Theoretical study of the photophysical processes of a styryl-bodipy derivative eliciting an AND molecular logic gate response

We study, via density functional theory and time dependent DFT calculations, the photophysical processes of a styryl-bodipy derivative, which acts as a three metal-cation-receptor fluorophore in order to (a) gain information on the appropriate computational approach for successful prediction of molecular logic gate candidates, (b) rationalize the available experimental data and (c) understand how the given combination of three different receptors with the BODIPY fluorophore presents such interesting optoelectronic responses. The fluorophore ( 1 ), its monometallic complexes ( 1-Ca ²⁺ , 1-Zn ²⁺ , and 1-Hg ²⁺ ), and its trimetallic complex ( 2 ) are studied. The calculated λ_max values for absorption and emission are in excellent agreement with experimental data. It was found that the observed quenching of emission of 1 and of the monometallic complexes is attributed to the fact that their first excited state is a charge-transfer state whereas this does not happen for the complex 2 . It should be noted that for the correct ordering of the excited states, the inclusion of corrections to the excitation energies for nonequilibrium solvent effects is required; while in the case of 1-Ca ²⁺ , the additional explicit inclusion of the solvent is necessary for the quenching of the emission spectra.     

Quantum Information Processing in a Coupled Cavity Array

We consider a one-dimensional array of L identical coupled cavities, and each cavity is doped with a two-level qubit. Experimentally, it has been developed in several varieties by the newest technology. We find that the one-qubit quantum state can be perfectly transferred through the cavity array, and the entanglement between the first two qubits can also be transferred to the last two qubits. In addition, we successfully realized the entangling gate and swap gate in the coupled cavity array.     

Digital prototype of LLRF system for SSRF

This paper describes a field programming gate array (FPGA) based low level radio frequency (LLRF) prototype for the SSRF storage ring RF system. This prototype includes the local oscillator (LO), analog front end, digital front end, RF out, clock distributing, digital signal processing and communication functions. All feedback algorithms are performed in FPGA. The long term of the test prototype with high power shows that the variations of the RF amplitude and the phase in the accelerating cavity are less than 1% and 1° respectively, and the variation of the cavity resonance frequency is controlled within ±10 Hz.     

Note on Generalized Quantum Gates and Quantum Operations

Recently, Gudder proved that the set of all generalized quantum gates coincides the set of all contractions in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space (S. Gudder, Int. J. Theor. Phys. 47:268–279, 2008). In this note, we proved that the set of all generalized quantum gates is a proper subset of the set of all contractions on an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space ℋ. Meanwhile, we proved that the quantum operation deduced by an isometry is an extreme point of the set of all quantum operations on ℋ. This subject is supported by NSF of China (10571113).

Fluorescent Molecular Logic Gates and Pourbaix Sensors in Polyacrylamide Hydrogels

Polyacrylamide hydrogels formed by free radical polymerisation were formed by entrapping anthracene and 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide fluorescent logic gates based on photoinduced electron transfer (PET) and/or internal charge transfer (ICT). The non-covalent immobilisation of the molecules in the hydrogels resulted in semi-solid YES, NOT, and AND logic gates. Two molecular AND gates, examples of Pourbaix sensors, were tested in acidic aqueous methanol with ammonium persulfate, a strong oxidant, and displayed greater fluorescence quantum yields than previously reported. The logic hydrogels were exposed to aqueous solutions with chemical inputs, and the fluorescence output response was viewed under 365 nm UV light. All of the molecular logic gates diffuse out of the hydrogels to some extent when placed in solution, particularly those with secondary basic amines. The study exemplifies an effort of taking molecular logic gates from homogeneous solutions into the realm of solid-solution environments. We demonstrate the use of Pourbaix sensors as pE-pH indicators for monitoring oxidative and acidic conditions, notably for excess ammonium persulfate, a reagent used in the polymerisation of SDS-polyacrylamide gels.     

HIRFL数字化高频低电平控制系统研究

在HIRFL加速器系统中, 需要对射频加速电压的幅度和相位进行精确控制,以实现对重离子的精确俘获、 加速和引出。传统的幅度、相位稳定控制系统采用幅度和相位两个反馈闭合环路来分别稳定腔体电压的幅度和相位。 数字化高频低电平控制系统(LLRF) 基于可编程逻辑门阵列（FPGA）和数字信号处理（DSP）, 采用直接数字频率合成（DDS）与数字正交调制解调（I/Q）技术来实现对高频功率源的控制。 相位控制精度更高, 系统更加稳定。 目前控制系统在假负载上通过了长期稳定性的实验和高功率实验, 幅度偏差小于或等于±1％, 相位偏差小于或等于±0.5°。 In order to ensure that the beam quality is well enough, we need to precisely control the frequency, amplitude and phase of cavity electric field. Traditional control system consists of amplitude loop and phase loop. And these two loops control amplitude and phase stability respectively. The digital low level radio frequency (LLRF) system, which uses advanced digital control technology, needs only one feed back loop to control amplitude and phase stability. The phase control precision and stability of the system are higher than the traditional control system. The LLRF system is based on field programmable gate array (FPGA) and digital signal processing (DSP), and implemented by direct digital frequency synthesis (DDS) and digital orthogonal modulation and demodulation (I/Q) technology. The digital LLRF system has been tested in a long term stability and high power experiments. The amplitude deviation is lower than ±1%, and phase control accuracy is within ±1°. 
