On the Feasibility of Growing Pb[(Zn1/3Nb2/3)0.91Ti0.09]O3 Single Crystals

Pb[(Zn_1/3Nb_2/3)_0.91Ti_0.09]O₃ (PZNT91/9) single crystals were grown by two methods: from solution using PbO as a self‐fluxing agent (SC method) and directly from the melt without fluxing (MC method). In both growth methods, an allomeric Pb[(Mg_1/3‐Nb_2/3)_0.69Ti_0.31]O₃ (PMNT69/31) single crystal was used as a seed. X‐ray diffraction patterns of ground crystals showed that phase‐pure perovskite PZNT91/9 single crystals were successfully fabricated by the above two methods. The composition of the crystals obtained by both the SC and MC methods was analyzed using X‐ray fluorescence, which confirmed that the crystal composition is close to the nominal value, although volatilization of PbO and segregation during crystal growth are inevitable. The MC PZNT91/9 crystals exhibit excellent piezoelectric properties, with the piezoelectric constant, d₃₃, in the range of 1800–2200 pC N^–1. This value is comparable to that of the SC crystals. However, the MC crystals show an abnormal dielectric behavior. In contrast with the SC crystals, in the MC crystals a much broader dielectric peak appears in the dielectric response curves, accompanied by a much lower peak temperature of around 105 °C. Furthermore, frequency dispersion is apparent over a much wider temperature range (even more apparent than in pure relaxors), where a large, i.e., about 70 °C, full width at half maximum (FWHM) for the dielectric peaks is observed in the dielectric response. It is speculated that such an unusual phenomenon correlates with defects, microinhomogeneities, and polar regions in the as‐grown MC crystals. The origins of this abnormality have not been interpreted in detail until now. However, optical observation of the domain structure confirms that both the SC and MC crystals possess complex structural states.     

Antenna-array pattern nulling using a differential evolution algorithm

A new method based on the differential evolution (DE) algorithm is proposed for antenna-array pattern synthesis with prescribed nulls. The array excitation amplitudes are the only controlling parameters, and the objectives are to synthesize array patterns with nulls imposed on directions of interferences while keeping the sidelobe levels (SLLs) below prescribed levels. Many factors such as the excitation dynamic range ratio, null depth level, null width, and SLLs are taken into account in the synthesis. Simulation results of several typical problems are compared with published results to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Routing Correlated Data with Fusion Cost in Wireless Sensor Networks

In this paper, we propose a routing algorithm called minimum fusion Steiner tree (MFST) for energy efficient data gathering with aggregation (fusion) in wireless sensor networks. Different from existing schemes, MFST not only optimizes over the data transmission cost, but also incorporates the cost for data fusion, which can be significant for emerging sensor networks with vectorial data and/or security requirements. By employing a randomized algorithm that allows fusion points to be chosen according to the nodes' data amounts, MFST achieves an approximation ratio of 5/4log(k + 1), where k denotes the number of source nodes, to the optimal solution for extremely general system setups, provided that fusion cost and data aggregation are nondecreasing against the total input data. Consequently, in contrast to algorithms that only excel in full or nonaggregation scenarios without considering fusion cost, MFST can thrive in a wide range of applications

基于C6711处理器cdma2000 1X系统前向信道信号的处理

在cdma20001x前向信道中,要对一段信号进行传送,一般选用QPSK调制,因为QPSK调制比QAM更适合噪音环境。采用TI6000系列的TMS320C6711芯片处理前向信道信号,可以对复杂性和实时性较高的信号做采集、量化、编码、调制等实时处理,主要功能通过软件编程实现,从而使系统具有结构灵活、可靠性高、可扩展等优点。     

陆东凹陷油气藏烃类组成非均质性及其意义

陆东凹陷原油和油砂抽提物中烃类的宏观组成存在着明显的非均质性。在高孔隙度(>15%)储层单元中,饱和烃的含量高,占总组成的含量均大于40%,而极性化合物则相对较低,一般不足40%;相反,在低孔隙度(<15%)储层单元中,饱和烃的含量明显降低,而极性化合物则显著增加。此外,陆东凹陷原油和油砂抽提物中烃类成熟度亦存在着非均质性:在高孔隙度储层中,原油和油砂烃类的成熟度参数高,而在低孔隙度储层中原油和油砂烃类的成熟度参数低。根据原油和油砂抽提物中烃类的宏观组成特征和成熟度参数的变化规律,提出了陆东凹陷油气聚集模式。

Preparation, patterning and luminescent properties of nanocrystalline Gd2O3:A (A=Eu, Dy, Sm, Er) phosphor films via Pechini sol–gel soft lithography

Nanocrystalline Gd₂O₃:A (A=Eu³⁺, Dy³⁺, Sm³⁺, Er³⁺) phosphor films and their patterning were fabricated by a Pechini sol–gel process combined with a soft lithography. X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical microscopy, UV/vis transmission and photoluminescence (PL) spectra as well as lifetimes were used to characterize the resulting films. The results of XRD indicated that the films began to crystallize at 500 °C and that the crystallinity increased with the elevation of annealing temperatures. Uniform and crack free non-patterned phosphor films were obtained by optimizing the composition of the coating sol, which mainly consisted of grains with an average size of 70 nm and a thickness of 550 nm. Using micro-molding in capillaries technique, we obtained homogeneous and defects-free patterned gel and crystalline phosphor films with different stripe widths (5, 10, 20 and 50 μm). Significant shrinkage (50%) was observed in the patterned films during the heat treatment process. The doped rare earth ions (A) showed their characteristic emission in crystalline Gd₂O₃ phosphor films due to an efficient energy transfer from Gd₂O₃ host to them. Both the lifetimes and PL intensity of the rare earth ions increased with increasing the annealing temperature from 500 to 900 °C, and the optimum concentrations for Eu³⁺, Dy³⁺, Sm³⁺, Er³⁺ were determined to be 5, 0.25, 1 and 1.5 mol% of Gd³⁺ in Gd₂O₃ films, respectively.
