Electro-optic detection of femtosecond electromagnetic pulses by use of poled polymers

We report the generation and coherent detection of freely propagating ultrashort baseband electromagnetic pulses. Using optical rectification in ?110? GaAs for wideband emission and electro-optic sampling in a poled polymer for wideband detection, we demonstrate spectral sensitivity that extends from the far infrared (lambda~100 mum) to ~33 THz(lambda = 9 mum) . Over a band of nearly 20 THz, a relatively flat frequency response is observed. We discuss issues that limit the response bandwidth.     

Facile and Scalable Synthesis of Si@void@C Embedded in Interconnected 3D Porous Carbon Architecture for High Performance Lithium-Ion Batteries

Si-based materials possess huge potential as an excellent anode material for Li-ion batteries. However, how to realize scalable synthesis of Si-based anode with a long cycling life and high-performance is still a critical challenge. Here a water-in-oil microemulsion process followed by UV illumination, calcination, and hydrothermal method to produce yolk-shell Si@void@C embedded in interconnected 3D porous carbon network architecture using silicon nanoparticles is reported. As a result, the sample Si@void@C/C-2 electrode has achieved a reversible capacity of 1160 mA h g⁻¹ at 0.2 A g⁻¹ after 300 cycles and a stable long cycling life of 480 mA h g⁻¹ at 1 A g⁻¹ after 1000 cycles. A full battery with the synthesized anode shows a capacity of 128 mA h g⁻¹ at 0.2 A g⁻¹ as well as good cycling stability after 1100th cycles. Such excellent electrochemical performance is ascribed to its unique structure, the yolk-shell void space, highly robust carbon shells and interconnected porous carbon nets that can improve the conductivity of the electrode, buffer the volume expansion, and also suppress Si nanoparticles stress variation. This water-in oil system makes it possible for mass production of environmentally friendly synthesis of core–shell structure.     

A Caputo–Fabrizio Fractional-Order Model of HIV/AIDS with a Treatment Compartment: Sensitivity Analysis and Optimal Control Strategies

Although most of the early research studies on fractional-order systems were based on the Caputo or Riemann–Liouville fractional-order derivatives, it has recently been proven that these methods have some drawbacks. For instance, kernels of these methods have a singularity that occurs at the endpoint of an interval of definition. Thus, to overcome this issue, several new definitions of fractional derivatives have been introduced. The Caputo–Fabrizio fractional order is one of these nonsingular definitions. This paper is concerned with the analyses and design of an optimal control strategy for a Caputo–Fabrizio fractional-order model of the HIV/AIDS epidemic. The Caputo–Fabrizio fractional-order model of HIV/AIDS is considered to prevent the singularity problem, which is a real concern in the modeling of real-world systems and phenomena. Firstly, in order to find out how the population of each compartment can be controlled, sensitivity analyses were conducted. Based on the sensitivity analyses, the most effective agents in disease transmission and prevalence were selected as control inputs. In this way, a modified Caputo–Fabrizio fractional-order model of the HIV/AIDS epidemic is proposed. By changing the contact rate of susceptible and infectious people, the atraumatic restorative treatment rate of the treated compartment individuals, and the sexual habits of susceptible people, optimal control was designed. Lastly, simulation results that demonstrate the appropriate performance of the Caputo–Fabrizio fractional-order model and proposed control scheme are illustrated.     

Misalignment Fault Prediction of Wind Turbines Based on Improved Artificial Fish Swarm Algorithm

A misalignment fault is a kind of potential fault in double-fed wind turbines. The reasonable and effective fault prediction models are used to predict its development trend before serious faults occur, which can take measures to repair in advance and reduce human and material losses. In this paper, the Least Squares Support Vector Machine optimized by the Improved Artificial Fish Swarm Algorithm is used to predict the misalignment index of the experiment platform. The mixed features of time domain, frequency domain, and time-frequency domain indexes of vibration or stator current signals are the inputs of the Least Squares Support Vector Machine. The kurtosis of the same signals is the output of the model, and the 3σ principle of the normal distribution is adopted to set the warning line of misalignment fault. Compared with other optimization algorithms, the experimental results show that the proposed prediction model can predict the development trend of the misalignment index with the least prediction error.     

Contract Theory-Based Incentive Mechanism for Full Duplex Cooperative NOMA with SWIPT Communication Networks

Cooperative Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) with Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer (SWIPT) communication can not only effectively improve the spectrum efficiency and energy efficiency of wireless networks but also extend their coverage. An important design issue is to incentivize a full duplex (FD) relaying center user to participate in the cooperative process and achieve a win–win situation for both the base station (BS) and the center user. Some private information of the center users are hidden from the BS in the network. A contract theory-based incentive mechanism under this asymmetric information scenario is applied to incentivize the center user to join the cooperative communication to maximize the BS’s benefit utility and to guarantee the center user’s expected payoff. In this work, we propose a matching theory-based Gale–Shapley algorithm to obtain the optimal strategy with low computation complexity in the multi-user pairing scenario. Simulation results indicate that the network performance of the proposed FD cooperative NOMA and SWIPT communication is much better than the conventional NOMA communication, and the benefit utility of the BS with the stable match strategy is nearly close to the multi-user pairing scenario with complete channel state information (CSI), while the center users get the satisfied expected payoffs.

Crystalline Morphology and Nonisothermal Crystallization Behaviors of iPP/PcBR Blends

Isotactic polypropylene/poly(cis‐butadiene) rubber (iPP/PcBR) blends were prepared by melt mixing. The influence of PcBR content on crystalline morphology and nonisothermal crystallization behaviors of iPP was investigated by polarized optical microscopy (POM), small angle light scattering (SALS), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The POM showed that an increase of PcBR ranging from 10 vol% to 40 vol% led to less perfection of spherulites, vaguer boundaries between spherulites, and smaller spherulite size, which was quantitatively validated by SALS. The presence of PcBR also remarkably affected the nonisothermal crystallization behaviors of iPP. An addition of PcBR caused higher crystallization peak temperature and a faster crystallization rate, meaning a heterogeneous nucleation effect of PcBR upon crystallization of iPP. For the same sample, the crystallization peak temperature moved to lower temperature and the crystallization rate increased as the cooling rate increased. The Ozawa and combined Avrami and Ozawa equations were used to describe the nonisothermal crystallization process of iPP and blends. The combined Avrami and Ozawa equation was more appropriate for the crystallization of the blends. Crystallization activation energy of iPP and blends was calculated by the Kissinger equation; the result showed that crystallization activation energy decreased as the content of PcBR increased from 30 vol% to 40 vol%.
