Temperature dependence of magnetic properties and change of specific heat in perovskite ErCrO3 chromites

In this paper, the temperature dependence of magnetic properties and specific heat are systematically investigated for perovskite ErCrO₃ chromites. The results show that there exists a strong temperature dependence of magnetic ordering and phase coexistence in the region of low temperature. Specifically, ErCrO₃ possesses the long-range antiferromagnetic ordering and the appearance of weak ferromagnetism, occurring at T _N =133 K. In the range of higher temperature, above 133.0 K, the reciprocal of magnetic susceptibility χ ⁻¹ behaves linearly, indicating a typical Curie–Weiss behavior fitted. The effective magnetic moment μ _eff=10.57μ _B and asymptotic paramagnetic Curie temperature T _cw=−30 K, which suggests the predominance of antiferromagnetic interactions in ErCrO₃ chromites. Around T _SR≈22 K, ErCrO₃ undergoes a spin reorientation from \varGamma ₄(G_x,A_y,F_z;F^R_z)\varGamma _{4}(G_{x},A_{y},F_{z};F^{R}_{z}) to \varGamma ₁(A_x,G_y,C_z;C^R_z)\varGamma _{1}(A_{x},G_{y},C_{z};C^{R}_{z}) or Γ ₁(0). Also, the stability of the ferromagnetic Γ ₄ phase increases with increasing applied field. Furthermore, the ac susceptibilities exhibit frequency-independent anomalies near 133 K and the coexistence of the magnetic configuration \varGamma ₂(F_x,G_y,C_z;F^R_x,C^R_y)\varGamma _{2}(F_{x},G_{y},C_{z};F^{R}_{x},C^{R}_{y}) and Γ ₄. Combining the magnetic properties and the specific-heat measurements, this current magnetization can be interpreted from the interaction between C ^r3+–Cr³⁺, Cr³⁺–Er³⁺ and Er³⁺–Er³⁺.     

One color contrast enhanced infrared and visible image fusion method

Color constancy (Toet and Franken, 2003 [2]; Toet, 2003 [7]) and color contrast (Scribner et al., 2000 [21]; Lee et al., 2005 [23]) are two important topics for color image fusion. The paper focuses on the low color contrast problem of linear fusion algorithms with color transfer method. Color transfer technology is popular in infrared (IR) and visible image fusion to give the fused image a natural day-time color appearance (Toet, 2003 [7]; Wang et al., 2007 [8]; Zheng and Essock, 2008 [9]). However, in the color transfer step, all three channels of the color space are processed with the same linear mapping without color enhancement, resulting in low color contrast between the target and the background (Wang et al., 2007 [8]). Based on the characteristics of the IR image, we introduce a ratio of local to global divergence of the IR image to improve the color contrast. The enhancement ratios for both hot and cold targets are larger than one, while it tends to one for the background. As a result, the proposed method pops out both hot and cold targets in color, where hot targets will appear intense red, and cold targets will appear cyan. Subjective results show visible color contrast enhancement effects. Target detection experiments through hue and saturation components of the fused image show an improvement in the hit rate for target detection, owing to larger color distance between the target and the background.     

密度泛函理论计算内掺氢分子富勒烯H2@C60及其二聚体的几何结构和电子结构

采用密度泛函理论中的广义梯度近似(generalized gradient approximation, 简称GGA),对内掺氢分子富勒烯H2@C60及其二聚体的几何结构和电子结构进行了计算研究.发现无论是在H2@C60单体,还是在其二聚体中,氢倾向以分子形式存在于碳笼中心处,且在室温下氢分子可以做自由旋转.电子结构分析表明,氢分子掺入到C60和C120中,仅对距离费米能级以下-8eV至-5eV能级处有一定的贡献,其他能级的分布和能隙几乎没有变化.     

Widely phase-matched tunable difference-frequency generation in periodically poled LiNbO3 crystal

We report on the development of a laser source in the mid-infrared spectral region based on difference-frequency generation (DFG) in a periodically poled LiNbO₃ (PPLN) crystal. Continuously tunable coherent radiation from 2.75 to 4.78 μm was produced by optical parametric interaction between a diode-pumped monolithic continuous-wave (CW) Nd:YAG laser operating at 1.064 μm and a CW Ti:Sapphire laser tunable from 767 to 871 nm. Temperature-dependent quasi-phase-matched DFG wavelength acceptance bandwidth was studied and characterized. An empiric formula is given to estimate the phase-matched wavelength acceptance bandwidth as a function of the crystal temperature at Λ = 22.5 μm. A large frequency scan of 128 cm⁻¹ (about 78 cm⁻¹ above 1 μW) near 4.2 μm was achieved. The whole absorption spectrum of the P and R branches of the ν₃ band of atmospheric carbon dioxide has been recorded with a single phase-matched frequency scan.

Variational principles for two kinds of extended Korteweg—de Vries equations

Variational principles are constructed using the semi-inverse method for two kinds of extended Korteweg—de Vries (KdV) equations, which can be regarded as simple models of the nonlinear oceanic internal waves and atmospheric long waves, respectively. The obtained variational principles have also been proved to be correct.
