Optimal PN sequence design for quasisynchronous CDMA communicationsystems

Direct sequence (DS) code-division multiple-access (CDMA) is a modulation and multiple access technique currently being implemented in digital cellular mobile radio communication systems. The conventional quasisynchronous (QS) DS-CDMA communication system is generalized, and the problem of optimal spreading pseudonoise (PN) sequence design for new QS DS-CDMA communication systems is formulated. The classes of optimal PN sequences which have good pseudo-randomness and very small cross-correlation values for some range of offsets are designed by using a matrix-based approach. In contrast to the case of the other sequences, the optimal PN sequences produce small multiple-access interference (MAI) which is not affected by the number of users if there are sufficiently large number of users in the link. The new results are compared with the commonly used PN sequences to prove the superiority of our designed sequences, and the system performance of the QS-CDMA systems using different PN sequences are also evaluated

Versatile Antibacterial Materials: An Emerging Arsenal for Combatting Bacterial Pathogens

Antibacterial materials that prevent bacterial infections and mitigate bacterial virulence have attracted great scientific interests. In recent decades, the bactericidal polymers have been presented as promising candidates to combat bacterial pathogens, mainly based on the construction of bactericidal cationic polymers, functionalization with biocidal agents, and formation of bacterial‐repelling layers. However, these established strategies have inherent disadvantages because they often overlook important features such as their biocompatibility and biosafety, especially for biomedical applications. In recent years, many efforts have been made focusing on the development of multifunctional antibacterial materials to meet the elaborate requirements for medical devices and public hygiene products. Herein the recent advances in developing multifunctional materials for their antibacterial activities together with other functions including “kill‐and‐release” capability, hemocompatibility, cell proliferation promoting properties, and coagulation promoting ability for wound dressing are highlighted. In addition, the outlooks on the remaining challenges that should be addressed in the field of multifunctional antibacterial materials are also described.     

Modulating Blue Phosphorene by Synergetic Codoping: Indirect to Direct Gap Transition and Strong Bandgap Bowing

The structural and electronic properties of synergistically modified blue phosphorene (BP) is investigated. The inversion and threefold rotational symmetries of BP are broken. The codoping of group IV and VI impurities can turn monolayer BP into direct bandgap semiconductors. The underlying physical mechanism is that group IV and VI impurities tailor the valence band maximum and conduction band minimum, respectively, and move them to Γ. All the bandgaps of monolayer, nanoribbons, and quantum dots of BP can be modulated in a wide range, and the strong bandgap bowing is found. In addition, the Coulomb interactions between the screened impurities are revealed. Lower formation energies indicate the fabricating practicability of synergeticly modified BP. Spin–orbit coupling (SOC) can also be tuned by the introduction of impurities.     

A 5 mW and 5% efficiency 210 GHz InP-based heterostructure barrier varactor quintupler

This letter reviews the design, construction, and measurement of a 210 GHz heterostructure barrier varactor frequency quintupler. The quintupler utilizes planar heterostructure barrier varactors (HBVs) based on the InGaAs/InAlAs/AlAs material system and has produced a measured output power of 5.2 mW with 5.2% conversion efficiency at 210 GHz. This performance is comparable to the state-of-the-art results reported in the literature for HBV frequency triplers operating at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths.

Matrix unit cell scheduler (MUCS) for input-buffered ATM switches

This paper presents a novel matrix unit cell scheduler (MUCS) for input-buffered asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switches. The MUCS concept originates from a heuristic strategy that leads to an optimal solution for cell scheduling. Numerical analysis indicates that input-buffered ATM switches scheduled by MUCS can utilize nearly 100% of the available link bandwidth. A transistor-level MUCS circuit has been designed and verified using HSPICE. The circuit features a regular structure, minimal interconnects, and a low transistor count. HSPICE simulation indicates that using 2-μm CMOS technology, the MUCS circuit can operate at clock frequency of 100 MHz
