From tunneling to photoemission: correlating two spaces
Correlating the data measured by tunneling and photoemission spectroscopies
is a long-standing problem in condensed matter physics. The quasiparticle
interference, recently discovered in high-Tc cuprates, reveals a possibility to
solve this problem. Application of modern phase retrieval algorithms to Fourier
transformed tunneling data allows to recover the distribution of the
quasiparticle spectral weight in the reciprocal space of solids measured
directly by photoemission. This opens a direct way to unify these two powerful
techniques and may help to solve a number of problems related with space/time
inhomogeneities predicted in strongly correlated electron systems.Comment: more info at http://www.imp.kiev.ua/~kord/AC-ARPES/index.htm
Preparation of Kaolin Composites and Its Adsorption for Sb(â…¢)
Antimony is an important element in the production of flame retardants and semiconductor materials. In the process of antimony mining, it may cause local environmental pollution, which has adverse effects on human health, and the development of economical and efficient adsorbents to remove antimony from wastewater has become a hot research topic. In this paper, the hydrothermal synthesis method was adopted, and purified Kaolin was selected as the carrier, potassium permanganate, manganese chloride and ferric chloride are the metal sources, urea is the precipitant, and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate is the structure guide agent. Under the conditions of 5% mass fraction of dispersant, loading temperature of 140 ℃, reaction time of 8 h, mass ratio of iron to manganese of 1.84:1, and mass of precipitant of 0.9 g, the composites prepared were effective in adsorbing the Sb(Ⅲ) from the wastewater. The optimum adsorption efficiency of the prepared composites on Sb(Ⅲ) is 92.83%, which showed excellent adsorption performance
Multi-Level Firing with Spiking DS-ResNet: Enabling Better and Deeper Directly-Trained Spiking Neural Networks
Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are bio-inspired neural networks with
asynchronous discrete and sparse characteristics, which have increasingly
manifested their superiority in low energy consumption. Recent research is
devoted to utilizing spatio-temporal information to directly train SNNs by
backpropagation. However, the binary and non-differentiable properties of spike
activities force directly trained SNNs to suffer from serious gradient
vanishing and network degradation, which greatly limits the performance of
directly trained SNNs and prevents them from going deeper. In this paper, we
propose a multi-level firing (MLF) method based on the existing spatio-temporal
back propagation (STBP) method, and spiking dormant-suppressed residual network
(spiking DS-ResNet). MLF enables more efficient gradient propagation and the
incremental expression ability of the neurons. Spiking DS-ResNet can
efficiently perform identity mapping of discrete spikes, as well as provide a
more suitable connection for gradient propagation in deep SNNs. With the
proposed method, our model achieves superior performances on a non-neuromorphic
dataset and two neuromorphic datasets with much fewer trainable parameters and
demonstrates the great ability to combat the gradient vanishing and degradation
problem in deep SNNs.Comment: Accepted by the Thirty-First International Joint Conference on

Small Josephson current and product deduced by means of measurement for an inhomogeneous superconductor: Extension of the Ambegaokar - Baratoff theory
For an inhomogeneous high-T_c superconductor, band-filling dependence of
Josephson current and Josephson product is deduced at T=0 K by means of
measurement; this is an extension of Ambegaokar-Baratoff Josephson current and
product. The observed Josephson current, J_{obs}, is given by
J_{obs}={\rho}J_i, where 0<\rho<=1 is band filling (or local density). When
\rho=1, J_{obs} = J_i is the intrinsic supercurrent occurring by Cooper pair.
When 0<\rho<1, J_{obs} is an average of J_i over the measurement region and is
the effect of measurement. The observed Ambegaokar-Baratoff Josephson product,
based on the s-wave theory, is given by J_{obs}R_n
=({\pi}/{2})(\rho\triangle_i), where \triangle_i is the intrinsic
superconducting gap and small, which results in small Josephson products
observed by the experiments. The intrinsic gap, 4<{\triangle_i}<10 meV, is
analyzed from the Josephson-product data of BSCCO. In addition, the
triple-{\pi}-junction experiments, observing the half-flux quantum ({\Phi_0}/2)
as evidence of d-wave symmetry, are discussed by using means of measurement.
Comments on a flux trap of the magnetic modulation experiment using Pb-YBCO dc
SQUIDs are also given. Author's thought is given on the angle dependence of
measured in whisker.Comment: 4 pages, no figur
A 39-GHz Doherty-Like Power Amplifier with 22-dBm Output Power and 21% Power-Added Efficiency at 6-dB Power Back-Off

This is the accepted manuscript version of a conference paper which has been published in final form at https://doi.org/10.1109/JETCAS.2024.3351075The design of a Doherty-like power amplifier for millimetre-wave (mm-wave) applications is presented in this work. The designed power amplifier employs a novel symmetrical loadmodulated balanced amplifier (S-LMBA) architecture. This design is advantageous in minimizing the undesired impedance interaction often encountered in the classic LMBA approach. Such interactions are typically due to the use of a non-50 Ω load at the isolation port of the output quadrature coupler. Moreover, magnitude and phase control networks are carefully designed to generate the specific magnitude and phase information for the designed S-LMBA. To demonstrate the proposed ideas, the SLMBA is fabricated in a 45-nm CMOS SOI technology. At 39 GHz, a 22.1 dBm saturated output power (Psat) with a maximum poweradded efficiency (PAE) of 25.7% is achieved. In addition, 1.68 times drain efficiency enhancement is obtained over an ideal Class-B operation, when the designed S-LMBA is operated at 6 dB power back-off. An average output power of 13.1 dBm with a PAE of 14.4% at an error vector magnitude (EVMrms) above -22.5 dB and adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR) of -23 dBc is also achieved, when a 200 MHz single carrier 64-quadratureamplitude- modulation (QAM) signal is used. Including all testing pads, the footprint of the designed S-LMBA is only 1.56 mm2.Peer reviewe
Theoretical analysis and numerical approximation for the stochastic thermal quasi-geostrophic model
This paper investigates the mathematical properties of a stochastic version
of the balanced 2D thermal quasigeostrophic (TQG) model of potential vorticity
dynamics. This stochastic TQG model is intended as a basis for parametrisation
of the dynamical creation of unresolved degrees of freedom in computational
simulations of upper ocean dynamics when horizontal buoyancy gradients and
bathymetry affect the dynamics, particularly at the submesoscale (250m-10km).
Specifically, we have chosen the SALT (Stochastic Advection by Lie Transport)
algorithm introduced in [25] and applied in [11,12] as our modelling approach.
The SALT approach preserves the Kelvin circulation theorem and an infinite
family of integral conservation laws for TQG. The goal of the SALT algorithm is
to quantify the uncertainty in the process of up-scaling, or coarse-graining of
either observed or synthetic data at fine scales, for use in computational
simulations at coarser scales. The present work provides a rigorous
mathematical analysis of the solution properties of the thermal
quasigeostrophic (TQG) equations with stochastic advection by Lie transport
(SALT) [27,28].Comment: 38 page
Low-Frequency Optical Conductivity in Inhomogeneous d-wave Superconductors
Motivated by the recent optical conductivity experiments on
Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+delta} films, we examine the possible origin of
low-frequency dissipation in the superconducting state. In the presence of
spatial inhomogeneity of the local phase stiffness rho_s, it is shown that some
spectral weight is removed from omega=0 to finite frequencies and contribute to
dissipation. A case where both rho_s and the local normal fluid density are
inhomogeneous is also considered. We find an enhanced dissipation at low
frequency if the two variations are anti-correlated.Comment: To appear in Phys. Rev.
