Fabrication of Fe-, Ni- and FeNi-coated Al2O3 core-shell microspheres by heterogeneous precipitation

The precursors with NiCO₃·2Ni(OH)₂·2H₂O-, Fe₂O₃·nH₂O-, or both of NiCO₃·2Ni(OH)₂·2H₂O- and Fe₂O₃·nH₂O-coated alumina microspheres were prepared, respectively, by the aqueous heterogeneous precipitation using metal salts, ammonium hydro-carbonate and -Al₂O₃ micropowders as the starting materials. Subsequently, magnetic metallic Ni-, -Fe- and γ-FeNi-coated alumina core-shell structural microspheres were successfully obtained by thermal reduction of the as-prepared precursors at 700 °C for 2 h, respectively. Optimized precipitation processing parameters of the concentration of alumina micropowders (15 g/L), the rate of adding reactants (5 mL/min) and pH value were determined by a trial and error method. Powders of the precursors and the resultant metal (Ni, -Fe, γ-FeNi alloy)-coated alumina micropowders were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The experimental results show that it is possible to adjust metal coating thicknesses and fabricate multilayer structured metal/ceramics core-shell microspherical powder materials and these materials may be applied for high performance of functional materials and devices.     

A new method for the solution of three dimensional magnetostatic fields, using a scalar potential

A new method "Equivalent Magnetized Region Solution" based on scalar potential for solving 3D magnetostatic fields is presented. The current distribution is transformed into a region of magnetic dipoles and only one scalar potential is used to calculate the field. A program "CMF3D" has been developed by finite element method, equipped with program "MESH" for subdividing field region into elements. Three examples by the solution are presented and compared with results from analytical method or experiment.     

Colour Centres and Energy Transfer in BaF2-xClx:Eu2+ Phosphors

The optical absorption spectra of BaF2-xClx:Eu2 after ultraviolet (UV) light excitation were investigated.The differences between the absorption spectra after and before excitation (DAS) were observed.The DAS increase at both the high and the low energy side of F band in BaF2-xClx:Eu2 after 245 nm UV light excitation.The bleach effect of UV light and the absorption of electrons in the valence band may account for the former and the formation of Fa centres (association of F(Cl-) centres), whose absorption band matches the HeNe laser better, may explain the latter.In the write-in process, the transfer of electrons is via tunneling.In the readout process, the transfer of electrons captured in F(F-) and Fa centres is more likely via tunneling, and that of F(Cl-) centres is more likely via conduction band.     

西藏南部地区人工爆炸地震探测的地壳结构

众所周如,西藏地区是研究地球深部结构和构造的窗口,是研究大陆板块学说的重要场所,也是寻找热源和其它矿产资源的有利地区.因此,世界各国地学科学家都希望在本地区进行科学研究工作,或与我国科学工作者协作共同探索这一重要地区.中国和法国的地质、地球物理科学家经商讨共同组成“中法喜马拉雅山地质研究队”,对西藏中部广大地区进行地质、地球物理的科学研究工作.深部地震探测是地球物理研究中的重要内容.中法双方共同决定,在中国西藏南部的日喀则地区至北边的那曲地区作地震探测工作.为了探测地壳上地幔的结构,1981年在西藏的南部佩枯错至普莫雍错500公里的喜马拉雅山北麓——雅鲁藏布江地区进行了人工爆炸地震探测工作.本文是中法地质研究队合作的深部地震探测资料的解释结果.     

Hallucinating face by eigentransformation

In video surveillance, the faces of interest are often of small size. Image resolution is an important factor affecting face recognition by human and computer. In this paper, we propose a new face hallucination method using eigentransformation. Different from most of the proposed methods based on probabilistic models, this method views hallucination as a transformation between different image styles. We use Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to fit the input face image as a linear combination of the low-resolution face images in the training set. The high-resolution image is rendered by replacing the low-resolution training images with high-resolution ones, while retaining the same combination coefficients. Experiments show that the hallucinated face images are not only very helpful for recognition by humans, but also make the automatic recognition procedure easier, since they emphasize the face difference by adding more high-frequency details.     

三峡水电站ALSTOM机组低水头运行稳定性分析

混流式水轮机的水力稳定性与机组水力工况密切相关。以三峡电站左岸6号机组稳定性试验为例，分析了ALSTOM机组的低水头运行稳定性。根据试验分析结果，可将机组运行工况划分为小负荷区、涡带振动区、大负荷运行区。小负荷区机组效率较低，机组不宜在此区间运行；大负荷区机组运行稳定性最佳，但机组应避开强涡带工况区和特殊频率振动区运行。

Broad-band MMICs based on modified loss-compensation method using 0.35-/spl mu/m SiGe BiCMOS technology

Using the concept of loss compensation, novel broad-band monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs), including an amplifier and an analog multiplier/mixer, with LC ladder matching networks in a commercial 0.35-mum SiGe BiCMOS technology are demonstrated for the first time. An HBT two-stage cascade single-stage distributed amplifier (2-CSSDA) using the modified loss-compensation technique is presented. It demonstrates a small-signal gain of better than 15 dB from dc to 28 GHz (gain-bandwidth product=157 GHz) with a low power consumption of 48 mW and a miniature chip size of 0.63 mm² including testing pads. The gain-bandwidth product of the modified loss-compensated CSSDA is improved approximately 68% compared with the conventional attenuation-compensation technique. The wide-band amplifier achieves a high gain-bandwidth product with the lowest power consumption and smallest chip size. The broad-band mixer designed using a Gilbert cell with the modified loss-compensation technique achieves a measured power conversion gain of 19 dB with a 3-dB bandwidth from 0.1 to 23 GHz, which is the highest gain-bandwidth product of operation among previously reported MMIC mixers. As an analog multiplier, the measured sensitivity is better than 3000 V/W from 0.1 to 25 GHz, and the measured low-frequency noise floor and corner frequency can be estimated to be 20 nV/sqrt(Hz) and 1.2 kHz, respectively. The mixer performance represents state-of-the-art result of the MMIC broad-band mixers using commercial silicon-based technologies
