A circular electron positron collider (CEPC) will adopt hundreds of 650-MHz superconducting cavities with high quality factor (Q) and accelerating gradient (Eacc). Two 650-MHz single-cell cavities made of fine-grain niobium were first treated via buffered chemical polishing (BCP), which was easy and convenient. However, the vertical test results could not meet the specification of the CEPC (4 × 1010 at 22 MV/m). Therefore, electro-polishing (EP) of 650-MHz single-cell cavities was conducted, which was complicated but remarkably effective. Both 650-MHz single-cell cavities achieved state-of-the-art gradients of 35 MV/m after the EP process, which is extremely high for large elliptical cavities (frequency < 1 GHz). One cavity achieved an intrinsic quality factor (Q0) of 4.5 × 1010 at 22.0 MV/m, which was higher than the CEPC spec. The other cavity obtained a lower Q0 of 3.4 × 1010 at 22.0 MV/m, which may have resulted from the cancellation of high-temperature annealing.

AbstractHigh quality-factor (Q) optical resonators are a key component for ultra-narrow linewidth lasers, frequency stabilization, precision spectroscopy and quantum applications. Integration in a photonic waveguide platform is key to reducing cost, size, power and sensitivity to environmental disturbances. However, to date, the Q of all-waveguide resonators has been relegated to below 260 Million. Here, we report a Si3N4 resonator with 422 Million intrinsic and 3.4 Billion absorption-limited Qs. The resonator has 453 kHz intrinsic, 906 kHz loaded, and 57 kHz absorption-limited linewidths and the corresponding 0.060 dB m−1 loss is the lowest reported to date for waveguides with deposited oxide upper cladding. These results are achieved through a careful reduction of scattering and absorption losses that we simulate, quantify and correlate to measurements. This advancement in waveguide resonator technology paves the way to all-waveguide Billion Q cavities for applications including nonlinear optics, atomic clocks, quantum photonics and high-capacity fiber communications.

Medium-temperature (mid-T) furnace baking was conducted at 650 MHz superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavity for circular electron positron collider (CEPC), which enhanced the cavity unloaded quality factor (Q0) significantly. In the vertical test (2.0 K), Q0 of 650 MHz cavity reached 6.4 × 1010 at 30 MV/m, which is remarkably high at this unexplored frequency. Additionally, the cavity quenched at 31.2 MV/m finally. There was no anti-Q-slope behavior after mid-T furnace baking, which is characteristic of 1.3 GHz cavities. The microwave surface resistance (RS) was also studied, which indicated both very low Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer (BCS) and residual resistance. The recipe of cavity process in this paper is simplified and easy to duplicate, which may benefit the SRF community.

AbstractWe optimize a silica-encapsulated silicon L3 photonic crystal cavity for ultra-high quality factor by means of a global optimization strategy, where the closest holes surrounding the cavity are varied to minimize out-of-plane losses. We find an optimal value of $$Q_c=4.33\times 10^7$$ Q c = 4.33 × 10 7 , which is predicted to be in the 2 million regime in presence of structural imperfections compatible with state-of-the-art silicon fabrication tolerances.

To improve the read performance of RFID tags,improve the quality factor is very important. Firstly,from theory and practical, confirmed that quality factor Q is very important for RFID tags,a higher Q means the tag could have a good performance. Then,through calculations and simulation,analysis the influence factors of Q. With simulation figures show that length, width, space, thickness of the tags coil all affect the Q,but when manufacturing of tags , the control of manufacturing quality and accuracy is very difficultly. Finally, shows many figures about tags manufacturing quality and accuracy of manufacturing which have lower Q and badly read performance.

Abstract Stab-protective clothing is the most important component of safety equipment and it helps to save the lives of its wearers; therefore, it is designed to resist knife, nail, or needle attacks, especially to the upper body. In this paper, the essential requirements for stab-resistant armor are investigated based on an in-depth review of previous research and prototype test results. The combination of protection and comfort in armor vests is a particularly challenging task. Review of the state of the art technology responsible for the manufacture of stab-resistant clothes has revealed that their design and development should encompass the elements of comfort, freedom of movement, permeability, absorption, evaporation, and weight reductions to ensure excellent ergonomics and high wear comfort. The design as well as the production, weight, thickness, material types and properties, and the arrangement of scales determine the level of protection and comfort offered by stab-resistant vests. Currently, the production of stab-proof gear-based 3D printing technology is evaluated, using lightweight materials (aramid) in the form of segmented scales inspired by nature. As the protection performance and wear comfort of stab-proof gear is enhanced, the willingness of security, control, transport, custom, and correction officers to wear them can be significantly increased in an endeavor to ensure that fatal injuries will decrease significantly.

AbstractData integration of single-cell measurements is critical for understanding cell development and disease, but the lack of correspondence between different types of measurements makes such efforts challenging. Several unsupervised algorithms can align heterogeneous single-cell measurements in a shared space, enabling the creation of mappings between single cells in different data domains. However, these algorithms require hyperparameter tuning for high-quality alignments, which is difficult in an unsupervised setting without correspondence information for validation. We present Single-Cell alignment using Optimal Transport (SCOT), an unsupervised learning algorithm that uses Gromov Wasserstein-based optimal transport to align single-cell multi-omics datasets. We compare the alignment performance of SCOT with state-of-the-art algorithms on four simulated and two real-world datasets. SCOT performs on par with state-of-the-art methods but is faster and requires tuning fewer hyperparameters. Furthermore, we provide an algorithm for SCOT to use Gromov Wasserstein distance to guide the parameter selection. Thus, unlike previous methods, SCOT aligns well without using any orthogonal correspondence information to pick the hyperparameters. Our source code and scripts for replicating the results are available at https://github.com/rsinghlab/SCOT.

AbstractK-mer counting has many applications in sequencing data processing and analysis. However, sequencing errors can produce many false k-mers that substantially increase the memory requirement during counting. We propose a fast k-mer counting method, CQF-deNoise, which has a novel component for dynamically identifying and removing false k-mers while preserving counting accuracy. Compared with four state-of-the-art k-mer counting methods, CQF-deNoise consumed 49-76% less memory than the second best method, but still ran competitively fast. The k-mer counts from CQF-deNoise produced cell clusters from single-cell RNA-seq data highly consistent with CellRanger but required only 5% of the running time at the same memory consumption, suggesting that CQF-deNoise can be used for a preview of cell clusters for an early detection of potential data problems, before running a much more time-consuming full analysis pipeline.
