Novel compact microstrip bandpass filters with stub-loaded multi-mode resonators are proposed. Simulated results indicate that all the filters exhibit insertion losses less than 1.5 dB with passband ripples of 1 dB and sharp attenuations of above 40 dB in their stopbands. The maximums of input and output VSWRs are 1.742 and 1.734, respectively. Due to fabrication error, the initial measured passbands show frequency shifts and insertion losses in upper passbands deteriorate seriously. After tuning of the filter bank, measured results imply that the input and output VSWRs are found lower than 2.135 and 2.187, and the insertion loss in 1 dB bandwidth is less than 2.52 dB. Filter bank has a sharp skirt and out-of-band rejection levels approaching to 40 dB in all desired stopbands except at the frequencies near 2f0.展开更多

The numerical results show that the resonant modes confined in an equilateral triangular cavity have much higher quality factors than those in the square or the rhombus cavities. The modes in the ETR are totally confined in transverse direction while those in the SR and RR are only partly confined. For the ETR with the side length of 4μm and the refractive index of 3 2, the mode quality factor of about 5 5×10 3 at the wavelength of 1 55μm has been obtained.展开更多

文摘Enhancing the vibration resistance of micro-electro-mechanical systems(MEMS)resonators in complex environments is a critical issue that urgently needs to be addressed.This paper presents a chip-scale locally resonant phononic crystal(LRPnC)plate based on a folded helical beam structure.Through finite element simulation and theoretical analysis,the bandgap characteristics and vibration suppression mechanisms of this structure were thoroughly investigated.The results show that the structure exhibits a complete bandgap in the frequency range of 9.867-14.605 kHz,and the bandgap can be effectively tuned by adjusting the structural parameters.Based on this,the influence of the number of unit cell layers on the vibration reduction performance was further studied,and a finite periodic LRPnC plate was constructed.Numerical studies have shown that the LRPnC plate can achieve more than-30 dB of vibration attenuation within the bandgap and effectively suppress y-direction coupling vibrations caused by x-direction propagating waves.In addition,its chip-scale size and planar structure design provide new ideas and methods for the engineering application of phononic crystal technology in the field of MEMS vibration isolation.

文摘As an ultrathin wide-bandgap(WBG)material,CaNb_(2)O_(6)exhibits excellent optical and electrical properties.Particularly,its highly asymmetric crystal structure provides new opportunities for designing novel nanodevices with directional functionality.However,due to the significant challenges in applying conventional techniques to nanoscale samples,the in-plane anisotropy of CaNb_(2)O_(6)has still remained unexplored.Here,we leverage the resonant nanoelectromechanical systems(NEMS)platform to successfully quantify both the mechanical and thermal anisotropies in such an ultrathin WBG crystal.Specifically,by measuring the dynamic response in both spectral and spatial domains,we determine the anisotropic Young’s modulus of CaNb_(2)O_(6)as E_(Y(a))=70.42 GPa and EY(b)=116.2 GPa.By further expanding this technique to cryogenic temperatures,we unveil the anisotropy in thermal expansion coefficients as α_((a))=13.4 ppm·K^(-1),α(b)=2.9 ppm·K^(-1).Interestingly,through thermal strain engineering,we successfully modulate the mode sequence and achieve a crossing of(1×2)-(2×1)modes with perfect degeneracy.Our study provides guidelines for future CaNb_(2)O_(6)nanodevices with additional degrees of freedom and new device functions.

文摘A broadband tunable acoustic metasurface(BTAM)is conceived with Helmholtz resonators(HRs).The tunability of HRs’neck enables precise control over the phase shift of the unit cell.Through careful arrangement of unit cells,the BTAMs are engineered to exhibit various phase differences,thereby inducing anomalous reflections and acoustic focusing.Numerical simulations demonstrate the BTAM’s remarkable efficacy in manipulating the angle of reflection wave and achieving wave focusing across a broadband frequency range.Experimental investigations of the phase shift and anomalous reflection further validate the design of metasurface.This work contributes to the fields of broadband and tunable acoustic wave manipulation and provides a flexible and efficient approach for acoustic control devices.

文摘Microring resonators(MRRs)are extensively utilized in photonic chips for generating quantum light sources and enabling high-efficiency nonlinear frequency conversion.However,conventional microrings are typically optimized for a single specific function,limiting their versatility in multifunctional applications.In this work,we propose a reconfigurable microring resonator architecture designed to accommodate diverse application requirements.By integrating a cascaded Mach–Zehnder interferometer(MZI)as the microring coupler,the design enables independent control of the quality factors for pump,signal and idler photons through two tunable phase shifters.This capability allows for dynamic tuning and optimization of critical performance parameters,including photon-pair generation rate(PGR),spectral purity and single photon heralding efficiency(HE).The proposed structure is implemented on a silicon photonic chip,and experimental results exhibit a wide range of tunability for these parameters,with excellent agreement with theoretical predictions.This flexible and multi-functional design offers a promising pathway for high-performance,highly integrated on-chip quantum information processing systems.

文摘Two-dimensional phononic crystal(PnC)slabs have shown advantages in enhancing the quality factors Q of piezoelectric laterally vibrating resonators(LVRs)through topology optimization.However,the narrow geometries of most topology-optimized silicon–air 2D PnC slabs face significant fabrication challenges owing to restricted etching precision,and the anisotropic nature of silicon is frequently overlooked.To address these issues,this study employs the finite element method with appropriate discretization numbers and the genetic algorithm to optimize the structures and geometries of 2D silicon–air PnC slabs.The optimized square-lattice PnC slabs,featuring a rounded-cross structure oriented along the`110e directions of silicon,achieve an impressive relative bandgap(RBG)width of 82.2%for in-plane modes.When further tilted by 15° from the (100) directions within the(001)plane,the optimal RBG width is expanded to 91.4%.We fabricate and characterize thin-film piezoelectric-on-silicon LVRs,with or without optimized 2D PnC slabs.The presence of PnC slabs around anchors increases the series and parallel quality factors Q_(s) and Q_(p) from 2240 to 7118 and from 2237 to 7501,respectively,with the PnC slabs oriented along the`110e directions of silicon.

文摘To enhance the quality factor and sensitivity of refractive index sensors,a feedback waveguide slot grating micro-ring resonator was proposed.An air-hole grating structure was introduced based on the slot micro-ring,utilizing the reflection of the grating to achieve the electromagnetic-like induced transparency effect at different wavelengths.The high slope characteristics of the EIT-like effect enabled a higher quality factor and sensitivity.The transmission principle of the structure was analyzed using the transmission matrix method,and the transmission spectrum and mode field distribution were simulated using the finite-difference time-domain(FDTD)method,and the device structure parameters were adjusted for optimization.Simulation results show that the proposed structure achieves an EIT-like effect with a quality factor of 59267.5.In the analysis of refractive index sensing characteristics,the structure exhibits a sensitivity of 408.57 nm/RIU and a detection limit of 6.23×10^(-5) RIU.Therefore,the proposed structure achieved both a high quality factor and refractive index sensitivity,demonstrating excellent sensing performance for applications in environmental monitoring,biomedical fields,and other areas with broad market potential.

文摘AIM:To compare spontaneous brain regional activities between diabetic vitreous hemorrhage patients(DVHs)and healthy controls(HCs).METHODS:Thirty-two DVHs and 32 HCs were enrolled in this study.Baseline demographic and vision data were compared between groups using an independent sample t-test.Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging(rs-fMRI)was used in all participants.fMRI data was obtained and analyzed using MRIcro and SPM8 software.Fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation(fALFF)technology was used to measure regional spontaneous brain activity,and sensitivity was tested using receiver operating characteristic curves(ROCs).The fALFF values were analyzed using REST software and two-sample t-tests were used to compare values between groups.Hospital anxiety and depression scale(HADS)score was assessed in DVHs and Pearson’s correlation was used to test relationships between mean fALFF value and both HADS score and duration of DVH.RESULTS:Except for the best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA)in both eyes,which showed a statistically significant difference(P<0.05),there were no statistically significant differences in the other indicators(P>0.05)between the HCs and DVHs group.Compared with controls,fALFF value was higher in DVH in cerebellum posterior lobe(CPL)and lower in right anterior cingulate cortex(ACC)and right medial orbitofrontal cortex(OFC).In DVH patients,mean fALFF value of CPL was positively correlated with HADS score and duration of diabetes.However,no such correlation was found,for right ACC or right medial OFC.DVH may lead to abnormal activities in certain brain regions related to visual control and mood.CONCLUSION:Visual impairment caused by DVH may lead to adjustment in regional visual brain activities and may be related to depression or reward system processing in some brain regions.

文摘Freezing of gait is a significant and debilitating motor symptom often observed in individuals with Parkinson's disease.Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging,along with its multi-level feature indices,has provided a fresh perspective and valuable insight into the study of freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease.It has been revealed that Parkinson's disease is accompanied by widespread irregularities in inherent brain network activity.However,the effective integration of the multi-level indices of resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging into clinical settings for the diagnosis of freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease remains a challenge.Although previous studies have demonstrated that radiomics can extract optimal features as biomarkers to identify or predict diseases,a knowledge gap still exists in the field of freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease.This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the ability of radiomics features based on multi-level indices of resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging,along with clinical features,to distinguish between Parkinson's disease patients with and without freezing of gait.We recruited 28 patients with Parkinson's disease who had freezing of gait(15 men and 13 women,average age 63 years)and 30 patients with Parkinson's disease who had no freezing of gait(16 men and 14 women,average age 64 years).Magnetic resonance imaging scans were obtained using a 3.0T scanner to extract the mean amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations,mean regional homogeneity,and degree centrality.Neurological and clinical characteristics were also evaluated.We used the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator algorithm to extract features and established feedforward neural network models based solely on resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging indicators.We then performed predictive analysis of three distinct groups based on resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging indicators indicators combined with clinical features.Subsequently,we conducted 100 additional five-fold cross-validations to determine the most effective model for each classification task and evaluated the performance of the model using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve.The results showed that when differentiating patients with Parkinson's disease who had freezing of gait from those who did not have freezing of gait,or from healthy controls,the models using only the mean regional homogeneity values achieved the highest area under the receiver operating characteristic curve values of 0.750(with an accuracy of 70.9%)and 0.759(with an accuracy of 65.3%),respectively.When classifying patients with Parkinson's disease who had freezing of gait from those who had no freezing of gait,the model using the mean amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation values combined with two clinical features achieved the highest area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.847(with an accuracy of 74.3%).The most significant features for patients with Parkinson's disease who had freezing of gait were amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation alterations in the left parahippocampal gyrus and two clinical characteristics:Montreal Cognitive Assessment and Hamilton Depression Scale scores.Our findings suggest that radiomics features derived from resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging indices and clinical information can serve as valuable indices for the identification of freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease.

文摘Diffraction effects will bring about more difficulties in actuating resonators,which are electrostatically actuated ones with sub-micrometer or nanometer dimensions,and in detecting the frequency of the resonator by optical detection.To avoid the effects of diffraction,a new type of nanoelectromechanical systems（NEMS） resonators is fabricated and actuated to oscillate.As a comparison,a doubly clamped silicon beam is also fabricated and studied.The smallest width and thickness of the resonators are 180 and 200 nm,respectively.The mechanical oscillation responses of these two kinds of resonators are studied experimentally.Results show that the resonant frequencies are from 6.8 to 20 MHz,much lower than the theoretical values.Based on the simulation,it is found that over-etching is one of the important factors which results in lower frequencies than the theoretical values.It is also found that the difference between resonance frequencies of two types of resonators decreases with the increase in beam length.The quality factor is improved greatly by lowering the pressure in the sample chamber at room temperature.

文摘This paper considers the problem of time varying congestion pricing to determine optimal time-varying tolls at peak periods for a queuing network with the interactions between buses and private cars.Through the combined applications of the space-time expanded network（STEN） and the conventional network equilibrium modeling techniques,a multi-class,multi-mode and multi-criteria traffic network equilibrium model is developed.Travelers of different classes have distinctive value of times（VOTs）,and travelers from the same class perceive their travel disutility or generalized costs on a route according to different weights of travel time and travel costs.Moreover,the symmetric cost function model is extended to deal with the interactions between buses and private cars.It is found that there exists a uniform（anonymous） link toll pattern which can drive a multi-class,multi-mode and multi-criteria user equilibrium flow pattern to a system optimum when the system＇s objective function is measured in terms of money.It is also found that the marginal cost pricing models with a symmetric travel cost function do not reflect the interactions between traffic flows of different road sections,and the obtained congestion pricing toll is smaller than the real value.
文摘The mode frequencies and the quality factors for the equilateral triangular resonator (ETR), the square resonator (SR) and the rhombus resonator (RR) are numerically calculated by the finite difference time domain technique and the Padé approximation. The numerical results show that the resonant modes confined in an equilateral triangular cavity have much higher quality factors than those in the square or the rhombus cavities. The modes in the ETR are totally confined in transverse direction while those in the SR and RR are only partly confined. For the ETR with the side length of 4μm and the refractive index of 3 2, the mode quality factor of about 5 5×10 3 at the wavelength of 1 55μm has been obtained.
