Bifurcated overtones of one-way localized Fabry-Pérot resonances in parity-time symmetric optical lattices

Since the first observation of parity-time(PT) symmetry in optics, varied interesting phenomena have been discovered in both theories and experiments, such as PT phase transition and unidirectional invisibility, which turns PT-symmetric optics into a hotspot in research. Here, we report on the one-way localized Fabry-Pérot(FP) resonance, where a welldesigned PT optical resonator may operate at exceptional points with bidirectional transparency but unidirectional field localization. Overtones of such one-way localized FP resonance can be classified into a blue shifted branch and a red shifted branch. Therefore, the fundamental resonant frequency is not the lowest one. We find that the spatial field distributions of the overtones at the same absolute order are almost the same, even though their frequencies are quite different.     

浅海时变声速环境下的自适应匹配场定位算法实现*

针对浅海环境下声速剖面失配引起的匹配场处理器失配问题,提出了一种自适应匹配场定位算法在声速剖面时变环境下的实现方式。将先验声速剖面集简化为经验正交函数表示,结合蒙特卡洛方法与环境扰动约束算法对当下时刻的目标声源进行匹配场定位。本文以某次试验获取的连续20小时的声速剖面数据为研究对象,通过仿真试验对该算法进行验证,结果表明：在先验声速剖面集的半小时之后,利用自适应算法的距离和深度定位成功率较常规匹配场算法有较大提升,其中,深度正确定位概率相对较低。

Evolution of surface plasmon–polariton wave in a thin metal film: The modulation‐instability effect

The modulation instability development of intensive surface plasmon–polariton waves in a thin metal film is studied. It is shown both analytically and numerically that the modulation‐instability effect can give rise to spatial redistribution and longitudinal localization of surface plasmon–polariton wave energy on the subwavelength scale. Analytical expressions for the driving parameters of the modulation instability process ? nonlinearity and dispersion ? are derived. The impact of the film thickness and dielectric permittivities of constituents on the dynamics of surface plasmon–polariton wave transformation is considered. Numerical simulations show that in the layer structure comprising a silver film of subwavelength thickness a train of subpicosecond optical pulses with high repetition rate can be generated.

     

Linearized iterative method for determining effects of vessel attitude error on single-beacon localization

Single-beacon localization is an advanced (and relatively new) acoustic localization technique. The traditional single-beacon uses non-linear trajectories to localize underwater vessels, which has notable drawbacks in actual underwater operations. To mitigate the limitations associated with non-linear trajectories, we developed an innovative single-beacon localization with linear trajectories. The traditional linearized least square method is not suited to linear trajectories, so we developed a linearized iterative method that includes a virtual long baseline array to analyze the effects of vessel attitude error on single-beacon localization results. We simulated the forward velocity, number of beacons, distance measurement period, and vessel heading impact on horizontal localization. The results showed that according to the proposed analysis method, localization precision is strongly dependent on vessel attitude error.     

Modeling nonlinear Rayleigh wave fields generated by angle beam wedge transducers—A theoretical study

Nonlinear Rayleigh wave fields generated by an angle beam wedge transducer are modeled in this study. The calculated area sound sources underneath the wedge are used to model the fundamental Rayleigh sound fields on the specimen surface, which are more accurate than the previously used line sources with uniform or Gaussian amplitude distributions. A general two-dimensional nonlinear Rayleigh wave equation without parabolic approximation is introduced and the solutions are obtained using the quasilinear theory. The second harmonic Rayleigh wave due to material nonlinearity is given in an integral expression with these fundamental Rayleigh waves radiated by the wedge transmitter acting as a forcing function. Multi-Gaussian beam (MGB) models are employed to simplify these integral solutions and to extract the diffraction and attenuation correction terms explicitly. The effect of nonlinearity of generating sources on the second harmonic Rayleigh wave fields is taken into consideration; simulation results show that it will affect the magnitude and diffraction correction of the second harmonic waves in the region close to the Rayleigh wave sound sources. This research provides a theoretical improvement to alleviate the experimental restriction on analyzing the effects of diffraction, attenuation and source nonlinearity when using angle beam wedge transducers as transmitters.     

光在一维周期结构中的分布和局域化

运用传播矩阵对不同种类的一维周期结构(periodic structure, PS)中的光场分布和局域化进行了理论分析．结果表明: 当光以禁带频率入射到PS上时,绝大部分光被反射,在PS中是以衰减的驻波形式存在的．需要强调的是,当光以禁带带边频率入射时,光场在PS中有显著的局域化,在介质中引入适当的缺陷可以极大地增加这种局域化程度．另外,当光从掺杂有特定缺陷层的PS的左右两个不同界面入射时,可引起光场在PS中不同的分布,这对通过光的非线性调制实现的光学二极管非常有用.在线性吸收的PS中光强随光进入介质的厚度及消光系数的增加迅速衰减．     

Bayesian fusion of GNSS,ITS-G5 and IR–UWB data for robust cooperative vehicular localization

In the automotive domain, Cooperative Localization (CLoc) is a new promising paradigm that aims at outperforming conventional Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) in terms of positioning accuracy, robustness, and service continuity, by relying on Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications and hybrid data fusion. However, the growing number and the variety of the sensors aboard vehicles raise unprecedented challenges, especially in the context of distributed fusion approaches. This paper thus compares parametric and nonparametric Bayesian data fusion engines (e.g., based on cooperative variants of the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) and Particle Filter (PF), respectively), while validating a CLoc scheme suitable to Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs). More particularly, absolute position information from both onboard GNSS receiver and ITS-G5 V2V messages, as well as relative distance measurements based on the Impulse Radio–Ultra-Wideband (IR–UWB) technology, are combined into a single location solution that is hopefully more robust and more accurate than that of standalone GNSS. First, we investigate V2V ranging accuracy on a highway under real mobility conditions. In the same environment, we then provide offline validations of CLoc positioning, confirming significant performance gains through cooperation over conventional GNSS, even in case of poor initialization. In this specific context, the PF solution is thus shown to yield even better accuracy in comparison with EKF, thanks to its fine robustness against faced non-linear dynamics and non-Gaussian noise processes. Finally, we illustrate the resilience of the proposed solution under temporary GNSS denial.     

Intrinsic intermediate gap states of TiO2 materials and their roles in charge carrier kinetics

Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) is regarded as an important prototype photocatalytic material for several decades. The charge carrier kinetics determines the photocatalytic properties of TiO₂ materials; this is found to be greatly dependent on electronic structures. It has been revealed that the intrinsic intermediate gap states (intrinsic GSs) play a significant role in charge carrier kinetics that drive the photocatalytic processes of TiO₂ materials, which are not well summarized until now. Motivated by this thought, the purpose of this review focuses on physiochemical science of the intrinsic GSs of TiO₂ materials and their important role in charge carrier kinetics. We first give a summary on the chemical resources of the intrinsic GSs in TiO₂ and their physiochemical nature. Their general energy distribution, charge carrier population, and the associated thermodynamic properties are also elaborated from an overall viewpoint. We further carefully summarize and compare the experimental studies on the energy and the density distribution of the intrinsic GSs and discuss the associated chemical resources and charge carrier localizations. Trapping is the dominant function of intrinsic GSs in the charge carrier kinetics of TiO₂ materials. The significant effect of trapping on the transport, recombination, and interfacial transfer of charge carriers are also comprehensive summarized. Furthermore, the effects of charge carrier kinetics on photocatalytic performances are also discussed to some extents. Because of the importance of intrinsic GSs in modulating charge carrier kinetics, it is expected to increase the photocatalytic activity by engineering the intrinsic GSs, not only for TiO₂ materials, but also for the other semiconductor photocatalysts.     

Multi-velocity and multi-temperature model of the mixture of polyatomic gases issuing from kinetic theory

In this paper, we consider Euler-like balance laws for mixture components that involve macroscopic velocities and temperatures for each different species. These laws are not conservation laws due to mutual interaction between species. In particular, source terms that describe the rate of change of momentum and energy of the constituents appear. These source terms are computed with the help of kinetic theory for mixtures of polyatomic gases. Moreover, if we restrict the attention to processes which occur in the neighborhood of the average velocity and temperature of the mixture, the phenomenological coefficients of extended thermodynamics can be determined from the computed source terms.
