In situ observation of NaBi(WO4)2 dendrite growth and the study on microstructure of solidification

The dendrite growth process of transparent NaBi(WO₄)₂ with small prandtl and high melting point was studied by using the in-situ observation system. According to the dynamic images and detailed information, there are two kinds of restriction effect on the dendrite growth, the competition between arms and branches and the convection in the melt. The dendrite growth rate was time dependent, and the rate of arm growth reached the maximum 5.8 mm/s in the diffusive-advective region and rapidly decreased in the diffusive-convective region. The growth rate of branch had the same change trends as the arm’s. Based on the EPMA-EDS data of solidification structure of quenched NaBi(WO₄)₂ melt, it was found that there were component differences from stoichiometric concentration in the melt near the interface during the growth process.

Simplified analytic solutions and a novel fast algorithm for Yb-doped double-clad fiber lasers

In this paper, continuous wave Yb³⁺-doped double-clad fiber lasers (DCFLs) with linear-cavity are investigated theoretically and numerically using the rate equations. Under the steady state conditions, the simplified analytic solutions of Yb³⁺-doped DCFLs under considering the scattering loss are deduced in the strongly pump condition. Compared with the known analytic solutions in published literatures, our analytic solutions are more accurate, especially, at higher reflectivity of output mirror. In addition, a fast and stable algorithm based on the Newton-Raphson method is proposed to simulate numerically Yb³⁺-doped DCFLs. The results by simplified analytic solutions are in good agreement with those by the numerical simulation. Moreover, we have performed the optimization of an Yb³⁺-doped DCFL using the simplified analytic solutions and the numerical simulations, respectively.     

A competitive algorithm in searching for many edges in a hypergraph

We give a competitive algorithm to identify all d defective edges in a hypergraph with d unknown. Damaschke did the d=1 case for 2-graphs, Triesch extended the d=1 case to r-graphs, and Johann did the general d case for 2-graphs. So ours is the first attempt to solve the searching for defective edges problem in its full generality. Further, all the above three papers assumed d known. We give a competitive algorithm where d is unknown.     

LARGE-SIGNAL SIMULATIONS OF A GYROTRON TRAVELING-WAVE AMPLIFIER WITH A MODE-SELECTIVE INTERACTION CIRCUIT

A self-consistent nonlinear theory is used to analyze the saturated performances of a Ka-band gyrotron traveling wave amplifier (gyro-TWA) operating at the fundamental with a mode-selective interaction circuit involving a tapered vane-slot mode converter. The amplifier is predicted to generate 140 kW saturated output power with 33.3% efficiency, a saturated gain of 33dB, and a 3dB bandwidth of 2.7 GHz (8%) for a 70 kV, 6A electron beam with a velocity ratio of 1.0 and an axial velocity spread of 5%.

一维光子晶体缺陷模激光器的放大特性

光子晶体中引入缺陷后将形成缺陷模,这些缺陷模在增益介质中将被放大形成激光。基于麦克斯韦方程和速率方程相结合的模型,用时域有限差分法(FDTD)计算和分析了一维单缺陷光子晶体激光器中缺陷模的空间分布和频谱特性,以及这些缺陷模的放大特性,主要研究了缺陷层的厚度、晶体层数对缺陷模放大特性的影响。模拟结果显示,类似于传统激光腔的腔模,这些缺陷模能够被放大,形成激光。调整缺陷层的厚度、晶体层数等结构参量,将改变缺陷模的谐振,激射频率以及空间分布,这将直接影响激射阈值和饱和特性。增加晶体的层数,激光器的阈值将降低,饱和值将增加,但晶体层数增加到一定限度时,这种增减趋势变弱。模拟结果证明了有效层数的存在。     

Studies on the method of total synthesis of koumine: I. 4-Substituted 1,2-dihydropyridine derivatives and their function as a conjugated diene in Diels-Alder reaction

A route to the total synthesis of koumine has been suggested. Five 4-substituted 1, 2-d hydropyridine derivatives, which are supposed to be a conjugated diene of Diels-Alder reaction to produce the isoquinuclidine ring of koumine, have been synthesized. Only two of them were found to be able to undergo the Diels-Alder reaction. The stereochemistry of the reaction product has also been examined.     

排列形状及阵列数目对纳米导线阵列场发射性能的影响

为了进一步研究纳米导线阵列的排列形状以及阵列数目对其场发射行为的影响，利用镜像悬浮球模型对正方形以及六边形排列的纳米导线阵列的场发射行为进行计算与模拟，近似的得到纳米导线阵列的场发射增强因子满足如下的变化趋势：β=h/ρ(1/1+W)+1/2(1/1+W)²+3,其中h为纳米导线的高度，ρ为纳米导线的半径，W是以R为自变量的函数，R为纳米导线阵列的间距.结果显示纳米导线阵列的排列形状对其场发射性能的影响较小，而阵列间距则是影响场发射性能的关键因素：当R<R₀时，场发射增强因子随着阵列间距的减小而急剧减小；当R>R₀时，场发射增强因子基本不变，其中R₀为导线阵列场发射的最佳间距.进一步研究表明改变纳米导线阵列的数目基本不会改变阵列的场发射性能随间距的变化趋势，但是随着阵列数目的增加，R₀会有一定程度的减小，场发射增强因子也会降低. 关键词： 纳米导线 场发射 增强因子 阵列数目     

二维随机激光器的模式选择及阈值与饱和特性

基于将Maxwell方程与四能级原子系统速率方程相结合而建立起随机激光时域理论，并利用有限时域差分法，研究了二维随机介质中激光模式的输出特性与介质尺寸、外形及抽运速率等参数的关系.结果表明，与传统激光模式相似，随机激光模式的强度随抽运速率的变化不仅具有阈值特性，而且具有饱和特性.基于模式特性对介质及抽运参数的依赖关系，提出了二维随机激光器的选模方式，在很大程度上不同于传统激光器的选模方式. 关键词： 随机激光器 模式选择 无序介质中的光学特性
