文摘The Wilczek–Zee connection(WZC)is a key concept in the study of topology of quantum systems.Here,we introduce the double Wilczek–Zee connection(DWZC)which naturally appears in the pure-state quantum geometric tensor(QGT),another important concept in the field of quantum geometry.The DWZC is Hermitian with respect to the two integer indices,just like the original Hermitian WZC.Based on the symmetric logarithmic derivative operator,we propose a mixed-state quantum geometric tensor.Using the symmetric properties of the DWZC,we find that the real part of the QGT is connected to the real part of the DWZC and the square of eigenvalue differences of the density matrix,whereas the imaginary part can be given in terms of the imaginary part of the DWZC and the cube of the eigenvalue differences.For density matrices with full rank or no full rank,the QGT can be given in terms of real and imaginary parts of the DWZC.

文摘The development of quantum materials for single-photon emission is crucial for the advancement of quantum information technology.Although significant advancements have been witnessed in recent years for single-photon sources in the near-infrared band(λ∼700–1000 nm),several challenges have yet to be addressed for ideal single-photon emission at the telecommunication band.In this study,we present a droplet-epitaxy strategy for O-band to C-band single-photon source-based semiconductor quantum dots(QDs)using metal-organic vaporphase epitaxy(MOVPE).By investigating the growth conditions of the epitaxial process,we have successfully synthesized InAs/InP QDs with narrow emission lines spanning a broad spectral range of λ∼1200–1600 nm.The morphological and optical properties of the samples were characterized using atomic force microscopy and microphotoluminescence spectroscopy.The recorded single-photon purity of a plain QD structure reaches g^((2))(0)=0.16,with a radiative recombination lifetime as short as 1.5 ns.This work provides a crucial platform for future research on integrated microcavity enhancement techniques and coupled QDs with other quantum photonics in the telecom bands,offering significant prospects for quantum network applications.

文摘The Intrusion Detection System(IDS)is a security mechanism developed to observe network traffic and recognize suspicious or malicious activities.Clustering algorithms are often incorporated into IDS;however,conventional clustering-based methods face notable drawbacks,including poor scalability in handling high-dimensional datasets and a strong dependence of outcomes on initial conditions.To overcome the performance limitations of existing methods,this study proposes a novel quantum-inspired clustering algorithm that relies on a similarity coefficient-based quantum genetic algorithm(SC-QGA)and an improved quantum artificial bee colony algorithm hybrid K-means(IQABC-K).First,the SC-QGA algorithmis constructed based on quantum computing and integrates similarity coefficient theory to strengthen genetic diversity and feature extraction capabilities.For the subsequent clustering phase,the process based on the IQABC-K algorithm is enhanced with the core improvement of adaptive rotation gate and movement exploitation strategies to balance the exploration capabilities of global search and the exploitation capabilities of local search.Simultaneously,the acceleration of convergence toward the global optimum and a reduction in computational complexity are facilitated by means of the global optimum bootstrap strategy and a linear population reduction strategy.Through experimental evaluation with multiple algorithms and diverse performance metrics,the proposed algorithm confirms reliable accuracy on three datasets:KDD CUP99,NSL_KDD,and UNSW_NB15,achieving accuracy of 98.57%,98.81%,and 98.32%,respectively.These results affirm its potential as an effective solution for practical clustering applications.

文摘The hybridization gap in strained-layer InAs/In_(x)Ga_(1−x) Sb quantum spin Hall insulators(QSHIs)is significantly enhanced compared to binary InAs/GaSb QSHI structures,where the typical indium composition,x,ranges between 0.2 and 0.4.This enhancement prompts a critical question:to what extent can quantum wells(QWs)be strained while still preserving the fundamental QSHI phase?In this study,we demonstrate the controlled molecular beam epitaxial growth of highly strained-layer QWs with an indium composition of x=0.5.These structures possess a substantial compressive strain within the In_(0.5)Ga_(0.5)Sb QW.Detailed crystal structure analyses confirm the exceptional quality of the resulting epitaxial films,indicating coherent lattice structures and the absence of visible dislocations.Transport measurements further reveal that the QSHI phase in InAs/In_(0.5)Ga_(0.5)Sb QWs is robust and protected by time-reversal symmetry.Notably,the edge states in these systems exhibit giant magnetoresistance when subjected to a modest perpendicular magnetic field.This behavior is in agreement with the𝑍2 topological property predicted by the Bernevig–Hughes–Zhang model,confirming the preservation of topologically protected edge transport in the presence of enhanced bulk strain.

文摘In this research,a comparative analysis was conducted on the performance and efficiency of the dual-anchor soft robot(DASR)and the extension-contraction soft robot(ECSR).These robots were constructed by imitating the locomotion of razor clams.The penetration force for extension actuators and the anchorage force for expansion actuators in dry sand with distinct relative densities were tested by differentiating input air pressure and length-to-diameter ratios(λ).On the basis of the findings,a DASR and an ECSR were developed.DASR comprised two expansion actuators as the head and the tail segments at two ends,and one extension actuator as the middle segment.ECSR was composed of an extension actuator.A method based on the force equilibrium was introduced to ascertain and adjust the geometric parameters(length of each segment)of DASR.The burrowing-out performance and efficiency of DASR and ECSR in sands with distinct relative densities were explored.The results revealed that DASR exhibited high efficiency in dense sand in terms of lower time of burrowing-out,slip-to-advancement ratio,and cost of transport.ECSR might perform better in looser sand in terms of higher average burrowing-out velocity,higher advancement in each cycle,and lower energy consumption.However,it had larger slips than DASR.DASR could realize steady advancement and net displacement in each cycle and effectively decrease slips.These findings demonstrate the benefits and usability of the dual-anchor motion and offer new insights into the application of the dual-anchor mechanism in the burrowing of robots.

文摘In recent years,the addition of probiotics into non-dairy beverages has gained popularity.Probiotics offer a wider range of options for individuals who are sensitive to dairy products.Incorporating probiotics into widely consumed beverages like carbonated soft drinks poses a notable challenge due to the detrimental impact of acidic pH.Herein,results demonstrate that chitosan-coated alginate/gellan gum microcapsules can enhance the viability of probiotics within carbonated soft drinks.The probiotics,Lactobacillus casei,are encapsulated in microcapsules and exposed to Pepsi,Fanta Strawberry,Sprite,and A&W Root Beer under 4 and 25℃for 60 days and simulated gastrointestinal tract.Microcapsules greatly improve the viability of adding probiotics in different beverages under simulated gastrointestinal tract.The probiotics had a gradual release from microcapsules,reaching maximum release within initial 2 h of simulated intestinal phase.During 4℃storage compared to storage at 25℃,it was found that the number of surviving cells is more than the recommended minimum(10^(6)CFU/g)at the end of the storage.The pH and soluble solids content of beverages containing microcapsules also signify little change.This work shows that the chitosan-coated alginate/gellan microcapsules have the potential to be used as protective microcapsules for probiotics in carbonated soft drinks.

文摘Flexible materials with perovskite quantum dots(PQDs)are widely used in the field of photonics and opto-electronics due to their unique properties.Development of new materials based on these nanoparticles,incorporated into flexible and lightweight nonwoven fabrics,demonstrated high photoconductivity and efficient light energy conversion.In this work,we propose a method for creating a stable luminescent nonwoven material using electrospinning,in which inorganic salt precursors are used without the need for additional stabilizers.Equimolar solutions of cesium and lead(Ⅱ)bromide were mixed with a fluoroplast,resulting in a series of samples.Luminescent materials were obtained containing PQDs with a composition of CsPbBr_(3),with emission peaks ranging from 507 to 517 nm under 365-nm excitation.We have experimentally established and theoretically confirmed that the peak position is related to the size of the particles formed in the fiber during electrospinning and depends on processing time.Developed materials exhibited stable luminescent properties for up to 2.5 years,making them a promising candidate for the development of new flexible optoelectronic devices based on PQDs.

文摘Polyurethane elastomers exhibit high dielectric constants owing to their polar groups,and can be used as energy storage capacitors.Energy storage depends not only on the dielectric constant but also on the dielectric loss.However,the relationship between chain structure and dielectric properties is not yet clear.Ketal-containing crosslinked polyurethane elastomers were prepared using cyclic ketal diol as a chain extender.The effect of the soft segment length on the dielectric properties and energy storage was investigated.The cause of the change in the dipolar polarization with the soft segment length was analyzed.As the soft segment length increased,the hard-soft hydrogen bonding decreased,whereas the hard-hard hydrogen bonding increased.Under the action of an electric field,the polar bonds in the ketal-containing polyurethane elastomer overcome the hydrogen bonding between hard-soft segments to produce polarization;meanwhile,they also experience crankshaft motions to generate polarization.The former has a relatively high relaxation activation energy of approximately 10-20 k J·mol^(-1),resulting in a large dielectric loss.The latter has a relatively low relaxation activation energy,approximately 0.7-1.7 kJ·mol^(-1),leading to low dielectric loss.As a result,the dielectric constant showed a decreasing trend,and the dielectric loss gradually decreased.This study provides a theoretical foundation for improving the dielectric properties of polyurethane elastomers.

文摘Air-permeable and ultrathin conductive electrodes are essential for next-generation soft electronics,including breathable wearables,on-skin devices and biointegrated electronics.However,conventional metallization strategies,such as sputtering and ink-printing,often suffer from severe vertical charge leakage due to the porous and ultrathin characteristics of nanofibrous networks,leading to device short-circuiting,operational failure and limited vertical integration.Here,we present a solvent-selective dissolutionassisted transfer printing strategy to achieve surface-confined metallization of ultrathin,lightweight,and gas-permeable nanofibrous networks,enabling lateral conductivity while maintaining vertical insulation.This transfer printing process facilitates not only the rapid formation of conductive patterns on the surface of nanofibrous networks but also mechanical reinforcement through solvent evaporation-induced interlocked fiber-fiber welding.Meanwhile,the strategy preserves the high permeability of the nanofibrous networks and imparts a unique combination of surface conductivity(2Ωcm)and vertical insulativity(10^(11)Ωcm).The resulting anisotropic conductive networks enable low-voltage wearable heaters,high-sensitive pressure sensors,and ultralight temperature sensors.A pressure-temperature dual-modal sensing patch is further fabricated for intelligent grasping classification.The proposed surface-confined metallization strategy enables rapid fabrication of an anisotropic conductive network as a building block to construct air-permeable,ultrathin and lightweight wearable electronics.

文摘Soft-tissue motion introduces significant challenges in robotic teleoperation,especially in medical scenarios where precise target tracking is critical.Latency across sensing,computation,and actuation chains leads to degraded tracking performance,particularly around high-acceleration segments and trajectory inflection points.This study investigates machine learning-based predictive compensation for latency mitigation in soft-tissue tracking.Three models—autoregressive(AR),long short-term memory(LSTM),and temporal convolutional network(TCN)—were implemented and evaluated on both synthetic and real datasets.By aligning the prediction horizon with the end-to-end system delay,we demonstrate that prediction-based compensation significantly reduces tracking errors.Among the models,TCN achieved superior robustness and accuracy on complex motion patterns,particularly in multi-step prediction tasks,and exhibited better latency–horizon compatibility.The results suggest that TCN is a promising candidate for real-time latency compensation in teleoperated robotic systems involving dynamic soft-tissue interaction.
