2D parameter optimization of Ne-like Cr x-ray laser on slab

A method of studying a non-equilibrium x-ray laser plasma is developed by extending the existing one-dimensional similarity equations to the case of two-dimensional plasma study in the directions perpendicular to the slab and along a focal line. With this method the characteristics of pre-plasma are optimized for transient neon-like Cr x-ray laser. It is found that when the duration and the intensity of 1.053μm pre-pulse are 1.2ns and 6.5 TW/cm² respectively with a delay time of 1.5ns, the temperature and the temperature discrepancy each approach a proper state, which will provide a uniform distribution of properly ionized neon-like Cr ions before the arrival of pumping pulse.     

Improving histogram-based image contrast enhancement using gray-level information histogram with application to X-ray images

Many applications of histogram-based techniques for the purposes of image enhancement are well known. However, these techniques often fail to produce satisfactory results for a broad variety of low-contrast images (e.g., X-ray images). In this paper, we propose a new form of histogram for image contrast enhancement. The input image is first divided into several equal-sized regions according to the intensities of gradients, their corresponding statistical values of gray levels are then modified respectively, and finally the processed histogram for the whole image is obtained by the summation of all the weighted values of regions. The fundamental characteristic of this new form of histogram is that the amplitudes of its components can objectively reflect the contribution of the gray levels to the representation of image information. Accordingly, this new histogram is called gray-level information histogram. The performance of many histogram-based enhancement techniques might be improved dramatically using the proposed histogram. Testing on the X-ray images validates the effectiveness of the new histogram.

Ferromagnetism in noncompensated (Mn,Ga)-codoped ZnO films

Mn/Ga noncompensated codoped ZnO films were prepared on c-cut sapphire substrates via pulsed laser deposition. The structural, magnetic, transport, and optical properties of the films were then investigated. Addition of the Ga donor increases the electron concentration and enhances the magnetization in these films because of the net negative charge of the special noncompensated codoping, which can adjust the carrier concentration as well as the magnetic moment. Moreover, the Fermi level moves into the conduction band because of the increase in electron concentration, which results in an increase in the optical band gap value, from 3.28 eV for the undoped ZnO film to 3.61 eV for the (Mn,Ga)-codoped ZnO film.     

Ionic liquid-assisted hydrothermal synthesis of dendrite-like NaY(MoO4)2:Tb phosphor

Micro-sized NaY(MoO₄)₂:Tb³⁺ phosphors with dendritic morphology was synthesized by a ionic liquid-assisted hydrothermal process. X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicated that the as-prepared product is pure tetragonal phase of NaY(MoO₄)₂. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) images showed that the as-prepared NaY(MoO₄)₂:Tb³⁺ phosphors have dendritic morphology. The photoluminescent (PL) spectra displayed that the as-prepared NaY(MoO₄)₂:Tb³⁺ phosphors show a stronger green emission with main emission wavelength 545 nm corresponding to the ⁵D₄→⁷F₅ transition of Tb³⁺ ion, and the optimal Tb³⁺ doping concentration for obtaining maximum emission intensity was confirmed to be 10 mol%. Based on Van Uitert's and Dexter's models the electric dipole–dipole (D–D) interaction was confirmed to be responsible for the concentration quenching of ⁵D₄ fluorescence of Tb³⁺ in the NaY(MoO₄)₂:Tb³⁺ phosphors. The intrinsic radiative transition lifetime of ⁵D₄ level is found to be 0.703 ms.     

Preparation of Nd-doped BiFeO3 films and their electrical properties

The Nd-doped BiFeO₃ thin films were prepared on SnO₂(FTO) substrates spin-coated by the sol–gel method using Nd(NO₃)₃·6H₂O, Fe(NO₃)₃·9H₂O and Bi(NO₃)₃·5H₂O as raw materials. The microstructure and electric properties of the BiFeO₃ thin films were characterized and tested. The results indicate that the diffraction peak of the Nd-doped BiFeO₃ films is shifted towards right as the doping amounts are increased. The structure is transformed from the rhombohedral to pseudotetragonal phase. The crystal grain is changed from an elliptical to irregular polyhedron. Structure transition occurring in the Bi_0.85Nd_0.15FeO₃ films gives rise to the largest Pr of 64 μC/cm². The leakage conductance of the Nd doped thin films is reduced. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of Bi_0.85Nd_0.15FeO₃ thin film at 10 kHz are 190 and 0.017 respectively.     

Preservation of entanglement in a two-qubit-spin coupled system

A theoretical scheme for preserving the entanglement in a two-qubit-spin coupled system in the presence of Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) anisotropic antisymmetric interaction is proposed. On the basis of a sequence of operations performed periodically on the system, the scheme can preserve the entanglement of the system starting from any initial state with any desired high precision for any desired long duration.

An improved loopless mounting method for cryocrystallography

Based on a recent loopless mounting method, a simplified loopless and bufferless crystal mounting method is developed for macromolecular crystallography. This simplified crystal mounting system is composed of the following components: a home-made glass capillary, a brass seat for holding the glass capillary, a flow regulator, and a vacuum pump for evacuation. Compared with the currently prevalent loop mounting method, this simplified method has almost the same mounting procedure and thus is compatible with the current automated crystal mounting system. The advantages of this method include higher signal-to-noise ratio, more accurate measurement, more rapid flash cooling, less x-ray absorption and thus less radiation damage to the crystal. This method can be extended to the flash-freeing of a crystal without or with soaking it in a lower concentration of cryoprotectant, thus it may be the best option for data collection in the absence of suitable cryoprotectant. Therefore, it is suggested that this mounting method should be further improved and extensively applied to cryocrystallographic experiments.
