Circuit analysis of the compound quasi-optical power combiner

In 1991, we developed a new type of quasi-optical power combiner, called a compound quasi-optical power combiner, at Ka-band. In this paper, the circuit of such a compound quasi-optical power combiner is analysed. Its equivalent circuit model is proposed. The circuit equations, the balance condition, the injection locking and the stabilized condition of the compound quasi-optical power combiner are studed by the equivalent circuit model. As an example, a compound quasi-optical power combiner which consists of two single—cavity, two—device power combiners is analysed     

The interlace polynomial of a graph

Motivated by circle graphs, and the enumeration of Euler circuits, we define a one-variable “interlace polynomial” for any graph. The polynomial satisfies a beautiful and unexpected reduction relation, quite different from the cut and fuse reduction characterizing the Tutte polynomial.It emerges that the interlace graph polynomial may be viewed as a special case of the Martin polynomial of an isotropic system, which underlies its connections with the circuit partition polynomial and the Kauffman brackets of a link diagram. The graph polynomial, in addition to being perhaps more broadly accessible than the Martin polynomial for isotropic systems, also has a two-variable generalization that is unknown for the Martin polynomial. We consider extremal properties of the interlace polynomial, its values for various special graphs, and evaluations which relate to basic graph properties such as the component and independence numbers.

Physically based molecular device model in a transient circuit simulator

Two efficient, physically based models for the real-time simulation of molecular device characteristics of single molecules are developed. These models assume that through-molecule tunnelling creates a steady-state Lorentzian distribution of excess electron density on the molecule and provides for smooth transitions for the electronic degrees of freedom between the tunnelling, molecular-excitation, and charge-hopping transport regimes. They are implemented in the fREEDA™ transient circuit simulator to allow for the full integration of nanoscopic molecular devices in standard packages that simulate entire devices including CMOS circuitry. Methods are presented to estimate the parameters used in the models via either direct experimental measurement or density-functional calculations. The models require 6–8 orders of magnitude less computer time than do full a priori simulations of the properties of molecular components. Consequently, molecular components can be efficiently implemented in circuit simulators. The molecular-component models are tested by comparison with experimental results reported for 1,4-benzenedithiol.     

影响白砂糖色值测量结果的原因探讨

研究了水质、滤膜、溶液浓度、糖液ｐＨ值、混浊度的变化与白砂糖色值的关系。研究结果表明，溶液的ｐＨ变化影响最严重。不调整糖液ｐＨ与用ＨＣｌ或ＮａＯＨ调整糖液ｐＨ对比所得白砂糖色值的结果是满意的。标准偏差１１２～１８６，相对标准偏差１１６％～２２５％，调ｐＨ使结果偏高，导致产生系统误差。因此：测定白砂糖色值不宜调整糖液的ｐＨ。     

Wiener distributions and white noise analysis

The paper describes the structure of a new space of generalized Wiener functionals, , called the Wiener algebra, or space of Wiener distributions, and demonstrates its use in the white noise analysis. The concepts of derivatives and integrals for multi-time parameter generalized stochastic process:^N are introduced, and a derivative version of Itô's lemma is proved. The algebraic structure of and its lattice of subspaces is elaborated, and within this framework a generalized version of the Malliavin calculus is presented.     

A new 4-D non-equilibrium fractional-order chaotic system and its circuit implementation

A new 4-D fractional-order chaotic system without equilibrium point is proposed in this paper. There is no chaotic behavior for its corresponding integer-order system. By computer simulations, we find complex dynamical behaviors in this system, and obtain that the lowest order for exhibiting a chaotic attractor is 3.2. We also design an electronic circuit to realize this 4-D fractional-order chaotic system and present some experiment results.     

Analysis of the Chemical Composition of Red Pigments and Inks for the Characterization and Differentiation of Contemporary Prints

Prints are one of the most popular artistic forms. They consist of an original matrix that is printed on a paper support. The stamps are part of a series, and each series is composed of a particular number of prints. Many contemporary prints are made using oil inks and synthetic pigments (reds and yellows). Inks are mainly composed of pigments (organic or inorganic) and a binding medium. The analysis of inks has the potential to facilitate and complement the identification of stamps of different origins.

Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy-Energy Dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX) are techniques that are typically available in museums and centers related to the study of works of art. Both can be classified as micro-destructive and provide complementary information about the organic and some inorganic compounds (FTIR), and the elemental composition (SEM-EDX). In this article, the two techniques were used to analyze the composition of red ink in prints. As a result of these analyses, it was possible to distinguish among nearly all of the pigments and inks, indicating that the composition of the red ink can be reliably used to differentiate between stamps of different origins in a series of prints.     

Neurofibrillary tangles and plaques are not accompanied by white matter pathology in aged triple transgenic-Alzheimer disease mice

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that is the most common cause of dementia in aging populations. Although senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles are well-established hallmarks of AD, changes in cerebral white matter correlate with cognitive decline and may increase the risk of the development of dementia. We used the triple transgenic (3xTg)-AD mouse model of AD, previously used to show that white matter changes precede plaque formation, to test the hypothesis that MRI detectable changes occur in the corpus callosum, external capsule and the fornix. T₂-weighted and diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging and histological stains were employed to assess white matter in older (11–17 months) 3xTg-AD mice and controls. We found no statistically significant changes in white matter between 3xTg-AD mice and controls, despite well-developed neurofibrillary tangles and beta amyloid immunoreactive plaques. Myelin staining was normal in affected mice. These data suggest that the 3xTg-AD mouse model does not develop MRI detectable white matter changes at the ages we examined.     

A novel hyperchaotic system and its circuit implementation

A four-dimensional hyperchaotic system with five parameters is proposed. Its dynamical properties such as dissipativity, equilibrium points, Lyapunov exponent, Lyapunov dimension, bifurcation diagrams and Poincare maps are analyzed theoretically and numerically. Theoretical analyses and simulation tests indicate that the new system's dynamics behavior can be periodic attractor, chaotic attractor and hyperchaotic attractor as the parameter varies. Finally, the circuit of this new hyperchaotic system is designed and realized by Multisim software. The simulation results confirm that the chaotic system is different from the existing chaotic systems and is a novel hyperchaotic system. The system is recommendable for many engineering applications such as information processing, cryptology, secure communications, etc.
