This system visualizes the dynamic distribution of ions in a charged polymer phase under an electric field on a real‐time basis using fluorescence images (see picture). Multiple polyelectrolyte diodes are integrated on a microchip to produce a variety of logic gates based on ionic circuits.

     

基于LPC2210和SSD1339的PM-OLED驱动控制电路

为了避免早期无源矩阵有机电致发光器件驱动控制电路的一些缺陷,如:"串扰"和"交叉"效应以及电路连接比较复杂,用两种方法实现了基于飞利浦公司生产的LPC2210控制芯片和晶门科技公司的SSD1339驱动芯片的驱动控制电路。首先介绍了有机电致发光器件的结构和发光原理以及芯片SSD1339和LPC2210的主要的特点;分析和比较了SSD1339的8080系列并行口和LPC2210外部存储控制单元的读写时序;分别利用LPC2210的通用输入输出单元和外部存储控制单元,成功的控制SSD1339驱动128RGB×128点阵有机电致发光屏。实验结果表明:两种方法不仅可以有效地克服早期驱动控制电路的缺陷,而且可以使有机电致发光屏显示出高质量的图片;用外部存储控制单元实现的驱动控制电路,可以实现约80 Hz的驱动帧频;而使用通用输入输出单元实现的驱动控制电路,可以单步跟踪数据的传输,因此它具有方便查错的优势。本次实验为在不同的集成环境下无源矩阵有机电致发光器件驱动控制电路的设计奠定基础。

Spectral reduction for control systems modeling passive integrated circuits

Linear control systems modeling passive integrated circuits are examined. A new algebraic method of spectral reduction equipped with efficient tools for preserving passivity is proposed and justified. For RC networks (circuits), this method is similar to and can be regarded as an extension of the well-known PACT method, which is based on congruence transforms. Up to now, such an extension seemed to be impossible, and different techniques were used for the reduction of RCL and RCLM networks. Some numerical results are presented.     

Rainbow trapping based on long-range plasmonic Bragg gratings at telecom frequencies

The group velocity of long-range surface plasmon polaritons (LRSPPs) in a wide frequency bandwidth at infrared frequencies is significantly reduced by dielectric gratings of graded thickness on both sides of a thin metal film. This structure can reduce the propagation loss of slow surface plasmons in "rainbow trapping" systems based on plasmonic Bragg gratings. Compared with dielectric gratings of graded thickness on a single side of a metal film, the proposed structure is able to guide slow light with a much longer propagation distance for the same group index factor. Finite- difference time-domain simulation results show that slow LRSPPs with the group velocity of c/14.5 and the propagation distance of 10.4 μm are achieved in dielectric gratings of uniform thickness on both sides of a thin metal film at 1.62 μm.     

Entanglement in Coupled Mesoscopic Circuits

A common two-mode squeezed state is one of the most important resources in quantum information processing of continuous variables. In this paper, a two-mode squeezed rotation-entangled state is obtained in coupled mesoscopic circuits. It is shown that instantaneously switching on the external sources may result in a two-mode squeezed state of the system, which actually arises from the coupling effect. The entanglement of the squeezed rotation-entangled state is studied. The degree of entanglement for coupled mesoscoipc circuit was calculated by using the technique of integration within an ordered product of operators. It is shown that the entanglement of the two-mode squeezed rotation-entangled state is different from that of the common squeezed state, for example, the degree of entanglement of the system, which is in the squeezed state, exist maximum value at a very low temperature.     

On the sharpness of two-sided bounds for the Perron Root and of the related eigenvalue inclusion sets

The paper considers the sharpness problem for certain two-sided bounds for the Perron root of an irreducible nonnegative matrix. The results obtained are applied to prove the sharpness of the related eigenvalue inclusion sets in classes of matrices with fixed diagonal entries, bounded above deleted absolute row sums, and a partly specified irreducible sparsity pattern.     

Comparison of characteristics of an x-ray preionized XeCl laser, pumped by water transmission line and low inductance capacitor bank

With a high uniformity of x-ray preionization, a long pulse duration and a high specific energy (9 J l^-1), an XeCl excimer laser output has been obtained by using a compact low inductance capacitor bank as the laser excitation circuit. The superior features of the low inductance capacitor bank (LICB) compared to the water transmission line (WTL) are attractive for repetitively pulsed XeCl excimer lasers.     

A new approach for modelling the damped Helmholtz oscillator:applications to plasma physics and electronic circuits

In this paper,a new approach is devoted to find novel analytical and approximate solutions to the damped quadratic nonlinear Helmholtz equation(HE)in terms of the Weiersrtrass elliptic function.The exact solution for undamped HE(integrable case)and approximate/semi-analytical solution to the damped HE(non-integrable case)are given for any arbitrary initial conditions.As a special case,the necessary and sufficient condition for the integrability of the damped HE using an elementary approach is reported.In general,a new ansatz is suggested to find a semi-analytical solution to the non-integrable case in the form of Weierstrass elliptic function.In addition,the relation between the Weierstrass and Jacobian elliptic functions solutions to the integrable case will be derived in details.Also,we will make a comparison between the semi-analytical solution and the approximate numerical solutions via using Runge-Kutta fourth-order method,finite difference method,and homotopy perturbation method for the first-two approximations.Furthermore,the maximum distance errors between the approximate/semi-analytical solution and the approximate numerical solutions will be estimated.As real applications,the obtained solutions will be devoted to describe the characteristics behavior of the oscillations in RLC series circuits and in various plasma models such as electronegative complex plasma model.
