Multichannel double-polarization bandpass optical filter utilizing evanescent wave

A multichannel double-polarization bandpass optical filter, which has the performance of variable channel interval, is theoretically proposed. The filter consists of a stack of two one-dimensional photonic crystals (1D PCs). Based on the resonant couple of evanescent waves localized at the interfaces between neighboring layers, the linear transmission properties of the filter are numerically simulated by the transfer matrix method. The simulation results show that channel number of the filter can be changed by varying the thickness of the middle layer in the centrosymmetric 1D PC structure, while the bandwidth and wavelength of the channel can be adjusted by the incident angle of light. This work may be helpful in designing multichannel double-polarization bandpass optical filter in optical communication systems.     

Effect of SnI2 on the thermal and optical properties of Ge–Se–Te glasses

A systematic series of (Ge₂₀Se₁₅Te₆₅)_1?x–(SnI₂)_x (x = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15) chalcogenide glasses have been prepared. The amorphous nature can be confirmed by XRD and SEM. With the SnI₂ content increasing, the indirect optical band gaps are decreased from 0.662 to 0.622 eV according to Tauc laws. The introduction of SnI₂ makes the glasses much easier to prepare and more stable against crystallization, making them drawable as optical fibers. The highest ΔT (130 °C) value for (Ge₂₀Se₁₅Te₆₅)_0.9–(SnI₂)_0.1 glass composition can be obtained. A slight red-shifting of the long-wavelength cutting-off edge from 18.4 to 19.4 μm was shown and it seems that SnI₂ in these glasses offers the improvement in the far-infrared properties.     

Numerical analysis of the As2Se3 chalcogenide glass multi-ring photonic crystal fiber

A novel kind of As₂Se₃ chalcogenide glass multi-ring photonic crystal fiber is proposed. The characteristics of multi-ring photonic crystal fiber have been studied by the finite element method. Compared with another two kinds of single-core photonic crystal fibers, the multi-ring PCF can make the perfect combination of the effective mode area, the nonlinearity coefficient and multi-zero dispersion. It can achieve high power supercontinuum generation in middle infrared band; It also can be used in high-power pulsed laser fiber amplifier and high-power ultra-short pulse laser transmission in far infrared band.     

A remark on the Abel’s and Dirichlet’s criterions concerning generalizations to monotonicity

The Abel’s and Dirichlet’s criterions for convergence of series in analysis are very basic classical results and both require the monotonicity condition. In this note we show that the monotonicity condition in these criterions can be generalized to RBV condition, while cannot be generalized to quasimonotonicity.     

An explicit solution of the large deformation of a cantilever beam under point load at the free tip

The large deformation of a cantilever beam under point load at the free tip is investigated by an analytic method, namely the homotopy analysis method (HAM). The explicit analytic formulas for the rotation angle at the free tip are given, which provide a convenient and straightforward approach to calculate the vertical and horizontal displacements of a cantilever beam with large deformation. These explicit formulas are valid for most practical problems, thus providing a useful reference for engineering applications. The corresponding Mathematica code is given in the Appendix.     

Self-assembly of well-ordered and highly uniform nanoripples induced by focused ion beam

Well-ordered and highly uniform nanoripple structures on the surface of single crystal LaAlO₃ (1 0 0), SrTiO₃ (1 0 0) and Al₂O₃ (0 0 0 1) were formed via self-assembly (not by beam writing) by focused ion-beam bombardment. The morphology and topography of nanoripple structures were characterized using in-situ focused ion-beam/scanning electron microscope, as well as ex-situ atomic force microscopy. Under off-normal bombardment without sample rotation, the characteristic wavelength of nanoripples varying from 248 to 395 nm on the LaAlO₃ (1 0 0) surface can be obtained by changing ion fluence and incident angle. When all sputtering parameters except the ion fluence are constant, the wavelength of nanoripples is increased with the enhanced ion fluence. These results demonstrate the potential application of using ion sputtering method for fabricating the well-ordered and highly uniform nanoripples which can be used in nanodevices.     

东海区海岸带景观格局变化对生态系统服务价值的影响
