With the aids of Kevlar polyanionic chains, thermoplastic polyurethane(TPU) foams reinforced by aramid nanofibers(ANF) with adjustable pore-size distribution were successfully obtained via a nonsolvent-induced phase separation. In this regard, the most outstanding result is the in situ formation of ANF in TPU foams after protonation of Kevlar polyanion during the NIPS process. Furthermore, in situ growth of copper nanoparticles(Cu NPs) on TPU/ANF foams was performed according to the electroless deposition by using the tiny amount of pre-blended Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene as reducing agents. Particularly, the existence of Cu NPs layers significantly promoted the storage modulus in 2,932% increments, and the well-designed TPU/ANF/Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene(PAM-Cu) composite foams showed distinguished compressive cycle stability. Taking virtues of the highly ordered and elastic porous architectures, the PAM-Cu foams were utilized as piezoresistive sensor exhibiting board compressive interval of 0–344.5 kPa(50% strain) with good sensitivity at 0.46 kPa^(-1). Meanwhile,the PAM-Cu foams displayed remarkable EMI shielding effectiveness at 79.09 dB in X band. This work provides an ideal strategy to fabricate highly ordered TPU foams with outstanding elastic recovery and excellent EMI shielding performance, which can be used as a promising candidate in integration of satisfactory piezoresistive sensor and EMI shielding applications for human–machine interfaces.展开更多

文摘In wideband noncooperative interference cancellation,the reference signals obtained through auxiliary antennas are weighted to cancel with the interference signal.The correlation between the reference signal and the interference signal determines interference cancellation performance,while the auxiliary antenna array affects the correlation by influencing the amplitude and phase of the reference signals.This paper analyzes the effect of auxiliary antenna array on multiple performances of wideband noncooperative interference cancellation.Firstly,the array received signal model of wideband interference is established,and the weight vector coupled with the auxiliary antennas array manifold is solved by spectral analysis and eigen-subspace decomposition.Then,multiple performances which include cancellation resolution,grating null,wideband interference cancellation ratio(ICR),and convergence rate are quantitatively characterized with the auxiliary antenna array.It is obtained through analysis that the performances mutually restrict the auxiliary antenna array.Higher cancellation resolution requires larger array aperture,but when the number of auxiliary antennas is fixed,larger array aperture results in more grating nulls.When the auxiliary antennas are closer to the main antenna,the wideband ICR is improved,but the convergence rate is reduced.The conclusions are verified through simulation of one-dimensional uniform array and two-dimensional nonuniform array.The experiments of three arrays are compared,and the results conform well with simulation and support the theoretical analysis.

We take the anharmonic oscillator driven by bi-chrome fields as an example to illustrate that this method can be used to understand the effect of generation-channel interference.

文摘RNA interference(RNAi)is a post-transcriptional gene-silencing technique induced by the introduction of double-stranded RNA(dsRNA)or small interfering RNA(siRNA)[1].RNAi-based strategies have been extensively applied in the treatment of human diseases and crop protection against insect pests[2-4].With the availability of the full genome sequences of major mosquito vectors,RNAi has become increasingly used as a novel means of mosquito control[5].

文摘The second-order interference of two independent photons with different spectra in a Shih-Alley/Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer is studied in Feynman's path integral theory. There is a second-order interference pattern for photons with different spectra if the photons are indistinguishable for the employed detection system. The conditions to observe the second-order temporal beating with photons of different spectra are analyzed. The influence of the response time of the detection system on the observed second-order interference pattern is also discussed. It is a direct result of that measurement in quantum mechanics is dependent on the employed measuring apparatus. The results are helpful to understand the physics of two-photon interference in different schemes.

文摘Wave-particle duality is one of the key features of quantum physics,characterized by the interference pattern.Meanwhile,Floquet spectroscopy is typically studied in the high-frequency region because the Floquet sidebands are very sharp,behaving like“particles”in frequency space,and no interference phenomena are observed.Here,we consider the larger quantum fluctuation region where the Floquet sidebands are broader,making interference between them possible.With the help of an optical lattice clock experimental platform and numerical simulations,such interference of Floquet modes in frequency space is clearly observed.Additionally,it exhibits many exotic phenomena,such as large Floquet sidebands between integer ones,sensitivity to the initial phase,and corresponding emergent symmetries.To analytically elucidate this,we propose the Floquet channel interference hypothesis,which surprisingly matches quantitatively well with both experimental and numerical results.Our research paves the way for developing a new type of interferometer that could be applicable to other Floquet systems.

文摘Electromagnetic interference shielding materials are inevitably damaged during service,causing a serious decline in their shielding performance.Therefore,it is urgent to develop polymer-based composites with excellent electromagnetic shielding and self-healing properties.In this study,a layered foam/film structure polycaprolactone composite characterized by electric/magnetic bifunctionality was constructed by a hot-pressing process and supercritical carbon dioxide foaming.The microcellular framework offers rich heterogeneous interfaces and improves electromagnetic attenuation capabilities.Such a reasonable construction of asymmetric shielding networks optimizes the impedance matching,while the incident electromagnetic waves form a special attenuation mode of“absorption-reflection-reabsorption”.The polycaprolactone composite foam exhibits an excellent electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness of 53.6 dB in the X-band and a low reflection value of only 0.36,effectively reducing secondary pollution.In addition,the damaged polycaprolactone composite foam exhibits over 93%electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness and healing efficiency,ensuring the long-term stability of the material in practical applications.

文摘The ground-state magnetic ordering of uranium mononitride(UN)remains a contentious topic due to the unexpected lack of crystallographic distortion in the traditionally accepted 1k antiferromagnetic(AFM)state.This discrepancy casts doubt on the validity of the 1k magnetic ordering of UN.Here,we investigate the crystal structure,high-pressure phase transitions,and dynamical and mechanical properties of UN in its 1k and 3k AFM ground states using density functional theory(DFT).Our results reveal that the undistorted 3k AFM state of Fm3m within the DFT+U+SOC scheme is more consistent with experimental results.The Hubbard U and spin-orbit coupling(SOC)are critical for accurately capturing the crystal structure,high-pressure structural phase transition,and dynamical properties of UN.In addition,we have identified a new high-pressure magnetic phase transition from the nonmagnetic(NM)phase of R3m to the P63/mmc AFM state.Electronic structure analysis reveals that the magnetic ordering in the ground state is primarily linked to variations in partial 5f orbital distributions.Our calculations provide valuable theoretical insights into the complex magnetic structures of a typical strongly correlated uranium-based compound.Moreover,they provide a framework for understanding other similar actinide systems.

文摘This paper considers the fundamental channel estimation problem for the multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(MIMO-OFDM)system in the presence of multi-cell interference.Specifically,this paper focuses on both channel modelling and receiver design for interference estimation and mitigation.We propose a delay-calibrated block-wise linear model,which extracts the delay of the dominant tap of each interference as a key parameter and approximates the residual channel coefficients by the recently developed blockwise linear model.Based on the delay-calibrated block-wise linear model and the angle-domain channel sparsity,we further conceive a message passing algorithm to solve the channel estimation problem.Numerical results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed algorithm over the state-of-the-art algorithms.
