In the design of photocathode, the internal electric field could be formed due to the graded Al compositional [Formula: see text] nanostructure, which can improve the top surface emission probability of carriers. In this paper, [Formula: see text] nanostructure array photocathode composed of two sub-layers is presented. Based on the finite element method, the influence of graded geometrical parameters on their optoelectronic characteristics is investigated. The results show that when the thickness of the sublayer is equal, the difference of the Al composition between the two sublayers of nanostructure is larger, the sub-layers are less, and the quantum efficiency is higher. The light capture ability of the photocathode can be enhanced by increasing the thickness and the array spacing of the first sublayer. Compared with the hexagonal cross-section structure, the light trapping effect and spectral response of the circular cross-section structure are better.

Abstract Mitochondria were isolated using sorbitol and high buffer concentration in the medium. X-ray diffraction patterns arising from the mitochondrial cristae-membrane were recorded in the fully dried state and in two different states in humidity. The Q-function evaluation of these X-ray dif­fraction diagrams resulted in electron density cross-section profiles, which consist of two main peaks of opposite sign and one, respectively two, smaller peaks. The total thickness of the membrane amounts to 120 Å in the dry and 140 Å to 160 Å in the wet state.An interpretation of the cross-section profile is tentatively proposed.

Vehicles moving across the railway are exposed to the dynamic reaction of unevenness of surface on those level crossing. This significantly influences on the increase of the acceleration as well as forces values transferred to the body of the car. These values depend to extent on the geometric parameters of level crossing as well as on the characteristics of the car tires and suspension. The paper presents the results of experimental tests of a small delivery vehicle crossing selected level crossings with a diversified geometric cross-section structure.

It is of high importance to be able to decouple a system to obtain the dynamic characteristics of its substructures; however, the necessary frequency response functions (FRFs) of the coupling interface are usually challenging to measure due to the limited accessible space and complex geometries. In this paper, a measurement technique in the decoupling process of a coupled system is proposed in order to obtain the FRFs at coupling interface. Specifically, a variable cross section rod is adopted to transmit the dynamic behavior of coupling interface. The proposed technique has three advantages: (a) the thick end with large cross section can provide enough area for applying excitation force like using impact hammer and/or setting up sensors; (b) the slender end with small cross section can break through the spatial limitation more easily; and (c) the convenience that no additional experimental setup is required but just using an available variable cross section rod. Vibrational equation of the variable cross section probe method is derived and then combined with the existing decoupling theories. Finally, the proposed probe method and the new decoupling theory combining probe theory are validated through numerical simulations (FEM) and laboratory experiments, respectively. The results show its great practicability in decoupling process especially in low frequency range.

Coal mine mobile refuge chamber, as the important equipment of underground refuge system, has a close relation to the life safety of the miners. At present, there are a lot of production refuge Chamber manufacturers, but they do not enjoy a unified standard in shape or size. This paper focuses on the establishment of the KJYF96/10 mobile refuge chamber model by Solidworks and adopts the structural finite element analysis by Simulation, drawing a conclusion of refuge chamber stress and displacement cloud chart. It is expected to offer an effective reference to improving the structure strength and reducing design costs.

A new method for analysis of scattering data from lamellar bilayer systems is presented. The method employs a form-free description of the cross-section structure of the bilayer and the fit is performed directly to the scattering data, introducing also a structure factor when required. The cross-section structure (electron density profile in the case of X-ray scattering) is described by a set of Gaussian functions and the technique is termed Gaussian deconvolution. The coefficients of the Gaussians are optimized using a constrained least-squares routine that induces smoothness of the electron density profile. The optimization is coupled with the point-of-inflection method for determining the optimal weight of the smoothness. With the new approach, it is possible to optimize simultaneously the form factor, structure factor and several other parameters in the model. The applicability of this method is demonstrated by using it in a study of a multilamellar system composed of lecithin bilayers, where the form factor and structure factor are obtained simultaneously, and the obtained results provided new insight into this very well known system.

Abstract Gamma-ray tomography is used for non-invasive studying of objects. To enable correct interpretation of such measurements, they need to be presented in analysis-friendly way. One method is to use ILST (Iterative Least Squares Technique) algorithm to visualize 1D detector data on a 2D grid, so that gammaray attenuation is visible with a resemblance to cross-section structure. However algorithm imperfections and thresholding do not always allow inferring shapes of the structure correctly. To remedy this, the analyses of the whole range of reconstructed values are to be used with a non-linear transformation function to visualize and emphasize density gradient.
