Direct Generation of Fine Bi2WO6 Nanocrystals on g‐C3N4 Nanosheets for Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity
Authors: Yin Wenjie , Bai Song , Zhong Yijun , Li Zhengquan , Xie Yi 
Published: March 2016

AbstractGraphitic carbon nitride (g‐C3N4) coupled with Bi2WO6 is a promising Type II heterojunction, but it is still difficult to obtain uniform nanocomposites of these materials with the present assembly methods. Here we employ g‐C3N4 nanosheets saturated with Bi3+ ions to provide numerous and widespread nucleation sites for the growth of Bi2WO6 nanocrystals. As a result, g‐C3N4 nanosheets loaded with fine and controllable amount of Bi2WO6 nanocrystals are produced. The g‐C3N4/Bi2WO6 nanocomposites exhibit significantly enhanced photocatalytic activity for RhB degradation under visible‐light irradiation. Particularly, the g‐C3N4/70 % Bi2WO6 nanocomposite achieves the highest photocatalytic activity, and the average rate constant is almost 5 and 9 times higher than those of bare g‐C3N4 and Bi2WO6, respectively. Moreover, the composite exhibits high photocatalytic stability in cycling tests.
A Design Approach to Linear‐Phase FIR Filters with Odd‐Symmetric Transition Bands Using Piecewise Exponential Functions
Authors: SAITO HIROTO 
Published: March 2016

SUMMARYThis paper proposes a novel method for designing linear‐phase finite‐impulse response digital filters with an asymmetric transition band. The proposed filters use a form of piecewise exponential functions in the frequency domain where transition characteristics are determined by giving only two fixed feature points. The design method was evaluated in two ways. First, we evaluated a designed asymmetric transition band filter, and the results revealed that evaluated errors in the proposed filters were equivalent to well‐known existing filters. Then, it was shown that a three‐channel filter bank with an asymmetric transition band and linear‐phase property could be implemented.

Published: March 2016

SUMMARYWe designed and evaluated ASICs (application‐specific integrated circuits) for a human activity monitoring system in order to reduce total power consumption. The ASIC extracts the HR from the measured electrocardiogram (ECG) raw signal. To create an ASIC with ultra‐low power consumption, we used a novel algorithm based on fuzzy logic that is very simple and requires minimal processing power. The fabricated ASIC shows sufficient functionality and a power level as low as 2 W. A total of 85% of the power consumption in microprocessing unit (MPU) processing was cut by using the heart rate extraction ASIC.

A System for Recommending Essential Visual Perception Information in Life Monitoring Using Air Pollution Data

Published: March 2016

SUMMARYLife monitoring systems with air pollution data have been developed for solitary elderly people. However, the existing systems obtain unnecessary information that invades their privacy. In addition, since degrees of air pollution change in distinctive ways due to the effect of home environment and airflow conditions, it is difficult for people who have no expert knowledge to identify the activities of their daily living (ADL). To solve the problems above, this paper presents a system to select useful information that is required to identify ADL. Experimental results have shown that the proposed system achieves 77.3% identification accuracy. Besides, compared with the case when 10 users were asked to identify ADL without the proposed system, the identification accuracy has increased by 11.3% with the proposed system.
Method for Fabricating Multilevel Interconnection Structures Using Differential Delamination Energies between Metal and Silicon Oxide Thin Films
Authors: AONO TAKANORI , IWASAKI TOMIO , YOSHIMURA YASUHIRO , NAKAYAMA YOSHINORI 
Published: March 2016

SUMMARYA method for fabricating multilevel interconnection structures using differential delamination energies (adhesion strength) between metal and silicon oxide thin films has been developed. When the selectivity of the delamination energies between the metal and the silicon oxide thin films sets on the wiring, the silicon oxide thin film can be released on the low delamination energy area and can be held on the high delamination energy area by using ultrasonic waves. The delamination energies are calculated by using a molecular dynamics simulation. The delamination energies between chromium, titanium, and nickel and silicon oxide thin films are larger than those of copper and gold thin films. Chromium, titanium, and nickel are applied as an adhesion layer with silicon oxide, and copper and gold are applied as a release layer from silicon oxide. The results are applied to the process for fabricating the multilevel interconnection structures, and the release and adhesive areas of silicon oxide thin film can be fabricated on the wiring by applying ultrasonic waves. With this method, the lower wiring and the contact areas of multilevel interconnection structures can be easily fabricated.

AbstractBackgroundTelomere length <1st percentile‐for‐age in leukocyte subsets by flow cytometry with fluorescence in situ hybridization (flow FISH) is highly sensitive and specific in diagnosing patients with dyskeratosis congenita (DC), a telomere biology disorder.MethodsWe evaluated the clinical utility of the high‐throughput quantitative real‐time PCR (qPCR) relative telomere length (RTL) measurement as a diagnostic test for DC in patients with a priori clinical and/or genetic DC diagnoses. We calculated the sensitivity and specificity of RTL at different age‐specific percentile cutoffs in 31 patients with DC and 51 mutation‐negative relatives, and evaluated RTL difference by disease genotype.ResultsqPCR RTL <1st percentile‐for‐age failed to identify more than 60% of the patients already known to have DC (sensitivity = 39%, specificity = 98%). Three‐quarters of DC patients had RTL below the 10th percentile‐for‐age (sensitivity = 74%), as did 12% of the unaffected relatives (specificity = 88%).ConclusionsOur findings suggest that the qPCR RTL method is not optimal for diagnosing DC. In light of these limitations, leukocyte flow FISH telomere length remains the recommended molecular test for diagnosing DC.
Oscillatory interaction between two like‐charged nanoparticles induced by polyelectrolyte brush–solvent interface
Authors: Lian Zengju , Qi Shuanhu 
Published: March 2016

ABSTRACTWe use two‐dimensional (2D) self‐consistent field theory to study the effective interactions between two like‐charged cylindrical nanoparticles mediated by an oppositely weakly charged polyelectrolyte brush in a solvent solution. In a poor solvent, where a sharp brush–solvent interface forms, an oscillatory interaction is observed when two nanoparticles are both located at the brush–solvent interface. This oscillatory interaction depends on the penetration depths of the particles and their geometric orientations with respect to the substrate. When the particles are both immersed in the brush and/or the particles are oriented vertically or diagonally with large angles to the substrate, the oscillatory behavior disappears. We interpret our findings by analyzing in detail the contributions to the free energy from electrostatic interaction, nonelectrostatic interaction, and entropies, separately. Briefly, the deformations of the interface and the ion layers formed in the vicinity of the interface are responsible for this oscillatory behavior. In a good solvent, where the narrow brush–solvent interface vanishes, the effective particle–particle interactions behave like that for both particles immersed into the brush with poor solvent. They are found to be repulsive. The influences of the particle size, grafting density, and amount of charges and ions are also briefly discussed. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.
