Estimation of optical power and heat-dissipation coefficient for the photo-electro-thermal theory for LED systems
With the use of wall-plug efficiency, estimation techniques for the optical power and heat-dissipation coefficient of LEDs are introduced in this paper to enrich the photo-electro-thermal theory, which has provided a framework for analyzing LED systems. The estimation methods consist of simple procedures for optical and electrical power measurements, which are easy for LED device manufacturers and system designers to follow. The extended theory has been tested with several types of LED devices, with reasonably good agreements between theoretical and practical results. © 2011 IEEE.published_or_final_versio

Hydrostatic pressure induced Dirac semimetal in black phosphorus
Motivated by recent experimental observation of an hydrostatic pressure
induced transition from semiconductor to semimetal in black phosphorus [Chen et
al. in arXiv:1504.00125], we present the first principles calculation on the
pressure effect of the electronic structures of black phosphorus. It is found
that the band crossover and reversal at the Z point occur around the critical
pressure Pc1=1.23 Gpa, and the band inversion evolves into 4 twofold-degenerate
Dirac cones around the Z point, suggesting a 3D Dirac semimetal. With further
increasing pressure the Dirac cones in the Gamma-Z line move toward the Gamma
point and evolve into two hole-type Fermi pockets, and those in the Z-M lines
move toward the M point and evolve into 2 hole-type Fermi pockets up to P=4.0
Gpa. It demonstrates clearly that the Lifshitz transition occurs at
from semiconductor to 3D Dirac semimetal protected by the nonsymmorphic space
symmetry of bulk. This suggests the bright perspective of black phosphorus for
optoelectronic and electronic devices due to its easy modulation by pressure.Comment: 7 pages, 9 figures, and 2 table
Stabilized conforming nodal integration: Exactness and variational justification
In most Galerkin mesh-free methods, background integration cells partitioning the problem domain are required to evaluate the weak form. It is therefore worthwhile to consider these methods using the notions of domain decomposition with the integration cells being the subdomains. Presuming that the analytical solution is admissible in the trial solution, domain and boundary integration exactness, which depend on the orders of the employed trial solution and the required solution exactness, are identified for the strict satisfaction of traction reciprocity and natural boundary condition in the weak form. Unfortunately, trial solutions constructed by many mesh-free approximants contain non-polynomial terms which cannot be exactly integrated by Gaussian quadratures. Recently, stabilized conforming (SC) nodal integration for Galerkin mesh-free methods was proposed and illustrated to be linearly exact. This paper will discuss how linear exactness is ensured and how spurious oscillation encountered by direct nodal integration is suppressed in SC nodal integration from a domain decomposition point of view. Moreover, it will be shown that SC nodal integration can be formulated by the Hellinger-Reissner Principle and thus justified in the classical variational sense. Applications of the method to straight beam, plate and curved beam problems are presented. © 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.postprin

High-level expression, purification, polyclonal antibody preparation against recombinant OprD from Pseudomonas aeruginosa
OprD is a specific porin which can binds imipenem and carbapenems in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. OprD loss plays a central role in mediating carbapenem resistance. Therefore, purification of oprD protein lays a pavement for the study in vivo and in vitro. In our study, the oprD gene was cloned into pQE30 expression vector, in frame with a sequence coding an N-terminal hexahistidine tag to allow purification by Ni2+ column. The recombinant OprD-6His was overproduced in inclusion form in Escherichia coli M15. OprD-6His was purified under denatured conditions using Ni-NTA conjugates. Antiserum against this recombinant OprD-6His protein was prepared in rabbit. Western blot analysis and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were carried out to identify the reaction abilities and sensitivity of anti-OprD-6His polyclonal antibody to purified OprD-6His. Our results indicated that it was induction of E. coli M15 cells with 0.5 mM of isopropylthio-d-galactoside (IPTG) at 33°C for 4 h that the predicted 48 kDa OprD-6His fusion protein was expressed as the form of inclusion bodies with about 55-65 mg of OprD-6His per liter of culture. Western blot showed that recombinant OprD-6His protein could be identified by self-developed anti-OprD-6His polyclonal antibody. Anti-OprD-6His polyclonal antibody was detectable with 1000 times dilution of the original polyclonal antibody solution. In conclusion, higher level expression of OprD was available in the pQE30 expression system at optimal condition. Self-prepared polyclone antibody can effectively detect difference of porin expression in P. aeruginosa with higher sensitivity and specificity.Key words: Pseudomonas aeroginosa; OprD; polyclonal antibody
下地壳及壳慢过渡带化学不均一性 -- 河北汉诺坝地区深源捕虏体元素地球化学证据
河北汉诺坝玄武岩中长英质麻粒岩、镁铁质麻粒岩和辉石岩捕虏体的主量元素和微量元素特征, 反映了下地壳及壳鳗过渡带组成具有高度化学不均一性。不相容元素原始地慢标准化曲线特征的差异表明捕虏体成因复杂。MgO 与不相容元素无或仅有很弱的相关性, 与相容元素的相关性则相对较明显。这些特征反映了下地壳及壳慢过渡带存在较强和多元的混合作用。捕虏体的加权平均值比基于麻粒岩地体资料估算的下地壳平均组成偏基性, 揭示了二者可能的成因差异。The major and trace element data of granulite and pyroxenite xenoliths, which are entrained in Hannuoba basalt Hebei Province, North China, suggest the highly chemical heterogeneity in the lower crust and crust-mantle transitional zone. There is no or only POor linear correlation between MgO and incompatible elements. Whereas a bit remarked correlations are observed between MgO and most compatible elements.The geochemical characteristics suggest that the strong and multiple mixing processes may have Occurred universally both in the lower crust and crust-mantle transitional zone. The weighed average composition of xenoliths shows a more mafic composition of the lower crust than that estimated from granulite data, which may imply the difference in the genesis.published_or_final_versio
Sr, Nd Pb isotopic characteristics of granulite and pyroxenite xenoliths in Hannuoba basalts, Hebei Province, and their implications for geologic processes
Rb-Sr, Sm-Nd and Pb isotopic systematics are reported for granulite and pyroxenite xenoliths in Hannuoba basalts, Hebei Province. The isotopic characteristics of xenoliths suggest t hat they might have formed recently , although there is no strict constraint on the precise age. The decoupling of low Rb/Sr and high [87]Sr/[86]Sr ratios implies the multi-stage evolution history and strong mixing processes. There are close ties between granulite and pyroxenites with different mineral assemblages on the Sr-Nd, Pb-Sr and Pb-Nd correlation figures. The granulite is the common end-member o f the three kinds o f pyroxenite. Combined with the distribution of the xenoliths in space and their isotopic relationships, It is proposed that delamination can be well used to explain the ties.系统研究了河北汉诺坝玄武岩中二辉麻粒岩和辉石岩捕虏体的Sr、Nd、Pb 同位素特征。虽然未确定捕虏体的形成时代, 但同位素特征显示它们可能为较近期( 中生代以来) 形成。低的Rb/Sr 与高 的[87]Sr/[86]Sr 比值的解耦表明捕虏体的形成经历了较强的混合作用。在二元同位素相关图上, 三类具不同矿物组成的辉石岩与二辉麻粒岩有密切关系, 即二辉麻粒岩投点位置是三类辉石岩的共同端点。综合考虑捕虏体的空间分布及其在Sr 、Nd、Pb 同位素协变图上的关系, 可以认为层离作用可较好地解释这些现象。published_or_final_versio
