Based on the teleportation by quantum walk, a quantum secret sharing scheme with credible authentication is proposed. Using the Hash function and quantum local operation, combined with the two-step quantum walks circuit on the line, the identity authentication and the teleportation of the secret information in distribution phase are realized. Participants collaborate honestly to recover secret information based on particle measurement results, preventing untrusted agents and external attacks from obtaining useful information. Due to the application of quantum walk, the sender does not need to prepare the necessary entangled state in advance, simply encodes the information to be sent in the coin state, and applies the conditional shift operator between the coin space and the position space to produce the entangled state necessary for quantum teleportation. Security analysis shows that the protocol can effectively resist intercept/resend attacks, entanglement attacks, participant attacks, and impersonation attacks. In addition, the quantum walk circuit used has been implemented in many different physical systems and experiments, so this quantum secret sharing scheme may be achievable in the future.

In this study, in order to investigate the applicability of IPN structure to epoxy resin which has been widely used as electrical and electronic insulating materials, DC dielectric breakdown properties and morphology were compared and analyzed according to variation of network structure, using the single network structure specimen formed of epoxy resin alone, interpenetrating polymer network specimen formed of epoxy resin/methacrylic acid resin, and interpenetrating polymer network specimen formed of epoxy resin/methacrylic acid resin/polyurethane resin. As results of the measunnent of DC dielectric breakdown strength at 50[.deg. C] and 130[>$^{\circ}C$], IPN specimen formed of epoxn, resin 100[phr] and methacrylic acid resin 35[phr] was the most excellent, and which corresponded to the SEM phenomena. The effect of IPN was more remarkable at high temperature region than at low temperature region. It is supposed that the defect of epoxy resin, dielectric breakdown strength is lowered remarkably at high temperature region, be complemented according to introducing IPN method.

Nanofibrous membranes of poly(D,L-lactic acid)/chitin blend were prepared by electro spinning for a barrier of guided tissue regeneration. A miscible solution was obtained by the blending chitin-salt complex into 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone solution of poly(D,L-lactic acid). The properties of the blend were examined for nanofibrous fabrication. The viscosity of the blend solution was increased significantly due to chain entanglement despite the low ratio of chitin to poly(D,L-lactic acid). An interaction between two polymeric compositions was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction detected an appreciably ordered microstructure in the nanofiber of the blend. A membrane of thinner nanofibers was fabricated by electro spinning the chitin blend. The permeability of the membranes was examined using bioactive model compounds.

Quantum ghost imaging uses quantum mechanically entangled photons to form an image of an object. The quantum ghost image is also obtained by means of classical coincidence measurements with a classically correlated light source[1,2]. In this work we performed classical coincidence imaging experiments with classically correlated beams in their direction of propagation. We observed the ghost interference patterns which were usually made by quantum mechanically entangled states and we also analyze in detail the mechanism of the ghost imaging with classically correlated lights. We made? the classically correlated source with an Ar laser and controlled the direction of the light by a mirror? mounted on a small speaker.

Objective: To report three cases of monozygotic twinning after IVF-ET transfer. Methods: Private practice in two different assisted reproductive technology clinics. Results: Three intrauterine monozygotic twin pregnancies occurred after IVF-ET. One of them was complicated by cord entanglement, another is progressing normal pregnancy without complication and the other was had a normal pregnancy without complication and delivered twin by cesarean section. Conclusion: The reported prevalence of multiple gestations in IVF-ET is a approximately 30%, and it is only 2.7% to be monozygotic twinning in IVF-ET. We report three cases of monozygotic twining after IVF-ET.

Quantum cryptography is one of the most feasible fields using quantum mechanics. Therefore, quantum cryptography has consistently been researched, and a variety of cryptographic exchange method has been developed, such as BB84, etc. This paper explains a basic concept of quantum communications and quantum key distribution systems using quantum mechanics. Also, it introduces a reason of the development of quantum cryptography and attack scenarios which threaten the security of QKD. Finally, the experiment of this paper simulates quantum key attack by estimating qubit phases through a modeled quantum channel, and discusses needs of post-processing methods for overcoming eavesdropping.

Lecithin, a zwitterionic phospholipid, forms spherical reverse micelles in nonpolar organic solvents such as decane. The addition of monovalent ions like lithium chloride (LiCl) to lecithin organosols induces the transformation of organosols into organogels due to the entanglement of reverse cylindrical micelles. In this study, we investigate the effect of pentanol acting as co-surfactant on rheological properties of lecithin/LiCl mixtures. From rheological studies, we find that the viscosity and elastic property of organogels decreased upon the addition of pentanol to organogels. The decrease in viscosity and elastic property can be attributed to the shortening of reverse cylindrical micelles confirmed by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS).

Highly aromatic (HA) oils are common processing aids used in tire tread compounds. However, they often bleed and evaporate from the vulcanizates during tire use. Thus, the mechanical and dynamical properties of the tire decrease. To overcome this problem, we investigated nonfunctionalized liquid butadiene rubber (LBR-305, Kuraray) and center-functionalized liquid butadiene rubber (C-LqBR), polymerized by anionic polymerization. In addition to the liquid butadiene rubbers, p-tert-octylphenol (P-Resin) and C5 hydrocarbon (H-Resin) tackifier resins, which can induce entanglement of rubber compounds, were researched as a processing aid to solve the bleeding problem. Liquid butadiene rubbers have significantly reduced extraction loss by crosslinking with the main rubber chain. They have also increased the abrasion resistance and showed similar or better mechanical and dynamical properties against HA oils. However, resin compounds did not show differences in extraction loss compared to HA oil compounds; instead, they showed increased wet traction.

Near / Miss, Charles Bernstein's poetry collection, is replete with poems of distinctive styles and pluralistic forms in his idiosyncratic and artistic cosmos. With poetic antics, queerness, sarcasm, irony, and humor, the book showcases the motif of loss, chaos and trauma in postmodern America and the world. The multiplicity and multi-dimensional $M{\ddot{o}}bius$ effect in Near / Miss echo earlier Bernstein's poems, as well as poems by ancient and contemporary poets, with visual artists and musicians, and rabbis and Jewish philosophers. I argue that Near / Miss offers an apotheosis of echopoetics, which has been launched in his previous book Pitch of Poetry. Poems in the book reveal the dark and thick "pitch," namely the queer, the uncanny, the invisible, the disabled, the dispossessed, and the silenced poetic Other and make it explicit. The estrangement and alienation of $clich{\acute{e}}$ through diverse malaprops, mondegreens, non-sequiturs and fragmentations in Near / Miss aim at deconstructing the fixation of language so as to display the poetic Other. The motif of "nothingness" in echopoetics significantly multiplies its meanings. Nothingness mainly refers to the loss of origin, the defiance of tyranny, and the sublimity of the universe and the poetic Other. Melding his personal loss and misfortune, the current political discontent and the postmodern chaos in America and the world, nothingness in echopoetics resonates with American literary tradition and Zen with a healing and transforming power.

Environmental damage caused by marine plastic debris occurs and has become a major contributor to marine pollution. This study analyzed the current state of marine plastic debris pollution and proposed essential strategies to reduce damage. To assess the current state of pollution arising from marine plastic debris, this study investigated the properties of plastic debris, reviewed case studies of ecological impacts, and examined the inflow and distribution of marine plastic debris. The results of this study indicate that the major deleterious effects of marine plastics are entanglement and ingestion. In addition, the amount of plastic waste entering the sea was estimated to be 230 Mt in 2015 and may increase to 554 Mt in 2050. In this study, three key strategies were proposed to reduce damage and preserve the ecosystem, including: 1) removing plastic debris in the marine environment, 2) limiting the release of plastic debris to the marine environment, and 3) preventing damage to humans and marine life from plastic debris. To minimize the environmental damage caused by marine plastic debris, the proposed response strategies should be implemented in parallel.
