Status Set Sequential Pattern Mining Considering Time Windows and Periodic Analysis of Patterns

The traditional sequential pattern mining method is carried out considering the whole time period and often ignores the sequential patterns that only occur in local time windows, as well as possible periodicity. Therefore, in order to overcome the limitations of traditional methods, this paper proposes status set sequential pattern mining with time windows (SSPMTW). In contrast to traditional methods, the item status is considered, and time windows, minimum confidence, minimum coverage, minimum factor set ratios and other constraints are added to mine more valuable rules in local time windows. The periodicity of these rules is also analyzed. According to the proposed method, this paper improves the Apriori algorithm, proposes the TW-Apriori algorithm, and explains the basic idea of the algorithm. Then, the feasibility, validity and efficiency of the proposed method and algorithm are verified by small-scale and large-scale examples. In a large-scale numerical example solution, the influence of various constraints on the mining results is analyzed. Finally, the solution results of SSPM and SSPMTW are compared and analyzed, and it is suggested that SSPMTW can excavate the laws existing in local time windows and analyze the periodicity of the laws, which solves the problem of SSPM ignoring the laws existing in local time windows and overcomes the limitations of traditional sequential pattern mining algorithms. In addition, the rules mined by SSPMTW reduce the entropy of the system.     

Anisotropic charge transport in flavonoids as organic semiconductors

A quantum mechanical approach has been used to investigate on the potential for using two naturally occurring flavonoids: quercetin and luteolin as candidates for organic semiconductor. Selection of flavonoids enables to evaluate the effects of hydroxyl group structural features. The relationship between molecular packing and charge transport in flavonoids is presented. The calculated results indicate that quercetin should be an ideal candidate as high-performance p-type organic semiconductor material, while luteolin is predicted as n-type organic semiconductor material. The predicted maximum electron mobility value of quercetin is 0.075 cm² V^?1 s^?1, which appears at the orientation angle near 91°/271° of conducting channel on the reference planes b–c. Theoretical investigation of natural semiconductors is helpful for designing higher performance electronic materials used in biochemical and industrial field to replace expensive and rare organic materials.     

Comparison of the Kinetics of the Exchange Mechanism of the Thallium Ion with 18C6 and with Pentaglyme in Acetonitrile Solutions

Abstract

In acetonitrile solutions, the exchange reaction is bimolecular in the Tl⁺ + 18C6 system, while in the Tl⁺ + pentaglyme system the associative-dissociative and the bimolecular mechanisms coexist at room temperature and the bimolecular exchange reaction dominates at 263° K. For the bimolecular mechanism in the case of Tl⁺ + 18C6 and the associative-dissociative mechanism in the case of Tl⁺ + pentaglyme, the activation energies of the exchange reactions change with temperature. At 298° K, in the Tl⁺ + 18C6 system the activation energy for the bimolecular exchange reaction is ≈ 2 kcal.mol^?1 and exchange rate constant (k₁) is (4.1 ± 0.1) × 10⁷ s^?1mol^?1; in the Tl⁺ + pentaglyme system, the activation energy for the associative-dissociative exchange reaction is ≈ 5 kcal mol^?1 and the decomplexation rate constant (k_?2) is (2.2 ± 0.4) X 10⁵ s^?1. The activation energy for the bimolecular exchange in the Tl⁺ + pentaglyme system was determined to be 3.00 ± 0.05 kcal.mol_?1 and the exchange rate constant (3.0 ± 0.1) X 10⁸ s^?1 mol^?1.     

Theoretical investigation of the spin-Hamiltonian parameters and optical spectra for the doped Cu2+ in ZnCdO nanopowder

The spin-Hamiltonian (SH) parameters (g factors g_||, g_⊥ and hyperfine structure constants A_||, A_⊥) and d–d transitions for ZnCdO:Cu²⁺ are calculated based on the perturbation formulas for a 3d⁹ ion in tetragonally elongated octahedra. Good agreement between the calculated results (four SH parameters and three optical absorption bands) and the experimental results can be obtained. Since the SH parameters are sensitive to the local structure of a paramagnetic impurity center, the tetragonal distortion (characterized by the relative elongation ratio ρ ≈ 3.5% along the C₄ axis) of the impurity center due to the Jahn–Teller effect is also acquired from the calculations. The negative and positive signs of hyperfine structure constants A_|| and A_⊥ for ZnCdO:Cu²⁺, respectively, are also suggested in the discussions.

Microstructure evolution and passivation quality of hydrogenated amorphous silicon oxide(a-SiOx:H) on〈100〉- and 〈111〉-orientated c-Si wafers

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon oxide(a-SiOx:H) is an attractive passivation material to suppress epitaxial growth and reduce the parasitic absorption loss in silicon heterojunction(SHJ) solar cells. In this paper, a-SiOx:H layers on different orientated c-Si substrates are fabricated. An optimal effective lifetime(τ(eff)) of 4743 μs and corresponding implied opencircuit voltage(iV(oc)) of 724 mV are obtained on〈100〉-orientated c-Si wafers. While τ(eff) of 2429 μs and iV_oc of 699 mV are achieved on 111-orientated substrate. The FTIR and XPS results indicate that the a-SiOx:H network consists of SiOx(Si-rich), Si–OH, Si–O–SiHx, SiO2 ≡ Si–Si, and O3 ≡ Si–Si. A passivation evolution mechanism is proposed to explain the different passivation results on different c-Si wafers. By modulating the a-SiOx:H layer, the planar silicon heterojunction solar cell can achieve an efficiency of 18.15%.     

In-situ SiN combined with etch-stop barrier structure for high-frequency AlGaN/GaN HEMT

The etch-stop structure including the in-situ SiN and AlGaN/GaN barrier is proposed for high frequency applications.The etch-stop process is realized by placing an in-situ SiN layer on the top of the thin AlGaN barrier.F-based etching can be self-terminated after removing SiN,leaving the AlGaN barrier in the gate region.With this in-situ SiN and thin barrier etch-stop structure,the short channel effect can be suppressed,meanwhile achieving highly precisely controlled and low damage etching process.The device shows a maximum drain current of 1022 mA/mm,a peak transconductance of 459 mS/mm,and a maximum oscillation frequency(fmax)of 248 GHz.

Halogen bond between hypervalent halogens YF3/YF5 (Y=Cl,Br, I) and H2X (X= O,S, Se)

ABSTRACT

The complexes of H₂X (X?=?O, S, Se) with hypervalent halogens YF₃ and YF₅ (Y?=?Cl, Br, I) have been studied. The σ-hole on the Y atom participates in a halogen bond with the lone pair on the chalcogen atom. In addition, some secondary interactions coexist with the halogen bond in most complexes. The interaction energy correlates with the nature of both X and Y atoms. In most cases, the complex is more stable for the heavier Y atom and the lighter X atom. Of course, there are some exceptions in H₂X···YF₃. YF₃ forms a more stable complex with H₂X than does YF₅. These complexes are dominated by electrostatic interaction and the halogen bond involving H₂S and H₂Se exhibits some covalent character.

Halogen bond plays an important role in chemical reactions and multivalent halogens can regulate chemical reactions by participating in a halogen bond. Thus we compare the effect of the chalcogen electron donor on the strength and nature of halogen bonding involving multivalent halogens.     

Applications of Markov spectra for the weighted partition network by the substitution rule

The weighted self-similar network is introduced in an iterative way. In order to understand the topological properties of the self-similar network, we have done a lot of research in this field.Firstly, according to the symmetry feature of the self-similar network, we deduce the recursive relationship of its eigenvalues at two successive generations of the transition-weighted matrix.Then, we obtain eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix from these two successive generations.Finally, we calculate an accurate expression for the eigentime identity and Kirchhoff index from the spectrum of the Laplacian matrix.
