The ionization spectrum of an ultracold Rydberg atom is acquired in a cesium magneto-optical trap by using the method of pulse field ionization. This denotes nS and nD states in the ionization spectrum and fits the data of energy levels of different Rydberg states to obtain quantum defects of nS and nD states.展开更多

Using an effective approach incorporating quantum defect into the centrifugal term in the Hamiltonian, we reexamine the reported spectrum of the barium Rydberg atom in a magnetic field of 2.89 T [J. Phys. B 28 L537 （1995）]. Our calculation employs B-spline basis expansion and complex coordinate rotation techniques. For single photon absorption from the ground 6s2 to 6snp Rydberg states, the spectrum is not influenced by quantum defects of channels ns and nd. The calculation is in agreement with the experimental observations until the energy reaches E = -60 cm-1. Beyond this energy, closer to the threshold, the calculated and experimental results do not agree with each other. Possible reasons for their discrepancies are discussed. Our study affirms an energy range where the diamagnetic spectrum of the barium atom can be explained thoroughly using a hydrogen model potential.展开更多

A good agreement between theoretical and experimental energy levels was achieved. Below 59198 cm^-1, a total of 85 and 23 new energy levels, respectively, in the J = 1 and J = 2 series, which cannot be measured previously by experiments, are predicted in this work. Based on the calculated admixture coefficients of each channel, interchannel interactions were discussed in detail. The results are helpful to understand the characteristics of configuration interaction among even-parity levels in Sn I.展开更多

The concerned excitation is one-photon transition from the ground state 2s to the highly excited states np with π and σ polarizations respectively. Lithium has a small quantum defect value 0.05 for the np states, and its diamagnetic spectrum is very similar to that of hydrogen in the energy range approaching the ionization limit. However, a careful calculation shows that the spectrum has a significant discrepancy with that of hydrogen when the energy is lower than -70 cm-1. The effect of the quantum defect is also discussed for the Stark spectrum. It is found that the σ transition to the np states in an electric field has a similar behavior to that of hydrogen due to zero interaction with channel ns.展开更多

The results show that strong channel mixings exist for the levels near the 6pnd (3/2)[5/2]2 0 and 6p6d (3/2)[3/2]2 0 pertubers. The five-channel model different from that in literature is used to predict 21 energy positions of 6pnd (1/2)[3/2]2 0 levels and to determine the denotations of all the 6pnd J=2 Rydberg states under 59788 cm?1 for Pb I.展开更多

The proposed method relies on a tuned 2D-Gabor filter and quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization( QPSO) algorithm. The proposed method consists of two main steps:( 1) training and( 2) image inspection. In the image training process,the parameters of the 2D-Gabor filters can be tuned by QPSO algorithm to match with the texture features of a defect-free template. In the inspection process, each sample image under inspection is convoluted with the selected optimized Gabor filter.Then a simple thresholding scheme is applied to generating a binary segmented result. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated by using a standard fabric defects database from Cotton Incorporated. Good experimental results demonstrate the efficiency of proposed method. To further evaluate the performance of the proposed method,a real time test is performed based on an on-line defect detection system. The real time test results further demonstrate the effectiveness, stability and robustness of the proposed method,which is suitable for industrial production.展开更多

Also antibacterial activity based on minimal inhibitory concentration and the growth inhibitory zone (well method) was evaluated. ZnO nanostructures were fabricated by novel hydrolysis sol-gel-hydrothermal process followed with rapid quenching as new technique using glycerine, vegetable fatty esters such as coconut, sunflower and Lauric alcohol ethoxylated as organic templates soluble in eco-friendly nanofluids. The results showed that Bacillus anthracis and Pseudomonas aerogenes were extremely sensitive to treatment with unique ZnO nanostructured. Their growth inhibitory zone presented 30 mm and 25 mm inhibition zone with better inhibitory effect compared to the Gentamicin antibiotic standard. ZnO nanostructures had also been indicated to have a wide range of antibacterial activities against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria especially more effective on (gr+) species using the growth inhibitory zone. We could design and make significant formulations of fatty acids and esters-capped ZnO quantum dots nanofluids which created high promising agents for controlling Anthrax, Staphylococcus epidermidis and their influences in antimicrobial properties with low cost for future.展开更多

Relativistic and mass-polarization effects on the energy are calculated as the first-order perturbation correction. The quantum-electrodynamics correction is also included. The fine structure splittings are determined from the expectation values of spin-orbit and spin-other-orbit interaction operators in the Pauli-Breit approximation. Combining the term energies of lowly excited states obtained with the quantum defects calculated by the single channel quantum defect theory, each of which is a smooth function of energy and approximated by a weakly varying function of energy, the ion potentials of highly excited states （n ≥ 6） are obtained with the semi-empirical iteration method. The results are compared with experimental data in the literature and found to be closely consistent with the regularity.展开更多

The flexible atomic code （FAC） has been adopted for the calculations. Comparisons are made with the experimental data available, showing that the present results for 4 〈 n 〈 6 are more accurate than the previous calculated values. Furthermore, combining the quantum defect theory （QDT） with the transition energies of 2s^22p^62s2p^6np, the quantum defects for 2s2p^6np Rydberg series of Cu^19＋ ion are determined. In addition, the energies of any highly excited states （n 〉 20） for this series can be reliably predicted using the QDT and the given quantum defects. The ionization energies for Cu^19＋ and Cu^20＋ ions are also calculated and they excellently accord with previous experimental and calculated values.展开更多
