Disquiet in the plasma

The metaphor of plasma is taken up to present and discuss movement and engagement by participants in mixed reality installation arts. Two works involving full body video portraits exhibited through large plasma screens in a variety of public settings are covered. Machinic mediations of video realism are considered in terms of embodied interaction in which viewer-participants contribute to the ‘disquiet’ of gendered figuring. Processural, proximal and personal aspects of responsive engagement are discussed. This is extended to performativity that may lead us to critical reflection of our own actions and responses in mixed reality arts.

低温等离子体处理模式对冷藏南美白对虾中假单胞菌的抑菌效果及机理研究

摘 要：目的 探究低温等离子体(cold plasma, CP)处理模式对冷藏南美白对虾中常见荧光假单胞菌(Pseudomonas fluorescens)的抑菌效果及其作用机制。方法 通过CP直接处理和循环处理P. fluorescens,研究了两种处理模式下臭氧含量动态变化对P. fluorescens的生长曲线、细胞活力,生物膜形成、细胞壁、细胞膜完整性和南美白对虾菌落总数及假单胞菌数等指标的影响。结果 两种处理模式在CP处理3 min或3 cycles后,包装内臭氧含量达到最高值,分别为(850±10) mg/m3和(874±20) mg/m3。CP循环处理模式使得臭氧含量随处理循环数递增,因此获得更长的臭氧存在时间从而具有更大的抑菌能力。P. fluorescens生长曲线表明CP处理使得菌体延迟期变长且对数生长期推迟。此外,CP处理后的P. fluorescens细胞活力显著下降(P<0.05),CP-1 min,CP-3 min和CP-3 cycles组的细胞活力分别为33.03%、5.90%和4.82%。同时相比CP-3 min组,CP-3 cycles组的P. fluorescens生物膜OD值下降27.61%。碱性磷酸酶(alkaline phosphatase, AKP)活性和核酸蛋白泄漏量结果表明,细胞壁和细胞膜完整性受损可能是P. fluorescens失活的直接原因。对虾保鲜测试结果证实,贮藏第6 d,CP-3 cycles组虾体中的菌落总数和假单胞菌数相比CP-3 min组分别降低了58.02%和79.54%。结论 CP循环处理模式通过延长对臭氧与对虾的暴露时间,提高了对P. fluorescens的灭活效果,同时还具有更优越的保鲜能力。本研究为开发基于CP技术的新型保鲜技术应用提供了理论参考。 关键词：低温等离子体;荧光假单胞菌;抑菌机制;保鲜     

Performance of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing based M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation in asymmetrical dual-hop mixed RF-FSO transmission system

This paper investigates the performance of a dual-hop mixed relay system with radio frequency (RF) and free-space optics (FSO) communication under the effect of pointing error (PE) and atmospheric turbulence (AT). This paper considers a system where RF and FSO links are cascaded. The RF link is modeled by Nakagami-m fading, and the FSO link is modeled as gamma–gamma (G-G) fading channel. Both the channel models use orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM). The expressions for probability density function, cumulative distribution function, signal-to-noise ratio, and ergodic capacity are derived. The moment generating function (MGF) of fading and the bit error rate (BER) of the OFDM-based M-ary QAM scheme is derived in terms of Meijer's G-function. It has been observed that, in fixed gain relay systems, the modulation scheme's BER is dominated by the SNR of the RF link. While in a variable gain relay system, the turbulence conditions of the FSO system affect the SNR and the BER of the modulation method. The feasibility of heterodyne detection and intensity modulation direct detection (IM/DD) is analyzed in terms of outage probability and ergodic capacity. The results can be used to choose the optimal modulation order and relay system for QAM-OFDM-based optical wireless systems.     

Aluminum phosphate sealing to improve insulation resistance of plasma-sprayed alumina coating

The insulation resistance of conventional atmospheric plasma-sprayed alumina coatings with 10–15% porosity is ～10¹¹ Ω. The presence of pores, lamellae boundaries, and other non-fillings dampens the insulation resistance of the coating. In the present study, aluminum phosphate was used to seal the surface of plasma-sprayed alumina coating and evaluate the effect of sealing on the insulation resistance and its thermal cycling response. Sealing was carried out with three concentrations of sealant (P/Al molar ratio of 3, 10, and 15). Characterization by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy revealed the primary sealing phase as aluminum metaphosphate and effective sealing of the pores by the aluminum phosphate phases. Insulation resistance is improved by two orders of magnitude after sealing the coated samples. Sealing with P/Al molar ratio 3 exhibited maximum insulation resistance of ～10¹³ Ω at room temperature. Thermal cycling studies between 650°C and 200°C on the sealed samples showed deterioration in thermal cycling life after sealing.     

The Electrochemical Response of Single Crystalline Copper Nanowires to Atmospheric Air and Aqueous Solution

In this paper, single crystalline copper nanowires (CuNWs) have been electrochemically grown through anodic aluminum oxide template. The environmental stability of the as‐obtained CuNWs in both 40% relative humidity (RH) atmosphere and 0.1 m NaOH aqueous solution has been subsequently studied. In 40% RH atmosphere, a uniform compact Cu₂O layer is formed as a function of exposure time following the logarithmic law and epitaxially covers the CuNW surfaces. It is also found that the oxide layers on CuNWs are sequentially grown when subjected to the cyclic voltammetry measurement in 0.1 m NaOH solution. An epitaxially homogeneous Cu₂O layer is initially formed over the surface of the CuNW substrates by solid‐state reaction (SSR). Subsequently, the conversion of Cu₂O into epitaxial CuO based on the SSR takes place with the increase of applied potential. This CuO layer is partially dissolved in the solution forming Cu(OH)₂, which then redeposited on the CuNW surfaces (i.e., dissolution‐redeposition (DR) process) giving rise to a mixed polycrystalline CuO/Cu(OH)₂ layer. The further increase of applied potential allows the complete oxidation of Cu₂O into CuO to form a dual‐layer structure (i.e., CuO inner layer and Cu(OH)₂ outer layer) with random orientations through an enhanced DR process.     

金刚石自支撑膜的高温红外透过性能

由于金刚石具有低吸收和优异的力学与导热性能使其成为长波(8~12μm)红外光学窗口材料的重要选择。对于许多极端条件的应用,化学气相沉积(CVD)金刚石自支撑膜的高温光学性质至关重要。应用直流电弧等离子喷射法制备光学级金刚石自支撑膜进行变化温度的红外光学透过性能研究,采用光学显微镜、X射线衍射、激光拉曼和傅里叶变换红外-拉曼光谱仪检测CVD金刚石膜的表面形貌、结构特征和红外光学性能。结果表明:在27℃时金刚石膜长波红外8~12μm之间的平均透过率达到65.95%,在500℃时8~12μm处的平均透过率为52.5%。透过率下降可分为3个阶段。对应于透过率随温度的下降,金刚石膜的吸收系数随温度的升高而增加。金刚石自支撑膜表面状态的变化,对金刚石膜光学性能的影响显著大于内部结构的影响。
