Experimental study on correlation between sound velocity and solute molecular weight in polyethylene glycol solution

In this study,ultrasound grating was used to measure the sound velocity in solutions of ethylene glycol and polyethylene glycol with molecular weights of 200,600,2000,and 10000.We found Parthasarathy empirical rule,that is,sound velocity is higher in the solution of larger molecules,is invalid in the case of polyethylene glycol solution. We tried to provide a tentative explanation using the Flory-Krigbaum's chained block cloud model.

The constructive technique and its application in solving a nonlinear reaction diffusion equation

A mathematical technique based on the consideration of a nonlinear partial differential equation together with an additional condition in the form of an ordinary differential equation is employed to study a nonlinear reaction diffusion equation which describes a real process in physics and in chemistry. Several exact solutions for the equation are acquired under certain circumstances.     

A cell functional minimization scheme for parabolic problem

We are interested in a robust and accurate finite volume scheme for 2-D parabolic problems derived from the cell functional minimization approach. The scheme has a local stencil, is locally conservative, treats discontinuity rigorously and leads to a symmetric positive definite linear system. Since the scheme has both cell centered unknowns and cell edge unknowns, the computational cost is an issue and a parallel algorithm is then suggested based on nonoverlapping domain decomposition approach. The interface condition is of the Dirichlet–Robin type and has a parameter λ. By choosing this parameter properly, the convergence of the iteration process could be sped up. Numerical results for linear and nonlinear problems demonstrate the good performance of the cell functional minimization scheme and its parallel version on distorted meshes.

Characteristics of Si-doped Sb2Te3 thin films for phase-change random access memory

The characteristics of Si-doped Sb₂Te₃ thin films were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), four-point probe technique, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). It is found that the as-deposited Sb₂Te₃ film in our study is partly crystallized. Silicon doping increases the crystallization temperature and resistivity of Sb₂Te₃ film significantly. XRD and HRTEM analyses indicated that some of the doped Si atoms substitute for Sb or Te in the lattice, while others exists at the grain boundaries in the form of amorphous phase, which may be responsible for grain size reduction and high crystalline resistivity of Si-doped specimens. Compared with the conventional Ge₂Sb₂Te₅ film, Si-doped Sb₂Te₃ films exhibit lower melting temperature and higher crystalline resistivity, which is beneficial to RESET current reduction of phase-change random access memory (PRAM). These results show the feasibility of Si-doped Sb₂Te₃ films in PRAM application.     

Speech dereverberation method based on spectral subtraction and spectral line enhancement

Speech signals recorded with a distant microphone usually are interfered by the spatial reverberation in the room, which severely degrades the clarity and intelligibility of speech. A speech dereverberation method based on spectral subtraction and spectral line enhancement is proposed in this paper. Following the generalized statistical reverberation model, the power spectrum of late reverberation is estimated and removed from the reverberation speech by the spectral subtraction method. Then, according to the human auditory model, a spectral line enhancement technique based on adaptive post-filtering is adopted to further eliminate the reverberant components between adjacent speech formants. The proposed method can effectively suppress the spatial reverberation and improve the auditory perception of speech. The subjective and objective evaluation results reveal that the perceptual quality of speech is greatly improved by the proposed method.     

Electrical control of antiferromagnetic metal up to 15 nm

Manipulation of antiferromagnetic (AFM) spins by electrical means is on great demand to develop the AFM spintronics with low power consumption. Here we report a reversible electrical control of antiferromagnetic moments of FeMn up to 15 nm, using an ionic liquid to exert a substantial electric-field effect. The manipulation is demonstrated by the modulation of exchange spring in [Co/Pt]/FeMn system, where AFM moments in FeMn pin the magnetization rotation of Co/Pt. By carrier injection or extraction, the magnetic anisotropy of the top layer in FeMn is modulated to influence the whole exchange spring and then passes its influence to the [Co/Pt]/FeMn interface, through a distance up to the length of exchange spring that fully screens electric field. Comparing FeMn to IrMn, despite the opposite dependence of exchange bias on gate voltages, the same correlation between carrier density and exchange spring stiffness is demonstrated. Besides the fundamental significance of modulating the spin structures in metallic AFM via all-electrical fashion, the present finding would advance the development of low-power-consumption AFM spintronics.
