In-plane optical anisotropy in asymmetric Si1-xGex/Si/Si1-yGey superlattices
A trilayer asymmetric superlattice, Si/Si1-xGex/Si1-yGey, is proposed, in which the broken inversion symmetry makes the microstructure optically biaxial; in particular, inequivalent interfaces in this heterostructure may cause a polarization ratio as large as about 2.5% in the absence of an external field. The electronic structure and absorption spectra for two types of trilayer superlattice with different parameters are calculated by use of the tight-binding model; the findings indicate the importance of the carrier confinement for the anisotropy value. The effect of external electric field on the optical anisotropy for such structures has also been discussed, and a Pockels coefficient of 10-9 cm V-1 estimated
Observation of a ppb mass threshoud enhancement in \psi^\prime\to\pi^+\pi^-J/\psi(J/\psi\to\gamma p\bar{p}) decay
The decay channel
is studied using a sample of events collected
by the BESIII experiment at BEPCII. A strong enhancement at threshold is
observed in the invariant mass spectrum. The enhancement can be fit
with an -wave Breit-Wigner resonance function with a resulting peak mass of
and a
narrow width that is at the 90% confidence level.
These results are consistent with published BESII results. These mass and width
values do not match with those of any known meson resonance.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, submitted to Chinese Physics
In-situ FT-IR study of high pressure syngas conversion over Rh/SiO2 and Rh/NaY catalysts
High pressure syngas [V(CO) : V(H-2) = 1] conversion over unpromoted Rh catalyst supported on silica and zeolite NaY were studied at 250 degreesC with an in-situ. IR cell that avoided contamination of iron carbonyls. Change of the syngas pressure produced no effect on the IR spectrum of Rh/SiO2; bridged and linear CO on Rh clusters were the only detectable surface species under 0.1 to 1.0 MPa of flowing syngas. In addition to the bridged and linear CO species, two types of dicarbonyls [Rh(I)(CO)(2)] and a small amount of Rh-6(CO)(16) were formed when Rh/NaY was exposed to 0.1 MPa syngas. Increasing of the syngas pressure to 1. 0 MPa over Rh/NaY resulted in transformation of the dicarbonyls to Rh-6(CO)(16) and probably a mononuclear medium carbonyl featuring an absorption 2042 cm(-1). The detectable reaction products adsorbed on Rh/NaY catalyst under 1.0 MPa were monodentate and bidentate acetates. These surface species were maintained even after releasing the syngas pressure back to 0.1 MPa. Thus, a remarkable difference exists in the effect of syngas pressure on the strtucture of Rh catalysts: reconstruction of Rh catalyst under high pressure of syngas occurs in zeolite NaY but not on silica. Reactivity of the adsorbed surface species toward hydrogen after the catalyst reconstruction suggests that the monodentate acetate groups are responsible for the selective formation of acetic acid from syngas over the Rh/NaY catalyst
Improved gradient descent algorithms for time-delay rational state-space systems: Intelligent search method and momentum method
This study proposes two improved gradient descent parameter estimation algorithms for rational state-space models with time-delay. These two algorithms, based on intelligent search method and momentum method, can simultaneously estimate the time-delay and parameters without the matrix eigenvalue calculation in each iteration. Compared with the traditional gradient descent algorithm, the improved algorithms come with two advantages: having quicker convergence rates and less computational efforts, particularly meaningful for those large scale systems. A simulated example is selected to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithms
Search for ψ(3770)→ charmless final states involving η or π0 mesons
We search for ψ(3770) → π+π-η, K+K-η, pp̄η, ρ0π+π-η, K+K-π+π-η, pp̄π+π-η, pp̄K+K-η and pp̄K+K- π0 using data samples of 17.3 and 6.5 pb-1 integrated luminosities recorded at the center-of-mass energies of 3.773 and 3.65 GeV, respectively, by the BES-II detector operating at the BEPC collider. We obtain cross section measurements at both energies and upper limits on ψ(3770) decay branching fractions to the final states studied. © © Springer-Verlag / Società Italiana di Fisica 2010.published_or_final_versionSpringer Open Choice, 21 Feb 201
Experimental studies of e + e -→ some charmless processes containing K S0 at √s = 3.773 and 3.65 GeV
We measure the observed cross sections for the charmless processes e + e -→K S0 K - K - K + π ++ c.c., K S0 K - π + η+c.c., K S0 K - π + π + π - η+c.c., K S0 K - K - K + π + η+c.c., K S0 K - K - K + π + π 0+c.c., K S0 K - ρ ++c.c. and K S0 K - π + ρ 0+c.c. We also extract upper limits on the branching fractions for ψ(3770) decays into these final states at 90% C.L. Analyzed data samples correspond to 17.3 pb-1 and 6.5 pb-1 integrated luminosities registered, respectively, at √s = 3.773 and 3.65 GeV, with the BES-II detector at the BEPC collider. © 2009 Springer-Verlag / Società Italiana di Fisica.published_or_final_versionSpringer Open Choice, 21 Feb 201
