Ripples are formed on the surface of solid materials after interaction with laser pulses of high intensity/irradiance. When ultra-short sub-1 ps laser pulses are used, the observed morphology of ripples on surfaces becomes much more complex as compared with ripples formed by long laser pulses. Uniquely for the short laser pulses, ripples can be formed in the bulk. A better understanding of the fundamentals of light-matter interaction in ripples formation is strongly required. Experimentally observed ripples and dependence of their parameters on laser fabrication conditions and material properties are summarized first. Then, a critical review of relevant ripple formation mechanisms is presented, discussed, and formation conjectures are presented. 相似文献
Recent advancements in isolation and stacking of layered van der Waals materials have created an unprecedented paradigm for demonstrating varieties of 2D quantum materials. Rationally designed van der Waals heterostructures composed of monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and few-layer hBN show several unique optoelectronic features driven by correlations. However, entangled superradiant excitonic species in such systems have not been observed before. In this report, it is demonstrated that strong suppression of phonon population at low temperature results in a formation of a coherent excitonic-dipoles ensemble in the heterostructure, and the collective oscillation of those dipoles stimulates a robust phase synchronized ultra-narrow band superradiant emission even at extremely low pumping intensity. Such emitters are in high demand for a multitude of applications, including fundamental research on many-body correlations and other state-of-the-art technologies. This timely demonstration paves the way for further exploration of ultralow-threshold quantum-emitting devices with unmatched design freedom and spectral tunability. 相似文献
Male lambs, crossbred Merino × Ille de France, were fed a diet supplemented with 31 mg monensin or 32 mg lasalocid per kg of feed dry matter from an initial body weight of 23·6–23·9 kg to the slaughter weight of approximately 40 kg.
Carcass traits and meat quality were evaluated after slaughter; the values obtained were compared with those of the control group fed the same diet without the ionophore supplement.
There were few significant differences among the individual groups in carcass value, sensoric and technological properties of meat and of its composition. However, the lasalocid-fed group seemed to be somewhat better in muscling and in the composition of meat. 相似文献
The main objective of this study was to make components from a novel low-loss, low-temperature Co-fired ceramic (LTCC) dielectric,
which was also compatible with a high-conductivity silver paste. The multilayer-component fabrication procedure is presented
together with a composition for a tape-casting slurry, choice of conductor paste, and LTCC process parameters. A good Q factor,
>100 at 2 GHz, using the novel material system has been achieved for λ/2 resonators operating in the frequency range 1.7–3.7
GHz. An excellent frequency response for a 2 GHz bandpass filter has also been achieved; the insertion losses in the passband
were less than −2 dB (bandwidth 60 MHz) and the attenuation more than 25 dB in the stopband located 190 MHz higher. 相似文献
The reasons for using lactic acid bacteria are to make food durable, to improve its taste and to maintain the nutritive,
physiological and hygienic value of the fermentation products. Sixteen strains of the genus Lactobacillus were tested on samples of white fresh cabbage and of a sterilized cabbage and carrot juice mixture. After 7 days of lactic
acid fermentation at 27 °C or 30 °C, reducing sugars, total acidity, pH value, lactic, citric and acetic acids, ammonia,
nitrates and nitrites were measured in the samples. On the basis of the criteria mentioned above three strains were acceptable.
These strains reduced the content of nitrates in the original samples.

A new method for accurate determination of noise parameters of microwave transistors for various bias conditions is proposed in this paper. The proposed model consists of a transistor empirical noise model (modification of Pospieszalski’s noise model) and two artificial neural networks. With the aim to avoid extraction of the empirical model parameters for each bias point, an artificial neural network is used to introduce bias-dependence of the equivalent circuit parameters. Accuracy of such bias-dependent model is further improved by using an additional neural network aimed to correct the noise parameters’ values. The proposed modeling approach is exemplified by modelling of a MESFET device in packaged form. The noise parameters obtained by the simulation agree well with the measured data. 相似文献
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have been recognised as a powerful means to integrate and analyse data from various sources in the context of comprehensive floodplain management. As part of this comprehensive approach to floodplain management, it is very important to be able to predict the consequences of different scenarios in terms of flooded areas and associated risk. Hydrologic and hydraulic modelling plays a crucial role and there is much to gain in incorporating these modelling capabilities in GIS. This is still a rather complex task and research is being done on the full integration of these models. Interfacing between these models and GIS may be a very efficient way of overcoming the difficulties and getting very good results in terms of engineering practice. This paper presents results based on the use of Intergraph GIS coupled with Idrisi GIS. Using these two systems substantially increased the flexibility of using GIS as a tool for flood studies. A lumped (XSRAIN) and a distributed (OMEGA) hydrologic models were used to simulate flood hydrographs. The well known HEC-2 Hydraulic model was used to compute flooded areas. These models were applied in the Livramento catchment with very good results. The computation of flooded areas for different flood scenarios, and its representation in GIS, can be used in the assessment of affected property and associated damages. This is a very useful GIS-based approach to floodplain management. 相似文献
Bike sharing system as mode of public transport is very popular in the world. This smart solution can be described as answer to an increasingly frequent traffic congestion and parking problems in many cities all around the world. This issue is beginning to relate to some cities in Slovakia as well. Bicycles address traffic congestion as they form a valid substitution for cars on short trips, contribute to the use of public transport by providing effective last-mile connectivity and simply take up less space on the road. As the system of shared bicycles works from 2016, it is relatively new in Slovakia. This is a reason why this system still has some problems and deficiencies that need to be optimized. Presented paper focused on the city of Nitra, which is currently struggling with the issue of traffic congestion. The main aim of paper is to point out the opportunities and constraints arising from the concept of shared bicycles in the conditions of city of Nitra. Our proposals and recommendations are based on the opinions of the citizens of Nitra obtained from conducted marketing survey(625 respondents – citizens of Nitra). The results of the survey have brought important insights into improving the strategy of shared bicycles, focusing on attractiveness for citizens, and ultimately, urban transport solutions.
A PIM–SM-built multicast tree must be restructured when the underlying unicast routing tables change. We describe the PIM–SM recovery mechanisms and evaluate the recovery performance, showing its dependence on a range of network and session parameters. Our results show that a substantial packet loss can be caused by nonreductive, benign events in the network, such as an addition of a new link. We propose and evaluate an improvement to the standard PIM–SM recovery procedure aimed to reduce the packet loss caused by the benign events. Our evaluation shows that the data loss caused by these events can be significantly decreased regardless of the topology and session parameters. 相似文献
