    Link to publisher's homepage at http://www.elsevier.com/First-principles density-functional theory of Full-Potential Linear Augmented Plane Wave (FP-LAPW) within local density approximation (LDA) of the optical properties of B yAl xIn 1- x-yN systems (with x = 0.187 and y = 0.062, 0.125 and 0.187) has been performed. Substitutional atoms of Boron induced in small amounts into the (Al xIn 1-x)-cationic sublattice of AlInN affects the energy gap of BAlInN. The higher band gap of Al 0.375In 0.625N alloy can form a useful quantum well (QW) laser structure. A best choice of B-content, B yAl xIn 1-x-yN could be an alternative to Al xIn 1-xN. The results of accurate calculations of the band structures and optical properties show the better performance characteristics belong to the structure containing B-content (y) of 12.5%. The NaCl metallic B yAl 0.1875In 0.8125-yN has a direct character for y = 12.5%. The imaginary part of dielectric function, reflectivity, refractive index, absorption coefficient and optical conductivity are investigated well and provide reasonable results for optoelectronic devices applications

    Understanding Spirituality among Chinese College Students: Xin-Yang (信仰) and its Assessment

    In spite of the effort researchers have made, there still seems to be a lack of cultural appropriateness when it comes to the concept of spirituality. Therefore, the current author considers the cultural appropriateness in the process of developing a scale that measures Chinese college students’ level of spirituality. Three focus groups and face-to-face interviews were conducted to help understand the concept of spirituality among Chinese college students. Xin-Yang 信仰 is the Chinese word the current author decided to use and study among Chinese college students. After the pool of items is developed, a fourth focus group was held among the current researcher and a panel of experts in the field of psychology that enabled the researcher to establish face validity for the current scale. A pilot study was conducted to modify the pool of items. A sample of 2,307 college student participants were recruited online from five different provinces, autonomous regions, and direct-controlled municipality in China. Confirmatory factor analysis, item factor analysis, and structural equation modeling were performed with the data. The final Xin-Yang scale has three factors: characteristics, mental guidance, and relationship to others. Xin-Yang scale is a sound and helpful measurement. Xin-Yang seems to be an important construct to these Chinese college students in relationship to their psychological well-being. Specifically, Xin-Yang is significantly and positively related to hope, self-esteem, and self- efficacy. Xin-Yang is significantly and negatively related to psychological symptoms. In addition, Xin-Yang is significantly and positively related to spirituality. Relationships among these constructs were discussed. Limitations and implications were also discussed

    Near-capacity code design for entanglement-assisted classical communication over quantum depolarizing channels

    We have conceived a near-capacity code design for entanglement-assisted classical communication over the quantum depolarizing channel. The proposed system relies on efficient near-capacity classical code designs for approaching the entanglement-assisted classical capacity of a quantum depolarizing channel. It incorporates an Irregular Convolutional Code (IRCC), a Unity Rate Code (URC) and a soft-decision aided Superdense Code (SD), which is hence referred to as an IRCC-URC-SD arrangement. Furthermore, the entanglement-assisted classical capacity of an N-qubit superdense code transmitted over a depolarizing channel is invoked for benchmarking. It is demonstrated that the proposed system operates within 0.4 dB of the achievable noise limit for both 2-qubit as well as 3-qubit SD schemes. More specifically, our design exhibits a deviation of only 0.062 and 0.031 classical bits per channel use from the corresponding 2-qubit and 3-qubit capacity limits, respectively. The proposed system is also benchmarked against the classical convolutional and turbo codes
