With the analysis of the most stable adsorption structures at different coverages, the mechanism of CaO(001)surface carbonating into CaCO_3 has been explored. At low coverages(≤1/3 ML), CO_2 molecule prefers sitting in parallel pattern on the CaO(001) surface, while the structure of the CaO(001)surface remains unchanged. At medium coverage(4/9 ~ 2/3 ML), the repulsive interactions between oxygen atoms of CO_2 become stronger, and the calcium carbonation structure appears on the CaO(001) surface. At high coverage( ≥ 7/9 ML), the structure of the CaO(001) surface is deeply damaged, and a few CO_2 molecules have penetrated into the surface and bound to the O atom of the second layer(sub-surface), eventually forming the layered structure of CaCO_3.Additionally, herein has discussed the simulation of HREELS and thermodynamical stability of these structures at different coverages.展开更多

Conventional TDE algorithms are usually efficient under white noise environments. In this paper, a joint noise reduction and -norm minimization method is presented to enhance TDE in colored noise. An improved subspace method for colored noise reduction is first performed. Then the time delay is estimated by using an -norm minimization method. Because the clean speech signal form the noisy signal is well extracted by noise reduction and the -norm minimization method is robust, the TDE accuracy can be enhanced. Experiment results confirm that the proposed joint estimation method obtains more accurate TDE than several conventional algorithms in colored noise, especially in the case of low signal-to-noise ratio. 展开更多
