基于正交试验的细菌觅食算法的全局最优化

细菌觅食算法在求解全局最优化问题时的性能大部分依赖于参数的设置,各参数的值不同,则细菌觅食算法的收敛速度和得到的最优解也不同。本文主要介绍了用正交试验的方法设置细菌觅食算法的参数来求解全局最优化的问题,通过正交试验方法来检测多组参数对细菌觅食算法效率的影响,用经典的测试函数数对这种组合方案进行检测对比,通过对实验结果数据分析可得出参数的最佳组合方案。最终实验结果表明用正交试验法设置的细菌觅食算法的参数组合方案可以提高算法的效率和收敛速度,使算法能够更快更好的得到测试函数的近似最优解。     

LD泵浦被动调Q皮秒Nd∶YVO4微片激光器

报道了一种新型调Q微片激光器。首次提出了斜泵浦方案,实验中分别采用LD端面垂直泵浦和斜泵浦两种方式,结构简单紧凑。微片采用Nd∶YVO4作为工作物质,半导体可饱和吸收镜(SESAM)为调Q元件。在两种泵浦方式下,都获得了重复频率范围在千赫兹到兆赫兹的皮秒激光脉冲输出。以光纤耦合输出的808 nm LD作为泵浦源,在垂直泵浦的情况下,在420 mW 抽运功率下,获得6.40 mW的1064 nm激光输出,脉冲宽度57.8 ps,对应单脉冲能量6 nJ,x、y方向的光束质量因子分别为1.18、1.17。在斜泵浦的情况下,在550 mW抽运功率下,获得2.25 mW的1064 nm激光输出,脉冲宽度64.3 ps,对应单脉冲能量17 nJ,x、y方向的光束质量因子分别为1.29、1.32。     

基于不完备CSI的OFDMA公平资源分配算法

针对在信道状态信息不完备时,很难兼顾系统容量和公平性这一问题,通过引入公平松弛因子,提出一种公平性可调的遍历容量最大化资源分配算法。为了降低计算复杂度,在利用对偶优化方法求解拉格朗日算子过程中,提出同层循环迭代的搜索方式以代替传统的内外层循环迭代方式。通过仿真和分析表明,该算法在满足公平性的同时实现了遍历容量最大化,且计算复杂度明显降低。     

不同行程下水蒸汽太赫兹传输特性

太赫兹波具有独特的性质和应用,却存在大气衰减等物理上的限制.由于太赫兹波在大气传输中主要衰减来自水蒸汽,文中采用太赫兹时域光谱技术,通过构建不同行程的太赫兹时域光谱系统(0.5m、1m、2m、3 m),在0.1~2.0 THz 频率范围内,分别对不同湿度的空气进行太赫兹时域光谱测量,获得了25 个水吸收峰和10 个太赫兹窗口.结果表明:随着传输行程或湿度的增加,吸收谱带被展宽、太赫兹窗口被压缩,为超宽谱太赫兹波的潜在应用提供依据.     

高Q值光学微球腔的温度系数研究

光学微球谐振腔由于其具有超高的Q值及极小的模式体积等优点,在高灵敏度传感和光通信等方面得到了广泛的研究。测试了未封装和封装后微球腔谐振波长随温度的变化,实验结果表明随温度增大,谐振波长线性红移,且线性度高。二者温度系数不同,未封装时为25.6 pm/℃,封装后为4.4 pm/℃,主要原因为紫外胶的负热光系数所致。理论分析了紫外胶的热光效应,通过控制紫外胶厚度可以改变光在紫外胶中的比例,从而调节温度系数。当光在紫外胶中比例为0.1135时,温度系数变为0,可以抑制温度漂移,实现了温度补偿;该比例继续增大,温度灵敏度提高。低温漂、高灵敏度、微型化拓宽了回音壁模式(WGM)传感器的应用潜力。     

Pesticide‐conjugated polyacrylate nanoparticles: novel opportunities for improving the photostability of emamectin benzoate

Emamectin benzoate, a macrocyclic lactone, can be used in low quantities to control arthropod pests, effectively. However, its poor photostability prevents its further use. To delay its photodegradation, novel acrylate‐type polymeric nanoparticles were synthesized and tested as materials for improving pesticide photostability. N‐acylated emamectin benzoate was synthesized via bonding emamectin benzoate to acrylamide. The resulting pesticide, containing the double bond linkage –C=C–N–, was copolymerized with butyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate by the emulsion polymerization method. The refined polymers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectroscopy, and result illustrated the pesticide was conjugated to the polymers. Atomic force microscope and dynamic light scattering analyses were also used for determining the average particle diameters of pesticide–polymer conjugates. Photostability tests showed that the nanoparticles obtained exhibited greatly improved photostability. Additionally, the laboratory toxicity tests demonstrated that the insecticidal effects of the novel emamectin benzoate formulation were better than those of the control pesticide formulation (emamectin benzoate EC).

Studies on Polysiloxane-based Alicyclic Episulfide Resin

The polysiloxane-based alicyclic episulfide resin (PSCER) was synthesized through substitution of oxygen atoms in 1,3-bis[2-(3{7-oxabicyclo[4,1,0]hepyl})ethyl]-tetramethyldisiloxane with sulfur atoms using potassium thiocyanate (KSCN) as the reagent. The product was purified by column chromatography, and the by-products were isolated. It was found by ¹H-NMR and ¹³C-NMR that the by-products were cycloolefins formed by desulfurization of the episulfide groups. PSCER was unstable; desulfurization took place easily, especially at high temperatures. The PSCER resin could not be cured with methylhexahydrophthalic anhydride (MeHPPA). When m-phenylenediamine or isophorondiamine was used as curing agent, PSCER showed a higher reactivity compared with the parent epoxide. However, the reactivity of the alicyclic episulfide was much lower than the polysiloxane based aliphatic episulfide for the steric hindrance of the six member ring. Desulfurization took place upon curing of the alicyclic episulfide resin, therefore the cured resin showed poor mechanical properties. Thermal stability of cured PSCER resin was also poor on account of low bonding energy of C-S and crosslinking density.     

An efficient electrochemical disinfection of E. coli and S. aureus in drinking water using ferrocene–PAMAM–multiwalled carbon nanotubes–chitosan nanocomposite modified pyrolytic graphite electrode

This work reported an efficient electrochemical treatment for drinking water disinfection using a pyrolytic graphite electrode modified with ferrocenyl tethered poly(amidoamine) dendrimers–multiwalled carbon nanotubes–chitosan nanocomposite. The influence parameters of electrochemical disinfection of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, such as applied potential and sterilization time, were investigated. Further investigation indicated that almost all (99.99 %) of the initial bacteria were killed after applying a low potential of 0.4 V for 10 min. During the electrochemical disinfection process, the oxidized form of ferrocene was formed on electrode, which played a key role in the disinfection towards E. coli and S. aureus. Hence, the proposed method may provide potential application for the disinfection of drinking water.

Electrodeposition of PdAu Alloy Nanoparticles on Ionic Liquid Functionalized Graphene Film for the Voltammetric Determination of Oxalic Acid

An ionic liquid functionalized graphene film was prepared and PdAu nanoparticles (NPs) were electrodeposited on it. The PdAu NPs were characterized by various methods and they showed the features of alloys. In 0.2 M H₂SO₄ solution, oxalic acid (OA) exhibited a sensitive anodic peak at the resulting electrode at about 1.1 V (vs. SCE), and the peak current was linear to OA concentration in the range of 5–100 µM with a sensitivity of 45.5 µA/mM. The detection limit was 2.7 µM (S/N=3). The electrode was successfully applied to the determination of OA in real sample.
