Novel Dual‐Site‐Binding Neuraminidase Inhibitor from Virtual Screening by Pharmacophore and Molecular Dynamics Methods

Neuraminidase is a significant anti‐influenza target that plays crucial role in virus replication cycle. The discovery of 150‐cavity in Group‐1 neuraminidase provides us a novel mentality of designing inhibitor which can bind with both conserved site and 150‐cavity. In order to discover novel dual‐site‐binding inhibitors, a 3D chemical‐feature‐based pharmacophore model was established to cover dual‐site in neuraminidase. The dual‐site‐binding model was consistent in predicting the binding conformation of Group‐1 neuraminidase inhibitor and applied for virtual screening of Specs database. Compound 4 (ZINC05790048) that aligned well to the model was selected after multiple filtrations for molecular dynamics simulations, indicating improved binding energy with neuraminidase. It can sever as the lead compound for a novel series of inhibitors.     

Generating monoenergetic proton beam by using circularly polarlzed laser

The interaction of ultrashort intense circularly polarized laser with ultra thin overdense foil is studied by particle-in-cell simulation and analytic model.It is found that with the balance between pondermotive force and electrostatic force,highly quasi-monoenergetic proton beam can be generated by Phase Stable Acceleration(PSA)process.As in conventional accelerators,ion will be accelerated and bunched up in the longitudinal direction at the same time.     

HF激光脉冲与水柱表面相互作用产生电信号(英文)

研究了脉冲HF激光与水柱表面相互作用下电信号的产生过程。电信号显示了与激光能量线性相关的峰值间有时间间隔的两峰结构,且第二个尖峰在水柱底部的蒸汽腔塌缩后出现。实验还显示电信号的幅值和激光脉冲照射过程中是否存在膨胀和挤压的薄水层密切相关。如果在电池上边缘和石英平板(石英板紧邻电池,并与水柱上表面相接)之间存在一薄水层,电信号强度会增加10倍。     

Scheme for implementing quantum dense coding with W-class state in cavity QED

An experimentally feasible protocol for realizing dense coding by using a class of W-state in cavity quantum electrodynamics （QED） is proposed in this paper. The prominent advantage of our scheme is that the successful probability of the dense coding with a W-class state can reach 1. In addition, the scheme can be implemented by the present cavity QED techniques.     

Efficient scheme of quantum SWAP gate and multi-atom cluster state via cavity QED

In this paper, we propose a physical scheme to realize quantum SWAP gate by using a large-detuned single-mode cavity field and two identical Rydberg atoms. It is shown that the scheme can also be used to create multi-atom cluster state. During the interaction between atom and cavity, the cavity is only virtually excited and thus the scheme is insensitive to the cavity field states and cavity decay. With the help of our scheme it is very simple to prepare the N-atom cluster state with perfect fidelity and probability. The practical feasibility of this method is also discussed.     

Short Tm3+-doped fiber lasers with watt-level output near 2 μm

High-power operation of diode-pumped fiber lasers at wavelength near 2μm are demonstrated with short length of heavily Tm3 -doped silica glass fibers. With 7-cm long fiber, a laser at near 2 μm is obtained with the threshold of 135 mW, maximum output power of 1.09 W, and slope efficiency of 9.6% with respect to the launched power from a laser diode at 790 nm. The output stability of this fiber laser is within 5%.The dependence of the performance of fiber lasers on the operation temperature and cavity configuration parameters is also investigated.     

Study on hydrogen sulfide plasma passivation of 790-nm laser diode cavity surface

In order to improve the optical properties of the Ⅲ-Ⅴ laser diodes(LDs) by means of H2S plasma passivation technology,H2S plasma passivation treatment is performed on the GaAs(110) surface.The optimum passivation conditions obtained are 60-W radio frequency(RF)power and 20-min duration.So the laser cavity surfaces axe treated under the optimum passivation conditions.Consequently,compared with unpassivated lasers with only AR/HR-coatings,the catastrophic optical damage (COD) threshold value of the passivated lasers by H2S plasma treatment is increased by 33%,which is almost the same as that of (NH4)2Sx treatment.And the life-test experiment has demonstrated that this passivation method is more stable than(NH4)2Sx solution wet-passivated treatment.     

LOM and HOM damping study in a superconducting deflecting cavity for ALS at LBNL

Superconducting deflecting cavities can be used in synchrotron light source to generate subpicosecond X-ray pulses while the impedance of the lower order modes (LOM) and higher order modes (HOM) in the cavity should be kept below an accepted level to avoid beam instability. These modes can be damped by adding waveguide on beam pipe. Detailed simulation of Q in CST Microwave Studio is introduced and experiment results on an aluminum model cavity with damping waveguide are reported to make a comparison.
