Secure Direct Communication Using Ensembles with the Same Compressed Density Matrix

In this paper, a quantum secure direct communication protocol using ensembles with the same density matrix is proposed. The two communication parties can realize the message transmission using this method through a quantum channel, each bit of information can be transmitted using an ensemble and read out through global measurement.The eavesdropping behavior can be detected through the channel diagnoses.

STRUCTURES OF CIRCULANT INVERSE M-MATRICES

In this paper, we present a useful result on the structures of circulant inverse Mmatrices. It is shown that if the n × n nonnegative circulant matrix A = Circ[c0, c1,… , c（n- 1）] is not a positive matrix and not equal to c0I, then A is an inverse M-matrix if and only if there exists a positive integer k, which is a proper factor of n, such that cjk 〉 0 for j=0,1…, [n-k/k], the other ci are zero and Circ[co, ck,… , c（n-k）] is an inverse M-matrix. The result is then extended to the so-called generalized circulant inverse M-matrices.     

过模慢波结构频率反射特性及谐振腔的影响

利用有限元方法求解:S-参数矩阵,研究了过模慢波结构对圆波导TM01,TM02模的反射特性,分析了在慢波结构末端加入谐振腔后,由于两端口的不对称性而造成的对反射特性影响。结果表明,在TM01的π模频率附近,慢波结构和谐振腔组成的系统对无谐振腔一侧端口入射TM01模的反射增大,而对有谐振腔一侧端口入射TM01模的反射减小。根据计算结果,解释了普通多波切伦柯夫振荡器所用慢波结构周期数较多的原因,说明了在多波切伦柯夫振荡器中引入谐振腔后,不但可以减少所用慢波结构周期数,而且有利于提高微波输出效率。     

The Determination of Trace Elements by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry: Effect of the Composition of Standard Solution Matrices

Abstract

The effect of using solution matrices in calibration standards different from those employed for the extraction steps in the determination of Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn were tested. Cu and Zn are little affected by matrix effects but, if the extractant is ammonium acetate, the use of other matrices may result in too high Cd, Cr and Ni values.     

Field Study on Mobility and Persistence of Linuron and Monolinuron in Agricultural Soil

Abstract

A field site equipped with suction cup lysimeters was installed at Treviglio (BG) to assess the migration capacity of the herbicides linuron and monolinuron from topsoil to groundwater and to verify the appearance of their relevant transformation products in soil and water samples. A constant hydraulic head was applied in order to develop water saturation conditions in the upper layers. KCl was used as a tracer to evaluate water infiltration velocity through the vertical soil profile. The constant hydraulic head accelerated infiltration rates, while herbicide concentrations reached maximum contamination because soil adsorption capacity was underdeveloped. The results indicated two main processes of pesticide transport: firstly transport due mainly to water infiltration through macropores; secondly the transport driven by matrix flow. Linuron was found to be the most mobile herbicide, while chloroanilines were found to be the major transformation products of the herbicides considered.     

Flexible active matrix addressed displays manufactured by printing and coating techniques

A flexible electrochromic active matrix addressed display, including 8 × 8 pixels, is demonstrated by using solution processing based on standard printing and coating manufacturing techniques. Each organic electrochromic display (OECD) pixel and its corresponding organic electrochemical transistor (OECT) are located on different sides of the flexible PET substrate. Electronic vias generated through the plastic substrate connects each OECD pixel with one addressing OECT. When comparing this display with actively addressed OECDs with all its components located on the same side, the present approach based on this electronic via substrate provides an enhanced pixel resolution and a relatively more simplified manufacturing process. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Determination of Cadmium in Plant Tissues by Electrothermal Atomisation Atomic Absorption Spectrometry with Matrix/Analyte Modification and Smith-Hieftje Background Correction

Abstract

Pressure decomposition in a microwave oven provides a rapid means of sample preparation for plant tissue analyses. The use of delayed atomisation cuvettes, Smith-Hieftje background correction and matrix/analyte modification enables accurate determinations of cadmium concentrations in plant materials to be made. However, care should be taken to restrict the concentrations of modifier used, as too high a concentration may lead to problems with both tube life and over-correction by the Smith-Hieftje background correction system.     

The electronic origin of unusually large nJFN coupling constants in some fluoroximes

SOPPA(CCSD) calculations show that the FC term is the most important contribution to the through‐space transmission of J_FN coupling constants for the fluoroximes studied in this work. Because of the well‐known behavior of FC term, a new rationalization for the experimental ^TSJ_FN SSCC is presented. It is mainly based on the overlap matrix (S_ij) between fluorine and nitrogen lone pairs obtained from NBO analyses. An expression is proposed to take into account the influence of the electronic density (D_ij) between coupled nuclei as well as the s% character at the site of the coupling nuclei of bonds and non‐bonding electron pairs involved in D_ij. In using this approach, a linear correlation between ^TSJ_FN versus D_ij is obtained. The most important aspect of this rationalization is related to the facility for understanding the behavior of some unusual experimental coupling constants. It is shown that, at least in this case, the electronic origin of the so‐called through‐space coupling is transmitted through to the overlap of orbitals on the coupled atoms, suggesting that, at least for these compounds, instead of through‐space coupling, it should better be dubbed as ‘through overlapping orbital coupling’.
