左手材料平板对傍轴高斯光束聚焦特性分析

在傍轴近似下,推导出了左手材料平板聚焦系统的传输矩阵,并利用ABCD定律得到了高斯光束在左手材料中和经过平板透镜聚焦后的传输公式。高斯光束在左手材料内部和像空间的传输公式的研究表明:像高斯光束和物高斯光束束腰大小一致,即左手材料平板透镜实际上对高斯光束没有聚焦作用。研究同时表明左手材料平板对高斯光束的聚焦与几何光学成像规律完全一致,而不存在一般透镜聚焦时的焦移效应。     

Compact multiband left-handed metamaterial at terahertz frequencies

We design and analyze a novel multiband left-handed metamaterial based on a fishnet-like structure at terahertz (THz) frequencies.The metamaterial exhibits simultaneous negative refractions around the frequencies of 0.48,1.05,and 1.19 THz for the electromagnetic (EM) wave normal incidence,and around the frequencies of 0.20,0.79,and 1.13 THz for parallel incidence.The simulated results verify the left-handed properties.A particularly important observation is the capability of the proposed metamaterial with a single geometrical structure to display multifrequency operations in a unit cell.The compact metamaterial is a major step toward the miniaturization of THz materials and devices suitable for multifrequencies.     

The anomalous radiation force of light on a left-handed material

This paper derives the force of the electromagnetic radiation on left-handed materials (LHMs) by a direct applica-tion of the Lorentz law of classical electrodynamics.The expressions of radiation force are given for TE-polarised and TM-polarised fields.The numerical results demonstrate that electromagnetic waves exert an inverse lateral radiation force on each edge of the beams,that is,the lateral pressure is expansive for TE-polarised beams and compressive for TM-polarised beams.The investigation of the radiation force will provide insights into the fundamental properties of LHMs and will provide to better understanding of the interaction of light with LHMs.     

Preparation of W State with Superconducting Quantum-Interference Devices in a Cavity via Adiabatic Passage

We propose an alternative scheme to prepare W state by using superconducting quantum-interference devices （SQUIDs） coupled to a largely-detuned cavity. The present scheme is based on evolution by adiabatic passage, where only by tuning adiabatically the Rabi frequencies of the classical microwave pulses we can obtain the standard W state without measurement or any auxiliary SQUIDs. Thus the procedure is simplified and the scheme can be achieved with very high success probability since the errors in dynamical or geometric ways can be avoided. In addition, the SQUID system and the cavity have no probability of being excited state. Thus decoherence caused by the excited-level spontaneous emission or the cavity decay is suppressed.     

Superscattering of Underwater Sound via Deep Learning Approach

We design a multilayer cylindrical structure to realize superscattering of underwater sound. Because of the near degeneracy of resonances in multiple channels of the structure, the scattering contributions from these resonances can overlap to break the single-channel limit of subwavelength objects. However, tuning the design parameters to achieve the target response is an optimization process that is tedious and time-consuming. Here,we demonstrate that a well-trained tandem neural network can de...
