Quantitative T(1)(ρ) imaging using phase cycling for B0 and B1 field inhomogeneity compensation

T_1ρ imaging is useful in a number of clinical applications. T_1ρ preparation methods, however, are sensitive to non-uniformities of the B₀ magnetic field and the B₁ RF field. These common system imperfections can result in image artifacts and quantification errors in T_1ρ imaging. We report on a phase-cycling method which can eliminate B₁ RF inhomogeneity effects in T_1ρ imaging. This method does not only correct for image artifacts but also for T_2ρ contamination caused by B₁ RF inhomogeneity. The presence of B₀ magnetic field inhomogeneity can compromise the effectiveness of this method for B₁ RF inhomogeneity correction. We demonstrate that, by combining the spin-locking scheme reported by Dixon et al. (Myocardial suppression in vivo by spin locking with composite pulses. Magn Reson Med 1996; 36:90-94) with phase cycling, we can simultaneously correct B₀ magnetic field inhomogeneity effects and B₁ RF inhomogeneity effects in T_1ρ imaging. Phantom and in vivo data sets are used to demonstrate the proposed methods and to compare them with other existing T_1ρ preparation methods.     

A study on structural formation and optical property of wide band-gap Be0.2Zn0.8O layers grown by RF magnetron co-sputtering system

Wide band-gap BeZnO layers were grown on Al₂O₃ (0 0 0 1) substrate using radio-frequency magnetron co-sputtering. The rate of Be_xZn_1−xO crystallized as a hexagonal structure was x=0.2. From the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurement, the O–Zn bonds relating the crystal structure and the Be–O bonds related to the deviation of the stoichiometry in the BeZnO layer were caught at 530.4 and 531.7 eV in the O 1s spectrum, respectively. Thus, the observance on the Be 1s peak of 113.2 eV associated with the bonding Be–O indicates that the sputtered Be atoms are substituted for the host-lattice site in ZnO. This Be–O bonding shows a relatively low intense and broadening spectrum caused by large fluctuation of Be content in the BeZnO layer. From the photoluminescence and transmittance measurement, the free exciton and the neutral donor-bound exciton (D⁰, X) emissions were observed at 3.7692 and 3.7313 eV, respectively, and an average transmittance rate over 95% was achieved in a wide ultraviolet (UV)–visible region. Also, the binding energy for the (D⁰, X) emission was extracted to be 37.9 meV. Through the wide band-gap material BeZnO, we may open some possibilities for fabricating a ZnO-based UV light-emitting diode to be utilized as a barrier layer comprised of the ZnO/BeZnO quantum well structure and/or an UV light emitting material itself.

Preliminary design and multipacting simulation of a SRF quarter wave electron gun at Peking University

Peking University is designing a new SRF gun that is composed of a quarter wave resonator (QWR) and an elliptical cavity. Compared to the elliptical cavity, the QWR is sufficiently compact at the same frequency and its electric field is quasi-DC. The RF parameters are determined by optimization of QWR cavity structure and the possible multipacting locations are analyzed by 2D MP simulation. The simulation results show that multipacting is not a critical issue for our optimized cavity structure.

Novel model of FM-noise conversion in a UMZI using RF external phase modulation of lasers: Theoretical and experimental results

In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a new and original model for theoretical calculation and experimental measurement of the noise power spectral density (NPSD) in phase-modulated optical links. The phase modulation is operated in the RF frequency range by an external phase modulator. The NPSD is derived for the first time in interferometric systems, by considering all effects such as the 1/f FM noise of the laser and white noise applied to light from a 1550 nm DFB laser, with phase modulation. The results show for the first time the influence of the phase modulation index, modulation frequency and interferometric delay in the phase-to-intensity noise conversion. The experimental and simulation results of conversion of FM-noise to intensity noise in an optical link by considering the external RF phase modulation are shown with good agreement.

无氧铜的准等熵压缩性

 利用递变冲击阻抗材料叠合而成的组合飞片，在二级轻气炮上对无氧铜进行了准等熵压缩性测量，加载时间约达1 μs。用激光速度干涉仪连续记录了不同厚度处无氧铜样品自由面速度随时间的变化过程，并通过拉格朗日波分析技术计算得到40 GPa下的准等熵的应力-应变曲线。结果表明：在低应力区，无氧铜的准等熵压缩线位于冲击绝热线之上；到32 GPa以上，准等熵压缩线才回落到冲击绝热线之下。这个现象与Barker、Chhabildas等对铝与钨的实测现象是一致的，它表明：在低应力区，材料的冲击强化效应与加载速率密切相关。
