Efficient generation of a photon pair in a bulk periodically poled potassium titanyl phosphate

In this report, we demonstrate the efficient generation of collinearly propagating photon pairs in a bulk periodically poled potassium titanyl phosphate pumped by a cw laser. The detected coincidence counts are more than 7400/s with 3.58 mW pump power in a Hanbury-Brown-Twiss-type experiment. The estimated photon pair production rate is about 0.73 MHz/mW. This is very promising for some applications, such as quantum key distribution, proof of the Bell-inequality, preparation of single photon states in broadband wave packets, Franson-type interference and so on.     

Design of Enhanced Catalysts by Coupling of Noble Metals (Au,Ag) with Semiconductor SnO2 for Catalytic Reduction of 4‐Nitrophenol

The reduction of 4‐nitrophenol (Nip) into 4‐aminophenol (Amp) by NaBH₄, which is catalyzed by both binary and ternary yolk–shell noble‐metal/SnO₂ heterostructures, is reported. The binary heterostructures contain individual Au or Ag nanoparticles (NPs) and the ternary heterostructures contain both Au and Ag NPs. The Au@SnO₂ yolk–shell NPs are synthesized via a silica seeds‐mediated hydrothermal method. Subsequently, the Au@SnO₂@Ag and Au@SnO₂@Au yolk–shell–shell (YSS) NPs are synthesized, whereby SnO₂ is located between the Au and Ag NPs. The morphology, composition, and optical properties of the as‐prepared samples are analyzed. For the binary heterostructures, the rate of the reduction reaction increases with decreasing particle size. The catalytic results demonstrate the synergistic effect of Au and Ag in the ternary metal–semiconductor heterostructures, which is beneficial to the catalytic reduction of Nip into Amp. Both the binary and ternary heterostructures exhibit significantly better catalytic performances than the corresponding bare Au and Ag NPs. It is envisaged that the current synthesized strategy will promote further interest in the field of bimetal NP‐based catalysis.     

低温退火的X射线W/Si多层膜应力和结构性能

W/Si多层膜反射镜在硬X射线天文望远镜中有重要应用. 为减小其应力对反射镜面形和望远镜分辨率的影响, 同时保证较高的反射率, 采用150, 175和200 ℃ 的低温退火工艺对采用磁控溅射镀制的W/Si周期多层膜进行后处理. 利用掠入射X射线反射测试和样品表面面形测试对退火前后W/Si多层膜的应力和结构进行表征. 结果表明, 在150 ℃ 退火3 h 后, 多层膜1级峰反射率和膜层结构几乎没有发生变化, 应力减少约27%; 在175 ℃ 退火3 h后, 多层膜膜层结构开始发生变化, 应力减少约50%; 在200 ℃退火3 h 后, 多层膜应力减小超过60%, 但1级布拉格峰反射率相对下降17%, 且膜层结构发生了较大变化. W, Si界面层的增大和相互扩散加剧是应力和反射率下降的主要原因.     

The effects of Si3N4 interlayer on the thermal stability and hardness of Ti/TiNx (x = 0.5-1) nanolayered coatings

The polycrystalline Ti/TiN_x multilayer films were deposited by magnetron sputtering, and the as-deposited multilayer coatings were annealed at 500-800 °C for 2-4 h in vacuum. We investigated the effects of annealing temperature and annealing time on the microstructural, interfacial, and mechanical properties of the polycrystalline Ti/TiN_x multilayer films. It was found that the hardness increased with annealing temperature. This hardness enhancement was probably caused by the preferred crystalline orientation TiN(1 1 1). The X-ray reflectivity measurements showed that the layer structure of the coatings could be maintained after annealing at 500 °C and the addition of the Si₃N₄ interlayer to Ti/TiN_x multilayer could improve the thermal stability to 800 °C.     

无光滤波六倍频微波信号产生的系统设计

基于两个级联偏振调制器,提出了一种高频谱纯度、稳定的六倍频微波信号产生方法。该方法通过适当调整偏振片的偏振方向、射频驱动信号电压和相位,实现无光滤波器条件下、任何波段六倍频微波信号的产生。利用Optisystem平台搭建的仿真系统,以S波段4 GHz信号为例,验证了该设计系统产生的六倍频信号质量,并分析了非理想射频驱动电压和相位对六倍频信号质量的影响,结果表明：该设计系统能产生最大光边带抑制比、射频无杂散抑制比分别为21.3,15.2 dB的六倍频微波信号;且非理想驱动电压和相位差的偏离应控制在理想值5%的范围之内。     

Two-dimensional relativistic electromagnetic dromion-like soliton in a cold transparent plasma

By using a standard multiple scale method, a Davey--Stewartson (DS) equation has been derived and also applied to a multi-dimensional analytical investigation on the interaction of an ultra-intense laser pulse with a cold unmagnetized transparent electron-ion plasma. The regions of instability are found by considering the modulation instability of a plane wave solution of the DS equation. The DS equation is just of the Davey--Stewartson 1 (DS1) type and admits a dromion solution, i.e. a two-dimensional (2D) dromion soliton decaying exponentially in all spatial directions. A 2D relativistic electromagnetic dromion-like soliton (2D REDLS) is derived for a vector potential.
