However,the signal-to-noise ratio（SNR） of the collected MAET signal is still unsatisfactory for biological tissues with low-level electrical conductivity. In this study, the formula of MAET measurement with sinusoid-Barker coded excitation is derived and simplified for a planar piston transducer. Numerical simulations are conducted for a four-layered gel phantom with the 13-bit sinusoid-Barker coded excitation, and the performances of wave packet recovery with side-lobe suppression are improved by using the mismatched compression filter, which is also demonstrated by experimentally measuring a three-layered gel phantom. It is demonstrated that comparing with the single-cycle sinusoidal excitation, the amplitude of the driving signal can be reduced greatly with an SNR enhancement of 10 dB using the 13-bit sinusoid-Barker coded excitation. The amplitude and polarity of the wave packet filtered from the collected MAET signal can be used to achieve the conductivity derivative at the tissue boundary. In this study, we apply the sinusoid-Barker coded modulation method and the mismatched suppression scheme to MAET measurement to ensure the safety for biological tissues with improved SNR and spatial resolution, and suggest the potential applications in biomedical imaging.展开更多

The linear and nonlinear magnetoacoustic responses determined by the magnetic properties of MNPs have attracted more and more attention in biomedical engineering. By considering the relaxation time of MNPs, we derive the formulae of second harmonic magnetoacoustic responses(2H-MARs) for a cylindrical MNP solution model based on the mechanical oscillations of MNPs in magnetoacoustic tomography with magnetic induction(MAT-MI). It is proved that only the second harmonic magnetoacoustic oscillations can be generated by MNPs under an alternating magnetic excitation. The acoustic pressure of the 2H-MAR is proportional to the square of the magnetic field intensity and exhibits a linear increase with the concentration of MNPs. Numerical simulations of the 2H-MAR are confirmed by the experimental measurements for various magnetic field intensities and solution concentrations using a laser vibrometer. The favorable results demonstrate the feasibility of the harmonic measurements without the fundamental interference of the electromagnetic excitation, and suggest a new harmonic imaging strategy of MAT-MI for MNPs with enhanced spatial resolution and improved signal-to-noise ratio in biomedical applications.展开更多

A model of electrical impedance measurement during HIFU therapy was established using the temperatureimpedance relationship. Based on the simulations of acoustic pressure, temperature, and electrical conductivity, the impedance of the phantom was calculated and experimentally demonstrated for different values of acoustic power values and treatment time. We proved that the relative impedance variation（RIV） increases linearly with the increasing treatment time at a fixed acoustic power, and the relative impedance variation rate shows a linear relationship with the acoustic power.The RIV and treatment time required for HIFU treatment efficacy are inversely proportional to the acoustic power and the square of acoustic power, respectively. The favourable results suggest that RIV can be used as an efficient indicator for noninvasive temperature monitoring and efficacy evaluation and may provide new strategy for accurate dose control of HIFU therapy.展开更多

However, the innate nonlinear hysteresis characteristic of MRD may cause the nonlinear behaviors. In this work, a two-degree-of-freedom （2-DOF） MR suspension system was established first, by employing the modified Bouc-Wen force-velocity （F-v） hysteretic model. The nonlinear dynamic response of the system was investigated under the external excitation of single-frequency harmonic and bandwidth-limited stochastic road surface. The largest Lyapunov exponent （LLE） was used to detect the chaotic area of the frequency and amplitude of harmonic excitation, and the bifurcation diagrams, time histories, phase portraits, and power spectrum density （PSD） diagrams were used to reveal the dynamic evolution process in detail. Moreover, the LLE and Kolmogorov entropy （K entropy） were used to identify whether the system response was random or chaotic under stochastic road surface. The results demonstrated that the complex dynamical behaviors occur under different external excitation conditions. The oscillating mechanism of alternating periodic oscillations, quasi-periodic oscillations, and chaotic oscillations was observed in detail. The chaotic regions revealed that chaotic motions may appear in conditions of mid-low frequency and large amplitude, as well as small amplitude and all frequency. The obtained parameter regions where the chaotic motions may appear are useful for design of structural parameters of the vibration isolation, and the optimization of control strategy for MR suspension system.展开更多

The orbital angular momentum of AVs can be applied to the field of particle manipulation, which attracts more and more attention in acoustic researches. In this paper,by using the simplified circular array of point sources, dual coaxial AV beams are excited by the even-and odd-numbered sources with the topological charges of l_E and l_O based on the phase-coded approach, and the composite acoustic field with an on-axis center-AV and multiple off-axis sub-AVs can be generated by the superimposition of the AV beams for｜l_E｜ ≠ ｜l_O｜. The generation of edge phase dislocation is theoretically derived and numerically analyzed for l_E=-l_O. The numbers and the topological charges as well as the locations of the center-AV and sub-AVs are demonstrated, which are proved to be determined by the topological charges of the coaxial AV beams. The proposed approach breaks through the limit of only one on-axis AV with a single topological charge along the beam axis, and also provides the feasibility of off-axis particle trapping with multiple AVs in object manipulation.展开更多

A home-made erbium-doped fiber laser frequency comb with frequency stability of 5.0 × 10-13@1 s is employed for the light source. By using a periodically poled lithium niobate, the femtosecond pulse operating in 1556 nm is frequency-doubled to 778 nm to obtain the direct two-photon transition spectroscopy of thermal rubidium vapor. Through sweeping the carrier envelope offset frequency （fceo）, the 5S1/2 （F=2）→5D5/2 （F＂ = 4） two-photon transition line is clearly resolved and its absolute frequency is determined via the peak-finding of the fitting curve. After the frequency correction, the measured result agrees well with the previous experiment on this transition. The entire potential candidate of optical frequency standard for system configuration is compact and robust, providing a telecommunication applications.展开更多

Because of the isotropic propagation, magnonic devices based on perpendicular magnetization are attracting extensive interest. Here, we numerically demonstrate two magnonic filters with out-of-plane magnetization using micromagnetic simulations. The band-pass and the band-stop functions have been realized in two structurally modulated waveguides, respectively. The intensity of spin waves is manipulated when they arrive at the uniformly/non-uniformly magnetized modulators, which results in the variation of transmission coefficients. It is found that the proposed filters can work at multiple frequencies, which can be further adjusted by the external magnetic field. Our designed magnonic devices with Néel-type skyrmion could promote the development of spin wave computing using spin textures.展开更多

The total energy is initially equidistributed among some of the lowest frequency linear modes. For the Toda model with uniform on-site potentials, the energy spectrum keeps its profile nearly unchanged in a relatively short time scale. On a much longer time scale, the energies of tail modes increase slowly with time. Energy equipartition is far away from being attached in our studied time scale. For the Toda model with disordered on-site potentials, the energy transfers continuously to the high frequency modes and eventually towards energy equipartition. We further perform a systematic study of the equipartition time teq depending on the energy density ε and the nonlinear parameter α in the thermodynamic limit for the Toda model with disordered on-site potentials. We find teq∝ （1/ε）^a（1/α）^b, where b≈ 2a. The values of a and b are increased when increasing the strengths of disordered on-site potentials or decreasing the number of initially excited modes.展开更多

Based on the Stoner–Wohlfarth model, we show that the asymmetric barriers may lead to four kinds of dynamical process underlying the hysteresis-loop measurement. These kinds of dynamical processes are different in a topology-like property, which can be controlled by the orientation of the external field. In our study, a new analysis approach has been proposed to reveal the dynamical behaviors of magnetization reversal. With this approach, coercivity, exchange-bias field, and asymmetry of hysteresis loops can be quantitatively obtained.展开更多

文摘Broadband absorption of low-frequency sound waves via a deep subwavelength structure is of great and ongoing interest in research and engineering.Here,we numerically and experimentally present a design of a broadband lowfrequency absorber based on an acoustic metaporous composite(AMC).The AMC absorber is constructed by embedding a single metamaterial resonator into a porous layer.The finite element simulations show that a high absorption(absorptance A>0.8)can be achieved within a broad frequency range(from 290 Hz to 1074 Hz),while the thickness of AMC is 1/13of the corresponding wavelength at 290 Hz.The broadband and high-efficiency performances of the absorber are attributed to the coupling between the two resonant absorptions and the trapped mode.The numerical simulations and experimental results are obtained to be in good agreement with each other.Moreover,the high broadband absorption can be maintained under random incident acoustic waves.The proposed absorber provides potential applications in low-frequency noise reduction especially when limited space is demanded.

文摘As a kind of special acoustic field, the helical wavefront of an acoustic vortex（AV） beam is demonstrated to have a pressure zero with phase singularity at the center in the transverse plane. The orbital angular momentum of AVs can be applied to the field of particle manipulation, which attracts more and more attention in acoustic researches. In this paper,by using the simplified circular array of point sources, dual coaxial AV beams are excited by the even-and odd-numbered sources with the topological charges of l_E and l_O based on the phase-coded approach, and the composite acoustic field with an on-axis center-AV and multiple off-axis sub-AVs can be generated by the superimposition of the AV beams for｜l_E｜ ≠ ｜l_O｜. The generation of edge phase dislocation is theoretically derived and numerically analyzed for l_E=-l_O. The numbers and the topological charges as well as the locations of the center-AV and sub-AVs are demonstrated, which are proved to be determined by the topological charges of the coaxial AV beams. The proposed approach breaks through the limit of only one on-axis AV with a single topological charge along the beam axis, and also provides the feasibility of off-axis particle trapping with multiple AVs in object manipulation.

文摘The absolute frequency of 87Rb 5S1/2 （F=2）→5D5/2 （F＂ = 4） two-photon transition at 778nm is measured in an accuracy of 44kHz. A home-made erbium-doped fiber laser frequency comb with frequency stability of 5.0 × 10-13@1 s is employed for the light source. By using a periodically poled lithium niobate, the femtosecond pulse operating in 1556 nm is frequency-doubled to 778 nm to obtain the direct two-photon transition spectroscopy of thermal rubidium vapor. Through sweeping the carrier envelope offset frequency （fceo）, the 5S1/2 （F=2）→5D5/2 （F＂ = 4） two-photon transition line is clearly resolved and its absolute frequency is determined via the peak-finding of the fitting curve. After the frequency correction, the measured result agrees well with the previous experiment on this transition. The entire potential candidate of optical frequency standard for system configuration is compact and robust, providing a telecommunication applications.

文摘The spin-polarized band structures of an ultrathinheterostructure are calculated via first-principles density functional theory.The electron–phonon interaction and the superconducting properties of the ultrathinheterostructure are studied by using the fully anisotropic Migdal–Eliashberg theory powered by Wannier–Fourier interpolation.Due to the complex Fermi surface in this low-dimensional system,the electron–phonon interaction and the superconducting gap display significant anisotropy.The temperature dependence of the superconducting gap can be fitted by solving numerically the Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer(BCS)gap equation with an adjustable parameter α,suggesting that phonon-mediated mechanism as its superconducting origin.Large Rashba spin-splitting and superconductivity coexist in this heterostructure,suggesting that this hybrid low-dimensional system will have some specific applications.

文摘Most of the reported observations are about the dynamic properties of individual domain-walls in magnetic nanowires,but the properties of multiple stripe-domains have rarely been investigated.Here,we demonstrate a simple but efficient scenario for multiple domains injection in magnetic nanowires.The domain-chains(DCs),a cluster of multiple domains,can be dynamically generated with tunable static properties.It is found that the number of domains in a single DC can be dynamically adjusted by varying the frequency of microwave field(MF)and the period of spin-polarized current(SPC)intensity.The static properties of the DCs,i.e.,its length,spacing,and period between neighboring DCs,can be dynamically controlled by regulating the frequency of MF and the intensity of SPC.We have also discussed the possibility of using domain-chains as information carries,which provides a meaningful approach for flexible multi-bit information storage applications.

文摘Magnonics is a fascinating and emerging field, which mainly studies processing information with spin waves.Magnonic devices with in-plane magnetization have recently been realized. Because of the isotropic propagation, magnonic devices based on perpendicular magnetization are attracting extensive interest. Here, we numerically demonstrate two magnonic filters with out-of-plane magnetization using micromagnetic simulations. The band-pass and the band-stop functions have been realized in two structurally modulated waveguides, respectively. The intensity of spin waves is manipulated when they arrive at the uniformly/non-uniformly magnetized modulators, which results in the variation of transmission coefficients. It is found that the proposed filters can work at multiple frequencies, which can be further adjusted by the external magnetic field. Our designed magnonic devices with Néel-type skyrmion could promote the development of spin wave computing using spin textures.

文摘We study the dynamical energy equipartition properties in the integrable Toda model with additional uniform or disordered on-site energies by extensive numerical simulations. The total energy is initially equidistributed among some of the lowest frequency linear modes. For the Toda model with uniform on-site potentials, the energy spectrum keeps its profile nearly unchanged in a relatively short time scale. On a much longer time scale, the energies of tail modes increase slowly with time. Energy equipartition is far away from being attached in our studied time scale. For the Toda model with disordered on-site potentials, the energy transfers continuously to the high frequency modes and eventually towards energy equipartition. We further perform a systematic study of the equipartition time teq depending on the energy density ε and the nonlinear parameter α in the thermodynamic limit for the Toda model with disordered on-site potentials. We find teq∝ （1/ε）^a（1/α）^b, where b≈ 2a. The values of a and b are increased when increasing the strengths of disordered on-site potentials or decreasing the number of initially excited modes.

文摘To solve the difficulty of generating an ideal Bessel beam,an simplified annular transducer model is proposed to study the axial acoustic radiation force(ARF)and the corresponding negative ARF(pulling force)exerted on centered elastic spheres for acoustic-vortex(AV)beams of arbitrary orders.Based on the theory of acoustic scattering,the axial distributions of the velocity potential and the ARF for AV beams of different orders generated by the annular transducers with different physical sizes are simulated.It is proved that the pulling force can be generated by AV beams of arbitrary orders with multiple axial regions.The pulling force is more likely to exert on the sphere with a smaller k0a(product of the wave number and the radius)for the AV beam with a bigger topological charge due to the strengthened off-axis acoustic scattering.The pulling force decreases with the increase of the axial distance for the sphere with a bigger k0a.More pulling force areas with wider axial regions can be formed by AV beams using a bigger-sized annular transducer.The theoretical results demonstrate the feasibility of generating the pulling force along the axes of AV beams using the experimentally applicable circular array of planar transducers,and suggest application potentials for multi-position stable object manipulations in biomedical engineering.

文摘In an exchange-bias system, the barriers with intrinsic potential energy may be asymmetric due to unidirectional anisotropy. Based on the Stoner–Wohlfarth model, we show that the asymmetric barriers may lead to four kinds of dynamical process underlying the hysteresis-loop measurement. These kinds of dynamical processes are different in a topology-like property, which can be controlled by the orientation of the external field. In our study, a new analysis approach has been proposed to reveal the dynamical behaviors of magnetization reversal. With this approach, coercivity, exchange-bias field, and asymmetry of hysteresis loops can be quantitatively obtained.

文摘Based on the principles of the Hall effect for ultrasound excitation and wave propagation in a static magnetic field,the theory of ultrasound induced Hall voltage generation is derived in explicit formulae with consideration of the acoustic radiation for a planar transducer.It is proved by numerical simulations that the induced Hall voltage is mainly generated at the conductivity boundary and can be used to map the spatial variation of the conductivity value along the acoustic transmission path.Both the simulated Hall voltage and the reconstructed image show good agreement with the experimental results of Wen[Ultrasonic Imaging 20(1998)206,21(1999)186].The promising simulation results suggest the potential of implementing medical electrical impedance imaging by means of ultrasound induced Hall effect imaging.

文摘Super-resolution optical fluctuation imaging is dependent on the blinking frequency of fluorophores.Consequently,improvement of the photoluminescence(PL)blink frequency is important.This is achieved for 3C–SiC nanocrystals(NCs)by simply increasing the excitation power.Using an excitation of 488 nm with powers of 5μW to 50μW,individual 3C–SiC NC always exhibits PL blinking with a short on-state sojourn time(<0.1 s).A fast Fourier transform method is exploited to determine the PL switching frequency.It is found that the frequency of the bright state increases from 2 Hz to 20 Hz as the excitation power increases from 5μW to 50μW,which is explained by the Auger photonionization model.
