在群速度不匹配的条件下，提出一种提高孤子脉冲压缩效应的新方法．研究表明，若使信号脉冲与泵浦脉冲存在一适当的初始延时，则不但可以提高离散效应单独存在时信号脉冲的压缩比，而且可以提高孤子脉冲的压缩质量．     

The Spirit Is Willing: Nonlinearity, Bifurcations, and Mental Control

In recent years there has been considerable interest in the construction of nonlinear models of the dynamics of human behavior. In this exploratory article we argue that attempts at controlling problematic thoughts, emotions, or behaviors can lead to nonlinearity in mental/behavioral dynamics. We illustrate our model by fitting threshold autoregression models to self-recorded time series of the daily highs in intensity of anxiety and obsessive ruminations, kept by an individual in therapy for this problem. In our discussion, we raise the possibility that bifurcations that occur in this nonlinear model may offer insight into mental control paradoxes.     

Electrical properties of polypyrrole/p‐InP structure

The polypyrrole/p‐InP structure has been fabricated by the electrochemical polymerization of the organic polypyrrole onto the p‐InP substrate. The current–voltage (I–V), capacitance–voltage (C–V), and capacitance–frequency (C–f) characteristics of the PPy/p‐InP structure have been determined at room temperature. The structure showed nonideal I–V behavior with the ideality factor and the barrier height 1.48 and 0.69 eV respectively. C–f measurements of the structure have been carried out using the Schottky capacitance spectroscopy technique and it has been seen that there is a good agreement between the experimental and theoretical values. Also, it has been seen that capacitance almost show a plateau up to a certain value of frequency, after which, the capacitance decreases. The higher values of capacitance at low frequencies were attributed to the excess capacitance resulting from the interface states in equilibrium with the p‐InP that can follow the a.c. signal. The interface state density N_ss and relaxation time τ of the structure were determined from C–f characteristics. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Nd掺杂的Bi4Ti3O12变温X射线衍射分析

利用变温X射线衍射技术，在预烧过程中分析了Nd掺杂Bi4Ti3O12后生成Bi3.15Nd0.85Ti3O12（BNT）相的形成过程以及微结构的变化．实验观察到以30℃／min的升温速率，BNT相在700℃时开始形成，其衍射峰强度随温度的继续升高而增强，衍射峰半高宽随烧结时间延长而减小．X射线衍射分析结果表明，在900℃恒温条件下，烧结约2h，可形成单一的BNT相．

Pulsed pump: Thermal effects in solid state lasers under super-Gaussian pulses

Solid state laser (SSL) powers can be realistically scaled when pumped by a real, efficient and multimode pulse. In this work, a fourth-order super-Gaussian pulse was assumed as a pump for SSL’s and a complete analytical expression for the thermal phase shift is given. Moreover, the focal length of thermal lens in paraxial ray approximation regime was studied. The results when applied to a Ti: sapphire crystal show an appreciable correction for abberation compared to a top-hat pulse.     

ENSTAR detector forη- mesic studies

We have initiated a search for a new type of nuclear matter, theη-mesic nucleus, using beams from the multi-GeV hadron facility, COSY at Juelich, Germany. A large acceptance scintillator detector, ENSTAR has been designed and built at BARC, Mumbai and fully assembled and tested at COSY. A test run for calibration and evaluation has been completed. In this contribution we present the design and technical details of the ENSTAR detector and how it will be used to detect protons and pions (the decay products ofη-mesic bound state). The detector is made of plastic scintillators arranged in three concentric cylindrical layers. The readout of the detectors is by means of optical fibres. The layers are used to generate ΔE –E spectra for particle identification and total energy information of stopped particles. The granularity of the detector allows for position (θ and ?ø determination making the event reconstruction kinematically complete     

Asymptotic Properties of Quasi-Maximum Likelihood Estimators for ARMA Models with Time-Dependent Coefficients

For about thirty years, time series models with time-dependent coefficients have sometimes been considered as an alternative to models with constant coefficients or non-linear models. Analysis based on models with time-dependent models has long suffered from the absence of an asymptotic theory except in very special cases. The purpose of this paper is to provide such a theory without using a locally stationary spectral representation and time rescaling. We consider autoregressive-moving average (ARMA) models with time-dependent coefficients and a heteroscedastic innovation process. The coefficients and the innovation variance are deterministic functions of time which depend on a finite number of parameters. These parameters are estimated by maximising the Gaussian likelihood function. Deriving conditions for consistency and asymptotic normality and obtaining the asymptotic covariance matrix are done using some assumptions on the functions of time in order to attenuate non-stationarity, mild assumptions for the distribution of the innovations, and also a kind of mixing condition. Theorems from the theory of martingales and mixtingales are used. Some simulation results are given and both theoretical and practical examples are treated.

The intervalley X6→Γ6, L6 scattering time in GaAs measured by ultrafast pump-probe infrared absorption spectroscopy

A direct measurement of the dynamics of electrons in the X₆ valley for a GaAs crystal by time-resolved absorption spectroscopy is reported for the first time. IR picosecond probe pulses were used to monitor the growth and decay of the population in the X₆ valley subsequent to excitation by a 527 nm pump pulse. The intervalley X₆→Γ₆, L₆ scattering time t_x of 0.70 ± 0.50 ps is determined and the crossection for the X₆→X₇ transition is estimated to be 1.8 × 10⁻¹⁶ cm².
