4‐Phenylene)bis(1H‐tetrazole):Synthesis,Characterization, and Effect on Thermal Decomposition of Ammonium Perchlorate

Two coordination compounds [Pb₄(BDT)₃(OH)₂(H₂O)₄]·H₂O ( 1 ) and [Mn(H₂O)₆]·(HBDT)₂·2H₂O ( 2 ) [H₂BDT?5,5′‐(1,4‐phenylene)bis(1H‐tetrazole)] had been hydrothermally synthesized. 1 and 2 had been characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, IR, elemental and thermal analyses. Structural analysis reveals that 1 exhibits 2D layer structure extended through BDT with two different coordination modes rings in transverse and vertical. 2 consists of [Mn(H₂O)₆]²⁺, free HBDT and water. In addition, 1 and 2 were explored as luminescent materials and additives to promote the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate by differential scanning calorimetry.     

Constructions of Beyond-Birthday Secure PRFs from Random Permutations,Revisited

In CRYPTO 2019, Chen et al. showed how to construct pseudorandom functions (PRFs) from random permutations (RPs), and they gave one beyond-birthday secure construction from sum of Even-Mansour, namely SoEM22 in the single-key setting. In this paper, we improve their work by proving the multi-key security of SoEM22, and further tweaking SoEM22 but still preserving beyond birthday bound (BBB) security. Furthermore, we use only one random permutation to construct parallelizable and succinct beyond-birthday secure PRFs in the multi-key setting, and then tweak this new construction. Moreover, with a slight modification of our constructions of tweakable PRFs, two parallelizable nonce based MACs for variable length messages are obtained.     

Calculation of acoustical radiation force on microsphere by spherically-focused source

Based on the ray acoustics approach, the trapping effects on a microsphere by an ideally spherically-focused ultrasound are discussed. The acoustical radiation force from a focused ultrasound beam on a spherical particle in a three-dimensional sound field is calculated considering the effect of the attenuation of the ultrasound beam both inside the particle and in the surrounding medium. The results show that as long as the particle is in the range of the ultrasound beam and as long as the appropriate parameters of the transducer are selected, the particle will be captured in the vicinity of the focus of the ultrasound beam. Also, the particle radius and different parameters of the transducer are analyzed for their affect on the radiation force.

Study of acoustic nonlinearity parameter imaging methods in reflection mode for biological tissues

Three novel methods for acoustic nonlinearity parameter B/A imaging in reflection mode are developed in this paper. They are: (1) the acoustic nonlinearity parameter B/A tomography by detecting reflective second harmonic wave, (2) the B/A tomography in reflection mode via the measurement of the difference frequency wave generated by a parametric array, and (3) the C-scan imaging of B/A via the measurement of the echo second-harmonic signal. A theoretical analysis and the experimental imaging of normal and pathological biological tissues by using these methods are also present and discussed. Results show that using the acoustic nonlinearity parameter imaging we can more easily distinguish the diseased tissue from the normal one than using the linear acoustic parameters.     

Aircraft recognition based on improved iterative threshold selection and skeleton Zernike moment

Using the visible optics images to identify targets is an important part in the development of remote sensing technology. In this paper, a new aircraft recognition method based on the improved iterative threshold selection and the skeleton Zernike moment is presented. The method segment aircraft targets under complex background using iterative threshold selection with between-class distance and scatter, and calculate the skeleton Zernike moment for the aircraft target recognition using template matching method. The experimental results show that the new method can effectively achieve the target segmentation under complex backgrounds, and provide a satisfactory performance both in recognition rate and recognition speed.
