Quantum Secure Direct Communication and Quantum Sealed-Bid Auction with EPR Pairs

I present a new protocol for three-party quantum secure direct communication （QSDC） with a set of ordered M Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen （EPR） pairs. In the scheme, by performing two unitary operations and Bell state measurements, it is shown that the three legitimate parties can exchange their respective secret message simultaneously. Then I modify it for an experimentally feasible and secure quantum sealed-bid auction （QSBD） protocol. Furthermore, I also analyze th~ecurity of the protocol, and the scheme is proven to be secure against the intercept-and-resend attack, the disturbancb attack and the entangled-and-measure attack.     

Three-party quantum secret sharing of secure direct communication based on x-type entangled states

Based on x-type entangled states and the two-step protocol [Deng F G, Long G L and Liu X S 2003 Phys. Rev. A 68 042317], a quantum secret sharing protocol of secure direct communication based on x-type entangled states ｜X00〉3214 is proposed. Using some interesting entanglement properties of this state, the agent entirety can directly obtain the secret message from the message sender only if they collaborate together. The security of the scheme is also discussed.     

Three-dimensional analytical solution for a transversely isotropic functionally graded piezoelectric circular plate subject to a uniform electric potential difference

This paper studies the problem of a functionally graded piezoelectric circular plate subjected to a uniform electric potential difference between the upper and lower surfaces. By assuming the generalized displacements in appropriate forms, five differential equations governing the generalized displacement functions are derived from the equilibrium equations. These displacement functions are then obtained in an explicit form, which still involve four undetermined integral constants, through a step-by-step integration which properly incorporates the boundary conditions at the upper and lower surfaces. The boundary conditions at the cylindrical surface are then used to determine the integral constants. Hence, three-dimensional analytical solutions for electrically loaded functionally graded piezoelectric circular plates with free or simply-supported edge are completely determined. These solutions can account for an arbitrary material variation along the thickness, and thus can be readily degenerated into those for a homogenous plate. A numerical example is finally given to show the validity of the analysis, and the effect of material inhomogeneity on the elastic and electric fields is discussed.

Electron energy-loss spectroscopy in the low-loss region as a characterization tool of electrode materials

Energy losses below 100 eV are by far less exploited than higher losses in electron energy-loss spectroscopy. Two new examples are given to illustrate the characterization possibilities offered by spectra in this energy range. Typical materials that could be used as electrodes in electrochemical cells were chosen as application cases. Through the use of calculations based on density functional theory, we first demonstrate that the first peak present at the lithium K edge in Li _x TiP₄ can give access to the precise localisation of inserted Li atoms in the f.c.c. structure. In particular, different tetrahedral sites could be differentiated according to their distance to the Ti site. Secondly, calculations of valence electron energy-loss spectra of perovskite materials indicate that a characteristic peak for regular perovskite (Pm m space group) exists in the 10–15 eV range. The high sensitivity of this peak to the distortion of the octahedron arrangements is also demonstrated.

α-SrMnO3电子结构的第一性原理研究

采用平面波赝势方法对钙钛矿型锰酸盐氧化合物α-SrMnO3的电子结构进行了第一性原理研究. 六方钙钛矿型结构α-SrMnO3化合物为磁性绝缘体, 磁基态对应于共面八面体及共顶点八面体间的磁性交换作用均为反铁磁性(AFM), 其禁带宽度为1.6 eV; 费米能级附近的Mn3d态与O2p态存在很强的杂化作用, 属于共价绝缘体, 这种强共价性使得Mn4+的自旋磁矩偏离理想值. 采用Noodleman的对称性破缺方法, 根据α-SrMnO3不同磁有序态的总能量拟合出α-SrMnO3中的自旋交换耦合常数. α-SrMnO3的局部微结构(Mn—O—Mn)决定了整个体系的特殊磁性交换作用. 共面及共顶点的八面体间均存在AFM交换作用, 并且共顶点八面体间的AFM作用比较强.

由NO分子从头计算结果和紫外光电子能谱确定NO的分子结构

对于NO分子轨道的能级次序现有两种不同的说法,不少人根据NO与O_2~+是等电子体,由O_2~+分子的能级次序确定NO分子组态。本文用NO和O_2~(+)从头计算结果以及NO的紫外光电子能谱相结合的方法说明NO的5σ轨道是弱成键轨道,5σ的轨道能稍高于1π轨道能,也就是说NO的能级次序是与N_2分子相同的;NO与O_2~+虽是等电子体,但是能级次序并不相同,因此由O_2~+的能级次序确定NO分子的电子组态是不妥的。     

ENTROPIC CONTRIBUTION TO THE INTERACTION PARAMETER xIN THE POLYMER／OLIGOMER SYSTEM： A LATTICE CLUSTER THEORY CONSIDERATION

Entropic contribution to the interaction parameter xeff in the model incompressible polymer/oligomer system is calculated by the lattice cluster theory (LCT). It is found that in the oligomer solvent, there exists a wide concentration range that the non-combinatorial “entropic interaction” term xeff φ1φ2 perceptibly counteracts the mean field combinary entropy ΔSMF. With the increase of the solvent size, both xeff and the ratio xefc φ1φ2/ΔSMF first reach their maximum and finally become trivially to zero. It is worth noting that no any demixing was found in the current calculation. This makes the controversial idea “entropically driven demixing” even elusive. However, we propose that further work on compressible polymer solution with structured monomer will witness the demixing owning to an increased configurational correlation.
