A versatile pulse programmer for magnetic resonance imaging

Hardware and software solutions for a versatile pulse programmer have been presented. The core of the pulse programmer is an FPGA device that provides flexibility to the design and reduces the number of electronics elements needed. The event of the pulse programmer consists of 16 bits. The main feature of the proposed pulse programmer is that the 16 outputs can be independently delayed. This is important for correcting delays of the RF channels or the gradient channels due to various causes. The proposed pulse programmer is integrated into an MRI scanner, and the correction of the gradient system delay is taken as an example to experimentally demonstrate its performance.     

An accurate analytical approach to electron crystallography

A much more accurate analytical expression of dynamical electron diffraction than the phase object approximation (POA) formula has been derived in this paper which decreases the restriction of sample thickness up to almost one order of magnitude compared to POA theory. The importance of the new expression is twofold. First, a sample with such a thickness that new expression remains valid can be prepared experimentally. Second, the new expression reveals a clear and straightforward relationship between the wave function and crystal potential. In the expression, the effect of dynamical diffraction on wave function can be simply attributed to two factors TP(D) = (sin(lambda pi zg2))/(4pi2g2) and TA(D) = [1 - cos(lambda pi zg2)]/4pi2g2. Compared to the effect of transfer functions of an electron microscope on wave function, we found that TP(d) and TA(d) play the same role as transfer function but are independent of the instrument.For this reason, we here call the former as "extrinsic transfer functions" and the latter as "intrinsic" ones. In principle, one should correct not only extrinsic transfer functions but also intrinsic ones if one desires to achieve higher resolution.     

A distributed deadlock detection algorithm for mobile computing system

The mode of mobile computing originated from distributed computing and it has the un-idempotent operation property, therefore the deadlock detection algorithm designed for mobile computing systems will face challenges with regard to correctness and high efficiency. This paper attempts a fundamental study of deadlock detection for the AND model of mobile computing systems. First, the existing deadlock detection algorithms for distributed systems are classified into the resource node dependent （ RD ） and the resource node independent （RI） categories, and their corresponding weaknesses are discussed. Afterwards a new RI algorithm based on the AND model of mobile computing system is presented. The novelties of our algorithm are that： 1 ） the blocked nodes inform their predecessors and successors simultaneously; 2） the detection messages （agents） hold the predecessors information of their originator; 3 ） no agent is stored midway. Additionally, the quit-inform scheme is introduced to treat the excessive victim quitting problem raised by the overlapped cycles. By these methods the proposed algorithm can detect a cycle of size n within n - 2 steps and with （ n^2- n - 2 ）/2 agents. The performance of our algorithm is compared with the most competitive RD and RI algorithms for distributed systems on a mobile agent simulation platform. Experiment results point out that our algorithm outperforms the two algorithms under the vast majority of resource configurations and concurrent workloads. The correctness of the proposed algorithm is formally proven by the invariant verification technique.

快速热处理下镍对锗单晶电学性能的影响

采用磁控溅射法在n-Ge表面镀镍薄膜,通过改变快速热处理时间研究镍对锗单晶的导电型号、电阻率和少子寿命的影响,以及镍在锗中的扩散行为。结果表明：镍在锗中具有向内扩散和向外扩散两种行为,并以受主状态存在,改变了锗内部的载流子的分布;775℃热处理后,镍受主完全补偿原有的施主,使锗由n型转变为P型,随着热处理时间的增加,电阻率下降,镍受主浓度增加。即使微量的镍就可以使锗的少子寿命直线下降至零点几微秒,这表明镍在锗中会引入深能级。

Isotope and hydrochemical study of seawater intrusion in Laizhou Bay, Shandong Province

Seawater intrusion on the northern coast of Laizhou City is featured by "three sources and three dimensions". Modern sea water, ancient saline water and brine contained both in the Quaternary aquifer and in the bedrock fissures or crevice have been identified as possible sources. The ratio of γSO4/γCI is used to distinguish the origin of the different types of saline water. The correlation between 3H and y SO4/γ Cl provides a quantitative differentiation on the origin of the saline water, which makes it possible to take counter protection measures in different areas affected by sea water intrusion.
