Maximizing band gaps in two-dimensional photonic crystals in square lattices.

Journal of the Optical Society of America. A, Optics, image science, and vision

Cheng XL, Yang J.
PMID: 24322930
J Opt Soc Am A Opt Image Sci Vis. 2013 Nov 01;30(11):2314-9. doi: 10.1364/JOSAA.30.002314.

This paper is devoted to a numerical algorithm for the maximization of band gaps in two-dimensional photonic crystals in square lattices. We first apply the finite element method to solve the eigenvalue problem, then use the piecewise constant level...

BACKGROUND: Recently, Mycobacterial Interspersed Repetitive Unit (MIRU) was supposed to be associated with drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), but whether the association exists actually in local strains in China was still unknown. This research was conducted to...

Optimization of beam quality for photon-counting spectral computed tomography in head imaging: simulation study.

Journal of medical imaging (Bellingham, Wash.)

Head computed tomography (CT) plays an important role in the comprehensive evaluation of acute stroke. Photon-counting spectral detectors, as promising candidates for use in the next generation of x-ray CT systems, allow for assigning more weight to low-energy x-rays...

A scalable and continuous-upgradable optical wireless and wired convergent access network.

Optics express

Sung JY, Cheng KT, Chow CW, Yeh CH, Pan CL.
PMID: 24921473
Opt Express. 2014 Jun 02;22(11):12779-84. doi: 10.1364/OE.22.012779.

In this work, a scalable and continuous upgradable convergent optical access network is proposed. By using a multi-wavelength coherent comb source and a programmable waveshaper at the central office (CO), optical millimeter-wave (mm-wave) signals of different frequencies (from baseband...

Variational Implicit Solvation with Poisson-Boltzmann Theory.

Journal of chemical theory and computation

Zhou S, Cheng LT, Dzubiella J, Li B, McCammon JA.
PMID: 24803864
J Chem Theory Comput. 2014 Apr 08;10(4):1454-1467. doi: 10.1021/ct401058w. Epub 2014 Feb 21.

We incorporate the Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) theory of electrostatics into our variational implicit-solvent model (VISM) for the solvation of charged molecules in an aqueous solvent. In order to numerically relax the VISM free-energy functional by our level-set method, we develop...

Interactions between solitons and other nonlinear Schrödinger waves.

Physical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics

Cheng XP, Lou SY, Chen CL, Tang XY.
PMID: 24827358
Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2014 Apr;89(4):043202. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.89.043202. Epub 2014 Apr 30.

The nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation is widely used in natural science. Various nonlinear excitations of the NLS equation have been found by many methods. However, except for the soliton-soliton interactions, it is very difficult to find interaction solutions between...

Local difference binary for ultrafast and distinctive feature description.

IEEE transactions on pattern analysis and machine intelligence

Yang X, Cheng KT.
PMID: 24231876
IEEE Trans Pattern Anal Mach Intell. 2014 Jan;36(1):188-94. doi: 10.1109/TPAMI.2013.150.

The efficiency and quality of a feature descriptor are critical to the user experience of many computer vision applications. However, the existing descriptors are either too computationally expensive to achieve real-time performance, or not sufficiently distinctive to identify correct...

Lanthanide-doped NaGdF4 core-shell nanoparticles for non-contact self-referencing temperature sensors.

Nanoscale

Zheng S, Chen W, Tan D, Zhou J, Guo Q, Jiang W, Xu C, Liu X, Qiu J.
PMID: 24769587
Nanoscale. 2014 Jun 07;6(11):5675-9. doi: 10.1039/c4nr00432a. Epub 2014 Apr 25.

We report that non-contact self-referencing temperature sensors can be realized with the use of core-shell nanostructures. These lanthanide-based nanothermometers (NaGdF4:Yb(3+)/Tm(3+)@Tb(3+)/Eu(3+)) exhibit higher sensitivity in a wide range from 125 to 300 K based on two emissions of Tb(3+) at...

There is a need to find a comprehensive approach focusing on the conflicts between economical growth and environmental protection. Chinese scholars advocate a comprehensive ecosystem viewpoint named social-economic-natural complex ecosystem(SENCE). The kernel of the concept lies in the hierarchical...
