Design and analysis of a BLPC vocoder-based adaptive feedback cancellation with probe noise

The band-limited linear predictive coding (BLPC) vocoder-based adaptive feedback cancellation (AFC) removes the high-frequency bias, while the low frequency bias persists between the desired input signal and the loudspeaker signal in the estimate of the feedback path. In this paper, we present a BLPC vocoder-based adaptive feedback canceller with probe noise with an objective of reducing the low-frequency bias in digital hearing-aids. A step-wise mathematical analysis of the proposed feedback canceller is presented employing the recursive least square and normalized least mean square adaptive algorithms. It is observed that the optimal solution of the feedback path is unbiased for an unshaped probe noise, but is biased for a shaped probe signal; the bias term does not consist of correlation between the desired input and the loudspeaker output. The identifiability conditions are analysed and it is shown that a delay, greater than or equal to the length of the adaptive filter, must be introduced in the forward path to achieve an unbiased feedback path estimate. Algorithm analysis and computer simulations presented in this paper justify the reason for selecting the proposed design over the existing BLPC vocoder-based feedback cancellation algorithm.

Fluorescent Probes Based on AIEgen-Mediated Polyelectrolyte Assemblies for Manipulating Intramolecular Motion and Magnetic Relaxivity

Uniting photothermal therapy (PTT) with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) holds great potential in nanotheranostics. However, the extensively utilized hydrophobicity-driven assembling strategy not only restricts the intramolecular motion-induced PTT, but also blocks the interactions between MR agents and water. Herein, we report an aggregation-induced emission luminogen (AIEgen)-mediated polyelectrolyte nanoassemblies (APN) strategy, which bestows a unique “soft” inner microenvironment with good water permeability. Femtosecond transient spectra verify that APN well activates intramolecular motion from the twisted intramolecular charge transfer process. This de novo APN strategy uniting synergistically three factors (rotational motion, local motion, and hydration number) brings out high MR relaxivity. For the first time, APN strategy has successfully modulated both intramolecular motion and magnetic relaxivity, achieving fluorescence lifetime imaging of tumor spheroids and spatio-temporal MRI-guided high-efficient PTT.     

Coding Intrinsic Disorder into DNA Hybridization Probes Enables Discrimination of Single Nucleotide Variants over Wide and Tunable Temperature Ranges

DNA hybridization probes are commonly used tools to discriminate clinically important single nucleotide variants (SNVs) but often work at elevated temperatures with very narrow temperature intervals (ΔT). Herein, we investigated the thermodynamic basis of the narrow ΔT both in silico and experimentally. Our study revealed that the high entropy penalty of classic hybridization probe designs was the key attributor for the narrow ΔT. Guided by this finding, we further introduced an entropy-compensate probe (Sprobe) design by coding intrinsic disorder into a stem-loop hybridization probe. Sprobe expanded ΔT from less than 10 °C to over 30 °C. Moreover, both ΔT and the optimal reaction temperature can be fine-tuned by simply altering the length of the loop domain. Sprobe was clinically validated by analyzing EGFR L858R mutation in 36 pairs of clinical tumor tissue samples collected from lung cancer patients, which revealed 100 % clinical sensitivity and specificity. We anticipate that our study will serve as a general guide for designing thermal robust hybridization probes for clinical diagnostics.     

一种快速测量共聚焦X射线分析装置探测微元尺寸方法

共聚焦X射线荧光技术是一种无损的三维光谱分析技术,在材料,生物,矿物样品分析,考古,证物溯源等领域具有广泛应用。共聚焦X射线荧光谱仪的核心部件为两个多毛细管X光透镜。一个为多毛细管X光会聚透镜（PFXRL）,其存在一后焦点,作用是把X光管所发出的发散X射线会聚成几十微米大小的高增益焦斑。另一透镜为多毛细管X光平行束透镜（PPXRL）,其存在一几十微米大小前焦点,置于X射线能量探测器前端,其作用是接收特定区域的X射线荧光信号。在共聚焦Ｘ射线荧光谱仪中,PFXRL的后焦点与PPXRL的前焦点重合,所形成的区域称作探测微元。只有置于探测微元区域的样品能够被谱仪检测到,使样品与探测微元相对移动,逐点扫描,便能够对样品进行三维无损的X射线分析。探测微元的尺寸决定共聚焦X射线荧光谱仪的空间分辨率,因此精确测量谱仪的探测微元的尺寸是非常重要的。如图1所示,谱仪探测微元可以近似为椭球体,其尺寸可以用水平方向分辨率X, Y,和深度分辨率Z表示。目前,常采用金属细丝或金属薄膜通过刀口扫描的方法测量谱仪探测微元尺寸。为了精确的从三个维度测量探测微元尺寸,金属细丝直径要小于探测微元尺寸。金属细丝和探测微元都是数十微米级别的尺寸大小,很难把金属靠近探测微元。为了得到探测微元在不同X射线能量下尺寸变化曲线,要采用多种金属细丝测量。采用单个金属细丝依次测量比较耗费时间。采用金属薄膜可以很方便地测量探测微元的深度分辨率Z,但是当测量水平分辨率X, Y时,难以准确测量。为了解决以上谱仪探测微元测量中存在的问题,本文提出采用多种金属丝平行粘贴在硬纸片上作为样品用于快速测量探测微元尺寸。附有金属细丝的硬纸片靠近谱仪探测微元,可以将探测微元置于硬纸片所在平面。由于硬纸片与金属细丝在同一水平面,在谱仪摄像头的协助下,可以把金属细丝迅速的靠近探测微元。靠近探测微元后,在全自动三维样品台的协助下,金属细丝沿两个方向对探测微元分别进行一次二维扫描。通过对二维扫描数据的处理便可以获得探测微元尺寸随入射X射线能量变化曲线。采用此方法对实验室所搭建的共聚焦X射线荧光谱仪的探测微元进行了测量。     

Characterization of heat-assisted magnetic probe recording on CoNi/Pt multilayers

A method of heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) potentially suitable for probe-based storage systems is characterized. In this work, field emission current from a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) tip is used as the heating source. Pulse voltages of 2–7 V were applied to a CoNi/Pt multilayered film fabricated on either bare silicon or oxidized silicon substrates. Different types of Ir/Pt and W STM tips were used in the experiment. The results show that thermally recorded magnetic marks are formed with a nearly uniform mark size of 170 nm on the film fabricated on bare silicon substrate when the pulse voltage is above a threshold voltage. The mark size becomes 260 nm when they are written on the identical film fabricated on an oxidized silicon substrate. The threshold voltage depends on the material work function of the tip, with W having a threshold voltage about 1 V lower than Pt. A synthesized model, which contains the calculation of the emission current, the simulation of heat transfer during heating, and the study of magnetic domain formation, was introduced to explain experimental results. The simulation agrees well with the experiments.
