Filament-induced breakdown remote spectroscopy in a polar environment

We demonstrate the feasibility of filament-induced breakdown spectroscopy (FIBS) for remote sensing of solid samples in a polar environment. FIBS spectra from an aluminum target induced by 800-nm laser pulses propagating in air were probed. The air visibility in an open winter field was as low as 3.2 km fluctuating with precipitation, pressure and relative humidity. Under such polar condition, clean spectral Al I lines from an aluminum target located at a distance of 60 m were obtained. This shows the technique FIBS could be potentially useful for sensing remote targets in a variety of polar environments.

Computer simulation of time-resolved optical imaging of objects hidden in turbid media

We review research on time-resolved optical imaging of objects hidden in strongly scattering media, with emphasis on the application to breast cancer detection. A method is presented to simulate the propagation of light in turbid media. Based on a numerical algorithm to solve the time-dependent diffusion equation, the method takes into account spatial variations of the reduced scattering and absorption factors of the medium due to the presence of objects as well as random fluctuations of these factors. It is shown that the simulation method reproduces, without fitting, experimental results on tissue-like phantoms. Using experimental and simulation results, an assessment is made of the reliability for extracting the reduced scattering and absorption coefficients of the medium from time-resolved reflection and transillumination data. The simulation technique is employed to study the conditions for locating mm-sized objects immersed in a turbid medium, by direct, time-resolved imaging. We discuss a simple method to enhance the imaging power of the time-resolved technique. The mathematical justification of the method, as well as some applications to simple problems, is given. The simulation technique is employed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the data processing technique. Results of time-resolved reflection experiments and simulations are presented, showing that the use of the latter allow us to locate 1 mm diameter objects under conditions which would prevent detection otherwise. Our results demonstrate that the combination of simulation and the appropriate processing of the diffusive part of the time-resolved reflected or transmitted light intensity may substantially increase the potential of the time-resolved near-infrared diffusive light imaging technique as a diagnostic tool for breast cancer detection.     

Remote sensing of the atmosphere using ultrashort laser pulses

Theoretical and experimental studies were performed on the propagation of ultrashort optical terawatt pulses through the atmosphere. Propagation simulations of intense sub-picosecond pulses show that non-linear processes, such as white light generation, can be initiated at a chosen distance by selecting an appropriate group velocity dispersion. With this technique, a white light continuum was generated in the atmosphere whose spectral distribution was characterised in the visible and near infra-red. Applications of this novel light source for atmospheric remote sensing were investigated, combining lidar and time-resolved broadband absorption spectroscopy techniques. Measurements were performed on the oxygen molecule and water vapour. A comparison between the experimental results and the tabulated spectroscopic data led to an excellent correlation with measurements made on water vapour whereas observations on the oxygen showed discrepancy. This study demonstrates that the remote generation of a white light source represents a new way to access the range-resolved multi-trace gas analysis in the atmosphere.

Time-resolved DNA-microarray reading by an intensified CCD for ultimate sensitivity

We describe a novel technique for DNA-microarray reading based on time-resolved fluorescence measurements. We used an intensified CCD camera with picosecond resolution to acquire a set of time-delayed fluorescence images from a mutation DNA microarray marked with cyanine 3. We measured the fluorescence lifetimes of the marker and the background separately, and we used this information to calculate the amplitude map of the marker, starting from the time-delayed images. This procedure allowed us to identify hybridized spots that are not visible in fluorescence images acquired with continuous-wave detection.     

Detection of lanthanides and actinides in solutions based on laser-induced luminescence and chemiluminescence

This work is devoted to applications of the time-resolved laser- induced luminescence spectroscopy and time-resolved laser-induced chemiluminescence spectroscopy for detection of lanthanides and actinides. The limit of detection (LOD) of some lanthanides and actinides in solutions by the time-resolved laser luminescence spectroscopy is up to 10^?13 mole/liter. Unfortunately, Pu, Np, and some U compounds do not produce luminescence in solutions, but when excited by laser radiation, they can induce chemiluminescence. The characteristics of chemiluminescence induced by excited lanthanide and actinide complexes in solutions are considered. A key problem of chemiluminescence application for lanthanide and actinide detection in solutions is the increase of the detection selectivity. This problem can be solved by using the multistep schemes of chemiluminescence excitation. It is shown that the time-resolved luminescence laser spectroscopy and chemiluminescence laser spectroscopy can be successfully used for detection of lanthanides and actinides in solutions.     

Effect of the target positions on the rapid identification of aluminum alloys by using filament-induced breakdown spectroscopy combined with machine learning

Filament-induced breakdown spectroscopy (FIBS) combined with machine learning algorithms was used to identify five aluminum alloys. To study the effect of the distance between focusing lens and target surface on the identification accuracy of aluminum alloys, principal component analysis (PCA) combined with support vector machine (SVM) and K-nearest neighbor (KNN) was used. The intensity and intensity ratio of fifteen lines of six elements (Fe, Si, Mg, Cu, Zn, and Mn) in the FIBS spectrum were selected. The distances between the focusing lens and the target surface in the pre-filament, filament, and post-filament were 958 mm, 976 mm, and 1000 mm, respectively. The source data set was fifteen spectral line intensity ratios, and the cumulative interpretation rates of PC1, PC2, and PC3 were 97.22%, 98.17%, and 95.31%, respectively. The first three PCs obtained by PCA were the input variables of SVM and KNN. The identification accuracy of the different positions of focusing lens and target surface was obtained, and the identification accuracy of SVM and KNN in the filament was 100% and 90%, respectively. The source data set of the filament was obtained by PCA for the first three PCs, which were randomly selected as the training set and test set of SVM and KNN in 3:2. The identification accuracy of SVM and KNN was 97.5% and 92.5%, respectively. The research results can provide a reference for the identification of aluminum alloys by FIBS.     

高k栅介质对肖特基源漏超薄体SOI MOSFET性能的影响

研究了高k栅介质对肖特基源漏超薄体SOI MOSFET性能的影响.随着栅介质介电常数增大,肖特基源漏(SBSD) SOI MOSFET的开态电流减小,这表明边缘感应势垒降低效应(FIBL)并不是对势垒产生影响的主要机理.源端附近边缘感应势垒屏蔽效应(FIBS)是SBSD SOI MOSFET开态电流减小的主要原因.同时还发现,源漏与栅是否对准,高k栅介质对器件性能的影响也不相同.如果源漏与栅交叠,高k栅介质与硅衬底之间加入过渡层可以有效地抑制FIBS效应.如果源漏偏离栅,采用高k侧墙并结合堆叠栅结构,可以提高驱动电流.分析结果表明,来自栅极的电力线在介电常数不同的材料界面发生两次折射.根据结构参数的不同可以调节电力线的疏密,从而达到改变势垒高度,调节驱动电流的目的. 关键词： k栅介质')" href="#">高k栅介质 肖特基源漏(SBSD) 边缘感应势垒屏蔽(FIBS) 绝缘衬底上的硅(SOI)

Structural damage detection using cross correlation functions of vibration response

Structural damage detection methods based on vibration responses are appealing for a variety of reasons such as their potential to observe damage from sensors placed remote from an unknown damage site. Of particular interest to the authors is online damage detection in which changes in the structure can be flagged up in an automated fashion by permanently installed transducers. In a previous paper by the authors, the inner product vector (IPV) was proposed as a damage detection algorithm which uses cross correlation functions between response measurements. Implicitly assumed in the formulation is that the response quantity is that of displacement resulting from white noise excitation. In this paper, the IPV technique is first reviewed and then generalised to address velocity and acceleration response to band pass white noise excitation. It is shown that the IPV is a weighted summation of the mode shapes, and the effect of some particular measurement noise on the IPV can be adaptively eliminated in the calculation of IPV. Then, the damage detection method based on changes in the IPV is proposed. Finally, damage detection experiments of shear frame structure, honeycomb sandwich composite beam and aircraft stiffened panel are presented to illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Ultrafast multiplex CARS investigation of vibrational characteristics in chloroform and PMMA

This paper demonstrates the femtosecond time-resolved coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering by using folded BOXCARS geometry where an ultrashort broadband coherent white light continuum was used as Stokes pulse, and carries out the non-contact detection at long distance. The CARS signal is so easy to be detected that it can be seen even by nude eye. The C--H bonds of chloroform or PMMA were detected and the vibration modes belonging to the side chain and the main chain in PMMA were also compared. Their vibrational characteristics involved decay process and quantum beating were discussed. This modified CARS experimental technique could make up the deficiency of traditional CARS technique.     

Biolabeling with nanoparticles based on Y2O3: Nd and luminescence detection in the near-infrared

Neodymium based fluorescence presents several advantages in comparison to conventional rare earth or enzyme-substrate based fluorescence emitting sources (e.g.Tb, HRP) . Based on this fact we have herein explored a Nd-based fluoroimmunoassay. We efficiently detected the presence of an oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) in human plasma a well-known marker for cardiovascular diseases, which causes around 30% of deaths worldwide. Conventional fluoroimmunoassay uses time-resolved luminescence techniques, with detection in the visible range, to eliminate the fluorescence background from the biological specimens. By using an immunoassay based on functionalized Y₂O₃:Nd³⁺ nanoparticles, where the excitation and emission processes in the Nd³⁺ ion occur in the near-infrared (NIR) region, we have succeeded in eliminating the interferences from the biological fluorescence background, avoiding the use of time-resolved techniques. This yields higher emission intensity from the Nd³⁺-nanolabels and efficient detection of anti-oxidized low-density lipoproteins (anti-oxLDL) by Y₂O₃:Nd³⁺-antibody-antigen conjugation, leading to a novel biolabeling method.
