波形转换-速率对双稳态胆甾相液晶显示的影响

由于驱动双稳态胆甾相液晶显示所需的典型峰—峰电压比STN-LCD的高2～3倍,因此,其瞬态电流可能非常大,以致会损坏大多数半导体驱动器。为了减小最大转变电流,除了降低峰值电压外,还应限制电压转换时间。在本文,我们研究了转换-速率对最大输出电流、平均功率和动态光学响应的影响。根据电路理论,我们获得了实验和理论计算结果之间很好的符合。优化设置可以溶入我们的驱动方案中,使得低电压和低电流可以满足大规模集成(VLSI)的要求。

Electromagnetic emanation exploration in FPGA-based digital design

As semiconductor technologies have been shrinking,the speed of circuits,integration density,and the number of I/O interfaces have been significantly increasing.As a consequence,electromagnetic emanation(EME)becomes a critical issue in digital system designs.Electronic devices must meet electromagnetic compatibility(EMC)requirements to ensure that they operate properly,and safely without interference.I/O buffers consume high currents when they operate.The bonding wires,and lead frames are long enough to play as efficient antennas to radiate electromagnetic interference(EMI).Therefore,I/O switching activities significantly contribute to the EMI.In this paper,we evaluate and analyze the impact of I/O switching activities on the EME.We will change the circuit configurations such as the supply voltage for I/O banks,their switching frequency,driving current,and slew rate.Additionally,a trade-off between the switching frequencies and the number of simultaneous switching outputs(SSOs)is also considered in terms of EME.Moreover,we evaluate the electromagnetic emissions that are associated with the different I/O switching patterns.The results show that the electromagnetic emissions associated I/O switching activities depend strongly on their operating parameters and configurations.All the circuit implementations and measurements are carried out on a Xilinx Spartan-3 FPGA.

Converted wave AVO inversion for average velocity ratio and shear wave reflection coefficient

Based on the empirical Gardner equation describing the relationship between density and compressional wave velocity, the converted wave reflection coefficient extrema attributes for AVO analysis are proposed and the relations between the extrema position and amplitude, average velocity ratio across the interface, and shear wave reflection coefficient are derived. The extrema position is a monotonically decreasing function of average velocity ratio, and the extrema amplitude is a function of average velocity ratio and shear wave reflection coefficient. For theoretical models, the average velocity ratio and shear wave reflection coefficient are inverted from the extrema position and amplitude obtained from fitting a power function to converted wave AVO curves. Shear wave reflection coefficient sections have clearer physical meaning than conventional converted wave stacked sections and establish the theoretical foundation for geological structural interpretation and event correlation. ＂The method of inverting average velocity ratio and shear wave reflection coefficient from the extrema position and amplitude obtained from fitting a power function is applied to real CCP gathers. The inverted average velocity ratios are consistent with those computed from compressional and shear wave well logs.

A Study on Photosynthetic Physiological Characteristics of Six Rare and Endangered Species

The parameters of gas exchange and chlorophyl fluorescence in leaves of six rare and endangered species Neolitsea sericea, Cinnamomum japonicum var. cheni , Sinojackia microcarpa, Discocleidion glabrum var. trichocarpum, Parrotia sub-aequalis, Cercidiphyl um japonicum were measured in fields. The results showed that there were significant differences in photosynthetic capacity, intrinsic water use effi-ciency （WUEi ）, the efficiency of primary conversion of light energy of PSⅡ and its potential activity, the quantum yield of PSⅡ electron transport, and the potential ca-pacity of heat dissipation among the six species. However, there was no significant difference in WUE. The highest values of net photosynthetic rate （Pn）, transpiration rate （Tr） and stomatal conductance （gs） occurred in D. glabrum var. trichocarpum and the lowest in S. microcarpa. On the contrary, D. glabrum var. trichocarpum had the lowest WUE, intrinsic water use efficiency （WUEi ） and S. microcarpa had the highest. The results indicated that D. glabrum var. trichocarpum had higher photo-synthetic capacity and poorer WUE, while S. microcarpa had lower photosynthetic capacity and greater WUE. Furthermore, the mean values of maximal fluorescence （Fm）, potential efficiency of primary conversion of light energy of PSⅡ （Fv/Fm）,ΦPSⅡ, actual efficiency of primary conversion of light energy of PSⅡ （F′v/F′m） and non-photochemical quenching coefficient （NPQ） were the highest in S. micro-carpa, indicating that its PSⅡ had higher capacity of heat dissipation and could prevent photosynthetic apparatus from damage by excessive light energy. Correlation analysis showed that there were significant correlations among photosynthetic physi-ological parameters. However, the initial fluorescence （Fo） was not significantly cor-related with any other parameters. This study also revealed the extremely significant positive correlations between Pn and Tr, gs, apparent quantum yield （AQY）, be-tween Tr and gs, between light saturation point （LSP） and AQY, between Fv/Fm and Fm, between ΦPSⅡ and photochemical quenching coefficient （qp）, between Tr, gs and LSP, AQY. However, WUEi was significantly negatively correlated with Tr, gs, Pn, LSP and AQY.

Continuously Variable Transmission Using Quadric Crank Chains and Ratchets

This paper describes the CVT （continuously variable transmission）. Generally, CVTs are classified as belt-type or toroidal CVTs, and each CVT is basically composed of two parts such as the V-belt and pulley, or friction wheels. In the belt-type CVT, the pulley is driven by a belt placed between two （left and right） circle boards, while in the toroidal CVT, two rollers rotate under the condition being pushed by strong compression power. Since these conventional CVTs use friction force, their energy transfer efficiency might be inferior. Furthermore, although these CVTs require precise structures and processing, they make noise, and are not durable. Consequently, we propose a new structural CVT in this paper.

Catalytic effect of carbon-based electrode materials in energy storage devices

The catalytic effect of electrode materials is one of the most crucial factors for achieving efficient electrochemical energy conversion and storage.Carbon-based metal composites were widely synthesized and employed as electrode materials because of their inherited outstanding properties.Usually,electrode materials can provide a higher capacity than the anticipated values,even beyond the theoretical limit.The origin of the extra capacity has not yet been explained accurately,and its formation mechanism is still ambiguous.Herein,we first summarized the current research progress and drawbacks in energy storage devices(ESDs),and elaborated the role of catalytic effect in enhancing the performance of ESDs as follows:promoting the evolution of the solid electrolyte interphase(SEI),accelerating the reversible conversion of discharge/charge products,and improving the conversion speed of the intermediate and the utilization rate of the active materials,thereby avoiding the shuttling effect.Additionally,a particular focus was placed on the interaction between the catalytic effect and energy storage performance in order to highlight the efficacy and role of the catalytic effect.We hope that this review could provide innovative ideas for designing the electrode materials with an efficient catalytic effect for ESDs to promote the development of this research field.

Time-stretch analog-to-digital conversion with a photonic crystal fiber

All-optical analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) has been extensively researched to break through the inherently limited operating speed of electronic devices. In this paper, we use the photonic crystal fiber (PCF) for time-stretch (TS) analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion system through generating low noise, linear chirp distribution and flat super-continuum (SC). Based on the radio frequency (RF) analog signal modulated to the linearly chirped super-continuum, the large-dispersion photonic crystal fiber is used for time-domain stretching.
