Ultrasound imaging and evaluation of lesion induced by High Intensity Focused Ultrasound

The present study was to investigate the differential imaging method for detecting HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound)-induced lesions and the estimation of variation of attenuation for lesion evaluation with log spectral difference algorithm. Experiment results of bovine muscle and liver in vitro were acquired. Several algorithms for lesion detection - Absolute Difference (AD), Sum Absolute Differences (SAD) and Sum Squared Differences (SSD) - were analyzed with several window sizes and threshold values. Then three attenuation parameters were compared to evaluate the degree of tissue damage. It was found that variation of the mean attenuation △α was an effective parameter to evaluate lesions.     

Effects of Temperature and Electric Field on the Coherence Time of a RbCl Parabolic Quantum Dot Qubit

We study the effects of the temperature and electric field on the coherence time of a RbCl parabolic quantum dot (PQD) qubit by using the variational method of Pekar type, the Fermi Golden Rule and the quantum statistics theory (VMPTFGRQST). The ground and the first excited states’ (GFES) eigenenergies and the eigenfunctions of an electron in the RbCl PQD with an applied electric field are derived. A single qubit can be realized in this two-level quantum system. It turns out that the coherence time is a decreasing function of the temperature and the electric field, whereas it is an increasing one of the effective confinement length (ECL). By changing the electric field, the temperature and the ECL one can adjust the coherence time. Our research results may be useful for the design and implementation of solid-state quantum computation.     

一种多频局域共振型声子晶体板的低频带隙与减振特性

设计了一种多频局域共振型声子晶体板结构, 该结构由一薄板上附加周期性排列的多个双悬臂梁式子结构而构成. 由于多个双悬臂梁式子结构的低频振动与薄板振动的相互耦合作用, 这种局域共振型板结构可产生多个低频弯曲波带隙(禁带); 带隙频率范围内的板弯曲波会被禁止传播, 利用带隙可以实现对薄板的多个目标频率处低频减振. 本文针对这种局域共振型板结构进行了简化, 并基于平面波展开法建立了其弯曲波带隙计算理论模型; 基于该模型, 结合具体算例进行了带隙特性理论分析. 设计、制备了一种存在两个低频弯曲波带隙的局域共振型板结构样件, 通过激光扫描测振仪测试证实该结构存在两个低频带隙, 在带隙频率范围的板弯曲振动被显著衰减.

Low Density Self-Assembled InAs/GaAs Quantum Dots Grown by Metal Organic Chemical Vapour Deposition

The self-assembled InAs quantum dots （QDs） on GaAs substrates with low density （5×10^8 cm^-2） are achieved using relatively higher growth temperature and low InAs coverage by low-pressure metal-organic chemical vapour deposition. The macro-PL spectra exhibit three emission peaks at 1361, 1280 and 1204nm, corresponding to the ground level （GS）, the first excited state （ES1） and the second excited state （ES2） of the QDs, respectively, which are obtained when the GaAs capping layer is grown using triethylgallium and tertiallybutylarsine. As a result of micro-PL, only a few peaks from individual dots have been observed. The exciton-biexciton behaviour was clearly observed at low temperature.     

Al掺杂对Mg_2Si介电性质影响的第一性原理研究

采用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理平面波超软赝势方法,计算了本征Mg_2Si和Al掺杂Mg_2Si的形成能、电子结构和介电函数.结果表明,Al掺杂Mg_2Si后,Al以替位杂质(Al替Mg位,即AlMg)或填隙杂质(Al位于晶胞间隙位,即Ali)的形式进入Mg_2Si晶格.费米能级进入导带,体系呈n型导电.掺杂后体系的介电函数的实部和虚部在低频时比未掺杂时均增大,主要是由于晶格中的施主杂质Al离子束缚着附近的过剩电子,在外加交变电场的作用下,束缚在Al离子周围的电子要克服一定的势垒不断地往复运动造成松弛极化和损耗.另外,掺杂体系相对于未掺杂体系,介电函数的虚部在0.5 eV附近出现了一个额外的介电峰,该峰主要是由电子从价带跃迁到Al杂质能级引起的.计算结果为Mg_2Si基光电子器件的设计和应用提供了理论依据.     

甲醛在金红石型TiO2(100)-(1×1)表面的光解离

We have investigated the photoinduced decomposition of formaldehyde (CH₂O) on a rutile TiO₂(100)-(1×1) surface at 355 nm using temperature-programmed desorption. Products, formate (HCOO^-), methyl radical (CH₃·), ethylene (C₂H₄), and methanol (CH₃OH) have been detected. The initial step in the decomposition of CH₂O on the rutile TiO₂(100)-(1×1) surface is the formation of a dioxymethylene intermediate in which the carbonyl O atom of CH₂O is bound to a Ti atom at the five-fold-coordinated Ti⁴⁺ (Ti_5c) site and its carbonyl C atom bound to a nearby bridge-bonded oxygen (O_b) atom, respectively. During 355 nm irradiation, the dioxymethylene intermediate can transfer an H atom to the O_b atom, thus forming HCOO^- directly, which is considered as the main reaction channel. In addition, the dioxymethylene intermediate can also transfer methylene to the O_b row and break the C-O bond, thus leaving the original carbonyl O atom at the Ti_5c site. After the transfer of methylene, several pathways to products are available. Thus, we have found that O_b atoms are intimately involved in the photoinduced decomposition of CH₂O on the rutile TiO₂(100)-(1×1) surface.     

P-thiocresol 吸附在银纳米粒子表面系统的表面增强拉曼散射和表面增强共振拉曼散射的增强研究

文中从实验和计算两方面报道了在514.5 nm激发光下P-Thiocresol吸附在银胶表面系统的表面增强拉曼散射(SERS).文中分析了它的增强机制,发现增强主要来自于电磁场增强.如果考虑距离为2nm的两个银纳米粒子的耦舍效应,两粒子之间的SERS的电磁场增强为7.16 × 107.静态化学增强亦起到部分增强作用,它的增强倍数为6.所以,总的SERS增强,包括静态化学增强和电磁场增强,是Gtotal=Gsc ×GEM=4.4×108.我们也理论地研究了此系统的表面增强共振拉曼散射(SERRS).当激发光与P-Thiocresol-Ag3系统的激发态共振时,电荷转移机制(化学增强)也将起到重要作用,最强的增强可迭106.我们使用电荷密度将激发光下p-Thlocresol和Ag团簇问的电荷转移结果可视化,这是电荷转移的直接理论证据.对于SERRS增强,包括电荷转移和电磁场增强机制,能达到1013.     

退火对含氮氟非晶碳膜结构及光学带隙的影响

采用射频等离子体增强化学气相沉积法,在不同条件下制备了含氮氟非晶碳膜,着重考察了退火温度对膜结构和光学带隙的影响. 研究发现：在350℃时,膜仍很稳定,当退火温度达到400℃时,其内各化学键的相对含量发生很大的改变. 膜的光学带隙随着退火温度的升高而增大,红外和拉曼光谱分析显示其原因是：退火使得膜内F的相对浓度降低,sp²相对含量升高,导致σ-σ^*带边态密度降低. 关键词： 含氮氟非晶碳膜 退火 光学带隙
