Charactering lidar optical subsystem using four quadrants method (2018)

Lidar is a kind of active optical remote sensing instruments , can be applied to sound atmosphere with a high spatial and temporal resolution. Many parameter of atmosphere can be get by using different inverse algorithm with lidar backscatter signal. The basic setup of a lidar consist of a transmitter and a receiver. To make sure the quality of lidar signal data, the lidar must be calibrated before being used to measure the atmospheric variables. It is really significant to character and analyze lidar optical subsystem because a well equiped lidar optical subsystem contributes to high quality lidar signal data. we pay close attention to telecover test to character and analyze lidar optical subsystem.The telecover test is called four quadrants method consisting in dividing the telescope aperture in four quarants. when a lidar is well configured with lidar optical subsystem, the normalized signal from four qudrants will agree with each other on some level. Testing our WARL-II lidar by four quadrants method ,we find the signals of the four basically consistent with each other both in near range and in far range. But in detail, the signals in near range have some slight distinctions resulting from overlap function, some signals distinctions are induced by atmospheric instability.
Approaching the Increasing Complexity of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Taxonomy (2014)

The advent of molecular targeted agents is changing the treatment of solid tumors. In non-small-cell lung cancer, compounds directed against oncogenic proteins offer novel therapeutic opportunities for a fraction of patients whose tumors harbor specific genetic defects. With the increased level of resolution achieved by high-throughput technologies, the taxonomy of lung cancer is rapidly changing. For instance, by cataloguing genetic abnormalities in squamous cell lung cancer the Cancer Genome Atlas Network revealed the existence of multiple molecular entities, each one characterized by specific molecular abnormalities, and by a different spectrum of activated/ inactivated molecular networks. Although this increased complexity could be perceived as a further drawback in effective anticancer therapy, on the other hand the combined interrogation of genomic and proteomic data is expected to provide the whole molecular map of each tumor, and to determine the information flow in the explored biological system. In particular, novel genetic and proteomic approaches are offering the opportunity for matching specific genetic defects and aberrant protein-protein interactions with active pathway-targeted inhibitors. Moreover, the isolation and characterization of a cellular pool endowed with stem-like traits, and able to recapitulate the parental disease in animals, is enabling investigators to recreate the individual patient tumor in the laboratory. In this article, we discuss how novel technologies and cellular and animal models, applied to lung cancer research, hold the potential to foster a new wave of biomarker-driven clinical trials.
Power Management of an Ultracapacitor/Battery Hybrid Energy Storage System in an HEV (2006)

To overcome the power delivery limitations of batteries and energy storage limitations of ultracapacitors, hybrid energy storage systems, which combine the two energy sources, have been proposed. A comprehensive review of the state of the art is presented. In addition, a method of optimizing the operation of a battery/ultracapacitor hybrid energy storage system (HESS) is presented. The goal is to set the state of charge of the ultracapacitor and the battery in a way which ensures that the available power and energy is sufficient to supply the drivetrain. By utilizing an algorithm where the states of charge of both systems are tightly controlled, we allow for the overall system size to reduce since more power is available from a smaller energy storage system
Comparative study of electrostatic binding vs. complexation of Cu2+ ions with water‐soluble polymers containing styrene sulphonic acid and/or maleic acid units or their sodium salt forms (2008)

Abstract The interaction of Cu 2+ ions with the homopolymer poly(styrene sulfonic acid) (PSSH), as well as with the copolymers of maleic acid (MAc) with styrene sulfonic acid (SSH) or vinyl acetate (VAc), was investigated in dilute aqueous solution through turbidimetry, potentiometry, viscometry, and spectrophotometry in the visible region. Cu 2+ ions were introduced either through neutralization with Cu(OH) 2 of the acid form of the (co)polymers (PSSH, P(SSH‐ co ‐MAc) and P(VAc‐ co ‐MAc)) or through mixing of the sodium salt form of the (co)polymers (PSSNa, P(SSNa‐ co ‐MANa) and P(VAc‐ co ‐MANa)) with CuSO 4 . Turbidimetry, potentiometry, and spectrophotometry revealed that the first carboxylic group of MAc or both carboxylate groups of MANa are involved in the complexation with Cu 2+ ions when neutralization with Cu(OH) 2 or mixing with CuSO 4 are applied, respectively. The increased values of the reduced viscosity observed mainly at the first stages of neutralization of P(VAc‐ co ‐MAc) with Cu(OH) 2 indicate that interchain polymer‐Cu 2+ complexation takes possibly place. Finally, the spectrophotometric behavior observed upon neutralization of P(SSH‐ co ‐MAc) with Cu(OH) 2 or mixing of P(SSNa‐ co ‐MANa) with CuSO 4 revealed that the strength of counterion binding by the sulfonate groups is, in fact, comparable with the complexation of Cu 2+ ions with the carboxylate groups of MAc. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

OPC and image optimization using localized frequency analysis (2002)

A method of assist feature OPC layout is introduced using a frequency model-based approach. Through low-pass spatial frequency filtering of a mask function, the local influence of zero diffraction energy can be determined. By determining isofocal intensity threshold requirements of an imaging process, a mask equalizing function can be designed. This provides the basis for frequency model-based assist feature layout. By choosing assist bar parameters that meet the requirements of the equalizing function, through-pitch focus and dose matching is possible for large two dimensional mask fields. The concepts introduced also lead to additional assist feature options and design flexibility.

Degradation model of high-nickel positive electrodes: Effects of loss of active material and cyclable lithium on capacity fade (2022)

Nickel-rich layered oxides have been widely used as positive electrode materials for high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries, but their degradation has severely affected cell performance, in particular at a high voltage and temperature. However, the underlying degradation mechanisms have not been well understood due to the complexity and lack of predictive models.Here we present a model at the particle level to describe the structural degradation caused by phase transition in terms of loss of active material (LAM), loss of lithium inventory (LLI), and resistance increase. The particle degradation model is then incorporated into a cell-level P2D model to explore the effects of LAM and LLI on capacity fade in cyclic ageing tests. It is predicted that the loss of cyclable lithium (trapped in the degraded shell) leads to a shift in the stoichiometry range of the negative electrode but does not directly contribute to the capacity loss, and that the loss of positive electrode active materials dominates the fade of usable cell capacity in discharge. The available capacity at a given current rate is further decreased by the additional resistance of the degraded shell layer. The change pattern of the state-of-charge curve provides information of more dimensions than the conventional capacity-fade curve, beneficial to the diagnosis of degradation modes. The model has been implemented into PyBaMM and made available as open source codes.
Comparison of Functional Outcomes of Total Knee Arthroplasty Using Two Different Single Radius Implants (2016)

Total knee arthroplasty is used as the treatment plan for patients with end-stage osteoarthrosis associated with severely affected function. Although TKA has been used for many years, some patients have reported overall dissatisfaction regarding the outcome. This may be due to the complexity of the joint design. In recent years, the concept of single-radius knee prosthetics is gaining more popularity as many studies have discussed biomechanical and clinical benefits of such design compared to traditionally used multi-radius implants. In this study, we report the outcome of 78 patients who were treated by TKA utilizing a relatively new single-radius implant, Unity. Results showed that all subjects reported good outcomes as expressed by significant improvement in their Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Scores at 1-year post-operative. The symptom, pain, and ADL subscores demonstrated significant improvement in patients with scores twice the pre-operative value, while the average improvement in sport and quality of life subscores showed even greater improvement with scores three times the pre-operative value.
Photohole Trapping Induced Platinum Cluster Nucleation on the Surface of TiO2Nanoparticles (2013)

The photocurrent response of TiO2 nanoparticles synthesized via the sol–gel process was studied in the presence of methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol. The nanocrystalline nature of photoelectrodes showed an important photocurrent in the presence of alcohol following the order methanol ≈ ethanol > isopropanol > H2O. This process mimics the photoelectrochemical response, and therefore a correlation of the photodeposition process of platinum nanoclusters on TiO2 particles in the presence of alcohol molecules was devised. The photodeposition mechanism of platinum nanoislands at the surface of a nanocrystalline TiO2 powder is discussed in the light of the photoelectrochemical results.

High affinity binding of ochratoxin A to plasma constituents. (1984)

The binding properties of ochratoxin A to human and porcine plasma constituents were studied in vitro. Ochratoxin A was shown to bind to other plasma constituents with a considerably higher affinity than the earlier known nonspecific binding to plasma albumins. The association constant for the high affinity macromolecule (s) in human plasma was found to be 2.3 X 10(10) M-1 and for porcine plasma 0.59 X 10(10) M-1. The macromolecule (s) to which ochratoxin A binds more specifically than to albumins have not been identified, but their molecular weights were estimated by gel filtration to be 20 000.
Subwavelength grating based metal-oxide nano-hair structures for optical vortex generation (2015)

An all-dielectric, subwavelength grated based metal-oxide nano-hair structure for optical vortex beam generation has been presented in the paper. The nano-hair structure fabricated with alternating layers of alumina/hafnia on a fused silica substrate has a high diffraction efficiency of ~90% around the design wavelength, λ(o) = 1.55 μm and is insensitive to the polarization of the incident optical beam. The phase in transmission of these devices are controlled by azimuthally varying the fill fraction of the subwavelength grating. Realization of phase optical elements in an all-dielectric platform, based on subwavelength gratings offering full 0-2π phase modulation, is important for miniaturization and integration of conventional refractive optical elements.

The input sensitivity is -10.3dBm and is comparable to despite the additional functionalities.
Positioning technique of wireless LAN terminals using RSSI between terminals (2005)

The IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN spreads very widely. The wireless VoIP technologies will accelerate spreading. In the environment in which almost all people take along their own wireless terminal, location information of terminals can be used as them of persons, and can support human collaborative work. We focus on the positioning technology of IEEE 802.11 devices. There are many researches of the technology already. Our target is providing precise relative location of IEEE 802.11 terminals with short site calibration process and no additional hardware. RSSI requires no additional hardware. However RSSI is affected by obstacles, multipath fading, etc. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of a prototype of proposed positioning system called WiPS. To improve the accuracy of relative location, WiPS uses RSSI between terminals. WiPS can be work well, if LOS path between terminals are available and distance between terminals are less than several meters. WiPS does not need LOS path between access point and each terminal. We show the result of empirical study using a prototype. The order of terminals can be obtained precisely, when terminals are in line.

Comparison of hydrolytic and non-hydrolytic atomic layer deposition chemistries: Interfacial electronic properties at alumina-silicon interfaces (2015)

We report the differences in the passivation and electronic properties of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) deposited on silicon via traditional hydrolytic atomic layer deposition (ALD) and non-hydrolytic (NH) ALD chemistries. Traditional films were grown using trimethylaluminum (TMA) and water and NHALD films grown using TMA and isopropanol at 300 °C. Hydrolytically grown ALD films contain a smaller amount of fixed charge than NHALD films (oxide fixed charge Qf Traditional = −8.1 × 1011 cm−2 and Qf NHALD = −3.6 × 1012 cm−2), and a larger degree of chemical passivation than NHALD films (density of interface trap states, Dit Traditional = 5.4 × 1011 eV−1 cm−2 and Dit NHALD = 2.9 × 1012 eV−1 cm−2). Oxides grown with both chemistries were found to have a band gap of 7.1 eV. The conduction band offset was 3.21 eV for traditionally grown films and 3.38 eV for NHALD. The increased Dit for NHALD films may stem from carbon impurities in the oxide layer that are at and near the silicon surface, as evidenced by both the larger trap state time constant (τTraditional = 2.2 × 10−9 s and τNHALD = 1.7 × 10−7 s) and the larger carbon concentration. We have shown that the use of alcohol-based oxygen sources in NHALD chemistry can significantly affect the resulting interfacial electronic behavior presenting an additional parameter for understanding and controlling interfacial electronic properties at semiconductor-dielectric interfaces.

Summary of the International Conference on Arabidopsis Research 2011, June 22-25, 2011 (2012)

This project provided participant support for the gathering of plant biologists at the International Conferences on Arabidopsis Research (ICAR) in 2011. Arabidopsis thaliana, the reference flowering plant, has been intensely studied over the last 20 years and has proven to be an ideal model for studying nearly all aspects of plant biology. The success of this research field has been greatly facilitated by the openness and collegiality of the community fostered through multiple international forums including the ICAR. Advances in basic and applied plant biology are featured at the meeting, which is the primary gathering point for this strongly integrated international community. The ICAR convenes plant researchers, allows discussion and dissemination of the latest research in plant biology, and facilitates dialog among those that may be separated by geography, career stage, and culture. This project focused on facilitating access by early career scientists that have reduced access to attend major meetings.
Multivariate analysis of the relationship between survival and the microstage of primary melanoma by clark level and breslow thickness (1993)

Decisions regarding therapy for patients with clinical Stage I melanoma should consider both Clark level and Breslow thickness of the primary lesion. When there is a discordance between the two methods of microstaging, the AJCC stage should be amended to reflect the least favorable of the two prognostic indicators.
Measurement ofσχc2B(χc2→J/ψγ)/σχc1B(χc1→J/ψγ)inpp¯Collisions ats=1.96  TeV (2007)

We measure the ratio of cross section times branching fraction, Rp=sigma chi c2 B(chi c2-->J/psi gamma)/sigma chi c1 B(chi c1-->J/psi gamma), in 1.1 fb(-1) of pp collisions at square root s=1.96 TeV. This measurement covers the kinematic range pT(J/psi)>4.0 GeV/c, |eta(J/psi)<1.0, and pT(gamma)>1.0 GeV/c. For events due to prompt processes, we find Rp=0.395+/-0.016(stat)+/-0.015(syst). This result represents a significant improvement in precision over previous measurements of prompt chi c1,2 hadro production.
A Randomized Trial of Docosahexaenoic Acid Supplementation During the Third Trimester of Pregnancy (2003)

In Brief OBJECTIVE To hypothesize that higher intake of docosahexaenoic acid, an n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid, would increase duration of gestation and birth weight in US women. METHODS This was a randomized, double-blind, controlled, clinical trial. Subjects were enrolled in an ambulatory clinic where they received prenatal care. This was a population-based sample. Most subjects received government assistance for medical care and most were black (73%). Subjects were enrolled between the 24th and 28th week of pregnancy and consumed docosahexaenoic acid (33 or 133 mg) from eggs until parturition. Gestational age and birth weight were the main study outcomes. Infant length and head circumference, preterm birth, and low birth weight were secondary outcomes. RESULTS Eighty-three percent of subjects completed the study (291 of 350 enrolled). No subject was discontinued for an adverse event. After controlling for important predefined risk factors and confounding variables, gestation increased by 6.0 ± 2.3 days (P = .009) in the higher docosahexaenoic acid group. Birth weight, length, and head circumference increased, but did not reach statistical significance (P = .06–.18), although the increases could be clinically important indications of enhanced intrauterine growth. No safety concerns were raised by the study. CONCLUSION Duration of gestation increased significantly when docosahexaenoic acid intake was increased during the last trimester of pregnancy. The increase in gestation was similar to that reported for interventions with much larger amounts of n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids Dietary docosahexaenoic acid supplementation during the third trimester of pregnancy extends gestation.
Guided Data Quality Improvement Through Direct/Indirect Interactions (2010)

There is unanimous agreement among researchers and practitioners alike on the importance of data quality for all applications and the unimaginable consequences of making decisions based on inconsistent, inaccurate or incomplete data (e.g. poor data quality in retail databases alone costs US consumers $2.5 billion annually). However, till recently, all data quality techniques focus on providing fully automated solutions, which are risky to count on, without e‐ciently and efiectively consider the end user feedback. In this thesis proposal, we present GDQI, a novel framework for Guided Data Quality Improvement that leverages direct and indirect interactions for data cleaning tasks. GDQI incorporates direct user feedback in the cleaning process to enhance and accelerate existing automatic techniques for data quality tasks (e.g. suggesting repairs, discovering data quality rules), while minimizing user involvement. User feedback can then be learned using a machine learning algorithm to minimize user’s efiort. The key challenge to this approach is to determine how and in what order to solicit user feedback to conflrm the suggestions with the objective of fast convergence to a better data quality. To this end, we introduce to determine which suggestions are most beneflcial to the cleaning process to consult the user for veriflcation and feedback. To rank potential suggestions for the user, we quantify the value of the suggestion in terms of (1) likely improvement in data quality using the concept of Value-OfInformation (VOI) from decision theory and (2) value to the learner using active learning. Moreover, we consider indirect interactions in the form of generated transactions log for improving the quality by deduplication (i.e., doing record linkage). We present a novel technique for record linkage that is based on entities’ behavior. Speciflcally, we use entities generated transactions log to extract entities’ behavior patterns and use this behavior information to identify entities that represent in fact the same real-world entity.
