By solving a complete set of Maxwell＇s equations in the nanocable （with a 50 nm radius gold nanocore, 10-300 nm silica layer, and 30-200nm gold nanocladding）, the dispersion relations on the optical frequency and on the silica thickness are discussed. When the silica thickness varies from 50 to 250 nm, at a fixed waveleltgth, the strong coupling between the gold nanocore and the nanocladding leads to a symmetric-like surface mode and an antisymmetric-like surface mode in the nanocable. The transformation between the surface mode and the waveguide mode in this structure is also investigated. The results will be helpful for understanding the surface waves in the subwavelength structures.展开更多

The paradox of...In order to deploy the crucial levers in the transformation of the Chinese mode of economic development, it is necessary to identify the nature and reasons for the economy＇s existing mode of operation. The paradox of China＇s ＂double surplus＂ in the international balance of payments reflects the substantive issue of the appearance of a capability gap in Chinese economic development, which, interacting with dependence on FDI, hinders industry upgrading. As a result, the extensive mode of development has persisted and even worsened, rendering the Chinese economy more vulnerable to external shocks. At the historic juncture when the international economic environment is undergoing dramatic changes, the Chinese economy is likely to suffer severe setbacks due to its capability gap and dependence on FDI unless there is substantial development in its technological and organizational capacities and institution-building. Therefore, the critical variable in transforming the Chinese mode of economic development is capability growth.展开更多

In order to better understand the mechanism of ductile mode cutting of silicon, the molecular dynamics （MD） method is employed to simulate the nanoscale cutting of monocrystalline silicon. The simulated variation of the cutting forces with the tool cutting edge radius is compared with the cutting force results from experimental cutting tests and they show a good agreement. The results also indicate that there is silicon phase transformation from monocrystalline to amorphous in the chip formation zone that can be used to explain the cause of ductile mode cutting. Moreover, from the simulated stress results, the two necessary conditions of ductile mode cutting, the tool cutting edge radius are reduced to nanoscale and the undeformed chip thickness should be smaller than the tool cutting edge radius, have been explained.展开更多

After years of water drive development, there are great differences in the development status, water flooding degree and pressure maintenance level of each block on the plane and vertically. Relying solely on water drive to improve the development effect has limited potential, so it is urgent to change the development mode. Chemical flooding technology is an important way of tertiary oil recovery. By injecting polymer solution with a certain viscosity into the formation, it can improve the oil washing efficiency and expand the swept volume, so as to improve the effect of thin oil development. In August 2017, polymer flooding pilot test was carried out in 6 well groups of du18 block, Shu3 District, Shuguang Oilfield.展开更多
