Spin-polarized pairing induced by the magnetic field in the Bernal bilayer graphene

Recent experimental findings have demonstrated the occurrence of superconductivity in Bernal bilayer graphene when induced by a magnetic field.In this study,we conduct a theoretical investigation of the potential pairing symmetry within this superconducting system.By developing a theoretical model,we primarily calculate the free energy of the system with p+ip-wave parallel spin pairing,p+ip-wave anti-parallel spin pairing and d+i d-wave pairing symmetry.Our results confirm that the magnetic field is indeed essential for generating the superconductivity.We discover that the p+ip-wave parallel spin pairing leads to a lower free energy for the system.The numerical calculations of the energy band structure,zero-energy spectral function and density of states for each of the three pairing symmetries under consideration show a strong consistency with the free energy results.

Acoustic dipole radiation model for magnetoacoustic tomography with magnetic induction

An acoustic dipole radiation model for magnetoacoustic tomography with magnetic induction （MAT-MI） is pro- posed, based on the analyses of one-dimensional tissue vibration, three-dimensional acoustic dipole radiation and acoustic waveform detection with a planar piston transducer. The collected waveforms provide information about the conductiv- ity boundaries in various vibration intensities and phases due to the acoustic dipole radiation pattern. Combined with the simplified back projection algorithm, the conductivity configuration of the measured layer in terms of shape and size can be reconstructed with obvious border stripes. The numerical simulation is performed for a two-layer cylindrical phantom model and it is also verified by the experimental results of MAT-MI for a tissue-like sample phantom. The proposed model suggests a potential application of conductivity differentiation and provides a universal basis for the further study of conductivity reconstruction for MAT-MI.

Reception pattern influence on magnetoacoustic tomography with magnetic induction

Based on the acoustic radiation theory of a dipole source, the influence of the transducer reception pattern is studied for magnetoacoustic tomography with magnetic induction（MAT-MI）. Numerical studies are conducted to simulate acoustic pressures, waveforms, and reconstructed images with unidirectional, omnidirectional, and strong directional transducers.With the analyses of equivalent and projection sources, the influences of the model dimension and the layer effect are qualitatively analyzed to evaluate the performance of MAT-MI. Three-dimensional simulation studies show that the strong directional transducer with a large radius can reduce the influences of equivalent sources, projection sources, and the layer effect effectively, resulting in enhanced pressure and improved image contrast, which is beneficial for boundary pressure extraction in conductivity reconstruction. The reconstructed conductivity contrast images present the conductivity boundaries as stripes with different contrasts and polarities, representing the values and directions of the conductivity changes of the scanned layer. The favorable results provide solid evidence for transducer selection and suggest potential practical applications of MAT-MI in biomedical imaging.

Effect of Magnetic Field on the Extraction Process of Acetone-Water-Trichloroethane System

In order to investigate the effect of magnetic field on the liquid-liquid extraction, the extraction in the acetone-water-trichloroethane system was studied under magnetic field with different magnetic induction intensity.The results showed that the effect of magnetic field was positive in the extraction process, and the partition coeffi-cient and the yield of acetone increased-with the increasing magnetic induction intensity by 5.16%-8.35% and 1.85%-5.70% respectively. The effect of magnetic field on the extraction was intensified when the temperature became, higher. The experimental data of the partition coefficient of acetone were correlated by the method of least square in terms of a power-law correlation.

Influential Factors on Electromagnetic Properties of Selected 3D Reticulated Ceramics

3D reticulated ceramics (3DRCs) with the composition containing SrFe12O19-SiC-TiO2 were prepared by a replication process with polyurethane sponges as the template in ceramic slurry. The electrical conductivity, dielectric and magnetic parameters of 3D reticulated ceramics (3DRCs) were measured with changes in cell size of the sponges, contents in the slurry and sintering temperature in this paper. Discussions about the influential factors of those parameters were focused on their electrical conductivity. The experimental results indicated that the electrical conductivity of 3DRCs raised with the increase of cell size, SiC/SrO 6Fe2O3 with weight ratio and sintering temperature. X-ray diffractions and SEM were used to investigate the relationship between electrical conductivity and sintering temperature. Deoxidizing reactions of SrO 6Fe2O3 caused the increasing electrical conductivity. The real part of permittivity (ε') and imaginary part of permeability (μ') raised with the increase of electrical conductivity (σ). The imaginary part of permittivity (ε') has a maximum at 10o S/cm with the increase of a, and the real part of permeability (μ') changes slightly with the increase of a. When a is at the range of 10-4 S/cm to 10o S/cm (a semi conductive state), both the imagine part of permittivity and permeability raises with increasing a, therefore, the 3DRCs present their high electromagnetic loss properties.

Simulation research on effect of magnetic nanoparticles on physical process of magneto–acoustic tomography with magnetic induction

Magneto–acoustic tomography with magnetic induction（MAT-MI） is a multiphysics coupled imaging technique that is combined with electrical impedance tomography and ultrasound imaging. In order to study the influence of adding magnetic nanoparticles as a contrast agent for MAT-MI on its physical process, firstly, we analyze and compare the electromagnetic and acoustical properties of MAT-MI theoretically before and after adding magnetic nanoparticles, and then construct a two-dimensional（2 D） planar model. Under the guidance of space-time separation theory, we determine the reasonable simulation conditions and solve the electromagnetic field and sound field physical processes in the two modes by using the finite element method. The magnetic flux density, sound pressure distribution, and related one-dimensional（1 D）, 2 D, and three-dimensional（3 D） images are obtained. Finally, we make a qualitative and quantitative analysis based on the theoretical and simulation results. The research results show that the peak time of the time item separated from the sound source has a corresponding relationship with the peak time of the sound pressure signal. At this moment, MAMPTMI produces larger sound pressure signals, and the sound pressure distribution of the MAMPT-MI is more uniform, which facilitates the detection and completion of sound source reconstruction. The research results may lay the foundation for the MAT-MI of magnetically responsive nanoparticle in subsequent experiments and even clinical applications.

A Magnetic Induction Tomography System for Prospective Industrial Processing Applications

Magnetic induction tomography(MIT) is one of the newest industrial process imaging techniques.Main industrial applications of the MIT imaging are in high conductive flow imaging.However,recently it has been shown that the MIT may be useful for low conductive process imaging.This paper presents a cost effective hardware design for MIT in industrial applications,called Bath-MKI industrial MIT system.The system comprises 8 inductor coils and has the possibility of expansion to 16 coils.The excitation signals and the measured voltages are generated and measured using a LabView based system.Two 16 by 1 multiplexers are used to select between the coils.Measurements,excitation and multiplexing are all controlled by a National Instrument(NI) USB based DAQ:USB-6259 and a signal generator.Using the same electronics,the prototype is tested with two different coil arrays;one is a small scale ferrite core coil and one larger scale air cored coil.Experimental image reconstruction results are shown using both small scale and large scale coil arrays.

Boundary normal pressure-based electrical conductivity reconstruction for magneto–acoustic tomography with magnetic induction

As a kind of multi-physics imaging approach integrating the advantages of electrical impedance tomography and ul- trasound imaging with the improved spatial resolution and image contrast, magneto-acoustic tomography with magnetic induction （MAT-MI） is demonstrated to have the capability of electrical impedance contrast imaging for biological tissues with conductivity differences. By being detected with a strong directional transducer, abrupt pressure change is proved to be generated by the gradient of the induced Lorentz force along the force direction at conductivity boundary. A simplified boundary normal pressure （BNP）-based conductivity reconstruction algorithm is proposed and the formula for conductivity distribution inside the object with the clear physical meaning of pressure derivative, is derived. Numerical simulations of acoustic pressure and conductivity reconstruction are conducted based on a 2-layer eccentric cylindrical phantom model using Hilbert transform. The reconstructed two-dimensional conductivity images accord well with the model, thus success- fully making up the deficiency of only imaging conductivity boundary in traditional MAT-MI. The proposed method is also demonstrated to have a spatial resolution of one wavelength. This study provides a new method of reconstructing accurate electrical conductivity and suggests the potential applications of MAT-MI in imaging biological tissues with conductivity difference.

It is necessary to adopt suitable production conditions and minimize the deterioration involved, and the magnetic property can be recovered by SRA effectively.

Pattern transition and regulation in a subthalamopallidal network under electromagnetic effect

Although the significant roles of magnetic induction and electromagnetic radiation in the neural system have been widely studied,their influence on Parkinson’s disease(PD)has yet to be well explored.By virtue of the magnetic flux variable,this paper studies the transition of firing patterns induced by magnetic induction and the regulation effect of external magnetic radiation on the firing activities of the subthalamopallidal network in basal ganglia.We find:(i)The network reproduces five typical waveforms corresponding to the severity of symptoms:weak cluster,episodic,continuous cluster,episodic,and continuous wave.(ii)Magnetic induction is a double-edged sword for the treatment of PD.Although the increase of magnetic coefficient may lead the physiological firing activity to transfer to pathological firing activity,it also can regulate the pathological intensity firing activity with excessiveβ-band power transferring to the physiological firing pattern with weakβ-band power.(iii)External magnetic radiation could inhibit continuous tremulous firing andβ-band power of subthalamic nucleus(STN),which means the severity of symptoms weakened.Especially,the bi-parameter plane of the regulation region shows that a short pulse period of magnetic radiation and a medium level of pulse percentage can well regulate pathological oscillation.This work helps to understand the firing activity of the subthalamopallidal network under electromagnetic effect.It may also provide insights into the mechanisms behind the electromagnetic therapy of PD-related firing activity.

A system for the investigation of the magnetic properties of materials under high pressure is fabricated based on diamond anvil cell （DAC） technology. The system is designed with an improved coil arranged around the diamond of a non-magnetic DAC. Using this system, the magnetic transition of ferromagnetic （Fe） sample under increasing pressure can be observed. We successfully obtain the evolution of magnetic properties as a function of applied pressure reaching 26.9 GPa in the Fe sample. A magnetic transition is observed at approximately 13 GPa, which is consistent with the theoretical prediction.

Quantum of the Magnetic Flux Characteristic forExperiments Performed on the Integer and Fractional Quantum Hall Effects

Experimentally the plateaus characteristic for the integer quantum Hall effect is obtained in vicinity of specific values of the magnetic induction. The paper demonstrates that the ratios of these induction values to carrier concentration in the planar crystalline samples approach systematically the quanta of the magnetic flux important for the behavior of superconductors. Moreover, the same quanta can be deduced from the Landau levels theory and their application in the magnetoresistance theory gives results being in accordance with experiments. The quanta of the magnetic flux similar to those for the integer quantum Hall effect can be obtained also for the fractional quantum Hall effect. This holds on condition the experimental ratio of the magnetic flux to carrier concentration is multiplied by the filling factor of the Landau level.

Magnetic Field Induction and Time Intervals of the Electron Transitions Approached in a Classical and Quantum-Mechanical Way

The motion of electron wave packets of a metal is examined classically in the presence of the magnetic field with the aim to calculate the time intervals between two states lying on the same Fermi surface. A lower limiting value of the transition time equal to about 10–18 sec is estimated as an average for the case when the states are lying on the Fermi surface having a spherical shape. Simultaneously, an upper limit for the electron circular frequency in a metal has been also derived. A formal reference of the classical transition time to the time interval entering the energy-time uncertainty relations known in quantum mechanics is obtained.

Ultrafast synthesis of cobalt/carbon nanocomposites by magnetic induction heating for oxygen evolution reaction

Metal/carbon nanocomposites have shown great potential as high-performance,low-cost electrocatalysts owing largely to their unique metal-support interactions.These nanocomposites are typically prepared by conventional pyrolysis that is tedious and energy-intensive.Herein,we report the ultrafast preparation of cobalt/carbon nanocomposites by magnetic induction heating(MIH)of metal organic frameworks within seconds under an inert atmosphere.The resulting samples consist of cobalt nanoparticles encapsulated within defective carbon shells,and effectively catalyze oxygen evolution reaction(OER)in alkaline media.Among the series,the sample prepared at 400 A for 10 s exhibits the best OER performance,needing a low overpotential of+308 mV to reach the current density of 10 mA cm^(−2),along with excellent stability,and even outperforms commercial RuO_(2) at high overpotentials.This is ascribed to the charge transfer between the carbon scaffold and metal nanoparticles.Operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements show that the electrochemically produced CoOOH species is responsible for the high electrocatalytic performance.The results highlight the unique potential of MIH in the development of effective nanocomposite catalysts for electrochemical energy technologies.

Magnetoacoustic position imaging for liquid metal in animal interstitial structure

Magnetoacoustic tomography with magnetic induction(MAT-MI),as a new kind of in-vivo imaging method,has potential application value in interstitial fluid research.In this paper,we propose the application of MAT-MI with liquid metal serving as a tracer of the interstitial structure to study its fluid behavior,and use it to implement the positional imaging of the spatial distribution of liquid metal.Owing to the particularity of liquid metal magnetoacoustic pressure(MAP)signals,we propose an envelope analysis method to extract the rising edge of the amplitude envelope of the detected waveform as effective position data.And for the first time,we propose the method of superpositing pixel matrix to achieve the position imaging of liquid metal.Finally,the positional imaging of the liquid metal sample embedded in the gel is achieved to have relatively accurate results.This study provides a method of effectively extracting data and implementing the position imaging for liquid metal in the interstitial structure in the frame of MAT-MI.

Performance Analysis of Multilayer Coil Based MI Waveguide Communication System

In the non-conventional media like underwater and underground,the Radio Frequency(RF)communication technique does not perform well due to large antenna size requirement and high path loss.In such media,magnetic induction(MI)communication technique is very promising due to small coil size and constant channel behavior.Unlike the RF technique,the communication range in MI technique is relatively less.To enhance this range,a waveguide technique is already brought in practice.This technique employs single layer coils to enhance the performance of MI waveguide.To further enhance the system functioning,in this paper,we investigated the performance of multi-layer coil(MLC)antenna based MI waveguide communication system in terms of transmission range,path loss,bit error rate(BER)and bandwidth.Besides,the system performance is quantitatively evaluated in three different non-conventional media viz.,dry soil,fresh water and wet soil.As compared with the single layer counterpart,the MLC system shows a significant improvement in transmission range,BER even in loosely coupled scenarios and shows a corresponding reduction in path loss.However,the bandwidth is observed to be low(<1 KHz).In this analysis,the eddy current effects and parasitic capacitance are compared for single and multilayer coils.It is observed that the proposed system performs better in dry soil medium due to less medium conductivity.
