Thermal entanglement in a mixed-spin Heisenberg XXZ model under a nonuniform external magnetic field

The thermal entanglement in (1/2,1) mixed-spin Heisenberg XXZ model is investigated under an external nonuniform magnetic field. In the uniform magnetic field system, the critical magnetic field B _c and critical temperature T _c are increased by increasing the anisotropic parameter k. The degree of magnetic field b plays an important role in improving the critical temperature and enlarging the region of entanglement in the nonuniform magnetic field system.     

Long-distance quantum teleportation assisted with free-space entanglement distribution

Faithful long-distance quantum teleportation necessitates prior entanglement distribution between two communicated locations. The particle carrying on the unknown quantum information is then combined with one particle of the entangled states for Bell-state measurements, which leads to a transfer of the original quantum information onto the other particle of the entangled states. However in most of the implemented teleportation experiments nowadays, the Bell-state measurements are performed even before successful distribution of entanglement. This leads to an instant collapse of the quantum state for the transmitted particle, which is actually a single-particle transmission thereafter. Thus the true distance for quantum teleportation is, in fact, only in a level of meters. In the present experiment we design a novel scheme which has overcome this limit by utilizing fiber as quantum memory. A complete quantum teleportation is achieved upon successful entanglement distribution over 967 meters in public free space. Active feed-forward control techniques are developed for real-time transfer of quantum information. The overall experimental fidelities for teleported states are better than 89.6%, which signify high-quality teleportation.     

Optimizing Design for the Traveling Wave Electrodes in Low-Drive High-Speed Electro-Optic Polymer Modulators

Electro-optic (EO) polymer modulators are very promising in the realization of cost-effective and high-performance optical transmissions. In this article, general strategies and specific designs of the traveling wave electrodes in EO polymer modulators were presented to reduce the modulator drive power while maintaining a broadband response. The optimum device parameters and corresponding conditions were estimated using finite element method based on electrode design. In calculating the results, the comprehensive characteristics of polymer modulator with 1.21 V half-wave voltage and 91 GHz bandwidth was demonstrated with electro-optic interaction length is 20 mm, electro-optic coefficient is 55 pm/V, and operation wavelength is 1.319 μm. These results agree with the 0.8 V half-wave voltage and 30 mm electro-optic interaction length reported in Science. In the five designs presented, a hybrid electrode structure combining CPW and microstrip lines were advanced. The characteristics of this structure are like that of microstrip lines with a single-arm electrode on one arm of the waveguide, but it solves the problem of microstrip to coaxial line transition and corona polarization.     

Alternative difference analysis scheme combining R‐space EXAFS fit with global optimization XANES fit for X‐ray transient absorption spectroscopy

Time‐resolved X‐ray absorption spectroscopy (TR‐XAS), based on the laser‐pump/X‐ray‐probe method, is powerful in capturing the change of the geometrical and electronic structure of the absorbing atom upon excitation. TR‐XAS data analysis is generally performed on the laser‐on minus laser‐off difference spectrum. Here, a new analysis scheme is presented for the TR‐XAS difference fitting in both the extended X‐ray absorption fine‐structure (EXAFS) and the X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) regions. R‐space EXAFS difference fitting could quickly provide the main quantitative structure change of the first shell. The XANES fitting part introduces a global non‐derivative optimization algorithm and optimizes the local structure change in a flexible way where both the core XAS calculation package and the search method in the fitting shell are changeable. The scheme was applied to the TR‐XAS difference analysis of Fe(phen)₃ spin crossover complex and yielded reliable distance change and excitation population.     

Evaluation of ADC measurements among solid pancreatic masses by respiratory-triggered diffusion-weighted MR imaging with inversion-recovery fat-suppression technique at 3.0 T

Purpose

The objective of this paper was to investigate the value of apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) for differential diagnosis among solid pancreatic masses using respiratory triggered diffusion-weighted MR imaging with inversion-recovery fat-suppression technique (RT-IR-DWI) at 3.0 T.

Materials and Methods

20 normal volunteers and 72 patients (Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma [PDCA, n = 30], mass-forming pancreatitis [MFP, n = 15], solid pseudopapillary neoplasm [SPN, n = 12], and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor[PNET, n = 15]) underwent RT-IR-DWI (b values: 0 and 600 s/mm²) at 3.0 T. Results were correlated with histopathologic data and follow-up imaging. ADC values among different types of pancreatic tissue were statistically analyzed and compared.

Results

Statistical difference was noticed in ADC values among normal pancreas, MFP, PDCA, SPN and PNET by ANOVA (p < .001). Normal pancreas had the highest ADC value, then followed by PNET, PDCA, MFP and SPN. There was noticeable statistical difference in ADC values among PDCA, MFP and normal pancreas by Least Significant Difference (LSD) (p < .001). ADC of SPN was statistically lower than that of PNET (p = 0.1800 × 10^− 4), PDCA (p = 0.0300 × 10^− 4) and normal pancreas (p = 0.0007 × 10^− 4). ADC of PNET was statistically lower than that of normal pancreas (p = 0.0360) and higher than that of MFP (p = 9.3000 × 10^− 4).

Conclusions

ADC measurements using RT-IR-DWI at 3.0 T may aid to disclose the histopathological pattern of normal pancreas and solid pancreatic masses, which may be helpful in characterizing solid pancreatic lesions.     

Real time NDE of laser shock processing with time-of-flight of laser induced plasma shock wave in air by acoustic emission sensor

Acoustic emission sensor is used to research the time-of-flight of the shock wave induced by laser-plasma in air for real time nondestructive evaluation (NDE) of laser shock processing. The time-of-flight of the shock wave propagating from the source to the sensor declines nonlinearly and similarly at the different distances for different laser energies. The velocity of the shock wave at the distance of 30 mm increases faster than that of the distance of 35 mm. The relationship between the laser energy and the distance is almost linearly when the signal with distortion is measured by acoustic emission sensor. Finally, Taylor solution is used to analyze the experimental results, and the empirical formula between the energy of the shock wave and the laser energy is established, which will provide a theoretical basis for real time NDE of laser shock processing.     

Mutually Unbiasedness between Maximally Entangled Bases and Unextendible Maximally Entangled Systems in $\mathbb {C}^{2}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{2^{k}}$

The mutually unbiasedness between a maximally entangled basis (MEB) and an unextendible maximally entangled system (UMES) in the bipartite system \(\mathbb {C}^{2}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{2^{k}} (k>1)\) are introduced and discussed first in this paper. Then two mutually unbiased pairs of a maximally entangled basis and an unextendible maximally entangled system are constructed; lastly, explicit constructions are obtained for mutually unbiased MEB and UMES in \(\mathbb {C}^{2}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{4}\) and \(\mathbb {C}^{2}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{8}\), respectively.     

Local discrimination scheme for some unitary operations

It has been shown that for two different multipartite unitary operations U_1 and U_2, when tr(U_1~?U_2) = 0, they can always be perfectly distinguished by local operations and classical communication in the single-run scenario. However, how to find the detailed scheme to complete the local discrimination is still a fascinating problem. In this paper, aiming at some U_1 and U_2 acting on the bipartite and tripartite space respectively, especially for U_1~?U_2 locally unitary equivalent to the high dimensional X-type hermitian unitary matrix V with trV = 0, we put forward the explicit local distinguishing schemes in the single-run scenario.
