内孤立波沿缓坡地形传播特性的实验研究

以南中国海东北部海域底部缓坡地形为背景, 在大型重力式分层流水槽中模拟了下凹型内孤立波沿缓坡地形传播过程中的浅化、破碎、分裂等现象, 利用分层染色标识方法和多点组合探头阵列技术对内孤立波沿缓坡地形演化特征进行了定性分析和定量测量. 实验表明: 浅化效应使内孤立波传播速度减小, 对大振幅内孤立波具有抑制作用, 对小振幅波具有放大效应; 浅化效应可导致内孤立波的剪切失稳及破碎, 还可导致大振幅内孤立波的分裂. 利用Miles稳定性理论可定性描述内孤立波沿缓坡地形传播时发生不稳定状态的位置, 实验结果与理论分析相符合. 关键词： 分层流 缓坡地形 内孤立波 不稳定性     

GPS/LEO掩星正则变换反演方法

利用无线电全息方法, 如正则变换方法或全谱反演方法, 可以有效地解决大气多路径条件下GPS掩星信号的反演问题. 本文采用正则变换方法反演掩星资料, 模拟仿真反演结果显示正则变换方法可以准确地反演包含大气多路径效应的信号. 在模拟信号的相位中加入不同程度的高斯相位噪声后, 正则变换方法的反演结果会受到不同程度的影响. 用正则变换方法对2007年第71天至73天共约4500个COSMIC数据进行处理. 将其折射率反演结果和atmPrf资料 (利用全谱反演方法计算得到) 一起, 与对应的ECMWF 分析场资料进行统计比较, 结果表明: 在5 km以下, 正则变换方法计算的折射率的相对误差的平均值普遍大于atmPrf资料. 其原因可能为: 正则变换方法将信号从LEO轨迹后传播至辅助屏, 造成孔径缩小, 精度下降. 同时也讨论了信号截断对低对流层中反演精度和掩星个数的影响. 关键词： 无线电掩星 大气多路径 多相位屏技术 正则变换方法     

A distortion correction algorithm for fish-eye panoramic image of master-slave visual surveillance system

A master-slave visual surveillance system is composed of one fish-eye panoramic camera and one dynamic pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) dome camera. In order to make PTZ dome camera zoom into all targets of interest in panoramic image, the fish-eye panoramic camera is fixed inclining towards the gravity direction, which may cause more obvious distortion. This paper proposed a novel method for the distortion correction of captured panoramic image based on the midpoint circle algorithm (MCA). The method uses incremental calculation of decision parameters to determine the pixel positions along a circle circumference, and both of the vertical and horizontal are rectilinearised. Experimental results show that our correction method based on MCA is efficient and effective. In particular, due to its low computational cost, our method can be applied on embedded camera platform without any extra hardware resources.     

Electrochemical performance of a nonaqueous rechargeable lithium-air battery

Nonaqueous rechargeable lithium-air battery has so high specific capacity and specific energy that it is being widely researched by academia, corporation, and different research institutes. When used in dried air and absorbing oxygen form the air, this battery is called lithium-air battery, and its specific capacity based on cathode active material (oxygen) is infinite. However, its cycle performance is very limited as reported by the state-of-the-art researches. This cycle problem is mainly caused by instability of electrolyte. Based on electroanalysis of materials’ electrochemical property, a stable electrolyte solvent (sulfolane) and a lithium salt LiBF₄ are selected as electrolytes in this work. Coupled with other eligible battery materials and careful assembly, the lithium-air battery exhibits favorable cycle performance. Above all, this lithium-air system is evaluated objectively in this paper.

Controllable synthesis of high aspect ratio Mg_2B_2O_5 nanowires and their applications in reinforced polyhydroxyalkanoate composites

Highly pure magnesium borate （Mg2B2O5） nanowires with an average diameter of - 30 nm, an average length of 15 μm, and a high aspect ratio of - 500 have been synthesized on a large scale via a two-step method. MgBO2（OH） nanowires with high aspect ratios were first prepared via a PVP-assisted hydrothermal technique. Using these nanowires as precursors, single crystalline Mg2B205 nanowires were synthesized by post-annealing treatment at a relatively low temperature of 700 ℃. The important effect of the MgBO2（OH）-Mg2B2O5 conversion process on the morphology of the Mg2B2O5 nanowires was investigated and it was indicated that the recrystallization process plays an important role in the protection of the one-dimensional （1D） nanostructure. Moreover, the rigidity and the toughness of the Mg2B2O5 nanowire- reinforced PHA composites were tremendously improved compared to those of the pure PHA. Our results demonstrate the effectiveness of Mg2B2O5 nanowires for reinforcement applications in polymer composites.     

A double toroidal analyzer for scanning probe electron energy spectrometer

An ultra-high vacuum(UHV) compatible electron spectrometer employing a double toroidal analyzer has been developed. It is designed to be combined with a custom-made scanning tunneling microscope(STM) to study the spatially localized electron energy spectrum on a surface. A tip–sample system composed of a piezo-driven field-emission tungsten tip and a sample of highly ordered pyrolytic graphite(HOPG) is employed to test the performance of the spectrometer.Two-dimensional images of the energy-resolved and angle-dispersed electrons backscattered from the surface of HOPG are obtained, the performance is optimized and the spectrometer is calibrated. A complete electron energy loss spectrum covering the elastic peak to the secondary electron peaks for the HOPG surface, acquired at a tip voltage of-140 V and a sample current of 0.5 pA, is presented, demonstrating the viability of the spectrometer.     

Quantum State Sharing of an Arbitrary Three-Atom State by Using Five-Atom Cluster State in Cavity QED

We present a scheme for implementing the deterministic quantum state sharing of an arbitrary three-atom state by using a five-atom cluster state and a Bell-state in cavity QED. In the scheme, it does not involve Bell-state measurement and only needs to perform the single-atom measurements. Our scheme is not sensitive to both the cavity decay and the atom radiation, which is of importance in view of decoherence.     

High-stable,double-pass forward superfluorescent fiber source based on erbium-doped photonic crystal fiber

A double-pass forward configuration superfluorescent fiber source (SFS) based on erbium-doped photonic crystal fiber (EDPCF) with a high intrinsic mean wavelength stability is presented. The main factors of SFS instability with temperature variation are analyzed. Optimization of the high-stable SFS is achieved by combining high-performance EDPCF, optimal fiber length, and source structure with fine-tuning pump power. The temperature dependence of the SFS mean wavelength has been reduced to below 0.077 ppm/°C with temperature variation from 70 to ?40 °C. To the best of our knowledge, this value is the closest to 0 ppm/°C in the reported references, and these new developments probably constitute an important step for high-accuracy interferometric fiber-optic gyroscope sources.     

Interfacial and electrical properties of HfAlO/GaSb metal-oxide-semiconductor capacitors with sulfur passivation

Interfacial and electrical properties of HfAlO/GaSb metal-oxide-semiconductor capacitors(MOSCAPs) with sulfur passivation were investigated and the chemical mechanisms of the sulfur passivation process were carefully studied. It was shown that the sulfur passivation treatment could reduce the interface trap density Ditof the HfAlO/GaSb interface by 35% and reduce the equivalent oxide thickness(EOT) from 8 nm to 4 nm. The improved properties are due to the removal of the native oxide layer, as was proven by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements and high-resolution cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy(HRXTEM) results. It was also found that GaSb-based MOSCAPs with HfAlO gate dielectrics have interfacial properties superior to those using HfO2 or Al2O3 dielectric layers.
