  • Suppose F is an arbitrary field. Let ${\mid}F{\mid}$ be the number of the elements of F. Let $T_{n}(F)$ be the space of all $n{\times}n$ upper-triangular matrices over F. A map ${\Psi}\;:\;T_{n}(F)\;{\rightarrow}\;T_{n}(F)$ is said to preserve idempotence if $A-{\lambda}B$ is idempotent if and only if ${\Psi}(A)-{\lambda}{\Psi}(B)$ is idempotent for any $A,\;B\;{\in}\;T_{n}(F)$ and ${\lambda}\;{\in}\;F$. It is shown that: when the characteristic of F is not 2, ${\mid}F{\mid}\;>\;3$ and $n\;{\geq}\;3,\;{\Psi}\;:\;T_{n}(F)\;{\rightarrow}\;T_{n}(F)$ is a map preserving idempotence if and only if there exists an invertible matrix $P\;{\in}\;T_{n}(F)$ such that either ${\Phi}(A)\;=\;PAP^{-1}$ for every $A\;{\in}\;T_{n}(F)\;or\;{\Psi}(A)=PJA^{t}JP^{-1}$ for every $P\;{\in}\;T_{n}(F)$, where $J\;=\;{\sum}^{n}_{i-1}\;E_{i,n+1-i}\;and\;E_{ij}$ is the matrix with 1 in the (i,j)th entry and 0 elsewhere.

  • Sensing characteristics for porous smart particle based on DBR smart particles were reported. Optically encoded porous silicon smart particles were successfully fabricated from the free-standing porous silicon thin films using ultrasono-method. DBR PSi was prepared by an electrochemical etch of heavily doped $p^{++}$-type silicon wafer. DBR PSi was prepared by using a periodic pseudo-square wave current. The surface-modified DBR PSi was prepared by either thermal oxidation or thermal hydrosilylation. Free-standing DBR PSi films were generated by lift-off from the silicon wafer substrate using an electropolishing current. Free-standing DBR PSi films were ultrasonicated to create DBR-structured porous smart particles. Three different surface-modified DBR smart particles have been prepared and used for sensing volatile organic vapors. For different types of surface-modified DBR smart particles, the shift of reflectivity mainly depends on the vapor pressure of analyte even though the surfaces of DBR smart particles are different. However huge difference in the shift of reflectivity depending on the different types of surface-modified DBR smart particles was obtained when the vapor pressures are quite similar which demonstrate a possible sensing application to specify the volatile organic vapors.

  • Purpose: This study was done to identify the relationship between critical thinking disposition and problem solving ability in nursing students, thereby providing basic data for nursing education. Method: A convenience sample was drawn from 161 nursing students. Data were collected from June 2008 to October 2008. Instruments used in the study were the California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory (CCTDI) developed by Facione & Facione (1992) and the Problem Solving Inventory (PSI) developed by Heppner & Petersen (1982). The collected data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe' test, Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression with SPSS 12.0. Results: The total mean score for CCTDI was 278.41 and PSI was 119.23. For general characteristics, there were statistically significant differences in CCTDI according to satisfaction with nursing majors (F=6.29, p=.00) and PSI according to academic achievement (F=3.45, p=.02) and marital status (t=2.43, p=.02). A statistically significant negative correlation was found between CCTDI and PSI. Critical thinking self-confidence, Analyticity and Inquisitiveness were significant predictors of PSI. Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that critical thinking disposition influences problem solving ability. Therefore, the findings provide significant basic data for nursing education and nursing practice.

  • The light harvesting efficiency is counted as an important factor in the power conversion efficiency of DSSCs. There are two measures to improve this parameter, including enhancing the dye-loading capacity and increasing the light trapping in the photoanode structure. In this paper, these tasks are addressed by introducing a macro-porous silicon (PSi) substrate as photoanode. The effects of the novel photoanode structure on the DSSC performance have been investigated by using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, photocurrent-voltage, UV-visible spectroscopy, reflectance spectroscopy, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements. The results indicated that bigger porosity percentage of the PSi structure improved the both anti-reflective/light-trapping and dye-loading capacity properties. PSi based DSSCs own higher power conversion efficiency due to its remarkable higher photocurrent, open circuit voltage, and fill factor. Percent porosity of 64%, PSi(III), resulted in nearly 50 percent increment in power conversion efficiency compared with conventional DSSC. This paper showed that PSi can be a good candidate for the improvement of light harvesting efficiency in DSSCs. Furthermore, this study can be considered a valuable reference for more investigations in the design of multifunctional devices which will profit from integrated on-chip solar power.

  • This study was carried out to establish a proper cultivation site and diagnose the drought tolerance of Pleurospermum camtschaticum, Cirsium setidens and Parasenecio firmus leaves by using pressure-volume curves. The result of ${\Psi}_o^{sat}$ and ${\Psi}_o^{tlp}$ were lower in Pleurospermum camtschaticum leaves. On the other hand, it appeared that $E_{max}$ of Pleurospermum camtschaticum was approximately six times higher than that of Parasenecio firmus. The values of $RWC^{tlp}$ is all above 88% showing that the function of osmoregulation is somewhat better, and Vo/DW, Vt/DW, Ns/DW of Pleurospermum camtschaticum leaves were approximately 2~4 times Lower than other ones. Thus, responses to water relations of Pleurospermum camtschaticum, Cirsium setidens and Parasenecio firmus such as ${\Psi}_o^{sat}$, ${\Psi}_o^{tlp}$, $E_{max}$, ${\Psi}_{P,max}$, $RWC^{tlp}$ were shown that the Pleurospermum camtschaticum leave was higher drought tolerance than Cirsium setidens and Parasenecio firmus leaves.

  • Certain interesting single (or double) infinite series associated with hypergeometric functions have been expressed in terms of Psi (or Digamma) function ${\psi}(z)$, for example, see Nishimoto and Srivastava [8], Srivastava and Nishimoto [13], Saxena [10], and Chen and Srivastava [5], and so on. In this sequel, with a view to unifying and extending those earlier results, we first establish two relations which some double infinite series involving hypergeometric functions are expressed in a single infinite series involving ${\psi}(z)$. With the help of those series relations we derived, we next present two functional relations which some double infinite series involving $\bar{H}$-functions, which are defined by a generalized Mellin-Barnes type of contour integral, are expressed in a single infinite series involving ${\psi}(z)$. The results obtained here are of general character and only two of their special cases, among numerous ones, are pointed out to reduce to some known results.

  • Private set intersection cardinality (PSI-CA) is a typical problem in the field of secure multi-party computation, which enables two parties calculate the cardinality of intersection securely without revealing any information about their sets. And it is suitable for private data protection scenarios where only the cardinality of the set intersection needs to be calculated. However, most of the currently available PSI-CA protocols only meet the security under the semi-honest model and can't resist the malicious behaviors of participants. To solve the problems above, by the application of the variant of Elgamal cryptography and Bloom filter, we propose an efficient PSI-CA protocol with high security. We also present two new operations on Bloom filter called IBF and BIBF, which could further enhance the safety of private data. Using zero-knowledge proof to ensure the safety under malicious adversary model. Moreover, in order to minimize the error in the results caused by the false positive problem, we use Garbled Bloom Filter and key-value pair packing creatively and present an improved PSI-CA protocol. Through experimental comparison with several existing representative protocols, our protocol runs with linear time complexity and more excellent characters, which is more suitable for practical application scenarios.

  • Let R be a ring, and let $\Psi$(R) be the ideal generated by the set {x $\in$R | 1 + sxt $\in$ R is unit-regular for all s, t $\in$ R}. We show that $\Psi$(R) has "radical-like" property. It is proven that $\Psi$(R) has stable range one. Thus, diagonal reduction of matrices over such ideal is reduced.
