EDSCSO aims to solve the problems of the original SCSO, such as the limited diversity of the population, low efficiency of solving complex functions, and ease of falling into a local optimal solution. First, an escape mechanism was proposed to balance the exploration and exploitation of the algorithm. Second, a random elite cooperative guidance strategy was used to utilize the elite population to guide the general population to improve the convergence speed of the algorithm. Finally, the dual-path differential perturbation strategy is used to continuously perturb the population using two differential variational operators to enrich population diversity. EDSCSO obtained the best average fitness for 27 of 39 test functions in the IEEE CEC2017 and IEEE CEC2019 test suites, indicating that the algorithm is an efficient and feasible solution for complex optimization problems. In addition, EDSCSO is applied to optimize the three-dimensional wireless sensor network coverage as well as the unmanned aerial vehicle path planning problem, and it provides optimal solutions for both problems.

Following this, the AHA algorithm is employed to optimize the input weights and hidden layer biases of the ELM, leading to the development of the AHA-ELM fault classification model. Ultimately, the principal components identified by AHA-KPCA serve as inputs for the simulation verification of the AHA-ELM model.

The cell is designed as a sample holder to measure thin films of molecules adsorbed on a metal substrate under a specific gaseous atmosphere. The dimensions of the cell are chosen in such a way that it can be transferred into a glovebox via the standard entrance port (Ø150 mm), allowing the investigation of air-sensitive molecules under an inert-gas atmosphere. The cell has two hose connections through which the gas atmosphere can be varied as desired. This also allows for studying the reactivity of the adsorbed structures toward the surrounding gas in situ and in a (potentially) time-dependent fashion. Furthermore, the metal substrate can be irradiated via an exposure window to investigate the influence of light on the adsorbed molecules and/or their reactivity. Using the polarization-modulation (PM-) IRRAS technique along with the described gas cell, an air-sensitive molybdenum(0) tricarbonyl complex adsorbed on an Au(111) surface is investigated.

In this study, instead of using the conventional design of the shim tray slot, we propose a dedicated passive shimming tray tailored for 3T cryogen-free animal MRI superconducting magnets. Passive shimming experiments were conducted to evaluate the performance of this novel design, in which we were able to improve the peak-to-peak magnetic field homogeneity within the 180 mm diameter imaging region, reducing peak-to-peak (p-p) variation from 349.35 ppm to 19.08 ppm. Furthermore, the p-p homogeneity of the magnetic field measured at the imaging area with a diameter of spherical volume (DSV) of 160 mm reached 8.67 ppm. In addition, we strictly controlled the residual magnetic force of the shim tray to ensure its accurate placement.

The spatial resolution and field sensitivity can be significantly improved by measuring in vacuum conditions. This improvement originates from the higher quality-factor (Q-factor) of the cantilever's oscillation in vacuum compared to ambient conditions. However, while high Q-factors are desirable as they directly enhance the magnetic measurement signal, they pose a challenge when performing standard MFM two-pass (lift) mode measurements. At high Q-factors, amplitude-based topography measurements become impossible, and the MFM phase response behaves non-linearly. Here, we present a modified two-pass mode implementation in a vacuum atomic force microscope that addresses these issues. By controlling the Q-factor in the first pass and using a phase-locked loop technique in the second pass, high Q-factor measurements in vacuum are enabled. Measuring the cantilever's frequency shift instead of the phase shift eliminates the issue of emerging nonlinearities. The improvements in MFM signal-to-noise ratio are demonstrated using a nano-patterned magnetic sample. The elimination of non-linear responses is highlighted through measurements performed on a well-characterized multilayer reference sample. Finally, we discuss a technique that avoids topography-induced artifacts by following the average sample slope. The newly developed, sensitive, and distortion-free high quality-factor two-pass mode has the potential to be widely implemented in commercial setups, facilitating high-resolution MFM measurements and advancing studies of modern magnetic materials.</p>","PeriodicalId":21111,"journal":{"name":"Review of Scientific Instruments","volume":"95 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142626872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
