Controlled remote implementation of partially unknown quantum operation

A protocol for controlled remote implementation of a partially unknown operation on an arbitrary quantum state is proposed. In this protocol, a task can be performed using a GHZ state shared among three distant parties: Alice, Bob and the controller Charlie. This protocol is also generalized to the multi-party control system based on sharing an N-qubit GHZ state.

Light intensity distribution of a new type of contact laser scalpel

The emergent light distribution of a new type of contact laser scalpel is measured in three different states using a light sensor. The relationship between the angle and the light intensity is analyzed. The results show that the strongest light is emitted from two sides and the front of the scalpel. The light from the front mainly plays a role of cutting. The light from two sides contributes to stanch the wound so as to remain a clear visual field during the surgery. It also helps to increase the cutting efficiency.     

Asymptotic behaviour of multiperiodic functions scaled by Pisot numbers

Let β > 1 be a Pisot number andg be a positive Hölder continuous function with period one and g(0) = 1. The multiperiodic functionG(ξ)=Π _n=0 ^∞ g(ξ/βⁿ) is studied and the asymptotic behaviour ofI _G(T) = ∫ ₀ ^T G(ξ)dξ investigated. We prove that the limit of logI(T)/ logT exists asT tends to infinity. We also provide a method to calculate this limit for the caseg(ξ) = cos² 2πξ, corresponding to the Fourier transform of the Bernoulli convolution associated to the golden number (or some of its generalizations).     

Theoretical Investigation of Transparent (3–5 μm) and High Reflective (1.3 μm) Filter by Sol-Gel Process

When designing a cut-off interference filter, extra layers are needed to add on each side of periodic symmetrical multilayer to match the incident medium and the substrate. In this paper, we use sol-gel film with adjustable refractive index as the match layer. The influence of the refractive index and thickness of the match layer on the film system is discussed in detail. As an example, a special filter which is transparent (>80%) at the wavelength 3–5 m and high reflective (>90%) at the wavelength 1.3 m is designed. Finally a series of optimized film parameters are presented. The whole design process is a good reference to the other multilayer special filter made by sol-gel process.     

Resonance Rayleigh scattering spectral characteristics of interaction of nucleic acids with some cationic surfactants and their analytical applications

In near neutral medium, the resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) intensities of an alone cationic surfactant and nucleic acid are very weak. However, when they combine with each other to form a complex, the RRS intensity of the solution is enhanced greatly. In this paper the reactions of five cationic surfactants with nucleic acids have been studied. The results show that the reaction conditions and RRS spectral characteristics of these reactions are similar, but their sensitivities are obviously different. Among them, the sensitivity of cetyldimethyl benzylammonium chloride (CDBAC) with an aryl and large molecular weight is the highest, while that of cetyl-trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) without aryl and with small molecular weight is the lowest. The detection limits for ctDNA and yRNA of the former are 6.6 and 29.4 ng · mL-1, while that of the latter are 13.3 and 53.6 ng · mL-1. The method has better selectivity and can be applied to the determination of trace amounts of nucleic acids. Furthermore, i     

Large-scale synthesis of sodium and potassium titanate nanobelts

A low-temperature solution-based synthetic method was developed for the large-scale synthesis of one-dimensional nanostructures of alkali titanates. Two kinds of highly pure ribbonlike titanates were synthesized successfully in gram quantities without introducing any templates or catalysts. The structure and composition of the titanates were characterized by XRD, HRTEM, and EDX. The chemical and physical properties were preliminarily characterized, and some distinctive properties were observed.

How electron flow controls the thermochemistry of the addition of olefins to nickel dithiolenes: predictions by density functional theory

The reaction of a nickel dithiolene complex (1) and ethylene is a two-step process, in which the trans-product (2) forms first in the direct addition of the olefin to 1, while the more thermodynamically stable cis-product (3) involves isomerization of 2. The introduction of electron-withdrawing groups (cyano or trifluoromethyl) not only significantly lowers the activation energy (TS1) for the formation of trans-product, but it also strongly stabilizes the products (2, 3) such that they are favored by the free energy. However, these substituents leave the barrier for the conformational transformation step (TS2) nearly unchanged. On reduction, the previously favored adduct is now strongly disfavored.
