Published: April 2013

We analyze via theoretical approaches and molecular dynamics simulations the collective mode structure of strongly coupled two-dimensional binary Yukawa systems, for selected density, mass, and charge ratios, both in the liquid and crystalline solid phases. Theoretically, the liquid phase is described through the quasilocalized charge approximation (QLCA) approach, while in the crystalline phase we study the centered honeycomb and the staggered rectangular crystal structures through the standard harmonic phonon approximation. We identify "longitudinal" and "transverse" acoustic and optic modes and find that the longitudinal acoustic mode evolves from its weakly coupled counterpart in a discontinuous nonperturbative fashion. The low-frequency acoustic excitations are governed by the oscillation frequency of the average atom, while the high-frequency optic excitation frequencies are related to the Einstein frequencies of the systems.

Complex control of polaritons based on optical Stark potential.

J Chem Phys

December 2024

School of Information and Communication Engineering, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu 611731, China.

Effectively controlling exciton-polaritons is crucial for advancing them in optical computation. In this work, we propose utilizing the valley-selective optical Stark effect (OSE) as an all-optical way to achieve the spatiotemporal control of polariton flow. We demonstrate the polarization-selective concentration of polaritons at pre-determined locations by wavefront shaping of the polaritons through an in-plane bar-code potential induced by the OSE, which helps overcome the intra-cavity disorder in potential distribution.

The quantitative detection of HO is of great significance for preventing the occurrence of diseases. In this work, an electrochemical biosensor for detecting HO was constructed through a step-by-step modification method. The PDEA-HRP/MXene/PG biosensor (PDEA = poly(N,N-dimethyl acrylamide), HRP = horseradish peroxidase, PG = pyrolytic graphite) was prepared with two-dimensional metal carbide (MXene) nano materials as the inner layer and PDEA-HRP hydrogel as the outer layer for the detection of HO.

Analytical Design and Polyphase Implementation Technique for 2D Digital FIR Differentiators.

Sensors (Basel)

December 2024

Faculty of Electronics, Telecommunications and Information Technology, Gheorghe Asachi Technical University of Iaşi, 700506 Iaşi, Romania.

In this work, an analytical method in the frequency domain is proposed for the design of two-dimensional digital FIR differentiators. This technique uses an approximation based on two methods: the Chebyshev series and the Fourier series, which, finally, lead to a trigonometric polynomial, which is a remarkably precise approximation of the transfer function of the ideal differentiator. The digital differentiator is applied to three test images, one greyscale image and two binary images, and simulation results show its performance in the processing task.

We hypothesized that persistent lifetime (PLT) images could represent tumor imaging traits, locations, and persistent contrasts of topological components (connected and hole components) corresponding to gene mutations such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant signs. We aimed to develop a topological radiogenomic approach using PLT images to identify EGFR mutation-positive patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The PLT image was newly proposed to visualize the locations and persistent contrasts of the topological components for a sequence of binary images with consecutive thresholding of an original computed tomography (CT) image.
