As a result, the product of Mrand thickness(i.e., the remanent moment-thickness product, Mrt), a key parameter in magnetic recording for reliable data storing and reading, also decreases dramatically. To overcome this issue, we deposit an ultra-thick granular [Co/Pt]80multilayer with a total thickness of 68 nm on granular SiNxbuffer layer. The Mrt value, Mrto saturation magnetization(Ms) ratio as well as out of plane(OOP) coercivity(Hcoop) are high up to 2.97 memu/cm^(2), 67%, and 1940 Oe(1 Oe = 79.5775 A·m^(-1)),respectively, which is remarkably improved compared with that of continuous [Co/Pt]80multilayers. That is because large amounts of grain boundaries in the granular multilayers can efficiently impede the propagation and expansion of reversed magnetic domains, which is verified by experimental investigations and micromagnetic simulation results. The simulation results also indicate that the value of Mrt, Mr/Msratio, and Hcoopcan be further improved through optimizing the granule size, which can be experimentally realized by manipulating the process parameter of SiNxbuffer layer. This work provides an alternative solution for achieving high Mrt value in ultra-thick Co/Pt multilayers, which is of unneglectable potential in applications of high-density magnetic recording.展开更多

The effective demagnetizing field 4πMeff is found to increase with decreasing tPt and decreasing 1/tco, which can be considered as a result of interplay between the interlayer coupling and a lowdimensional effect. The g factor increases with increasing tpt and decreasing tCo, indicating contribution of spin-polarization of Pt atoms and additional contribution of orbital moment of Co atoms. The in-plane resonance line-width increases with decreasing too and increases with increasing tPt.展开更多

The effects of inserted Ag layer thickness and the number of bilayer repetitions (n) on the structure and magnetic properties of the multilayers were investigated. It was found that the difference between in-plane and out-of-plane coercivities varied with an increase of inserted Ag layer thickness in the [FePt 2 nm/Ag x nm]10 multilayers. The ratio of out-of-plane coercivity to in-plane coercivity reached the maximum value with the Ag layer thickness of 5 nm, indicating that the Ag layer thickness plays an important role in obtaining perpendicular orientation. For the [FePt 2 nm/Ag 5 um]n multilayers, perpendicular orientation is also influenced by n. The maximum value of the ratio of out-of-plane coercivity to in-plane coercivity appeared when n was given as 8. It was found that the [FePt 2 nm/Ag 5 nm]8 had a high perpendicular coercivity of 520 kA/m and a low in-plane one of 88 kA/m, which shows a strong perpendicular anisotropy.展开更多

The effect of MgO layer thickness on the structures and magnetic properties of the FePt/MgO multilayers was investigated. The coercivities and inter-grain interactions of the FePt/MgO films were decreased, yet the degree of (001) texturing drastically increased with the increase in MgO layer thickness when the FePt layer thickness was fixed. Thus, the FePt/MgO films with appropriate coercivities, high perpendicular anisotropy, and weak intergrain interactions were obtained by controlling the MgO layer thickness. Overall, these results indicate that the FePt/MgO nanostructured films are promising candidates for future high-density perpendicular recording media.展开更多

Information dissemination and policy regulation play crucial roles in influencing and amplifying the spread of green behavior across society. To this end, a novel three-layer model in multilayer networks is proposed. In the novel model, the information layer describes green information spreading, the physical contact layer depicts green behavior propagation, and policy regulation is symbolized by an isolated node beneath the two layers. Then, we deduce the green behavior threshold for the three-layer model using the microscopic Markov chain approach. Moreover, subject to some individuals who are more likely to influence others or become green nodes and the limitations of the capacity of policy regulation, an optimal scheme is given that could optimize policy interventions to most effectively prompt green behavior.Subsequently, simulations are performed to validate the preciseness and theoretical results of the new model. It reveals that policy regulation can prompt the prevalence and outbreak of green behavior. Then, the green behavior is more likely to spread and be prevalent in the SF network than in the ER network. Additionally, optimal allocation is highly successful in facilitating the dissemination of green behavior. In practice, the optimal allocation strategy could prioritize interventions at critical nodes or regions, such as highly connected urban areas, where the impact of green behavior promotion would be most significant.展开更多

The effects of prepared condition on perpendicular magneticanisotropy were investigated. The results show that the thickness of Pt under-layer has a greateffect on the microstructure and perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of CoCr/Pt bilayers and(CoCr/Pt)_(20) multilayers. When the thickness of Pt underlayer increases, Pt(lll) and CoCr(002)peaks of both CoCr/Pt bilayers and (CoCr/Pt)_(20) multilayers increase and the bilayer periodicityof the multilayers is improved. The effective magnetic anisotropy of (CoCr/Pt)_(20) multilayers withPt underlayer was much larger than that of CoCr/Pt bilayers. The (CoCr/Pt)_(20) multilayers has astronger perpendicular magnetic anisotropy than that of CoCr/Pt bilayers. This is ascribed to theinterface magnetic anisotropy of the multilayers.展开更多

The above two effects were analyzed based on Hall measurements under external magnetic fields longitudinal and vertical to dc current,respectively. The coercive field as a function of dc current in vertical mode with only the Rashba effect involved decreases due to thermal annealing. Meanwhile, spin orbit torques calculated from Hall resistance with only the spin Hall effect involved in the longitudinal mode decrease in the annealed sample. The experimental results prove that the bottom Pt/Co interface rather than the Co/MgO top one plays a more critical role in both Rashba effect and spin Hall effect.展开更多

文摘Objective:Prostate cancer(PCa)exhibits significant genomic differences between Western and Asian populations.This study aimed to design a predictive model applicable across diverse populations while selecting a limited set of genes suitable for clinical implementation.Methods:We utilized an integrated dataset of 1360 whole-exome and whole-genome sequences from Chinese and Western PCa cohorts to develop and evaluate the model.External validation was conducted using an independent cohort of patients.A graph neural network architecture,termed the pathway-aware multi-layered hierarchical network-Western and Asian(P-NETwa),was developed and trained on combined genomic profiles from Chinese and Western cohorts.The model employed a multilayer perceptron(MLP)to identify key signature genes from multiomics data,enabling precise prediction of PCa metastasis.Results:The model achieved an accuracy of 0.87 and an F1-score of 0.85 on Western population datasets.The application of integrated Chinese and Western population data improved the accuracy to 0.88,achieving an F1-score of 0.75.The analysis identified 18 signature genes implicated in PCa progression,including established markers(AR and TP53)and novel candidates(MUC16,MUC4,and ASB12).For clinical adoption,the model was optimized for commercially available gene panels while maintaining high classification accuracy.Additionally,a user-friendly web interface was developed to facilitate real-time prediction of primary versus metastatic status using the pre-trained P-NETwa-MLP model.Conclusion:The P-NETwa-MLP model integrates a query system that allows for efficient retrieval of prediction outcomes and associated genomic signatures via sample ID,enhancing its potential for seamless integration into clinical workflows.

文摘FePt (50 nm) and [FePt(a nm)/MgO(b nm)5/glass (a=1, 2, 3; b=1, 2, 3) films were prepared by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering technique, and then were annealed at 600℃ for 30 min. The effect of MgO layer thickness on the structures and magnetic properties of the FePt/MgO multilayers was investigated. The coercivities and inter-grain interactions of the FePt/MgO films were decreased, yet the degree of (001) texturing drastically increased with the increase in MgO layer thickness when the FePt layer thickness was fixed. Thus, the FePt/MgO films with appropriate coercivities, high perpendicular anisotropy, and weak intergrain interactions were obtained by controlling the MgO layer thickness. Overall, these results indicate that the FePt/MgO nanostructured films are promising candidates for future high-density perpendicular recording media.

文摘As the economy grows, environmental issues are becoming increasingly severe, making the promotion of green behavior more urgent. Information dissemination and policy regulation play crucial roles in influencing and amplifying the spread of green behavior across society. To this end, a novel three-layer model in multilayer networks is proposed. In the novel model, the information layer describes green information spreading, the physical contact layer depicts green behavior propagation, and policy regulation is symbolized by an isolated node beneath the two layers. Then, we deduce the green behavior threshold for the three-layer model using the microscopic Markov chain approach. Moreover, subject to some individuals who are more likely to influence others or become green nodes and the limitations of the capacity of policy regulation, an optimal scheme is given that could optimize policy interventions to most effectively prompt green behavior.Subsequently, simulations are performed to validate the preciseness and theoretical results of the new model. It reveals that policy regulation can prompt the prevalence and outbreak of green behavior. Then, the green behavior is more likely to spread and be prevalent in the SF network than in the ER network. Additionally, optimal allocation is highly successful in facilitating the dissemination of green behavior. In practice, the optimal allocation strategy could prioritize interventions at critical nodes or regions, such as highly connected urban areas, where the impact of green behavior promotion would be most significant.

文摘Wind power forecasting plays a crucial role in optimizing the integration of wind energy into the grid by predicting wind patterns and energy output.This enhances the efficiency and reliability of renewable energy systems.Forecasting approaches inform energy management strategies,reduce reliance on fossil fuels,and support the broader transition to sustainable energy solutions.The primary goal of this study is to introduce an effective methodology for estimating wind power through temporal data analysis.This research advances an optimized Multilayer Perceptron(MLP)model using recently proposedmetaheuristic optimization algorithms,namely the FireHawk Optimizer(FHO)and the Non-Monopolize Search(NO).A modified version of FHO,termed FHONO,is developed by integrating NO as a local search mechanism to enhance the exploration capability and address the shortcomings of the original FHO.The developed FHONO is then employed to optimize the MLP for enhanced wind power prediction.The effectiveness of the proposed FHONO-MLP model is validated using renowned datasets from wind turbines in France.The results of the comparative analysis between FHONO-MLP,conventionalMLP,and other optimized versions of MLP show that FHONO-MLP outperforms the others,achieving an average RootMean Square Error(RMSE)of 0.105,Mean Absolute Error(MAE)of 0.082,and Coefficient of Determination(R^(2))of 0.967 across all datasets.These findings underscore the significant enhancement in predictive accuracy provided by FHONO and demonstrate its effectiveness in improving wind power forecasting.

文摘The CoCr/Pt bilayers and (CoCr/Pt)_(20) multilayers with Pt underlayer wereprepared by DC magnetron sputtering. The effects of prepared condition on perpendicular magneticanisotropy were investigated. The results show that the thickness of Pt under-layer has a greateffect on the microstructure and perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of CoCr/Pt bilayers and(CoCr/Pt)_(20) multilayers. When the thickness of Pt underlayer increases, Pt(lll) and CoCr(002)peaks of both CoCr/Pt bilayers and (CoCr/Pt)_(20) multilayers increase and the bilayer periodicityof the multilayers is improved. The effective magnetic anisotropy of (CoCr/Pt)_(20) multilayers withPt underlayer was much larger than that of CoCr/Pt bilayers. The (CoCr/Pt)_(20) multilayers has astronger perpendicular magnetic anisotropy than that of CoCr/Pt bilayers. This is ascribed to theinterface magnetic anisotropy of the multilayers.

文摘The Multilayer Perceptron(MLP)is a fundamental neural network model widely applied in various domains,particularly for lightweight image classification,speech recognition,and natural language processing tasks.Despite its widespread success,training MLPs often encounter significant challenges,including susceptibility to local optima,slow convergence rates,and high sensitivity to initial weight configurations.To address these issues,this paper proposes a Latin Hypercube Opposition-based Elite Variation Artificial Protozoa Optimizer(LOEV-APO),which enhances both global exploration and local exploitation simultaneously.LOEV-APO introduces a hybrid initialization strategy that combines Latin Hypercube Sampling(LHS)with Opposition-Based Learning(OBL),thus improving the diversity and coverage of the initial population.Moreover,an Elite Protozoa Variation Strategy(EPVS)is incorporated,which applies differential mutation operations to elite candidates,accelerating convergence and strengthening local search capabilities around high-quality solutions.Extensive experiments are conducted on six classification tasks and four function approximation tasks,covering a wide range of problem complexities and demonstrating superior generalization performance.The results demonstrate that LOEV-APO consistently outperforms nine state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms and two gradient-based methods in terms of convergence speed,solution accuracy,and robustness.These findings suggest that LOEV-APO serves as a promising optimization tool for MLP training and provides a viable alternative to traditional gradient-based methods.

文摘The interplay of the Rashba effect and the spin Hall effect originating from current induced spin–orbit coupling was investigated in the as-deposited and annealed Pt/Co/MgO stacks with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The above two effects were analyzed based on Hall measurements under external magnetic fields longitudinal and vertical to dc current,respectively. The coercive field as a function of dc current in vertical mode with only the Rashba effect involved decreases due to thermal annealing. Meanwhile, spin orbit torques calculated from Hall resistance with only the spin Hall effect involved in the longitudinal mode decrease in the annealed sample. The experimental results prove that the bottom Pt/Co interface rather than the Co/MgO top one plays a more critical role in both Rashba effect and spin Hall effect.

文摘Hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))oxidation and reduction reactions(HPOR/HPRR)are pivotal in various innovative electrochemical energy conversion devices.A comprehensive understanding of these mechanisms is critical for catalyst design and performance improvement in these applications.In this work,we systematically investigate the HPOR/HPRR mechanisms on low-index Pt surfaces,specifically Pt(111),Pt(100)and Pt(110),through density functional theory(DFT)calculations combined with the computational hydrogen electrode(CHE)model.For HPOR,all the low-index Pt surfaces exhibit a unified potential-determining step(PDS)involving the electrochemical oxidation of hydroperoxyl intermediates(HOO*).The binding free energy of HOO*(Δ_(GHOO*))emerges as an activity descriptor,with Pt(110)exhibiting the highest HPOR activity.The HPRR mechanism follows a chem-electrochemical(C-EC)pathway.The rate-determining step(RDS)of HPRR is either the cleavage of the HO-OH bond(chemical)or the reduction of HO(electrochemical),depending on their respective activation energies.These activation energies are functions of the HO*binding free energy,Δ_(GHO*),establishingΔ_(GHO*)as the descriptor for HPRR activity prediction.Pt(111)and Pt(100)are identified as the most active HPRR catalysts among the studied metal surfaces,although they still experience a significant overpotential.The scaling relationship betweenΔ_(GHOO*)andΔ_(GHO*)reveals a thermodynamic coupling of HPOR and HPRR,explaining their occurrence on Pt surfaces.These findings provide important insights and activity descriptors for both HPOR and HPRR,providing valuable guidance for the design of electrocatalysts in H_(2)O_(2)-related energy applications and fuel cells.
