In the "Asqtad" improved staggered fermion formulation, we measure full ππ four-point correlators for isospin I = 0 and 2 channels, and use chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading order to extrapolate our simulation results. Extrapolating to the physical pion mass yields scattering lengths as mna01=2 = -0.041 6(2) and mna01= 0.186(2) for isospin I = 2 and 0 channels, respectively. Our lattice simulation for ππ scattering length in I = 0 channel is an exploratory study, where we include the disconnected contribution, and our preliminary result is near to its experimental value. These simulations are carried out with MILC 2 + 1 flavor gauge configurations at lattice spacing a ≈0.15 fm.展开更多

The two theoretical methods are also discussed. Meanwhile, we demonstrate that LEDs can achieve high extraction efficiency by employing photonic crystal as diffraction grating. PCs with square lattice of cylindrical unit cells are fabricated in GaN layer of GaN-based blue LED. We present a theoretical discussion on the extraction efficiency of PC-LED, which relies on the effective medium theory and transmission matrix method to investigate the effect of lattice constant. The results show that the extraction efficiency of the high performance LEDs can achieve 61.8% when the lattice constant is 270 nm.展开更多
