The as-deposited films are annealed at different temperatures from 400℃ to 800 ℃ in air for 1 h. Transmittance spectra are used to determine the optical parameters and the thicknesses of the films before and after annealing using a nonlinear programming method, and the effects of the annealing temperatures on the optical parameters and the thickness are investigated. The optical band gap is determined from the absorption coefficient. The calculated results show that the film thickness and optical parameters both increase first and then decrease with increasing annealing temperature from 400℃ to 800℃. The band gap of the as-deposited ZnO：In thin film is 3.28 eV, and it decreases to 3.17 eV after annealing at 400℃. Then the band gap increases from 3.17 eV to 3.23 eV with increasing annealing temperature from 400℃ to 800℃.展开更多

System abnormalities or illegal operations can befound in time by analyzing the log and provide evidence for intrusions. In orderto ensure the integrity of the log in the current system, many researchers havedesigned it based on blockchain. However, the emerging blockchain is facing significant security challenges with the increment of quantum computers. An attackerequipped with a quantum computer can extract the user's private key from thepublic key to generate a forged signature, destroy the structure of the blockchain,and threaten the security of the log system. Thus, blind signature on the lattice inpost-quantum blockchain brings new security features for log systems. In ourpaper, to address these, firstly, we propose a novel log system based on post-quantum blockchain that can resist quantum computing attacks. Secondly, we utilize apost-quantum blind signature on the lattice to ensure both security and blindnessof log system, which makes the privacy of log information to a large extent.Lastly, we enhance the security level of lattice-based blind signature under therandom oracle model, and the signature size grows slowly compared with others.We also implement our protocol and conduct an extensive analysis to prove theideas. The results show that our scheme signature size edges up subtly comparedwith others with the improvement of security level.展开更多

Traditional centrality measures often fall short in capturing the multifaceted roles of nodes within these networks. The Page Rank algorithm, widely recognized for ranking web pages, offers a more nuanced approach by considering the importance of connected nodes. However, existing methods generally overlook the geometric properties of networks, which can provide additional insights into their structure and functionality. In this paper, we propose a novel method named Curv-Page Rank(C-PR), which integrates network curvature and Page Rank to identify influential nodes in complex networks. By leveraging the geometric insights provided by curvature alongside structural properties, C-PR offers a more comprehensive measure of a node's influence. Our approach is particularly effective in networks with community structures, where it excels at pinpointing bridge nodes critical for maintaining connectivity and facilitating information flow. We validate the effectiveness of C-PR through extensive experiments. The results demonstrate that C-PR outperforms traditional centrality-based and Page Rank methods in identifying critical nodes. Our findings offer fresh insights into the structural importance of nodes across diverse network configurations, highlighting the potential of incorporating geometric properties into network analysis.展开更多

Most maternal deaths from hemorrhage are preventable with support measures for clinical practice, such as: guiding protocols, training of professionals, organization and management of health services and provision of adequate conditions for the parturition process. Objective: To validate Rangel’s instrument with its application in the Maternity Ward of the General Hospital of Huambo, Angola. Methodology: This is a descriptive study with a quantitative approach. This is the sixth stage, called pre-test, of the Translation and Cultural Adaptation process. This instrument was sent for evaluation by the validators using the electronic data collection form named Google forms, with a seven-point Likert-type scale (from 7—totally agree to 1—totally disagree). The analysis was performed with the Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient index (>0.91) and the Content Validity Index (CVI > 0.98). Results: Of the 10 items of evaluation criteria of the instrument analyzed by the 20 validators, 100% of them obtained a Cronbach’s Alpha index rating of 0.91: clarity;coherence;scientific writing;relevance;sequence;uniqueness and updating. Coverage, item criticality and objectivity reached a Cronbach’s Alpha of 0.95. The Content Validity Index was 0.95 for coverage, coherence, item criticality, scientific writing, relevance and updating. Conclusion: Rangel’s instrument for nursing care aimed at preventing and controlling hemorrhage in the third period of birth, translated into Angolan Portuguese and validated by nurses, through the statistical results obtained in the validation, was considered reliable and necessary for clinical nursing practice in Huambo, Angola. .展开更多

文摘In a post-disaster environment characterized by frequent interruptions in communication links,traditional wireless communication networks are ineffective.Although the“store-carry-forward”mechanism characteristic of Delay Tolerant Networks(DTNs)can transmit data from Internet of things devices to more reliable base stations or data centres,it also suffers from inefficient data transmission and excessive transmission delays.To address these challenges,we propose an intelligent routing strategy based on node sociability for post-disaster emergency network scenarios.First,we introduce an intelligent routing strategy based on node intimacy,which selects more suitable relay nodes and assigns the corresponding number of message copies based on comprehensive utility values.Second,we present an intelligent routing strategy based on geographical location of nodes to forward message replicas secondarily based on transmission utility values.Finally,experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm in terms of message delivery rate,network cost ratio and average transmission delay.

文摘Fiber nonlinearity impairments in a 40-Gb/s coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(CO-OFDM)system are post-compensated for by a new method of fiber nonlinearity post-compensation(FNPC).The FNPC located before the CO-OFDM receiver includes an optical phase conjugation(OPC)unit and a subsequent 80-km-high nonlinear fiber(HNLF)as a fiber nonlinearity compensator.The OPC unit is based on a four wave mixing effect in a semiconductor optical amplifier.The fiber nonlinearity impairments in the transmission link are post-compensated for after OPC by transmission through the HNLF with a large nonlinearity coefficient.Simulation results show that the nonlinear threshold(NLT)(for Q>10 dB)can be increased by about 2.5 dB and the maximum Q factor is increased by about 1.2 dB for the single−channel 40-Gb/s CO-OFDM system with periodic dispersion maps.In the 50-GHz channel spacing wavelength-division-multiplexing system,the NLT increases by 1.1 dB,equating to a 0.7 dB improvement for the maximum Q factor.

文摘Photonic neural networks have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their ultra-high computational speed,broad bandwidth,and parallel processing capabilities.However,compared to conventional electronic nonlinear activa-tion function(NAF),progress on efficient and easily implementable optical nonlinear activation function(ONAF)was barely reported.To address this issue,we proposed a programmable,low-loss ONAF device based on a silicon micro-ring resonator capped with the Antimony selenide(Sb_(2)Se_(3))thin films,and with indium tin oxide(ITO)used as the microheater.Leveraging our self-developed phase-transformation kinetic and optical models,we successfully simulated the phase-transition behavior of Sb_(2)Se_(3)and three different ONAFs—ELU,ReLU,and radial basis function(RBF)were achieved according to discernible optical responses of proposed devices under different phase-change extents.Classification results from the Fashion MNIST dataset demonstrated that these ONAFs can be considered as appropriate substitutes for traditional NAF.This indicated the bright prospect of the proposed device for nonlinear activation function in future photonic neural networks.

文摘In this paper,we investigate a multi-UAV aided NOMA communication system,where multiple UAV-mounted aerial base stations are employed to serve ground users in the downlink NOMA communication,and each UAV serves its associated users on its own bandwidth.We aim at maximizing the overall common throughput in a finite time period.Such a problem is a typical mixed integer nonlinear problem,which involves both continuous-variable and combinatorial optimizations.To efficiently solve this problem,we propose a two-layer algorithm,which separately tackles continuous-variable and combinatorial optimization.Specifically,in the inner layer given one user association scheme,subproblems of bandwidth allocation,power allocation and trajectory design are solved based on alternating optimization.In the outer layer,a small number of candidate user association schemes are generated from an initial scheme and the best solution can be determined by comparing all the candidate schemes.In particular,a clustering algorithm based on K-means is applied to produce all candidate user association schemes,the successive convex optimization technique is adopted in the power allocation subproblem and a logistic function approximation approach is employed in the trajectory design subproblem.Simulation results show that the proposed NOMA scheme outperforms three baseline schemes in downlink common throughput,including one solution proposed in an existing literature.

文摘Identifying key nodes in complex networks is crucial for understanding and controlling their dynamics. Traditional centrality measures often fall short in capturing the multifaceted roles of nodes within these networks. The Page Rank algorithm, widely recognized for ranking web pages, offers a more nuanced approach by considering the importance of connected nodes. However, existing methods generally overlook the geometric properties of networks, which can provide additional insights into their structure and functionality. In this paper, we propose a novel method named Curv-Page Rank(C-PR), which integrates network curvature and Page Rank to identify influential nodes in complex networks. By leveraging the geometric insights provided by curvature alongside structural properties, C-PR offers a more comprehensive measure of a node's influence. Our approach is particularly effective in networks with community structures, where it excels at pinpointing bridge nodes critical for maintaining connectivity and facilitating information flow. We validate the effectiveness of C-PR through extensive experiments. The results demonstrate that C-PR outperforms traditional centrality-based and Page Rank methods in identifying critical nodes. Our findings offer fresh insights into the structural importance of nodes across diverse network configurations, highlighting the potential of incorporating geometric properties into network analysis.

文摘Multi-band optical networks are a potential technology for increasing network capacity.However,the strong interference and non-uniformity between wavelengths in multi-band optical networks have become a bottleneck restricting the transmission capacity of multi-band optical networks.To overcome these challenges,it is particularly important to implement optical power optimization targeting wavelength differences.Therefore,based on the generalized Gaussian noise model,we first formulate an optimization model for the problems of routing,modulation format,wavelength,and power allocation in C+L+S multi-band optical networks.Our objective function is to maximize the average link capacity of the network while ensuring that the Optical Signal-to-Noise(OSNR)threshold of the service request is not exceeded.Next,we propose a NonLinear Interferenceaware(NLI-aware)routing,modulation format,wavelength,and power allocation algorithm.Finally,we conduct simulations under different test conditions.The simulation results indicate that our algorithm can effectively reduce the blocking probability by 23.5%and improve the average link capacity by 3.78%in C+L+S multi-band optical networks.
文摘In the reading process and after reading of the scientific and technological English literature for postgraduates of engineering, there are several barriers like the understanding of the vocabulary, the analyzing the complex sentences and the grasping the whole texts. This paper tries to investigate the using condition of interactive reading strategy in reading scientific and technological English literature of postgraduates of engineering. The study reveals that postgraduates of engineering frequently using some of strategies of the interactive reading strategy, but the overall using condition is only in the average level, and is not so flexible.
文摘A temperature and acoustic impedance simultaneous sensor based on forward stimulated Brillouin scattering(FSBS)in highly nonlinear fiber(HNLF)with high sensitivity and high accuracy is proposed and demonstrated in this paper.High-order acoustic modes(HOAMs)are used to achieve individual or simultaneous measurement of the two parameters.Transverse acoustic waves(TAWs)involved in the FSBS process can efficiently sense the mechanical or environmental changes outside the fiber cladding,which will be reflected in a linear shift of the acoustic resonance frequency.By analyzing the frequencies of specific scattering peaks,the temperature and acoustic impedance outside the fiber cladding can be obtained simultaneously.The highest measured temperature and acoustic impedance sensitivities are 184.93 k Hz/℃and444.56 k Hz/MRayl,and the measurement accuracies are 0.09℃and 0.009 MRayl,respectively,which are both at desirable levels.We believe this work can provide potential application solutions for sensing fields involving temperature or acoustic impedance measurements.
文摘In the immediate postpartum period, women need to be observed by the obstetric nurse so that measures can be taken to prevent hemorrhages and reduce its complications. Most maternal deaths from hemorrhage are preventable with support measures for clinical practice, such as: guiding protocols, training of professionals, organization and management of health services and provision of adequate conditions for the parturition process. Objective: To validate Rangel’s instrument with its application in the Maternity Ward of the General Hospital of Huambo, Angola. Methodology: This is a descriptive study with a quantitative approach. This is the sixth stage, called pre-test, of the Translation and Cultural Adaptation process. This instrument was sent for evaluation by the validators using the electronic data collection form named Google forms, with a seven-point Likert-type scale (from 7—totally agree to 1—totally disagree). The analysis was performed with the Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient index (>0.91) and the Content Validity Index (CVI > 0.98). Results: Of the 10 items of evaluation criteria of the instrument analyzed by the 20 validators, 100% of them obtained a Cronbach’s Alpha index rating of 0.91: clarity;coherence;scientific writing;relevance;sequence;uniqueness and updating. Coverage, item criticality and objectivity reached a Cronbach’s Alpha of 0.95. The Content Validity Index was 0.95 for coverage, coherence, item criticality, scientific writing, relevance and updating. Conclusion: Rangel’s instrument for nursing care aimed at preventing and controlling hemorrhage in the third period of birth, translated into Angolan Portuguese and validated by nurses, through the statistical results obtained in the validation, was considered reliable and necessary for clinical nursing practice in Huambo, Angola. .

文摘Objectives:Teachers are facing unprecedented new challenges leading them to face an increasing number of tasks that are not part of their job,as well as having to cope with the additional skills acquisition that comes with non-traditional forms of teaching and learning,and increased work pressure leading to an increase in the rate of teachers leaving the profession.Therefore,this study aims to explore the mechanism of the career calling on job burnout through career adaptability and work engagement.Methods:This study conducted a cross-sectional survey of 465 primary and secondary school teachers(PSST)in China's Mainland from the perspective of work adjustment and used structural equation modeling(SEM)to examine the mediating roles of career adaptability and work engagement in the relationship between teachers’career calling and job burnout.Results:The results show that PSSTs are above average in career calling,career adaptability,and work engagement,while job burnout is below average.A significant positive or negative correlation exists between career calling,career adaptability,work engagement,and job burnout.The result of path analysis indicates that career adaptability and work engagement exert an indirect influence on the job burnout of PSST through three paths:namely,the independent intermediary role of career adaptability(EV=−0.144),the independent intermediary role of work engagement(EV=0.172)and the chain intermediary role of the two(EV=0.176).Conclusion:This study emphasizes the importance of career adaptability and work engagement in teacher development in regulating career calling and job burnout.Therefore,on the one hand,we think that if managers want to reduce teachers’job burnout,they need to pay more attention to teachers’career adaptability and work engagement,rather than relying solely on teachers’career calling.On the other hand,it is to remind teachers not to rely on their adjustment to adapt to the work,but also to need outside help as much as possible.
