A novel approach to design microwave medium of negative refractive index and simulation verification

In this paper, a novel approach is presented to synthesize microwave medium of negative refractive index by incorporating metallic wire array with negative effective permittivity into the host media such as ferrimagnet-YIG （yttrium iron garnet） applied by external magnetic field whose permeability is negarive. We have designed the composite medium having negative refractive index in C/X band frequencies, analyzed and simulated its electromagnetic （EM） properties by use of EM EDA package based on time-domain finite integration method. The simulation results show that： ① the effective permittivity of the designed metallic wire array is negative in the frequency range from 7.02 GHz to 9.80 GHz; ② the permeability of YIG substrate immersed into an external magnetic field is negative in the frequency range from 5.22 GHz to 8.14 GHz; ③ EM wave can pass through the composite medium synthesized by the above designed metallic wire array and YIG substrate, and ④ the negative refraction behavior occurs on the interface between the composite medium and the normal material with positive refractive index in 7.51-8.13 GHz frequency range, in which the effective permitUvity of the metallic wire array and the permeability of YIG substrate are negative simultaneously. The full wave simulation has demonstrated that the effective refractive index of the designed composite medium is indeed negative and ascertained that the proposed approach to design microwave medium with negative refractive index is viable.     

Left-handed properties of a composite structure with metallic wires in a homogeneous Lorentz medium

The electromagnetic properties of a composite structure with metallic wires in a Lorentz medium were studied. The results show that the electromagnetic properties of the medium host influence the plasma resonance of metallic wires and the left-handed character of the composite. The plasma frequency of metallic wires reduces with the rise of permittivity or permeability of the medium host. Also, the negative permeability of the medium can destroy the wires' plasma resonance and prevent the realization of left-handed properties. The high loss of medium permittivity or permeability also inhibits the metallic plasma resonance. The negative influence of the media host on the left-handed properties of the composite structure can be effectively reduced by proper structure design, such as introducing a nonmagnetic medium in the host or using an anisotropic medium.

Preparation of (R)- and (S)-2-Allyl-1, 3, 2-dinaphtho (α, β) [d.f] dioxaborepin and their reactions with aldehydes

(R)- and(S)-2-Allyl-1,3,2-dinaphtho (α,β) [d.f] dioxaborepin ((R)-2 and(S)-2) have been first prepared by the reaction of(R)-(+)- or(S)-(−)-1, 1′-bi-2-naphthol and triallylborane in THF at room temperature, respectively.(S)-2 and(R)-2 are sensitive to moisture and oxygen in air and disproportionate easily to triallylborane and 1,1′-bi-2 naphthyl bis (1,1′-bi-2-naphtholborate) at ambient temperature. However, THF is a stabilizer for them. The reactions of(R)-2 or(S)-2 and some aliphetic or aromatic aldehydes in CH₂Cl₂ at −78°C for several hours afforded β-alkylenyl alcohols in up to 84.8%ee. Among them, optically active 1-(3, 5-dichlorophenyl)-3-butenol and 1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-3-butenol were first prepared Foundation item: Supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (29972033) Biography: Liu Dejun (1973), male, Ph.

Some Results about the Sample Path Properties of Markov Processes with Independent Self-Similar Components

This paper considers a special class of operator self-similar processes Markov processes {X（t）, t≥0} with independent self-similar components, that is, X （ t ） =（X^1（t）,…,X^d（t））, where {X^i（t）,t≥0}, i=1,2,…,d are d independent real valued self-similar Markov processes. By means of Brel-Cantelli lemma, we give two results about asymptotic property as t→∞ of sample paths for two special classes of Markov processes with independent self-similar components.

An Improved Genetic Algorithm for Problem of Genome Rearrangement

In view of the fact that the problem of sorting unsigned permutation by reversal is NP-hard, while the problem of sorting signed permutation by reversal can be solved easily, in this paper, we first transform an unsigned permutation of length n,π （π1 ,… ,πn）, into a set S（π） containing 2^n signed permutations, so that the reversal distance of π is equal to the reversal distance of the optimal signed permutation in S（π）. Then analyze the structural features of S（π） by creating a directed graph and induce a new computing model of this question. Finally, an improved genetic algorithm for solving the new model is proposed. Experimental results show that the proposed model and algorithm is very efficient in practice.     

Characterization of Anabaena cylindrica Solution System Using Synchronous-Scan Fluorescence Spectroscopy

The characterization of the algaeAnabaena cylindrica solution with Fe (III) was investigated using fluorescence emission and synchronous-scan spectroscopy. The ranges of concentrations of algae and Fe (III) in aqueous solutions were 5.0×10⁸ 2.5×10⁸ cell/L and 1060 μmol/L. respectively. The effective characterization method used was synchronous-scan fluorescence spectroscopy (SFS). The wavelength difference (Δλ) of 90 nm, was maintained between excitation wavelength (λen) and emission wavelength (λen). The peak was observed at about (λex) (λem) 326 nm for synchronous scan fluorescence spectroscopy. The fluorescence quenching in system of algae Fe(III)-HA was studied using synchronous-scan spectroscopy for the first time, Fe(III) was clearly the effective quencher. The relationship betweenI I (quenching efficiency) andc (concentration of Fe (III) added) was, a linear correlation for the algae solution with Fe(III). Also, Aldrich humie acid (HA) was found to be an effective quencher.

Dynamically Computing Approximate Frequency Counts in Sliding Window over Data Stream

This paper presents two one-pass algorithms for dynamically computing frequency counts in sliding window over a data stream-computing frequency counts exceeding user-specified threshold ε. The first algorithm constructs subwindows and deletes expired sub-windows periodically in sliding window, and each sub-window maintains a summary data structure. The first algorithm outputs at most 1/ε ＋ 1 elements for frequency queries over the most recent N elements. The second algorithm adapts multiple levels method to deal with data stream. Once the sketch of the most recent N elements has been constructed, the second algorithm can provides the answers to the frequency queries over the most recent n （ n≤N） elements. The second algorithm outputs at most 1/ε ＋ 2 elements. The analytical and experimental results show that our algorithms are accurate and effective.     

Investigation of performances and mechanism of fluoride removal by Fe (III)-loaded ligand exchange cotton cellulose adsorbent

Novel adsorbent, Fe(III)-loaded ligand exchange cotton cellulose adsorbent [Fe(III)LECCA], was used to investigate the adsorption performances and mechanism of fluoride removal from aqueous solutions. The adsorbent was found to adsorb fluoride rapidly and effectively. The fluoride removal was influenced by pH. Adsorption model followed first-order reaction at different temperature, theapparent adsorption activated energyE, was 6.37 kJ·mol⁻¹, and adsorption enthalpy ΔH was 5.35 kJ·mol⁻¹. The adsorption capacity of fluoride on adsorbent was 3.2 mmol·g⁻¹ (dry weight). The maximal integer coordination ratio of fluoride with Fe(III) LECCA was 3∶1. The ligand exchange mechanism of adsorption was elucidated through chemical methods and IR spectral analysis.

NMR Revealed Activated Alumina-Water Interaction

Three different spin-lattice relaxation times ( T1 ) of water were obtained in activated alumina-water slurry system, which indicate that there exist three states of water: bound water, pore water and bulk water. The chemical shift (δ11) decreases as the amount of water added to the system increases due to the differences in contribution of these three states of water in the samples. The δ11 value for adsorbed water decreases nearly linearly and T1 increases with elevating temperature, which result from the decrease in the content of bound water by the increase in thermal motion.

Efficiency of Slit Dam Prevention against Non-Viscous Debris Flow

This paper describes an experimental work in order to assess the efficiency of slit dam on non-viscous debris flow. Some results have been acquired as follows： （1） there are three kinds of blocking type; Total-blocking, opening and part-blocking. The blocking conditions of slit dam are closely link to b/dmax （the ratio of slit width to maximum diameter of solid matter）, as b/dmax is less than 0. 739, the slit dam is total- blocking; and b/dmax is more than 1. 478, the slit dam will be opening; whereas b/dma ranges from 0. 739 to 1. 478, the slit dam is part-blocking. （2） Variation of the mean density passing through slit dam is the most obvious as b/dmax ranges from 0. 739 to 1. 232. （2） According to experimental results, slit dams have been shown to be effective in reducing debris flow density while slit density ∑ b/B （B is slit dam width） ranges from 0.2 to 0. 5.     

Subliminal Channels in the NTRU and the Subliminal-Free Methods

The construetion and destruction of subliminal channel are important problems in the information hiding. The subliminal channel can send secret information without notice. Two subliminal-free methods named weak （strong） subliminal-free on public-key cryptosystem （PKC） are proposed in this paper using the combinatorial method. The first method can only free the subliminal information with any minor probability and the second can free all. Moreover, the ＂traitor problem＂ which is same as the model of the subliminal channel in PKC is given. Two subliminal channels are embedded in N-th degree truncated polynomial ring （NTRU） cryptosystem, and their subliminal-free methods are also be obtained by the action of surveillant.
