Integrated plasma-aided nanofabrication facility: Operation, parameters, and assembly of quantum structures and functional nanomaterials

The development, operation, and applications of two configurations of an integrated plasma-aided nanofabrication facility (IPANF) comprising low-frequency inductively coupled plasma-assisted, low-pressure, multiple-target RF magnetron sputtering plasma source, are reported. The two configurations of the plasma source have different arrangements of the RF inductive coil: a conventional external flat spiral “pancake” coil and an in-house developed internal antenna comprising two orthogonal RF current sheets. The internal antenna configuration generates a “unidirectional” RF current that deeply penetrates into the plasma bulk and results in an excellent uniformity of the plasma over large areas and volumes. The IPANF has been employed for various applications, including low-temperature plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition of vertically aligned single-crystalline carbon nanotips, growth of ultra-high aspect ratio semiconductor nanowires, assembly of optoelectronically important Si, SiC, and Al_1-xIn_xN quantum dots, and plasma-based synthesis of bioactive hydroxyapatite for orthopedic implants.     

Description of Structural Damage Caused by the Terrorist Attack on the Pentagon

On September 11, 2001, an airliner was intentionally crashed into the Pentagon. It struck at the first elevated slab on the west wall, and slid approximately 310?ft (94.5?m) diagonally into the building. The force of the collision demolished numerous columns and the fa?ade of the exterior wall, and induced damage to first-floor columns and the first elevated slab over an area approximately 90?ft (27.4?m) wide and 310?ft (94.5?m) long. None of the building collapsed immediately. The portion that remained standing, even after an intense fire, sustained substantial damage at the first-floor level.     

Omnibus Hypothesis Testing in Dominance-Based Ordinal Multiple Regression.

Often quantitative data in the social sciences have only ordinal justification. Problems of interpretation can arise when least squares multiple regression (LSMR) is used with ordinal data. Two ordinal alternatives are discussed, dominance-based ordinal multiple regression (DOMR) and proportional odds multiple regression. The Q2 statistic is introduced for testing the omnibus null hypothesis in DOMR. A simulation study is discussed that examines the actual Type I error rate and power of Q2 in comparison to the LSMR omnibus F test under normality and non-normality. Results suggest that Q2 has favorable sampling properties as long as the sample size-to-predictors ratio is not too small, and Q2 can be a good alternative to the omnibus F test when the response variable is non-normal.

CT-6B托卡马克的交流运行实验研究

在CT—6B托卡马克上首次实现了多周期交流运行，对多个周期中等离子体进行比较发现，尽管在每个周期的两个半周中等离子体与壁的相互作用有所不同，但等离子体中的杂质积累并未受到严重影响。通过内磁探针测量了等离子体电流密度的分布，发现等离子体电流首先从弱场区开始反相，电流反相过零时同时存在正负局部等离子体电流，此时的磁面结构有效地约束了粒子。

一种新的多维稀疏规则模糊插值推理方法

经典的插值理论针对一维稀疏规则库的条件，提出了各种不同的插值方法，取得了很多很好的经验．但对多维稀疏规则条件的近似推理，研究很少，仅有的几种插值方法，存在着难以保证推理结果的凸性和正规性等问题．为了在多维稀疏规则条件下能得到好的插值推理结果。提出了一种基于几何相似的插值推理方法．该方法能较好地保证推理结果隶属函数的凸性和正规性，为智能系统中的模糊推理提供了一个十分有用的工具．
