Generic preparation and entanglement detection of equal superposition states

Quantum superposition is a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics, so it is not surprising that equal superposition states (ESS) serve as powerful resources for quantum information processing. In this work, we propose a quantum circuit that creates an arbitrary dimensional ESS. The circuit construction is efficient as the number of required elementary gates scales polynomially with the number of required qubits. For experimental realization of the method, we use techniques of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR).We have succeeded in preparing a 9-dimensional ESS on a 4-qubit NMR quantum register. The full tomography indicates that the fidelity of our prepared state with respect to the ideal 9-dimensional ESS is over 96%. We also prove the prepared state is pseudo-entangled by directly measuring an entanglement witness operator. Our result can be useful for the implementation of those quantum algorithms that require an ESS as an input state.     

Influence of tetraborate anions on manganese electrodeposition in an anion-exchange membrane electrolysis reactor

The influences of tetraborate anions on manganese electrodeposition in an anion-exchange membrane electrolysis reactor were investigated. The experimental results of manganese electrodeposition indicate that a certain amount of tetraborate anions can increase cathode current efficiency and initial pH 7.0–8.0 is suitable for high cathode current efficiency. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis show the nanocrystalline structure and impact morphology of electrodeposited manganese. The purity of electrodeposited manganese is above 99.88 %. The tests of tetraborate anions on buffer capacity (β) and pH value of the electrolyte near the cathode surface confirm that tetraborate anions facilitate manganese electrodeposition. Tetraborate anions can improve concentration polarization of Mn²⁺ ions and then increase the overpotential of hydrogen evolution reaction. Therefore, ammonium tetraborate can reduce the hydrogen embrittlement, pore, and pitting negative effect on electrodeposit surface, to improve the corrosion resistance of electrodeposited manganese. After tetraborate anions being added in electrolyte, weight loss measurement indicates that the corrosion resistance of electrodeposited manganese is improved. Electrochemical measurements testify that corrosion resistance of electrodeposited manganese containing tetraborate anions in electrolyte is reflected by less negative corrosion potential and higher impedance.     

Layered lithium-rich oxide nanoparticles: low-temperature synthesis in mixed molten salt and excellent performance as cathode of lithium-ion battery

Layered lithium-rich oxide, 0.5Li₂MnO₃·0.5LiMn_1/3Ni_1/3Co_1/3O₂, is synthesized in a mixed molten salt of KCl and LiCl under 750 °C. Its morphology and structure are characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and nitrogen adsorption and desorption isotherm, and its performances as cathode of lithium-ion battery are investigated by charge–discharge test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, with a comparison of the samples synthesized via solid-state reaction. It is found that the resulting product consists of uniform nanoparticles, 50 nm in average, which possesses a well crystallite layered structure although its synthesis temperature is low and thus exhibits excellent cyclic stability and rate capability. The resulting product delivers an initial discharge capacity of 268 mAh g^?1 at 0.1 C and has a capacity retention of 82% after 100 cycles at 1 C, compared to the 243 mAh g^?1 and 73% for the sample synthesized by solid-state reaction under 900 °C.     

Effects of different precipitants on LiNi<Subscript>0.5</Subscript>Mn<Subscript>1.5</Subscript>O<Subscript>4</Subscript> for lithium ion batteries prepared by modified co-precipitation method

Effects of two different precipitants of Na₂CO₃ and Na₂C₂O₄ on LiNi_0.5Mn_1.5O₄ (LNMO) cathode materials, which are prepared by a modified co-precipitation method, have been investigated. Various measurements have been applied to characterize the physical and electrochemical performances of LNMO. Compared with the LNMO prepared by the oxalate co-precipitation (LNMO2), the material synthesized by the carbonate co-precipitation (LNMO1) not only shows more uniform porosity and smaller particles but also has a better rate capability and cycling performance. In addition, the sample prepared by carbonate has a stable spherical structure, due to the fact that carbonate co-precipitation with less gas release during calcination can prevent the destruction of the as-prepared LNMO material structure and promote the formation of regular particle and aperture. Based on the electrochemical test results, LNMO1 shows greatly enhanced electrochemical performance of a high initial discharge capacity of 125.6 mAh g^?1 at 0.25 °C, as well as a preferably capacity retention of 96.5% after 100 cycles at 0.5 °C. And even at a high rate of 10 °C, the discharge capacity of LNMO1-based cell still approaches 83.1 mAh g^?1.     

Porous NiO hollow quasi-nanospheres derived from a new metal-organic framework template as high-performance anode materials for lithium ion batteries

Porous hollow metal oxides derived from nanoscaled metal-organic framework (MOF) have drawn tremendous attention due to their high electrochemical performance in advanced Li-ion batteries (LIBs). In this work, porous NiO hollow quasi-nanospheres were fabricated by an ordinary refluxing reaction combination of a thermal decomposition of new nanostructured Ni-MOF, i.e., {Ni₃(HCOO)₆·DMF}_n. When evaluated as an anode material for lithium ion batteries, the MOF derived NiO electrode exhibits high capacity, good cycling stability and rate performance (760 mAh g^?1 at 200 mA g^?1 after 100 cycles, 392 mAh g^?1 at 3200 mA g^?1). This superior lithium storage performance is mainly attributed to the unique hollow and porous nanostructure of the as-synthesized NiO, which offer enough space to accommodate the dramstic volume change and alleviate the pulverization problem during the repeated lithiation/delithiation processes, and provide more electro-active sites for fast electrochemical reactions as well as promote lithium ions and electrons transfer at the electrolyte/electrode interface.
