Linear polarization conversion of transmitted terahertz wave with double-layer meta-grating surfaces

In this Letter, we demonstrate a linear polarization conversion of transmitted terahertz wave with double-layer meta-grating surfaces, which integrated the frequency selectivity of a split ring resonator metasurface and the polarization selectivity of a metallic grating surface. Since the double-layer can reduce the loss, and the Fabry–Perot like resonant effect between the two layers can improve the conversion efficiency, this converter can rotate the incident y-polarized terahertz wave into an x-polarized transmitted wave with relatively low loss and high efficiency. Experimental results show that an average conversion efficiency exceeding 75% from 0.25 to 0.65 THz with the highest efficiency of 90% at 0.43 THz with only-2 dB loss has been achieved.     

基于集合卡尔曼变换的东中国海声学 敏感区判定方法*

为改善海洋与水声环境预报质量,针对常规观测成本高、资料利用率低等问题,将适应性观测方法应用于海洋声学领域。结合海洋-声学耦合模式与集合卡尔曼转换敏感区诊断方法,以东中国海宫古海峡北部区域为验证区,计算并分析不同条件下海洋环境敏感区与声学敏感区分布,通过观测系统模拟试验验证适应性观测对验证区预报的提升效果。结果表明,两种敏感区位置随时间间隔增加均向验证区上游移动,海洋环境敏感区相比于声学敏感区分布更为集中,且平移特征更明显;对海洋环境敏感区和声学敏感区添加适应性观测均能提升海洋与水声环境的预报质量,提升效果随时间间隔增加而减小,在某种类型敏感区的适应性观测对相对应参数的预报质量提升效果优于对其他类型敏感区进行观测的效果。

Coherent Scattering of Light by Bose-Einstein Condensation in a Tight Confinement

We have observed strong scattering of a probe light by dilute Bose-Einstein condensate （BEC） ^87Rb gas in a tight magnetic trap. The scattering light forms fringes at the image plane. It is found that we can infer the real size of the condensation and the number of the atoms by modelling the imaging system. We present a quantitative calculation of light scattering by the condensed atoms. The calculation shows that the experimental results agree well with the prediction of the generalized diffraction theory, and thus we can directly observe the phase transition of BEC in a tight trap.     

（Ti,Al）N Film on Normalized T8 Carbon Tool Steel Prepared by Pulsed High Energy Density Plasma Technique

Under optimized operating parameters, a hard and wear resistant （Ti,Al）N film is prepared on a normalized T8 carbon tool steel substrate by using pulsed high energy density plasma technique. Microstructure and composition of the film are analysed by x-ray diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Auger electron spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Hardness profile and tribological properties of the film are tested with nano- indenter and ring-on-ring wear tester, respectively. The tested results show that the microstructure of the film is dense ahd uniform and is mainly composed of （Ti,Al）N and A1N hard phases. A wide transition interface exists between the film and the normalized T8 carbon tool steel substrate. Thickness of the film is about lO00nm and mean hardness value of the film is about 26 GPa. Under dry sliding wear test conditions, relative wear resistance of the （Ti, Al）N film is approximately 9 times higher than that of the hardened T8 carbon tool steel reference sample. Meanwhile, the （Ti,Al）N film has low and stable friction coefficient compared with the hardened T8 carbon tool steel reference sample.     

Modified Woods-Saxon Potential for Heavy-Ion Fusion Reaction

A modified Woods-Saxon （MWS） potential is proposed for describing nucleus-nucleus interaction based on the Skyrme energy-density functional approach. Fusion barriers for a large number of fusion reactions from light to heavy systems can be described well with this potential. The suitable incident energies for fusion reactions leading to superheavy nuclei are also explored. It seems to us that the MWS potential is useful for selecting the suitable incident energies for fusion reactions for producing super-heavy nuclei.     

Ordered InAs Quantum Dots with Controllable Periods Grown on Stripe-Patterned GaAs Substrates

GaAs （001） substrates are patterned by electron beam lithography and wet chemical etching to control the nucleation of lnAs quantum dots （QDs）. InAs dots are grown on the stripe-patterned substrates by solid source molecular beam epitaxy. A thick buffer layer is deposited on the strip pattern before the deposition of InAs. To enhance the surface diffusion length of the In atoms, InAs is deposited with low growth rate and low As pressure. The AFM images show that distinct one-dimensionally ordered InAs QDs with homogeneous size distribution are created, and the QDs preferentiMly nucleate along the trench. With the increasing amount of deposited InAs and the spacing of the trenches, a number of QDs are formed beside the trenches. The distribution of additional QDs is long-range ordered, always along the trenchs rather than across the spacing regions.     

Surface modification of polytetrafluoroethylene film using single liquid electrode atmospheric- pressure glow discharge

Polytetrafluoroethylene films are treated by room temperature helium atmospheric pressure plasma plumes, which are generated with a home-made single liquid electrode plasma device. After plasma treatment, the water contact angle of polytetrafluoroethylene film drops from 114°to 46°and the surface free energy increases from 22.0 mJ/m2 to 59.1 mJ/m2. The optical emission spectrum indicates that there are reactive species such as O2+ , O and He in the plasma plume. After plasma treatment, a highly crosslinking structure is formed on the film surface and the oxygen element is incorporated into the film surface in the forms of -C-O-C-, -C=O, and -O-C=O groups. Over a period of 10 days, the contact angle of the treated film is recovered by only about 10 , which indicates that the plasma surface modification is stable with time.     

冬季冲绳海域地形及黑潮对声传播的影响

冲绳海域地形复杂且冬季存在较强的黑潮海洋锋,利用数值实验研究斜坡地形和海洋锋同时存在时由浅海至深海的声传播特性。海洋模式数值预报环境数据表明,分布于冲绳海槽斜坡上方的海洋锋导致该海域上层水体声速存在水平变化,纬度越高,水平变化越大。利用抛物方程声场模型计算声传播损失,通过简正模态分析存在表面声道的环境中声能量分布,利用声线轨迹图解释海底斜坡和海洋锋对声传播的影响。结果表明:声源频率低于表面声道截止频率时,声传播主要受海底地形影响;声源频率高于表面声道截止频率时,位于表面声道内的声源激发的声能量主要在表面声道传播,部分声能量从表面声道泄漏沿斜坡向深海传播,位于表面声道深度以下的声源激发的声能量主要沿斜坡向深海传播,斜坡地形导致表面声道下方至共轭深度这一深度范围呈现为声影区,海洋锋的存在可导致表面声道传播损失变化明显,影响程度与声源深度有关。
