Effect of speed fluctuations on a green-light path in a 2d traffic network controlled by signals

When a vehicle moves through a series of green lights, avoiding red signals in a two-dimensional (2d) city traffic network, the vehicle describes a characteristic trajectory (green-light path) and the travel time has a minimal value. The green-light path depends on the cycle time, split, signal-control strategy, and fluctuations of vehicular speed. We clarify the effect of speed fluctuations on a green-light path in a 2d traffic network controlled by signals. Even if an extremely small quantity of speed fluctuation is added, the green-light path changes greatly. It is shown that the root-mean square (RMS) of the deviation from the mean path depends highly on the cycle time. Also, the dependence of the green-light path on the speed-fluctuation strength is shown under a constant value of cycle time.     

Stable 120-mW green output tunable over 2 THz by a second-harmonic generation process in a KTP crystal at room temperature

We report on 120-mW directly measured cw power at 532 nm from a tunable alpha -distributed-feedback laser diode near 1.064 microm frequency doubled in a KTP crystal operating room temperature inside a ring cavity. Our experimental setup allows us to scan frequencies up to 2 THz in the green-light domain and thus is extremely useful for iodine spectroscopy. We show good agreement between experimental results and theoretical predictions for the second-harmonic generation process.     

Efficient green-light generation by proton-exchanged periodically poled MgO:LiNbO3 ridge waveguide

Efficient cw 532?nm green-light generation is demonstrated using a periodically poled MgO:LiNbO3 ridge waveguide prepared by a process that combines annealed proton exchange and precise dicing. Performance of waveguides with different widths has been investigated. The 6-μm-wide, 1.6-cm-long uncoated ridge waveguide has achieved a green output power of 127?mW under a coupled fundamental light power of 250?mW. The highest conversion efficiency achieved is 53%.     

Green-light paths in city traffic controlled by signals

When a vehicle moves through a series of green lights with avoiding red signals in the traffic network, the travel time has a minimal value and the vehicle draws a characteristic trajectory. We study the trajectories (green-light paths) of a vehicle for various values of both cycle time and split at the synchronized and random-phase strategies. The trajectory depends highly on both signal's characteristics and control strategy. We clarify the dependence of green-light paths on both cycle time and split. At the random phase strategy, the vehicle draws a trajectory of the random walk. It is shown where the vehicle arrives if a driver selects the green-light path.

搭建了基于波前像差的神经对比敏感度测定系统,利用Hartman-Shack波前像差传感器测量人眼波前像差,以及高空间频率的对比敏感度测量仪测量全视觉对比敏感度函数,进而得到人眼的神经对比敏感度.和传统激光干涉方法测量神经对比敏感度相比较,本文的测定方法,避免了激光干涉所产生的相干噪音和激光散斑不利因素,并且可以得到白光神经对比敏感度NCSF.对不同人眼分别对绿光和白光视网膜神经对比敏感度进行了测定,测试结果表明：在同等亮度下,绿光的神经对比敏感度远高于白光神经对比敏感度|绿光和白光的对比敏感度曲线的最大值出现在空间频率为8 c/deg附近,而其神经对比敏感度曲线的最大值出现在相对高一些12 c/deg附近的空间频率上.     

增益介质位置对腔外倍频效率的影响

采用MgO掺杂的周期性极化铌酸锂晶体作为非线性晶体,搭建了线性平-凹腔结构的外腔式倍频系统,分析了增益介质和输入耦合镜之间的距离对二次谐波转换效率的影响。实验中,使用光纤耦合二极管泵浦Nd: YVO₄激光器作为基频光源,通过改变增益介质和输入耦合镜的间距,测量了激光器的纵模数量、锁模脉冲稳定性、基频光线宽以及光-光转换效率。实验结果显示,增加增益介质和输入耦合镜之间的距离,可以在一定程度上提升自锁模脉冲的稳定性并有效减小基频光线宽。当泵浦功率较高时,适当增加该间距可以有效提升二次谐波转换效率。

Two peaks observed in the electroluminescence spectra of Alq3-based OLEDs

Tris(8-hydroxyquinolato) aluminum (Alq₃)-based organic light-emitting diodes were fabricated with or without using a hole transport layer (HTL). As a conventional device, the ITO/Alq₃/Mg-Ag device yielded a green-light emission with a single peak at 525 nm in the electroluminescence (EL) spectrum. In contrast, two sub-peaks were observed in the EL spectrum of some ITO/HTL/Alq₃/Mg-Ag devices. This difference was tentatively explained by comparing EL with the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum reported in the literature.

Demonstration of long-term reliability of a 266-nm, continuous-wave, frequency-quadrupled solid-state laser using beta-BaB(2)O(4)

We report what we believe to be the first operation of more than 1000 h of a 266-nm (cw) frequency-quadrupled solid-state laser with a 100-mW output. We used beta-BaB(2)O(4)(BBO) crystal grown by the Czochralski method to double the green-light (532-nm) wavelength, using an external resonant cavity. The green light was generated with an intracavity frequency-doubled Nd:YVO(4)laser pumped by a 4-W laser diode. When the incident 532-nm power on the external resonant doubler was 500 mW, we generated 100 mW of cw 266-nm radiation with the BBO crystal. The degradation rate seems to be proportional to the strength of the UV optical electric field. We also obtained a relative intensity noise of -130dB/Hz at frequencies of 2 to 10 MHz for 266-nm laser light.     

p型氮化镓的低温生长及发光二极管器件的研究

采用金属有机物化学气相淀积技术(MOCVD)在蓝宝石衬底上低温(870—980℃)生长p型氮化镓 (p-GaN).用Hall测试仪测量材料的电学性能，发现当温度低于900℃时，材料的电阻率较高 ；在900—980℃均可获得导电性能良好的p-GaN.另外，电导性能除与掺杂浓度有关，还与p- GaN生长条件有关，氮镓摩尔比过低导电性能就较差，过高则会引起表面粗糙.采用优化后的 p-GaN制作了绿光发光二极管器件，发现生长温度越低器件发光强度越高，反向电压也越高 ，但正向电压只是略有升高. 关键词： Ⅲ-Ⅴ族半导体 氮化镓 发光二极管 金属有机物化学气相淀积     

Piezoelectric/electroluminescent composites for low voltage input flat-panel display devices

In the present work, we report enhanced electro-mechano-optical conversion in piezoelectric/electroluminescent composites, composed of ZnS-type electroluminescence phosphor (doped with Cu, Cl, Mn) placed adjacent to a single-crystal piezoelectric transformer. The effect originates from the combined functions of electroluminescent characteristics and amplified piezoelectric effects. The composites can realize a comparatively low exciting voltage of 2 V rms to start electroluminescence in various materials. Through the naked eye strong green-light emission can be seen under an input voltage of 4.95 V rms. We can easily control the emission brightness by adjusting the driving frequency due to the resonating characteristics of the piezoelectric transformer. This provides a promising path for us to fabricate multiple function composites. PACS 77.84.-s; 77.84.Lf; 77.65.-j; 78.60.Fi; 77.65.Fs     

Effect of zinc sources on the morphology of ZnO nanostructures and their photoluminescence properties

The morphology and photoluminescence properties of ZnO nanostructures synthesized from deferent zinc sources by a vapor deposition process were investigated. The zinc sources involved pure zinc, ZnO, and ZnCO₃ powders, respectively. It was found that the zinc sources have a strong effect on the morphology of the ZnO nanostructures. For the pure zinc and ZnO sources, uniform ZnO nanowires and tetrapods are obtained, respectively. However, in the case of the ZnCO₃ source, the products are nanowire–tetrapod combined nanostructures, in which ZnO nanowires grow from the ends of tetrapod arms. The morphology differences of these products may be mainly concerned with the yield and constituents of the corresponding zinc vapor. Photoluminescence measurements show that the nanowires have a relatively stronger near-band UV emission than the other products. The strongest green-light emission from the tetrapods implies that more defects exist in the tetrapods. An evident peak at 430 nm is found in the spectrum of the nanowire–tetrapod combined nanostructures, which may be caused by oxygen-depletion interface traps. PACS 73.61.Tm; 81.10.Bk; 78.55.Et     

Compact Two-Color Pr3+-Doped ZBLAN Fiber Lasers

Two-color laser simultaneous oscillation in compact trivalent praseodymium ion (Pr³⁺)-doped ZrF₄-BaF₂-LaF₃-AlF₃-NaF (ZBLAN) fiber lasers is investigated. Fiber pigtails by coating high-reflective visible dielectric films are utilized as fiber mirrors (FMs) to construct compact all-fiber laser cavity. Reflectance/transmittance of FMs is intentionally designed to balance net gains and reduce gain competition of different lasable wavelengths in the constructed fiber lasers. By using two selected FMs with high reflectivity at green-light and low reflectivity at red-light, simultaneous green and red laser emission in all-fiber Pr³⁺-doped ZBLAN fiber laser is obtained. Moreover, simultaneous orange and red laser emission is also achieved with another selected FM of high reflectivity at orange-light and low reflectivity at red-light. Our work will provide an effective and easy method to construct compact special fiber (e.g.,ZBLAN fiber, chalcogenide fiber) lasers.     

Physical and Optical Properties of Calcium Zinc Borophosphate Glasses Doped with Manganese Ions

This article reports on the physical and optical properties, absorption, and luminescence spectra in the visible region, of calcium zinc borophosphate glasses doped with manganese ions. The manganese composition was varied up to 10 mol%. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of the luminescence properties when the glasses were doped with different compositions of manganese ions. X-ray diffraction profiles confirmed their glassy nature. The optical absorption spectrum showed bands characteristic of manganese ions in octahedral symmetry. Both excitation and emission spectra were recorded for these glasses to understand their optical performances. The emission spectrum showed a single broad band (green region) in octahedral symmetry at 582 nm as a result of transition from the upper ⁴T_1g state to the ⁶A_1g ground state of manganese ions. As the concentration of manganese ions increased, the emission band increased from 582 nm (green-light emission) to 650 nm (red-light emission). Apart from the spectral analysis, different physical properties of these glasses were also analyzed. Based on the physical and optical properties, we found the samples to be more promising for their use as novel luminescent optical materials.     

Ir配合物染料调节有机发光二极管发光特性

为了研究有机发光二极管(OLED)中发光特性与材料能带结构的关系,把不同的Ir配合物染料掺杂到结构相同的OLED器件中。OLED结构为ITO/NPB/CBP∶染料/TPBi/Mg∶Ag/Ag,染料分别为Ir(MDQ)2(acac)、Ir(ppy)3和Firpic。实验表明,这3种染料对应的掺杂器件分别发红光、绿光和蓝光。3个器件的阈值电压基本一致((6为了研究有机发光二极管(OLED)中发光特性与材料能带结构的关系,把不同的Ir配合物染料掺杂到结构相同的OLED器件中。OLED结构为ITO/NPB/CBP:染料/TPBi/Mg:Ag/Ag,染料分别为Ir(MDQ)₂(acac)、Ir(ppy)₃和Firpic。实验表明,这3种染料对应的掺杂器件分别发红光、绿光和蓝光。3个器件的阈值电压基本一致((6±0.1) V),但是,在100 cd/m²亮度下,绿光器件外量子效率最高(7.64%),蓝光器件外量子效率(5.65%)与绿光相近,红光器件外量子效率最低(2.75%)。分析认为,由于染料的掺杂浓度低,器件结构和载流子传输特性变化小,因而掺杂对阈值电压影响小;CBP与掺杂染料间存在能量转移,红色染料能级差小,非辐射跃迁几率大,发光效率最低;相比于绿光,蓝色染料能级差大,跃迁几率小,因此发光效率比绿光低。实验还发现,染料的发光波长与其能级差相比有红移现象,分析认为,这是由激发态能量振动弛豫和系间窜越过程形成的。     

Strong green luminescence of Ni2+-doped ZnS nanocrystals

ZnS nanoparticles doped with Ni²⁺ have been obtained by chemical co-precipitation from homogeneous solutions of zinc and nickel salt compounds, with S^2- as precipitating anion, formed by decomposition of thioacetamide (TAA). The average size of particles doped with different mole ratios, estimated from the Debye–Scherrer formula, is about 2–2.5 nm. The nanoparticles could be doped with nickel during synthesis without altering the X-ray diffraction pattern. A Hitachi M-850 fluorescence spectrophotometer reveals the emission spectra of samples. The absorption spectra show that the excitation spectra of Ni-doped ZnS nanocrystallites are almost the same as those of pure ZnS nanocrystallites (λ_ex=308–310 nm). Because a Ni²⁺ luminescent center is formed in ZnS nanocrystallites, the photoluminescence intensity increases with the amount of ZnS nanoparticles doped with Ni²⁺. Stronger and stable green-light emission (520 nm) (its intensity is about two times that of pure ZnS nanoparticles) has been observed from ZnS nanoparticles doped with Ni²⁺.

Investigation of 515 nm green-light emission for full color emission LaAlO3 phosphor with varied valence Eu

Photoluminescence and lifetime decay properties of varied valence Eu were employed to investigate the luminescence mechanism of green-light emission positioned at ∼515 nm for full color emission LaAlO₃ phosphor co-doped with Eu²⁺ and Eu³⁺. The enhanced ⁵D₂→⁷F₃ transition emission of Eu³⁺ was assigned for this green emission. Energy transfer between Eu²⁺ and ⁵D₂ level of Eu³⁺ was proposed, which results in the enhancement of ⁵D₂→⁷F₃ transition emission. In addition, energy transfer relations between host-Eu and charge transfer state (CTS)-Eu were also discussed associated with the PLE spectra and band schemes.

Generation of Monodisperse Micron‐Sized Droplets using Free Adjustable Signals

This paper describes the generation of small water droplets in the size range down to a few microns. Commercially available inkjet printing devices are not suitable for producing such droplets since they produce satellite droplets. Furthermore, standard drop‐on‐demand devices are normally restricted to the generation of droplets with the same size as the orifice diameter. Using a new and more sophisticated computer‐based signal generation system, smaller‐sized droplets can be generated from the same orifice. A key feature of the design is the generation of freely definable pulses. This enables the generation of acoustic modes within the fluid of the droplet generator, which leads to the generation of droplets without satellites. Only very few pulse forms enable the generation of suitable acoustic modes. Therefore, it is necessary to look for the specific pulse corresponding to the chosen droplet generator. Flexible pulse form generation appears to be more suitable than simple pulse forms for the generation of such droplets.
