Monte-Carlo simulation of a compact gamma-ray detector using wavelength-shifting fibers coupled to a YAP scintillation crystal

The production and transportation of fluorescent light produced in wavelength-shifting fibers (WSFs) coupled to YAP scintillation crystal is simulated using the GEANT4 codes.An advantage of the wavelength-shifting fiber readout technique over a direct readout with a position-sensitive photo-sensor is the reduced requirement for position sensitive photomultiplier tube photocathode area.With this gamma-ray detector,the gamma camera is small and flexible and has larger effective field of view and low cost.Simulation results show that a) a mean 12 of photons per 59.5 keV gamma ray interaction is produced in the WSF located nearest to the incident gamma ray,and a spatial resolution of 3.6 mm FWHM is obtained,b)a mean 27 of photons per 140 keV gamma ray interaction is produced and a spatial resolution of 3.1 mm FWHM is obtained.Results demonstrate the feasibility of this concept of a compact gamma-ray detector based on wavelength-shifting fibers readout.However,since the very low photoelectron levels,it is very important to use a photon counting device with good single photo-electron response to readout the WSFs.     

父代种群参与竞争遗传算法几乎必然收敛

熟知,标准遗传算法如不采用“杰出者记录策略”则必不收敛。本文发现：允许父代种群参与竞争是标准遗传算法几乎必然收敛的条件。特别地,我们运用鞅收敛定理证明：允许父代种群参与竞争型遗传算法能以概率1确保在限步内达到全局最优解,且收敛与种群规模无关。所获结果对该类遗传算法的应用奠定了可靠基础。     

DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF DELAYED DAMPER SYSTEM IN ENGINEERING STRUCTURES

The delayed damper (DD) is a new active vibration absorption technique that uses time-delayed partial state feedback to generate ideal resonance on a passive vibration absorber. It has many attractive features such as real-time adjustability, ease of implementation, and total suppression of vibration for tonal frequency disturbances. In this paper, a major advantage of engineering structures analysis is the reduction of characteristic roots from infinite to finite numbers and the consequent simplicity in the dynamic analysis of the controller. The dynamic model principle is employed to design controllers for the structure. The system is examined by simulation. It is shown that engineering structures control application for DD yields better vibration suppression considering the sampled control structure in implementations.

Characteristics of Sn-Doped Ge2Sb2Te5 Films Used for Phase-Change Memory

Sn-doped Ge2Sb2Te5 thin films deposited on Si（100）/SiO2 substrates by rf magnetron sputtering are investigated by a differential scanning calorimeter, x-ray diffraction and sheet resistance measurement. The crystallization temperatures of the 3.58 at.%, 6.92 at.% and 10.04 at.% Sn-doped Ge2Sb2Te5 thin films have decreases of 5.3, 6.1 and 0.9℃, respectively, which is beneficial to reduce the switching current for the amorphous-to-crystalline phase transition. Due to Sn-doping, the sheet resistance of crystalline Ge2Sb2Te5 thin films increases about 2-10 times, which may be useful to reduce the switching current for the amorphous-to-crystalline phase change. In addition, an obvious decreasing dispersibility for the sheet resistance of Sn-doped Ge2Sb2Te5 thin films in the crystalline state has been observed, which can play an important role in minimizing resistance difference for the phase-change memory cell element arrays.

A new stacking method via variation ofsubstrate temperature in rfmagnetron sputter is used to fabricate polycrystalline/polycrystalline Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 thin films with higher dielectric constant, higher breakdown strength and lower leakage current densities than those prepared by a conventionM deposition method. The improved figure of merit G （ε0εrEb） of the Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 thin films implies that they are a feasible insulation layer for thin film electroluminescent devices.
